To autorun, the Trojan monitors the following system events:

  • android.net.conn.CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE—Internet connection or disconnection.
  • android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED—operating system loading.

After the successful launch, Android.HiddenAds.710 registers a broadcast receiver to receive the android.intent.action.SCREEN_ON system event and thus monitor when the device screen powers up. Every time the screen of the infected smartphone or tablet is active, the Trojan downloads and displays ads using the com.google.android.gms.ads.InterstitialAd class.
