If you ran the cleaner and anti virus apps then there is no virus on your phone.

I contacted Verizon because apparently the virus wasn't cleaned and started affecting my stuff so I had to contact them and they said that I should do the factory reset so now everything is fixed but I still hope it's gone we will see, thanks for yalls opinion guys.

I am glad to hear that you got your device back to a virus free, working order from the factory reset.

When I was reading this I assumed you had an iDevice and I was like "this kid is stupid. iDevices don't get viruses xD" But, then I figured that you had an Android.

You should have no worries if the anti virus on the phone said its clean

You can always just double check and install another anti virus and see if it tells you the same thing.

it took my LG keyboard away and would end up not being able to cut on phone that's after I cleaned it multiple times.
