Browser hijacker (Techofires virus?) on Galaxy S5 help please

[Android Central Question]

Hi - unrequested web pages appearing on Galaxy S5. Have not downloaded any apps in over a year. Tried scanning with AVG & Avast (free versions) that report as no issues found. Same with Smart Manager. Pages (Gohoi for one) usually load on turning phone on. Last time the AVG flashed a warning that the page was one one that had been flagged as harbouring malware. Any ideas most welcome. Thank you. (PS phone currently in Safe Mode and no probs as yet but only been in safe mofe for about 30 mins!)
