Hi,
I would like to know if showing ads on exit of an app against Google Play Policy?

I had Getjar installed on my Elocity when I bought it. If I click on the Getjar icon, I get taken to a page on the Internet that no longer exists. How can I change Getjar so that when I click on it, I will get taken to the Getjar site on the Internet. Is Getjar an okay app, or is there a better one? (I don't believe I can delete the Getjar app from this Elocity A7.)
Also, would anyone know a good, free, weasther app that I could download that would show the weather (in my vicinity) on the Home screen (background) , similar to the time that appears there now?
amazon, google android market
use this to get android market working http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431967
after you root the device you can install the amazon app store and buy the root explorer if you don't get it through other means. it's a useful app, buy it. you can find the getjar program in /system/app, where you drop off the google apps. be careful when you remove the default apps, try to force stop them before uninstalling. 2 of them can't be stopped(one is fring and i can't remember the other, i think it had a light blue icon) and after they are uninstalled will give an error that will keep popping up, just hard reset and continue.
for the weather app, just search 'weather widget' in either app store. keep in mind that app will be a battery drain.

Thank you. Sorry, but I am new at all of this (tablets, etc.) and don't know what you mean by "root," "drop off," "default apps," "force stop," "error popping up," etc. Really confusing and I do not want to make my grandson's A7 unstable, etc.
Anybody getting popup ads in notification area?!?!?!?
I suspect its samsung push service but don't want to break anything.
Pretty sure its not one of the other apps I've installed, as I've used most of them before, no popup ads lol
probably from a recent app you've installed. try installing airpush detector from the google play store to see which app sends you ads
Is there an option or setting in chrome or 4.2.2 that can turn off the popup and allow you to view the play store using chrome? Right now if you click a link going to a page on the play store, a popup displaying your browser and play store apps asking which to open it with. The final option is "always" or "just once", but it only works on the specific link and not the entire domain.
I would like to use the play store from my browser since it appears there are more options available, more info on apps, more search/device options and you can see ALL the apps, not just the ones for your device. I am sure there may be tricks to do these things and more in the play store, but it would be much simpler to just be able to view it with chrome without that darned popup at each link.
Hopefully it is just something simple I am overlooking. Thanks for any help on this one!
Maybe if you clear deafaults on Google Play, it will stop asking which app to use? Installed a couple games through Chrome (on Galaxy Nexus) without getting any popup asking which app to use.
No idea when or how but my wifes phone all of a sudden has pop up ads or suggestions or games that direct it to the play store. She said it was after and update. We have uninstalled all games and have most basic things installed. Driving her which in turn driving me crazy. Any ideas?

If it's a notification she's getting, long press it and it will tell you what app it's coming from.

It disappears when she tries to do anything other than going to play store

There is an app in the play store called air push detector, apparently air push is in some cut-rate games to get ad revenue this basically tells you what app has the annoying ads
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brosmike.airpushdetector&hl=en
then un install the app it says has airpush.

the only thing that works for me is to disable the download manager app but then no other app can be downloaded or updated. it's frustrating.
