[Q] Unknown file seeking root access - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
The file kjrnl.nb was seeking root access from SuperSU today. It was denied access to root and thereafter I don't see any difference with the phone.
Anyone here can shed some light; from what / where this file came from ? Thanks.
Phone: Galaxy Note N7000.

I up that, I've got the same file requesting for a bunch of permissions today, out of nowhere.
Anyone knows what might that be?
It popped up when I clicked on the Prepay Widget Lite widget, which already has root permissions granted (it fetches USSD code updates like account balance and presents the results in a nice widget).

Hi there, just had the same file request root access as well. I made the mistake of granting and noticed it started to tamper with iptables. Does anyone know what this file is? No info on it all I can find?

Wow, nobody know? Really?
The other disturbing thing, after this request pops up the next time you visit the SuperSU gui your prompted with a request to update the binary. I did initially allow it access and it proceeded to modify iptables

Old thread but same problem.
Have you found the origin of this file? It runs only when I boot the phone (n910c) and I can't find the file kjrnl.nb but it shows running with "busybox ps". It might be something that gets uncompressed realtime during boot. I have always to kill the PID after boot.
Thanks for any insight.

[Q] Delete attwifi Hotspot?

Does anyone know how to remove the attwifi hotspot from the list of hotspots? With ICS I can no longer delete it with a long press and forget network. Also I no longer have access to the auto connect option. Where is the address stored and can it be reoved from the file?
Do you still have the ATTWIFI hotspot application installed ?
I have uninstalled mine and the ATTWIFI hotspot doesn't show up.
i have removed all of teh bloatware and it is still there. Now I did find it mentioned in the /system/etc/wifi folder in the file wpa_supplicant. Anyone know if this will fix it if I delete or modify this file?
Go to settings/apps/ and you can disable any app with ICS

It is not an app I am trying to disable just the access point ATTWIFI so that my phone will not automatically connecto to it every time I drive by a McDonalds or a Starbucks
did anyone figure this out yet? i'm on on rooted stock 2.3.5 and have the same problem. and there are more of these damn 'attwifi' hotspots popping up. super annoying.
A long press on my phone gives me a menu with "Forget Network" (I bumped the volume switch while capturing screen):

[APP] MotoInfo

Well, few days ago I was bored, so I decided to develop this very simple app which can be an altenative to that "Hardware information" section under "About device" you can find in stock rom.
There also is an option ("Dump all the properties!") which makes a file called "getprop.txt" which lists device's properties; useful to developers when they have to bring up a device tree for building custom roms for a new device or when they have to add the support for a new variant of that device. You can find this file under /sdcard/Android/data/org.alberto97.motoinfo/files/getprop.txt (I have choosen this path because it doesn't need root access and it is always availaible).
This app should work on every Moto/Motorola device (It works well on my 1st and 3rd Moto g).
N.B.: "Manufacture Date" field is available only on those roms which include this commit. Else if you have root access, you can see it from /proc/config/date/ascii. Still not sure why Motorola took another longer (and not working) way in stock rom.

So Zygote is asking root permission from years I've been rooting phones never came by this, I scanned my phone and no malware found, I've sesrched internet is supposed to be a normal android process but since I've always denied its permission and phone runs normal i have doubt on what it is.

It seems an Init process. I think it doesn't need root to work correctly
Hi, I've just had this pop up on my rooted RedMi Note 3 Pro, alongside whatsapp asking for root too, I'm not the only one to experience this, this guy here did too:
http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/166211/why-are-zygote-and-whatsapp-asking-for-root
given this, mine, and that guy experienced this all this year(only being 13 days into January) so all around the same time, I'd suspect we're witnessing some kind of malware
I will post in the Xiaomi board also about this and reference this post.
Same here.
I'm on a fresh install and this zygote su request wasn't appearing until I reinstalled all my apps so thinking it may have come from one of the apk's?
Another forum states that zygote is run at such a raw level that it simply would never request root.
With recent viruses masquerading with zygote, I am for now denying su requests with little to no adverse effects.
Can anyone confirm for certain that zygote should never need to request root? Is there anyway to dig out the rogue source/apk when av apps are showing nill?

As for Whatsapp asking for root priv, guess you have the xposed module "Whatsapp Extensions" installed

McDonald's app with root (magisk)

Hey everybody.
I'm trying to start my McDonald's app but it always gives me this message where it says that my device doesnot pass the security check. I tried magisk hide, I deleted app data and reinstalled, i deleted the twrp folder in the root of my phone. It still gives me this message and i really don't know what to do. there has to be a solution. Please help

It's a long term issue with McDonald's own paranoid security check. There's a chance it's also country specific, as I no longer have that problem recently. At least I can open the app and see ongoing promos. But I haven't tested redeeming coupons and such.
use my tutorial for mario kart, works with mcdonalds app and many others who detect root.

Maybe by disabling the appropriate notification on the phone.
Hey, it's reddit... don't kill the messenger
Maybe try Goodluck Quickstar, but I don't think that will get it. Worth a shot though.
Hi, thanks for the response, unfortunately this only works on tizen watches not wearos ones
