Unknown app! - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

I woke up this morning and as usual I spend time on y phone to wake up before I start to move LOL! I am paging thru my home screens and I see this. I have no idea what it is and never downloaded it. Second one in two days. I only redownloaded some apps that I have used in the past. Ones that I trust. I know that some developers use that push notification kinda stuff for advertisements but this is a whole different level. I have searched my application manager in settings and cannot seem to locate this. What is it? How do I fully remove it?

Do you have titanium backup? If not, I would download the free version and check it in there.

Download Air Push Detector. Run it. Delete offending apps.

Looks like you have downloaded an app that has malware in it. You need to find that app and remove it.

I'm running on Atrix with CyanogenMod Beta on At&t. Anyone else get this, or have similar problems. I'm not sure how to look into this, i downloaded aLog but not sure what i'm looking for to block.
You installed an (imo malicious) app that includes a notififaction add spammer called AirPush, use this app to find out what the offending app is and delete it.
Do that^
then kill it with fire

You can prevent imminent blindness by taping your eyelids open. This stops the squinting and resulting blindness! Been doing it for years myself!

If you want, you can opt out of those ads (there is a link in the notification bar when you get one). Then you can keep those apps or install others without having to worry about being bothered

How to keep apps in homescreen folders sorted alphabetically?

Here is a folder sorted alphabetically as desired (I drag-and-dropped each to order):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I just rebooted the phone and here is the folder now:
Same with my other folders. Just wondering if there's a setting anywhere to keep the apps sorted alphabetically? Looove using folders so hoping this is possible Thanks!
Anyone? :-I

Download AppZorter Lite on the Play Store, this can remove the gaps left and sort the apps by name or install date automatically.

Thanks! I tried this and sorted, but my folders still the same (Applications did sort, though, and that's awesome). I even restarted phone.

Chameleon Launcher

Hi I would like to know if anyone manage to get this (chameleon launcher) to work on their Note i1717. I tried to download the beta from the play store but says my phone isn't compatible, while I have also read that others got it to work properly. If anyone can confirm that this works and give a brief description to get it to work, it would be greatly appreciated.
PS. I just don't wanna waste $10 and not get it to work. Would like to try beforehand.

I tried it out before the really had anything for it. Maybe four widgets. I never had a chance to check the location or timer screen functions. It looked to be cool but nothing really worked yet. I took it off my girlfriends tab. She donated to kick start for it. I haven't tried it in weeks though. Maybe its gotten better. I really like the idea. I'll pull it again and give it a try and report back. I don't think you'll be able to get it from the play store though.
Edit added some screen shots from the note. Still crashed all the time on all the widgets. Just not made for it I guess.

[Q] Virus question?

I noticed recently that my AVG anti virus was outdated and i updated it and did a scan on my phone and it came up with a virus called RC Service. I tried uninstalling it but it says it cant uninstall. I think it is randomly opening apps on my phone. I recently have been noticing (when i hold the home button for the task manager) that "Phone" is open and has a black screen. Also it litterlay just vibrated and has a push notification that said pool mania (<- I have no idea what that is!) on it but i cleared it and it went away just fine. I unistalled all the apps that i recently installed from the Play Store. I am rooted with s-off but nothing has asked for Root Permision for months. if anyone knows what to do please help!

Just don't use antivirus and especially AVG.It is very possible that it is messing up your phone's software.
