Hello all at XDA!
This is a wonderful site so top marks to those who make the magick happen!
Ok, in short; Got my first computer Sanei N10 CPU - sideloaded a bad Flashplayer (after rooting successfully) and it got root access and/or I gave other malware access using fake icons at Playstore.
Since opening the box I have spent seventy hours this week already trying to learn about everything I can.
Now I am left with the tablet as so -
After factory reset device is still rooted and 'seems' to be working fine
shows 29.44gb of space on a 32gb micro sd card after wipe,
shows 92MB uesd in downloaded apps but shows no icons,
cant access safe mode, display is the same as normal plus fake safe mode icon,
and when i visit Google play root apps like Superuser display a fake overlay 'Install' button icon so I cant download the real Superuser and install more malware instead.
Flashplayer installs itself as soon as browser is opened.
The system runs very smoothly over the top of this hack since a shutdown of all apps forcing me to factory reset and would have run unnoticed if it were not for apps never asking root permissions when i downloaded root apps since.
Its an obscure model and cant seem to find it here on XDA ---------- SANEI N10 CPU 1gig 16gig and (Duel Core I think)
Has anyone heard of this shenanigans with Playstore Icons?
Can anyone point me to the right thread please as I am willing to learn much more form XDA and need a secure computer I can control and understand.
A great learning curve that has opened up a whole new world.
Wake up Neo...
hello, I wonder if there is any program that can create a register or log(HijackThis it´s a pc program)of all the programs and applications that are in the phone, and I want to know what can be uninstalled and deleted because the service provider install applications that I've never really used and all they do is eat memory and slow the phone.
well I hope this time not confuse the forum channel, pls any help would be helpful to be able to enter the modifying phone.
PD: my phone its a Samsung Galaxy s4 GT-I9500 / 16GB +64GB sd / Android 4.2.2 / No ROOT.
It's definitely necessary as our phone process no less harm if under malware attack than our PC. I'm all ears as I was a big fan of HijackThis during the WindowXP period. I'm sure phone with an Operating System would surely have a similar way to detect malwares on our phone. :fingers-crossed:
ok, I referred here by a friend after explaining what is going on.... my wife has a sharp FX plus... and it has been a problem since day one with the memory... I read the Q & A sticky, but don't know what I need to do in order to fix the problem so once I figure that out I should be ok.
the sharp says storage device is full on phone, if she gets two text messages it is full, she repeatedly daily has to uninstall games and erase all messages the phone does not give the option to move unused apps to the sd card or to erase unused apps, not to mention if she has mms on she can't receive texts and if she has text on she can't download mms.... like I said I'm new to all this... does anyone know how to fix this she loves the phone and the slide out keyboard and hates how big new phones are so I'm here to see if I can find a fix.... please help so I can put a smile on the wifes face!!!!
wow, not even a shot in the dark.... thats crazy.... I know there has got to be something....there is stuff all over the web so I guess I'm off to search.... I've softmodded alot of console so I should be able to get it down pretty quick, just need a direction to go.....
Need more info

What do you mean here... It sounds like your saying you have to "use" the app first in order for it to be moved or erased? Which im sure is not the case.
Respond with details of what ROM/ android version, build, memory option, etc. These are things needed to know before any help can be given because suggestions vary especially if you are rooted.
... But try this first, go to settings --> Storeage --> Internal memory and respond with either a screen shot or details if privacy is an issue. I would figure you will find the 'heavy' items there to delete... usually multimedia and not apps are the culprit.
Good evening
Best wishes to you all
Sorry for my Bad english but I will try to do my best to explain the incredible bug encountered and warn everyone about my problem hoping it will avoid you the same disaster
I hope you can help me even if I do not believe it anymore...
Since I was caught by the time I carried out the daily transfer (by car, in the night, eating ....) of my photos / videos between my old phone (galaxy note 3) and my new Huawei mate 9 and this in several stages over several days via bluetooth.
Since everything worked perfectly because I checked day after day that I had the same number of files, I opened the videos transferred to the mate 9 and everything was there.
But one day I open the files transferred on the mate 9 and there everything disappeared except the directory tree: I mean that the folder transfered are there with their original names but all the content have been deleted and the folders transfered are well there but are all empty.
Of course like an idiot i have deleted the original content from my note 3 as I checked a successful transfer: result I have so far lost a major number of pro and family photos and video due to some sort of bug Of the mate 9.
I tried all the apps of recovery possible on the Google store or on Windows (easus, dr fone ....) but nothing does they do not find anything (and I'm in development mode with debug USB activated after that i have pressed 9 times on the phone model)
I know that I proceeded as an adventurer without saving before doing this damned transfer.
But do you think that there is a hope that I can manage to find by some means those files that have disappeared miraculously but their folders are still there but empty.
Thank you for your suggestions
Small precision in case: I made these transfers on the session of my second user account of my mate 9 and not the master account originally created during the first start of the phone.
I noticed that these additional user accounts are attractive at first but in fact there are too many limitations: only the master account can send MMS for example in no case the additional accounts even with all the permissions granted, there are Other limitations too ... I contacted Huawei who confirmed these limitations for security reasons according to them.
Similarly one can delete at any time the additional user accounts but if you want to delete the main account it is absolutely necessary to reset the phone and it is impossible to reverse one of the secondary accounts into master account, you will have to reset and recreate as desired.
The more absurd for me is the inability to transfer files present on the internal memory between sessions of user accounts, we can only access the files of our current session even when we are into in the session of the master account we can't access the files of one of our others account.
You dont have your stuff backing up to one of the many available clouds?
amazon, google, dropbox, etc.
I would have mentioned easus but looks like you tried. I feel bad for you but take it as a learning lesson, backup important stuff. Get you a hdd, cloud backup and computer backup minimum. Never solely rely on a cell phone.
Huawei is big on security. Sometimes they get it right but if your 2nd user account was someone you didnt want to access your information you would appreciate the added security. I have never used guest accounts or anything but I remember my 2 year old was playing with my phone as she always do, and few minutes later she was in twrp attempting to delete everything. This was a 128gb nexus 6p filled to the rim with important information.
any twrp backups from previous phones?
Don't call it a bug because It isn't.
And also there are easier and much faster ways to transfer files out there.

Hello... about my problem...
I have contacted Huawei and I was surprised that they seemed almost to know the problem : they told me "you had a file corruption" at our stage we can not do anything you need to contact [email protected] with the following ticket number that we will create together ".
I wrote 3 days ago ... Still no answers ...
We will see ... But given the bad comments found on the net about the Huawei support I have no illusions ...
Last episode and season finale of my bad experience
I had the Huawei support by phone finally... They admit that there must be a file corruption "bug" on the mate 9 and they propose me to send the phone to a technician to try to do something without any guarantee to succeed and of course without lending of a phone replacement during this period.
If I can go back I will never buy this phone 1stly for the bug encountered but seeing the support recognising that it can be a real bug from the phone and not lending a phone... For a 700€ phone the support and results are very bad in the end.
Excepted this bug the mate 9 has many limitations and bad cons that I will explain in a video in a few days to describe why if I could I won't buy the mate 9 again
have you checked if the files are still taking a space inside the storage? or it is all free?
there is a lot of viruses out there that could have renamed or hide your original folders

Hi Michel
It is exactly what I think and after discussing about this the Huawei technical phone operator told me that it can be the files corrupted by the bug : yes I am sure that the actual storage is higher than it must be, at least 8-10 Go more...And that's why they propose me to send it to their technical support but without any guarantee to succeed and with no phone to lend during this period.
I hope that soon there will be a root 100% secure of this phone to do a full recovery deeper as possible but for the moment I don't know how to access this extra storage used that I can found exploring the phone in all the account users sessions or with hi suite or others recovery software (Dr fone, easus...) and I have enabled the option show hidden files and folders into ES explorer but no results
Hope you learned a valuable lesson.
Backup your data. Anything can happen. Bug. Stolen. Lost. Water damage.
I do have sympathy but very little.
Hello guys,
I'm on Oreo MHA-L29 8.0.0. 362(C636) also, I have a 128GB class 10 sdcard on the phone.
Before I shoot off, I want to say I didn't have this issue with Nougat but it began from Oreo beta.
Sometimes when I try to save a file the phone takes me to the point of selecting location and also filename to be saved and when I click save, then UI flashes and acts like it has completed the process but it doesn't save.
What I realized is;
1. Printing as pdf never saves (& I really need this function) always doing the flashing.
2. Some apps like WhatsApp, when I try to access documents to send, when I tap on browse other docs at the top it does the flashing (like it wants to access memory then comes back out)
What I've done so far
1. Individually disable then grant memory access to these apps.
2. Remove the sdcard and try using the phone without it but problem still prevails.
Need help guys...
Thanks
Hello guys, an update on this issue.
On going to apps, I found out there are two instances of files.
1. Ver 8.0.0 which I can't uninstall and it doesn't seem to be active and I can't uninstall it
2. Ver 8.0.1.322 which is the active one and it seems I can uninstall and it's also among the administrators
Maybe there is a conflict between the two? Should the second app be there or should it have administrator rights?
Please, I need suggestions, also someone on Oreo can help me check her/his instances of files in apps and also version number
Thank you
