spam problem - Galaxy S II General

for some reason, and i dont know where it came from... but i have this stupid lil white star, with a red circle in my top notification bar...
this time it says "need quick cash?" then you click it, and it tries to open a browser... but since i have 2 installed, it just gives me the option..
does anyone know what this is? or how i can find where it is in my phone... so i can delete this crap
any help would be great......
and ive only noticed this since i did the xxxki4 upgrade

Try https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adaway

how do i use this program to show me the problem file, so i can delete it?

Magic Button - Phone Icon Bug?

I noticed.. when I open up my phone and try to close it, it will not close. I try to close all, close it individually, and the phone icon will just sit there no matter what I do.
So then I go in and check the "Dont show when inactive" and it finally got rid of it..
Now I noticed when I load up my phone, the icon isn't a phone icon anymore.. instead I get a broken MS note icon thing..
Anyone else have this problem?
I've tried to go back in and uncheck the "dont show when inactive", and the icon is still broken.. also tried a soft reset.. still a broken icon.
The Phone app does not close once you open Speed Dial or History. This is not a problem. Get a better Close Button app like HandySwitcher or, even better, wClose.

Problem on rotate my HD

normally, when we open the opera and rotate the HD to horizontal, the screen also will rotate, but i facing a problem with it now. once i rotate it, it will bring me back to the home screen, i tried many times, but it still can't rotate and bring me back to the home screen.
but, this problem can be solved after i do the softreset. after softreset, the problem will come back again after few days.i still can't figure out whether is my installed application crash or what.
anyone can help?
nobody know? please help...thanks in advance
It is most likely that you installed a color top bar and you installed the wrong one (some play nice, while some don't). If that's the case, just go grab a different color top bar (almost all the new ones are fine, it was really only a problem with some of the early ones)

it is all right, dude.
actually, mine colour topbar is downloaded from here also.
or maybe you just tell me the name of your topbar, i believe you can see the top bar name from the Remove Program there. Million thanks..

Small on-screen edit button

Does any one know how to stop the small on-screen edit button from appearing everytime you go to start a new sms/email etc. I had this over six months ago on my xperia and for the life in me i can not remember how to stop it, i have searched and searched for the answer, It is so annoying and gets in the way of some text. Many thanks.
mind posting a screen shot?
can't see anything on mine that could be what you describe.
Thanks for the reply, here's the screen shot, the edit box is at the top right of the text box. If i click on it a pop up box appears and gives me options like, cut, copy, paste etc.
Ahh i assumed you meant in HTC messaging, not the windows messaging, thats why i couldn't see it.
10 minutes later - OK, sorry, i cant seem to find how to start win messaging on the cooked rom i'm on, , , sorry.
Thanks anyway, think i'm gonna try a different rom, bit bored of this one now.
Hehe, ahh yea, thats usually my answer too

How can I get sms-popup on the lockscreen?

I did get a HD2 today while I've been using HTC Hero (android) for about 4 months.
Now CAN I get some sort of sms-popup or preview in the lockscreen when I get a sms? I hate the way to go to the sms now, I want to see it directly when I get it aswell as I want the screen to turn on!
If this can't be possible on this phone, then well will hand this biggy thing back to the store!

It took me all of 3 seconds to find it, read Samuels instructions carefully.
Check the 2 attached screen shots.
You need to go to Settings tab and then click Menu > All Settings

Thx so much haha! I didnt scroll down to Message.
ok i see what the man wants and i did what the others said. heres the problem. it flashes up the msg preview for all of 5 seconds while its awake but if on standby i only get a blink of it b4 the lockscreen takes over... the lockscreen is mahoosive with 1 lil slider so wheres the option for the preview to be part of the lockscreen ie. preview to stay on there unill unlocked.. is this possible cus altho this thread taugt me something new its pointless if the preview blinks in my pocket and when i come to have a quick check of my screen its just the tap/slide new msg slider again as before... hmmmmm helpage!
I think what he's after is something similar to the S2U2 option to view unread SMS/MMS/Email etc while the screen is locked... Personally I don't think its possible with the native lockscreen, but I'd love to be proven wrong...

sort of, right my last phone was a c902 and if the keypad was locked and u got a txt it would pop up a window stating who its from and the 1st line of the txt and if u didnt notice you had a txt but took it out of your pocket say 10 mins later and just clicked a button to wake it up but not unlock the keys the window, ya know just quickly checkin it see if your popular lol, that window would still be there... then ya can either unlock and read or put strait back in ur pocket to read later... its soooooo simple it should be standard. the preview thing on here is only really useful for when im browsing like now iv just had a txt and i know who its from lol but on the lockscreen if you test it out it littery just flashes.grr lol

Just as stated before: Take a look at S2U2 2.41. It does exactly what you want.
oh yea baby that works a treat! much better and bigup respects man lol all is goo now
question from first post was solved, but i dont want to create another topic, because my case is connected.
anybody knows if there is any possibility to get sth like it was in wm5 during receiving sms ?
ok, now i can have a popup, great, but only with one key - LHK (Hide) ...
on wm5 i had RHK with options like: save as read, delete, reply
and im missing that option very much ... cause when i get delivery report im unable to delete it at once ... i must go to htc messages, open it and delete ...

How did you get that upper taskbar? Is there a cab or something? I'd like to give it a try. perhaps you could share the cab and instructions?
Thanks a lot.

Plz help with my htc hd2 not working right after I installed something (got it fixed)

I just downloaded diniks taskbar and it really messed up my phone, first there's no icons at the top just the time and start. But when I press start nothing happens my phone is freezing bad I can't even go to the file explorer, I removed the taskbar through pc. Please help me my phone isn't working right at all.
Ok my phone isn't freezing up anymore and I have removed the program through my pc, finally went to file explorer and it's not showing up on there so what I want to know is why don't I have my icons back at the top, why can't I have my phone back like it was before I installed the taskbar 1.5. I still can't go to the start screen when I press it and when I get a call or text the icons show, the icons that show are the ones that I wanted in the begining(dinik anastasia taskbar) why are they showing if I removed it?
I encountered this before and I tried real hard trying to find out what caused it. After you installed the application, did you reboot your phone? It could be other programs having compatibility issues with it. I just ended up hard resetting my phone. The lesson I learned is to make notes after each installation and do a tideous test if I can of the functionality of the phone just to make sure everything is working properly before I install another app again.
Hopefully someone else has a better solution.
I just got it fixed someone from another site helped me out, I had to install one more thing to make it work right. I feel better now lol...

What exactly did it take? It would help others dealing with it if you posted what you found.
I know what you did
You forgot to insall he skcert.cam. I know this because I just did this last night. I figured out that my bottom home menue still worked though. I scrolled all the way to settings and removed the task bar.
I thought that once you installed it once you wouldnt have to install it again when you wanted to change your task bar. I was wrong. Each time you uninstall a task bar and want to install another one you must run the cert file.

That's what I forgot to do install skcert.cam, but what was freaking me out is why my phone was freezing up really bad.

I too had to learn this the hard way. I did not need a hard reset just moved the slider to remove programs and restarted and it was fine. I had to use the updated skcert cab though the first one did not work at all. But now I am styling with the dinink taskbar

I don't mind learning lessons the hard way. As long as they don't brick my phone. LOL. That is what is stopping me from flashing a rom. I am scared of messing it up. one little mistake and its back to my old beat up blackberry LOL>
