Spam from notification screen & removing Apps

usuckbest · ‎01-27-2012

I get a this spam symbol + in my notification screen on my Thunderbolt. How can I stop it?

Also, is there a way to remove pre installed apps? w/out rooting the phone?

Thanks

Spam in the notification window is tied to application. Did you install any recently?

And it would be a NO on removing the pre-installed applications.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Ann is correct about a bad app but the issue is that this has been coming from some Market apps, Free Mp3 Downloader has been one of the bad apps that has been identified...

Try installing AirPush Detector from https://market.android.com/details?id=com.brosmike.airpushdetector&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGws... it should detect the app and you can uninstall it.

Have a phone you love? Get up to $500 when you switch and bring your phone.
