Wow thanks a lot for the information. Both of my phones are outdated/no longer updated. I guess I should be careful what I install. How would you even know that you're affected? One thing I was was you can have malware that won't go away even flashing I think. You had to do something, as some memory wasn't touched on reformat or something. Man that's crazy, thanks.
- vurpo 10y agoIf a rouge app had root access, it could install a completely undetectable rootkit on the phone. That's why root access is very dangerous -- it means literally unrestricted access to everything on the phone, only limited by the hardware and nothing else.
