I installed it from the market but it does not allow to activate another profile..

Can you be more specific? Device, rom, error string maybe?

I'm running Calk's 2.8.1 and it doesn't work for me. Just reboots phone. Maybe I'll install it on my old EVO and run a few tests there.
And what do you mean about using CWM to test and see?

I checked the reviews and maddoggin form here has posted that it does not work on our phone...strange that it works on SG Epic...

Did the recent update help us?

I believe we have fixed any outstanding issues!

Still not working for me. I'm still running Calk's 2.8.1 and I've uninstalled, reinstalled, deleted profiles, uninstalled and reinstalled again (because it wouldn't let me create new profiles), created new profiles and tried it. It did a reboot the same as last time, only I got the added bonus of having to reinstall all my apps that were on the SD card.
How many other phones are having this issue? Is it a CDMA thing? I really like the idea of this app and would be willing to pay for it, but it just doesn't work on my phone

Still not working... now I'm running Calk's 2.9, same BS as before, had to reinstall all my apps that were on the SD card.
Has ANYBODY gotten this to work on the E4GT?

[Q] Problems after flashing rooted Gingerbread.

I rooted my EVO and flashed radio 'EVO_Radio_2.15.00.05.02_WiMAX_27243_PRI_2.15_003.zip'
Then I flashed a rooted stock gingerbread/sense ROM 'supersonic_4.22.651.2_deodexed-signed.zip'
Problem 1: I reinstalled a bunch of my apps using Titanium Backup, but none of these apps are showing up in the Market.
Problem 2: I cannot sync Facebook for HTC Sense. Whenever I try to sign in, I keep getting the error "The service is currently unavailable. Do you want to try again?"
I have tried all sorts of things like uninstalling all Facebook for Android updates and even a supposed fix I found in other forums in which you edit your work information on your facebook profile. Nothing seems to work.
Can anyone help?

For the apps not showing up in your market it takes time and a reboot or two. The facebook thing I'm not sure about though, it wouldn't work right for me from day one so I haven't tried to use it in awhile.
Why do people need their apps to show up in the market if they already have them reinstalled with TB??

I just find it helpful to see which apps need updating. It's definitely not essential.
For the apps download a free app from the market and they should show up they did for me.

Thanks a lot guys. Today was my first experience with flashing. I can see why it's addicting.
I have a different problem after I flashed to the latest Gingerbread ROM, (on my eVO 4G btw). I flashed the latest ROM "gingerbread evo 1.2v", when that finished i flashed "EVO_Radio_2.15.00.05.02_WiMAX_27243_PRI_2.15_003" (was told it should fix any radio issues). then flashed "gapps 5-21-2011 with Voicemail.apk and Gtalk 1.3 with Voice and Video". My EVO restarted fine but now i cant make any calls or recieve any. In fact the status bar at the top isn't even there. When i press the phone icon i get a message saying "Application not installed on your phone". I must be missing a step or something. Any help would be great, thanks.

I read in another forum you sometimes need to re-flash the kernel after flashing new radios. You could try re-flashing the ROM now that you have the updated radios.
just tried flashing the rom after everything else and still same results. Any other suggestions?

I'm new to flashing ROMs personally, but I've also read people recommending to do a clean wipe 2 or 3 times and wipe the dalvik cache as many times before flashing again. I don't know what sort of issues they feel they are preventing by doing that so I don't know how plausible of a solution it is, but if you've got the time it wouldn't hurt to try.
Hopefully someone with more experience will chime in and you won't have to get your advice from a noob. Best of luck.

Seems to be happening on a few GB leaks. The only way I found to fix it is to delete the market and market updater, flash in an old market 2.3.6 and freeze Market Updater. I will be experimenting with 3.0.2.7 tomorrow but in the meantime here is 2.3.6 for you to try:

Yeah, I believe that any 3.x version will still update automatically no matter what you freeze. I will see if I can find 3.026 somewhere today and try that. But you have to clear data in Titanium and Force Stop in settings, then remove it completely from your system, flash the file above and immediately freeze market updater and market feedback upon boot. The older version of the market is much faster anyway.

Oh ok thanks I d/l yours. Will follow this when I get home tonight. This started last Wednesday or Thursday for me sucked I was a way on vacation rebuilding my phone on my anniversary at dinner LOL. No matter what I did I thought there was a issue with permissions or something tried everything except flashing back to stock. Is it only on certain versions of the leak? I can go back to ec05 but really don't want to.
Yes it is only on certain leaks and I am guessing it is caused by the same thing that causes the new Google Voice to FC. Anyone running Market 3.1.5 on a Gingerbread leak let me know which ROM so I can see if we are missing a file removed as bloat.

That does not run either the new Market or Google Voice updates. Is there a GB leak ROM that does not FC with either of these updates? I guess I can compare files in the stock deodexed EH17.

MIUI v1.11.18

Anyone run this latest version? If so are you having any issues with it?
I have 1.09.20 on mine. Im afraid to update. Everything runs great for me. Only reason I want to update is to use the ESCEnter, Left and Right mods. I cant find them for 1.09.20 anymore.

When you installed did you need to back up apps? Thats another reason I havent upgraded. I read the way themes were installed changed and locations changed. I dont want to lose my Jorte theming or my MIUI theming that Ive done.
Well, first off. You can always just make a nandroid of ur 1.9 rom, and just try 1.11.18. Anything you don't like and you can go right back. I always do a fresh install, and re-dl my apps manually from the market every friday. Just easier for me.
Titanium backup, or the miui app backup should work if you decide to do a fresh install.
Location of themes? Still in sdcard/miui/themes, still mtz's. They changed a way the file compresses a while back. But that doesn't hurt anything, or change.
I'm at like 160 mtz's on my sd card i've been gathering since march, none have ever gotten messed up or lost. Same with wallpapers I've collected from the theme manager.
Ive got it installed. So far no issues other than MIUI extended settings not working at all.

Read the OP of the extended settings mod thread here. It's not just a flashable zip any more, there is the zip but you also need the apk, it should explain everything. I'd select the no-overscroll mod, last time I tried overscroll there were network issues (basically no service). I'm still on 11.11 but the no-overscroll works perfectly for me.

Not sure what to tell you, I just updated to 11.18 to see if it works and it's fine for me. You have to reboot or reset your status bar by changing themes in the theme manager for the right/center/switched layouts to take effect.
Everything works now except the volume button. It works in recovery, but not in the rom.

Did some more testing. The volume also works in apps to turn down the music level and the volume works if I open the notification toggles and hit the sound button and the volume button right after.

Couldn't install on USB Storage or SD Card

Today I started getting a strange error when downloading select apps onto my internal SD card. Most apps download just fine, but some of them have this error when I try to download them. Since it's an internal SD, I can't mount/unmount, so I'm trying to figure out why this is happening. I am currently running Nocturnal Venum v1.0, but when I was on the older version before upgrading today, I never had this problem.
Apps that cause this error:
Aldiko
Sprint NBA Mobile
Cordy
Running Fred
There seems to be no correlation between the size of the app and whether this happens. When trying to restore them through TB though, TB just freezes and I need to reboot my phone if I want to use TB again.
Has anyone else gotten this error? If so, how did you fix it?
unmount sd card, go back to market and install apps, then remount sd. been a bug on a lot of ICS builds
edit: i didn't read well enough. I see you already crossed this bridge
That's just Titanium Backup. I have several apps that do that every time. Just manually redownload those apps from Play store. Delete the backups for the apps that freeze and redownload, and rebackup. Fixed the issue for a few of those for me.

No, as I said in the post, it freezes when restoring with TB and i get this error when installing with the play store

TB freezes on several of apps everytime for me too. As for the market there are 3 fixes that I know of: 1) unmount usb when installing 2) use a stock kernel 3) clear data/cache for google play and download manager, then reboot.
It could also be a bad ROM flash.

Thanks for the help but I've already tried all of them and none of them work :/
I don't think it's a bad ROM flash because I reflashed and redownloaded 3x and the same thing is happening, oddly enough. I guess I'll have to deal with it.
If I remember, FD02 had those problems. It's worked ok again in FD10 and FD16 so far. Can't remember about FD05. You can always unmount your sd card, load or restore the apps, then remount. That is a good work around.

Ever find a solution? I still don't have it. I have had issues with this in the past, as well. I was running ICS a while ago but went back to GB for this reason. I have to be able to get medscape or epocrates. I just tried ICS again and it's greatly improved, but I see this appears still broken.

So, the issue (at least one of them) is that apps that require installation on the SD won't install. CY9 has issues with this, as well, per this link

If anyone is still having this problem, mine was solved installing the latest ICS kernel. My problem started because I accidentally installed FD10 instead of FE10. But when I installed the right one, the latest kernel for the latest AOKP biuld, it started working again. Might be worth checking which kernel you might have installed.
Deleting smdl2tmp1.asec worked for me. Would post link to more info but not allowed. Sadface.
where is this file located -- nm found it
Uninstall then re install!
All I did was uninstall then re install the app, this sounds kinda risky because I thought I may lose the app completely, but it worked :laugh: ! I did this with exDialer, but have not attempted to see if it will work with any other apps with this error. Sometimes just persevering and repeatedly trying to install the damn thing works (but not usually!) Hope this helps

[SOLVED] AdAway Blocks ads on WiFi only

So I've used AdAway since I bought my GNex, and it's always worked perfectly until now. Whenever I was on 4.1.x ROMs, AdAway would block all the ads on various apps on any network connection, whether WiFi, 3G, or Edge. Ever since upgrading to a 4.2.x ROM, it is only blocking when I'm connected to a WiFi network. On cellular data connections its like I don't even have AdAway installed. I've tried it on different 4.2.1 ROMs, and they all give the same results. I'm pretty sure that the reason its not working has to do with the Android version, but I can't find anybody else that has this problem, or at least can't find it posted anywhere. Does anybody have a solution or suggestion on how to try and fix it?
Thanks.
Solution: APN proxy causes ads to show up. Removed it and all is good!
It blocks for 3G/4G for me just fine. On 4.2.1 myself.
Try reinstalling the app? what is your ROM / Kernel set up?
Try installing SuperSU https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwyLDEsImV1LmNoYWluZmlyZS5zdXBlcnN1Il0.

I actually have reinstalled the app. Should've went into more detail in my first post. I've tried redownloading from the market as well as reinstalling from a titanium backup, without data. I've uninstalled and reinstalled about 5 different times now, each with a different combination of reboots in between. I'm currently running ParanoidAndroid 2.99 beta8 with stock kernel. But I've had the exact same issue with each of the below configurations:
Paranoid 2.99 beta 6, two different beta 7s, two beta 8s. I've had the stock kernel with each beta, and also tried Franco.kernel r342 (if memory serves) on beta 6, and each beta 7s. I have only used stock kernel on beta 8. I've also had the stock ROM rooted installed with stock kernel. Come to think of it, I've only used Paranoid or Stock 4.2.x ROMs. Could it have something to do with the Paranoid ROM? But what confuses me is why it blocks on WiFi just fine, but no other connections. Paranoid has SuperSU with it, but I think when I rooted the stock ROM it was just SuperUser, not SuperSU.
Thanks for your help!

I had no problems with AdAway when I used my GN with CM10.1 + Franco (gave the phone to a family member, i keep it updated every other day). You can try another ROM or try https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DMsImNvbS5iaWd0aW5jYW4uYW5kcm9pZC5hZGZyZWUiXQ.. I find adaway to be more superior though but if adaway doesnt work and adfree. just use that for the time being

Well I just installed JBSourcery ROM and downloaded AdAway from the Play Store. It still does the same thing, no ad-blocking on cellular data. It's really starting to drive me nuts! I use the Chive app for testing it, and that's where I notice the ads the most, but it isn't blocking in any app unless on WiFi.

Always! When I flash a different ROM I do a Factory Reset, then Wipe Cache and Dalvik, usually twice. If I'm going from one kind of ROM to another I usually wipe /system as well, but if I'm just upgrading within a family of ROMs I only wipe Cache and Dalvik. I'm at a complete loss as to what could be causing it. I think the next thing I'm gonna try is formatting /system, data (not /data/media), cache and Dalvik, then install a 4.2.1 ROM, GApps, then AdAway and theChive and see if it works. If it does then maybe an app I have is conflicting, though I don't see how.
Thanks again.

Yep that's exactly how you're supposed to do it. It's just awkward how there are so many problems. What baseband do you use? lol

Yeah I'm "somewhat" knowledgable about flashing and computers and things, so I try to do things the right way when I do them. That's part of why this bugs me so much.

Nope, no ad-blocking on the router. I've tried on different networks too, so I'm pretty sure it's not related to the router or wireless network. It's gotta be something on MY phone, I just can't figure out what.......

Not even sure. I'm having problems trying to wrap my head around this problem. Have you tried looking at other apps, websites ads? and not just for that one particular app?
Speedtest, Quadrant has an ad on the bottom.

Haha. You and me both. I use theChive to test because that's what I first noticed it on, but it happens in every app. I just checked again with speed test. Websites ads also behave the same. I'm so confused at this point, I just can't see how connection could possibly matter on just MY phone. I'm gonna try my plan from the last post when I get home and see if it works any better. Leaving work now.

Yeah, well, I probably had other things I should've been doing, but you know how that goes. lol.
I did a factory reset, wiped /system, cache, and dalvik before the ROM flash. Then I flashed JBSourcery v4, gapps, then wiped cache and dalvik again. When it first booted, I installed AdAway from Play Store, applied blocking, rebooted, installed theChive and speedtest.net from Play Store, and I STILL have the same problem. The only thing I have left to format is my sdcard I think, but I don't know if that would have any effect.
Would you mind telling me what your options are set to in AdAway or post a screenshot of the settings screen? Maybe I have a problem there somehow carrying over through ROMs. I appreciate all your help so far. This thing is really bugging me. Thanks again!

Mines are all pretty much default. Downloaded app and applied it. Didn't do anything special. Only thing checked in settings is to check for updates.
Have you tried Cyanogenmod? What kernel do you normally use as well?

I haven't tried Cyanogenmod yet. Maybe I'll try flashing that next. I usually use whatever stock kernel is installed with the ROM now. In the past I've used Franco.kernel and I've never used any kernel besides those two. The only thing I have left to check is something on my sdcard causing problems. With a factory reset, format /system, cache, and dalvik, there isn't anything that doesn't get wiped is there? I'm gonna try a different baseband too. I really don't think that'll fix it but stranger things have happened. Thanks again for your help!
