What I am trying to do, is give some indication to buyers of phones including phones not in this OP
a chance to know what security app claims to detect it.

Negative feedback is from michael mcgreevy and I will quote his main complaint
Quote: scanned my phone. Funnily enough, there was no mention of the "Android.Trojan.Uupay.D
MY RESEARCH and OPINION
############
In researching what he did find....one was this
https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/61ac5.../analysis/
In other words.....if you install G Data.....on the basis.....it will detect the trojan we are talking about
IMHO it will NOT!
----instead at worst it will detect the family of which the trojan is derived from.
In other words ......G Data may have a news item but are misleading people who install and run their app.
I claim based on the negative comment.....that affected users will not see a HIT for the trojan they fear most.
Obviously they can change their definations at any time......but my extra point is, the respondant knew about the trojan and installed the app.
Not the other way around.........yes I get angry when I think I might be mislead.......I am talking about app makers.
ASSUMED DETECTION

On the basis that G Data is misleading its users by not mentioning by name the uupay trojan discussed at news sites there is a claim one app will tell you
