Is there a program that is causing the pop up ads on the 3D and if so how do I get rid of it?
Not root yet (waiting on Myn) so I cannot use ad blocker.
Uninstall it.

You can use CPU spy (i think thats the name...never had to use it myself but i hear its good for runaway apps) or maybe even the battery info tool built in to see what, if anything, is running after a fresh boot besides stock apps. Once you isolate the item you can remove the faulting APK and hopefully be in the clear. If its an APK you just got to have i'd root and install AdFree by Big Tin Can to install and maintain an actively updated hosts file that routes all typicall ad call's back to the local machine (set address 127.0.0.1).
Hope this helps some man!
Pop ups....? Seems like some sort of malware app.

It's some apps that are giving you the ads. Unistall the last app you installed.

Some developers are doing this type of advertising now. Check comments for the complaints. I know there are apps to detect some of these advertising methods but I can't remember them. I've had it happen with some live wallpapers and games. If I'm not mistaken, I've had it happen with at least 1 app from the GO Dev team (maybe a wallpaper they did? Can't remember).
Thanks for the responses but if I knew which app was doing the ads I would delete it.
How do I find out which app is causing the ads which are on the notification bar?

Ads in the notification bar are called AirPush ads (new company introduced them). There's an app called AirPush-Detector that will tell you what apps are using it. See if that helps.
My Prime has these leadbolt ads that pop up quite often. Will someone please help me remo e them?

I've been getting the same ads, but Adaway isn't doing anything. Could Adfree be any different?
Also, I think these are tied to a specific app I've installed - anyone know which one might be causing this? I've never seen ads like this in the notification tray - they show up with a big green "+" sign.

if this is something that's been occurring recently, check the notifications for any recent apps you installed.
adaway works great for me and dramatically increases browser page loading speeds. does a great job at eliminating ads.
This typically happens when you download a free app. Paying for the app should not give you pop ups. In my past i havent had any luck with ad blocker. I use adhoc on my HTC Sensation.
I had the same thing. And they are right. It is from a free app. I tried everything to get rid of it and could not even when I deleted all apps I installed. I ended up resetting to factory and reinstalling apps. No problems since.
Download addons detector from the market and see what app is the culprit of the leadbolt ads. Then uninstall it.
Ad Network Detector by Lookout Labs.
They're almost always spot on at identifying the programs that are causing the annoying issues.
Adaway works great for me aswell
I would have recommended adfree (rq root) but it reduces flash functionality for video playback on some websites
Installed "airpush detector" from the market and discovered that Tablet Wallpapers was the app giving me the spam in my notification bar. Uninstalled it, so hopefully that will do the trick!

All the above mentioned apps worked for me as well. I am ad free now! The best for me was Ad Network Dedector whitch found all kinds of apps on my Prime. Good luck!
If an app is sending ads to your notifications bar, you should find out which app it is, leave the most negative review possible regarding the notification bar ads (but be polite, people ignore reviews filled with curse words) and then uninstall the app.
If people don't use an app because it has notification ads, then app developers will stop using this method of advertising to promote their products.
Honestly though, Google needs to step in and stop people from spamming the notifications bar with advertisements. That area is for important information, not crap like "50% Off Downloadable Armor in Blood & Glory!"
Ad Notification
Tablet wallpapers was the culprit for me as well.
Download Addons detector from the market this might solve your problem....
You really need to change your title. I though it said infected with aids
Also go with adaway works really good.

I use airpush detector, it works quite well, I haven't had any apps that push without it identifying them so far.
'ad.leadboltads.net' is Malware

Lookout Security & Antivirus found mine in ChargeBar Free Edition,
ChargeBar came embedded in the NottachTrix 2.3.0 ROM.
I installed it (NottachTrix) and it (ChargeBar) didn't update for 3 months, then, BANG.
I've deleted ChargeBar's update, moved it from system apps to apps, deleted it, and the browser pop open 'ad.leadboltads.net' still persists.
Lookout Security & Antivirus can not find the new location of the malware, they do not have a forum.
By the very definition and behaviour, this is malware, and, ChargeBar (Asgard Casino Apps) is involved in the distribution of malware.
Asgard Casino Apps distributes 34 apps that behave this way.
They are using Google to distribute this malware, abet, that app is benign in its origin, its a pipeline, or conduit for malware.
Sneaky F##kers aren`t they.........
#1) I would like to get this crap off my phone.
#2) I need to bring this to Google's attention, and have the developer and apps banned from the Play store.
Sooo, starting with #1,,,how do I get this crap off my phone!
NOTE:
I will be linking to this post in the NottachTrix post, I'm asking the developers to to move ChargeBar from the ROM zip.
My MBAM forum post: https://forums.malwarebytes.org/inde...06#entry764184
Any solution to this?
I'm just having the same issues and none of these suggestions helped.. really dont wanna factory reset..
I installed a few apps from the google app marketplace over the last week or two, and found I'm getting random advertisements popping up under my phones notifaction list ( Where you can drag down the menu at the top of your phones screen and see recent events. ) There are also buttons being placed in empty locations on my phones main tabs, like shortcuts to applications or widgets, and they link me to the web. ( I have multiple browsers and just close the box when it asks which browser to use. )
I don't understand where this is coming from or what I have to do to get rid of it... I understand that some apps have advertisements, but those are only while the application is actually opened and being used I thought. This has been sending me messages waking me up when I'm sleeping, It's kinda sorta bull**** lol... And I don't think I need an anti virus program constantly zapping my Notes resources, but yeah...
Any comments? What do I do to pinpoint which program is causing it, and will removing that app even fix the problem?
Seems you got airpush install somehow, download add on detector from the market
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Make sure you post which app it was so we can all avoid it. 1 star it in the market and say it has AirPush and to avoid it before you uninstall it please!
Hello everyone.I'm looking for a consistent method to fully disabled the system area ads that many apps make use of and this at the end goes far beyond spam.
In ICS we could uninstall the adservice and ads were gone. Jb doesn't have this but you can disable individual notifications which is still not enough since the service still runs in memory.
I haven't managed to locate this service or to find any method to disable ads (except from notifications option) so, if someone finds a way, please share
Root your phone and install AdFree Android from market. Ads will disappear - both in applications and taskbar.

Nope, that will only work for ads within the app. I have always been using it but taskbar ads use a different agent

That did not do the work.
says it can not detect anything, when you run it it loads up but does not find anything framework related to these ads.
for instance i always wanted to know how to remove them aswell but couldnt find a way very annoying they are they start up every time you reboot.
for instance a game called : CK Zombies installs its own ads service that runs in the background constantly called :GluNotificationService
Real annoying and no way to perminently remove that i have found yet.
Sometimes when you download an app it starts to pop up ads on the notification bar all day long. When you uninstall that app those ads go away. I uninstalled all recent apps I downloaded but the add keeps popping up. Is there a way to find out which app is doing this? Or is there a way to find out where or what is triggering this if the app in question has been removed?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Jep, lots of "free" apps show ads while they are running so either there's still an app running as background service which causes that or you caught rogue adware somehow.
There are some adware catching apps around and I had tested one of them; unfortunately I can't remember the name . But since Android 4.2 (?) there's some help build-in:
If you have such an ad bar in your notifications, hold-tap it until a one-point menu "App Details" pops up. Tick that and you'll get to the details of the app which causes this notification. From here you know which app annoys you, you can stop / terminate, deactivate and uninstall it.
HTH.
