Problem 1

 I think my telephone has a type of malicious software that makes me believe that my cell has a virus. Sometimes, it will fool me into believing that my security measures are old. In turn, they offer new updates for my security settings. So I do not know what to do… 

firts you have to know that:

Fake virus warnings are the common tactic used by scammers to trick you, and if you're not cautious, they might get real malware to your device.
If you have received a warning from Google stating that your phone is infected with viruses, it is important to take immediate action to protect your device and your personal information.

The most common types of mobile viruses targeting Androids are adware, ransomware, spyware, trojan horses, and worms. The term “virus” is now widely used to describe almost any kind of security risk, but it is a specific form of malware. 

These harmful programs are designed to gain access to your Android phone, retrieve personal information, increase your data usage and damage the device. Some are even designed to trick you into providing all of that information yourself.

 2. Restart your phone in safe mode: Press and hold the power button, then choose the option to restart your phone in safe mode. You'll see "Safe Mode" in the corner of your screen after your phone reboots 

 3. Find and remove malicious apps: Open Settings and tap Apps & notifications. Then tap See all apps and select Installed apps in the drop-down menu. Review your installed apps and uninstall any that are suspicious or unfamiliar. Afterward, restart your phone 

 4. Activate Google Play Protect: Open the Play Store app, tap your icon or avatar in the top right, and activate Play Protect in the menu. Play Protect monitors apps for unusual behavior that may indicate the presence of malware

 5. Install anti-malware software: Installing an antivirus app is an effective way to automatically clean your phone of viruses and malware. Consider installing a reputable antivirus app, such as AVG AntiVirus for Android, to keep your device protected in real-time.
