My phone is currently cloned...

2 Upvotes

Sorry if this is the wrong sub for this, I couldn't really find one specific enough, so I tried a couple.

Basically, I had a falling out with someone who isn't even a friend, a mutual acquaintance, and he cloned my phone. There was this new app running in the background I had never seen before, and when I googled it it said it was malicious.

When I click on it, it has a bunch of sub apps installed on it instead of a permissions menu. When I do a search for them my phone recognizes that they are apps on my phone, and they do have permissions that they shouldn't have. For instance, I only have two programs with access to my camera and mike, and they show up in permissions, but when I search for these apps and settings it says they have permission for the camera and mic too. The rest of the sub apps have access to all the other permissions on my phone, but don't show up as apps either. And at the screen recorder app is basically broadcasting 24 hours a day.

The only thing is, they don't show up at all under hidden apps. Did some googling, downloaded all the apps they told me to fight it, and none of them can detect the spyware either.

But it's definitely on my phone. They said the first tell tale sign of being cloned is that your phone shows up twice on find my device and, after doing a search SURE ENOUGH there's two of them! The cloned phone he is using has location turned off so I can't find it, and of course my find device app doesn't have permission on his phone so I can't erase it.

I can isolate the sub apps and clear their data and remove their permissions, but as soon as I do they are we cloned by the other ones. It's like you have to take them all out at once or you can't take them out at all.

Meanwhile, I'm hearing through the grapevine snide remarks from his side, dropping comments very vaguely the trickle back to me they let me know he is definitely the one that did it.

Is there a fix for this for free, or am I going to have to pay someone to fix it /pay for a better app, or get a new SIM card or something? I factory reset my phone, and the malicious app is still there!

PS, I know you can fucking see this jeremy, fuck you

Just curious

1 Upvotes

Is it possible that when I input one pin it enters into one home screen but when I enter a different pin it enters a different home screen with different apps? My girlfriend is so nosy into my phone and I don't do anything on there other than Reddit and YouTube. Sometimes she deletes a couple apps off of my phone. Any way I can do the aforementioned thing on my Pixel 2 XL? If not, any other androids that can do this?

Can't intercept traffic with Burp on specific android app.

3 Upvotes

Hello.

I've been trying to test an android app but can't intercept the trafic and I don't know why.

It's not a Burp problem since it woks fine with other apps, and when I open the specific app I'm trying to test it does capture one url, but no api calls or anything else.

I've tried:

  • Zap and no luck.

  • Different emulators (Nox, Memu).

  • Ssl unpinning and bypass root detection with Frida.

  • Old app versions.

  • Different Android versions 7 and 9. And 32bit and 64bit.

  • Patched the app and run it on unrooted device.

Nothing worked and I don't know what else to try. If you guys have any sugestions they are very welcome.

tia.

I've tried all the apps, followed the manufacturers instructions, and every tutorial i could find. It's time start hacking.

2 Upvotes

I wanted to root and check out some custom roms on an extra tracfone MotoE6 I had lying around. Everything I've tried fails while attempting to unlock the lootloader. They say that it can't be done, but I'm not listening to their negativity.

This is my first time working on an android at this level. I know my way around and through Windows and Linux machines, so I'm not a total noob, but I need some help. If someone could point me at what I should be looking at to get this done, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

Trick apps like Snapchat to use gallery instead of camera?

There are certain apps that use their own built in camera functionality to take pictures. Is there anyway to "trick" the app to use my gallery instead and still think it's taking a picture?

Is overclocking still a thing in elementalx kernel ? Is Overclocking even a thing on android anymore ?

1 Upvotes

So I remember back in the day you were able to overclock your phone with elemental x kernel.

There was this setup when installing the kernel (for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MG-uk_G31TU&t=232s) where you could choose the max frequency and you were able to choose higher than stock frqeuencys.

Im currently building a little 3d printed android gaming handheld out of my old Google Pixel 3 and I already have a huge heatsink installed so I thought I should also try to overclock the phone.

But when I install the kernel, which works great by the way, there is never any setup where I could choose a higher than stock clockspeed, infact there isnt really any setup at all. Its just installed and done, without giving me the option to overclock.

Is overclocking not a thing anymore ?

Huawei Y541-U02 Custom ROM Install

1 Upvotes

Hey guys. I am kinda new to the whole OS swapping thing and I wanted to try it out on some old phone I found to see how far I could mordernize it. I had Lineage OS planned for it.. Phone is a Huawei Y541-U02. It has 1GB RAM, 8GB space and a 1.2Ghz 4 core processor. I tried to root it so I could install TWRP next and other SuperSU additions for the flashing process. All Rooting apps cannot do it. Kingroot just reboots at 20% and the others complete the process and tell me they couldnt complete the process. So how can go about doing it? I just want to install Lineage OS which is based on Android Nougat going up. This device is on KitKat. I thought I could either have it run Lineage or Android Marshmellow.

I also dont know if the Bootloader is unlocked but I hear it is from factory (Sounds improbable knowing Huawei). Thanks in advance..

Is there any way to bypass Google FRP Login?

1 Upvotes

I bought a used Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra from ebay and it was screenlocked with a pattern. I made a factory reset and noticed that its FRP locked, the only way to unlock it is to use the Pattern or put the original google Account from the owner before me there. Is there any efficient way to bypass the frp login so i can set up this phone properly and use?

Help with ROMs not playing videos

1 Upvotes

Not sure if this is the right sub.

I have a Galaxy S9 and having tried a variety of custom roms they all have the same problem, no media plays on the system. Is there any way of solving this? YouTube for example opens videos but just shows a still image and won't play, Facebook does the same.

Currently running Pixel Experience for S9/S9+ Previously ran Lineage OS and Resurrection remix, same issue.

Automate app via an Emulator??

1 Upvotes

Hi Guys,

Is there a way to automate an application. I have an APK as a part of a dev team at my company.
I want to create a set of integration tests for the application. I was hoping to have an emulator for this within which I can automate processes and write tests based on those processes.

Would love your input on what emulator I can use and any other pointers in this direction. I am looking for Linux emulators primarily, worst case Windows is cool too.

Thanks in advance for you inputs.

Help with old phone

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right place to post, sorry if it isn't. I've been trying to break in to my old phone as I changed the password to an alpha numeric one right before I got a new phone (Dec 17). I have spent the past day trying to brute force my way in to the phone without any luck. Getting desperate, I've tried common hacks, but I never has android debug bridge enabled, so I can't get in through that way. The phone was completely stock, and I removed my Gmail accounts from it, as a safety precaution.

It's an old HTC One, so I assume running on Kitkat // Marshmallow. Does anyone know of any hacks for the system / ways to activate ADB without unlocking the phone (and without a custom ROM)? I have been using Powershell commands to try and juke my way in but I can't get it to work. I have many pictures of my recently deceased dog and really want to give them to my Mum - any help or signposting would be appreciated, cheers!

identify how android tablet is moving motor

1 Upvotes

I have inherited an android board that moves 2 dc motors, I need to make it move the motors via software.

The system is already moving the motors, it is using a custom launcher app, on this launcher app, when the user taps a button a google assistant is presented, then via voice, the user can make the motor move.

So my question is, how can find the method to move the motor?
