Good days folks,
I have a software called "Armor for Android" (which an antivirus) keeps dwnloading every while from unknown source!
I am attaching 3 pics to show you the problem. I even installed and run the application but still, it keeps downloading.
the application is not available in the play strore but the apk gets installed from a source which I don't know. I got the devise since one month only and I am new to android software.
please help me thankfully.
Someone on amazon put this in his review
This came with Tech Font, Clean Font, or Gothic Font for FlipFont, not sure which, but when I uninstalled them, it went away, so far. It hides itself from any application or process monitors, so I'll edit this review if it comes up again.

Seems like it acts more like malware than an antivirus. Could possibly be downloading virus database updates. But if you really wanna use an antivirus program use avast or avg not some random program you don't even know where it came from
I like to break stuff!
It doesn't even scan for viruses. the damn thing offloads work to a site owned by google (that explicitly states NOT to use for commercial purposes) and AFTER it has been scanned by the site, the program flags the files as clean and NEVER offloads the files to scan ever again. it's the most useless garbage i've ever heard of and any positive reviews are FAKE
Guys, Thank you for your replies but actually the problem not yet solved. I catched the website the file downloading from suddenly:
dl.trafficmanager.net
I tried to open this webpage but it keeps giving me server error. I am not sure if this thing would be helpful. If you have any ideas, I will be thankful if you could share it.

It looks like that's the download server. After playing around with it, I think I see what they're doing. You probably have your browser open on their download page. Every time you start your browser it downloads the install apk to your device again. I noticed it when I went back to my browser. Try closing that page or navigating away from it. The downloads should stop.

I don't own the Evo but I got a chance to play with one. I noticed the screen froze up every time I tried to download from Megaupload. I tried it again and the same thing happened. Was this just a fluke?
Trust me, Im loading mine up with "good" software and most of it is either torrents of file sharing sites like you describe and I have had no issues on either.
However, getting a good torrent app is a bit of a challenge. I ended up using andTorrent as aBTC kept force crashing.

I can't download from sharing sites because of their countdown timer, doesn't work right, so i just grabbed skyfire for those sites.
The countdowns are java based. As long as you have java script enabled in your browser it should work. I just grabbed a file last night off of 4shared with the stock browser with no problems.

Sweet! Thanks a lot guys!
I have found the timers will sometimes lock up is you zoom in or out on the screen. As loon as I leave the screen also (can switch windows though) it is ok.

I just got a Facebook update on my phone, that turnaround is pretty damn impressive.
i did not get the update yet.....
I take that back.... just got the update! Only if they could push out a OS update this fast!
Reinstall facebook on your phone, after that it's working like a charm again
Is it just me or does it load much faster after the update?
Hello all, thought I come here and post this since the developer of the reinstaller app doesn't have any support email attached to the app.
The app had a v1.5 update yesterday and haven't been able to download any app from the marketplace since this V1.5 update. The app just quits upon tapping the download icon....it doesn't invoke the marketplace installer and it just dies taking you to the start screen.
Is this update bad? Too bad I have updated already but if you haven't don't till this problem is solved somehow if only the developer gets to know and if only I'm not the only one expieriencing it.
If anyone has a solution please help, don't know if i'm the only one with this problem.
Thanks and a happy sunday

I don't think it could be a matter of market, because before this update, I could use it without any problem...
I have the exact same issue and already contacted the dev. He says he didn't Change anything on the logic and means it could be the Website having issues. I doubt that though since I can Access it perfectly fine via IE mobile or from my notebook.
Here's the support email address as it can be found in the about page of the app : [email protected]
+1...same issue, login process is just fine but it can't connect to app scan process...!?!?
I don't like the developer answer...should dig his app a little more...hope he will fix that soon I was waiting for those new features!
The app update has brought us problems....too bad
I am in the US and having the EXACT same problem. Dev definitely needs to fix this!
Able to log in and do the app count and everything. Like the new layout. But when I pick an app and try to download it, it doesn't do anything. Just blacks out and goes back to the phone app list.
Hopefully a fix is out soon. Good thing I'm not planning on flashing any ROMs now.
Yep same problem over here!
I just downloaded it, because everybody told me that this app is great, if you are too old to remind all your purchased apps Even if in my case they are only a few..
I'm from Germany.
I'm able to log in, and it counts all the apps, but when i try to download or to show me the purchased apps etc. it unfortunately does not work anymore.. :/
But lately I remembered the name of most of the Apps..
I hope it will be fixed soon
Cheers!
Here is reinstaller v1.0 which actually works better than v1.5...what a shame...
Hope it will help...
Dev Response
All - I am the developer of this app and while I'm really sorry that some of you are running in to these problems, it seems it is not affecting everyone alike.
There are some reviews that report that the app works just fine for them even with the update.
My take is that some kind of hardware/software variation is involved in this problem (after all, it made it through certification).
I'm working on this problem and will submit another update today. However, it will still be a week before it reaches you.
Thanks for your support and sorry again for the incovenience caused.
- Ashish
Hi, first, thanks a lot for this app, it's a must have...
Secondly, thanks for your care, I'm so disappointed for not being able to test 1.5...and will see, today if I have enough time, if it's a matter of rom...but it would be surprising as 1.0 is just working fine...
Good luck, hope you'll find the way out of this trouble easily
Testers invited
Just fixed a few things and would like to know if you can test the XAP file for the following issues -
1. App not able to fetch app list for non-US Live IDs
2. App crashing when tapping the Install button after app scan is finished
3. App crashing when clicked on Install button on the app/games selection page
Drop me note as ashish [at] wpfied.com if you see any of the above issues along with your device, Live ID country and WP build number (if possible).
Thanks.
Thanks for that! I was having the same problem as stated. I'm so used to having an unlocked phone, with my Focus, that I tried to load the QR Xap on the Lumia 900! Can't wait for full access...

Can you provide another one as this one wont install. Think it's a problem with certificate.
Edit** Nevermind, just used Multiple XAP Installer http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943842 as it signs it before installing, and all went well.
Revision 2
Thanks to those tested it. I've some more changes and would like you all to test it once again for me -
1. Apps/Games pivot is gone since it doesn't seem to work for non-English phones
2. Need to test if tapping install button on the app selection page still crashes the app
Thanks,
Ashish

This one worked perfect!
The second .xap you posted here is better, now it counts my apps, i tested it, and i works. but it is supposed to be that we tap every app manually to install after it opens the marketplace?
tested device: htc 7 pro
OS: 7.10.8107.**
Language settings on German
location setings also.
APP Works.
On HTC Titan it crashes when I click on Install after I download the list of the apps. Even if I select only one of them ...
I have written this on the main interface page and received no answers.
On some pages I get to a point where no matter how many times I click on the back button, the page goes nowhere. When I long click on the back button it shows a list and there are pages of the same link that has the word ads in it. If I click on the bottom item in the list and long click on the back button again, the same list comes up. If I do this several times, I finally get to where I was to navigate to the page.
While I haven't actually taken the time to count, I am sure that there are over 40-50 page listings that come up from one page with only a few messages.
I am using IE9 and I want to know what I can do to stop this overtly evil behavior. I fully understand the need for ads but I don't see any good reasoning to hijack my page. If I click on a link in the page, I can then go back to normal. It doesn't happen on every page, just sometimes.
Since my bookmark to this site is on IE9 and not Chrome or Firefox and since I navigate to this site only on my desktop, I don't get the problem elsewhere. This behavior is only on this site. Some sites open pop under windows (also evil) and pop up windows (annoying) but this one really gets me angry.
Again, how does one get this bad beharior to stop???!!!
Please help:crying:
I just went back to the offending page and several times it only had two instances of the ads link. I then went to Chrome and it didn't happen at all. I know there is evil here because it is related to advertising. Is someone posting hiding something here? Is the site doing this to me? Is it an attack on IE because of the anti microsoft sentiment?
Why Why Why???
I'm done. I'm hoping for some answers now.
Sorry about the rant. I have to use IE because it is what my non technical wife is used to and the always there bookmarks on the left are important. We also have land line becasue she won't give it up.
Ummm. Don't think your in the right place dude. You'd be better off searchin ms support or at least using a windows forum. This is Android!
But to try to help, sounds like a browser hijacker, or malware. You need to run scans with malwarebytes, spybot, hijack this, anti-virus....you get the idea.
Sorry I can't help you more than that. Good luck

If you haven't already, download and run malwarebytes. Its one of the best and can find tons of stuff that regular AV can't.
As for bookmarks, if it comes to it there are utilities you can use to back them up. Then uninstall/reinstall IE.
You can also import bookmarks from/to chrome.

While looking for another solution (to another problem) I found your post. The same thing happened to me today on this site.
The problem is not your PC, nor your browser and is not a malware issue either. In fact, it's from a script that is specifically designed to disable the browsers' back button. You see, the back button does not generate any revenue towards pay-per-click and/or similar schemes. Click-throughs, however, will...
Chances are that one of the page ads loaded the script (usually java) and set a cookie as well (to prevent one from replicating the problem).
Closing the browser window is about the only way to get around it. Holding the pull-down for the back-button only shows numerous versions of the same page.
Other browsers have plugins that can prevent the script from running in the first place and/or block the ads entirely.
If it keeps happening then you should contact one of the Forum Mods.
Hope this helps.

Can't delete or move unless we happen upon it (like I just did) or you report it. Not like we have filters that send us PMs whenever someone types Delete or Move. Doesn't work that way, fellas. Sorry

At OP, if you are still having problems with the site, got to the main XDA page and flag an admin to check out your issues. Plus you could search there and if no results pop up or no one else is having the issue, there error could be between the chair and keyboard. If you want this to remain open, it is your choice but you will have better luck in the main XDA section, rather than the SGS3 section.
Shoot me a PM if you want it closed. If no PM by morning my time, then it is gone.
So I've been waiting for this game to come out on android since December and I just found out yesterday that it finally did. Although I've been trying to download it and had no such luck. It wouldn't come up anywhere in my play store results, so I went to play.Google.com to check it out. When the Web page loaded and loaded the compatability list, it said "this app is Incompatible with all of your devices". I decided to add it to my wishlist so that I could view it on Google play, and when I went to it, it said "this app isn't available in your country".
Since it is a free app, I've tried downloading it from apkmania and putting the data where it needed to go, but when I open the app, it loads the digital entertainment splash screen, then crashes. I've tried the powervr, armv7, and mali-400 apk's and data, but no such luck.
If anyone can figure out why the hell this isn't working and report back to me, that would be awesome, since I've been extremely impatient since it was released and it's driving me nuts trying to figure what's wrong.
I have a t-mobile samsung galaxy s III t999 and I'm in the us. I've even tried market helper to spoof my device but again, no luck.
Thanks again. I've included the link below to see if anyone can get it working on their phone. Again, since it's a free game, if anyone needs the apkmania link, I have that as well.
