So maybe two days ago I rebooted my phone and got a weird notification. A white star with a circle in the center telling me I "have 1 new message." it brings you to ad.leadboltapp.net and quickly forwards you to addjump.com. I can't figure out what's causing this. Anyone have any ideas?
I've done a complete wipe, relfash, and partial restore with TB only to have it come back.

Hi Mate
Without more info im a little unsure it does look like a potential adware program. When you flashed did you wipe all cache from the phone it may be the program is hidden in the cache folders.
Yes, sir. All cache, all stats... everything you can do from cw recovery. the only thing left I can think of is reflash with odin and reinstall apps one at a time and rebooting after each installation.
What other info would help?
Did you find out what this was? I had the same thing just now. Also had some strange "Service messages" lately.
It's probably an app with Airpush or whatever it's called that puts ads in your notification bar. There's an app to detect apps that use the technology. If that's what it is, uninstall the app. If not, you may need to do a full wipe/RUU/restore or whatever you prefer.

Look for AirPush Detector in the Market. Install and run it, and it will tell you which app is responsible.
Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, AirPush detector didn't find. I'm going to move to a new ROM soon anyway and probably won't re-install half the apps I have. So hopefully I'll lose whatever it was.
Thanks again.
Never figured it out. I wiped everything and only installed a quarter of my apps. My guess is that one of my apps was being naughty. Not sure which one, I don't have the patience to determine which one.

Well then you may be out of luck. It most likely came from an app that you got from somewhere other then the market. Not the best idea.
It's some stupid app you installed. Lol. Also it's rogue*

Never had any none market apps.
I had the same issue and used AirPush detector which identified one of my themes used with Go Launcher as the spammer.
You can also try "Addons Detector". It is supposed to be more effective than AirPush Detector.
I´ve removed all the live wallpapers and themes that downloaded after installed my Go Launcher and it functioned... I have not received any "star" in my status bar in the last two days... Thank you to all who contributed in this thread

He says, while he sneakaly downloads your saved market credit card #....
I'm looking for a reason to call Wells Fargo so try me lol. Jk.
And I downloaded it. Thanks.
Working great.
I just backed up my old market with titanium backup in case this one is not working good.
But working good so far.
Thanks for update.
Really needed this PIN code security before purchases.
This new update kills my 3g data again
But works great on wifi

Anyone receiving "!" when downloading anything with the new market?
Didn't know the source of the .apk (no offense OP). So I got it from androidpolice. MD5 match on both files. I've had 2 FC using new market already tho. I like the idea of PIN code for purchase.
It's working great for me! Thanks!
Nice. Works a lot better than my other version.
Thanks.
Working great for me, love the PIN feature. Uninstalled n reinstalled a few apps to make sure everything worked. Very quick.

Why are a handful of my apps that are clearly installed, listed under not installed... then when you click on them, they only say open; so even the market knows they're installed, just not under MY APPS???
Already tried clearing data/chace for Market... no dice. Any Thoughts??
Try Titanium Backup's market fix
Several times now I've opened up the market and it shows only 2 apps in the My Apps section...I then have to clear data for the market app and then reopen and all is fine. Anyone else having this happen? It's not a huge issue, just slightly annoying. I'm running Alien #4.
i'm getting force close on this.
Is this an official release from Google or a modified app. by a developer?
I have version 3.0.27 installed but it does not updated automatically to the new version! why?
Firstly I have a HTC one S, stock, not rooted.
I have disabled everything twitter related, however, in better battery stats, the process "tpd" is still showing and using a fair bit of my battery, does anyone know what is going on and how to truly disable twitter?

I have snowstorm and sense weather syncing every few hours and gmail push as usual, I haven't got anything else syncing.
Disabled most of sense apps apart from gallery, dialer/people, messaging, weather and a few other things.
I don't know for sure but I would guess you haven't disabled Twitter completely. There's got to be some app that's still running in the background. You need to root your phone and start uninstalling things.
Thanks for the reply
Everything that I can see related to twitter is disabled.
- twitter
- twitter for HTC sense
- TwitterAPIEngine
Is there anything else I should be looking for?
I have also disabled all the sense friends stream stuff.
Really don't want to root my phone just yet.
Try downloading Watchdog Lite from the Play Store. This app shows you which apps are using the most CPU cycles (and therefore consuming the most power). This could maybe allow you to identify which app this "tpd" process is associated with. (Having said that, BetterBatteryStats does usually show the app name as well as the process name, as you can see in the other entries in your screenshot, so if BBS couldn't identify it, Watchdog might not either. But the Lite version is of course free, so you may as well try it)
Ok thanks for the suggestion, will give that a shot and see
Just got a reply from someone else there regarding this and this is what he said:
It looks like tdp is just a system process betterbatterystats hasn't recognised, like surfaceflinger but added by HTC or just a new ICS process. (the PID is 0?)
If you look under Settings>Power>Battery use>Android System>included packages it can be one of those.
All the twitter related stuff will start off as something like com.htc.engine.twitter or com.twitter.Android in betterbatterystats. TDP is also a 3rd party twitter app last updated in 2010, that's probably where the twitter link came from?

And I just checked there and this is what comes under "android system":
As well as system UI being listed there.
I will email the developer of better battery stats to see what the "tpd" process is.
I've been trying to search but haven't found anything on this issue. A couple of weeks ago I noticed a number of apps that appeared on my All Apps list without me ever even installing them.

The two by martetrut and the casino one. I tried searching my phone for any trace of these apps and found nothing other than their appearance on this list.
Today, I looked at my list and now more mystery apps have appeared, with another app by that martetrut dev.
I downloaded lookout and Norton and ran several scans and they didn't pick up anything.... I'm a little concerned.
Anyone have any idea on what's causing this or had a similar experience? I'd appreciate any help/input.
If it matters, I'm completely stock.

Someone may be using your account to download apps. go to play.google.com on your computer, click on the gear in the upper right corner and go to My Orders & Settings.
The Orders tab can show you when the apps in question were downloaded.
Click on the Settings Tab and look under devices to make sure only your phone is listed.
Unfortunately I don't think there is a way to delete or unauthorize a device, but at least you'll know if someone else is causing those apps to show up or not.
Best thing to do is change your account password.

Yes, this was my first thought. I would guess someone is using your account to download apps on another device.
as other users said, it's probably someone else using your account.
maybe you gave/sold your old android phone to someone without wiping data.
btw, changing your password can be a good solution
I've looked around and found no answer for this.
I'm on Miui V4.1
I'm getting the error "Insufficient Storage Available" when trying to download/update apps
I put the code "df" into commands and got this result, which shows that everything should be pretty good, but IDK whats happening.

Ok...Push a apk or two in your data/app folder and set proper perms then reboot. Afterwards try to update your app(s) or dl a new one from the GPlay.

After doing all that I had to wipe cache/data for Google Play Store since I got some 942 errors.
Then it did come up with a notification saying something along the lines of Low on storage, some phone functionality may be unusable.
After that, I downloaded and installed a "big" app like Temple Run (23mb) and it seems to be good.
It's really awkward at this point. It seems to only be the Google Search app that gives me the insufficient error.
I've installed 3+ apps randomly from the market, and they all are good, just not Google Search.
Thanks doug.

I get it only with the Facebook app.
I have no idea what I did so now everything that was on the right side (menu, submit, etc) is now on the left side. The URL bar and etc, which was more towards the left originally is now on the right. I'm sure it's a setting issue but I have no idea what to change.
hello, still need help with this. basically ... use to be on the right, now it's on the left and because of it, everything else is being reversed in placement.

Wow. I had no idea that was even possible. Is it just for those two apps? If so, then go into settings and clear the data for both of them.

Yeah, I already tried those suggestions but it still doens't fix it...so seems like some system issue. I thought it would be something to LEFT HAND related? but it doesn't seem to be unless if I am looking at something different. It's not all apps but some apps. I didn't root or anything yet and AE6...forgot when it exactly happen.
GMail
Youtube
Play (Music)
facebook
seems to be affected...
Looks like you have your setting set to Right to Left, instead of standard Left to Right.
Did you try checking device locale (not language)?
