Security company Lookout recently issued a warning that Android device users need to be wary of a new type of application virus that can not only quietly reset the phone, but also allow it to install itself as a system application, and it is difficult to delete. How difficult is it? If you are not a technical expert and cannot replace the phone ROM, then you cannot delete it, and you may have to force you to buy a new phone. The virus initially hides in other apps, including popular apps like Facebook , Twitter, Google Now, and WhatsApp. When you try to uninstall these infected apps on your phone, the versions of these apps are no longer the original ones. These infected apps are usually downloaded by users through third-party Android app stores . These infected apps are very smart. They will invade the phone, reset the phone, and make it a system app on the phone, which cannot be deleted at all. When these apps are used, ads will appear. What's worse is that the system will download and install other apps on its own without your authorization. The reason is simple, because pushing ads and installing apps can help hackers make money. If you download apps from a third-party Android app store other than Google Play, you need to be wary of this virus. Once again, it is almost impossible to uninstall infected apps .
