I don't have an answer, but i'm sure glad to see someone else got it. Not sure if similar to what happened to you, but here's what happened to me:
Got a notification that had what I thought was the GameLoft logo. I have Asphalt7 installed and the notification said something like: "You've been idling too long. It's time to hit the pedal"
I had rooted my phone the night before and had the SuperUser app supplying su. I tapped the notification and it flickered the screen a bit and I got "shell granted root access" message a few times. The audit log in SuperUser showed "shell" granted access.
I never allowed "shell" access. I've since installed the SuperSU app instead of SuperUser since it logs the actual operations which an app is doing as root. I've been waiting since for the notification to pop up but no luck so far. I've opened each and every app I have installed in the hopes that it'd try to get root but nothing yet...
Would you mind sharing what apps you have installed? I'd like to see if any overlap with mine.

Did you delete superuser then after installing supersu?
Did your log look like this?

I have noticed games sometimes do that . I usually just leave bad comments on the play store cause their is no reason they should be requesting that.

That is exactly how it looked like. I deleted SuperUser, yes. But only after installing SuperSU.

Just speculating here, but I think some games try to figure out if you're using a legit copy. Some other games may also check to see if your phone is rooted and perhaps refuse some functionality in the game.

please be more clear about how to install cause i put in system/app but nothing happened and i cant find it in launcher

Put it on your SD Card and browse to it using Astro or any other file manager
Just like you would install any other app
When you put it in system/app you need to change Permissions (like the other Apps in the Folder have) and then Reboot then it should be installed.
This app is ok, there are better out there but if your only a casual user of your phone for music it does everything you want to and it looks pretty good to

after the app kicked out of memory, doesn't matter how am I trying to run it, it always FC
it only work if I uninstall it with pm or TB, reboot and install then. but after it kicked out of mem it's throwin' FCs at me
Can anybody confirm this too? I want this so bad
EDIT: logcat attached
it's tellin' something about missing URI and media provider...
I think the problem is really with the media provider service, so I used Rescan Media Root from Market and now all is fine. However, I prefer the purple one from source

Some sort of grayware on my phone?

I noticed this notification in my status bar:
{
"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_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And when I tap on it, it takes me to one of those freeipad websites. I opened up TasKiller to see if there are any apps open that seem unfamiliar, but I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. I also tried googling for it, but found nothing. Does anyone know what this is, or how I would go about finding out what it is?
Thanks.
It honestly sounds like a virus.
Did you install anything recently on your device?

Search for an app called "Addons detector" and run the scan, then look under push, whatever app shows up is causing the problem. My mom had the same thing on her phone recently.

Did you download a TV listings app by chance? That's what was causing the exact same issue on her defy. Removed the tvlistings app and they stopped.

Its an air push advertisement. Check the free app called add on detector from android market as it can tell you what app is responsible.
If you then want to keep the app you can eliminate the ads if rooted using lbe privacy guard to deny it the appropriate permissions.

So this is what the green plus sign looks like and by the way the add-on Detector doesn't really tell me which app is doing it unless I may be overlooking something. Let me know Dave.

In add on detector you need to choose "push notifications" from the selector at top of screen and it will show you apps that can push ads to your phone.
They may also show under the app title with the word "airpush" when selecting "advertising".

I downloaded lookout ad detector and found out the app that was doing out it. Appearently it was a skyrim soundboard that I downloaded a while back, go figure. Anyway needless to say the problem is solved but thanks got your input I really appreciate it.

[Solved] What is causing morning solicitations of Apps?

Screen shot attached.
I've gone through my running applications, stoped any that I thought even might have something to do with it, but it is still there. With my work hours, I sleep till 11a. So it shows up sometime between 5a and then. Yesterday the green plus sign was a red star. Same advertisement type stuff.
Clicking on the link it goes from ad.leadboltapps.com something or another to some other app url to something with a .UK and them to the Play Store.

Add [SOLVED] to the title so others know there is a solution attached to this thread ...
cool !!! nice post
I've had "Go Keyboard" spam me with ads too. Root and permission management (permissions Pro on market) cured it, but w/o root, then you basically get rid of the app or live with spam...
Later,
Jason
AirBlocker from the play store has worked well for me.
Ringdroid uses air push ads. Download the app AddOns Dectector to see what apps use what kind of ads

The spam comes and goes, try the same app after they update it and see if it's good to go or it still sends spam. It's part of the free Android world....

Facebook app virus alert/google detected a virus popup

(SOLVED) SHE WIPED HER PHONE.
My girlfriend and I where discussing an old app I went to go find it, found an apk because the app is no longer available on the market, installed it, it refreshed her memory of it, so then she was scrolling through the facebook app for android when a popup (thread topic) came up from her feed like an app starting up she said something to me, I checked it out, while doing so I checked the running windows it showed up with facebook in the background, but the popup had no app name it was blank, so I closed it out, uninstalled the app I had recently put on there, downloaded a few anti-virus apps, and anti-malware apps and ran them nothing came up on anything, so figured was all good until she was scrolling facebook again, and the same thing happened.
Am I missing a step far as removing this problem, I read somewhere that a lot of old apks are interwoven with malware, and also open a back door to steal info.
During the last scan the phone died as I got to the charger, now waiting on it to charge up.
Has anyone dealt with an issue like this yet?

To me it looks like one of those ads like "fix your phone now, it has viruses that can steal your info"... I think it's just adware [emoji1]
