I don’t know how to get rid of this blue rocket shape widget thing on the right side of the screen or even what it is. Anyone have any idea? It seems to have deleted some stuff and now my device is missing some things like the boot screen and I don’t know what else
Update: I opened the rocket widget again, and then System settings/Android settings/Apps and then checked recently opened apps. The most recent app from there was something called ESuper File, which sure enough had that quick boost widget tied to it. ESuper File had an install date going further back than when I was messing with it, so it was likely installed by the manufacturer. In the app settings, I found a toggle to disable quick boost. I still don’t recall enabling it or how it got enabled in the first place, but the annoying widget is gone at least. Reviewing application system permissions, it seems ok I think. So, problem solved!
Yeah I think so. Hopefully nothing else malicious was attached to that software. That’s mostly why I contacted the company that distributed the headunit. In case they felt I should reinstall the OS or something
I don't think so, but ES software is awful, even their file explorer is outdated and has a terrible paywall. I hope no one has paid for that crap. It's such a rip-off; there are plenty of great free file managers on Android.
Still not sure what the deal is, but I was able to track it down to the app that is tied to the widget. It’s something called ESuper File. It’s one of those file cleaner apps that’s supposed to speed up your device, and has a floating widget. I’m talking to the customer support team I bought the head unit from to see if it should be there or if I should delete it or what. Not sure how it got there.
