are you talking about an actual window that pops up or just the notification icon in the top left?

A window. Like the handcent one but. Looks different. It shows the message then two buttons underneath. Reply and dismiss.

What Rom are you using
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

I have had that before on my phone. It was quite a while back and I "think" it was part of another application I had downloaded but I don't remember which one... maybe back track what you have downloaded and uninstall til you find it. Worth a shot...

This looks like the pop-up you get when you are on the phone talking and get another call and is giving you the option to send a txt to the caller. The option is there in the stock ROM which I am sure is carried over to custom ROM's.
I have never seen this pop-up but others have. If you have a custom dialer that may be why.
go into Settings > Call > Phone settings (or similar for a custom dialer)

I believe this is a setting within the MIUI rom... I could be wrong though.

Apps I didn't download show up in Play Store.

Hello XDA.
This issue has been bothering me for a while now. When I go to the Play Store hit the menu button and go to "my apps", there sometimes a few apps that show up that I never downloaded.

"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"
}
These apps show up every now and then as downloaded. I don't speak Russian, thus, I don't download apps that are in Russian. I was wondering if maybe someone uses my account, and is downloading apps to their device, or if this is an issue with the Play Store...? I use a very secure password, it literally is a bunch of random numbers, letters, and symbols. Any help with resolving or explaining the issue would be appreciated!

Change your pw and see if it does it again?

It could be a bad app that you installed is downloading other apps by itself?

My first thought. The apps never appear on my phone though. Some kind of botnet then? A bad app downloads another app to use your account information to download and rate it, then un install it? Those other apps don't have any reviews that involve words, and they all have 10,000+ downloads with 4-5 star ratings. Seems suspicious to me.

You've probably just solved it yourself. The tricky part comes now when you have to figure out what app did it.

Hi there. Recently, ads that look like the image above have been popping up insistently on my phone. Every single time i pick it up after an interval, the ad pops up and takes up the whole screen, unless i click "no, thanks" or "Back" or "Home" it won't go away.
I'm getting very frustrated and i have uninstalled about 90% of my apps. I installed cleanmaster to clean my system cache to get rid of any unwanted files and i run it all the time. I've also tried all the ad blockers/detectors on the play store but they cannot detect any sign of malicious software.
Any advice? I would really hate to do a factory reset but i would like to know the cause of the problem, if it's an app. What's the point of having an android if i can't install any apps?!
Any ideas on how i can get to the root of the problem? It's frustrating as f***.

what happens if you press the recents button? does it show any app or just not respond?

It opens a webpage. One of those annoying "contest" websites where you are asked to do quizzes or enter your number to win a prize.

And what about the other 10%? Check all your apps...
Have you rebooted after uninstalled the others?

Hum... It's on your side, not Android... You obviously downloaded something...

It's an app for sure, but we cant help you unless you show us the list of your remaining apps.
When you find it, just uninstall it. No need to clear cash or anything, it wont make a difference anyway. And if you got it from google play, you should report it since it is against their guidelines. https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/2479847?hl=en
If it is not from the play store e.g. some pirate app, I dont feel sorry for you... If it's a legitimate app from outside the playstore you should raise your concern with the developer.

Hey man..... I haven't tried your app yet..... Because I already use OCR instantly pro....... But the point I want to raise is that..... There are a lot of apps who can do this...... You should do something to stand out of the crowd...... Right?
So in case it is possible...... Maybe you could try something like real time selection from current screen wherever you are..... Much like CAPTURE2TXT for windows.....

Thanks very much

Totally agree, you should have something that will make your app outstand among such great apps like Tesseract, OCRopus, Conjecture, Anyline, OpenCV. :good:
By the way, how much can an OCR developer get in your country?
Thanks in advance.

Enhanced Messaging Gone?

G'day folks. I have updated from the s7 and cannot find enhanced messaging on the s8+.
Anyone else in the same boat?

Think they just changed how the settings are, but these are features for Advanced Messaging and I do see it working.

Don't know if this is what you're looking for. Using Samsung messaging app, go to settings (3 dots top right), then more settings, you'll then see seperate settings for text messaging and multimedia messaging.
Hope this helps.

I recently wrote a blog on this particular issue because it was driving me absolutely insane. Hope it helps!

Interesting. I followed the instructions, yet still do not have the chat settings in the Samsung messaging app, v 4.3.03.2/msg svc 4.1.02.48. I have CarHDROM installed on 955F, so will look around for a solution.
