Go to the Running Services settings and whats running. Then go and uninstall the app.

Its an ad technique that is gaining in popularity and is coming from one of your less than reputable apps you have installed.
If you can't find it in your running services, try checking out the reviews of your top suspects... others may have found it and already be *****ing about it.

Has a pretty nice zoom feature and the option to use either a 1 or 5 minute check interval.
This is a screen shot of only tetherWiFi running. Looks like I get about and hour and a half before the battery goes dead. Time to hook up the usb lol
I installed this few hours ago and now a update aviable pops up already, is it a paid app or not?
nah it's still free, it used to force close when you started it on while hooked to usb. this update appears to have fixed that.

As you can see on my Samsung G Note, my Samsung Apps/ S Choice appear to have a blank page, i can't view apps on the page and apps like ZenBrush that was advertised to appear on phone does not appear on my phone. Eg: http://www.samsung.com/global/microsite/galaxynote/note/applications.html?type=find
Can anyone help me with this problem. I need some S-Pen apps for my GNote.
bump! Please help me.
Don't panic. Currently www.samsungapps.com is having issues, hence it is blank. Nothing wrong with the phone. So chill !!!
It needs a Wifi or 3G connection to work and show the Apps..Just like Android market
which i did have and still the page is empty. I've been trying on samsungapps to no avail since i've bought the phone back in 26th Dec and youre telling me http://www.samsungapps.com/ is having issues for that long? anyone have any other solution?
Seriosly no one?
Bump, so everyone can see and please help me.

I've tried deleting my google account and resyncing everything but it's still there.
There are some SW available, which shows caller info on incoming/outgoing call.
Have installed any stuff like this?
Goto Settings > Call > Phone Number Locator and turn off Enable PNL
Seems to be something setup for Chinese Note users that doesn't work anywhere else!
Thank you! This is a weird feature, never realized there was something like this even with my old phones. It was extremely irritating to see that text
Yes, only had it since upgraded to ICS. Fun to find new things isn't it
Glad to have helped!

Random Notification Sounds From Note8

I have been dealing with this sound for weeks and can't seem to find the culprit. I've gone as far as reading the logs but still don't know how to read this ****. what I found is that it seems to be some ad that refreshes every 7000 milliseconds and causes it. I have edge glow turned on so when it triggers, it shows a glow but just a square icon and no actual notification. I took a screenshot from logcat but not rooted so can't see system logs.

This is the best I can find and it won't tell me the app that's causing it. From my incompetence, it looks like it's a system log. I have my gear connected but it's not sending a notification there.
UPDATE: Booted into safe mode and still have the notification sounds. Has to be from default app now. Going to test without bluetooth and see if it's the gear causing the issue.
Another screenshot from logs. Still not sure what I'm looking at, may just say screw it and factory reset, but thats ALOT of work.https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/359090202465271809/417753086061183016/SmartSelectImage_2018-02-26-12-41-08.jpg
