Receiving ads in notification bar in Micromax Canvas Spark - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought Micromax Canvas Spark q380 2 days back and have either uninstalled or disabled most of useless apps that were pre-installed in it. I have updated most of Google related apps and have not installed any other 3rd party apps. Only Clean Master was manually updated (ie not through Play Store but getting installed/updated itself)
Now whenever I connect to internet then I am receiving ads in notification bar to install apps.
{
"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_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any ideas which adware/malware this Micromax people have installed?!
Or how to stop these ads or uninstall the specific app causing this?

Those might be coming from CleanMaster. Cheetah Mobile is known for adware.

install kingroot 4.8 and download ES FILE MANAGER from play store, then open ES FILE MANAGER and open his SETTING then disable RECYCLE BIN and enable ROOT EXPLORER, then permission ALLOW, then goto above side bar and go to DEVICE MEMORY (not internal memory, not external sd card), then open VENDOR folder then open OPERATOR. select all 7-8 application and delete it, then restart and enjoy and plz reply me if u r not satisfied, bcz i hv those mobile and i was faced this problem.

Rogue apps?

In my settings under manage applications, I have 2 apps (wolfram alpha and blood brothers) that seem to have a slight... problem.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
According to link2sd and launching blood brothers from a homescreen shortcut, those 2 apps are not installed. Yet, when I sideload blood brothers (not officially compatible with my phone but works nevertheless) it gives me the prompt saying this app will replace another app and all data will be saved. Then I hit install and it says "application not installed"
So I decided to open up settings and uninstall them from there, but it FCs every time I tap on either one of them.
Then, I went into /data/app, deleted both apks, went into /data/sdext2/data and deleted the data files for both of them. I also went into /data/data to delete all data. I also think there were apks in /data/sdext2 which I deleted. Anyhow, from screenie you can see both apps have 0.00 bytes of storage taken up, which I assume means I've cleared everything.
But they're still there, I want to use the apps and its annoying me to have those show up in settings.
So I went into TiBackup. They didn't show up. Like stated before, link2sd said nothing.
The Play Store says wolfram alpha is uninstalled, but here's the weird thing. I refunded the app (because it is not worth $3!) And it has this weird residue left over. Couldn't care less about it right now, but gimme blood brothers!
Any ideas as to what could have caused this?

What is the equivalent cp usb for d405n? I only see Diag Settings and Data Settings!

help: nothing is working inside notification drawer except toggle

I have two identical phone
the model is alcatel one touch evolve 5020N
I think I go too crazy on uninstall system apps (thinking it was bloatware) and now one of the phone's notification is not working.
the problem: when I download file from chrome or dolphin browser, I never get the icon on the notification bar,
when I install app from google play, the notification bar stays empty
when I get Text message or GMAIL email, I can hear the message/email ringtone but the notification bar is empty...
and When I click the settings button on top right it does not work

}
settings button on top right is also not working
the only thing that works in the drawer is the toggle.
I tried to compare the two phone using nandroid manager ,using titanium backup and vroot tools, I could not figure out which system app to make this working again.
do you know which app would make this work as normal again?
thanks
That's something related to SystemUI.apk. Post a list of all apk files that you have deleted and we'll see as every android device can have different names for its apk files. In fact if you're good enough you could make every single system app named doge doge1 doge2 etc.

Infected with malware via chrome

Hey guys.
When I was exploring the Internet via chrome my phone has been infected. The new tab opened by itself, phone started to vibrate and page said that my phone is infected and that I should download Antivirus (but this page was similar to other pages with slogans "YOU WON 100K$ CLICK HERE etc.) so I ignored it. Now after every call (only then) Clean Master is saying that I already installed "Games " so I can delete apk file. Sometimes I press YES or sometimes I press No and sometimes it appear on desktop as game (last time it was yahoo logo) sometimes it doesn't. Clean Master Says That is malware with ".bf" extension. I tried every AV, even Avast didn't find anything. I tried also looking for this file by my self but no results (CM Antivirus also find nothing) . (gonna add name of virus for better tagging)
NAME OF VIRUS:
Android .Troj.tb_downloader.bf

I think that is ads... Btw to be safe you can always format your phone, be sure backup your data and contacts.. If you are rooted use adblocking software.. If not use browser which supports adblocking features..there are many in playstore
