Hello, I own a Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 and I have a big problem with it. Ads can pop up at any moment when I'm using my phone, and this has been happening for less than a week. Earlier, I had an ad open on Clash Royale, which is a game without ads, at the moment I'm talking my Chrome app opened to watch an ad even. Even with all my apps closed, an ad pops up like that. What’s strange is that it happens on any app, even while I'm drafting my texts or navigating the home menu. Anyway, I hope this issue is due to the recent Samsung update on my smartphone. I kindly ask for your help to resolve this problem, please.

Ads keep popping up by themselves!? : CCM

Good evening, Samsung S7

Problem solved easily. When the ad appears, press the button at the bottom left (the one that offers to close applications or choose an already open application). The ad has a small green icon at the top left of the ad frame. Press the green icon, and the icon of the application that shows ads will appear. The culprit is unmasked; I kept the app but removed all access permissions. Go to Settings, then Applications, and select the appropriate application to either delete it or impose restrictions.

I no longer have intrusive ads or bubbles that kept appearing continuously.
Good luck to all the others struggling; I hope this helps you.

Hi everyone,
I presented the same issue and it turns out that a blue light filter app was responsible!!
Thanks a lot for the tip ;)
See you!

LiYa

Me too. I made a list of all my apps on a piece of paper and uninstalled everything at once. Then I reinstalled one by one each of my really important apps (so I didn't reinstall apps that I suspected or that I didn't find essential). NO MORE ADS!!

So it was indeed an app that was responsible for the intrusive ads.

However, I was lazy; the ideal would have been to delete the apps one by one and restart the phone after each uninstallation. That would have made it possible to identify the responsible app without necessarily going through all the uninstalls.

Hello

You have what is called a nice pop-up, so to do this, you go to your system applications and inside, you have a module that is not listed in the system (suspicious), so if you find it, you uninstall it; at best, you delete it.

-Is your device rooted?

Thanks for the reply, I've solved the problem; it actually came from a music downloading app. I deleted it, and now no more ads, phew!

Thibtib

Thank you, it helped me too.

I have the exact same issue as well, except that I have the Sony Xperia 1, and I think it's because I downloaded too many games because I've had the music app for a long time and there weren't any ads, but I don't know what the trigger element for the ads is, and today, there were some really inappropriate ads (nude women and men...).

JoceBenTann

How can you tell if an application is malicious? Web pages open on their own, without me even touching my phone. Most of the time, they're sex ads. My McAfee doesn't see anything, Malwarebytes doesn't see anything either, and when I do a device maintenance check, there's nothing. What should I do???

Elo

I have this problem too! It's starting to annoy me every minute to have an ad pop up wherever I am on my Samsung S8, please can someone help me?

I had the same problem with my J7 Prime, and I found a weird app installed without a logo among the system apps (see photo). After uninstalling it, the ads disappeared.

fayssalboss

Exactly, when you're lucky the app is in this form but when it's because of a game, it's harder to see.

Yes yes! I had the same problem and I found the solution thanks to your help. A big thank you

Thank you, I hadn't paid attention to those nameless apps, I had 2 installed, really shit. Ads constantly while you play, in SMS, on the web, etc... All the time. Thank you.

Hi. Personally, I uninstalled several apps and the problem went away. I'm going to reinstall the apps one by one to isolate the culprit, but I'm leaning towards the free version of Deezer.

bikoul

Deezer in terms of ads is when you use it not at any time.

Bisker

Same for me, ads appear at all times. I've reinstalled it twice and deleted my Facebook account twice; I've had fewer issues.
I think, unless I'm mistaken, that Facebook
has a responsibility for the appearance of these ads?!

Same here... ads popping up at any moment, whether I want to send a text, take a photo, or just look at something on my phone. I'm about to throw it across the room! Have you managed to get rid of this pest??? Help, I can't take it anymore! I have a Samsung J7.

Sabine94420

Look at my post above, it should get rid of your ads..
Press the button at the bottom left of your phone (to the left of the central button) when the ad appears. An application window will open. Click on the small icon at the top left of the application, it starts as a small green head and then the application logo will appear. All you have to do is go to your settings to delete the app or put restrictions on it....

Lulu02

Great, thank you for your clear explanations... so I deleted the app, it was a sports app. Grrrrr
I've been struggling with this thing for weeks.
A big thank you to you.

DoubleKev

Hello, I have exactly the same problem, except that the app that sends the ads does not exist on my phone... it's a "camera" app that I never downloaded and I can't find it by searching through my phone's settings (same when I type its name in the search bar... no results). If anyone can help me, a big thanks to them!

Moussa94500 Posted messages 2 Status Member

Doublekev, hello, check the message above from fayssalle, it helped me. Nameless apps are installed, you can notice them by going to settings and then notifications, there will be some without names, click on them and uninstall. Boom, no more problems.

Kathy

Hello :) I don’t have any suspicious “drawing void” app, but the ad that always pops up is WhatsApp.

LiYa

Hello,

I also had some pop-up windows. When I clicked on them, I noticed that it was Google Chrome opening the pages, even though I generally don't use that browser.

So I just disabled the app by long-pressing the icon from my list of all applications, and I don't have anything anymore.

I hope this helps you.

I also have this problem and it's Chrome that is responsible for these ads. I've therefore disabled Chrome but the ads keep coming and it still indicates that it's Google Chrome that is sending them to me. This issue started yesterday for a reason I'm unaware of. What should I do, please?

Well, it was good Gmail. So in the Gmail settings, you need to uncheck "personalized ads."

vincent

And where do you find "personalized ads" in Gmail please? I couldn't find it.

Answer 8 / 9

vincent

same problem. I disabled the PEARO app. For now, no more annoying popup ads, the issue seems to be fixed. Fingers crossed.

vincent

Merdum, it's back!!! I'm disabling SHELL. To be continued...

Robin_fndz Posted messages 1 Status Member

Did you find a solution? I have the same problem, it's Shell and Pearo who are spamming me, and even disabling them doesn't work.
