Malware - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A red border appears at the edges of my Samsung nexus s screen running ice scream sandwich when I do some operations like use Google search or compose an email or make selections could this be malware? I have run avast and lookout and the both return positive results but still am not satisfied by that because my phone did not do this a week ago. Any body know what this is and how to fix this?

Settings --> Apps --> Running --> List me everything that is there. Also, click on cached apps (or the memory bar) and list everything that is there too. Feel free to attempt closing some of these and see if it goes away.

Isn't that a setting in developer options?

Google PDA Version

Hey
Both google mobile and google PDA version do not look anything like this on my XDA IIi or XDA Mini S:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
What address is that page at? Does it even exist?
Thanks
cya
the picture is most likely meant to display http://www.google.com/xhtml
no, mine doesn't look like that still. I have tried all three layout options in PIE as well... nevermind
Did you tweak you PIE at some point to change it's string so it will identify as regular explorer?
That could be the reason.
No, I use pocket IE plus which lets you change it back on the fly. It's not that either. Can I ask if it works for you guys?
Thanks
Works for me. I get it when I enter www.google.com in regular PIE.

It's not doing that for me...
OK fixed it by updating to the latest Altered Beast 4.1.1
I would suggest posting this in the existing thread for AlteredBeast here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1096657 I can say that GunnerMike and DroidXcon are still working on this and yes I had some of the menus appear that way. Its still an Alpha ROM and very much a work in progress.
You did exactly what DroidXcon has asked for comments and a screen shot, but it needs to go in that thread.

It's a Russian botnet used to topple the UN!
Haha, but, seriously, it's just the underlying system processes, such as brightness regulation, network regulation; you know, system stuff.
Edit: Oh, I thought you asked what it was. I feel like an idiot. Mine is around 19-20, but that's because I have a lot of crap tacked onto it.
All I have is Facebook and twitter and they are set to manual everything. Do you think that this looks normal? It used to be at 4% up until last week and it's really bothering me. I haven't downloaded anything new.

no one has any idea???
Is it only certain apps that show that way? Or is it always in that alternating pattern? If it's certain apps, an app can make the notification show up differently. If it's always alternating like that, then I would guess that you flashed something over your rom like a theme or mod, or you flashed the rom without wiping. Flashing anything onto a rom that isn't compatible will cause all sorts of anomalies.

"Locker Enabled" [SOLVED]

SOLVED........ Found out from elsewhere that this issue is due to the app "Addon #1" which is an app protector add on for Hide It Pro / Audio Manager. I deleted it & the issue resolved itself. Glad to see it gone!!
------------------------------------
THE ISSUE....... I just restarted my phone because it was acting slow. When it booted up a yellow pad lock icon appeared in the notification bar at the top. When pulling it down it says "Locker Enabled" and under it "Your phone is protected". I've never seen this before & it won't let me clear it.
I just re-installed Lookout Security and scanned my phone with it. It says Everything is OK though.
Anyone seen this before?
....or have any advice on what to do about it?
