Hi !
I'm looking to reset a phone that is suspected to have been hacked. I'm thinking that a factory reset is not sufficient in the case that a hacker would have rooted the phone and modified the core of android which could be possible if a hacker have a physical access to the phone, am I right ?
I'm wondering so :
1) if it is possible to modify the core of a usual version of android by rooting it, in order to add malicious software ?
2) If 1) is possible, is it possible to do that in a way that it won't be detectable by any antivirus/antimalware tool ?
3) If 1) is possible, is it possible then to unroot the phone => so having an unrooted phone with a modificated OS
4) How could I verify that the OS is the "original one" and has not me modificated ?
It is possible that some elements of my demande doen't make sense as I lack of knowledge.
Thanks in advance for your answer !
Have a wonderfull life !
