Galaxy S5 :: Does Phone Have A Virus
Dec 25, 2014
I was doing some browsing the other day using Internet Explorer on my Galaxy S4. All of a sudden a blue screen appeared reading, " A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your Device. The problem seem to be cause by the following file:: mssmbios.sys and pci.sys."
It also has a pop up message that says " Confirm Navigation" , and asks me if i want to stay on the page or leave the page. No matter what option i press, the pop up doesn't go away and it hasn't changed since.

I got a fbi virus downloaded to my phone as an app called "browser update" . I know how to get into safe mode but the app won't delete . Have very important files saved onto my phone and I really don't want to factory reset . Is there any way of deleting this virus ? They're demanding $500 to unlock my phone and I really don't want to do that .

I use twitter and it sometimes brings me websites to look at Web page. I now have a virus. I'm getting pop ups a lot. For example, I will go to look at a text message and a pop up for singles websites or lawyers will pop up. I've never seen this before. How do I get rid of this virus?

For the past week my lumia 1020 has acted VERY odd: battery drain (have to charge it twice a day) it heats up when I'm not using it, Apps open by themselves, tiles on my home screen keep moving around. Every time I open my phone, which is often, a random app has been activated: anything from my calendar to facebook to satnav.

I have a stock non rooted or modded Atrix running up todate firmware. Recently I tried using Astro to try and find a file I had on my phone only to find my phone got stuck in some never ending loop on a folder called thumb2 in the osh directory. After it got to about 2 gigs in size I figured it wasn't going to stop and cancelled the search. I looked in the folder my self only to find it kept looping back onto its self. What is this folder? Did I get some sort of virus or malware on my phone? Would it ruin anything if I deleted the folder seeing how its just keeps looping on it self?

Have a Droid X which will randomly drain its battery in an hour or two due to the com. motorola.blur.service.main consuming 100% of the CPU.I am unable to determine any trigger for this event.On most occasions my only warning of this occurring is that the phone will become very hot due to the CPU load.This event will typically occur every day or every other day.This behavior has occurred with all versions of Gingerbread.It behaved properly on Froyo and Eclair.The first occurrence of this behavior coincided with the original Gingerbread update.Phone is and always has been running a complete stock OS (not rooted).The phone is in perfect condition with no physical damage of any kind.
The process in question and coincidental rapid loss of battery capacity has been verified via SystemPanel.This phone is NOT running any type of automatic/interval task killer, virus scanner, or any other snake-oil type battery improvement software.(SystemPanel is not an automatic task killer, it is simply recording per-process CPU consumption/battery drain at 15 minute intervals).The phone is used almost exclusively for business-related tasks, i.e., as a phone, for email, calendaring, and occasional web browsing.

I have a BB curve 9330 and I think it may have a virus. I made the mistake of downloading Skype and as soon as I did my BB shut down and I have not been able to turn it on since. I bought a new battery thinking that was it but nope. I tried plugging it into my pc for BB desktop and I actually got a blue error screen on my pc. I can't turn it on to make any adjustments.

I downloaded some music the other day from a friends PC & I wasnt aware that I had downloaded a virus as well. Now it has deleted all my pictures/music & videos that where stored on the memory card. Is there anyway to restore/retrieve all the info that has been deleted? I cannot also save pictures to the card so I save it directly to my device instead.

am hoping someone can let me know if you need an anti virus software on your iPhone 4? I have been asked by my work to ensure that I have one but I don't think that one exists or is needed.looking for firm confirmation of this so I can show something official to work to assure them that it is all covered.

I had tried this twice but the result was same.

A few hours back i got a phone call from my female freind who uses a Nokia 60 series. Only problem was She did not call! it was some creep who knew my name and got dc within 20 seconds.There is no record of the call in her mobile. but the service provider we both use logged teh 20 seconds call from her phone. When i told them that she had not made the call from her mobile and there was no such log on her phone. They refused to believe me and were adament that its not possible.After half an hour of useless arguments they simply refused to take my calls!When I called my freind and told her that some1 has been calling from her number without using her SIM. She also cannot believe its possible.Yet the call is logged on my phone n the service providers have also accepted it.I have heard bout viruses that send mass smses but this is the first time I have seen a phone number being used without its owner`s knowledge.More ever all the data on teh sim has also been apparently compromised.Since they knew my name as well.Now according to the service providers this is simply not possible and their system is secure.Is it possible that heckers can actuly take over a phone and gain access to all its data without the owner`s knowledge? I am extremely worried since the potential for crime and terrorism in my country is horrendously high. And with this kind of identity theft the number can be used for black mail extortion kidnapings for ransom even bomb blasts.. all of which are very common in Pakistan.

I wonder if my 8900 has a virus? 2 weeks ago my keypad stopped working all of a sudden (all but the track ball although the clicking down of the trackpad doesn't) Now after reading through some websites, I was convinced it was a hardware fault but I decided that evening to try to back up my data and update the OS. I updated the OS and low and behold, my keypad started working again so obviously not a harware fault but now the keypads gone again and I try reinstalling the software and some of the keys work.... could I have a virus on my BB? is there a virus killer out there for BB?
