What keeps causing these things on mobile? A bunch of stuff I don't even download or type keeps popping up on pages and search boxes. Spam websites and messages keep popping up also.

Either you have a redirect virus or you have a regular virus (or multiple). Did you do everything you were told in the other thread?

Even after the factory reset? Phone viruses and virus protection isn't really that advanced. I haven't ever heard of someone getting a virus on their phone.

Screenshot the message and post every program you have installed

TD has had trouble with pop-ups and redirects from time to time, but I haven't had any or seen complaints in a while. Is it only on TD?

The factory reset took care of it. No more pop up messages saying virus or wanting money
