"The basic idea behind open source is very simple. When programmers on the Internet can read, redistribute, and modify the source for a piece of software, it evolves.

* NoUSSD

market download NoUSSD prevents malicious websites from using the recently discovered tel: URL attack and potentially remotely wipe your device.

NoUSSD will intercept all USSD codes and give you the choice to not dial them. Regular phone numbers will be sent automatically to your favorite dialer.

Please visit this test page on your device:
