PLEASE HELP!!! My Phone Is Randomly Suggesting New Apps. by sleekyjay(op): 9:33pm On Nov 06, 2015

pls my phone keeps absurdly suggesting I download random apps...
it happens almost regularly and uses whatever app I am on that period as what's suggesting the download..
e.g
I might be on Whatsapp, and a box will pop up telling me Whatsapp is suggesting a new app..

I might be on MX player, and a box will pop up telling me mx player is suggesting a new app..

I already flashed the phone and restored to factory reset, yet problem persists.
any help will be appreciated..

It happened to me exactly. It's a malware issue.
Just go to your installed apps. Look for an app called 'forpda' uninstall it. That's all.

I couldn't locate any app with that name. buh am thinking it should have gone off since I already restored to factory reset...
