Annoying Plurk

I have an app called Plurk ( widget ) on my DHD, but no matter how many times i delet it using root explorer, it is still there. After i delet it, i check using the app manger and it is still ther, so i use the root explorer again and the apk of the app is there again. Why and how to get rid of it?

I used Titanium Backup to remove mine, either freeze the app or delete it.

I tried to delete it, but it keeps comming back. I dont know what is titanium backup. Also the stupid "trends widget" does the same. It is htc's rwitter app ( or something )

Look it up on Android Market. Download & Install. Then use it to forcefully remove the annoying apps like Plurk...

If you have Root access simply delete the .apk file from /system/app/

I could try it, but that Plurk is asia only. Do it does not appere in my market. The trends thing comes with the phone as HTC built in app and can not be downloaded from the market.

Download Titanium Backup, install it then freeze or delete any apps you do not need.
Always back up first with TB then you can reinstate if required.
Your phone will need to be rooted.
Good luck...

Ok guys, looks like i did not make it clear. I dont want or need to back up my phone, and just deleting does not work. The problem is that even though I delete the .apk and even every other file with the name, the apps don't vanish and the .apk file magically comes back to life and exists in my phone once again. So what I ask is if you guys/gals/its know how to get rid of them once and for all?

Which bit of my two posts did you not understand...
May I suggest you do some googling,reading and learn the uses and capabilities of Titanium Backup as it does far more than just back up your mobile.
It will remove any app and that includes system apps.
Used with caution it is a great tool.
•Multiple backups per app (history length can be chosen)
•Zero-click background batch restore
•Encryption of your backups (asymmetric crypto: the passphrase is needed on restore only)
•Multi-user support for some apps (eg: games) with a widget for quick switching!
•Batch verification of your backups
•Dalvik cache cleaner can free up precious internal memory
•App freezer can disable an app (and make it invisible) without un-installing it
•Convert users apps <=> system apps
•Integrate system app updates directly into your ROM to free up even more internal memory
•Migrate some system data (eg: SMS/MMS) across incompatible ROMs
•Ultra fast HyperShell (much faster for almost everything)
•Batch app freezing/defrosting
•Advanced app control (pause/resume apps during backup, instead of stopping them)
•Restore individual apps+data directly from ClockworkMod backups. Supports CWM5+ and most CWM4 backups
•Full support for paid apps that must normally be installed through the Market!
•Market "auto updating" manager, to easily verify, enable or disable auto updates on several apps at once!
•Unlimited, independent scheduled backups (each of which can run 1 to 7 times a week)
•Market Doctor can retrieve or re-create any broken Market links (for your updates to appear in Market again)
•Synchronize all (or some of) your backups to Dropbox
•Retrieve all your backups from Dropbox (in case of lost phone or SD card failure)
•Protect backup against deletion
•Send backup by e-mail
•CSV data export from any app's DB, to e-mail or Google Docs
•Convert app data to/from Gingerbread's faster WAL DB format
•Brand the app with your name

If it keeps coming back then there is an issue with the rom as it should not keep coming back. I have been trying to reproduce your issue and can't. I delete the apk and it is gone. Doest come back no matter how long I wait.

OP - You sure your perm rooted? From the sounds of it I'd say that your still S-ON. An system changes will be restored after a reboot.
If you boot into bootloader what does the top line say?

You dont have to yell. I will try it. Thanks

That maybe part of your problem. Plurk is part of sense. If you remove it then sense will have issues. The aplbis all the sense roms. Only way to safely remove it with issues would be to go senseless

Ah, well that explains it.

Raistlin, thank you very much. Titanium backup got rid of plurk and drends with ease. Then only a quick sweep for 2 file with the explorer and my phone is clean.

A few Pics:

The OP has kindly provided another thread for you to ask questions in and generally post pointless crap like 'thanks', 'downloading!', 'awesome' etc.
This thread should be reserved for bug reports and constructive feedback for the OP.

Known Issues (off the top of my head, so please excuse me if I forget any)
- Gallery will FC when trying to crop an image for a wallpaper if you have Force GPU Rendering on under "Developer Options". To fix this, you can turn Force GPU off or you can use an app such as Zedge or Multipicture Live Wallpaper if you can't bear to turn it off.
- Auto Rotation is quirky. (just disable it, or install https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...rotationlocker and do it manually)
- Face Unlock (Will work if you go to Settings > Security > Lock Automatically > Immediately)
- Shutdown/Reboot hangs (Use Quickboot, works like a charm.)
- SuperUser might not work on initial flash. You may have to reflash http://www.4shared.com/zip/t-6_CgWt/...hi-signed.html
- Hitting the Voice Mail button in the dialer will cause the dialer to FC. (Hold down '1' on the dialer to access the shortcut instead.)
- Stock Camera will rotate 90 degrees from the position the phone is held at automatically (even with auto rotate turned off.) I installed Camera ZOOM FX and it works fine, so if you have a 3rd party camera use that for now as they seem to be working.

For those that had or have the home button issue here id what i did that fixed it:
Before installing flashed superwipe, then flashed. After flashing did factory reset through cwm BEFORE reseting to rom, wiped dalvik and fixed permissions. As soon as i was sure it was completely booted (10mins or so), i logged into play store and downloaded apex launcher and titanium backup. Ran titanium first and unistalled/froze tw launcher and then apex or whatever your bew favorite 4.0 launcher will default. Home worked flawless as well as hitting the search button. I also disabled auto rotate feom drop down right away as a temp fix for the auto rotate bug. I did experience an issue whete a caller said they though i had them on speakerphone when i did not. It sounded like they were in a tunnel. Other than that i did kot experience any other bugs. I forgot to run a log cat during the call. Next time i get a call ill run logcat.

Really? Because I flashed it four times and the only time it worked for me was when I didn't use the superwipe method. I flashed the superuser after I booted the phone and set everything up. It seemed to me it was something to do with either the wipe or when the superuser flash fales. But I dunno.

over in the Q&A section, there seems to be a bug fix where if you turn off the force gpu rendering option in the developer tools, it seems to allow you to set up the wallpaper through gallery, not sure why, but it works

Home and search buttons worked completely fine for me when I manually wiped, superwipe, flash rom, wipe again and fix permissions, then allowed to boot.
Pushing APEX launcher to the /system/app/ automatically fixes the problem for those stubborn phones.
tethering is an issue also, however, someone told me a fix for it:
I messed around and I'm not sure of the exact instructions to do it but it was something like this:
1. Ultracfg>click tethering always on
if you reboot, you will notice your data/service is missing
2. reboot into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik, and fix permissions
3. reboot the phone and it should work
if it does not work try changing it to tethering always off, reboot, change it back to tethering always on, reboot, then reboot into recovery and do the wipes and fixing permission.
Another work around is to flash the 14 quick toggles
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24143163&postcount=82
you don't need to delete the said file because the port is already deodexed, btw i'm not sure if this is already integrated into the new update, but this allows us to reboot and tether safely.
oh and not sure why, but im still on the previous build and my phone reboots normally with the power button.
edit: this is base off his earlier build, so not sure if it applies to his new one.

I tried to do a temporary rotation fix by setting ro.sf.hwrotation=90 in build.prop and while it did fix apps to rotate properly with the orientation of your phone, the touchscreen was all wonked up (i.e. it had shifted 90 degrees as well). took a lot of touch screen guessing to restore my previous setting. if there's a way to modify the touch screen degree to go along with this fix, it could help out.
the bootscreen was pretty messed up after this prop change also.

found another bug: Superuser 3.0 Beta FC's

Home screen/search button fix
I had the same issue until I flashed superuser zip, opened superuser>preferences>check for updates>updated, which gave itself root permission. Then I fixed permissions and rebooted. Upon reboot I also saw a new unlock screen I had not seen before - don't know why - but home screen and search buttons are now working!

Camera rotates off 90 degrees incorrectly even with auto rotate off. I've also tried using the miui camera, bit it goes to a black screen and force closes.

I have been running on this rom since yesterday and the only issue I have had is the screen rotation and it effects the camera. The power button works and reboot as well, it take a bit log off but it boots fast.

my home button works just fine (1st version of the port). bout the flash the 2nd so we'll see what happens.
that time thing was really annoying but I figured how to fix that:
settings, date and time, uncheck automatic time zone and punch it in on your own!
hope it works!

I'm sure this problem is not because of an application.because when I Factory reset or install a new ROM it is good for a while but after 10 minutes the problem is shown ...
When I Insert a Sim Card in the device the screen turn off and on quickly and the network of Sim Card will Unavailble and it goes to Emergency Call Mode ...
What's your Idea?

You mentioned you have flashed many ROMs both custom and original.
Do you use TitaniumBackup to restore? And if so, do you restore data as well?
I would recommend not restoring phone data and when you restore your apps, do a few at a time to see if it is an app causing this.
If you don't use TitaniumBackup, and allow Google to restore, do the same.
You say it starts to happen after several minutes after a fresh flash... I think there is an app that is causing this.
Good luck.

Push Notifications

Hey guys, now that we have the root, let's solve the problem problem of push notification. I' referring to receiving updates when the app is not open and running in the background.
Here is what I have:
Working no matter what:
Gmail
Facebook Messenger
Not getting push notifications if the app isn't open:
Facebook
Hagouts
Skype
Viber
WhatsApp
Fire Phone 4.6.1, rooted. It was the same when it wasn't rooted. It doesn't matter if you use launcher or not. I did hard reset and the issue is still there.
Now, my 4.4.4 custom rom tablet always receives notifications. I would think it's FirePhone issue, if it wasn't for Facebook Messenger, how the hell does it work?

I have 4.6.1 and have No Problem with Push Notifications. Rooted - Xposed - Greenify

+1 for this, can only get the push notifications with amazon launcher, that includes missed calls and texts

Thats Mine

Ok, can you confirm that when you completely CLOSE Hangouts and get a message, it will send you a push notification? When it's running in the background, yes I can receive it too.
What am I doing wrong though? I checked all the options. How did you even get this red sticker? Can you tell what launcher you're using?

Notifications for 3. party apps when they are closed are not working. It doesn't matter what launcher is used. Some apps like tapatalk are not pushing notifications at all. There is also urgent necessity to fix status bar so it can show persistent notifications. I have sent more than dozen emails to amazon tech support urging them to fix notifications in Fire OS (for **** sake, we don't know if phone is in silent mode), and I always received polite response that my input is highly valuable. But I don't expect for them to fix notifications at all because devs screwed notifications intentionally. This ****ed up situation is not a bug, they intentionally blocked 3. party apps.
Sent from my SD4930UR using XDA Forums

I would agree if it wasnt for Gmail and Facebook Messenger. These bashtardos always get notifications no matter what and they are 3rd party apps. Meanwhile, Facebook itself doesnt have it. So there is a way 3rd party apps can get notifications, but HOW?

I don't have issues with push notifications either, you can try factory resetting the device, when I first installed 4.6.1(newest US build) some features were missing and they didn't return until I did a factory reset.

I have the same issue with Whatsapp and Facebook. Email and Facebook messenger are working fine.

Guys, when you say "I have no issues with push notifications" can you be more specific please?
Here's the question:
Close Skype (whatsApp) completely on your Fire phone, not just exit but close it. Now send a message from other device to your Skype (whatsApp) account. Do you get a notification on you Fire Phone? Just say yes or no.
Because me neither, I have no problems with push notifications IF THE APP IS OPEN, the moment you close it, it's gone...

Yes for WhatsApp, Facebook and Tapatalk. I dont use Skype
German Unlocked with latest US bin. Latest GApps. Hangouts, SuperSu, Xposed, Greenify, HDX Modules, Google Now Launcher with GEL Settings [root]

Ok, thanks! so we're divided into two groups. Now we need to figure out what's different. I have US bin, unlocked, 4.6.1.
No xposed and I didn't install latest Gapps. Will try.

Still no luck. Wondering what else can be done? I did hard reset already, it didn't help

How i did it :

Install 4.6.1 German -
Install 4.6.1 US - Wipe reboot
Start Device - kingroot - SuperSu
Again recovery and Wipe (Wipe dont touch /system.. So root is still there After Wipe.

Hey guys, i uninstalled Skype, Facebook and Whatsapp and installed them again. Now notifications are working fine regardless if the apps are totally closed or not.

hydroman, when you say recovery and wipe what do you mean? Simple factory reset from the Settings-Device-Factory Reset?

I have the same issue. I spent 1 month with the amazon custumer service and at the end of the wheel they said:
I wanted to let you know that I've received a response from our technical team, and they unable to correct the issue you described with the notifications not displaying from your apps. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience. Our technicians have suggested the following troubleshooting steps, they would like you to try another factory reset to see if this corrects the issue.
Because a factory reset will remove any content you've downloaded to your device, make sure to back up your personal content and settings using the backup feature on your phone. You'll be able to restore your content and settings and download any Amazon purchases from the Cloud after registering the device again.
Any in-app items may be lost during a factory reset. Please check with the app developer for more details on their in-app policies before completing a factory reset. If you have Parental Controls enabled on your phone prior to the factory reset, you will need to turn them back on once the device is re-registered.
To factory reset your Fire phone:
1. Swipe down from the top of the screen to open Quick Actions, and then tap Settings.
2. Tap Device, and then tap Factory reset your phone.
3. Tap Reset, and then tap OK to confirm

Permissions get reset constantly for apps

Permissions get reset constantly for apps, I think I read it somewhere that anytime the Launcher updates that all the app permissions for apps on my phone reset. Is there anyway to fix this?
I am sick and tired of allowing things to get permissions on my phone over and over again. I never had this issue on my Nexus 6.

Stock HTC US ROM, and stock launcher.
The permissions reset all the time, and I have one friend that is on sprint on their ROM (I use the US unlocked ROM) and he has the same issue. where he will set the permissions to allow, and then out of nowhere the permissions reset on him.
Really irritates me with the google opinion rewards app, because I dont get any surveys since the app keeps losing the location permission.

i am sorry... not on stock to say so... you aren't rooted are you?
did you try giving permissions manually by going to settings- app ?

yep, I went to the application manager and even set them there and after a day or few hours or a reset of the phone it will lose them.
Yes I am rooted.

thats odd... doesn't happen with me i have to set permissions if required only at the first time i run a app not always...
is it every app you get this permission or certain apps? also when it requests for permission are you ticking the box which states don't ask again?

any app that asks for permission the first time you open it is doing it, and it seems like it is almost random when it will ask for permission again. Like I right now I just opened my camera app and it asked for location permission again.
I dont see a box that says dont ask again if I tell it "allow"

Nope, just an allow and deny option, nothing else.
That must be specific to your ROM or something.

don't think so its specific to rom... as i had used multiple roms and every rom gives me a permission option with that option as shared in ss

I have the same issue and it's really irritating. I'm on the stock unlocked version.
I didn't think it was the launcher update that causes it. I suspected it was the fact that I use adopted storage and when I reboot my phone, I noticed that occasionally some app icons appear unavailable with the "X" icon. When that happens, I feel like that's when all the permissions get reset (and lost)

tried alternative launcher to see? as i am not stock my result won't help much as there are few more users who is reporting this permission being reset on reboot....

Joining the boat here. My app permissions also get reset every now and then. It only happens after a reset of the phone. I always turn the phone off at night, next morning all permissions are gone. It doesn't happen every morning, just sometimes.
I'm on a completely stock phone, never tinkered with root and s-off etc. It happened on both the first software version it came with, and the current latest software from HTC.
I have also set my external SD-card to be seen as internal storage. Is that the culprit?

I have had the loss of permissions problem after restart for a while. It has persisted across multiple hard resets, and even multiple devices! I am working on a theory. For anyone here who has had this issue, did you encrypt your device? I'm trying to find a common thread, as clearly every device hasn't had this issue, but many have. Any input is appreciated.
Now I also can't even change the permissions back, as it claims I have a screen overlay. Not only do I not, but disabling screen overlay for all apps still results in that error.

PS: I'm on an M9. I hesitate to upgrade to the 10 if this is an HTC-wide issue. It has been a nightmare for me.

Why not use appopsxposed? Works great for me and never resets ?

I surely have my device encrypted.
What's appopsxposed?

What carrier version? Or are you unlocked?
If it's not encryption, I'm puzzled what other specifics could be causing this. Is anyone else using any other settings that could be somewhat atypical? How about launchers? Is everyone using a third-party launcher perhaps?

I'm on the stock non-carrier-locked software. Not rooted. Not s-off, nothing. HTC sense launcher.

Did you ever wipe the partition cache?

No. I did do a double factory reset 1 week ago, cause my device had become very slow.
