Hi,
For the last few days I'm getting those weird stars in the status bar, and when I click on it, it's trying install something.
WTF is it?! Virus or some other $#it?
Thanks for the help,

These a ads which come bundled with some free apps and also on apps you install from third parties like Blackmart so if you installed an app recently that is probably causing the issue.

Long press the notification, then hit app info. It should tell you the app that's causing the annoying ads. If you want to keep the app, then hit uncheck the "show notifications".

Arrgghh,
Couldn't get my Wiimote working with it, oh well, thanks anyways Boosted!
Edit: Also noticed this apk installed an app called "ad plus" that sent ads to my notifications......uninstalled. That could also be a reason it was yanked.

Yup, that's the reason Eset gave me too, before it moved the app into quarantine, pity it could have been good to relive old memories!!
You could of course disable your AV while you download this, (always remembering to activate it again afterwards), install the app and then install "Airblocker" from the market, click "Detect Airpush" then block the ads.
If you wanna risk it.

It's pretty good, it has worked well for me so far.
I hope somebody can give me some advice on this cos it's driving me potty, I keep getting notifications on my phone and they are in chinese (see screenshots), clearing them is no problem but I'd like to know if there's any way of blocking them, it's not a text or email, just a notification and a little picture of a star at the top of my screen, any suggestions welcomed thanks

The notification appears because you have installed an app with airpush advertisements in your phone.
Install this and do a scan on your phone: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImNvbS5icm9zbWlrZS5haXJwdXNoZGV0ZWN0b3IiXQ..
Then uninstall the aplication that came out with the result and rate developer with 1 star on google play. (this usually gets the developer to react, if alot of 1 star ratings are received)

Try "addons detector". However that's not a generic ad so it may not detect anything. You just have to go through your recent installed apps and running processes to figure out which app is the culprit.

Have you installed any apps recently right before you started getting the chinese notifications? That would probably be the culprit. I would start uninstalling recent apps and that might solve your issue

when you get the notification Spam don't remove it yet:
Settings > under system tap on {} Developer options > check USB Debugging
connect the phone using a usb to your computer
open adb shell
Code:
adb shell dumpsys notification
copy the output and save it to a text file, post it here
i'll tell you which app is spaming.
I FIXED MINE!!
the KEY: notification monitor function in addons detector
leave it on and wait a day or so till you get the notification
I used to get bunch of Chinese ads
addon detector showed me exactly which program caused it
it was a hacked version of game I have downloaded... got rid of it and the ad was gone...
thanks guys

Hey
So I downloaded Aqarium Love Wallpaper and others which come with annoying airpush adds on my device and on the notification tray. I have heard of the opt out of airpush adds however many users complain that the # of adds increased. Therefore, I assume that the easiest way is just to delete the backgrounds but I don't know how because they only appear under live wallpapersd where I can't delete anything. Please help !

Yo, im using ilauncher (i know stupid to use it on android) but today all creators apps (ilauncher, inoty, ilocker) disappeared from google play and so his facebook account...Anybody have some intel on this? He quit or something?
Thnx for info and sorry if the thread is wrongly placed.
At a guess, apple probably complained.

I don't think so, probably the dev's preparing for a big update. Yesterday, these 3 apps didn't appeared in playstore search but if you had the link to them, they were there, with 7 october updates. Then, they dissapeared. If it was Apple complain, probably the dev announced on his facebook page so the fans would know.
That's what I think at first but why anyone pull of all his apps and make facebook page inactive just to make update? Without facebook page people know nothing what's happening.

I am really mad because of this, I am a fan of iLauncher/iNoty/iLocker and the dev promised a lot of great features in the future versions. I hope everything is ok and he will be back in playstore
You're not alone. I'm very mad too...
If you're paid, and if he remove apps for update and publish new, you're must buy these apps again...

Actually in the play store, the developer hasn't disappeared. But the apps (the ios-like ones) have disappeared. If you search Suckagomi in the play store he still has one app called icon 7 which is an old app but is still there...

He has probably been forced to remove the apps from the PlayStore because I saw an other iOS 7 Launcher, and the developer mentioned that Google sent him an e-mail saying that he had to modify his app and make it less iOS7 or they'll have to remove it...

Well if it's really happened like this, the developer should inform about this instead of totally disappearing from Facebook and not responding to emails. All his apps are paid so there should be some sort of manners to paying customers...
