[QUOTE="Marchwarden, post: 808004, member: 79002"] Thank you for the reply! Unknown Sources is Disabled. As for device administrators, three are listed: - Cricket Wi-Fi Manager (carrier app) - Find my Device - Google Play All are set to "Off". I tried to find an app that locates hidden device administrators, but my searches just turn up anti-virus and anti-malware apps. I'm not sure if that feature is integrated into most of them these days or not. I *suspect* that whatever the malware is also jacked some of my login information. I infrequently use a social media service and I had their app on my phone. I tried to log into it today from my PC and it wouldn't accept my password (I use a password manager so it couldn't have been a fat-fingered entry). Not sure if that helps target what kind of malware might be infecting my phone, but I thought it was worth mentioning. [/QUOTE]
