That's from ES File Explorer. You may have clicked on the charge boost option which adds an annoying ad filled lock screen. It can be disabled in the side menu by sliding the toggle over

Another known culprit is Photo Editor Pro on a recent update. When I Uninstalled it the strange ad laced lockscreen went away. They're in direct violation of Google's app ad policies.
Frankly the app should be summarily pulled out of the play store and the developer banned from distributing anything on the play store for life.

[Q] Widgetlocker Fullscreen without ICS Navbars

Anyone care to share how I would be able to remove those navbars at the bottom and just use the slider? I want the lock screen as simple as possible. Thanks.

I just emailed the developer about this yesterday and he said it was a planned feature in a coming update for rooted devices.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Dope stuff. I think I'll write him an email also. It would be nice to hide em. Plus a couple of instances I have been able to bypass by quickly tapping misc nav buttons... Thanks.

Cut-off page in Android market app

Hi,
Wanted to ask if any users face the same issue.
Refer to attached screenshot.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

}
There is a black bar on the left side as the page was not properly shown. Right side was partially cut off as well. This happened rather frequently until I moved the page a little.
Is this a problem with the market app or my phone? Anyone knows?

I had this on .62FW yesterday. In fact, if you look carefully, this screen shouldn't be shown here. It's showing you "top paying apps" in the "featured" selection.
I guess it's a small bug from market.
Yes, you're right! It's on the wrong page! ! Mine is still on .42 fw though..
If it's the problem of the app, then guess we'll just have to wait for their next update.

for some reason when my auto rotate option is disabled in settings, the youtube app dont rotate anymore. It used to work on my HTC Amaze even when the auto rotate was off. Theyre both different phones so i dont know what causing the problem

Changing app permissions

So I'm having trouble changing app permissions on my G4 running MM. To enable Facebook Groups to see or post pictures I have to disable screen overlay in order to change any of the app permissions. I go to disable it and it still won't let me change the app permissions.

Edit: I figured it out it was Lux. I disabled screen overlay for Lux and that fixed it.

Hello Juice3250
I even have a G4 (LG H815, Android 6.0, Kernel 3.10.84) and the apps who cause that problem was a network monitor, who displays the current network activity on top of the screen. And a bluelight filter..
After that I think that only apps who always cover the screen are causing that problem!
Hope that could help you✌

Ads still appearing

Disabled ads and recommendations in all apps I could find, yet they keep appearing.
Boost speed now is showing ads, security is showing ads, even the file manager started showing ads. How to fix it?
Also tried enabling and disabling "msa" which I had disabled cause I read it would disable the system ads, it didn't help.

Hey Friend I have similar problem too. I turned off permissions/notification when I first bought the phone and all was good until recently. I have ads on Cleaner now and every time I open text messages always asking about chat features. Just today my lock screen and home page changed by themselves. I know text message notification for chat is from Google. Maybe they think phone is old now so send us all this ****.
