Ads keep hijacking browser, wtf is causing it? I have adaway installed and enabled so how are these ads getting through? They pop up randomly with opera browser when I click any page really, if I google a question and click a page sometimes the ads will redirect me to some be page same if I click my bookmarks.

What bloatware apps, the device ships with no bloatware.

The exact same ones I had on my other phone and it didn't have this problem.

This happens when you visit a specific website. Easy solution: Delete cache from browser app. Make sure not browsing nasty websites

And use the Ghostery browser or the CM browser.
