On the Android phone, if I turn off wifi and mobile data, will my phone be safe from hackers?
Possibly safer, but if you are still connected to the cell network, they can call, or SMS.
Turn the phone off. Safer still. But the phone is still on the network. Take the battery out. Safer still.
But you could still be a victim of ‘phone porting’.
Rather than try and explain the technology. I’ll just leave this information here: https://www.cyber.gov.au/sites/default/files/2023-03/personal_cyber_security_guide_next_steps.pdf
