How do I remove the engriks virus?

I'm have the same problem but when im tryed to fight the virus its became even more powerful and now its unstoppable I'm can't do factory reset because settings crash, I'm can't uninstall anything if I try launcher crash, settings crash, antivirus crash (if im try to uninstal eith antivirus) I'm know how to remove virus. You need to update your android version because the virus come every time you reset your phone it says that there is update or its just for me. If anybody know please tell me how to update my android version.
Srr for my bad English.
 
Re: how to removed engriks virus

I have tried factory data reset (automatic restore unchecked) almost 5 times in a row.... but it's not helping. "engrik" keeps coming back. I am really frustrated now. Plz let me know what else can I try. It's micromax canvas fire. Please help.

1)Just after your device is on, quickly switch your wifi off .
2)go to settings/apps
3)uninstall the app called "engriks" (if uninstall option is not there , force stop or disable the app).
4)go to settings/apps/all and swipe down untill you see the apps like "mobile ocr,measure,engrils,catstudio".
5)"DONT TRY TO UNINSTALL THEM " THEY MAKE AUTOMATICALLY RESTART YOUR DEVICE OR THEY WILL MAKE YOUR DEVICE STUCK"
6)Disable all the apps told above.
7)now switch on your wifi

Welcome. :)

Are you unchecking/unticking Auto Restore Apps before factory resetting?

Also, have you considered reflashing the stock firmware?
