Full screen "interstitial" ads - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have noticed over the last week that I have had some full screen ads popping up randomly. I have noticed it on GEL launcher/search and hangouts on t wo different Roms, omni and slim. I don't have any bootleg apps and I have run lookout ad detector and it finds nothing.
I did find this online straight from Google. https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/docs/admob/advanced .
Just wondering if anybody wise has experienced it and if anyone has an idea of the culprit.

YouTube appears washed out

I am unable to find anything related to this issue. (Not sure what exactly to search for)
I'm facing the same issue on nexus 7, Samsung GS3, my friend's GS4 and note800.
YouTube app displays this "wireless TV" icon at the center of any video and dims the actual video. Have tried going into all its settings but have been unable to remove it.
Any idea what this is actually about, and how to remove it?

Has anyone figured out the PowerManagerService.WakeLocks?

Ok, i'm getting a constant wake lock for the duration of my phone on time for PowerManagerService.WakeLocks. I don't have root so I cannot track it down. I'm wondering if anyone has had this issue and has figured out what was causing it? My phone will not deep sleep!!

Think I actually figured it out, it was the Facebook app with suspicion of Google now as well!! Finally got some worthwhile projected battery life!!

I ended up downgrading and then upgrading the play services. Seemed to work.
A new Play Services came out .88 hopefully this fixes the problem.
OP: you have to check the other tabs of wakelock detector. everything on that tab looks okay. play store might be a bit icky but its nothing too bad

Strange Ad producing app.

Didn't really know where to post this...
Has anyone ever seen this before? Don't know where it came from. I assume tagged along with another app. But it was causing random full screen ads on my wife's phone. It even made ads appear when the screen was off. I was able to remove it effortlessly but it would be nice to know more about it.

If you don't need it, why not uninstall it?

Something like recent ES File Manager adware? http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...dated-with-super-shady-speed-charging-adware/
If you have UC Browser then check in its settings>BoostCharge Lock Screen. Disable it . Hope it helps
Yeah this is malware from UC Browser.
