unable to install apps - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, hope somebody could help me to install apps on my note 2, rooted, but i use stock rom 4.1.1 android version...my son accidentally uninstalled my facebook apps and now i am unable to install it back. Everytime i tried it always says "insufficient memory", currently i have 8.65 GB free on my internal with a total size of 10.36GB usable space..i tried deleting the facebook in the delvak cache but still no go...I am unable to update the built in apps since i rooted my note 2..pls help..

Hi,
have you tried to wipe cache? not only the dalvik cache? This will force android to recreate his cache (oh and btw i dont know if your note 2 is concerned by the sudden death but you should update to 4.1.2)

thanks

clear cache and data, reboot twice, see if it works
if it does'nt try fixing permissions,
if all else fails, odin never does
try to make it a habit to flash back to stock rom first before flashing another custom rom. this will likely remove or minimize chances of bootloops or problems with flashing. been doing this for so many times and i never experience any problem in flashing roms.
flash rom
flash gapps
wipe data factory reset
wipe cache
wipe davik cache
reboot
hey hey HEY xDD

bootloop with any rom

I have a serious problem guys...I flashed last version of paranoidandroid but since my phone was too slow I tried to reflash last version but it was slow again. Then I tried to restore a previous backup but it restored it only in 60 seconds and indeed the rom didn't boot (stuck on google logo). After that any rom I try to install does not boot, I tried previous versions of paranoid and also google stock image (deodexed and rooted). I don't know what to do, but I cannot wipe the whole sd card because I have some important data I cannot afford to loose...please help me guys I'm desperate.
I know the solution to this problem is always, wipe everything with the toolkit and flash google image, but I have some sensible data I cannot loose. Moreover I don't own a microsoft computer anymore so I wouldn't be able to use the toolkit. Is there anything else I can try?
Hmmm.. did you dirty flashed? :/ can you try again with wiping system, factory reset and cache and dalvik ... do you have any other ROM in your phone the one you had before?? try installing that again with wiping everything nd give it atleast 10 mins to start up i remember my phone stared really late with PA .. i know i might not be of that much help but i'm spitballin' here

Yes I tried to wipe everything 20 times, and I tried a couple of versions of PA and the stock deodexed rom which is all what I had on my phone, and nothing worked. I'll try to leave the phone for 10 minutes and see if it finally boots up. Cheers mate

Are you using the most up to date version of TWRP or CWM when you flash your ROMs?

Try to update your recovery to latest version as older recovery versions could face problems related to new file system structure.

[Q] System UIDs Inconsistent

I recently flashed the CM 10.1 nightly and I've gotten the message "UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe...." Is there any other way besides wiping the data partition?

I'm another guy. I tried wipe data, factory reset, format data, all of them and anyone solved the problem.
Anyother with this? Has someone tried to fix it?
only thing i can thing of at this moment is unfortunately unroot and reroot and start over your better of with a clean partition/system have you tried factory reset in your recovery ??? then wipe cache/dalvik and then try flashing a ROM again then fixing permissions ???
Probably the cleanest solution HERE

[Q] PA3+ Home and apps not working

My boyfriend's Gnex was having problems so I told him to update his phone. We were both using Rufdroid and since I wanted to try a new rom with 4.3 OS I flashed my phone first. I went quite nicely and I'm loving PA3+ right now. Problem is when my bf flashed his gnex following the same steps I did with mine, his home soft key and most apps aren't working. he tried to reflash the rom and reinstall the apps but it's still the same. how can I fix this??
Did he dirty flashed the ROM?

What he meant was did he not do a factory reset, clear cache and clear dalvik when he flashed the ROM?
You have to do a factory reset which deletes the previous OS (including all your apps) then only flash PA3+.
Factory Reset ALONG with SYSTEM wipe
he did all that

System wipe is wasted step. The install script formats the /system partition for you.
Factory reset alone is sufficient for a new ROM flash.

Got the problem solved. I changed the recovery from TWRP to CWM and reflashed the rom. There was an error during the installation, but now it's working great.
Anyway, thanks for your help. :good:

Galaxy Note II Freezing up occasionally

Can anyone let me know the best way I can locate the cause of my note 2 freezing up occasionally so I know what I need to do to remedy it?
Try going into recovery and wiping the cache and Dalvik cache
Don't do a system wipe.

Hey GR,
I did attempt this previously see if this helps but no luck :-/
Any other suggestions?
Factory reset
or
You could try and re-flash stock ROM with ODIN.

I was hoping Factory Reset wasn't gonna be needed if I can locate the culprit (If its an app that is).
I have got it rooted so I can flash the rom I have on it again or a different one. I currently have Ditto Note 3 installed v3.2.1
I am thinking you are about to experience sudden death, where the memory fails. It's what happened to mine before it died
But try re-flashing first. Use latest stock for your phone. Check Sammobile for the latest

Oh I hope its not a memory failure :-/
I'll try a re-flash first after backing up and go from there.
Thanks GR.
