Prevention Information Warning (Brand New Note3)

[SeauxCrazy]

Ok yall, so I haven't installed anything on my phone yet (just got it today), just let the phone run all the app updates that come with the phone. I keep getting the Prevention Information Warning on every restart.

"An application has been forced to stop for an unauthorised attempt to access system in your device. It may be solved by the policy update service."

I've searched this but have not come across someone with a non-rooted brand new phone phone with these issues. What do do next?

Getting similar message every several hours on my note 3, non-rooted stock...

Getting this message as well. I've had this phone since launch, messages just started yesterday. Only app I've installed is bit strips.

I'm wondering if this was done by some sort of backdoor update in an app from Samsung. Seems I only get it when my phone connects to a wifi router

Was getting it for 2 days every several hours but seems stopped today. Having phone since Oct 2nd, started 3 days ago

I was getting the same messages. I had to freeze all the five Knox apps using titanium backup, reboot the phone, install titanium restore fixer app, and use titanium fixer every time I restored an app or data using titanium backup. This solved it for me.

Just a contrasting data point: I've had my N3 for a week, stock unrooted, dozens of apps installed, all apps up-to-date, and I have never encountered this error message. (My device is encrypted, if that matters.)

I started getting this today, too.
Stock everything on my Note 3.

What is so infuriating about this, is that it doesn't tell you which app it is blocking. What in the hell is the point of blocking something if you're not going to even tell me what the potential threat was?!

my 2 cents

I started getting this error after Friday, 10-25 9no system updates I am aware of, stock/un-rooted) I had uninstalled almost all 3rd party apps and just decided to wipe and install from a clean base (that stopped the error, I have installed my must have apps and still good) I would really like to know what was causing this error.

Cheers,
BR

I have also been receiving this error message. Has been roughly 8-10 days now. Seems it appears every time I connect to wifi. (I use juice defender. Every screen unlock the notification pops up when connectivity is re-enabled) I'm stock/unrooted with the same apps I used on my note 2. (Fresh download no titanium restores) I have avg pro installed and it does not detect any errors/viruses/suspicious content. I'm debating factory resetting as well, but for my own curiosity would like to know what the cause of this message is rather then resetting everything and awaiting it to happen again.

Has anybody have any ideas on what's going on?

Thanks,

John

Getting a similar message every several hours on my note 3.
How do we know which application is causing this warning.

Confimed that this annoying message appears on mine as well

It's got to be in Settings>General>Security somewhere, but I can't seem to pinpoint it either.

It's completely stock. I did NOT mess around with anything - root, sim unlock, bootloader, titanium backup (which requires root). All apps are downloaded via google store. Nothing seems unusual. I didn't install any apk that requires "unknown sources" checked.

Most settings are default. I only disable autoupdate, location services, and bluetooth to improve battery life.

Same here, I did not play with roots nor anything else, just plain regular stuff and settings and downloading from the Google store and Samsung store. The message keeps popping up.

I googled the problem and don't seem to find a solution yet.

I downloaded the [APP] Notification History with the hope that it will record which application is causing this annoying warning.

Did that reveal anything?

Not yet, I will post if I get any results.

Just started getting this today. Seems like when connected to wifi this pops up.

Also I just noticed that my phone started to not go to deepsleep very well. This started two days ago. I'm wondering if this warning notification is the causing my phone to not go to deepsleep.

Thankfully so far, I am not getting this, but I am rooted, it seams everyone listed here said they are unrooted, maybe root the device, see if it changes anything.

 

[knokfirst]

I am rooted and am getting the message. Also am now getting horrible battery life ever since getting the notifications.

Since I installed [APP] Notification History few hours ago and I haven't seen the Prevention Information Warning yet, but it seems as if this app is preventing that warning because I hear a notification sound every couple of hours almost but nothing is showing in the status bar or in the list of the Notification History. Strange issue!
