Hi,
I use Greyblur and I am anoyed by the fact that I get different times a notification for some unwanted ads (not sure if this is Greyblur or any other app).
There is a star in the Status Bar and if you press on the information the browser opens with some unwanted recommendations (I call it SPAM).
So can anybody help to fix this.
Is this a regular Android function (e.g. a interface which every app can use)?
Where I should look to disable this function?
Thanks in advance.
It's not greyblur you must of installed a bad app. Review where you got your apps and be more careful.

O.k., thanks.
But is there a way to track this application down?
What would be the procedure to do this; it's impossible to deinstall all apps...
Recomendations for what exactly? Is it Kongregade or app brain or pulse?
If you have time I'd say do this.
Back up with titanium backup
SBF back to stock
Install each app one by one
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Before reinstalling one by one, post an appbrain link so i can see what apps you have installed. I can then report back what apps to get rid of before just wiping everything.
there is an app called Share My Apps that will create a list for you of all the apps you have installed. much easier to post than to list them all manually
Hey...,
Many thanks for this input - which is exactly what I wanted.
So you believe it could be one of this apps: Kongregade, App brain or Pulse.
Yes, I use Pulse and App Brain.
After thinking over about the best way, I had an thought...
Would it be possible to freeze selected apps with TITANIUM, to see if the SPAM disappears?
Or would'nt this be a realistic way to check if one of the mentioned apps are causing this behaviour...
Really, to uninstall makes me crazy as you can see the list is long (needs at least 1/2-1 hour to reinstall - without a real guarantee not to reinstall the "bad boy" again...).
And many thanks in advance for going roughly through the app list.

Kongregate appbrain and pulse are all fine apps, but will all recomend new updates in your notification bar, you can change this in settings. In the op you said, ads for unwanted recomendations. I was, and still am unsure if you are refering to irelevant product advertising like a commercial, or if your being recommended flash games because you told Kongregate to notify you of new games (or a similar notification from a dif app). There is a malicious advertising plug in called "airpush" that devs could put in apps to advertise in your notification bar, it has caused a backlash against devs that use it. As far as freezing to test, yes you can, but be careful what you freeze and for this testing purpose maybe one at a time is the best way to tell what app is notifying you.
I will list the apps below that I know are not infected with airpush, all of these apps I use or have used before and they do not have airpush:

Hope that helps. Maybe others can add to the list of safe apps.
I had it happen when I used the android movie download app. It was useless and spammed thee hell out of me.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Thanks for your response.
To be more clear: it is not ONLY product related or update recommendations.
They spam me with commercials from different areas.
But maybe I'll have an eye on it to see what they offer, maybe this is an way to identify the app and make it public + ban.
It would be good to have a public black list...
And last but not least: I was searching, but Airpush (at least what I can see in the market) is not installed. So it's not this app...
Best regards and thanks.
I also had been spammed by the app "Live wallpaper LED" bu DrHU. beware of this app
try scanning your phone with AirPush
it won't block whatever is causing it but it'll identify which app is the culprit and let you uninstall it.
Addons Detector is like that airpush app on steroids... bit more functionality.
Once installed, run a scan. Then choose the bottom filtering option to see who's using airpush.

I had this exact same thing. A little star on the notifcation bar saying I won an Ipad2, and then redirected me to a spam website.
In my case it was actually caused by a Final Fantasy 13 guide app.
I reported the app, deleted it, and it looks like google pulled it from the marketplace.

Addons Detector flagged Zarley for push notification adds.. its never spammed my notif bar ever and it definately doesn't contain the Airpush "virus".
Airpush (which advertises here on xda) offers this type of ad. I can't tell you if its them or not, but check out airpush.com for info on their permanent opt-out feature. I was intrigued by their revenue claims until I saw their methods.

I had the same issue and installed Addons Detector and it found 4 apps using different push notifications. I uninstalled all 4 apps and no pop-ups so far. Thanks
Hey,
I was spammed by Awesome Wallpaper app that way
i noticed you use go launcher. I have noticed that some of the free themes have had airpush built in to them. you might try and use another theme and delete the ones you currently have. This worked for me.

My favorite messaging app is "hike".
