Try uninstalling those system apps that looks suspicious, they may be the ones giving those ads. If not, try factory resetting or flashing stock rom

What are your thoughts? Has your market updated yet?
It look nice, but it has hidden one important feature from me: The ability to set whether apps auto-update or not!! Anyone know a way around this?
not yet.....
i keep checking it every 20 mins....

Is this 2.2.6 or 2.2.7?

Not sure. The application manager says it's version 2002207. So... 2.2.7?
I didn't receive it, but after clearing the app cache I got it directly

Press on "My apps" and then the app you want to change settings for. Then deselect "Allow automatic updating" in the beginning of the white area.
I meant how to stop the market from auto-updating.
Edit: When I first got that update, the option to stop individual apps from auto-updating was missing. In a recent update it has returned, however.
But I still want the market to stop updating silently in the background. I'd rather it let me know than "SURPRISE! The market has updated against your will! So much for an open platform!"

If you want, you can opt out of those ads (there is a link in the notification bar when you get one). Then you can keep those apps or install others without having to worry about being bothered

[Q] Does anyone know what's the cause of this?

Hi all, I don't know where these push notifications are coming from. But they pop up every day. Anyone know what company and/or program these are?

Ionno Wtf that is..
But, You can usually reply stop to have them stop.
Goto the market and get airpush detector and run it when you see that notice. It will show you the app associated with it so you can remove it.

You've installed an ad supported app. Install Addons Detector from the app store, leave it to monitor until you get another offending notification, for look through the list of notifications in Addons Detector and it will tell you what app caused it.

If you read the error and take some time to think about it then you will know what is wrong. I states it right there. Not plainly but its still there. I challenge you to find it. I will check back in tomorrow morning. If you have not found at least the base cause then I will tell you but here at XDA we would rather help people do things on their own before opening a thread.
I will give you a hint. Its not a fix you can really do anything about short of the above.

I found out that the error was coming up due to wrong certificates so I went over here and downloaded some certificates. But they were not installing on my phone, so I gave up. Then I read somwhere that using Adaway will fix it. Finallly I downloaded adaway and IT WORKED for me.!! (after 4 hrs of frustation). But I would still like to hear know how you fixed the error.

Strange Notification error

Hi there people of XDA
So I asked about this error over in a device forum here and no one knew really what was wrong and I figured it was just the phone but now I have a new one and it's still doing it :\
Anyway what is happening is this when an app needs an update and the play store shows the notification at the top of the screen it doesn't say the apps name it says something along the lines of amp&_ and a few more random characters instead of the name but when you toggle down the notification bar everything is displayed normally.
This happened on my old Xperia Play running ICS and JB ROMS and now I have an HTC Sensation with a custom jelly bean ROM and it's happening on that swell :\
Just want to know if anyone knows why this is happening
I hope this isn't frowned apon but I managed to get a screen shot as I said this happened on 2 phones so I'm honestly stumpted

Did you tap on the notification to see what it was?

as soon as you pull down the notification bar it's displayed normally. it's when it first pops up this happens. this hppens for every app that needs an update when the notification pops up
