Possible false positive (Android app)
« on: December 04, 2016, 01:23:39 PM »
Hello,

I got a report about possible false positive.
OP said an Android app below was flagged as malware.
This is an official app from SHARP CORPORATION (phone manufacturer).
ttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.sharp.android.regulatoryinfo.v1

Could you check it out?

Thanks.

It's an Android app; I don't know an official way to download APK from Google Play.
Of course I can search & download it from unofficial stores, but I don't consider it a good way to determine it is FP or not; that's why I post it here.
