HippY Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 there are some but not here download apps only from trusted sites, like google market anyway, a master reset would do nicely her imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*gentlydoesit Posted September 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 (edited) Na, no dodgy porn unfortunatly... that was much earlier i did have a warning once before i opened one of those thumbnails on here, cant remember which one. If only i could do a reset! I went on xda developers and downloaded a newer version of android for my phone (on my daughters laptop) but to install it the phone needs to go on to the boot screen, which it no longer does Got myself a galaxy note now and its the tits Edited September 14, 2013 by f**megently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trialsbikingnunn Posted September 14, 2013 Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 Lookout security is a great anti virus and just general security app for androids. completely free and it allows you to lock your phone and find it via gps if you lose it. such a great app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazza1414 Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 I had a issue with getting viruses every time I tried to watch certain videos(not porn)in this sites gallery. seems to have cleared up now though (touch wood). was a trojan that made the screen white out.I guessed it had something to do with my computer as no one else had mentioned it on the forum.

FamilyBiker Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 (edited) to get to the recovery screen on an andoid device you have to take the battery out,put it back in and start the device by pressing volume down and on/off until the screen appears. rooting your phone does help alot,mines rooted and i can even tell my os not to listen on certain ports and everything Edited September 15, 2013 by FamilyBiker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Cox Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 That gets you to download mode not recovery. Hold up and power button (at same time) for recovery mode. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
