Dancing android followed by an ad?

[AC Question]

Recently, not long after installing Lollipop (5.0) in my HTC One M7, I am randomly getting a dancing android, followed by an app, commonly to download some game. I've run some Ad Detectors and Virus scanners but nothing pops-up. Any ideas what is causing this? I tends to happen when I am suing another app, such as Spotify for example.

I would guess its an ad. I have noticed lately that pop up ads are starting to be very common with apps. Annoying, I know.

From an AOSP M8

I'm getting it to. It started to happen after lollipop update. I haven't installed any new apps. Please if anyone can figure out what causes this let us know. I have a verizon galaxy s5 that was updated to lollipop ota.

I'm having the same problem on a G3 with Lollipop. No antivirus or ads removing utility helped me in finding the culprit till now.

I have this too, it pops up a few times a day and linksthe 'indeed' job search app. How do we get rid of it?

Mine finally stopped I found the app responsible. It was an mp3 download app. It was installed before lollipop and I didn't get any ads from it. Looks like lollipop is more prone to ads than kitkat

This is also happening to my wife. We both have Sprint GS5's. Both updated to lollipop. Its not happening to me and guess what, she has an MP3 downloader app. I'll remove it, see what happens, and update.

I've had the same dancing android. I've just removed all mp3 downloaders and it seems to have stopped. Will update if it comes back!
