They number more than 20 and their name and extension are squares or symbols as if looking at a document with the wrong encoding. Don't know when they got there but they all belong to system and have creation dates like 1970 and 1994.

Do you know how to get rids of these files or even if they are important? I'm serious, and you are seriously stupid if you are asking if this is a joke.

please provide more information. are you stock out of the box, flashed a rom, did any mods, clicked on a suspicious link either on the web or FB? Kinda hard to help you out with out more information.
in general, I have not heard of anything like this. BUT, if my thoughts serve me right, it sounds like your phone has been compromised.

FLMAO!!! Please tell me how old you are? I cant believe this because its so damn funny, but is this reply the punchline to the late late apr. fools joke??
Don't you think that any reasonable person would have taken the phone back if it came out of box like this?
Did I click on any questionable links in fb or web??? does it make a difference? I still need to get rid of it. It isn't a self replicating virus you dufuss. Its a file.
I love your last line "compromised" lmao. You sound like a government agent with down syndrome thats a character in a elementary school play written, produced, cast, and crew by the schools special ed students dually diagnosed with psychotic diaorders.

This reminds me of many many years ago while working for a call center. Stupid user calls and gives you the worst description possible. Then you wind up having to write a thesis in order to get the information you need because they can't even describe the issue. At least they weren't trying to make changes to the system, they were just using it b/c they were smart enough not to try and modify something they know jack about.
The problem here is ESTO (Equipment Superior To User)

When I was young and began working on construction, I had to be taught to swear properly because I didn't swear before then and used technically correct pronounciation. For example, I would say "F........ng" but was told that was incorrect, it was supposed to be pronounced "F.....n", no "g" at the end. It took me a bit of practise but I got the "F......n" hang of it.

I understand people have parents that wont allow them to buy apps. I understand people live in countries where its almost impossible to purchase apps.
I will point and laugh at people that dont change the sig from the default.
I would also bet people think because it says app-developers app they think it has something special.
Also you do know the xda app is a modified version of tapatalk. If you own the premium version of tapatalk there shouldnt be anything in the premium version of xda that is not available in the tapatalk. I agree each person has their own preference.
As for how people come here for help...how is that related to my question?
Just saying people come here looking for help and what not.....not to be laughed at....

Kinda funny. I never noticed it till I saw this thread. For me, I just typed xda in the search bar in the market, and picked the first one with the "official" logo. I didn't even know there was a choice. I don't think I'm fooling anyone with an app dev signature
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
Yeah, it's all because app developers are Linux guys, and you know how they are...
I never noticed the difference myself. I didn't buy the paid version because I'm wasn't then and still am not that impressed with the app, in general. I guess I never really considered it "supporting XDA" to buy the app. Hmm, I guess it is, now that I think of it. Maybe when they make it so that reading all the posts in a forum actually makes it marked "read" on the app...

OMG the marked as read and actually showing new posts without having to toggle between pm's is annoying. That is a tapatalk bug. It use to not be that way, atleast for me but tapatalk 2.0 did some weird things.
As for not noticing it. At first I didnt but then we started to get a influx of noobs and reading those posts I realized it.
I think you're looking into it way too much. I bet 93% of the people don't even care, yes 93%
Xda app developers might have been the original name of the site. :-|
This has nothing to do with my phone other than I'm a crack flasher with a galaxy s3 and my hobby has now given me a big boy job. Thanks to all the devs that make my hobby fun and exciting and now has led me to a real job. You guys are awesome.

not at all friend, but dont think for a second a majority of the people who read your post will just assume you meant "weird" or "strange". face it, most will ASSume you meant in regards to being homosexual. even if its not what you meant, it could still be offensive, and you should think about what you say and how others may perceive it before you post that on the interwebz.
also, playing off your logic here, who are you to say a man listening to one direction is queer? i think you NOT listening is rather gay.
and by gay i meant happy. did you assume that?

not at all friend, but dont think for a second a majority of the people who read your post will just assume you meant "weird" or "strange". face it, most will ASSume you meant in regards to being homosexual. even if its not what you meant, it could still be offensive, and you should think about what you say and how others may perceive it before you post that on the interwebz.
also, playing off your logic here, who are you to say a man listening to one direction is queer? i think you NOT listening is rather gay.

I am more than happy to explain my use of the word when people misunderstand it and quite honestly the word stupid is offensive, but we still use it along with many other negative terms. Lastly I don't see how, "I think you not listening is rather happy" makes sense grammatically so yes I would assume you were using the homosexual meaning.

given the general societal stigma involved with men listening to whats considered to be "girl music" using the word queer with no clear or definitive meaning, and only the stigma i mentioned earlier for context, it can only lead the observer to assume you meant the opposite. dont attempt to justify your misuse of words with an analogy worth about as much as your idea its still OK to use the word "queer" when referring to a "strange" behavior. who are you to decide its queer a man listens to 1d? ok, so you personally think its queer, kewl bro. dont express that with no intentions other than to express it, bc than really your only intent was conflict, right?

Again I don't care about the general social stigma and no I didn't mean to start a conflict. I actually just really like the original meaning of queer and the way the word even sounds like its definition. Furthermore I think this conversation has gone on long enough and we should clutter this thread up anymore.
