Note that should your Android device be infected with the Hummingbad malware, the only known way to remove it would be to Factory Data Reset your device, and in doing so, you wipe clean ALL personal data, information, and files from your device, including (but not limited to) your captured photos and videos, your accounts and account information, your personal files, your SMS text message history, your contacts, etc. It is for this reason that it is IMPERATIVE that you back up (i.e. save on a different device) any irrecoverable data before factory data resetting your device, else this data will be lost FOREVER!
