      cc @AndroidAuth @AndroidPolice @androidandme @Androidheadline @AndroidPolice @xdadevelopers @AndroidSPIN @Gadgets360 @TheHackersNews you have a subject here to write an article. It's not normal to have this kind of backdoor in an end user product...

      The best thing in this story is the password. It's angela (see the reference?). This backdoor is here intentionally. When the fiction become a reality. Good luck @getpeid, you will need a very good explanation. cc @whoismrrobotpic.twitter.com/IJgsu6hCEc

      Once again this app is a system app made by @Qualcomm. So possibly a lot of @Qualcomm based phones are affected. Can you open Settings -> Apps -> Menu -> Show system apps and search EngineerMode in the list to check? If you find the app reply to this tweet with your device model

          I'm still waiting more samples to confirm but yes EngineerMode is installed on @OnePlus 5T. The DiagEnabled activity is here, so the backdoor too :)
