As you certainly seem to know, com.myos.camera is the name of a ZTE system app, but when I did a search, I too was led to a site that seemed to have nothing to do with that. Report it to ZTE.

Have you installed any suspect apps on your device, or visited any dubious websites? Does this happen on mobile data, Wifi, or both?

Welcome to Android Central! What's the exact model of Blu phone that you have?

I wonder if Blu actually uses a modified version of ZTE's camera app.

I'm still not entirely sure, but I suspect this is due to how Blu rebrands Chinese phones as their own -- see the description in Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLU_Products. It may be that the phone is identical to a ZTE model, or it may be that one of the other Chinese manufacturers uses ZTE software.

As belodion explained above, "com.myos.camera" is the name of the system app for the Camera -- it's not a URL address. But if you only type that into your browser search bar, it will in fact bring up some odd site (starting with "ww16") -- I think that's just a domain that someone bought and is squatting on, hoping to sell to someone else.

When you bring up the App Overview and see com.myos.camera open, does it look like a camera viewfinder? Show us a screenshot: http://forums.androidcentral.com/ge...ide-how-post-screenshots-android-central.html
