Summary
Singlejump.G (renamed Onehop.G) is Symbian SIS file trojan that replaces system files and many 3rd party applications with corrupted binaries from SymbOS/Doomboot.A and SymbOS/Bootton.A torjans. These components prevent phone from rebooting, so if your phone is infected with Singlejump.G, it is critical not to reboot the phone or click any changed icons. Singlejump.G sends also SymbOS/Doomboot.A to the first device it finds with Bluetooth.
