Your Android phone is a SNITCH: Wi-Fi bug makes you easy to track
Following things are found, In a separate experiment carried out on a single (only one) device by friends (skilled group) with scientific instruments privately,Even asleep, your mobe could be blabbing your every move
Your mobile device could be compromising your privacy by broadcasting your location history over the air, even when it is in sleep mode, according to new research by the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
Of particular concern are newer Android gadgets, specifically those running Android 3.1 "Honeycomb" or later. That version of the Google OS introduced a feature called Preferred Network Offload (PNO), which has a habit of broadcasting the names of the last 15 Wi-Fi networks a device has joined, even when the screen is off.
The idea is to conserve battery by allowing a phone to connect to known Wi-Fi networks even while in sleep mode, since Wi-Fi uses less power than the mobile data radio. The problem, the EFF says, is that your wireless network history can give a worryingly accurate and thorough picture of your movements.
1) Even with Wi-Fi Network search is disabled, device got connected to unsecured Wi-Fi Network and transmitted few packets when is powered-on.
2) Microphone remains always on, no possible way is found to switch-off rather than taking it to electronics work bench. The state of microphone after switching off the device was not checked.
3) At certain intervals, camera clicks automatically and it does not save any capture pic (hard-copy) on device storage.
Very sever, but a few bugs are also found in latest version on Android. Preferred not to say a word.
Rest of the experience of listening music and watching videos was quite satisfactory.
I would not be answering any further questions or query.
I would rather say faulty device.
