I'm getting this as well and it is VERY ANNOYING (are you listening, Samsung?)
I can't figure out how to remove, stop, or freeze this garbage. Perhaps someone has some knowledge to share on how to get rid of this?
Glad I'm not the only one having this announce.

You have to manually go to each samsung app and check for updates. Sometimes it's S Health, Samsung hub, etc.
I had that problem when I updated to 4.3. I debloated too many apks. I can't remember if this is the right one for sure, but the only Samsung apk I still have on my sdcard is called SamsungApps_J_Only.apk. You might need to put that one back. I can't guarantee that's the correct one either, but once I replaced something, I was able to update my Samsung apps. It's been a couple months since I went back to 4.2.2.

Hmm. I went into every Samsung related app and none of them had any type of update.
Look in your app draw for one called "Samsung Apps", that's where you have to go and you'll have at least one app in it under purchased, that will be where to update at. If it's not in your app draw, search around here and Google for the "Samsung App .apk". Not sure where I ended up finding it.

Thanks to all who replied!
This is how I fixed it.
In my drawer I did not had "Samsung Apps" maybe at some point I uninstalled it, can't remember. Went to http://content.samsung.com/mobile/us/contents/aboutn/appsMobileIntro.do and installed it. When opened und menu there was 3 updates ready to be updated. Hope it helps someone.

I hope I don't sound like a prick, but uninstall the programs in that list and I am sure you won't have it. Why would you want to delete your list of installed apps? Also, try AppBrain and FastWebInstall (?, same company) if you haven't. You can make as many lists as you please and delete them with just as much grace. It's pretty much another way of using Play without completely doing so. It's also great because Google's backup and restore isn't perfect.
Perhaps I misunderstood the problem.

This is not only the list of currently installed apps this is the whole device history of installed apps many of them i deleted months ago.

This list depends on with which gmail ID you are logged in. If you login with a different gmail ID, the list will change according to which app you have downloaded using that ID.
So if you wanna hide/delete the list, you need to login with another ID!

Even if you uninstall the programs, the apps will still be in that list since it's a list of your entire account history of installed apps (instead of saying "installed", it will give you the option to install them).

At least I can provide this link from a cursory search:

Sentiment seems to be that we can't as exemplified by the following quote:
"Real pity, so you install crap, you unistall and you have it there forever. That's the policy of Google, you fart and the smell is always with you." -- yomismo (03FEB12)
I've been trying to search but haven't found anything on this issue. A couple of weeks ago I noticed a number of apps that appeared on my All Apps list without me ever even installing them.

The two by martetrut and the casino one. I tried searching my phone for any trace of these apps and found nothing other than their appearance on this list.
Today, I looked at my list and now more mystery apps have appeared, with another app by that martetrut dev.
I downloaded lookout and Norton and ran several scans and they didn't pick up anything.... I'm a little concerned.
Anyone have any idea on what's causing this or had a similar experience? I'd appreciate any help/input.
If it matters, I'm completely stock.

Someone may be using your account to download apps. go to play.google.com on your computer, click on the gear in the upper right corner and go to My Orders & Settings.
The Orders tab can show you when the apps in question were downloaded.
Click on the Settings Tab and look under devices to make sure only your phone is listed.
Unfortunately I don't think there is a way to delete or unauthorize a device, but at least you'll know if someone else is causing those apps to show up or not.
Best thing to do is change your account password.

Yes, this was my first thought. I would guess someone is using your account to download apps on another device.
as other users said, it's probably someone else using your account.
maybe you gave/sold your old android phone to someone without wiping data.
btw, changing your password can be a good solution
I have a Samsung Galaxy SII and cannot get this to quit! It's not showing up in my downloads, when I try long clicking on it in my active applications it just brings me to my home page and I disabled FB (which is not showing anywhere on my phone but I'm unable to enable in Play Store). PLEASE HELP!

I'm getting it as well, along with a bunch of people who also posted this problem today on Android Central. To fix it, long press on the notification until "app info" pops up. Go into app info, force stop it, and then clear data.
Alternatively, find the app called "downloads" in your app drawer, open it, press the "other downloads" button on the right. You should see the Facebook download with an in progress status. Tick the box next to it and then press the little trashcan icon to delete it.
Problem solved.
Edit: Probably best to do both methods, as it came back on me once after just deleting it from downloads app.
Thank you!! I couldn't figure out what it was either! I have Galaxy S3 with CM10.1 on it. How did this problem hit so many devices and so many ROMs at the same time!?
If this doesn't relate to our phone (the i777) it doesn't belong here. As in an app that has nothing to do with our phone. App problems can be discussed in the apps and games section, via pm, or in the MAIN general thread not related to a specific phone model.

Its a strange problem that affects multiple devices, and many had no idea of knowing if it affected one particular device/ROM or not. Relax.
I got it twice today on my Note 2 running a Touchwiz ROM, so it doesn't seem device dependant. FB Playstore error I would assume.

Oh. My. God. You seriously can't read can you?
Sent from my Zanpakuto using Getsuga Tensho!
I just read online WHY this is happening: Its because Facebook has pushed an update that will allow future updates to happen OUTSIDE of the Play Store (aka silent updates).
I haven't been able to get the direct update to work so far, but The Verge confirms that it is from FB, so it is safe.

Ok so I just got one today and boy I've had a lot of troubles with it. First it looks bad ace but it will not receive one email notification. I'm not stupid so I have checked to make sure that box is "on" and it is. It will not receive a facebook notification and after a couple of text notifications it stops getting them. I have a International 935f s7 edge connected to it. I don't know if it is the phone but my fit bit on it worked like a champ with out anything being wrong so I don't think it's that. I think I really just got a back one. I was one the phone with samsung for about 2 hours and they couldn't figure it out. Is there another update coming this week? Or should I send that bad boy in for RMA?
Oh yea factory resetted it twice today also...same thing will never get any other notification. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bad one?
And "notifications" for "samsung Gear Manager" is allowed in android settings ?

I not talk about the setting for each app you want to receive notification (mail, sms, facebook, twitter....) but the android permission (android phone settings) to authorize the "Gear Manager" apps to read and transmit notifications, right ?
yes it is. it is approved in the main setting
I just factory resetted it again and uninstall the gear app and redownloaded everything and it only receives one text than will not again...so weird...still testing but I think the software or the gear fit is bad

I own a Verizon Galaxy s9+ and A galaxy tab s3. For the past few months I've noticed strange things going on with my phone and for at least 6 months on my tablet. Even factory resets don't solve this. I feel like I've googled everything to no avail. I started to think I was just crazy, until the other day I went to add a new account to my phone, an email account, and noticed something strange under accounts. I don't see any abnormal accounts under "accounts" in settings, but when I click "add account" there is a strange icon with no title next to it, like its hidden, and it has the green circle next to it like its been added, but I can't click or see what it is. Please help! I used to be super nosey on my bfs phone and now wondering if he's had something on mine for a while as well?? Thank you!!

Hi , I'm not sure but I think maybe some spy app is installed on your phone : / . Check if your phone has Official firmware .
To do that , follow this video instruction :

First time I see something like that ...

A factory reset will not help with many spying apps. Best you can do is send the device back unless have an unlocked bootloader. Then you can format all partitions and add apps back one by one.
To be honest. If something is like this is needed. Then move on. The relationship was already dead.
