So adups was on this doogee x5 max pro.
I thought I got rid of it all by rooting and deleting the apk's.
First thing this morning I get Sophos telling me com.adups.patch was a low trusted app, and my droidwall all of a sudden wanted me to create a rule for it.
Where the frig did this come from, I did not download it from the play store, so is there still something deep in my phone which is allowing downloads from the adups company, the company that had the 'send all my details back to a server in China' apk that everyone talked about a week back.
Unfortunately I have uninstalled this from the settings/apps, cos I was still half asleep, but what the hell was it and how did it get onto my phone.
I have Droidwall limiting everything but apps. Not really droidwall but I cannot remember exact name of firewall app.
Also posted on xda security forum but no-one is answering.
HELP?

Thanks.
