I'd disable the Email app, but there were frequent popups telling me is crashes. So I just leave it enabled instead. Also I am aware what the Wireless Emergency Alerts is supposed to be about. It's not illegal per se to disable it, is it?lol
Well guys, you're free to add on to this list if you got anything else. STOP THE BLOATWARE INVASION!

Awesome... Now others can add their suggestions and we can keep the OP updated as we go.
Wireless emergency app will let you disable the Amber alerts, so you can keep the severe weather alerts going.
We might find a dev that is familiar with Verizon bloat and they may be able to help figure out what apps are and do, and what is safe to remove.

How to do this? pm command through adb? Or any app can help?

It is kind of weird since you can't do it through the launcher. Go to settings > application manager. Then swipe over to all to view all installed and system apps. Select them individually and disable them.

[Q] Android: SPAM (Star in the Status-Bar)

Hi,
I use Greyblur and I am anoyed by the fact that I get different times a notification for some unwanted ads (not sure if this is Greyblur or any other app).
There is a star in the Status Bar and if you press on the information the browser opens with some unwanted recommendations (I call it SPAM).
So can anybody help to fix this.
Is this a regular Android function (e.g. a interface which every app can use)?
Where I should look to disable this function?
Thanks in advance.
It's not greyblur you must of installed a bad app. Review where you got your apps and be more careful.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
O.k., thanks.
But is there a way to track this application down?
What would be the procedure to do this; it's impossible to deinstall all apps...
Recomendations for what exactly? Is it Kongregade or app brain or pulse?
If you have time I'd say do this.
Back up with titanium backup
SBF back to stock
Install each app one by one
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Before reinstalling one by one, post an appbrain link so i can see what apps you have installed. I can then report back what apps to get rid of before just wiping everything.
there is an app called Share My Apps that will create a list for you of all the apps you have installed. much easier to post than to list them all manually
Hey...,
Many thanks for this input - which is exactly what I wanted.
So you believe it could be one of this apps: Kongregade, App brain or Pulse.
Yes, I use Pulse and App Brain.
After thinking over about the best way, I had an thought...
Would it be possible to freeze selected apps with TITANIUM, to see if the SPAM disappears?
Or would'nt this be a realistic way to check if one of the mentioned apps are causing this behaviour...
Really, to uninstall makes me crazy as you can see the list is long (needs at least 1/2-1 hour to reinstall - without a real guarantee not to reinstall the "bad boy" again...).
And many thanks in advance for going roughly through the app list.

Kongregate appbrain and pulse are all fine apps, but will all recomend new updates in your notification bar, you can change this in settings. In the op you said, ads for unwanted recomendations. I was, and still am unsure if you are refering to irelevant product advertising like a commercial, or if your being recommended flash games because you told Kongregate to notify you of new games (or a similar notification from a dif app). There is a malicious advertising plug in called "airpush" that devs could put in apps to advertise in your notification bar, it has caused a backlash against devs that use it. As far as freezing to test, yes you can, but be careful what you freeze and for this testing purpose maybe one at a time is the best way to tell what app is notifying you.
I will list the apps below that I know are not infected with airpush, all of these apps I use or have used before and they do not have airpush:

Hope that helps. Maybe others can add to the list of safe apps.
I had it happen when I used the android movie download app. It was useless and spammed thee hell out of me.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Thanks for your response.
To be more clear: it is not ONLY product related or update recommendations.
They spam me with commercials from different areas.
But maybe I'll have an eye on it to see what they offer, maybe this is an way to identify the app and make it public + ban.
It would be good to have a public black list...
And last but not least: I was searching, but Airpush (at least what I can see in the market) is not installed. So it's not this app...
Best regards and thanks.
I also had been spammed by the app "Live wallpaper LED" bu DrHU. beware of this app
try scanning your phone with AirPush
it won't block whatever is causing it but it'll identify which app is the culprit and let you uninstall it.
Addons Detector is like that airpush app on steroids... bit more functionality.
Once installed, run a scan. Then choose the bottom filtering option to see who's using airpush.

I had this exact same thing. A little star on the notifcation bar saying I won an Ipad2, and then redirected me to a spam website.
In my case it was actually caused by a Final Fantasy 13 guide app.
I reported the app, deleted it, and it looks like google pulled it from the marketplace.

Addons Detector flagged Zarley for push notification adds.. its never spammed my notif bar ever and it definately doesn't contain the Airpush "virus".
Airpush (which advertises here on xda) offers this type of ad. I can't tell you if its them or not, but check out airpush.com for info on their permanent opt-out feature. I was intrigued by their revenue claims until I saw their methods.

I had the same issue and installed Addons Detector and it found 4 apps using different push notifications. I uninstalled all 4 apps and no pop-ups so far. Thanks
Hey,
I was spammed by Awesome Wallpaper app that way
i noticed you use go launcher. I have noticed that some of the free themes have had airpush built in to them. you might try and use another theme and delete the ones you currently have. This worked for me.

My top picks:
Xposed
Terminal Emulator
Helium
IpTables
Desktop to Phone Data Transfer (install on phone and chrome as an extension; allows you to copy and paste things back and forth between devices). Has ads so use adaway or whatever.
App Dialer (T9 Search, I put the widget on my home screen, I haven't accessed my app drawer since, I rarely buy apps, but I ended up buying pro because I loved it so much). Go in settings to switch from QWERTY to T9. Even if you don't remember the app's name and remember a part of it, it'll give it to you as a result. For example typing in Games will give you the "Play Games" app as a result too)
Waze (better than Maps since it lets me know if cops are around, finds quicker routes by taking small roads that Maps overlooks)
Buttons Remapper (I like hardware buttons and I like changing what they do rather than default, changes actions based on short press, long press, double tap)
Web Video Caster (chromecast any video from any site)
Friendly (Facebook + Messenger in one app, and it is really small in size with ad block features, and fewer privacy concerns)
Es file manager
Apex luncher
Spotify and Netflix must be on my phone at all cost
Fx File explorer
KLWP
NOVA launcher
Titanium Backup
QuickPic
Without these i can't even use my android
Gmail, Linkedin, YouTube.
PlusPrivacy
The best app in my mobile is PlusePrivacy because is a free app who provides me a unified dashboard for protecting myself from a variety of threats to my privacy. It enable me to control the privacy settings in my social network accounts, hide my email identity, block ads, trackers and malware and prevent unwanted apps and browser extensions from tracking me and collecting me private data.
It's a great app!!! I recommend it!!!!:
Adhell 3
iGO
JuiceSSH
Solid File Manager
Waze
Nova launcher, bk disabler pro, system ui tunner, battery+, netflix, zooper widget pro, mx player, A.I. type pro, led manager, macrodroid, adguard, whatsap, gravity screen, screen adjuster, power amp

Guide to settings stock to increase privacy/Secuirty? Which apps to disable?

I'm keeping my phone on stock for the time being because I don't want to void my warranty in case there's something wrong.
The apps I've bolded I'm guessing can be disabled, or removed by this method https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/ . I'm wondering though when it tells you not available for current user, does that mean the app can still run in the background somehow?

Lol. Well, since $130 is nothing to you, then I'm sure you'll be happy to send me a replacement phone if there's a problem with this one.
Did u ever find the problem? Mine has the same thing, but I'm thinking mine is hacked as I know nothing about phones. But I do want my privacy since I am a grown woman. It's crazy I try to uninstall it and it just goes right back on. I also bought another phone in my friends name and when I get home it starts moving and downloading all this stuff and it wasn't even set up with play store yet. It's to the point I'm going to just smash it. But $1000 is too much to just throw down the drain. Please if anyone knows what could be wrong please let me know. Thanks in advance.

I like Samsung browser night mode.....turns the whole page black with white text, pictures and videos unaffected.
I also love swift installer which gives a dark theme for system, notifications etc, and also for all the Google apps (gmail, calendar, contacts, Google voice search, drive, YouTube etc). and themes many third party apps also. doesn't require root, much easier to user than substratum...a must-have if you like turning everything dark imo*
* do remove Samsung/ other themes and restore the original Samsung theme before you use swift installer. remove all swift overlays before any system update to avoid boot loop. leave usb debug turned on to give you an option to recover in case you forget to remove swift installer overlays before a system update. don't plug your phone into random untrusted computers or charging stations for charging while usb debug is on since you are more vulnerable to attacks.
