An app that you installed is causing the ads to appear. Just have to uninstall apps one at a time and see which one is causing this to happen.

It's called Airpush. Download Airpush detector or Airblocker and see which apps have airpush technology in it and remove those apps. Goodbye Airpush ads

No need for that... Use one of the above mentioned apps.

Get the app Boot animations by Jrummy Apps Inc. You can change your boot animations to something cool!
Also try out Nova launcher or any other launchers. You can change animations themes all kinds of stuff.
Root browser is really usefull also.
Adfree block ads but disables websites like ad.fly etc
Rom toolbox. Just got this one you can do so much but make sure you know what you're doing lol.
Depends on what you're looking for, and what kind of rooted user you are.
For me, all of these are essential tools to have on hand, whether or not I need to use them at the moment.

Boot animations can only be changed of you're running a custom kernel.
Otherwise they have to be .qmg files which I don't believe that app supports

Easy ums is pretty cool. If you have a micro sd inserted, you can use your phone like an external hdd. I use this to store videos so I can connect to any smart tv and watch it on a bigger screen. If anyone knows an easier way to do this, let me know.

[App] NEW Play Store 3.9.16 !

What's New
The most notable and immediately apparent new feature is the long overdue ability to remove apps you've previously downloaded from the All Apps list. If you like to try a lot of apps, that list is likely very cluttered. With the new Google Play, you can trim it to your heart's content.

Very welcomed update! Works great. Download at source ^^

Make a backup before trying!
Anyways, you can try..
Goto system/app, rename play store apk (i always just add ".bac")
Reboot. Use a root explorer, rename new play store, drop it into system/app. Reboot again. Should be good
almost forgot, set permissions too. rw r r
^^^^that's how I updated to the new gmail
for the new market I believe, I just had to install it (overwrite)

I've disabled all anti-virus (ex. Avast, Lookout, etc) and install from Unknown Sources is allowed.

Samsung apps crashing in background

My phone freezing for a minute. When it comes out of the freeze I get 1 of 2 messages.
1 says, "Samsung watchon was not responding and closed" (or something like that)
The other message says, "Samsung mymagazine was not responding and closed" (or something like that)
Anyone else had issues with these? I have never even used either one of these apps, they're just in the background.

Guys, try to update those apps through Samsung Apps. Some bugs will be fixed and the crashes should stop. Also you can disable those apps of I'm not wrong. If nothing works, factory reset should do the trick.

I can tell you it is not certainly marked as compatible for Nexus 4 (running CM 4.3.1 snapshot) because it won't let me download it.
EDIT: I also just tried changing ro.product.model in build.prop to Nexus 5, clearing Play Store data and restarting. Still doesn't return the Polar Beat app. I would try the S4 but I don't know the right strings for that phone.
EDIT2: Found S4 strings (GT-I9500 and samsung) and tried those... also cleared Play Services data in addition to Play Store data... seems to make no difference as far as the Play store is concerned.
EDIT3: Installed an unrelated app and it updated my devices on the google play site... now says I have an LGE GT-I9500 instead of an LGE Nexus 4 (despite having changed the ro.product.brand to "samsung"). So I changed the ro.product.manufacturer to samsung as well... still says LGE. I don't see any reference to LGE anywhere in the file. Of course it could be coming up with that based on something else in the file. I didn't change the mako references or anything.
EDIT4: Reverted my build.prop and upgraded to 4.4.2. It won't install on a Nexus 4 with 4.4.2 either. But at least now Play will show me the app and tell me I can't install it rather than pretending it does not exist and showing me a bunch of "Polar Bear" related apps instead of "Polar Beat." So I guess that is an improvement. :laugh:
I have a samsung 4.1 phone. So does that mean I cannot download the app and use the polar H7?
