How do you fix a virus on your cell phone?

Answer 1

Answer for mobile phone virusWell its plain and simple take your phone to the service provider and tell them to fix it!

--->yeah, well, that's what i would do if i was stupid enough to not even be able to fix my own darn phone.

here's what you should do, try to secure a copy of a PC studio software (the CD that came in with the phone upon purchase) for your PC. install it. from here on, you should be able to access your phone freely on your desktop computer. then scan your phone using your desktop computer antivirus, and that should do the trick.

instead of doing what Mr. Genius here is suggesting and waste a lot of money, try that as some kind of first-aid. if it doesnt work, then just post here again, I'll give you a few more steps.

Answer 2

It is difficult to give you an easy answer because cell phone technology progresses so fast and so does the development of malicious cell phone viruses and worms. A cellphone virus is basically the same thing as a computer virus, an unwanted executable file "infects" a phone and then copies itself to another phone, a cellphone virus or worm spreads via disguised internet downloads, text message attachments and Bluetooth transfers. Therefore it is almost impossible to pinpoint the source of the infection making the process of identification of the infected file and then removal almost impossible for a regular cellphone user to deal with themselves unless they have a very advanced knowledge of their phones operating system (they are almost all proprietary) and how viruses are written for them. You would also need access to equipment only cell phone manufacturers or repair stores have or are able to operate. With the leaps and bounds in the development of technology it will eventually lead to cell phone OS based anti virus software becoming widely used and implemented on all phones in the future because cell phone viruses will undoubtedly become more prevalent, damaging, and theoretically even spread autonomously through insecure bluetooth networks. But i digress, to answer your question you will just have to go to your cell provider and have them take a look and tell you if the virus or worm can be removed and if your phone is salvageable.

P.S. good luck dealing with your phone company.

Answer 4

I'm going to assume you are using a Windows Mobile phone? You can purchase Mobile Anti-virus which will detect and remove it. I suggest Kaspersky Mobile, based on the fact I use to have it for my Windows Mobile phone before switching to a BlackBerry.
