BEWARE of Root Check and Other Apps by JRummy16 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Just wanted to share this surprising situation I recently noticed with @jrummy16's Root Check app. I never opened this app for the past 14+ months on my Note 8, yet I just noticed this today that it has used almost 6GB of data in the background throughout the past month! What TF

If you have any of @jrummy16's apps, I highly suggest you check your data usage. Seems like a once-upon-a-time great dev gone rogue. What do you guys think?

It's your fault. You must remove such apps after use them. Why did you keep this app for 14 month?

[Q] TubeMate uninstalled but yet getting unwanted "update"

Hi folks
I have had Tube Mate installed originally from Market long time ago, it then asked me for an update which I did from the application website [not Market].
But as it was getting its updates prompts forced all the time onto application screen while using, asking me to go to website and download apk I had un-installed it.
The problem I have is that it is not [really] on my HTC any more, but several times a day I get a message in notification area

How to get rid of it?
As one wallpaper app messed up my Desire I recovered it from a backup so problem doesn't exists anymore.

[Q] Weather Forcast App Europe 7 Days Forcast

Hey guys
I'm searching the Play Store for a decent looking Weather app and I have yet
to find it. Thing is, I like a Weather app to tell me all normal things like
temp/condition/Humidity/... But I would also like it to show me a few days in
advance on the same screen.
Something similar like this:
{
"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"
}
Does such app exist? This is an app from a android device that came standard
with it. Not sure what phone it was and normal "accuweather" app doesn't show this exact screen!
Thanks in advance

Feeling lucky button

Hi,
I have got a little problem:
This afternoon something weird appeared: a button called 'feeling lucky'. I cannot remember to install something like this. It just appeared.
Does anybody knows what this is? A virus or something maybe?
I cannot find it in an app list for removing.
Here the screenshot

It's bloatware from the Apex launcher. Check their Play Store page and feel lucky to join storm.
You can get rid of it in the Pro version of Apex.

No, it's also been at the pro version and apparently still is. In the comments at google play a lot of pro users complain about still having it, but now it is hidden and working in the backround...

[Free][Game]Alienated 2: Zombie Survival

Few days ago i published the newest version of Alienated 2 called Alienated 2: Zombie Survival. This one includes all the features of the paid one for free and some minor improvements. Its a classic survival top down shooter similar to the games like crimsonland and phobia 3. I made the original game quite a long time a go and some times i get request asking to make the full version free. Recently i found a little spare time and it is now available on windows phone store. I think its worth checking since there are so little new games published to windows phone. I hope you guys will enjoy the game.

I used it for a few days with xiaomi.eu. Didn't found any big differences in the UI using Nova launcher. The only thing that I noticed was it SPAMS all kind of security alerts. "This app use this and that, yes or no?" It was frustrating.
