My cell phone was hacked and I’d been backing it up in some kind of automatic mode to my first gmail account. Would the hackers already have access to hack the next phone if I download my contacts from that gmail account into a brand new android?
Should I just make a new gmail account and back up a new cell phone to that one? Leave the old one on my old computer and buy a new one?
It takes a bit of planning, so am asking for help to work the order of this out. A factory reset done by a tech wasn’t able to completely clear it, and the tech warned me in advance this could be the case. I do not want to accidentally load old hacker crap back onto my new cell phone when I get one. I plan to get another android.
{EDIT: My hacker bump keyed my door lock and ran in with a flash drive that had a gps tracker on it that would heat my phone up, so when they got close, it was like fire. I turned around to see my hacker behind me in my grocery store line. During this period of time, I also heard sounds like ‘ooga-ooga’ car horns, piano keys, shuffling of cards, lots of beeps, phone calls that never ring through, a voicemail that never shows the dot let you know there is a voice mail, much more. The orange “recording” light would come on when I spoke a sensitive topic. So yes, it’s a deep level hack and the phone tech was correct to say that a deep factory reset may not even work. When the phone company tech of a high level went into my phone, he confirmed it is still hacked.
The download of the CVS files has been one of the more helpful suggestions. thank you.
Still accepting other suggestions, thanks!
