Help [SOLVED] Malware resistant to hard reset

[Loki_s]

Dear all,

I made a horrible mistake. I used the wrong application to root my phone (huawei p7), and it got invaded by bloatware, malware and such.

- Malware comes up every time the phone is connected to a wifi

- Even after hard reset, nothing changes. After a while, they pop up.

- Apps such as stubborn trojan killer and malwarebytes, even if they have root permission, constantly find targets and remove them, but they come back

- every now an then, malware apps pop up asking me to install them

What do you suggest me to do? Flash a new ROM...?

How did you root your phone? Is the actual ROM original?

from what you describe the malware is embedded in the OS portion of that ROM, so with that in mind, you are going to have to replace the ROM again....

a bit more careful this time though

I did not replace the original ROM yet.

How did you root your phone?

I download an app to do it -the wrong one. It was KingRoot or something similar, I don't remember exactly which one was it, since I proceed with the hard reset soon after using it.

Is the actual ROM original?

Yes.

And after deciding to flash a new ROM... well, that does not work either
