I don't know what this came with but has anyone seen this random popup when opening app drawer or google voice - it'll also bring up Heroes of Dragon age from the play store randomly. How do I get rid of it? Thanks. Sorry, I don't know how to resize images.

they look more like ads... Do you remember which app you installed before they started appearing?
Try uninstalling that app... It may solve your issue...

that shouldn't be too hard..
If I am correct,the new apps are placed last in touchwiz... try going back in that order....
I will recommend making a list of apps using list my apps or similar app so that u can install the apps that were removed in the process here..
u can also check recently updated apps in my app section in Google play,that may also be doing that..
good luck!!

Long press the bar and edit it as you see fit.
Thanks a lot!
Am I missing something? I don't get any way to edit the bar if I hold down on it. It just glows, and when release it goes to the store.

It doesn't work for me. I can edit the bar to remove the playlist, artist tab ect but not the amazon shortcut in the player.

could someone answer this as i need help with this too.
anyone??????
I believe the OP is talking about this:
The bar at the bottom that says featured and Amazon. It annoys me too and I would like to get rid of it.

Exactly what i mean too.
To my best belief (verification needed) the only way to remove this it to get rid of Amazon app (via recovery mod ie.)...
So...my market is going crazy with updating apps...it started with about 7...and now its up to 85! This image has it at the 70s...what's going on? Its not getting any less...it just goes up and down...I usually update my apps as needed but I don't think ALL the apps are due for an update? Anyone else experiencing this? Here is the screenshot...look at the top...

Edit :: Wow...now its at 94...! What the heck is going on?? I tried rebooting the phone...but it made no difference.
Did you set it to sync with AppBrain?
Try going to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications.
Then go to the "All" tab and find Download Manager and clear data for it.

So I was hanging up on a call and noticed that in the "ongoing" notification, it said"device management - downloading software update, please do not" and had a little notification icon on the bar of 2 arrows facing opposite directions grey/blue one red. I tried to click the notification but got nothing, so I long press and looked at app info. It said AT&T software update Version v42_1_1303_5_1. I have tried searching this exact version number but nothing comes up on here or on google. I shut the phone off until further notice so I can see if this update is going to screw me in any way. Right now I am just rooted w/ TWRP recovery, but I don't want to do anything that locks this phone up. 32gb AT&T S4.
Thanks
EDIT: scratch that, i had written down the version number incorrectly, it is trying to download v42_1_1303_5_1 (not _0_5). Still, does this mess things up bad? trying to read that now.
Also, the watch on app out of nowhere is now putting its remote in the notification pull down at start up without me even touching the application. I like the app and use it from time to time but I havent touched it in a few days and now it is auto-starting on its own, strange.
Hey, I noticed the watch on app doing the same thing on mine. I didn't realize I got an update but my phone did do an unexpected reboot and watch on was running in my notification tray also.

It's just a theory, but it sounds like "Samsung Push" services might be doing some updating for you.
I intentionally turn off OK Google detection so my phone is doing one less thing, but it still is working and the options are disabled. I've only recently started to notice this. Tried to enable and disable the options again... no joy.

This may be painfully obvious, and I'm not trying to sound sarcastic at all, but:
Have you tried saying OK Google to see if it's actually working? How about just removing the widget from your home screen and replacing it with one that isn't voice activated? Or perhaps both..

Yes, it does work when saying OK Google. Also, would removing it prevent the mechanism on the backend that's listening from working also? Or would the service still be running?
I know that when I removed it, there didn't seem to be any listening going on. I think it uses this process in Maps as well as a couple other GApps, so after removing it you can try it in there/disable it in there as well. If you have root, you can always freeze it with TB. I completely removed it from my phone, so I don't have it to play with to try to find these things out. That's always the first thing I do, so I know very little about tinkering with system apps without root.
You can enable OK Google in settings.
try disabling your google account in settings.
Hi All,
past for months randomly cell standyby and Android OS has been eating my battery.
However past 2 days using WakelockDetector, it shows the Google App waking up my phone many times (screens below) - anyone know a fix for this?? Ive only got 'Ok Google' enabled on the app and location services off - thats the only things i can think of??
pebble is a normal wake as i was using it earlier in the day

He can use a Samsung system app disabler even without root, such as this one that I use:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hecorat.packagedisabler
Just disable the Google app package with this

Wow this looks useful - did you see a battery increase after using this? Don't want to pay really if its not worth it.

It's just a package disabler, and if you have a wakelock that consumes battery, disabling it will of course fix the problem. When the app is disabled, it's the same as uninstalled = it can't wake your device and no battery will be consumed
