As the title says, went into my keyboard settings and found this keyboard installed.
Cannot see any way of removing it as its not listed under applications.
Anyone else have this installed!?

It comes bundled with Talkback, it's an accessibility keyboard. You can remove Talkback from system/app with a root explorer application or try force stopping it

Hi nikzDHD, I too had problem with this Eyes-Free keyboard. Everytime it used to get selected as default keyboard automatically and I have to manually change it to Swype every time. This used to happen atleast 10-15 times a day which was frustrating. I tried a lot to uninstall/freeze this app but I couldn't find it at all.
Thanks for your suggestion. I've un-installed the Talkback update and now the Eyes-Free keyboard is gone. All is well now

So I use the Amazon app store and GetJar for free 'paid' apps. Some of these apps are showing up in "My Library" on my Google Android Market account. Is there a way to remove them from the Android Market account?
One recent problem is Wave Launcher which used to be free on GetJar. I don't see it listed anymore on GetJar and I can't even buy it from the Android Market since it thinks it's already purchased (but declines the 'install' saying it's not purchased). A 'delete' button like in the Amazon app store library would solve all of this...
Short of changing google accounts, I don't see any options on how to fix this. Anyone have any ideas? The problem is on my market library, not my phone (I know how to remove market links, etc.). Thanks.
I to have this problem its very annoying their has to be a way to clean it up.
I actually used the 'report' app function on the google market and got a reply back. They have "forwarded your case to a specialist to begin working to resolve your issue as soon as possible". We'll see what comes of it. Amazon's app store has a simple delete button in that library. It doesn't seem like that would be too hard to implement.
did you ever get a reply for this?
would love to be able to remove all the apps i just simply try for the sake of testing and i want them gone.....
listen to your users G!
I believe Titanium Backup can do this if you are rooted.

Go on...
You can "fix" market links with it by long pressing on the app in question.

On the website I don't see an option, but it is possible on your phone.
I am not sure if all versions of the play store have this option (I am using Jelly Bean 4.1.2):
When I open the play store on my phone I can remove previous installed apps from the list.
Go to: Play Store > My Apps > All
There you can remove an app by tapping the Ø icon

Yeahp. It works.
I deleted some yesterday on my mobile, but they were still on my web "Other apps in my library".
Today, I deleted some again and reloaded the webpage. They disappeared.
Thanks for the tip.
Ok, maybe it needs some time to sync. Great it works!

I have this issue as well--phone app has no provision for deleting the apps, on JB ROM.
Does anybody know what this is?i always get it when i turn the internet connection on.

that does not look good. maybe you got yourself a virus there.
you should check your installed apps for suspicious / fake ones. also have a look at the app list in titanium backup, which will also show apps, that do not show up in the app drawer.
but in general, if i were you, i would fully wipe the device, including the internal and external sd card, flash your rom again and instead of restoring apps from a backup, let them re-install from the play store (only safe ones of course).
maybe someone that can read chinese can tell you the exact contents of that notification, but i am 97% sure that it is not something good and your personal data and privacy might be at stake.
you havent at any time installed hotmail app of google play have you??
I had similar thing happen, in chinese, and after debugging the system i narrowed it down to the hotmail app, i was getting like 40 or 50 empty mssge boxes a day, once i uninstalled it, it stopped.
From the screenshot, that is advertisement in Chinese language.
I would recommended you to recall the last application that you have install to the phone, remove it and see did it help?
At the same time, both applicationa that can be found in Google Play may help to prevent similar issue happened in future. ^^

- Ad Network Detector

Both freeware below that you can grab from Play Store can assist to list down the installed apps by date:
AppZorter Lite for TouchWiz
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.demidoes.appzorter.lite
Easy Uninstaller
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.infolife.uninstaller
Hope this help.

Good thing you've solved the problem.
I assume you were receiving Airpush ads; and to prevent this happening in the future, and also for others who come across these, I recommend Addons Detector from the Play Market. It finds the culprit app.
Hi, has anyone else all of sudden have a Facebook (Build 140579) download bar on their notification bar that will not go away even after a reboot? Its been apparently tying to download for the past couple hours and its not coming from the Google store since its not updating from there.
hey me too!! found this thread on google... I don't know what this facebook download is.
I tried closing apps like facebook, google store, browser.. everything. Still there.
Here's a list of my running apps:
whatsapp, viber, wssynclnps, software update, settings, MAPServiceSamsung, GoogleServices, Media, Remote Controls, Maps, Google Play Store, S Suggest, Email, SecPhone, Simple Alarm clock, Stock Daemon(EUR), S Voice, Swype Beta 1.4
Tried closing most of them but can't get rid of it. I tried disabling mobile data, nothing. Even tried to uninstall facebook (don't use it tbh), nothing.
Galaxy S3 here.
ok, found more info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189262
it appears you can tap and hold the notification and then click app info, it's the Download Manager process. If you clear data and force stop, the weird facebook notification will disappear for good.
Thanks, did just that and it went away. Hopefully for good since my battery was getting drained faster trying to download nothing.

I don't have active sync on, and cleared data several times. It's been off now for 10 min, fingers crossed.

Same problem here
i'm on a galaxy nexus and am experiencing the same thing. restarting doesn't work, and force closing the download manager only temporarily stops the problem.
EDIT: what seemed to work for me was to go to long press for app info clear data and then force stop the download manager. hasn't come back... yet
Happening on Verizon HTC Rezound with Android 4.0.3. Rebooted, uninstalled Facebook updates (can't uninstall the original version), reinstalled updates - no change. Long pressing it does nothing.

I finally killed this by pest using the download manager in Settings>Applications>All>Download Manager and stopping the process.
Long pressing the notification didn't work.
Be interesting to know what or who has caused this"bug" and if it was malicious in any way
its facebook update

Hello,
I have a pixel XL updated to the android beta, and I wanted to donwload the Google news app. This app is not available in my country so I went to a repository and downloaded an APK. I installed it, and everything works as usual, the app is running smoothly, but when I close it and leave the phone idle for a few minutes the APP dissapears from the launcher. If I try to install it again the phone tells me that is already installed and I can update it, if I do that the app appears again on the launcher and I can use it again.
Can anyone help me with this? should I block permissions for Google Play services (I think that is what is messing with my apps)? or it is possible to install something to prevent this? maybe a modded apk?

Have you tried changing the launcher? Since you are using a beta, it might be a bug within the launcher.

No, Still looking at it
Obviously the app is not available in your country through the play store. The play store has that function where it verifies apps which I think is called Play Protect. Of you opted in, it could be that.

That is because the location of you play store is still set to your country, you have to change it in options. I can't do that because I have credit in the play store and doing so will take it away
