How To Fix Monkeytest And Timeservice And Other Auto-Installing Apps On Your Android

To solve the problem and have some peace
of mind:
1. Download and install Lucky Patcher on
your device (if your phone is rooted, fine, if
it's not don't bother).
2. Open Lucky Patcher and select
"MonkeyTest" from the list of apps
displayed
3. Select "Tools" from the list of menu
4. Then select "Disable Package (Freeze)".
5. Repeat steps 2 to 4 for "Time Service"
and any other auto-installing apps on your
device.
That's all you're done. Make sure you don't
uninstall the app, because it always finds
it's way back, but if you want to try, you
must be the adventurous type, by all
means, go ahead . So for now you won't
get bothered with auto-installing apps until
a better solution is provided.
Let me know if this has helped anyone out
there.
If you want a permanent solution, you need
to flash your device's stock ROM and
restore from a backup if you had one before
the apps started auto installing. That's for
the experts I believe.
