Guys the app adaway and ad block doesn't block the ads in my apps.
Anybody knows why? Ofcourse my phone is rooted.
Have you stopped to consider some apps have ads built into them? Can't block those.

Try adfree android from playstore, it rides away all ads like a pony.

I did before on ics there was no prob.
Realy weird tried on many different apps still all got ads after updating it and restarting
I would recommend adblock plus to you. I used it but got tired of it consuming resources and made my phone somewhat slow.
Instead i downloaded Lucky Patcher by ChelpuS. There is an option in there to remove google ads (the app itself will figure out what apps that are installed and have google ads)
Works like a charm for me now without the annoying ads.
Ofcourse the downside is that it only discovers google ads, others will remain intact unless you use adblocker of some kind.
Cheers.
Thanks for the info, anybody who got more info would be pleased by sharing it

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!
Sent from my Transformer Prime using xda premium
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.

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..
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.
I recently switched from omega 43.3 to the latest Carbon rom.
Omega had built in ad blocking. So apps like xda free and BaconReader had no ads. Not even a black bar, nothing.
Now I'm on the Carbon ROM which uses 4.2.2, I have installed both adfree and adaway and they make the ads black sometimes but I can't get rid of the bars.
I know I should support the devs but I literally don't have 1.23 in my bank right now. Being unemployed sucks.
Any help is appreciated.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Omegas built in add blocking is a hosts file that has a list of ad hosts to block.
Adfree / adway do the same, replace /add to your hosts file.
They all only block the advert connecting to the internet therefore the add is blank. They don't remove the advert place holder. They cant. So with these apps, you're getting the same as omega

If you're interested in using an Xposed module, Minminguard does a good job at hiding ads. i think it also gets rid of placeholder areas from apps so that the screen isnt taken up.
I hate ads but also want to support developers too but i mean you can donate/ buy the premium when you feel you've got your moneys worth IMO
Anyone know of a good ad blocker like adfree. I used to run beans which had ad blocking built in. Adfree app doesn't appear available anymore. I'm running cyan 10.2.
Thanks,

They pulled it from the appstore.
Just google it, it still works and they have a downloadable apk.
I just put AdAway on my Nexus and it works great
Adaway! Download it from Fdroid: https://f-droid.org

I used AdAway compiled by mrRobinson for a while, and it does a great job blocking ads. However, when browsing the web, you sometimes see areas where ads should be, as empty boxes/placeholders. Not a dealbreaker, and not mrRobinson's fault...that is just the way AdAway works.
Last week I decided to check out Crossbreeder, which enhances overall UI speed among other things, and it blocks ads too. Crossbreeder's ad blocking is better, and even gets rid of ad placeholders. But some people have reported network lag and/or system lag with Crossbreeder, so make a nandroid before flashing.
And if you use Chrome, DO NOT enable Google's web data compression through their servers. Data compression allows them to push ads even if you have an ad blocker installed. I opted for compression once, and it took me a little while to figure out why AdAway no longer worked
With adaway you have to disable it to be able to watch huluplus now. Its the only one I know of that I use and I watch a lot of movies/shows so disabling it for hulu isn't a deal breaker just annoying lol.

Hello all!
About two weeks ago, I used the "stump root" method to root my G3. The root worked according to the root checker app as it verified that I am rooted. On my previous phone, the Galaxy S3, I used AdFree by bigtincan, and it worked like a charm by blocking all ads, including YouTube, reddit, and any in-browser ads.
So, naturally, I downloaded AdFree to use on my G3. But the problem is, it doesn't seem to be blocking many/any ads at all. The ads in my redditisfun app are not there, but I still get YouTube ads and ads still appear in Google Chrome while browsing the web. Does anybody have an explanation for this, or possibly another ad blocker that will work for all ads?
Thanks in advance!

Adaway works great from first day of root
I have Adaway and I can help you with Chrome ads. In Chrome there is an option under bandwidth management called reduce data usage, that needs to be off for adaway to work with Chrome.
YouTube ads unfortunately are no longer blocked by adaway automatically, there is a way to make it block the ads but I can't remember exactly what it is. You can find the information on that in the adaway thread. It does prevent the preview images from loading but that's the only issue with doing that. There is an xposed module to block YouTube ads though.
