Android Rom and Banking Fraud? - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hello to all,
first of all forgive me if i am in the wrong forum. Second I am not an authority with ROMs and developing. I can flash a new ROM and follow guidance easily but that's it. Up to that.
I will tell you my scary experience with a specific rom which i installed a couple of days ago on my S3. First off all this post is not suppose to be rude to anyone or anything. I am telling you my story and I would appreciate your input as you are the experts.
3 days ago I installed the MIUI (http://miuiandroid.com/community) ROM on my S3.
As soon as I turned the phone on to run it for the first time I went to the typical set ups but then I noticed something.
On he top right corner of the status bar the a green phone icon appeared meaning that the phone was automatically set on "Call-diverting" .I dint pay any attention for about 30 mins as I was setting up the phone.
When I decided to see what the icon does to my sock and horror I realised that my phone was pre setted to call diverting automatically to a specific mobile number in the UK.
I quickly disabled the call diverting and dint think anything more. All of that happened around 12:30 in the afternoon (pay real attention to the times here).
about 10 minutes later I was at the office. around 2 hours after that I got a text message from my Bank to call them about a suspicious money transfer.
I called the bank and the told me that a few minutes earlier someone attempted to transfer 2000 pounds from my account. Of course my on-line banking was frozen and I was lucky not to loose the money.
Now, during these two hours my phone never rang just the text message from my bank. The bank security employee told me that it looked suspicious to them because whoever was trying to transfer the money asked for the 4 digit number via the automated bank security system to be diverted to another mobile number. The bank advised me to call my mobile carrier as I did.
The mobile carrier , when i talked to him, confirmed that someone called them and accessed my account by giving them all the right info, and requested that every time my phone was out of coverage all calls to be directed to another mobile!
have you guess what was the other mobile?? It was exactly the same mobile number as the pre-set on the ROM which I had installed 3 hours earlier!
And my bank confirmed that the same mobile was used in order to get the 4 digit pin.
I was shocked to say the least!!
When after a few minutes I managed to talk to my girlfriend , she told me that she was calling me earlier for about an hour. These phone calls never made it to my phone. As the phone was pre-setted to call diverting it was ringing to the diverted phone and not mine.
It is obvious that as I do mobile on-line banking and I access my accounts from my mobile (as many do), somehow they managed to get all the information about me and I am suspecting dodgy applications on my phone. I hope I am wrong but this experience has really shocked me.
I love android phones I love what you developers do but I am after you opinion in this one.
I am not here to offend any developers but to have a genuine answer and a sensible discussion about this issue. I am not a kid I am professional and this experience has really made me think twice about smart phones.

i think you're right, it wasn't the rom but some malware-/spyware-app.
assuming your phone was rooted, it would be easy for an app to do all kind of bad stuff once it got root-privileges, eg hiding on your sdcard and spying your data and after that establishing the call-divert to catch the 4digit-pin and the rest would be history.
only thing you could do is think what questionable apps with root privileges you installed in the last days before this happened, try to get a copy of it and have a closer look on it, maybe installing it without a simcard inserted or with a simcard without charge on it, to see what happens...
a big piece of luck would be some kind of log from about 1230h to see what established the call-divert, but if i would do such app i would ensure to delete all logs with traces afterwards, but who knows?
though, all of that are just the ideas that came to my mind as i read your post...
good luck for the investigation, would be interesting to know if you could get any information about what happened, so keep us updated, ok?

It would be difficult for me to know which custom ROM is safe and which one is not! I am not an expert you see. And the same goes with apps. I don't think anyone can state with certainty that any are safe.
It is just shocking to know how easy it is for your details to "escape" !
I will keep you informed about how this goes.
jowett69 If you can tell me how to get that log you are talking about, that would be great.
In the meantime can anyone advise on a descent mobile data protection application? something which will prevent any sensitive data from leaking from my phone? Payware or freeware I don't mind.

some ideas

A start might be to check the Superuser app and click on Log and see what apps received su permissions.
Also, from a cmd prompt you can enumerate all the running processes by running:
Code:
adb shell "busybox ps -A > /mnt/sdcard/process.log"
adb pull /mnt/sdcard/process.log
View process.log for anything suspicious, or post it up and I'll have a look.

I don't think I could do that my friend. As soon as I suspected that something with that ROM was wrong I performed a full wipe and installed omega 9.1 rom.
My question is this. By performing a full wipe should really erase any malware from the previous installation right? Can anyone advise on a descent antivirus/firewall application which will help me (and others like me) monitor and "block" unusual application behavior?

oh and one more question for my information...sensitive personal data can only be leaked when the device is rooted ? if it is not rooted am I safe?

did you wipe your internal and external sdcards too? how did you wipe? cause it depends where the malware was hiding, if it is erased now or not.
a simple, yet powerful firewall is droidwall. you can find it in the market. put it in whitelist-mode and allow only the stuff you know. but droidwall controlls "only" internet-connections (wifi and 3g or such). for full controll over every permission of every app and connection of your phone you sohuld use pdroid, but i don't know if that's really necessary, though i understand your fear. but if someone really wants to harm you and has some knowledge, there are always ways, i think...

not really, think of those apps you can use to root your device. think a bit further and one could make an app that roots your device and afterwards does the stuff it wants. but seriously, though it is possible, who would do that to you? that's what you should think about...
greetz,
sUsH
ps: cause you did a wipe, there's no possibilty of going through some logs, sry. (though this too depends on the way you wiped and what exactly you wiped...)

I did a full wipe to install the new rom...wipe cache data ...devlink and one more but cant remember it

sry, then your try to get rid of the problem also got rid of possible evidence. just try to forget it and be more careful in future with suspicious apps from questionable sources and similar.

Insufficient Storage Available - Skype

I had Skype on my phone but it stopped working after it updated. I could recieve calls no problem and had video/voice chat. But everytime I tried to send a call it would fail after 3 rings.
So I decided I would uninstall and reinstall. Unfortunatley I am getting this error - "Insufficient Storage Available" when I try to install the app.
My internal SD card has 4.21GB of available space. My internal phone sotrage memory has 792MB free.
Why am I getting this error?
Where can one get that magic all knowing crystal orb that everyone seems to expect?
What device?
What rom?
Rooted or not?
Any mods we should know about?

Posts on XDA don't have to be approved .
(Not for now at least *looks at SOPA*)
XDA puts trust in their users not to abuse this privilege.
Read up on what rooting is here.
Okay, now back to topic.
There are more partitions(areas) on your phone than what you can see with normal apps or in the settings.
It is possible that one of these is full and causing that message.
I'm not too familiar with your device but "/cache" could be on an extra partition and be full with half done market downloads.
But that would probably stop skype from downloading , not from installing.
Your internal storage which is "/data" might have space left, but it is possible that "/data/data" is on an extra partition that is full, and "/data/data" is where applications are usually stored.
You could go to Settings->Manage->Applications and tap on some apps and select "Clean Cache" (the internet browser is a good place to start).
I cleared browser cache, market cache, and market data but that did nothing.
anymore suggestions?
well I read around on google and apparently this a very common problem.
the only method I have read though to fix it is rooting. I don't know anything about rooting as I stated in my OP. I know that rooting voids my warranty with rogers though and I don't want to screw anything up. I cannot afford another phone.
if anyone has another idea how to fix this problem that would be great.
does this look like a legit answer?

Still looking for help
not sure if it's safe to try this method above could use some help
still need help ive cleared all cache for every program.
really don't want to try this root since I have no idea what I am doing.
Please keep the discussion public.
no one else has responded to my topic so I am guessing no one else knows.

I did not respond anymore, because i don't know any solution that does not involve a rooted device, if what i suggested did not help.
Factory reset your device and try again, but thats a ****ty solution...

Does factory reset wipe the apps that came with my phone?
tons of apps came with my phone like facebook, twitter, rogers navigation, google navigation, angry birds, voice search, etc.
No factory reset will wipe everything you installed and changed.
To get rid of preinstalled apps, you will have to root -
This is going to sound ridiculous but I had the same problem installing several apps the last time I put on a new rom. It was resolved by rebooting the phone.
Should have been step 1 but it was not listed.
if you mean turn off/on I tried that.
has anyone tried this temporary root thing I posted above. does it look legit?
I also had this problem with my old "desire". resolved with the installation of a2sd +.
Which needs root....
So you either have to get comfortable with rooting your device or nag the manufactor / provider about it .

Hiya,
I'm bagofbits and new to these forum's and was not sure how to contact anyone at XDA so after some after advice from LUFC (forum moderator) here is my situation.
I have a wildfire s and been viewing those forums, during the last couple of days since the change over from android market to google playground or whatever it's called these days, I've been getting a popup app in my status bar saying please download 'battery supercharger' . I've been just clearing my status bar but it just kept coming back.
Today by mistake i downloaded it and got loads of texts within minutes and ended up with a charge of £4.99, I text 'STOP' to the number given. My network provider(3) can't help and I've mailed google help about it and they have logged it and are getting back to me.
Also a number of post's on the web about it...
Anyway enough rambling, I've searched the wildfire s forum and can't see any mention of it, just thought that it would be useful to post something about it so nobody else falls victim to this.
Give me a thanks if u could please.
Cheers
Oh might be an idea to check recent downloads you have made that contain ad's that may harbor this scam.

The ad you saw in your status bar used ad over the air function.
There are some apps which will detect apps using the add. Method. And will give you the ability to uninstall it.

Unfortunately this is true, you have not stopped the messages - just confirmed to the spammers that the number is live and real. 3 may be able to help you by blacklisting the numbers you are getting messages from - also have a look here if the messages persist.
This is a problem that is by no means limited to the Wildfire S - recently I recognised an app on my friend's Samsung Galaxy Ace as being malware - it was also generating notifications about some kind of battery optimizer. I managed to remove it before she accidentally signed up to anything.
Regarding the app, try some apps like Lookout Mobile Security and BitDefender . If you run a scan with these, they may find the offending app and help you to remove it. Good luck!
solution to battery supercharger text costs
saw the two text messages yesterday, spoke to Vodafone told them to block any charges today, up to which time charges hadn't gone through. So hopefully this will cost me nothing.
even if they had placed the charge, I would have asked Vodafone not to pay it, and kicked up a fuss until the agreed not to do so, or carry the cost themselves. Anybody with a mobile phone contract is in a very strong position at the moment I have noticed, getting lots of freebies off them.
thanx for ur advice
but i think it is not harmful

Read deleted SMS

Hi all
My son 13-year-old must submit his phone to me every night. Is there any software that I can read his SMS event if the SMS were deleted?
I will appreciate all your ideas and advices.
Here's an idea, give your son some privacy.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Even tho I agree you should give him privacy and build trust with him, I'll help you out.
You could get a app (not sure of name) that makes a nandroid of every thing (including SMS) and have it set on a timer to do so. So at a random point in the day it will backup everything in it and restore it quickly to see what's up, then unrestore. (Maybe titanium backup?)
If his phone is rooted you can easily do it with the app called undelete.
Im a parent I get it. But I think you're going to far and invading their privacy which will cause he or she to rebel big time once they find out...and make no mistake your kid will find out.

Protecting you child by giving him no privacy...
Besides if he wants to hind something from you he will, your options have been given, but then again he could prevent any of them if he wanted or just delete messages as soon as he has got them so at the most you get a couple
Hey guys, don't assume anything about the OP's reasons for asking the question.
Maybe his son has had bad habits or "friends" that no "real parents" would like their sons to ever meet.
He asked a technical question (giving the reason why and he could have just asked the question "as is", which would be my advice for any of such question in the future) and if you don't want to answer it because you think it's "bad", well, don't answer it, but please, keep your remarks for yourself.
If you want to discuss about parenthood and the like, there are forums dedicated to such subject. xda is a technical site, so let's keep it technical)
The nandroid backup is a good idea .
Another one
If your career allows you to get your messages, sms, mms, and even voice mail by email (in some unified messaging system or even with IMAP), you could use that. Usually, the messages are NOT deleted from the messaging server when they are deleted from the phone.
My own career provides such a service.
I think we are done here.
Thanks.

Facebook are at it again. Never trust those f...ers

Ok so I bought a Note 4 used. All is good with the phone. It's on Marshmallow 6.1 (who cares)
Now I've rooted the phone and it's all good ... but .... oh yeah. "facebook scum of the earth" have now several apps (3) on 6.1 yup AND I cannot remove them !!!!
F. No. I'm rooted. I'm running Titanium Pro and still that isth comes back, time and again. These barstewards are circumventing Play Store. No matter if you're set to "do not update apps) it just keeps coming back. I've tried to nuke this **** 3 times now. I had to do a restore from TWRP every time. If you shut them down they come alive again.
I detest FB and all the rapc they stand for and trouble they cause. I want that s/w off my phone but how do I go about that? I've always relied on Titanium. Not this time.
So what now? I even tried to take a screen-shot but got a security notice "telling me that screen-shot WASN'T ALLOWED. what the duck- in - hell is going on.?
The gaul of these people. What ever happened to out privacy?
If I can't nuke these apps, I'll need to find an earlier ROM from 5.....?
Any brains out there much appreciated helping me ****e on these dickheads!
Thank you
sounds like bloatware from your provider not fb

First off learn to do this yourself
Titanium and other apps are a crutch..
You can never be sure it's done right unless you do it your self.
Get the oem image for your Rom
Learn how to open it up and remove or add things
(That how custom Rom masters do things)
Remove what you want and flash away..
Or find a debloated version of your Rom and flash that.
And understand.
As time goes on Google, samsung and everyone else are trying to find ways to stop you from changing things on your phone..
They make money from it..
(And they get less support calls about problems from noobs who mess up their phones)
One day.. You will just be stuck with it.
this is good apk may help
try this app
create a blank app with the same package name, then facebook won't be able to update it due to unconsistent certificates
Thanks all. I don't currently have an OS so I can't install anything. No matter how long I let the phone sit it does nothing. Somehow I feel like the phone is not wiped completely as I thought it would be using TWRP (twerp) I'm guessing this is why I can't simply replace an image twerp made for me.
I've tried to use Kies to re-install a basic OS but it had a heart attack and its toes curled up and it died RIP Kies!
Ideas?
Well, I thought I'd update this thread. I got a copy of Lineage 14.1 and a copy of Gapps Nano 7.1 and flashed the pair of them.
WoW finally someting that works .....? NOT
Sadly everything works but the phone bit. uckf, it never ends! Whatscrapp, Viber & Skype the screen goes black and I've no control. The regular phone is black screen too but works bi-directional. Whatscrapp just calls yet no voice transfer either way. Viber & Skype connect with voice both ways but the screen is black no control, no soft keys or home button. WTF is going on?
ANY help would be much appreciated. It not my settings as far as I can tell. Everything else on the entire phone works. Well except the pen bit, not that I'm bothered about that.
I've a Note3 and I can say, that Whatscrapp will not do voice just like the Note4. Note3 did WA voice a loooong time ago but packed up never to return. All the rest of WA works though. I can't help wondering what WA hooks onto to make voice because it'll ring and I can be called but that is where the fun stops. Seems the world has forgotten just how robust Skype really is with Viber being a gillion time better than WA WA sadly rules for now.
Ideas anyone?

[APP] [BETA] Phone Usage Monitor

Hello,
I want present my new app. that is in beta stage but fully functional: Phone usage monitor.
With this app you will be able to know when and how much you use your device and the apps that you have in it.
Please, report issues, if any, and suggest more events to monitorize.
Thanks
Play Store Description
Are you obsessed with your phone?
Up to what point?
Do you want to be aware of which apps are the most used?
Do you want to know what WiFi networks you connect to and at what time?
When are your applications updated?
Do you want to know if your phone suffers a expontaneous reboot or when you turn on or off the screen?
You need this app and you know it!

Thanks for the suggestion. Great idea!
It would also be nice to be able to monitor a remote phone (opening up the app to for parental monitoring for example).
This could be achieved by either allowing to :
- send a daily report by mail
- having a client app with data synced whenever a connection is avaialable
- sending data to a central server
...
anyway to export the data as .csv ?
Hello, thanks for app!
Any chance to remove "full network access" from permissions in future ?
Heya! Congrats on making the portal. Good stuff you got there.
Here's some suggestions for the intro texts:
Part 1 - Current
"Do you want to know how do you use your smartphone?
You have installed this app, so the answer will surely be affirmative.
With this app you can know with what apps you lose your time; time which you could lose living your real life..."
Part 1 - Suggested
"Would you like to know how you use your smartphone?
Well, as you've already installed this app, that'll be an affirmative!
By gathering statistics about your apps with Phone Usage Monitor, you'll know where your precious time is creeping off to. Time you might want to spend on living your real life..."
Part 1 - Motivation
The second "do" doesn't really have a function in the first sentence and I made it a bit softer to make a more friendly first impression. I mentioned the app's name to remind the user what's going to help them (branding, be proud of your creation). I stayed true to your intention, the reference to 'real life', but made that a bit softer as well by using "might" and not mentioning a negative word like "lose". We're all winners here!
Part 2 - Current
"To let us know this information we will run a service in the background to monitor the use you make of your smartphone.
Quiet!, it will not consume more than a little bit of the precious battery of your mobile..."
Part 2 - Suggested
"You're probably wondering how much battery this app will consume. Don't worry, just a tiny bit.
Think about the time you will save after gaining all this usage intel. You won't even need as much battery anymore."
Part 2 - Motivation
Shouting "Quiet!" doesn't come across very friendly. There's also never a comma after an exclamation mark. I wrote the text to match the battery icon better. I'm also pushing the major goal of the app forward.
Part 3 - Current
"We will give you more information if you let us see how do you use the apps in your device..."
Part 3 - Suggested
"Sorry to bother you but I will need some usage access in order to provide you with all these awesome statistics. Is that okay with you?"
Part 3 - Motivation
"let us see" gives the impression multiple people or a company will be watching along, which totally isn't the case. I wrote it a bit more personal, fun and friendly.
Part 4 - Current
"Do not worry!
The data we collect is NOT sent anywhere."
Part 4 - Suggested
"Do not worry!
The data I collect is NOT sent anywhere."
Part 4 - Motivation
As in part 3, It's better to speak from a first person point of view, "I" instead of "we". It's just the app and the user, "you and me", which is a more comforting thought.
Instead of "START APP" I'd use something more vivid like "Lets go!" or "Show me some numbers!" or "Start saving time!"
The UDPA looks good, people are used to not reading these disclaimers and accepting them anyway. It's also a nice reminder that even if there is a "we", it's literally stating no personal data will be collected on any server. Kudos! :highfive:
I personally don't like the last paragraph but ah well, one has to make a living, right?
Looking forward to those stats...

Sorry, but Internet permission is needed to display Ads.
I understand that you do not believe in my word when I say that I am not sending data anywhere, but I need to access the Internet to load the Ads
Please add export data functionality! Csv format for example. Great app otherwise, thanks!
Crashing
Hi,. Unfortunately the app crashes every time I open it on my OnePlus 6 that runs Android 9. The first time run screens work fine and permissions are assigned ok but then I can't open the app. I have tried clearing the storage/cache and that hasn't helped. Any ideas what to try next please?
Hi
Assuming you're rooted, please, post a logcat or send by email.
Thanks

OK, I will try it by my self
Hello
I've tried but no luck reproducing the issue.
If possible, enter app settings then enable debug mode then reproduce the issue then sent the log file.
If not possible, please, contact by email or PM to receive a debug version of the app to track the issue.
Thanks in advance
