Is anyone using root call blocker app? Is it working on galaxy note 4. I tried the latest version from play store and it keeps restarting the radio. Anyone else using this app can please share your experience.
Thanks

Have a look at the app below which looks promising. Haven't tried it myself but came across it being recommended on the lifehacker website if am not mistaken.

Messages that I keep getting? They are like spam or some bull**** and are pissing me off. They show up in the notification bar that I have credit cards to be claimed college grants to get. Plus I keep getting links for apps and crap on my home screen. This crap started this week and I haven't installed anything lately. I am running a stock rooted S4 with the total update and an ad blocker. I would appreciate any help at all this **** is annoying me. Thanks rant is over lol
Its probably one of your apps...many free apps have the ability to spam your status bar with ads...and ad blocker doesn't block all ads. Try disabling or uninstalling apps until you find the culprit

Try airpush detector. It should find the app that is causing the problem.
It worked great on my phone but my not on my dad's. My nephews downloaded a bunch of games on his phone and one or two of then were causing the problem. I just uninstalled them all and the problem went away.
Try updating your ad blocker.

Air push detector will definitely help find the app that is causing this. I had the same problem before as well.

Hi guys,

Thank you

Hi everyone,
I was trying to get my i9500 rooted.
Successfully done.
SU is there, Titanium Backup works etc.
But, the Adaway did not do his job. I still receive the Ad messages on my notification bar!
The Adaway is working great on my Note 10.1, S2 and S3 but in S4 is looking like no working.
Also, the Root Uninstaller have a strange behavior: is uninstalling the app but the message come as the app was not successfully uninstalled!
I am the only one having this issues? I did not rooted properly the S4?
I have trying different types of rooting. The same issue.
Any advice?
Thank you all

I agree with this. It will be a pain in the butt to test this, but try freezing or uninstalling everything. (Make a titanium backup of all your apps first, then uninstall them all)
Then resintall them in groups of like 5 or 10 at a time. Wait however long it usually is between these Chinese messages to restore the next group. I'll bet you see the messages stop when you uninstall everything, then see them return only after restoring the block of apps that contain the one that's letting messages through.
For this experiment, freezing should work just as well as uninstalling. Might be easier that way.
Or do it the other way and freeze blocks of 10 at a time to see what makes the messages stop.
Once you identify the block of 10 that contains the 1 bad one, repeat the experiment 1 app at a time within thsoe 10.
You can also take educated guesses on which of your apps are the most likely to be the bad apple. Titanium and ROM Manager and other popular apps that everyone else is using with no problem probably aren't your bad app. I'd start with the more obscure ones you have. Also check the feedback on teh Play store of your more obscure apps. See if other people are making the same complaints you have about one of your apps. (That only works though if the app has some level of popularity. If it's got 12 downloads you're unlikely to have anyone leaving feedback on it)
I do agree with all of you.
The messages are coming form a app or game! Thrue!
But how do you explain that, all other my devices, Note 10.1, Galaxy Pad 10.1, S2 and S3 have the same App and games instaled does not have any problem and only S4 have?
Non of the others, after installing AdAway, have no f...ing Chinese messages, and the S4 have?
Same App same games.....
My S4, I9500, is on stock 4.3 room with Perseus kernel.

Adaway has nothing to do with ad notifications, only with ad banners. Once I saw an app that can detect and block that notifications but I don't remember its name. Maybe you can search in gplay...

Ok, but this did not explain why all other devices with same app, games I dont have, after installing adaway are stopping the Chinese messages and the S4 not!
May the adaway block the notifications also, because is blocking the access to add sites...

Maybe that messages are programmed to be shown only in a S4 device (for example advising any weather app) and but in other models... there are a lot of possible explanations to that...

Yesterday I uninstall the AdAway from all other devices.
Immediately, the messages in notification bar started to come.
I reinstall it again and the messages stoped.
Meaning that the messages there are not only for S4!

Hold click on the chinese notification then choose app info and simply remove this app

There was an update to the Chrome Beta app today bringing it up to version 37.0.2062.39. It seems like a pretty large update including new features and a redesigned, more material like, UI. It also seem to move much speedier than the last update did. Check out the Play Store for more info. :good:
Hi all, I have a problem with Chrome. I've tried regular and beta version. I'm using galaxy s5 and whenever I open the browser for the first time I get the message: Unable to access the network, but once I refresh the page it loads everything as it should. How do I fix it without having to constantly keep chrome in the RAM. Thanks

Are you using an ad blocker? That is a known issue using them. Only way around it is to disable blocker.

Hi guys
Just installed the MM update for my Note 4. Didn't notice any difference at first, then discovered that Allcast no longer streams to my Xbox DLNA, and also now in the gallery whenever you click on a video it gives you the choice of apps to open it with ONCE then automatically sets that as the default, so if I want to open a video in a different player I now have to go into app manager and clear the defaults. Then I can open with the app I want. But that gets set as default too so it never ends.
This is really REALLY annoying.
Please does anyone know of a fix around this?
Many thanks.

Indeed a very annoying update all around!
No fix, but an app called 'Better open with'.

+1 for this, been using it for years: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aboutmycode.betteropenwith
Basically you set it as the default app for opening a particular file type or link, and then within this app you can choose which other apps are allowed to open said files or links. You can also have a countdown to open with a default choice, giving you a few seconds to choose an alternative.
Been meaning to ask this since I upgraded to MM, always thought that this was a stupid MM feature, but now I see this is a bug right?
Thanks to that app anyway, don't like unnecessary apps, but still better than annoyance caused by waste of time.
It's not a bug, it's a further stupidity from Samsung. You can find this so called feature nobody wants on other devices as well (Note 5 and S7).
Thanks guys. Will try that app out.
This is without doubt the worst software update yet, so much to complain about!
