[Q]uninstalling apps is very slow on any rom - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to find out if anyone else already experienced the same issue than me. When I'm uninstalling an app via the system app manager, it takes more than a minute to uninstall it (even small apps - few kb). This happens on every rom or kernel. I formatted my sd-card and removed it as well without success... I have no clue what to do or what causes this problem. I hope ther is someone who can assist. Would be great... thx in advance....

Is that 3rd-party app or you mean Settings-Applications?

I mean settings-apps...
But I tried 3rd party apps as well just to be sure... w/o success

So I returned to Stock Firmware and tried again to uninstall apps ... it seems that on stock rom everything is working fine ... I could uninstall them very fast ... it took just one or two seconds to uninstall an app.... But when I turned back to a custom rom ... the issue returned back ... that's a little strange ... what can I do ... now...???

To be honest, I am out of ideas. Which custom ROMs are you trying?

I used a lot FXP CM10... ultimate hd... lxp cm10.1 & 10.2 and others... lupus kernel, fxp kernel etc... as soon as Im using a custom rom, I get this speed problem...

[Q] Cyanogen Mod Problems...?

I'm having some problems with cyanogen mod, and this deals with all versions. I cannot install a single app without it force closing on launch, and I cannot get Gapps back without it causing a boot loop.
Am I missing something? I don't have these problems with other ROMS but I really want to give cyanogen a chance. Someone help! Lol.
Now titanium backup works. I just kept opening it and force closing it. But everything else still does not work. I think its time to smoke and dig on my phone.
Pointers please!
Have you tried fixing permissions in rom manager?

I was having the same problems with the newer versions of cyanogen. I just went back to a stock 2.2, re-rooted, then did a complete wipe and install and haven't had a problem since.

[Q] Help with Market

Hello,
I recently installed [ROM]22-01-2012|LC ICS 4.0.3 - 1.0.beta4 | AOSP + CM + COMMUNITY on my Desire HD.
For the first day I had no issues and was loving it, however now I have an issue I can't quite figure out. I can browse the Market but anything I try to installed gets a 404 error. I have cleared the app cache and data and even wiped the Dalvik cache but still get this error.
I haven't flashed GAPPS yet not sure if I should or which version. ANyone else have this and know how to fix it?
Thanks for your time!

Build Version 3.4.4
Try downloading market.apk from the web and replace the existing one with that.

Thanks I have tried that and I get the same error. I have tried to push from my PC through the market, using the market itself and through boat browser all generating the same error.
I just reflashed the ROM as it was working but still getting that error.

I have tried to use enabler but it has changed nothing. I find it odd that I have no difficulty browsing the market, it's just the installs that fail. I have tried to install a younger version as well but Titanium Backup doesn't seem to want to remove it. I appreciate your help thus far!
Well not sure if was the enable r or what, but one thing I hadn't tried was to update an app, and that worked! After that I was able to install fresh apps. Weird. Anyway it's all good, mods can lock this thread and I appreciate your help!

Hi, i have rooted it that way too. And mine teethering works.
Sorry there must be another Problem. not rooting itselve
My tethering works too. Just used it to download a massive 1.5gb file over 4G.

Sorry for the noob question but what's "nightly"?
Oops my bad. Thought you mentioned that you flashed the custom ROM. The nightlies are of the custom ROM currently being developed by arco68, CM10.1.
Referring to the this post in first version there was some wifi issues, i guessed also in second.
Any other have save problem?
I have to repair my phone? :crying:

The link you pasted is for rooting. The nightlies is a cm10.1 custom rom thats being updated 'nightly' or atleast once a day. Your problem however is based on your firmware and not because of root access. Try to flash to CM10.1 (26-08-2013 version) and see of your problem still occurs.
You can find it over at the 'GS4 mini Android development' section. (sorry cant link you atm because of xda app.)

ok, I understand the difference between my rooted stock rom and the CM, what I'd like to know is if I flash stock not rooted rom to trying tethering I lose everything?
Then can I return to this rooted version?
Thanks...

I'm not sure If you will lose data. Since I don't know if it'll format the cache /data folder and dalvik in the process.
If I for instance update my CM to a newer CM i will not lose my personal data (I do that through CWM recovery without wiping cache or dalvik), not sure if thats the same for stock to stock flashing (which you do through odin), but I believe you're safe.
Last but not least you can always flash back to the prerooted stock rom If ofc you have the firmware (with backup) or do the rooting process yourself which is fairly easy.
Or like whosat mentioned before, flash to cm10.1 (which imho is better than Samsung stock roms).

I see now, perhaps mentioning debloating in your first post would be great!
The AllShare apps is the cause of your problem, like most AllShare plugins it uses the sharing functions of the phone like Wifi tethering and the other Samsung connectivities of which most of them is considered bloatware. Removing them on stock firmware will cause some programs to not work propertly as the system still thinks the application is installed (integrated into os) while you've deleted the system/app apk from your device.

Many thanks for this input, i'm trying to restore that 2 app with ES file manager but with no fortune:

I know this is the most secure way but not the fastest flash, root, remove (and i don't know if every set and every data stay in its own place).
So if someone can spend 2 minutes for me i'll be very graceful :angel:
Solved!
re-flashed stock rom, re-rooted, re-debloated (this time keeping Allshare apps ).
What a mess...

GJ, that was the only way im afraid. Simply reinstalling system apps wont do the job. Good that eventually things worked out well for you.

I WAS WRONG!
Now i controlled every step and the guilty is the rooting procedure:
flashing stock rom -> ok
flashing rootkit -> ko
nothing else in the middle.
How it's possible this is a only mine problem?
Finally (after tens of attempts) i understood:
the smoked gun is in the right hand of avast (its firewall), even using white list method and (obviusly) not blocking any system app.
Is this a notorius fact?

Which rom are you using?
If rooted then i would advice to clean dalvic cache and install the rom again.
Then install whatsapp and avoid restoring backup. Once you have whatsapp running u can restore backup. Also check for .nomedia files and delete if any

Camera FC and Other Apps FC

Hi all, I'm currently having issues with almost any AOKP ROM I am downloading. So far I've run PAC MAN, SOKP, and Google Play Edition ROMS and have run into the same issues across them all, so I am starting to think it was the way I've rooted my phone or a setting that I have made. My camera app keeps closing with "Unfortunately, Camera has stopped". Other apps randomly FC as well. Apps like Snapchat work, but not while using the front camera. I downloaded Google Camera and that app still FCs before I can use it, just like the stock cameras.
I am using a Samsung Galaxy S4 for T-Mobile. I rooted using ODIN, using CWM via Rom Manager app. My KNOX settings are 0x1. Does anybody know how to fix this? I did full wipes between each ROM, and this has been happening ever since I installed a custom ROM. Maybe some settings in CWM?
I have tried looking up the issue myself, but I have not yet found a solution to the issue. Also, I am a noob still, therefore please forgive me if this is a redundant question or if I ask you for further explanation. Thank you, please help me

I tried rebooting into recovery via Rom Manager, it doesn't even do anything once I click reboot. And so I ran fix permissions from Rom Manager and rebooted, still nothing. Would anybody happen to know the default mounts? Maybe it has something to do with those? Again, I'm a noob so I have no idea. I try to boot into recovery by holding down volume up + power + home key, and nothing happens. I've also tried booting holding down just volume up + power, still nothing. Maybe I have to do a complete re-root/reset of my phone? I downloaded a TW based ROM as opposed to AOKP, but I can't even get into recovery at this point. Is it a SU issue? Please help
Did you happen to use GooManager?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Use GooManager to see if you can get into recovery, if it doesn't work see if you can get into download mode and reflash firmware with Odin
