Hi Guys,

First of all I would like to thank you for the past solutions that you have provided, all of them worked flawlessly!

Now on to my issue, I am currently experiencing this browser pop-up adware of some sort... I'm not sure where to fix it as I have already installed Bitdefender + Malwarebytes on my Phone but it seems to be NOT detecting the issues [I even bought a subscription on both APPS but still nothing seems to work]. I have factory reset my phone several times and it seems to halt the operation maybe because it is recognized as a new install of some sort but after some time the pop-ups would launch again like what is happening now. I'm using TWRP as recovery and I have updated the Stock Gapps with the latest Nano pack from its website. My phone is rooted using Magisk and I have also the Magisk Manager, I also installed Greenify under the Magisk Modules, other than that all my apps are from Google Play. Is it possible that Google Play apps are not that securely scanned? I only installed a couple of social media apps from Play Store [Facebook, Skype, Viber], A custom Launcher [Nova Launcher] nothing more. My Phone specifications are attached to this post.

thanks again in advance guys!

Cheers!

Will do that and will give you feedback again after a week or so.

Hi Guys,

I have again experienced the same issue, its as if there is a countdown of some sort on the firmware that I have, yesterday the pop-up started again. As suggested by EMMANUS from the last message i did a factory reset and didn't install apps that are not 100% sure to be adware safe.

So I did factory reset, installed gapps nano from its main provider, installed Magisk Manager, Greenify from Magisk Modules, and that's it. Then yesterday I got again the pop-ups after some weeks.

Any help on this is greatly appreciated

are those the only three apps you installed?
have you tried flashing stock rom? {this will help clarify if its from the rom itself or your phone got infected somehow}
