I have played Einstein Riddle, by Rottz Games, for quite a while. Starting about two weeks ago, when I try to run it, I am presented with a screen that says “Get this app from Play – The apps installed on your device is not recognized and could harm your device. To continue using this app...

Same BS pop-ups appears when I start a new scrabble game in Classic Words.

Y'all are correct - the banner does seem to be from Google Play Games. B.Diddy - Tried as you suggested: Installed Google Play Games, launched it, removed cache/data, force stopped it, then uninstalled it. However, the effing banner still appears when I launch Shortyz. I then did the same...

No - just rooted it so that I could stop ads - did nothing fancy.

Phone: Google Pixel 7 Pro (and it is a steaming pile) Show system apps: Yes, I looked there also

I just went through every app on the phone, not including the system ones, and the only apps for which notifications are enabled are: Clock, Phone, Settings, Settings Services, Sim Toolkit, Sticky Password, Textra, and Wireless Emergency Alerts.

Notifications are already off for the Play Store and Google Play Games is not installed. In fact, I have already disabled notifications for all Google apps.

I have a rooted Pixel 7 running Android OS V13 and have turned off everything possible to disable automatic updates. I have not installed any new software or changed my phone usage habits for quite a while and the battery charge percentage typically drops about 25% per day. About ten days ago...

I use the program f.lux, see https://justgetflux.com/, on my computer and it is great. Basically itis a program that adjusts the monitor's color based on the time of day. Question: Is there an app like this that will run on a Samsung Galaxy A9 tablet? The built in day/night stuff is garbage...

We just purchased a Samsung Galaxy A9+, model SM-X210 and I would like to root the device,. I am thinking about going the TWRP Recovery route, but… When I go to the page with the TWRP images, namely https://twrp.me/Devices/Samsung/, I cannot figure out which one to get. Please help.

Okay - was able to get there: Model Number: SM-T580 Android Version: 6.0.1 Kernel Version: 3.18.14-10227680 Not sure if this matters, but while doing this the warning window would go away for a second or two, then come back.

My wife's Samsung Galaxy Tab A was working just fine yesterday. She was a bit shy on 'disk' space, so I changed settings in two programs, Kindle and Wild Birds Unlimited, to store the data on the SD card instead of the tablet's memory. After I made those changes, the tablet seemed to work as...
