Throughout much of the summer, I've been getting these alerts on my Ashion browser with Far Eastern text. I'm not of Asian descent and don't speak or understand any Oriental languages. However, just yesterday I noticed something on my calendar apps.

There's someone calling himself pandong4545 at hotmail dot com who seems to have a calendar on my smartphone, and have no idea how he got there. Are you aware of any way to get this person off my phone, I suspect he's doing bad things with it. Thank you so much.

Check your Settings-accounts- and see if you can find the email for that account and remove it and also clear data and cache for the Ashion Browser. That might not completely clear whoever out but see if it helps.

when other people's things go on your calendar. probably means it's synced to your phone. go to settings and check all the accounts that are registered to your device

Factory data reset if nothing else helps

to be honest yes I believe a backup and factory reset is the best to do in this situation. see if it still occurs after.

just back up your important files and do a factory set of your phone

I guess you could try backup before factory reset and if you get the problem back after restoring your data then you would just have to factory reset again but the only way to be sure to get rid of the problem is to do the factory reset without bringing the data back on your phone.

Please follow these steps .
factory rest. do it 2 times in a row
then delete all new apps .installed right up to when this start to show up.
