Active conections

Highly unlikely. First, the primary purpose of malware is to steal personal data. It would be mostly invisible to the user until the bad actor used it against them. What most people think is a 'virus' because they see unusual activity is either simply misunderstanding how mobile phones work, or their account(s) linked to the device has been compromised.

What your image shows are Android (linux/unix) process numbers and activity. It could simply be the phone polling the mobile network towers to maintain connectivity. Without knowing what processes those numbers refer to, it would be impossible to tell if it's malicious. If it's just that there's a lot of network activity, that is normal.

Oh, thx for answer

Auto SMS reply with delay

Theres too many Apps called Auto SMS reply/respond on GooglePlay. Going to take hours to check out. So maybe someone are already using one that fits my purpose.

Simple app requirements:
- Trigger on incoming SMS: From approved phone number and with matching text string
- Respond after delay set between 1-60 min with preset text to configured phone number..

That's all.

Help SMS Messages go to Original User Not Active User

The problem is that I cannot see any way where multiple users can be workable when it comes to incoming telephony, because that depends on what SIM is in the phone but not on what user is logged on.

The puzzle is that the description of the feature actually says:

What's not shared
  • Files and messages, such as texts, email, photos, music and more
Now it's obvious how photos will be associated to the user who takes them, emails to that user's account, music to the user who downloads it. Outgoing texts are also fine. But there just isn't the information available to reliably associate incoming texts to the correct user, so whatever way they handle this will get it wrong at least some of the time.

So what puzzles me, and annoys me, about that description (which I copied from my phone's Help information on this setting) is that it lists "texts" together with all of these other things where it's perfectly clear which user they belong to. This can only encourage exactly the assumption that your daughter made, and Google really should have done better than that.


That assumption is, apparently, true.

Daughter’s partner found another setting needed to fully switch over to the second user and the texts and call history now go to the active user. Her description was typically vague and woolly but I’ll try and get details and report back.
