Admob frustration, how to get rid of it? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I don't know which app caused it, and I'm already using adfree, but still I'm looking at some nasty white space in a lot of apps.
Before I reinstall evertything, and check which app is using this, are there any other options? Or maybe it's just a Google thing where I just need to live with?

Problem with preinstalled apps

Hi everyone. I have a little but frustrating Problem with my galaxy. My phone came with some preinstalled apps like adiko ebook,layar, google maps...
To keep them updated I reinstalled them using the market. They were all recognized (a message warned me that the market version would subsitute the preinstalled one), but google voice search. Now I have two separate voice search installations running. One is version 1.4.0 and the other is 1.4.6 (it's fiom the market). Is there a way to resolve this issue? Thanks.

Another question would be how can i update it?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
just uninstall the one that you don't want
or uninstall both, then only install the version that you want
some ROM apps, can only be removed after you Root the phone
I think that this is the case, cause I can remore only the one I installed from the market. The preinstalled one it's not even listed in apps management.
Thanks.

And if I root my phone will I be able to remove the preinstalled one and then unroot it to get ufficial updates and warranty? Thanks.

Edit: sorry for being a noob. I found that app in the list of the app manager changing the filter. But still can't uninstall it. Thanks.

In Need of App

Hey guys I'm looking for an app or something that can do something similar to this:
I need to be able to lock purchases from the android market when my kids are playing games on my phone.
Either that or something that allows me to "lock" specific apps..maybe have them require a password to unlock?
I don't want to apply that to ALL my apps cause that would be inconvenient and plus I want my kids to be able to access their games. (Don't like kids mode, and doesn't work if not on mySense.)
So in the end, an app that can block purchases or an app that locks specific apps.
That would be awesome. If you guys know of any please let me know.
Thanks.
There are various apps in the market. Check them out and see which one works for you. Search app lock in the market.

I'm actually using app protector and it works great for me. Password protected and you can choose to have the unlock pattern as well. I have locked gallery and messages as well as the market. Try that out. The also have a lite version u can try out before actually purchasing the app. Good luck

Yes. I'm very aware there are various apps in the market, that's the reason I made this post.
To ask for a recommendation from anyone that might be currently using an app like this.
Thanks anyway.

Facebook is incompatible

I recently reinstated my Facebook and the app was still in my phone, for I had used it plenty before, but when I went to log in after reactivating my account after a few months, it didn't work. I deleted the app and proceeded to the market to reinstall, but now it says my device is incompatible. Also, premium XDa forum app is also "incompatible". I have been playing around with build.prop tweaks but nothing really major, but I cannot figure out how to fix this.

This is the problem. Either restore the original build.prop or install the unlocked Market app will solve it.
I installed market unlocker and tried all of the English market s and a German one to download a few apps that cone up incompatible (Facebook, ROM toolbox, app brain market) but it still continued. I have already tried resetting LCD density, but a seeing reset if there is one for ROM toolbox.

Help with Advertising apps

Hello
Many of you might notice that after you install an app certain adds are installed to your device such as notifications. I would like to know if there is any way to remove those notifications manually. The problem is that i dont know which app installed those adds... usually the icon image is a star. If you can help me post any solution. Thanks in advance

Search at google for an app "Lucky patcher".
This app removes the ads from almost all the apps.
Not sure if it is legal though...
A second-more difficult way is to decompile the apk and clear all the ad-calls, but I don't recommend it.
Cheers
The problem is that ive already tried that but i dont know which app to disable the adds and some apps when i try to disable the adds some patch are success full and others arent. :S

I see... If you don't know what app is causing the notification ads, an easy way to find out is to read the reports at Google Play for each of your apps. Somebody must have complained about it... I can't think of any other way right now...
Afterwards, you can try removing them with Lucky Patcher but it doesn't guarantee that it will succeed... As always...
If you're using a rooted ROM, just use adaway or an hosts file to block ads.

That g don't know, I use a hosts file and have no ads anywhere in the system. But then, I don't know if any of the apps I use throw ads in the notification area were I not using the said hosts file.
Anyway, there are apps that can tell you which app is the generator of the ads in the notification area. I don't know the name of it, but I've read about it. Then, when you find out which horrible app does that, just uninstall it and find an alternative...

There's that lookout ad security app in the market. Use that to see which ads are coming fro.where.

Could be pushing ads. Some market apps do that.
Sent from my Toasted Marshmallow using xda app-developers app
so how do I get rid of it? Even when I reboot it shows up like 5 minutes after.
There has to be a file I can delete any ideas?

...on a side note...you have an LG Mytouch as well don't you? -__-
one of the apps known to push out ads in Chinese is DX Snake Battery...do you have that app installed? or heck, do you have any Chinese apps installed?
So I looked in my root browser and it was in a folder called hack..
Thank you guys for the help though
