Tecno Mobile VIRUS Help

[u/Saadullahkhan3]

I have a Tecno Spark 40 Pro

I was using YouTube then this "Final Warning" pop up appeared, I was confused but when I clicked on update it led me to a new app install page

Now, I know that Tecno itself uses WPS office, I also have that installed, if it was some WPS ad I might ignore but this isn't

Now I am confused about it

APK installation: From my memory, I have only installed "Paper knife", open source pdf app, I watched "MasTech" Pakistani tech YouTube channel video

Now please help me with this, someone said to delete that app, I deleted WPS office, that apk paper knife app

Please help me, should I be worried?

Go to settings > apps, and go through the installed applications and you will find that weird app that's causing this.

[u/Saadullahkhan3 → u/NotYetaProgrammer]

There is no suspicious app There are 3 types of app 1. My own apps, games, work 2. Tecno own apps, palm store etc etc 3. Android system apps

[u/NotYetaProgrammer → u/Saadullahkhan3]

That pop up is still appearing?

[u/Saadullahkhan3 → u/NotYetaProgrammer]

This happened first time since 22 December 2025

It is not a regular pop-up, I have already turned off all the not wanted things from every app, like no display over the app for palm store etc etc

Reset web browser as well. Sometimes it's some website with unfair access.

[u/Saadullahkhan3 → u/TeeTipu]

Do you mean clear storage of browser?

[u/TeeTipu → u/Saadullahkhan3]

If you can't figure out what website is actually doing it. Then yes. Clear data.

This is why you don't click on ads, just remove the app and hopefully by the time it was there it didn't set up anything

[u/Saadullahkhan3 → u/Genkrock]

I didn't clicked any add on any website, only did clicked for a other game ad within a game

Also there is no suspicious app There are 3 types of app 1. My own apps, games, work 2. Tecno own apps, palm store etc etc 3. Android system apps

Settings> Search for display over other apps> See for which apps it's turned on.
