    Possible Virus - Play Store opens randomly to specific games/apps

    I finally had enough and did a factory reset. I did not reinstall some of the apps I originally had installed. I have read that news apps install that script. So far I have not reinstalled any news apps even tho I read my local one daily. I did however lose some sprint apps that were...

    Possible Virus - Play Store opens randomly to specific games/apps

    I do not have "site settings" on my Note 3, or none I can find. I had the adds stopped by the airpush opt out app then I downloaded a news app and BAM annoying popups are back. I cleared cache and deleted app but they are still there. It ticks me off. I have done everything other than factory...

    Possible Virus - Play Store opens randomly to specific games/apps

    I went to this site and did the opt out thing on Saturday morning and so far no pop ups. A friend did the same optout but she is still getting popups, so worth a shot I guess. Opt-out | Airpush | Mobile Ads Redefined

    Possible Virus - Play Store opens randomly to specific games/apps

    I do not use Chrome and it has been turned off since I got the phone. I also do not have simple mp3 or other apps folks say was the cause. I have stopped the play store until I need it. My spouse found what caused the pop ups on his phone ad-x-co.uk however we cannot find where it is on the...

    How to get rid of virus?

    We have this same thing happening on our Note 3 phones. I do not use chrome and in fact have it turned off. I cleared the defaults for the browsers and I now use CM Security to open any web page and click just once. If I go on the internet I use firefox. I still get the "notice" that something...

    Possible Virus - Play Store opens randomly to specific games/apps

    Nothing has worked for me. It still happens and is so dang annoying!! I have tried all the suggestions and nothing stops it! I down loaded CM Antivirus, let it scan and nothing was found. I also have Lookout installed but it finds nothing. CM AV is the only new app I have downloaded in months...

    Possible Virus - Play Store opens randomly to specific games/apps

    I just checked the admin settings on my Note 3 and I did not have any apps with admin rights. It only shows Lookout and Smart Switch but neither of those are checked. It is beyond annoying at this point. I have tried all suggestions and nothing seems to fix it.

    Possible Virus - Play Store opens randomly to specific games/apps

    I do not have a pirated app on my phone. Any apps I have downloaded came from the Play Store. I have not downloaded any new apps in awhile and this redirect started about 2 weeks ago.

    Possible Virus - Play Store opens randomly to specific games/apps

    The same thing is happening to my Note 3. If I get a notification of any kind it sends me to the play store and some stupid game app, or if I go to my message app, which is the stock message app, then it directs me to the play store. I do not have adblock nor the music paradise apps and I have...

    Any faith left for sprint

    We have been Sprint customers since January 2000. The only issue we had was from Aug 2013 to about Dec when they were upgrading towers in my area. Just recently my husband does not receive my texts or some of them anyway and on occasion I don't get one or two from him. We are on same plan with...

    just how crappy is my service

    We have been told since last August by Sprint that "networks were being ungraded" nationwide. Should be done by end of year blah blah. There is about a mile on my way to work that I cannot get a signal. I drive 15 minutes to work and we have sprint towers all over my area. We have been with...

    Sprint Note 3: security update after KitKat

    We get the same thing. It would not update because I had wireless turned off. I turned on wireless and let it update, no more notifications. I also hate all the permissions with it but seems all apps require way too much info on us.

    Sprint Note 3: KitKat impressions, let's post them here.

    The hi galaxy feature does not work from sleep mode. We have to go to s voice app and tell it what to do. Liked it the other way. Battery drain is fast since update for both of our Sprint GN3 phones. I don't like to do a factory reset but seems that is the "fix" instructions we get for...
