Ask in that thread, make sure to note what rom you are using etc

Already posted there. But opened new thread so that more people can help me. My phone details are
PDA I9000XWKF3
PHONE I9000DDKE4
CSC I9000DDKF3
I have rooted my phone n replaced livewallpapers.apk with given in that thread under system/apps taking backup of original file. But now i m not able to set live wallpapers. So pls help me if someone is having any solution. Or i have to do factory rest. Does it solve the problem? And does factory reset erase all the data on main memory n will i have to install all aps again?
Thanks in advance.

Ok. I think I should explain in depth what I have done.
I want Water Live Wallpaper of Galaxy S and for that I found a thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161063.
But first I connected to Samsung Kies 2.0 and updted my phone to
PDA I9000XWKF3
PHONE I9000DDKE4
CSC I9000DDKF3
and according to that thread, I need to root my phone. So I flashed kernal to GT-I9100_XWKF3_insecure and rooted my phone using odin method. After root, I again flashed kernal to GT-I9100_XWKF3_original as found in one of the thread. After that I followed the method of replacing livewallpapers.apk as mentioned in above thread. But after that, there is no option for live wallpaper selection in Wall paper option. I thought that factory reset will solve the problem so I done factory reset (2 times) but still I am not having option of Live Wallpaper. Now pls somebody help n let me know what would be the problem? Is it the update which I done using Kies? Coz I think after factory reset, everything should be as defaulted. Or is thare any other way to enable live wallpaper? I also downloaded some live wallpaper from market n they got successfully installed but didnt find Live Wallpaper option.

Allshare Cast dongle s/w update

Has anyone successfully disabled this thing? I really don't need it and don't want to download it as it's 30mb, and want it removed from my apps in the play store.
Would be nice for there to be a 'hide update' feature.

:good: I agree

I have until I decide to use it. However, you need root to disable, freeze, uninstall the app.

Yes, do you happen to know what the app refers itself as? I've froze all allcast files but this thing still shows up.

Thanx ! Found those files, but using ASTRO file manager I seem not to be able to delete those files ...
My Galaxy SIII is unrooted, could that perhaps be the problem?

If u eant it to be disabled I can probably help u with that.
Just go to settings---->applications manager-----> select the app u want to disable...
Remeber first clear cache, then clear data, force stop, disable, or uninstall
Whichever the option is listed

Thanks for that, but this particular thing does not let itself become disabled, the option is greyed-out. Here and on other sites I read that indeed the only way to have it NOT trun up in Google Play constantly is to remove the FWUpgrade.apk.
But I am afraid I cannot do that without root-access, unless someone has a work-around?

Yea ull need root. It's easy to root, just flash an already rooted stock Rom with Odin.

No root (unrooted) = no way to disable. There is no other way around it. This is true of several third party apps on stock ROM.

I'm having the Allshare Cast dongle issue. I want to get rid of it, but can't. Is there now a solution?
My phone (Mega 6.3) IS rooted, running MegaFireMj2V7X, and yet I'm still unable to do anything with "FWUpgrade.apk" in /system/app dir.
Any help would be gratefully received, thanks.

thanks for this. worked on my note3 w/4.4.2. root stock TW. you do need root and must mount /system RW to delete. joy!

[FIXED] "Your Device Isn't Compatible with This Version"

IT IS WORKING NOW.
Quick background. I have the SPH-L900, but I am on Sprint's MVNO Ting. Before I activated it, I rooted it and downloaded several apps. Some of the apps are Paid apps, the others are free. During activation Ting asked if they could do a factory reset and I said yes. I never lost root, but lost all my personal information and my apps. Now the apps that I had successfully downloaded before, I cannot download now.
I do have Rom Manager Premium and Rom Toolbox Pro, if that will help solve my problem.
Be clear, because I am new to all this.
Oh, I did send an E-Mail to Cloud.TV for HD Widgets, but didn't get a reply.(2 days) Since I did pay, I hoped they would solve the problem for their app and maybe I could use that information to fix the rest.
Please help

Re: [Q] "Your Device Isn't Compatible with This Version"
I had the same problem and it turned out to be the dpi... make sure your build.prop has 320 dpi in both parts and clear cache
after you do this and install your apps you can revert to whatever dpi you want

It didn't work. I made sure the DPI is 320. (Yes, I had changed it to 280) I then used ROM Toolbox to wipe both caches. Rebooted and still got the error on the Play Store.

It is working now. The only thing I did, after trying everything in search, plus what reinaldistic suggested is to go to Settings and then to System Update. Then asking for an update for every choice they gave me.
I do not know if that is what worked or it was something else.

[Q] stock settings apk missing

So I recently rooted my Note 2 anddddd a few days after playing around with it (without a backup...i know...dumb me.) I am missing the settings apk so, in turn, I can't access my settings. Any one know how I can fix?
Thanks!

Backup your data, full wipe, reflash a stock rom. Unless someone can get you a stock titaniumbackup for the apk (which I dont even know is possible) you are out of luck I believe.
Another thing to check is to open up a stock rom's system/app folder on your computer and find the settings apk, maybe you can copy and past it into your directory with a file manager (es file manager if you need one). I've got nothing better to do right now so I will try it.
Edit: Too many settings apks. You've got to find the missing one

The second options should do it...:thumbup:

Thanks guys. Went with the first option. My next root run will come with many backups. Thanks!

Upgrade recovery using LG suite tool on PC or try reinstalling the v50020d update again! I'm getting google play services stopped, but nothing major! I guess it's something with the version services 5.0!

U can try to reinstall the latest update available for your tablet using LG Suite by clicking update even if no new updates are available I think!
U have the Verizon lte one! I don't know what is the latest firmware for yours, but it should work normally! I don't think you'll lose any files if u don't factory reset, but I'm not sure about this! You'll lose root if you were rooted when u upgrade recovery using LG Suite!
If u are rooted, use titanium backup for backup and easy restore.
And if u have root working for your tablet, then flash a custom recovery if u don't have one and find the latest uploaded LG official KitKat firmware in the development sections and flash it!

Does it happen when you are using a chromecast? When I use play music through the chromecast I was having a similar problem. I am on 4.4.2 with a v500

If this starts to occur and you recently did an upgrade recovery, you should have also done a factory reset after wards. Having recently upgrade recoveried in the LG Tool, I had a nasty loop of system ui has failed that I could only fix by also factory resetting the device.
Incidentally this does seem to occasionally still occur when I use the physical volume buttons with my chromecast.

I have this using chromcast. I have found an easy fix! Just say "ok google "(if u have enbaled it everywhere) and it fixes it!
