Malware in Micromax Devices
Problem
I saw many Micromax phones are auto installing malicious apps like Ymarope, Calender, Sync Service, etc which might steal and collects user personal data & decrease the performance of phone. These apps get auto-installed again and again. These apps contain permissions of reading phone identity, Read and Send SMS, Read and Modify data of your SD card, Draw over other apps.The source of all these malware is the pre-installed app named App Center. This App is preinstalled in Micromax device and users are not permitted to uninstall or disable it. This app ( App Center ) automatically downloads malware apk and store them in your SD card in a folder named App Center. In this folder, there are two more folders named cache and cache1. These two folder contains files without extension(These are malwares which get auto install)
Solution
The solution for this problem is important because not all people can switch their mobile soon.
First of all install an app from the play store Net Blocker. After installing it turn off your mobile data and deny all permission of App center in app settings. Uninstall malwares and all apps which you don't use. Go in storage and delete the folder named "App Store" or "App Centre".
Now open the nNet Blocker and turn the switch on from App Store and other pre-installed apps like Game Centre, Mobile Assistance. Set it as Always on VPN and restart your phone.
What is the work of the Net blocker?
Net Blocker creates a VPN and do not provide Internet access permission to selected app.
