[Completed] Say I've rooted my phone. How do I find out whether the rootkit has installed - XDA Assist

a keylogger in rom that sends all my user names and passwords back to a central server? The uncertainty around this question means that using a rooted phone for e-mail (given the role of e-mail accounts in password recovery for online bank/brokerage accounts), or indeed, any input involving user ids and passwords, is very iffy.

I have a bot on my cellphone

Background info
My phone is Samsung s3
Rom is cyanonegmod( i installed it using the tool on their website)
My skill level a very low
The only apps im running are from google play store
I think i have a bot on my cellphone. Earlier today I was looking for an email that had room reservation information from the silver legacy hotel. I have my exchange email linked to my phone so i used the search function in the email app to search for the word silver. The reservation was in the results list. But there where also bunch of outgoing emails that i never sent. The emails looked like spam, i opened one but didn't click on the link. The email had been sent to me from me according to the email, but these emails don't show up in my inbox or sent mail folder. These emails don't show up on any of my computers that have the my exchange email account synced to them. I think there is some sort bot running on my phone. I tried searching using google and the xda forum search function but i couldnt find anything to help me. Is there anyway to remove the bot with out resetting my phone? I've never heard of this happening, but i figured it would only be a matter time before someone figured out how to get bots on cellphones.
Hi there, XDA Assist is mainly for navigational guidance within XDA. Your question is more general and would be appropriate in the General Q&A section. I have asked a moderator to move it for you. Good luck!
I would say they are in your spam folder, a lot of spam email spoofs the sender as the receiver email to get the person to open it. Check your spam folder and I bet they are in there.
I checked the spam folder, the emails weren't there.

Whatsapp is becoming really a privacy concern ..
Is any of you guys is using their other brands ; like instagram, FB Messenger. . Etc?
Are you blocking them from accessing private data?
Are you using any modded apps that they don't like?
I don't know but I think that they are trying to link everything they own together .. so if you block any of it in away that the info they get is not identical , they block you, and force you to supply the info they failed to collect from your devices ..

[Completed] Account ownership

I already have an XDA Developers account registered with an email address I owned. Unfortunately the email service provider ended their free service resulting into a loss of my access to that address anymore. Now I switched over my GMail and I would like to regain my original XDA Developers account access/ownership with my GMail address.
I would request the relevant authority to help me in this. Thanks in advance.

Maybe @MikeChannon can help you out with this.
When it comes to dealing with account specific questions and concerns, you should ask an Administrator for assistance.

Not sure what you are talking about.
Is this for your XDA account.... we don't require email verification.
Is this for something else? An app maybe?
Mike
Great question! You're really onto something in your suggestions here, too.
There are a few reasons that someone would use a "double opt-in" or mandatory email address verification. The first one, as you mentioned, is to avoid spam bots. Having spam bots on an email list can cause a few problems, the first being deliverability. If you're sending an email out to a list that contains a number of spam email addresses then you have a high chance of being flagged by email clients and run the risk of your sending domain being blacklisted. This has it's own consequences depending on whether you are running a shared or individual IP. What you also have to think about its the fact that depending on your ESP, you could be paying based on the number of email addresses you're storing in the system. Why would you want to pay to store email addresses that don't exist or could damage your email efforts? The same is true for storing email addresses that are mistyped or intentionally incorrect.

We all know what email verification is, that isn't what anyone is asking.
The issue here is, no one understands exactly what you're asking. No one is asking you to explain what email verification is. They are all asking to what site are you trying to register and the Administrator here has already said that there is no email verification needed for XDA. That was his way of saying that he didn't understand what or why you were asking.
Are you asking about email verification for another website? If so, then you need to contact support for that site because no one here has anything to do with your email or any kind of verification to any website.
In a nutshell, there is nothing anyone here can do for you. That's why no one understands why you came here to ask about it. You're in the wrong place and you're asking the wrong people.

How do I get a Vivo account?

I read you need a vivo public account to chance the launcher? If Vivo is not giving them out anymore then how can I get one? Is there any way to get a Chinese number?

Send a message to the Vivo community on Facebook. They will help you out with an account.
I personally dont like having to sign into a "public account." This seems to be a flaw in Vivo's "stability and security" of their systems (which is the common response they give when you ask for their source code).
I was able to use an online sms verification service to sign up for vivo cloud. Use https://onlinesim.ru/en/ to get a china phone number to receive the sms verification. I used the "telegram" service option to get my verification code. You will have to purchase credits (I bought 51 or so credits for about $1.00). Here is a video on how to use it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kO3xbb4ZXec
After you get your account verified, immediately bind your personal email address to it and change the password.
I get this message from Vivo.
Dear Claudiu,
Thanks for your email and we are deeply sorry for the late reply. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Which country are you from? We are sorry as your phone mainly faces Chinese users, the account can only be registered by Chinese phone number. We are sorry we currently don't have any account for you. But don`t be upset, we are currently developing a new Vivo Account Registration System, which is expected to be available later this year. Your patience is highly appreciated.
Thanks so much for your time and please keep us posted with questions.
Best wishes
Erin

You'll have to do a separate sms verification for the Vivo Cloud.

Can you describe what you're doing? Are you using the online sms verification? After using the provided Chinese phone number you should get the verification code (on the sms website) and you should be in your new vivo cloud account, from there you'll change your password and link your personal email address.

Did you submit your passport for verification? They also ask for a "Registration" upload - not sure what that is. What did you use? Thank you!
Re: Vivo Account.
I was able to create a Vivo Cloud Account online with my computer from their site. However, when I try to login to it from my phone I get an error wrong username or password. I've tried to contact support and haven't heard anything yet.

No I meant did you have to submit your passport and ID for verification when you acquired the OnlineSim virtual phone number.
