Strange market icon appeared.

Any idea what this might be? It's seems like a phasing attempt to me. I can't show a pic atm but I can if need be.

post up that pic, my co worker had a weird one today too..

Have you tried removing it? If it doesn't let you have you tried to go into Titanium Backup and deleting it from there?

That's the website that both the market icon and search take me to. There is no application that's related to these 2 programs that I could find.

You must have installed a crappy app that put those there. Backtrack a little, what were the last apps that you installed?

Thats a tough one. I just did an odin of stock then back to 2.7 calk with ICS theme. I installed about 30 apps not through titanium. I keep a running list and no apps have changed in at least 60 days. Hmm

Your phone has a bug... Factory reset and don't install the "Sexy Time You Have Won a Million Dollars From a Nigerian Price Angry Bards Random APK On The Internet" app this time.

Handango.com is one of the VERY first app markets out there, long before android came about. We're talking palm pc, even before pocketpc which was before even Windows mobile.
It's just YET another marketplace to spend on apps. Think amazon market, Samsung market, etc.
On the other hand, no idea what you installed that got you their market. I HAVE heard of a few apps installing this that came from pirate sites.

Lol +1 and 10 chars

I have a Vibrant and after letting the real Market run updates on a bunch of apps, I ended up with these same two icons.
Download Addons Detector and it will list all the advertising and other junk associated with every app on your phone.

I had that happen on my niece's tablet. It's caused by an app. Just drag and delete the market since its not an actual app but a shortcut to the websites page and then set a new homepage in your browser since the fake market overwrote yours.

Yep this is what I did. I deleted them and cleared my internet cache and so forth. I do find it strange however, because I don't visit any pirate sites at least that I'm aware of. Since delete nothing has come back. Thanks for the tips.

On maps.google.com, you can specifically set your home and work addresses under "my places". Then configure your Google Now settings to always show the card. That should help.

You can set home and work through the maps app on Android too, that's how I did it. Open up the app, tap on the Maps dropdown in the top left and select Location History. That'll show your work and home and when you hit settings from in there you can set them to an address.

Well i gott....how i did it wa just browse to google.com... tick the desktop version sign in and go to account at the account i scrolled to lattitufr and opend dashboard... and there it was!!!!!

Why is Nova Launcher in the title? You can make "desktop" / homescreen folders in the stock launcher, Apex, Nova, etc. We're not working off Android 1.0 here,
I have Navigation (Google Maps, Waze), Reference (Merriam-Webster, Wikipedia), Games (...too many), and Media (...too many),

I don't really use my home screen. Lol. Never can decide what I want to put on it. I'm not creative or imaginative enough.

What I like about nova launcher is you can add more places to the grid because I like to have my categories lining the bottom of my screen just above my bottom static row (phone text Internet etc.)

If we're correcting terminology, that row is called the dock,

Yes, categories.
I don't label my folders. I find an icon for each of my folders that represent the types of apps inside (a picture is worth a thousand words and it looks nicer). It is intuitive for me but not necessarily for someone else using my phone (Custom).
I also use a swype gesture to hide and show my Notification bar and Dock to keep it clean.
Every icon on my main page is a folder containing several relevant apps and shortcuts.

My note 2 sent some garbled message which I didn't know.

This happened in January, as you can see on the attached picture, back then I'm not worried but after reading the malware BadNews. I got worried that this maybe a malware trying to text info from my phone to the developer. Any idea what is this?

I did not get this, but if I were you, I'd hit trash can in upper right immediately? Just me!

Looks more like you're messages app was open with the screen on and you accidentally typed it out and sent it. I mean if you google the characters there really isnt any mention of such an event replicated elsewhere.
Edit : Also if you look closely you will notice that most of the characters are from the left side of the keyboard.

And seeing as you have crossed out the details of the recipient, my guess is that the text was sent to someone you know, not the developer. I give more weight to the accidental typing.

Snoopwall alerts?

Hello to all,, I have my tab pro 8.4 rooted. I don't remember installing anything called snoopwall and don't see it in app manager either.
What is this and where did snoopwall come from, and can I remove it ?
I just recently started getting them.

OK, this might be a really stupid question, but did you try a google search?

LOL really? Of course I did.
I have found that it's some sort of security app, but I haven't installed any of that so I'm stumped at how to disable it, or where I t came from.

Dunno how to remove it (yet), but maybe it hitchhiked in on another app? I hate when app makers bundle other stuff in their apps but it happens on occasion.
EDIT: Ah, think I found out why you can't remove it. According to:
https://snoopwall.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201186946-Why-is-the-uninstall-button-greyed-out-
"SnoopWall needs to be an administrator of your device in order to block access to ports. This means that the administrator access needs to be removed before uninstalling. To do this you should go to security under settings and then click device administrators then uncheck SnoopWall. After this you should be able to uninstall SnoopWall just like any other app."

Mee too
I am having the same experience on a S4. Anyone figure out where this came from?
I don't have an entry under Application Manager for Snoopwall, nor does Titanium see it.
Pissing me off...

Same, I don't see any entry's at all. I'm pretty sure it piggy backed on another app.
Just don't know which one cause it waited a while before giving a notification
I'm thinking of just wiping data and starting fresh

When I had first encountered it, I was unsure how it got installed.
After I flashed a custom ROM it went away, so I figured it was from Samsung
Well it just popped up again, and it did it when I logged into my bank app.
So I removed the notification then logged back into it and it popped up again
So its my backing app lol, basically telling me that I have root

Prob, its more or less for security, because if your not carefully your personal info could be stolen

SnoopWall Mystery
If you bank at a Credit Union and have Installed their APP. More than Likely it installed SnoopWall. Go to the APP and find the security setting and you can set them or turn SnoopWall off.
