For a user’s phone to be attacked, he or she would have to
be tricked into installing a malicious app onto their handset. No special
permissions are required to install it, and affected phones can be completely
controlled by the hacker. For this to happen, the hacker must successfully
exploit one of the four flaws thus giving him (or her) root access to the
phone. Once that is accomplished, the invader gains access to the camera,
microphone, data and all of the remaining hardware.

Qualcomm was notified about the vulnerabilities – found in
the company’s software drivers – back in April this year. The chipmaker says
that all the bugs were fixed at its end and patches were handed over to
customers. While fix for three vulnerabilities have already made it to recent
Android monthly security updates released by Google, one is still outstanding –
it’ll be be included in the September update.

Using an android phone since ages and no malware as ever affected any of my phones b4 and can't do without rooting. Maybe coz i don't install unknown app. If i must download an app from a website i read reviews b4 downloading. Say safe
I think that is the best form of safety. Read reviews about an app before downloading. There is no law under heaven that says you must download all the applications in playstore.
Alot of people download applications they don't know talk more of using it. #TeamMTK
This is jst a way of collecting ppls information unknowingly to them, prof tell say we Africans don wise-up if den lyk make dem call am qrooter e no concern us oooho

Why dont u download Dr web from Googleplay or u can download the premium version from BlackMart then remove the lincense verification with Luck patcher. then scan ur pnone with it. It will bring out all the threats in ur phone from there u can delete or Uninstall them.
Hello Timroy,
Sorry about what you are passing through… but at thesame time, I don't think the guys you paid 2k to really flashed your phone. If they do, it will clear everything on your device including the test.
Your clone Sony Xperia is probably infected with MonkeyTest Time virus in which the only cure is to flash it. You can try the suggestion above by R^&B, if it doesn't fix it, then you need to properly flash it.
