  1. Help!!! it is NOT a good title/subject
  2. Elaborate on the pop up, which app is it?

If nothing works, you can always repair your phone with either PCC or SUS but you don't quite need to.

Thats the problem the pop ups are in japanesse I think and its always the same two apps I can tell because of the icons when they appear I select the task manager and press and hold the pop up to display app info, once I get here it dosent let me cancel the show notification thick the name of the app shown is Package Installer version 4.2.2-C_93rg

Hope this is more specific, and thanks.

Have you installed any new applications around the time you started to see these pop ups? These are likely push notifications/adverts pushed to the phone by a third party application that you would need to uninstall to stop.
