Long story short, she loved the DINC 2, we bought her one (I have a DINC) and I rooted and all that crap to ditch the bloatware. That being said the other day she was in the menus and turning things off and I think she may have jacked with the Google framework. I can't sync her contacts, add a Google account, or access the market. I tried reflashing the ROM but without a wipe it looks hopeless. Is there an APK or something I can install in order to restore the functionality?
Thanks in advance.

Flash Google apps "gapps"
sent...ah whatever its on there now..
That is actually a bug with the stock firmware. Happened to me several times. Go into manage applications and see that many things are greyed out. You need to factory reset. This is caused be deleted apps from the manage applications menu. Just happens randomly when doing that.

I noticed this happened on my friend's rhyme. If they factory reset will the issue still occur?

More than likely... I had to do a factory reset three different times on my Inc2 when it kept losing google related apps, rooting it solved those issues though
Flash a different ROM other than stock. Something's wrong with it. I lost my alarm.

Just got my HTC One X and have gone through the initial set-up process... I assumed it would auto-restore all the apps I've ever downloaded from the Android/Play store (as it did on my Transformer Prime) but that doesn't seem to have happened with the One X?
Anyone got any ideas?
It did it for me, but only after I first loaded up the Play store and accepted the user agreement.
that's really weird, anyone got any ideas how i can get mine to trigger? i've got over 100 apps and it'll be a nightmare downloading them individually...
I could never figure it out. Some ROMs I would put on my sensation would auto restore apps, some wouldn't. I couldn't figure what affected it. Funnily enough, on my sensation I didn't want the apps to auto download, as I had titanium backup pro.

I assumed it was because of HTC's Sense custom setup wizard but if Solaris81 didn't have any problems then I guess not... wouldn't be because my phone's carrier-locked would it?
It could be as mine is unlocked.

Have you at least tried a factory reset and reinstalling your phone?
mine downloaded about 15 apps - i prob have about 50 - but every custom or even stock rom i have put on either my desire, desire HD, sensation has always been hit and miss on how many it actually downloads. --- Titanium backup all the way

I tried that and it just downloaded the apps I had before factory resetting
@nickhuk they were probably just updates?
Anyone else had this issue/anyone else's previous apps restored successfully, if so at which point during setup did this happen?
Just FYI, I'm coming from an Xperia Play and I also own a Transformer Prime, this is my first HTC device
Is there not any way to force the re-downloading of all previously purchased/downloaded apps as opposed to trying this really fiddly way?
Camera
Why is it that even after factory resetting and re-installing CM10 on my SK17i the camera still doesn't work? I thought CM10 was finished? And for some reason it works on my girlfriends phone (exactly the same phone).
Don't want to sound ungrateful ofcourse, these ROMs are fantastic .
--------------------
Excuse me, this wasn't supposed to be in this thread, but I had to wait to post this for some reason..
Hello,
I've loved this phone since it came out, but just recently my camera started to not focus. Every once in a while it won't open at all. I've tried changing the settings in app, clearing the data under settings>applications, uninstalled and reinstalled. I've even tried a few of the camera apps from the market. Nothing.
I've done a few searches, but seem to only get threads for other phones. Apparently i'm not very good at searching this site. Anyhow, if anybody knows of a fix for this, or can point me in the right direction, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks!

Are you rooted and running a custom ROM?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
If you've tried everything software/ROM related as far as re-installing/flashing I hate to say that it could probably be hardware related and you may need a replacement phone. I had this happen a month ago .. focus was never in place, tried everything, multiple roms, apps, wiping, etc. Turned out it was hardware, the camera board went ka-poot.
My gs2 is rooted and running TDJ's DARKSIDE.UCLE2::[BETA05].
So.... If it is a hardware issue, i'm hoping it is still under warranty. If it is, do you think TMO is going to give me hell for having the phone rooted? Do I need to go back to stock before I go see them?

Will do. Thanks!
So I've been fighting with Touchwiz force closing quite often since the JB update. I flashed the full official ROM from Telus, as well as 2 other Telus based ROMS, all suffered from the same problem. The only thread I found pertaining to a similar issue is HERE.
Issue:
Touchwiz force-closing (stopping), when creating folders, or moving icons on the homescreen (like to delete them or move them to another homescreen).
In a nutshell, myself and 2 friends all have GS3s. 2 of us were having the issue, myself (rooted) and my friend (unrooted, completely stock), where as another friend (rooted) was not having the issue.
After much hair pulling and testing (3 different ROMS, using different computers and cables to flash, having my device flashed by my friend who was not having the issue), I came to the conclusion that Touchwiz was force closing ONLY when the App Drawer was in "Alpahbetical List" view type. When it was in a "grid" view type, there were no issues.
I was wondering if anyone else could do some testing and let me know if I'm on the right track with this.
I ask that you change your App menu to "Alphabetical List", and use it normally for a few hours or days, and let me know if you see any instances of Touchwiz force closing. If I see enough response, I'll start looking into how to place a bug report on this.
Thanks.
Did you wipe/factory reset? You should not be having issues like that if you did.I don't see any of that.

I wiped, factory reset, cleared caches, etc several times, as well as trying 3 different ROMS like I said.
The only way I could fix it was to clear data from Touchwiz Home. But the issue would still come back after a few hours.
So you are on JB, and are using "Alphabetical list" without issues??
Did you back up system and maybe restored the data wipe titanium by accident? If you have a clean install with nothing restored yet does it do this? If not install back all your apps one by one widget by widget to see what is causing this. Could be an app compatible issue. I tried to replicate your issue and could not at all.

Essentially a clean install, nothing installed or restored with titanium, and the issue was there. I think the only apps I had installed were Chrome browser, Go SMS (or Handcent, I tried them both because I thought maybe one of them was causing the issue), and Facebook. Other than that, I was on a stock rom (rooted).
I was just able to re-create the issue by doing the following:
1) Switch app list view type to "Alphabetical list".
2) Go to task manager, do a "Clear memory"
3) Go to homescreen, grab an icon, as if to remove it from home screen, and let it go.
Touchwiz force closes (Unfortunately, TouchWiz Home has stopped). As soon as I set it back to "Alpahbetical grid", everything works as it should.
Note: I do have a folder in the shortcut area on the homescreen (bottom, next to the Apps button), not sure if this makes a difference, but it usually starts when a folder is created...
I was able to recreate this problem on 2 Telus devices, and 1 stock Rogers device, all running JB.
Followed that and I still unable to recreate this. I also have a folder on mine in dock for email with Gmail and email in it. I am at&t though. Even though I am not sure if it matters.

Hmmmm, interesting. I was thinking of perhaps trying an AT&T based ROM (all I've tried were Telus based, and was able to recreate the bug on a friends Rogers device as well...). Maybe it's Canadian devices only? I did notice that it doesn't seem to be a very widespread issue. Although there was a thread about it, there were very few responses...
I'll see about flashing an AT&T ROM, but for the moment, its working properly in grid view, so I'm good with that.
Thanks for the input though!
I'm not able to reproduce this issue on my SGH-I747M (Rogers) running stock (not rooted) Android 4.1.1.
If you factory reset/wipe data on the stock ROM, configure the phone without installing any third-party apps from the Play Store (heck, don't even bother signing in with a Google account initially for this one), then set the app drawer to alphabetical list and attempt to reproduce the issue as per your earlier steps does it still occur? Just curious.

Thanks for trying it out.
I was actually able to reproduce it on my friends stock Rogers 4.1.1 OS.
I was able to reproduce it with a minimal install of third-party apps (mentioned in another post, I think I had Chrome, Go SMS and Facebook installed...).
Perhaps I'll give it a try if I flash a new ROM anytime soon. Right now, my device is working well, and I only figured out it was the List option causing me the problem after installing a bunch of apps and customizing. Don't feel like resetting right now just to try to reproduce it, lol.
Tested on Rogers Stock 4.1.1 root injected, no issues at all here.

My old Epic 4g is rooted with stock deodexed gingerbread rom. After I rooted it a year or so ago, I removed some of the bloatware on it.
My daughter lost her phone and I want her to use this one for now, but in order to switch the main google account you have to do the hard reset/restore to factory settings. Am I able to do this with no problems?

It should be fine. The factory reset, just clears the email, contacts, apps, etc.

What i have done so far is: cleared cache, uninstalled updates and then let it update on its own and then trying to update/resume downloads, factory reset. It is happening on my One and LG G pad. Anybody run across a fix or have any tips other than what I've already tried? I contacted Google and like an idiot when he asked about me being rooted i said yes. He blamed my problems on being rooted. I dont believe that is the problem since i went all the way back to stock with the same problems. Beyond frustrated.

Yeah that ones kind of pointless. I think what some people say is create a new account just to update all your apps and then switch back. Maybe uninstall paid apps prior as well. And then re install once you update core apps.
To me it sounds like a google problem with your account. Does this happen when downloading new apps, when updating an already installed app, or both? Is it just paid apps or free apps too? Try to create a new google account just to see if you can successfully download a new app, or update your current apps. If it works with the new account, then the problem is google and not your phone.
Well, your not gonna believe what fixed it....I changed my password. Maybe something or someone got a hold of my password somehow and blocked the play store..thanks for all the suggestions!

I'm glad you got it worked out. That's annoying it was something so ridiculous.
Well..turns out that must have been temporary. After changing it, worked for a little while then, I had to change my password after purchasing apps twice, error out after each purchase...Google tech help is worthless.
