Chine ads in notification bar - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I have tried air pusher as well as several antivirus software and cant get rid of them. I have also uninstalled apps since the problem began and and still have the problem. Anyone have any ideas? I really dont want to factory wipe unless im out of options. any help would be greatly appreciated

just to clarify. you used airpush detector or addons detector from the market to find out witch apps were causing this?

How long has this been happening for? Did you install a hacked application from outside of the market?

Try Norton's new app spot detector

Dang... that's gotta be annoying. You should probably do a reset and start fresh.

Are you rooted? If so I would do a titanium backup, then create a backup in CWM, wipe all your data and do a clean install, then using titanium backup re load your apps one by one until you find which is the problem application.

it didn't work for me because once i restored my apps, none of them were showing up in market's my apps for updating. i'm coming from the og droid, where my apps were saved with my gmail account then automatically restored. i don't know if that was something added in the roms or if i'm missing a setting, but it's no fun.
You try launching Titanium, then going to Options, Market Tools, Market Doctor? It scans your apps and re-links them to the market.
problem i have with it is everytime i reboot it loses root and have to clear data and ropen to get it to work?
I use the pro version, worked fine for me

When it quits on me I open it go home and kill it in task manager, go back and it works again.

Google Backup/Restore

I just flashed RC3 for CM7.2. Usually when I flash new ROMs, all of my downloaded apps automatically download in Google Play Store, but this time they didn't.
Anyone know why? Is there a way to manually initiate this if auto doesn't work?
Have you considered using Titanium Backup instead? Free or paid, its waaaaaaaaaaaay more reliable than Google Restore.

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. It depends on the ROM.

I think the free one does a good job. I have not tried the paid one though so I have nothing to compare it to.
A little off topic, but related - how do you disable Google restore? Annoys the hell out of me when it starts downloading apps I already have backed up.

You do that when you are setting up the device after a clean flash. It will ask you if you want to use Google Backup and Restore. Just uncheck the box. I'm not sure if it can be turned off after this point.
I also want to know the,answer

It doesn't ask me, it just starts installing apps when I boot the phone. Only happens with some ROMs though.
Edit: Are you talking about the setup process? If there's an option there, I may have missed it.

Up to date apps keep updating after reboot.

Does this ever happen to anyone else?
I can go to play store and make sure everything is up to date, but whenever I reboot there's always 1 or 2 apps that update.
Use to happen on my Epic as well. Not really a problem, just curious as to what causes this.

Done you use root uninstall? Or a backup program? Something is making those apps get checked for install and/or update... I had a couple apps erroneously setup to be reinstalled via root uninstall... Took me a while to discover it, but that is what did it for me.

Happens on stock, and custom roms. Doesn't matter if I wipe caches or not.
I don't use any backup programs.
Happens on 9 out of 10 reboots.

Can u save that batch for every time use
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
U just select what u want to delete in the check boxes and then click start and it uninstalls them takes about 30secs tto check em off and a few mins tto run if its alot of apps. I usually debloat one at a time in tibu tho so I can backup the few I may want later before deleting, or sometimes ill just backup all the system apps in batch then do a batch uninstall

Without talk playstore won't work, removing stock MMS will break picture messaging even with a 3rd party app. Other stuff can be removed but those 2 in your list will break some functionality of the device

Another Option....
Lmao u guys crack me up . I remove some stuff from aosp/cm based roms that I don't use but mostly just stuff that actively runs in the background like tvout or other things that like to autostart. I only do it cuz if i don't use it I don't see a point in wasting ram/CPU and battery on it just chilling in the background for no good reason. But that list is mostly stuff alot of ppl use, or is required for full functionality

You can delete them from the zip with 7zip or a comparable program before installing, but like everyone is saying, there's not much benefit

Wonder when they changed it whenever I removed talk back in the day it would always break my Google accounts. Google must have done some changes in one of the more recent updates to talk which allows the accounts and sync to work without it.

On my evo everytime I would remove it I would get Google account sign in errors and the market would force close. I bet they changed it sometime around when market became play store, or maybe HTC set it up as a dependency in the framework. I don't remember if I ever tried removing it on CM but tried a few times on sense roms only to have to restore a namdroid >_<

be careful getting apps from sites especially if it is something that is free that otherwise costs money on the market the new thing is to embed malware in to a legit package [it runs what it should like the game it says it is] it just happens to have malware embedded with the game.
This would make sense as it would want to try to stop you from installing AV software and it may not be able to stop the market [they have been adding AV stuff and other security slowly] so it stops you where it can.
Now not to say some other issue happened that caused this but it is VERY odd that right after you install an app you are supposed to pay for, but got for free and all of a sudden your device just doesn't allow software installs.

The thing is though it won't install ANYTHING I get outside of the Play Store. If I wanted GameGuardian, it wouldn't let me install it even though I had it before with the same ROM and everything. The only fix I found was to completely reinstall the ROM, and I don't want to reinstall all the apps again.
Do you have any apps running in the background? I remember on my amaze having screen filter on didnt let me click install either.
