This partition is used to install the applications they want after a FOTA. I love the "/system/hidden/" + cscCode + "/hidden_app"... not shady at all...pic.twitter.com/l2BigmQ5nx

To know if it is a Chinese model they used their sales codes. Your sales code is located in "system/csc/sales_code.dat". Today, they have a isChinaModel() method. How long before having a isIndianModel() or isFrenchModel()?pic.twitter.com/pQgl5TTCff

To sumarize: -
@SamsungMobile is mounting a "hidden" partition only during the first boot, like this you have less chance to notice. - They install without your consent the apps they want - This apps are in a folder called "hidden_app"... think about the naming...Show this thread
