    Is SlimBox Rom safe to use on X96s?

    Yesterday I update my X96S SlimBox Rom to 11.6 and it had 5 malware issues on it, Android/Trojan.Boogr.gsh after the upgrade. Malwarebytes found 5, so.....I deleted the SlimBox Rom, Factory reset to be exact

    and installed the standard X96S Rom 06-11-2020 and ran Malwarebytes again, and the same malware was picked up again...its embedded into the TV stick and you cant get rid of it. It is now a useless paper weight. Click image for larger version

    Hi ,

    this are Apps , first 3 has to do with Sound (Dolby ) , the other two are Apps that show / play Content from outside your Box ,

    if you have "root" try to manual uninstall and after that delete them out of the System Apps Folder then clear cache & Dalvik ,

    can be done with Apps "Clear Cache" , reboot and check again , otherwise contact the Dev. , he can say for sure more , maybe it

    is faulty Alert ,

    good luck / gefattern

      I see the first 3 are for sound,, ..why are they there? I factory reset and installed another rom and they are still there..isn't that unusual to anyone? One person says this in the XDA forum " Hopefully they will identify and remove the Infection in future releases...Infection is the word....

        Hi ,

        did you ever tried to remove this Apps ??? , if you not try you not know if it works , there are Tools that can show every

        outgoing data , like Wireshark , a Pro can fast find out what is going on , remember Slimbox Rom is a modded StockRom ,

        further good luck / gefattern

          Yes I really panicked when I seen those....So I did remove them, went into Es File Explorer and found them and deleted all of them. Thanks for the help.

          I ran Malwarebytes again and its clean now, I really like the SlimBox ATV works great on the X96S...

            Hi ,

            sounds nice , but Apps always let some Rest behind , better to clean cache & Dalvik Cache too , something for Apps to

            start faster or similar , after this the Box Startup after Reboot takes a bit longer because the Box must build the Dalvik new ,

            it is not a must but better if you uninstall SystemApps or normal Apps , i always do it in similar Situations ,

            hope you can now enjoy your Box , contact for sure the Dev. that he can delete them from future Roms ,

            good luck / gefattern
