[Solved] What is causing morning solicitations of Apps? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

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.

Download airpush detector from the play store and run it.

NFL HD Wallpapers was the culprit according to that app. Never had that issue before on my previous phone. Hopefully it is gone now. Thank you!

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....

The new leaked honeycomb music app

Don't know if any have tried it, but it works on cm7. You can't search for other artists (apparently, when google found out about the leak, they shut down the servers..(for both down load and streaming).
But the app by itself is nifty enough to make me want to use it instead if the native music app. It has a nice iphone-like flow-search (or whatever that's called).
Check out my screen shots below. I dont have much music on my phone now (so no cracks about the sound of music track I have in there), but you can get an ideas of what it looks like.
I would upload it for you guys, but I don't know where it is on my phone. I installed it, and then opened it immediately. When I tried looking around on the SDcard, I couldn't find it anywhere.
But just search here in xda under "honeycomb music app leaked" or similar.
Edit : I don't think it works in Froyo.
Edit: anyone know why these screen shots are blurry? they look fine in my gallery....??? [when I try to upload them to this thread, tapatalk takes over--(which I presume is the xda app), so I think something is getting screwed up st that point.. And I am not near a working computer at the moment

Then how come its not used in any roms? Or at least more frequently used. I have been playing with it for 2 days, and it is a fast nicer music app them the old one.
How long ago was this originally leaked? From everything I have read (which could be wrong I guess), this music app is for honeycomb and is going to be part of google's anticipated entry into music to compete with the iPhone/iPod. It can't be that old.

Xperia Play launcher and apps2sd weird problem?

Ok, so I used adb and moved all my apps to my sd using setinstalllocation, I uninstalled system apps and games, such as fifa and star battalion and reinstalled them and moved them to the sd. This all worked fine and the games run, however, they do not show up in my xperia play launcher. The other games do, but the system ones I moved, sims, fifa and star battalion, no longer show up in the launcher. Any ideas? Kinda ruins the whole point of the launcher! :-(
Thanks guys,
Niall

[App]Absolute System Root Tool

I have'nt seen this posted on here yet,but i just wanted to educate the people that don't know.Heres a sweet tool that i've been using for about a year now,it does a great job changing fonts,boot animations(it gives the option of changing the install directory)process's and alot more.Its the easiest way i've found to change fonts and animations and the apps $1.99,you will have to test it on different roms,there might be a list of compatibe devices,some it wont work on with the boot animations,like CM,but its never bricked my phone,it just wont install if its not compatible.

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.

Got my first app published in the Google Play store, what you think?

Hi guys,
Been working on learning Java and the Android SDK for a while now. Decided to put my learning project online: Saving Made Simple. Check out the screenshots to get a sense of the app:

Please visit the Play Store and download it for free. If you like it, please leaving me a rating. If it crashes (fingers crossed), please send me a bug report. I am an active dev who's hobby it is to improve my apps daily, I look forward to your reviews.
Thanks!
Its a neat idea, but none of those reviews strike me as legit. Especially the one from "Autom8r".
Sent from your mom.
Haha, the one from Autom8r is me, of course, I gotta plug my own app. The rest, are legit.
But regardless, do YOU like it? What could I do better?
If your wondering why you have a single response only, its because your in the wrong thread... Nice app, nonetheless!

I like the idea and the UI a lot with one exception: the 'Edit Savings Plan' screenshot displays both icons ('Accept' and 'Cancel') on a hard-to-read, definitely 'do not click here!' red background.
Also, both icons seem to "weigh" the same, when one of them ('Accept') should be a call to action type (you can create subtle call to action buttons by increasing their contrast)
