Strange Ads on CM10.1 - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I sometimes use the emoji keyboard that I downloaded off of the Play Store, but right now I 'froze' the app via Titanium Backup Pro because almost 3 times a day, I will get strange advertisements in my notification bar/drawer. And note that I only see this in this CyanogenMod ROM I'm running right now, when I'm running stock TouchWiz, these strange ads never appear. Is there any way to prevent these annoying ads?
Forgot to mention that I do have AdAway installed and working, but it doesn't work for the emoji keyboard.
I'm running CyanogenMod Version: 10.1-20130304-EXPERIMENTAL-d2tmo-M2

You can try using an air push blocker, or a different keyboard like go keyboard or kii which both have emoji inputs

This one, for example.

Also if running jb or higher hi can long press on the notification and select app info. That will take you to the a app info screen and select disable notifications.

I use Sound Manager V2 on the market. It's free.....
Get Quick Settings from the Market for free. Open it, go to Volume Control, tick the check box at the top and then click Set. Back out of the app and never worry about it again.
i use Widgetsoid 2 from Market

Swype on galaxy problem with input method notification?

everytime I use Swype I get a "select input method" notification. I'm running axi0m2.2 and have used two different Swype programs. Both give me the notification at the top everytime I use it. Anyone have that problem or solution?

It's not a problem that's how it is now whenever you have more than one input method.

I never had that problem and have multiple input methods. Once I select Swype it stays that way. I'm running RomannBB's ROM and this version of Swype : https://plus.google.com/108096915458146487046/posts/DTiEnMemga7

Because roman has an option to turn that off. It has nothing to do with what version of swype and it isn't a problem.

This feature makes no sense. It gives you an icon Everytime you open Swype?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
It gives you an option to change your input method no matter what keyboard you are using without long pressing because Google is trying to move away from long presses. It has nothing to do with swype.

I fully understand that, but is there a way to bypass it? From what i understand on certain roms you can, certain roms you can't? I've tried everything i can but it bothers me, everytime i see it i feel i have a text or e-mail. Very annoying.
You could rename, freeze or delete the other keyboard not in use. This will stop the input in status bar because there no other option to choose.
You could do what the Peron above me said, or you have to flash a rom that removes it unfortunately :/ I know Romans rom AOKP has an option to toggle it on or off.

You have to use a custom Rom that disables that notification.

More specifically freegs3 you have the option to disable during install of rom
The keyboard notification is there to let you change keyboards because long press on text boxes no longer bring up a menu but rather the copy paste function in ICS

+1. Is it even worth stepping back from jedi 6.1.2? The only thing I can think of is the better battery life of the stock rom over the custom ones if all we are getting is the multi windows software from this.

I've noticed that there are new ink colors for the pen on the lock screen. Also, it feels like haptic feedback is a bit weaker.
Anyone know if we can customize the toggles in the notification window?

Try under display. I see it on clean ROM, and someone said theyd noticed they were rearranged I bet they included that as well.
Don't see anything under display. Bummer I guess
For some reason the multi view is not working any more.
I got the little tab. . But when I click program like google mail and Chrome the open in full screen. It worked for a few hours but then it stopped. ..

Patching it using ExynosAbuse breaks the camera now, though.
Back Button does not activate multi-window
I am on stock ROM no rooting done at all.
After the update, tried to hold down the back button but will not activate the multi window.
I can only activate it on the notification bar.
Please advise and thank you.
I would make sure under settings that its enabled and if it is then try a reboot and renable the feature as I have two notes one which is stock and works just fine

Iphone style lock screen

Im using the galaxy s2 with jelly bean installed. I want to use pin unlock but is there something more like the iphone, in android unlocking is a bit slower and has to press 'OK'
after pin. And also using camera directly takes more time as the screen is shown rotating and then we have to insert PIN for that. So if I have to use camera very quick inserting PIN takes time..unlik iphone which offers PIN but for shorcut as we slide the screen up we see the camera already hiding beneath. Any help please?

Try to set a shortcut on lockscreen to the camera app. ( havent checked if its working)

cyanogenmod and aokp rom has this feature,
samsung custom roms may have this too.
i'm using chemeleon rom now and got this feature.
I think that he means that on an iPhone you can have pin lock screen set up and your phone secure but if you want to take a picture you can just show the camera with out unlocking the phone. This has been done by HTC and I don't think it is possible currently
Yeah thats what I mean. I want to use quick camera without unlocking with phone still secured. Unlike ios here its slow to execute it like that
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Suppose I use a ROM like AOKP to get that feature. How do I restore my back files I do using kies which is saved on PC. Because the new rOM does not connect to lies. Help please
And also if Samsung uses kies, what does a Google phone use to back up?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Use titanium backup to back up apps and texts. Everything else should be fine with flashing copy music, photos etc to a computer if you want extra security
If you are rooted, I suggest you flash SuperNexus ROM following the instructions here
Ive tried the aokp build 5 jelly bean 4.2.2. Though there are some changes in it, the main thing was only the lockscreen as features like photosphere was not available. So is it possible to use the official ROM and still get the lockscreen of 4.2.2 as an app?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Just install lockerpro from market.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Ive gone back to official rom as aokp is not very stable and also lack features and details.
Also lockerpro cannot open camera directly without unlocking like 4.2.2

Hi.
Creator of LockerPro here. In the last update we added the secure camera from Android 4.2.2 so you can access the camera without having to unlock.
Thanks for your interest for our apps.
