I truly hope someone can help me here. If this is in the wrong section, please move it to the correct section.
I have for weeks now an app or something on my Android phone that after every x number of minutes and whenever I unlock my phone after x number of minutes, opens up my Samsung Browser to often times a .xyz web page. I am very angry about this and want to find out so bad which app is doing this. I have tried all the suggestions mention online, but none apply to me.
The one that will definitely work, which is mentioned here -- https://tehnoblog.org/how-to-fix-android-appsquare-net-novelcamp-net-malware-chrome-browser-hijack/ -- is a custom Firefox browser built by you all, Kaspersky, that has built in logging capabilites. To view the corresponding section, look for this text on that page: Firefox Browser App – Special Activity Logging Build
The problem is however, the Firefox app, located here -- https://box.kaspersky.com/f/71a8fb1d5f6346ed96da/?dl=1 -- does not work. It takes a long time to install as if something went wrong and when it is installed, the browser crashes. I am able to restart it and the crashed page is not shown. However, when I go to Gmail and open up a link and specify Firefox as the always default browser, it always opens up a crashed page. I uninstalled and installed the app, but that doesn’t help.
This is the only way that I know of to find this horrible app. Please help.
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S5 running Android 5.0.
