Boot to save mode
Go to settings and click on security
Select device administrator
Uncheck any strange apps there
Now go to apps from the settings and uninstall any unfamiliar spirits sorry apps reboot your device and that's all. wink

Restart your device when it shows the makers logo when booting press and hold the volume down key until you see the save mode at the left side of your screen if this does not work reboot again but this time press and hold the home key. One of these two should work.

Hunt down the app causing it. Then uninstall it
It's what you get for downloading "free" apps grin grin grin

Off your phone, then press the power button and the Up key... Pres both untill you see the android icon, then use the down button to navigate to follow on the instructions the guy gave.
(Samsung,- press up, power and menu key, then leave to load)

You have to prepare a big sacrifice and carry it to MTN main office at Victoria island around 1 pm

That is all

U have certainly installed a junky app that pops up these ads...You should either uninstall these apps.You can also install some third party apps that blocks these unwanted ads like ads away,but these requires root.

You download an app that comes with free ad, or if it came with the phone like that, download another launcher, or better yet can you give the specification of your phone

Is it ads that show on apps even when you are offline or those who you when browsing?
Re: How Do I Stop Unwanted Ads Showing On My Phone Always by davodyguy: 7:26am On Nov 06, 2017
Stop downloading free apps then. Paid apps have less adverts. The free apps actually make money from the ads that pops up on your phone.

Your phone must have been infected by an adware, it's a pain in the ass. Download Malwarebytes from playstore and scan ur phone. It works like a charm.

if your phone is marshmellow upward. Go to xda forum or adaway site and download the latest app.


N:B some app doesn't use google server for ads, so you have to filter them manually.

What is the maker and android version of your phone?

Note: the previous procedures works only for 5.0 upward lower versions can only flash to solve this problem.
