Why is my phone randomly downloading and installing apps?

[Cyrhus Mancao]

Hey so I just rooted my phone and I have no idea if it is connected to my problem right now. So why does my phone randomly getting apps and installing apps without my permission and without me knowing what's going on? I need reply pls. It only happens when i'm on WiFi.

Welcome to Android Central! What did you use to root the phone? Perhaps whatever you downloaded to root might have also installed some other adware or malware.
