Really annoyed

Phone has been working flawlessly the past couple days after I got my media messages working
Today I dragged some music onto my phone (not the SD card) and all my downloaded apps dissappeard. what the f??
Where did they go and WHY did they go? Really annoyed right now
Running the kingdom rewind rom btw

1) Try removing the songs you transfered. You might have it in a directory that they're not suppose to be in and it's messing up the apps.
2) Longshot, but maybe you deleted some app data by accident while transferring?
There's probably something else that you don't know about that is causing this, honestly I'm not sure but just suggesting the above.

already deleted the songs. all my apps were gone before i did this.
one thing i thought of just now. I did use the "low storage" app that came with rewind and didnt try any of my apps after that. moved em all to sd card and cleared cache. i think thats what did it

Try a complete reboot and see if they're there. I hit this occasionally when I connect my Incredible to the PC. When I disconnect, suddenly a handful of apps are gone. Fast reboot doesn't restore them, but complete power off and restart, or full reboot does.

[Q] Installed ICS, now I can't copy files to the kindle

hi!
I just installed hashcode's plain rom and kernel. Very nice, all is good except I can't play fluffy birds because the kindle won't go full screen, so when you click the play button nothing happens.
Unfortunately, this is a deal breaker, as it is the only game my wife wants to play, and it's her kindle. (lol, if she ain't happy, nobody is happy.- I switched from stock so I could plug a keyboard into the fire)
So I went looking for a rom that will go full screen and actually hide the task bar. I downloaded gegeROM to my computer, but when I plug the kindle in, it doesn't appear on my hard drive list, so I can't copy the file over.
KFU works fine, sees it, installed google aps, etc. So it's all still working. When it was stock I just copied the files over in windows and installed using twrp.
1) Why can't I do that now?
2) How do I make it work?
Thanks!

One thing you can try, is uninstall the rivers you have now for the kindle, then plug your kindle back into the computer and let the drivers reinstall

Don't know about gederom, but in the base ROM from hashcode, there is an option you can change. Go to settings-> System-> status bar-> check off the auto hide option under General. That should hide the status bar and let you go full screen. Doesn't work for every app but does work for many of them. Very likely you have the same or equivalent option in your ROM.

Well everything WAS working 5 minutes before installing ics. I made a backup and dumped the whole kindle to my computer, before wiping everything, copying the rom to the sd card and installing in twrp.

I did that in hash's rom. It didn't do anything. That's why I wanted to try another rom, but I can't copy it to the kindle in windows anymore. Adb works, I probably could push the file on, but I want to be able to see the kindle in windows like I did with stock.
To clarify: I'm running hash's stock ICS. I can't copy another rom to the kindle in windows because the kindle doesn't show up on "My Computer" in windows, like it did a half hour or so ago when I was running stock.

Adb push will work. If you want to see the kindle in windows, you can boot into recovery and mount the sdcard. That should let you see it and easily copy files back and forth.

I had the same issue just 2 days ago when I rooted my kindle fire. The recovery boot seems a bit excessive to me......
I personally run a FTP server which Is a real nice way to wirelessly get ur files out to your kindle but also to virtually every other device in your house. I use esfileexplorer which has an FTP client built in.
Has been working seemlessly

I see you got it working but if I was you I would skip all the cable nonsense when dealing with the MTP file system ICS uses and download airdroid from the market. Fire it up, enter what it tells you in a browser on your computer and transfer your files over wifi.
Also, windows 7 doesn't seem to have issues with MTP like windows xp does for me.

[Q] "The application is not registered" error when I launch kindle reader. Ugh.

[Q] "The application is not registered" error when I launch kindle reader. Ugh.
Very few search results for this error, so I'm out of ideas. It has come up once before but the thread is closed -->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356441
My reader worked fine for 8 months. Then it updated to version 3.7.0.108.
Now when I click any of the "tabs" such as home, archive, on device, etc... I get this:
"The application is not registered. Trying to register it now. Please try again in a few seconds..."
No book will open, I get an "Invalid Item" error and it suggests I redownload it.
I have a rooted 1st generation KF with GoLauncher on it and ...I dunno if it's a custom rom or what.
I get a blue kindle fire logo when I first power up. I just installed the recommended stuff with the Kindle Fire Utility.
Fixes I've tried:
1. Restarting the device
2. Force stopping the app, then clearing the cache.
3. Going to the play store and choosing "Uninstall". The problem is, this doesn't really uninstall the app, it says something like "this will uninstall all updates to the kindle reader". If I go to settings --> applications, the option to fully uninstall is grayed out.
After doing the google play 'uninstall', the device freezes if I try to launch the reader.
4. Manually reinstalling/updating via the google play store. Now it launches and the device doesn't freeze, but I still get the errors. Also my books are gone but that's no biggie.
I also called tech support. They had me unregister my device from settings --> My Account... and eventually re-register it.
They also had me clear cache. Then those things didn't work they elevated me to level 2 tech support.
I foolishly mentioned I had the go launcher installed, they refused to help any further and insisted the 3rd party launcher was the cause of the problem, and my only fix is to factory reset and stick to the stock software.
So, if you made it this far, thanks for listening... now what?

If you have Root Explorer (or equivelent) for access to system apk files, you could try deleting that app from the /system/app folder, restart the device, go back to the system apps, paste another copy (or version) of that app in there and set permissions to match the other apks in the folder, reboot and hope it might correct the issue. It sounds like a software glitch from the getgo even on un-rooted devices.

howdy, thanks for the idea.
I have root explorer and root access, but when I go to rename or delete anything in that folder, I get "the file cannot be renamed because the file system is read only".
Also, I'm only assuming it's the app called "Kindle for Otter" which is the only one with the traditional kindle reader icon of a dude under a tree reading.
Is there an alternative reader that's still very convenient? Like I don't have to download books via USB or anything, it just monitors the appropriate folders and my freshly-purchased books appear in the list?

You must just be rooted and not have any custom ROM installed otherwise you could mount the system/app folder as r/w, meaning you probably don't have Superuser installed? Superuser is supposed to be installed when you root the device with the Kindle Utility but I couldn't get it to do it. Since you are rooted then you could try the MoDoCo ROM as it is based on Amazon's own 6.3.1 software and includes the Kindle Reader, Amazon app store and everything that is included with the stock software. In addition it includes the Google services framework and Playstore so you can have the best of both worlds, Google and Amazon. It runs much better than stock and I just flashed it onto my wife's Kindle and she is pretty satisfied with it.
There are plenty of decent reader apps and my suggestion would be try many different ones until you find a suitable one.

Actually, you just have to click the button on the top of root explorer. It should says "Mount R/W" Click it. Now you should be able to delete it and replace it.

Yes that is true but if Superuser (or equivelent) isnt present it doesnt work to well

Well, the mountR/W thing worked, and since then I've gone through a bunch of stuff.
And I'm back to square one. But read anyway if you're bored.
I'm a the point where I could reluctantly nuke everything and start over, I guess that would involve reflashing the rom
and reinstalling all apps?
Here's what I've tried:
• Replaced kindleforotter.apk, set permissions, and rebooted, when the kindle came back up it went straight to the stock launcher... weird.
Maybe cuz GoLauncher coincidentally updated.
• At this point I should click that APK, right? But, curious, I went to my books tab.
All my books are there but missing covers. Some have a down arrow/download icon, others don't.
• 4 books without the icon successfully redownloaded after an error, and were readable.
Sadly these are all older books and the other 20 or 30 books would not do anything when tapped.
• Next I tried reinstalling the app by clicking the kindleforotter.apk I downloaded. It reinstalled, I rebooted,
clicking the shortcut still doesn't work but I went back to the books tab in my kindle launcher.
Now, none of the items launch. The "Invalid Title" items give that error again, but this time they do not redownload.
• I tried removing everything from sdcard/Books and sdcard/Kindle and rebooting. Now only those 4 'lucky' books show up.
But they no longer open when tapped. Looks like it's trying to launch the reader but it crashes.
• Tried manually resending the latest book to my kindle via Amazon's website. It didn't show up.
• So I clicked Sync under my settings icon, and that really hosed it. The kindle launcher would infinitely crash and reopen.
• Since that's worse than the original issue I just updated the reader via the play store, getting myself back to square one.
Thanks if anyone has any other ideas... or some less painful way to reinstall this app completely without wiping out everything.

Sounds like a big mess.....you might just have to start over from scratch. At least that "should" clear up the misc. errors you're receiving. You'd have to re-root if but that process is simple. Reinstalling apps might take a little time but would be worth it if it corrects the issue. The Kindle's stock software (or any software) is not immune to undesirable performance.
One basic correction attempt with software and operating systems is to wipe it clean and re-install. I've had many PCs that had to be wiped and the OS re-installed to fix messed up stuff. Usually we try to re-install apps first to see if it corrects it......sounds like you've already done that.
You could always just find an alternative reader

Howdy... I went ahead and tried support one more time (sometimes you get lucky) but they had no ideas other than a factory reset. I'm gonna look into modaco.
edit: on the off chance you come back to this thread,
I factory reset, installed modaco via TWRP, have one problem.
Books work fine. But I can't access my apps.
When I click the "Apps" tab at the top, the screen flashes briefly and then I'm right back to the usual home screen
(aka the default kindle launcher screen).
I seem to remember a notification (with an amazon icon) about pending app downloads, in the bar at the top.
I skipped over it to check on my books. Now it's gone, and I can't get it back or view a list of apps on the system.
What gives?

That's odd......I never experienced that with MoDaCo. Did you wipe everything before you flashed MoDaCo (cache, dalvik, factory reset and system)? There were slight bugs with MoDaCo I noticed but nothing like that. Try reflashing but dont wipe sd card

I'll see if I can do that. One worry I had... I see modaco is offered in more than one place, and seems to have some options with the installation...
can you point me to a specific zip file that you know for sure is a good working one? Otherwise, I'll assume my zip is good but my wipe wasn't. I just factory reset and never messed with dalvik and the rest, I'm guessing that's all important...

I had the same problem. Solved it by going back to an earlier version of the app.3.6.0.87.

Hey, just wanted to thank you, I reinstalled modaco, but first did the cache wipe and dalvid wipe from the TWRP menus. Apps tab works fine now. Books too.
So far only one minor hiccup... the apps I had formerly installed via GoLauncher. I logged into google play, redownloaded one of them (DrawSomething) and specified that it send the app to my Kindle Fire from the dropdown. It gave me something like "this app will be installed shortly". But I never got anything... no download, no notification. Did it a second time and same deal. Eventually I downloaded it from the Amazon app store, but I'm worried apps from Google Play won't work easily anymore.
Do you know what I should do if I need an app from Google Play?

Had same problem
In case it helps anyone else. I had the same problem. Turns out that the google play store (which remember doesn't come standard with a Fire) had updated the Amazon Kindle application. I went into the play store and uninstalled (un-updated) the Amazon Kindle app and then everything worked.
Good Luck!

Old version solved it!

I have a rooted 1st gen KF running a cyanogen ICS ROM where the Kindle app had been working fine for a while, but suddenly wasn't registered and I couldn't even get the register dialog to display. Found the 3.6.0.87 apk online, installed it and it works fine now.

FYI 3.6.0.87 works on non rooted

This fixes the same problem for non-rooted Kindle Fires where you are running an sideloaded launcher and the Kindle book app and need to reregister.

[Q] Boot loop after forcing my Note 8.0 to reset.

This is what happened:
My device was rooted with Framaroot. I had SManager installed and using apps2sd to swap my internal memory with the SD card.
I ran Fable Kingdom (a game) but still had power saving activated.
The game loaded, but when in-game I was presented with a black screen. I could still hear the game sounds, but the home, menu, and back buttons were unresponsive.
So I held down the power button untill the device restarted.
But within 10 - 20 seconds after the home screen appearing the device would freeze, becoming completely unresponsive for a couple of minutes and then it would reboot.
At first I thought this happened because of SManager, because it froze just as SManager was loaded.
I managed to boot into safe mode (which disables all 3rd party apps) and uninstalled SManager.
Didn't help.
I ran check disk on the SD card on my desktop computer. It found errors and fixed them. Still didn't help.
I then uninstalled all the apps I thought could be running at the time I forced my device to reset: Fable Kingdom, Whatsapp, Taskbar 7, Snap Pad, all to no avail.
I then had a look and manually deleted the data folders for those apps on the SD card because uninstalling them wasn't deleting them (because apps2sd was no longer being loaded?)
Still didn't help.
I'm now thinking a factory reset and formatting of the SD card (i.e. starting from scratch) is my only option. I only wish I could backup the apps I've installed in the last two months since my last Titanium Backup... But as safe mode disables all 3rd party apps, I don't know how to do that?
Any help or advice on what I can do would be greatly appreciated.

You could boot into stock recovery and see if it tells you whether your data partition is corrupt/unable to be mounted. If so, you probably have only the factory reset option (from stock recovery) to fix it.
If the system partition is corrupt, it would need an odin flash to fix, but unless you have an original (old) stock rom for your device, you may lose the ability to use framaroot, as newer roms fixed the exploit.
Having had similar scenarios to what you describe on various devices is why I abandoned incremental or application backups, and only use nandroid (cwm or twrp) backups, so that the backup is of almost the whole device at a point in time.

Sorry for the slow reply, i'm actually trying to move house in and amongst all this.
Ok so I booted into stock recovery. Where will it tell me if my data partition is corrupt?
It looks like this:
Android system recovery <3e>
Volume up/down to move highlight:
power button to select.
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache

Where do I go from here?

According to civato in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42802094, it told him as he entered stock recovery, so I guess your data partition is not corrupt.
You could try factory reset and see if it clears the problem,
Your next step would be to search for your appropriate stock firmware and odin and flash back to stock (and you may need to do the factory reset after that as well if you still can't boot). Sammobile has most of the available firmwares, tools, and instructions, also some of threads here at xda note8. Search, read and understand if you have not used odin before.
Another option is to return back to factory using Kies, but I have never tried this, again you would need to do some research (or wait for other suggestions here).
Good luck!

I have no doubt a factory reset will solve the problem, after all... I can still boot into safe mode, which is pretty much exactly what my device would be like after a factory reset.
I'm not ready to do that though. I still have hope I can identify what is causing my device to freeze 20 seconds after my device has booted into the os, and has started loading apps.
Does anyone know if there is a file that stores which apps are loaded and in what order every time the device is restarted?
If I could read that, I could either modify the file not to load certain apps, or uninstall them one by one.
My main issue is that since my last Titanium Backup, I have installed Horn, Max Payne, and Dark Meadow.
All huge downloads that cost me a fair amount of money (i use cell data. I don't have broadband or free WiFi).
If I were to copy the contents of my SD card, format it, then factory reset my device... Then would I be able to recopy back the data folders to avoid repeating those huge downloads? Or is it hopeless unless I manage to back them up with Titanium?

I am very out of practice on my -ix stuff. But if you are rooted can't you open or install if needed a shell so you can just manually check what processes are running? Hope that is not too simplistic a suggestion but my last exposure that that sort of thing was my old Nokia N800 internet tablet.
Sans that what about once in safe more heading into the APPS list and clearing the cache on your installed apps. If that fails then take a swipe at the built-in stuff. Or does a cold-boot basically do this very thing?

How will I be able to download and install a shell and then run it in under 20 seconds?
All that booting into safe mode does is disable all 3rd party apps, so I know for a fact there is no problem with any of the built in stuff.
I'll try clearing the cache if I can find that option when I get a chance - probably this evening.
Thanks for the suggestions.

oh geeze you're right, didn't think that through. I was thinking you were stable with safe mode boot.

Naw I'm just being dense of late. Sorry for that...been a long past week at and maybe I'm not tracking cleanly tonight.
You are correct you can't add apps in safe mode. I would have sworn you could but I just tried it with my tablet and nope no chance. Sure would be helpful for sure.
What about connecting to your PC as a storage device so you can snoop around the file system a bit to see what you can screw with even more? hehehe...I know you didn't cause this I'm just being a bit goofy.
If you can connect to your PC via USB is it possible to reup the kernal? Maybe that could refresh the system...then again don't want you to brick your tab so consider it only if you are sure it's safe enough.
I'm just throwing out ideas to see if it shakes something loose for you.
Oh, there was something we can try with our Transformers to try to stop the boot loops...it had something to do with booting while cabled to the PC via USB or something like that. Was not an option for me as I had no PC handy when my started looping. But worth a try maybe? Only works here and there but it supposedly did for a few folks.

[Q] Storage Space Running Out, Insufficient storage, my phone trying to screw me?

So...
I've had this problem for a while now, getting worse from day to day. I've asked about this before, but it wasnt solved.
Basically my phone is taking up data in the background. Probably updating, downloading something. Its so bad, that if i dont turn off data on the go, my 1.5GB are used in a day. Sync is turned off at all times
And another side effect of that is, that all that data probably has to be stored somewhere. So Im getting the storage space running out error. Kinda annoying cause I cant use gmail, Cant install any apps(insufficient storage available) etc.
I really have no idea where all that data is(after searching through all the folders for a while now)..
I'm on the latest AOKP Milestone(4.2)
Thanks!

There are a couple things I recommend doing in your position. First thing I would do would be to get an app that allows for more informative breakdown of what is using the storage. Something like diskusage should do the trick. This will allow you to see exactly where data is going, opposed to "misc" Perhaps this will show exactly what is taking up the storage, since you are rooted perhaps backups are the problem.
If that doesn't tell you what you want to know, or if you think an app may be using data behind the scenes then the next step I would do is to use some sort of data usage monitor. The built in one may suffice, settings > data usage. If not there may be better apps out there, although to be honest I have zero experience with those.

It looks like you have some nested 0 folders in that pic. Perhaps cleaning that up will clear up some space. Side note, if you haven't updated your custom recovery in a long time it may not be a bad time to look into that.

Market Downloader - 800MB mobile, 2.4Gb Wifi, all in background - and no, i didnt download anything from the play store on the go and hardly anything on wifi - havent updated my apps in weeks b/c of missing storage
Android OS + Others - 530MB mobile and a whooping 12GB on Wifi! All in Background too.

If I were in your situation, I would probably just get a clean start. This also would get rid of the nesting problem I mentioned above.
- I would make a backup of my current setup, probably just using Titanium Backup.
- Backup everything I want to keep from my phone to my PC, going through the 0 folders.
- Use fastboot to flash factory images, allowing it to wipe everything in the process. The .bat file should do this automatically.
- Use fastboot to install a recent custom recovery.
- Push the sdcard backup from my PC to my phone.
From here you have a couple options, root and reinstall Titanium backup and restore some of your apps (no system data) or go back into custom ROMs. You could flash AOKP again, or pick a different ROM.
A bit heavy handed, but I think that would be the least time consuming option considering the problem(s).

Yeah I noticed that like half a year ago, had no idea why that happened. At one point I felt like everytime I flashed a new rom a new 0 folder appeared.. How does that happen?

Basically when 4.2 came out, it brought along multi-user functionality. Custom recoveries at the time, when wiping and installing ended up creating the nesting problem. Recoveries then were updated, which doesn't create a bunch of /0 folders (one existing is correct). This was a super common problem about a year ago when 4.2 came to be. There were hundreds of threads about this problem, with more detailed info about what happens, why, and how to fix it. Wiping everything is one of the solutions, and since this isn't your only problem, this would probably be the recommended solution.

I am not sure where you read that a wiping everything isn't possible, but whoever said that is all sorts of wrong. There are multiple ways to wipe things.

Just did what you said and it looks like everything worked! Everything is deleted, I have almost 13 gigs of free space, rooted my phone again and I'll probably install aokp or paranoid in a couple days.
No 0 Folders anymore and I'm sure as hell hoping that my data consumption will be fine now. I'll keep you updated on that in a few weeks again, but thanks for the help!

looks good thanks bud
