[Q] Titanium BACKup

i already rooted my baby and titanium isnt working well. i backed up all the apps and the unninstaled few. but i cant reinstall them again. titanium is stuck on restoring --forever.. debuging swith on and as i said rooted...
i reinstaled TB few times..restarted phone..etc.. nothing helps

It's somewhere in here, it states to restore 1 at a time works.

Switch the app processing mode (under preferences) to classic. It's not ideal but it works.

Ya, that's what I read in another thread, with the same question.

i did it without any effect..now cant even unninstall anything with TB.
all i did was a root. and i wanted back up my stuff (apps) and remove some that i wont use.
i can backup - but not freeze or unninstal now-
EDIT: --|>Dont mind me --i found it.. You have to keep switching between the modes at all the time... anoying but at least working

Have you notified the developer?

It works absolutely fine for me. It might be worth running root checker from the market.

This. If anyone is having issues then follow this. I'm not sure either but it does work.

I had this problem yesterday upon flashing 4.0.2. The way I fixed it was by updating its bootloader to the latest OTA one.

No need to change modes. TN has been updated for ICS and works 100% now with the Galaxy Nexus

Unable to install apk?

Downloaded an apk to the root of my sdcard. When I click to install it via ES File Explorer, I can't click the "Install" button but the "Cancel" button works. Any help?

The two Samsung Apps you reference are system app that need to be pushed to the system/apps folder... Use root explorer and paste them into that folder then reboot. Yay...

Not necessarily true... I side loaded both these apps just fine in EsFile Explorer. Try going into recovery and fixing permisions and clear cache/dalvik, bet you already have install from unknown sources checked, but double check just in case. But in the later, it would prompt for you to change it when attempting to install :/

No.. Actually good catch... I misunderstood the app answer and was thinking about system apps. But the samsung Apps is a download-able one. Sorry to OP...

Just tried fixing permissions and wiping cache/dalvik. No dice...still won't let me press the "Install" button. Guess I'll try loading them to system/apps but this is bugging me.

Are you using any kind of brightness adjusting app like Lux or Screen Filter? I found that after disabling Lux, I was able to install the apk fine. Then I re-enabled Lux after.

thx man. Strage thing is that rootexplorer cant instal apk´s with enabled screen filter but with es explorer works both (enablade and disabled Scr Filter). btw i have a nexus 4 with 4.2.2

Same problem with Lux and Root Browser. Had to disable Lux and kill the process with System Panel, then reenable it. Also on a Nexus 4 (this was just the thread I found with a Google serach). Is this a bug with Lux or Root Browser?

It's a known bug with lux

Unable to install any apk
I have the same problem, have tried to install any apk but the "install" button cannot be clicked. Before i installed Battery Doctor app, still able to install any apk. yes there is an option to put brigthness to auto adjust, is it the cause of problem?
another thing (OOT), my wifi always turn off for no reason, what is the suggestion?
N7000, ICS stock rom and kernel, CWM rooted
Thanks...

Yes, install button going disabled is a bug in android systems, not just Lux, or because of any other brightness reducer app!
If u have any brightness reducer app, it results in disabling the install button for installing any saved app(apps from playstore install without any problem).
Disabling this app will enable the "install" button. :thumbup:

Swype

Swype is not working on GN with 4.1.2 after the update to 1.3.
Is it just me or others are experiencing the same?

It's a known problem.
The solution so far is turn off any apps like lightflow in settings > accessibility.

Working for me just fine.

To fix it you need either go to the Settings / Accessibility - and then turn off all apps that is listed under Services (like LightFlow for example).
Or disable the stock Android Keyboard. Just go to the Apps / All / Android Keyboard - and disable it, also force stop it. Then it is important to restart your phone.
Now you will have Swype selected and working as you main keyboard.

I don't like any of the new themes, an improvement over the old ugly swype but I think I will stick with my old themed swype for now.

anyone has the old .apk version of Swype???

In this manner I am currently able to run both Lightflow and Swype.

Note II US Sprint NFC Screen off Mod request

Can someone please mod the NFC.apk for the NOTE II US Sprint to allow screen off NFC to function?
Its working on the S3 and so much more convenient. I found a mod for the Note II but it does not work screen off only at the lock screen.
the NFC.apk is attached.

I'm just getting started with NFC tags, and i agree that this would be REALLY useful. Anyone have the know-how to make this happen?

it is so insanely inconvenient to have to turn the stinking phone on to use tags that I am at the point where if I found instructions I might try and make a go of making the changes myself

This would be nice to have. Hopefully someone can help.

Jelly Bomb has this built in. I tried pulling the Nfc.apk from the 10.20 build and putting it on my own deodexed LJC rom but it didn't allow nfc with the screen off.

Bump!
I need this for cm10 in my note 2. Anyone?

Download xposedintaller.apk from this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401 and install. Launch the Xposed Installer and click on "Install/Update". Reboot.
Then go to this website http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/forums/xposed_framework_mods/ and download nfc lockscreen off enabler. Rename .zip to .apk and install. When you get a notification about enabling the modification (after the APK is installed), tap that notification, and enable the plugin by ticking the box. Reboot and enjoy!
Check out the other mods from the villain site and I highly recommend downloading xposed app settings. Enables you to change dpi of any single app + tablet mode! Just remember to change .zip to .apk and install it.

Thanks! This worked to allow nfc on lock screen but not while screen is off. Still a big help though.
As for per app dpi mod, I'm actually running paranoid android, but thanks!
Edit: never mind, got it working while screen is off completely! Thank you so so much!

Will this work with stock rom? I tried installing the xposed framework, nfc module, reboot, but doesn't read NFC will locked or completely off.

negative. exposed nfc module does NOT work on the Sprint Note II

Isn't nfc being disabled while screen off a security feature?

True, but when rooted, you still have control of what apps you install. This mod would expose you to random strangers trying to steal your data.
Rooting is like looking a hole in your firewall and putting a gate up. This is like telling the firewall altogether.
But hey to each their own
swyped all these spelling errors from my galaxy note 2

the only relevant security for NFC is that you have to be within 1 INCH (maybe 1.5" if you REALLY line it up right)
if your close enough to be a threat to my security with NFC your also close enough for me to be a very relevant and serious threat to your physical safety as I "investigate" why your lining a phone up within 1 inch of my phone in my pocket.
SO security? non issue. period.
and anyway in the future it should not be hard for dev's to enable whitelisting so only "certain things" can be done without user interaction.

this was an issue with cards before the feature even came to the phones... you never had to turn on your nfc debit card, why don't THEY have security issues?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

because THE RANGE IS ONE INCH
if your close enough to scan it that by definition means you have physical possession of it which means security is irrelevant.
this is not like bluetooth that you can pump up the power and fine tune a receiver and do it from 30ft away. or even 10ft.
1 inch. less distance than the length of your pinky finger.
again if they are that close there are OTHER issues at play folks hehehe

I installed AT&t's visual voice mail APK no problems..

Late reply, but the people facing this issue might benefit from this.
Seems it was an issue because of trying to install apk with 'night filter' on. Android disables app install while any screen dimming app is on due to security reasons.
ps: still waiting for cm lol
