General :: Android Malware Randomly Downloading Files

Dec 14, 2013

My mother has an Asus Transformer, and she's had it for awhile, but she doesn't use it for much other than getting e-mails or video chats. I turned it on today and it suddenly downloaded a bunch of files. Mahjong.exe, Bubble_Hit_brch.exe, 7-superfoods-to-boost-your-immunity.pdf, etc. Small files, less than 1MB per file. There were about a dozen files in her downloads folder, a few of which had "-1" after it so it had downloaded some of them twice now.

I've Googled the filenames, Google "downloading files at random", "downloading unwanted files", etc., etc. I installed three different virus scanners and they found nothing. I believe her when she says she doesn't download anything or install anything.

General :: Unknown Camera App Showing Up - Malware?

Apr 21, 2012

All of the sudden a camera app I've never seen before or installed shows up in my android app list.

I don't know what it is. It might have happened after installing DoubleTwist Alarm Clock. I'm afraid to open it since I think it might be malware. It has a purple icon.

General :: Malware To Spoof Notification - Galaxy 10.1 Tab

Jun 29, 2012

Just got a notification on my Galaxy 10.1 tab: "Sign-in error for [URL]... - Touch to sign into your account".

Is it possible that this is malware spoofing the system? Any way for me to find out? I've run Avira and it says the tab's clean, and I also checked the running services, but I don't see anything out of the ordinary.

I'm wary because a few days ago I got a notification that my tablet had a virus *eyeroll* and when I tapped it it went to a 'download antivirus here' page which of course I didn't click on...

General :: Downloading Files From Hosting Sites

Jul 3, 2012

I have a problem with downloading files from hosting sites such as rapidgator, hellshare etc. On default browser and on Google Chrome files aren't downloading at all or there is downloaded a file which has for example 26kb or so, while I am trying to download files about 400-700mb. On Opera Mobile the files are downloading, but if I will minimize the browser and start any other app, the downloading process is stopped. I am really surprised with that because a few months ago I also had HTC Desire Z and I could've download any file with the stock browser and. while downloading, check any app I wanted.

I have Asus Transformer Pad 300 with Android ICS (newest update). When I download files about 10mb everything is ok, so I assume it's the size problem or maybe file extension, but I tried the app called All files download (or something like that) which has been recommended in a similar post (but that user had SGS3) and it didn't worked either.

Downloading To And Accessing / Files Directory?

Apr 6, 2012

i am updating an app i developed so that it downloads xml files it needs for content management. the files download successfully to the emulator but are not placed in the /files directory that openFileInput() is attempting to read from. i am admittedly unsure as to the proper overall solution here - app originally used packaged XML and was fed to an XMLPullParser - but i cant even get as far as attempting to parse new XML at present because my app cant find the new file sitting in /data/data/[myApp]/ and not /data/data/ [myApp]/files and i cant figure out how to get it in there. the download doesnt work at all if i add that folder to path.e.

Android :: Downloading 100mb Files On Android To SD?

Aug 5, 2010

I've been left without a computer after my laptop was stolen from my car but luckily I had uploaded my important work documents, presentations, music and home movies onto my premium rapid share account by compressing them into large .rar files. Now I'm trying to retrieve some of those files with the only Internet device I have and that's my sprint hero. Been trying since last night to download a couple of them through numerous browsers onto the sd card but either the download never starts or it it gets part way there and fails. Anyone have any solutions for this or maybe a download app like Down loader for iPhone? Been searching google and these forums for help.

Android :: Downloading Mp3 Files In Java On Android

May 4, 2010

What is the best way to download an mp3 file in java (on Android sdk)? http://developer.android.com/reference/java/net/package-summary.html Should I be using sockets? If so - what kind of "Stream" reader should I use. I have also read something about "intents" - is this something that is applicable here? I am also curious as to what should one do if connection gets interrupted - can I resume the download somehow or restart it.

Android :: Downloading Files On Android

Dec 23, 2009

I'm in the middle of writing an Android app, and would like to give my users the ability to share the document files it creates. What I'd ideally like to see would be files hosted on a HTTP server somewhere, so a user can simply fire up their browser on the Android phone, surf to the relevant page, and then download the file to their phone. I'd then like for my app to be able to open that downloaded file. I'm not sure if that's possible at all, but would certainly be interested in hearing from anyone that knows anything about such things. Unfortunately I seem to be having difficulty coming up with the answers myself - like much of the rest of the Android SDK, there is a severe shortage of relevant documentation.

Oct 23, 2009

I've got some photos stuck in an MMS that I tried to download before I realised that I didnt have the correct MMS APN settings in (due to swapping to the Modaco ROM). The correct settings are now in but the MMS is stuck at "downloading" status. Is there any way I can rescue it, there is no forward option and I've successfully sent and recieved MMS since.

General :: Sync / Compare Files (with Emphasis On Music Files)?

Sep 3, 2013

got a Samsung Galaxy S4 (for several years I had iPhones) and I am enjoying it. Now that I have gotten all my music files away from iTunes' clunky clutches I have reorganized them and they are on my S4's sim card and it works great.

The issue is that I have updated a few of the files and moved a couple more around. I want to update those music files on my S4 from my PC. I could just delete the Music folder on the S4 and recopy everything over, but that seems to be a huge overkill.

What is a good way to compare files between my S4 and folders on the PC and match/update between the two? I am using Windows 7. I have tried to map the Sim Card as a drive but couldn't get that to work. I have Kies from Samsung but that is kinda clunky. I have also tried AirDroid (which I think is great) but I can't really sync files with that. Normally I would use a Windows application like Beyond Compare or WinMerge to do something like this.

General :: Transferring Files BACK ONTO SD Card From PC (Note 3 Files)?

Mar 19, 2014

My Sandisc 64GB SD card went kaputt last week, it froze at 33GB, luckily the existing files are all ok and I was able to copy all the files onto my PC, however nothing new can be written to it. I've tried formatting with no success. So I copied the files onto the PC and just got a new this time Samsung 64GB micro SD card. Problem I'm having now is that on several attempts it's failed to copy the files back to my SD card (from PC) I've formatted the card in the Note 3..the music files about 4 GB transferred just fine, the problem seems to be with the Pix and Videos. I'm currently trying to copy the DCIM folder back onto the micro sd and it's saying it'll take 6 hours.

I have tried: copying from PC to micro SD in the phone via USB copying from PC to micro SD in SD card adapter plugged directly into PC

copying from PC to micro SD in USB adapter plugged into PC

all results the same

General :: Galaxy S4 Randomly Turns Itself Off And Goes Into Bootloop

Oct 16, 2013

I got the phone from 3 UK on a contract in July, so phone's pretty new and not rooted or anything.

Yesterday the phone started turning itself off at random times quite a lot.

Battery could have been over 60%, at 30%, it was never with the same charge that it would happen, also never when doing the same thing on the phone.

Usually when it's about to turn itself off, I lose signal completely, then the screen just goes black.

When I try to turn it back on, it usually dies again at the 3 logo or even at the Samsung one and I have to try and turn it back on again. Sometimes I had to pull the battery out and connect it to the charger to make it boot up ok.

After a couple of times it did that, it started going into a bootloop when attempting to turn it back on again after the random shutdown. Phone wasn't hot either.

It had happened a few days before but just once not this many times in one single day.

I removed the microSD card, since it makes the phone think the device has been modified and won't let me update, but the microSD works fine in my old Samsung smartphone and even with that removed, phone still turned itself off and then went into a bootloop.

I think it might be the battery. Last time I was using the phone unplugged yesterday night, the battery went down to 33% charge in less than an hour and phone turned itself off. After managing to make it boot up again and connecting it to the charger, it was saying 60% charge. I doubt it could have gone up to 60% being plugged in just for a minute or so.

So, I can certainly take it back to the store and have them fix it or buy a new battery and see if it solves the problem.

Is it likely to be the battery that's malfunctioning?

Lots of people on the Internet seem to have this problem and a few mention a swollen battery. They replaced the battery and phone was fine after. Mine seems ok, but I can't be sure.

I don't understand why I seem to lose signal completely just before it switches itself off... it doesn't do it all the times, but a lot of the times yes.
I have other phones on 3 and they didn't lose signal completely and anyway in my house coverage has always been excellent.

I forgot to mention that once, while trying to restart the phone, I got this message, more or less: "Installing custom OS can damage your system or applications. Choose volume up to continue...". My phone's not rooted and I haven't installed any custom ROM!
