Shazam causes that alot, but what he said above its a application. Whenever that pops up think of what application you just got down running or closed out of, and that should be the cause.

What browsers do you have installed?
I get that every so often as well

Use this app to determine what you installed on your phone that has notification based advertising:

Apparently a few things were added like the wishlist.

Pretty cool, however, why the heck can't they allow you to filter My Apps so you just see your purchased ones. And I'm tired of scrolling through hundreds of apps I tried over a year ago! Is it really that hard to allow users to remove apps from their list???

Would be set if they fix the scrolling resetting when searching for something

Yes so annoying
How come mine didn't update yet isn't it supposed the same be automatic
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Seems much faster but it could be the placebo effect. Aside from that it looks the same. Curious to see if I ever use the gift card feature. maybe I'll ask for one as an X-mas present.
Just read that the update also adds smart update feature. Now you only download the changed parts of the app, not the whole thing.

Download no lock from the market.

It have the settings for that.
No need for 3rd Party apps.
Go to Menu-Settings-Security-Lock Screen-Select none.
Job done!

I'm pretty sure it's there so when you accidentally turn it on in your pocket, you don't go calling random people and burning thru the battery. Just sayin

thank you jesus
Why would you use 3rd party app to disable a freaking lock screen. I wish it was simple as wm 6.5 registry edit that *****.

Can anyone tell me what app is generating these spam notifications???

Havent installed anything new lately, but obviously been keeping apps updated.

Looks like dungeon hunters 3 i used to get those when i had that installed. It also could be clouds and sheep but then again i could be wrong. Looks defo like a Gameloft game or a glue game.
Thanks, I dont have either of those installed, but will look for something close to those.
The most recent app that i installed was the purchased version of Tapatalk, but I doubt that it would be the culprit.

Install 'Airpush Detector' from Google Play & run it.

You shall look for air-push opt-out app, it does it PERMANENTLY, so you'd be protected in the future as well

[Q] App Locks

Im looking for an app lock that will only lock the application manager built into the system of the phone and not the full settings. I dont want to try removing it nor know if i can. Help is much appreciated.

I haven't used this app , but it says you can lock any app and the uninstaller...so it might be worth a look..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2287214
I'm not sure if it will lock the app totally or if it has settings...sorry. I dont have time today to check it out...But I can later.
Hope this helps..
