Hey all,

I have a Samsung phone US unlocked. I recently began to notice that at random times my messages sent to people are edited (either lines are deleted or things randomly highlighted). Also the cameras and mics randomly turn on at times The bluetooth is also randomly popping on and off (though I read this particular problem is experienced by many people). But most the most alarming thing was when I put the phone into recovery mode the phone was scrolling through the various sub menus on it's own. This exact same thing happened to every samsung device in the house. We recorded this on a separate DSLR camera, and our family friend said the phones were definitely hacked. I was hoping I could ask for help to figure out what kind of malware is on these phones? I had malwarebytes on all these phones and nothing popped out. So, I'm not sure that this is a malware. Randomly samsung security profiles and knox were also turned on. It's weird as I'm unable to sign out of my samsung account as well. 

 

I did a factory reset and the same thing was still happening. 

 

Thanks
