my android hacked!

[tommysize1]

my phone was just hacked! i was trying to load up some internet search when my phone became unresponsive. annoyed, i began tapping the screen alot in the top left corner. then, suddenly, my phone left the search screen and displayed the desktop and then clicked on my sky sports app; in the top left corner.

this seemed possible to me.

then it clicked on the video report for the latest arsenal result and whoever was controlling the video made the reporters repeat certain funny phrases or words.i know one of my mates did this to me. as i am an arsenal fan and we just suffered a pretty embarrassing defeat to blackburn in the FA cup.

i think he maybe next door so it might be via bluetooth? but i think i would have probably turned that off.

i dont anyone installed an app when they have physically held my phone in their hands.

im thinking they must of inserted some software into a text maybe?

what do you guys think? and how should i block it/ get revenge?

welcome to the forums!!!!!!

what phone do you have?

you sure that it was not just the phone becoming unresponsive before you started tapping the top left screen. and then whatever the phone was hung up on was finished that the phone detected the tapping of the screen where the sky sports app was on and then it kept track of the tapping again after the app was launched and launched whatever video was where you were tapping?

i'm not sure that someone can just remotely control your phone like that. if anything maybe get Lookout Security & Antivirus and have it scan your phone......but i doubt it was hacked.

Yah, sometimes phones can react weird when they aren't working right.
It sounds like some kind of software glitch, but I wouldn't suspect hacking just yet.
It certainly can't hurt to have Lookout scan your phone to check for a rogue app though.

il download the lookout thing you suggest thanks.
and was definitely hacked!
the arsenal report was down the list a bit and not where i was tapping.
also they kept scrubbing the video to specifically repeat certain words. it was actually hilarious.
im just wondering how the hell they did it!
