[Q] Gameloft advertising in the Notifications screen - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What an application puts the annoying advertising for Gameloft in the Notifications screen?
Can it be frozen/uninstalled/disabled?

its a gameloft game not a system app...

Just disable the option from the gameloft game you are playing

I never play a game. ???

Maybe a screenshot would be more clarifying. Maybe we are not talking about the same thing. Post a screenshot, so we can see what you are talking about.

That's what shows up once or txice a day:

OP, can you translate what that message says in the screenshot?
Without knowing the meaning of the message, just by the looks of it, it seems to be some spam message promising you a gameloft game for something. It porbably does not even come from gameloft
Please translate so we can be sure.

1 free Gameloft game. Must be from an application he installed in his phone that gets access to internet, most likely from a game.

so yes, this is spam. OP - you installed some software that is trying to make you tap this "free" offer and then it will get some direct or indirect monetary gain from this action. This is most probably not coming from Gameloft.

shure it's from gameloft. By tapping on it, the link brings me to there website where you can buy games.

Well, you said you did not have any gameloft apps on your phone, so it is possible that Gameloft is paying money to whatever spam app displayed this message on your phone.
Did you try searching the app driver for an app that has an icon that looks like that + sign in your notification bar?
What apps have you installed recently? any of them fishy/spammy? like for example a calculator that needs access to the internet?

If there is a notification where can I find something like a logfile for the notifications?

[app] vlingo

Recently Google came out with an Voice Actions app that allows you to perform certain commands on your phone with speech.
Heres the Video
Cool Huh? But its only available for android 2.2.
Theres an app in the market called Vlingo, its completely free and you can do the exact same thing as Voice Actions app. I was blown away by the functionality and accuracy of this app. I just had to post it.
Heres a link to the app so you guys can try it out for yourself.

truly sucks for the people who paid 10 bucks for vlingo.... It is a great program though
I was trying this app out the other day actually, but I couldn't figure out how to get it to send texts via Google Voice instead of the phone's SMS.

yeah, i don't understand why this option hasn't been implemented with so many users on gv.
I think it sends text messages through your default messaging application. So if google voice is your default messaging application it should work.

[Q] getjar.android.client What's this?

Hi everybody,
maybe this is a stupid question, but I would like to understand why since I've installed GetJar app on my Nexus One, when I open Dalvik Debug Monitor I see the following process (please take a look at the screenshot).
Thank you in advance, I just would like to understand if there is something to worry about

I've noticed that Getjar runs constantly, even when not in use. That's why I freeze it with Titanium unless I actually need to use it.
Ehm... and did you have any side effect doing so? Is there anyone who can tell us why the hell getjar is always running? I wish it's nothing malicious.
Thank you for your answer jesusice

I've had no ill effects. I don't think it's malicious, I just think it's a poorly desgned app and since I use it infrequently I'd prefer for it not to be running contantly.
I think I'll do as you do, I'll freeze the app. Thanks again
Do you have the first version of Cut the Rope 1.0 installed? The one they gave away for free as a 0-day promotion. If I'm not wrong the getjar service is part of the Getjar app market much like an android market service. You can safely uninstall both Getjar app and the service after you install Cut the Rope. Hope this helps.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Draw something crazy unstable on leaked ICS

Is it just ICS, or did I screw up my phone?
I'm not really sure what you want to know. Post a screenshot or give a discription of the issue.

No it's not just you, mine is crazy too with this update. For one it's the update from Draw Something (there's crazy ads now) ,combined with the ad killer built in the ROM, not a good combo. Just my opinion.
Really hate the new update. Ads are so obnoxious. Zanga screwed it up badly.
It ran fine for me but deleted it after the new update when they requested access to my email. I declined and uninstalled. They decided they were going to email me anyways so I sent back a nasty email. They replied back with instructions on how to unsubscribe and I responded back with a picture showing no hyperlink on the unsubscribe. Zynga is a evil company and wants way too much access.

Wait a minute, what?!?!??
Access to your email, how? As in, your email address and email password?
And for what reason?
I dont play Draw Something so forgive my ignorance or I would look into this myself.
Definitely 2 to 3 times the ads now... I have stopped playing.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Just giving a warning. Freezing, force closes, crashing, etc. ICS may be a bad idea for draw something addicts. The new version of draw something was rock solid on GB before I flashed.
Or pay .99ยข and get ad free. Works on ics for me 100% lag free.

If you're using something like AdAway to block ads, add saturn.appadds.com to your hosts to remove the ads in Draw Something.

i paid for mine and still refuse to play anymore (after it was sold). Zynga is a bunch of douches, and not the nice kind that make a Va-Jay-Jay smell like a spring meadow.

[APP] Swapps - access your apps from anywhere on your phone!

I found this cool little app that lets you have a cute little slide-out menu so you can go to another app from the app you're currently using. It has favorite apps, recent apps, and all apps lists. You can assign a hotspot on any edge of the screen, so accidental menu opening rarely happens. The icon could use some work, though.

Hi guys.
In fact, you can set favorites in GYF (and you can hide apps, install themes, etc.)

Nice video. Some nice apps there. :good:
I'll be sure to add Glovebox (and Relaunch, mentioned by one of your viewers) soon to my launcher page, when I get around to updating it.
I knew about Glovebox and Flipaclip but the others are great... thanks.
