    Yes I noticed them and have already uninstalled it. But worth remembering it if needed in the future.
    There are other file managers without such unpleasantness if you need one in the future.

    I don't get any such annoyances. Then again I've set it in Notifications (in Android settings) to be blocked. :)

    This post would be much more useful if you named them.
    Is File Commander one of them?
  • Sorry dude, I'm not a Android guy therefore can't help.

    I wonder how many apps are installed used once and then uninstalled?

    No longer left on the device, so they are actually used less often?

    I make a lot of calls that need to be recorded, on my Galaxy S2 i had Galaxy call recorder which worked and had just the one little advert bar.
    Moved onto new phones and the apps have become bloated with adverts that move around so you click them accidently and splash screens and other notifications. Yes you can turn off the notifications but moving adverts and splash screens are annoying.

    Sometime choosing the paid for app (if available) doesnt remove them properly.

    My call recorder never gets opened now. It records and i transfer the file to my PC to store them.
