I just went through my girlfriends phone and she has a "Shoot Bubble." Is the malware version just "Bubble Shoot", or did the writer get mixed up?

Personal warning I'll also include AppsPlanet into those list if I were you.
@Allgamer : add this to the OP?the fix is based off of Justin's suggestions in the link...what is to stop future versions of this malware from ignoring this file in the future? nothing! but for now Justin over at andoidpolice.com has combed through the known infected apk files and provided us with this fix and info....i would read the 2 articles quote in the OP for all the goodies
the empty profile file shouldn't affect anything in the market or otherwise....i'm assuming the malware checks if that file exists and if it does then it doesn't try to run but this is speculation on my part. if i need to i can get some more information if the links in the OP don't answer your questions
The app..... Is warez summit not tollerated or discussed on xda
From my knowledge nearly all warez is a virus trojan spambot or all types of nasty stuff designed to steal your identity on whatever platform its on ie windows linux right through android.
Best steeer clear of it
First i manyally uninstalled the "Advanced Barcode Scanner" of KingMall2010.
Second i scanned my device with Kasparsky and Lookout, both didn't find any threads.
In the end i performed a reset to factory settings and a format of my SD-card.
Can anyone please tell me if this actions are sufficient to completely whipe this malware of my device?
Also i would like to know if this malware actively sent my private data to servers, or that it just opened a backdoor for later use. And if my data is already sent, what are the consequences and which actions should i take to do something about it.
Should one of these apps had been installed already (Photo Editor), is there something else I can do ... other than flashing ?
Thx
you can simply un-install it, it doesn't really do anything to your phone until you run the app
and even if you did, uninstalling it will remove the problem
