I know this is a bit unusual, but i couldnt find much help elsewhere. My S7 Edge has this weird google button that appears randomly. When pressed it redirects to a website (in Google Chrome) with the url "adsv123" and the "name" is Home123.

 

I havent had much success in finding it in my files either.

 

All help is appreciated!

Backup data, factory restore phone. If still exists, then it's part of the originally shipped ROM from Samsung and/or your phone's carrier. If it no longer exists, this points to it being a rogue/malicious app that was installed after the fact.
