I just received Xiaomi 15 Ultra and as expected there were ads but I could disable most of them. There is one ad though, of GameBird which opens up if you have enabled Game Turbo and you run a game. Turning off content recommendation in Game Turbo doesn’t work.
I have disabled Game Turbo for now.
Is anyone else facing this issue?
How can this be resolved?
I am using HyperOS 2.0.2.0 Indian ROM
Note- I have disabled MSA, and turned off content recommendation and ads wherever I could find.
I don’t use game turbo, I turn on the performance mode when I launch hungry games like Zenless Zone Zero

How one can possibly trigger this ad is through
1. Enabling game turbo in the security app (even with content recommendation turned off)
2. Downloading ppsspp from Google store and adding it in game turbo if it doesn’t happen on its own.
3. When opening ppsspp, when you write on the edge of the screen to open game turbo, the game bird ad opens up with the option to switch to game turbo.
I am not sure if this is the case when playing other games but I’ll be checking it today and updating here.
It’s specific to some games when running game turbo. I did more research yesterday. Only some games trigger game bird ad. I am writing how one can replicate it in their phone.
Change dns to dns.adguard.com .
Ads will get blocked.
Don’t have ads either Global ROM
Haha, lucky you 😂
I had to spend 20 mins disabling content recommendations and ads and all.
Game Turbo is part of Security App of HyperOS, don’t know if there is away to
Apparently, this is an old problem
But the fix involves disabling the Authorization of Security app, which makes it useless.
You could try restricting the Internet access of the game turbo app. Maybe it can’t load ads then
