Mobogenie_1501.apk downloads by itself

lucalunardi · Dec 10, 2013

So, after almost a month I got this freaking annoying app showing up again. I swear I would set mobogenie servers on fire. For now all I can and am going to do is to make sure nobody near me will ever install any app from them. Course you mobogenie!

I agree and already did that.

Suggestion:

Copy and paste the coment below on the mobogenie app store. ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobogenie.markets )

Dear mobogenie team.

We users are really annoyed by your move of pushing your Mobogenie_1501.apk to our phones without our explicit consent. Using this as advertise is really backfiring on you. Please reconsider you advertising policy and fix this ASAP. Check XDA thread (showthread.php?t=2523379) for more info.

Thanks.

I have it as well. In my case I didn't install it. It is though still trying to download itself.

I do know it is being "pushed" from

"http://upload.voga360.com/mu/android/release/10/1_0_4/mobogenie_1541.apk"

I suspect it is stuck in the browser cache. I suspect it was a false download link on the page linked to the googlemail 4.7 apk download link.

I am glad I didn't install this.

I hate ads.

I think its because they promoted their product by monetize it

I think some of their partner spam it coz they monetized it and that makes them downloading automatically like the virus adware in PC they display adware to earn money..

But their products are safe I use it still now. I dont get some malwares in it, and they have some free paid apps.but i had some problems .when i download something i noticed that my PC runs slow and slow internet connection...

But we have to install it first before we can give 1 star and put review, no?

I too just got this, i was browsing rule34 ( yeah yeah, id rather be honest in where it originated) I was on chrome on my evo4g lte, and after clicking a link to the next page it popped up a page in chrome, and immediately opened the factory internet browser and downloaded com.mobogenie_b38e33edd93c7c2a78c37403b176b249_e2c4w2c4b4v203.apk the file says it originated from mmtrkar.com however when I go there its a blank page, when I use the about me function from i forget where, it says the website is blocking bots and it cannon retrieve any info, so I goto figure out who owns it and its a little fishy that it was recently registered on Nov 20th 2013. http://whois.domaintools.com/mmtrkar.com

Just click on the Download button on the Play Store. As soon as it begins downloading, stop it. (no need to download and install it)

Once you do this, you can rate their app.

l have been experiencing this too. Annoying redirections that prompt to the download or worse, pop ups That no matter what I click Keep on trying to download it. For more Info, pop up header says "ads.blueads.com".

Maybe there is a way to block it using hosts file?

Ah, this makes a lot of sense. That's why I haven't seen it lately - recently changed my user agent in dolphin to desktop and never got around to changing it back.

Changed back and it's happening again...... bleh.

pacorola · Dec 21, 2013

hosts file edit solves it

It's definitively an ad problem, so I installed adaway (needs root) and... Voliá! No more annoyance, tested on ps disasters.com (there I would always be redirected) and other sites. Bottomline, now I'm 2 full days clean of mobogenie ad-crap and counting!

I have reported the app on google play, explaining on the the objection field.
Its ridiculous, I had 4 copies of this apk on my download folder.

After some testing it looks like it's in some way linked to AdSense. After disabling it the popups stoped.

Can someone who have a website with adsense and this download prompt verify this?

It happen to me sometimes, i think there are some ad on some website which ask for downloading it. Chrome always ask me if i want to download it, i deny.

wicked1683 · Dec 29, 2013

This is happening on both stock and chrome browser.. Why cant we do anything about this if not rooted and install adaway? Is google aware of this and not doing anything about this?

Weird, this is happening in how many months now... And no official solution to block this addware?
