Wow. That sucks. Haven't seen that yet. I wonder if you opted in somehow.

Almost positive it's been doing it since day one

You downloaded an app that uses airpush ads.. you have to download an app called "airpush detector" or something along those lines to find which app is pushing you ads like this.

I would put $100 on a bet that says it's the app right there in your recently used apps "MP3 Music download".

I would agree. Although AirPush needs to die. Excellent idea for an ad platform though

I had that to and found out tap tap revenge was the problem. Uninstalled and all is good now

Weird, my girlfriend has that on her Nexus and she doesn't get ads. At least she hasn't yet.

I believe you have to agree to allow them to send the ads though. So, there must be something in the apps that you can uncheck(kinda like computer programs that want to install toolbars).

I had the same mp3 app and I also got the adds. Like everyone else said, get rid of that app and you'll be fine

I had ads that would pop up in the notification panel as well. Sure enough I had this very program, once I uninstalled I haven't had an ad.

Those ads come from that mp3 music download app that you have in your notification bar.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium

If you guys decide to use that app again, check in its settings and see if you have the ability to uncheck ads, or something. I am fairly certain they can't just push ads to your phone without you "agreeing" to it. Otherwise I would report the app to Google as malicious. Then, at least to stay on the market it would have to give you the option.

Download "airblock" from the market and it won't happen again no matter what crapware you install.

This is true, I downloaded an app knowing it had airpush ads, downloaded airblock and ran it (you can then uninstall it) and haven't had an issue with it.

Best Bit torrent app?

Ive been looking for a bit torrent app that doesn't require having it on my laptop or signing up with a login. What's everyone using? So far I'm thinking of buying the bittorrent client by new freedom apps its 4.99 so what's the best.
I would download movies and tv shows maybe some mp3 files mostly over wifi and hopefully doesn't seed from other users phones just servers. Cause I don't want my phone getting seeded..... Any ideas ?

Anyone used AndTor?
Swarm is the best BT client on Android EVER, because it actually works well, and the developer is great.
I use Torrent-fu but you could always just get LogMeIn and have full access to your server and can add and remove torrents or really anything else that way. Works great.
Apologies... after reading the OP again this solution will not work for what you are trying to accomplish.
AndTorrent works great for me.

Do any of these torrent apps support magnet links and if so can you delete the tracker from the link before you start d/ling? Or better yet can you just add the links to the app manually? cause then i can delete the tracker for sure. Man this would be awesome.
I keep getting "error: null" on my torrents in swarm. never more than "downloading from 0 of 0 peers". Any help?

It doesn't...are you referring to the fact that you have to allow installation of applications from unknown sources? That is totally different from root access.

It would definitely be smart not to use that particular apk.
I like it quite a lot, works very smooth, grabs art from lastfm and scrobbles.
I don't think there is a way to skip to a certain part of a song.. I think dragging from left to right would be nice (like in mvideoplayer)
this might very well get me to switch from using poweramp. once a widget comes out in a update hopefully then i'll switch for sure
i've got it on my desire hd, and love it.
but i wish it had lock screen functionality
really good stuff on him for making it. i really like it
I love it
Very slick
I've spent the last few weeks trying to get album art for all of my music so it looked good but since i've been using this, i prefer the pictures it brings up in the background, i'm now looking for a way to get rid of the album art lol, can anyone help?

There are many legit things that use torrents.

Its not that you can't install apps. U just can't use some apps that download torrents or I don't know what else? Even the sites I visit it hangs seems like its checking something, I have the international galaxy s 2 and same apps dont have any problems. Don't start with the proccessor being different. I have the tmibile gs2 and it also has no problem.

I can see if the stock browser wont let you download torrents, though. You might want to use another browser, like opera or firefox. The stock browser doesnt play well with some torrents.

Have I caught a virus?

The title says it all... I couldn't find information about it anywhere. Yesterday I was looking at some sweet live wallpapers on the market and suddenly I found a good one... But I had to buy the full version to customize it so I searched on google for the apk, found one, installed it... After installing I realised there was 2 new internet shortcuts on my home screen .. Now this morning, I got this notification, "Grab your iPad3", is that a virus? How do I get rid of this b.s?
Any help is more than appreciated

I had something similar happen to me on my Thrive a while back. Turned it an app I installed piggy backed an add thing onto my device. Not sure if that is exactly what is happening to you but try out this app. It will tell you if an app uses a few specific app frameworks that may be responsible so you can remove the offending apps. Best of luck!
Which apk did you install? One similar or a cracked version of a paid app?

id never use any app that uses airpush. rather buy a paid version. do people really think we'd like to be notified every 5 minutes that we've won an iPad, or that we'd like their app even more?

Yup, same with Lookout. However, you can disable the "virus checker" and just leave the phone recovery portion installed.
