Spam in the notification bar? ('+' WINNER)

[Steed77]

Anyone getting this? I already deleted it so I cant take a screen shot. Basically it comes up something like "+ Winner, you've been chosen to be the WINNER of an iPad..."

Why am i getting this and how do i stop it?

Oh yea, and does anyone know when NFL MOBILE is actually going to work? It'll probably fix after the season, LOL!;

Othr than that, loving this phone!!!


Thanks for the help!

I have that notification too. Mine is from an app called mp3 music download.

Do you have Light Flow installed? I never got this until i installed that app. Or it may be a different app that i have, I'll have to research more...

I have Light Flow installed but have not received any Spam notification.

Yea, I don't think it is Light Flow at this point. Thanks! Hmm...

Get Rid Of Spam And Ads In Your Android Notification Bar

This article tells you how to get rid of it. There is an app that detects which apps use the notification bar for ads so that you can uninstall them.

If you're rooted, AdFree would probably get rid of it too

Yes that app spams for sure. Ad free won't stop it either

I was getting them on my Bionic and figured out it was coming from a GoLauncher 3rd party theme. I used an app called Addons Detector to find the culprit. AirPush Detector also does the job.
