How do i get rid of these star ads?

Welcome to the forum. I'm sure it's an app doing it. Have you downloaded any new apps lately? About the time the ads started? There is an app for finding out what app is causing the ads, but i can't remember what it's called. Maybe someone will help me out. Whenever thus has happened to me I've known what app was responsible because it was the only one installed recently

Those would be airpush ads. Download airpush detector from the Google play store, it will tell you what is doing this.

If anyone tries to detect these airpush ad with Airpush Detector and it doesn't find anything, go to Airpush Finder. I knew exactly which app was sending me these ads. I decided to test the waters. I downloaded Airpush Detector, it failed to find any apps that send push ads. I downloaded Airpush Finder, it found the exact app that I thought was giving me the issue. I removed that app and haven't had any issues! These forums are amazing. Definitely my go-to when having an phone issue.
