Remember guys, this is why we don't pay for the apps.
This is the app called Franco Kernel Manager, one of the best kernel managers that are out there... Even when it was outdated (which I think that's the cause it got booted from the PlayStore?).
I used it to check the process of my phone and monitor the active and idle drain mostly, I paid for it a long time ago, but now it just fails to check the licence and it doesn't let me use it fully... I think there must be a cracked APK over there...
EDIT:
Fortunately the app is back in the store and hopefully that update version comes soon enough!
Looks like the luckypatcher.com and .info are both terribly spammy. Even with pureapk the download ended up being something called bluejay. Of course the play store chimed in and said installing it would be a horrible idea. I assume I just picked 3 fake sites to download from
Luckypatchers.com is the real one.
Also you should avoid pureapk, it has malware.
I recommend sticking to apkmirror if the application is available there.
The warnings pop up and hitting proceed shows scammy fake virus scans and such. To make it clear, it's not luckypatchers itself, but the dodgy full screen ads on load.
Is your Ublock Origins & lists updated fully and configured right? Because Ublock Origins is supposed to be blocking the malvertisements from being shown at all.
At least it does for me on Firefox-nightly & Mull.
Yep, all up to date. UBO gives me the option to proceed (= show) the dodgy ads. Maybe something to do with my settings that it doesn't block those outright. It's a useful option for when I'm using cashback sites that I can temporarily grant tracking links.
It’s nothing with file, it’s just a website ads takeover whole site it’s send to virus site. Like I’m on iPhone it’s asking me to download something for speed up etc.
Lucky Patcher is Android only.
Also, you should really consider getting an adblocker because the entire web is covered with malvertisements.
Even YouTube has scam ads & malvertisements.
Accessing that from my phone shows the actual site content for about 3 seconds and then an endless array of "popup and notification blocked messages" as well as the usual combination of "oh noes your PC has three dangerous viruses click here to resolve" type redirects.
Is this just a cunning way to weed out the normies or can I expect the same kind of thing from their allegedly-excellent app? Because they're not leaving a good impression right now.
The app is adfree and not spammy. Can't talk about the Website though, I haven't browsed the internet without good content blockers for the last decade
Chrome mobile put up a pretty good fight. I have been meaning to put Firefox + ublock on my phone, maybe I'll stop being slack and finally do it today.
