Unusual message appearing on my screen

Hey, today i wtinessed a very strange message on my phone, my phone was locked and i got my phone out of my pocket and it had a message saying "i now have control of your phone. i can hear everything you say". once i unlocked the key pad it disappeared and i havnt seen it since.
it wasnt in a sms format, more of a screensaver, but my phone has not been jail broken and i do not have a screensaver on it. so it has baffled me.
has anybody else encountered this problem?
many thanks
Brett

Hi,
Lets break this down.. You are saying that you are getting a msg on your screen displaying this odd msg... It most likely a joke by a friend/family member. Has it only shown up once? Or is it when ever you screen goes into lock mode?
Check to see if there a wallpaper set with this msg as the actual picture. Change your wallpaper. Unless you phone is unlocked I don't know of a way for anyone to access your phone via through the air.
1)Change wallpaper then hit the sleep/wake button to see wallpaper
2)Turn off wifi when not in use. You only need to turn on when needed. Conserves battery also.
But if you are truly concerned just make sure you have the latest Itunes update ON your computer then connect your phone and do a Backup. Refer to article below on how to do this.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 Backup "Backing Up, updating, and restoring your iPhone and iPod touch software"
After you are sure you backed up and synced your contacts, music, applications etc, etc. Just do a complete restore of the phone. Good luck!

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot

When I try to connect a USB cable a message appears on the screen

When I try to connect a USB cable a message appears on the screen saying that one or more USB devices are consuming to much energy and due to this the USB port were deactivated.
What should I do to solve this problem?
Do not forget is only a merely USB cable from a texas calculator, I have experienced to with an USB extension, and the same problem appears, I have tried to connect directly a USB memory stick and the IMAC do not recognise is presence, or appears thesame mesage as with the cable.

Updated information:
I have perfomed as rkaufmann87 instruct me but without any success.
Then I made some more tests:
I have tried to connect three diferent types (Ipad usb cable; TI-Nspire CX CAS usb cable and an ordinary extension usb cable) of usb connectors cables and all of them with the same behaviour.
Viewing the IMAC from backside and looking to the usb ports from the left to the rigth the behaviour of the USB ports are diferent.
the two first more to the left when we try to connect a USB cable, a message appears on the screen, sayng that USB devices are consuming to much energy and due to this the USB port were deactivated (This is more or less the translation from Portuguese language).
The ones more to the rigth nothing happens, simply are dead, no message and no charge the IPAD, no connect the USB stick.
I really need yuor support, this IMAC is from November 2012.

I have my ipod nano 6th gen. I cannot sync it, and this message appeared to the screen. " The ipod cannot be synced. The required folder cannot be found." how is it? Please help to fix this. thanks

How to fix my newly acquired ipod nano 6th gen? i cannot sync it because it always appear to my screen that it cannot be synced. the required folder cannot be found? how is it?

Is your iPod configured to sync photos? If so, try disabling the syncing of photos and see if the error message goes away.
Anything change with your iTunes library since the last time the Nano was able to successfully sync?

My iPad 3 has completely frozen up. 2 identical messages appear on the screen: "iCloud Backup This iPad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi."

I am a novice user of an iPad3. My iPad is currently frozen. The only things appearing on the screen are two identical message boxes:
"iCloud Backup
This iPad hasn't been backed up in 2 weeks. Backups happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked, and connected to Wi-Fi."
Please help me figure out how to get this resolved, as the device is now totally immobilized.

Somehow, the Message App on my MacBook Air had my iPhone and messages appearing on the screen without me even putting anything into the computer. This is a school computer, so it would be very intrusive and possibly bad if I has this. Suggestions?

Any suggestions on how to permanently delete my phone number from the app? It's very hard to navigate, so good description please.

Mountain Lion sets your Apple ID for Messages app, so you can use iMessage and you can see your messages from other iPhones, iPads and iPods touch with your Apple ID.
To disable this, open the Messages app, go to Messages menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > Accounts, choose iMessage in the sidebar and turn off this account

While using Firefox beta a message appeared on the screen that a security update was available. I clicked to download it and shortly received the message that the download failed and I should go to the Firefox website to download it.

I went to the website and could not find the update. How to do this?

I'm already running Foxfire Beta. The problem "went away" this morning when I restarted Foxfire. I got the Security Update bubble and and selected Update. The update downloaded and I restarted Foxfire to install it. All is ok.

I was renting a movie using iTunes on to my iPod. It downloaded perfectly. However halfway through the movie, a message appeared on my screen and said unable to load video. I've tried replaying it but it always stops at the same point.

Is there anything I can do

Invoice Receipt Warning Message Appear After Upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6

Hi Gurus,
We do upgrade from 4.6C to ECC6. And we do Invoice Verification base on Delivery (Vendor delivery number), in our business process there more than one Purchase Order has same Vendor Delivery Number while GR executed. But only one Purchase order related to Invoice verification, others PO are Free PO (no need Invoice Verification).
The problem is:
In SAP 4.6C, while execute Invoice base on Delivery (Vendor delivery), system automatic select only PO with Delivery (vendor) which related/allow invoice receipt.
In SAP ECC6, while execute Invoice base on Delivery (vendor delivery), all PO selected. So than there are warning messages appear (warning pop screen) for those PO not allow invoice Receipt (message M8035: PO item XXXXX does not allow invoice receipt), and at the end PO which allow Invoice receipt then appear for further Invoice Receipt process.
At overall, the final result SAP 4.6C and SAP ECC6 is same (only PO which allowed Invoice Receipt will processed further).
The Question are:
1. Why in ECC6 appear warning message, while in 4.6C no warning message ? Is there config to ignoring the warning message. I've try to maintain system message for M8035 (t-code: OMRM) to ignoring the pop screen, but can not created.
2. How do we make warning message dissapear (no need warning message), because if the PO's has hundred items so user need to click enter hundred times.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Tri Wicaksono

Hi,
could you please check whether the flag "GR-based IV" is set in the purchase orders?
If GR based-IV is ticked, then this pop-up cannot be suppressed.
If you would like to post the invoice first then GR-based IV should not be checked, otherwise this pop-up will always appear. I am afraid that this behaviour is standard.
Please, be aware that this feature is only available if you set in the Purchase Order item the 'GR-based IV' indicator:
   If the GR-IV flag is not set in the PO, then the system does not
   differentiate individual goods receipts. Please see the <f1> help
   for the field "GR-IV" in the PO item detail. Since the individual
   receipts are not differentiated, an invoice is not tied per se to
   an individual receipt and a goods receipt can be reversed despite
   an invoice receipt.
With the GR-IV flag set on in a PO, you can specify which goods
   receipt is being invoiced in an IR and which goods receipt is being
   reversed in a return. It is this correlation between goods receipts
   and invoices that enables you to specify for GR-IV PO's whether an
   item can be returned despite an invoice.
Please refer to the note :457511 Question 10.
Best regards
Erika
