REALLY ANNOYING notification problem

[MayDHD]

Hi.

everytime i turn my phone off, a couple of apps will turn on push notifications despite me turning them off via the manage the app setting.

it makes me dread turning it off and is making me hate my phone.

also, does avast actually do anything? i think its draining my battery which used to be really good but now drains as fast as my iphone did.

What apps are the biggest culprits?

I use AVG and I think that is much better than Avast for cellular devices.

angry birds star wars/british airways/super sudoko/eurostar/gobook (those are just a few!)

Tried rebooting the device?

From a Sprint Moto X using AC Forums app

No. Just power off the phone and power it up again.
