Nokia N73 Spyphone Questions

1 replies · 3,552 views · Started 12 April 2007

Is there any way of detecting if so-called spyphone software has been installed on a N73? Does anyone know how effective this form of software is?

I suspect I may have been given a phone with spy software pre-installed. How could I remove this software? Would I need to re-format the phone? If so, how would I do this? Also, would this guarantee to completely eradicate any spy software on the phone?

Many thanks in advance for all/any replies.

Reformat the phone, or update the firmware + reformat the memory card, and any and all software or other content is gone, for sure.
