Hello,
I have just recently been approached by my friend who had his mobile [HTC Desire 626] infected with the "Porn Virus" which caused pop ups and installed applications and slowed the mobile down, in an attempt to rid the virus he ended up deleting some system files, including but not limited to the home button function and some feature that shows the memory occupied by an app in the setting > applications tab. A Factory Default Reset does not get rid of this virus nor does it fix the damage he caused to the system files.
He came to me for help and i have no idea how to flash or root. I have read loads of guides over the years and i haven't yet found a way to make it work, on account that my Xperia got destroyed in a road accident, most of the guides ask me to go into the Hboot menu but i am not able to access this menu with the Power + Volume Down shortcut. The fix for this is to turn off Fast Boot in the Power option in settings but this option is not visible to me in settings. Another fix is to remove the battery and power up the phone with volume down button held, this is not possible with the HTC Desire 626 as the back is i believe glued to the battery.
So basically what i am asking for is a way to flash a stock/custom ROM onto my friends mobile to fix the damage he caused and to eradicate the virus. I have a concern which is that i read in a couple forums that it is possible to get the mobile to go into a Hard Brick if i install the wrong Radio/Carrier. Looking at the many ROM's provided in the HTC support, my carrier is not listed, another forum suggested that it is possible to flash a ROM excluding the Radio, i would like to know if this is possible and how.
Thank You for the help in advance and i hope that i have been clear about my situation.
Ps. I see forums with HTC Desire 626s but no HTC Desire 626.
Pps. This is a repost since my post at xda-assist got no replies.
