Security apk as trojan - Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps

Hi people, be aware. A trojan with the name "security patch apk" from AOL comes as a internet link. Don't tick on it!
I installed it but bitdefender tells me a virus. Is it enough to cancel it? What would you do? Factory reset? Or only cancel this app?

from AOL? you mean application or website ?? anyway if you didn't install that apk i don't think it will be any problem but just to be safe you can use ROM NUKE and also delete rom related folders on your external sd card.

I've got a mail from my work colleague. He is on AOL. I've installed and deleted the apk with bitdefender

Ask your friend if he sent you anything, first. Most likely, not him but someone else. That would give your colleague info that his email has been compromised and/or his PC/phone has a virus on it.

Linux doesn't get viruses, what you have is something made to look like a virus for scare purposes. You are safe.

RomNet Plus+

Hey guys,
I wanted to ask if anyone had the APK file for RomNet Plus+? [link]
I reset my phone when unlocking the bootloader (SXS), only to find out I lost the app since it got deleted off Google Play.
The interwebs have turned up APK-less.
Gah, if only I had backed up ALL my apps before resetting.
Thanks,
Leo

Well, I don't think anyone will post it here since it's not a free app... you can try to ask for help in the forum of the app --> http://www.fpsece.net/

There is no rule saying you can't share it, as if I travelled to Canada I would be able to download it myself.
I would be thankful if you could post a link or, if you wish, share privately.
Please share the apk

i don't understand why :
1: facebook only put it in some country markets

Motorola Contextual Services apk

Could someone upload the Motorola Contextual Services apk for me? I believe it's ContextEngineClient.apk in "system/priv-app". I just need the stock app again so I can let it update from the Play Store. Someone give me a hand and I'll slap the Thanks button ☺

Cheers! Never remove system apps, just freeze them.

Yeah I know. I never actually delete them. I just ran into a hiccup with integrating updates into the ROM to free up some space. Thanks!
EDIT: When i click the link, it says I need permission to access it...
I still need Contextual Services app (ContextEngineClient.apk) if someone could upload it for me. The file in post #2 said I didn't have access to download it.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/z6cdgscp54w3uw7/ContextEngineClient.apk Not sure if I know how to post a link properly

XDA links to MALWARE!

I'm REALLY angry. I've been to the forums before and sought assistance from the community with excellent results. THIS time, I followed several of the links for a fix to a Dell Streak 7, and managed to download malware/virus V9 and who knows what else. All of my browsers have been hijacked. A System Restore does NOT work. Registry deletions DO NOT WORK. Malwarybytes has been DISABLED and cannot be reloaded.
I'm VERY careful when clicking on links. If there are multiple "Download" links I roll over them and look for the proper file. When I go to install, if ever, I read to see if there are other products set to load. I TRUSTED XDA to have links to safe areas, but this is clearly not the case.
I now have to wipe my computer to be sure nothing is recording my every move.
I'M TICKED OFF.
D.
you do know that xda cannot be held liable (neither legally nor morally) for links contained in postings from members?
otherwise, you would have to specify and or clarify your case!
and, regarding your problem: boot in safe mode and cure your pc from there! trust me, this works!

Yes, I know they're not responsible...LOL.
Safe Mode is a good idea. I hadn't thought of that. What can I do in Safe Mode to remove the item? It has no uninstall...
Thanks for the quick reply.

Try running malwarebytes in safe mode...and sorry for your bad experience. Can you PM me the thread on xda where you found the links to malware. That way I can be sure that it is removed.
Thanks!
My AVG considers an APK I downloaded from XDA malware. Does this necessarily mean it's malware?
The link is for a Xperia Chinese Keyboard.
Any help is appreciated
Mike.

That's not even close to enough information to make any conclusion.
I would trust any file on XDA before AVG.
Having said that, is this in a thread or on XDA labs?
What is it called?
Thread name?
Has anyone commented about the app?

Safe mode only boots/loads system apps, it doesn't allow booting or installing user apps in safe mode, therefore, using MalwareBytes while in safe mode is not an option.

Has worked for my Honor 10 (COL-29). Asked to accept privacy once.
Didn't try all the other weather APKs, but most others wouldn't install at all.
