It’s a very long story but ultimately all you need to know is, i have to make sure an unknown app isn’t sending an assload of traffic through port 25 on any network im connected to. How can I confirm this on my android device without an external PC?

    Ah, yeah I’d imagine such an app needs root for that functionality. Low ports are protected by the kernel. If you’re suspecting malware on the phone, you might just wanna wipe it and secure your accounts?

      I’m not personally suspecting it but the organization I’m with has reason to suspect an android phone is infected and blasting out traffic through that port. I’m just confirming it’s not me to be safe, though Im pretty sure it’s someone else, as I generally keep my phone activities to youtube

      I may just wipe anyways since I’ve had issues with this rom but jeez is it gonna be a process

        They might be looking for a chromebook, fingerprinting software can be a bit dubious at correctly identifying devices.
