Home screen iAd Test Advertisement

[howlett15]

I recently jailbroke my 4.2.1 3GS with greenp0is0n. Now I have applied 2 different free themes from SD section of cydia themes. I apply a theme, respring, and everything looks fine. When I open any apps and then close them I get an iAd Test Advertisement at the top that doesn't go away and can't be clicked on. I've tried rebooting and resprings but get the same results. It only happens when a theme is applied? Any ideas? Thank you.

The exact same thing happens to me but it doesn't matter if I have a theme on or not. This only happens when I'm connected to a WiFi network.

I am on Jailbroken, untethered 4.2.1 via greenpois0n. I don't have any themes installed, and i get the iAd banner when i'm unlocking the phone.

If i put the phone on sleep while it's in an app (happened while putting phone to sleep in settings, email, and weather+ HD so far), and then you hit the home button, slide to unlock. You can see the iAd at the top of the screen while the image zooms into the screen. Once, the screen has covered the iAd, you can no longer see it.

I managed to snap a screenshot right after i slid to unlock and while the image was zooming in.

What's the deal with this? Is from jailbreaking or is it actually part of the OS?

If you have SBSettings you can just delete the process iAdsheet and it will disappear. I see this every single time I close the app "modmyi" to view this forum on my iphone... what a coincidence.

Thanks for this, I am having the same problem. Do you really have to cancel the process every single time? What a pain. I hope someone smarter than I can come up with a better solution. By the way, it does this when closing weather.com app too.

I finally fixed the issue by SSH into the phone and removing AdSheet.app from the applications. I backed it up first in case of any issues afterwards but so far no ads have appeared and no problems at all.

I will give that a try. Thanks!
