OPC
If anyone would have a solution to this I would appreciate.
I was going to delete a spam email in Outlook for Android. A kind of I receive tens of every day. Didn't open any attachment. The phone just crashed and started to reboot..
The Android and The Republic of Gamers logos appeared and than it started to reboot again. It's constantly rebooting. I went into recovery mode, tried to reboot, made factory reset several times, but nothing helped. I could leave it rebooting until the battery completely drains. I can power it on or of, I can go to boot loader and recovery mode. Once it even emited the startup sound and once the vibration started for a moment. But it always started to reboot again.
Any suggestions please? I believe there must be some malicious code from the email doing all that.
PHONE HACKED
It sounds like the senerio where the wallpaper used to brick phones, if you dont know about that. There was a wallpaper which crashed most of android phones just because of one pixel which was unreadable and as the picture was set as wallpaper, the phone was unable to boot. I think the same thing has happened but it doesnt justify that because you didnt add that mail/file to your system by any means and it cannot attach to your system without asking for permissions. All androids ask for permission from apps to download or access its hardware and its quite hard to bypass this remotely unless the hacker already has control to your phone. I suggest changing your email's password and try to open the phone? Its worth a try.
