    this sounds more like a software bug than a virus to me. And it's not possible to format from a PC without special tools

    Can mobile phones even be reformatted? Only thing I think one can do is upgrade/downgrade firmware, but a reformat? If your system freezes when you hook up your mobile phone to it it might be that your SD Card has gone rotten.

    No, I don't, and I very much doubt it will be publicly available. It will be issued only to manufacturer licensed service centres.
