My logs recently showed the following user-agent:

samsung-gt-s5620 UNTRUSTED/1.0

Why would a user-agent have untrusted in caps in its name?

Possibly because the phone considers the browser an untrusted application.

The User-Agent is a HTTP header sent by browsers. Thus, everything can be put in it. It is a decision made by the browser manufacturer.
