Alarm can't be Silenced

[Minkling]

I have an alarm set to wake me up in the morning. When I go to bed I plug the phone in to charge. In the morning when the alarm goes off there is an ad banner on the screen and when I close it I can't get phone to stop ringing. I have to turn the phone off to stop the alarm. I have it set to daydream with the digital clock in night mode. Thanks. I downloaded Addons and it shows that Flash Player has push notifications but I can't find where it is installed.

My question is, what ad banner? What on earth have you loaded on this phone that is popping an ad banner on the lock screen??

Usually an ad for something like do you want to make more money or something like that. I am not sure what I could have loaded that could do that. I have a few of the most popular games, a ringtone downloader andany PNC banking. The ad has two choices I haven't clicked on any of the links to see where they go. Okay I clicked the link and it took me to a site m.bizzmo.us something called Bizzmo Mobile

You ahve some, serious adware on that baby! You downloaded a very naughty app. You aren't using a different alarm or clock app are you? Couple of things you can do, ... factory reset and start over, that's my best suggestion, then take some time and research the apps you install, read the comments! If you don't want to factory reset, have a look at your battery usage and see if there is a particular app running that seems suspect, uninstall it. Keep doing this until you figure it out. When my alarm goes off all I get is the swipe left/right option to snoze or dismiss.

Mybe download lookout ad network detector and see if you can figure out which app is rogue.

I was using 3D clock but it still used the factory clock. It stopped responding this morning. I have been very careful with what I downloaded, Angry Birds Space, Hill Climb Racing, Temple Run 2 nothing that didn't have at least 4 stars. I will keep looking.

I would uninstall 3d clock and see if that is the culprit.

I had already done that and it didn't help. I looked further and the Flash Player said that it has AirPush and LeadBolt as push notifications. There were instructions on how to remove them but the reviews were spotty at best. I would stop the service and it would start itself back up so I uninstalled it through settings. It wasn't an app that I had downloaded either it was bundled with one of the games or came on the phone. No problems with the alarm this morning.

Try "Notification History"--> https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...s/details?id=com.evanhe.nhfree&token=7jNh3g0C to help track down the App that's producing those Notifications.

Now that I have removed the Flash Player they have stopped. The crazy thing is that I can't find where it was installed and it isn't available on the Google Play store.
