[Q] Bluetooth file transfer application problem: Keeps Installing update - Nexus One General

Hi All,
I had installed Bluetooth file transfer, moved the app to SD card using the android 2.2 A2SD capability for the application and enabled automatic application.
Today morning, I saw that there was a notification that an update was installing itself for the Bluetooth File transfer app. I clicked on it and it took me to the market page. I didnt think it was a big deal and left it alone.
However, it has been in the same status for about 12-13 hours and I noticed that my phone was considerably slower than usual and was also losing battery rapidly.
I checked the apps running and saw that BTF app was still in the installing stage. So I restarted the phone. Still the same status. I uninstalled the application, in the hope that it would be gone now, but still when I go to the markets>download page, I can see that the application is still trying to install itself.
My phone is still a little bit slow I think. Please help me out with the issue. How do I uninstall the app totally and make sure that it is not slowing / degrading my phone's performance.
Thanks
Sankar

go into settings, apps, all, android market.
Force stop and erase data and cache.
It should work

Thanks for that.
I will try that.

That worked. Many thanks again.

I updated from RC33 to 1.51 everything craches

hi,
i have just used jf updater to update to 1.51 (both the radio and the rom) the update process went smooth with no errors....
however after the restart many applications crash and force close including core applications such as acore, gmail, gm, ... etc
the phone does not seem to be stable anymore, it does not sync often.
any help?
had the same problem today... i just reformatted, re-rooted, and reflashed everything. all solutions ended no where. so hopefully someone has a better solution here.
just try a backup then wipe and see if it fixes it
same here, i also did apps2sd at the same time, and i thought apps2sd was the reason for the **** up, so i just wiped and now apps are running from my phone and everyhthing seems to work normally. i'm still not sure what caused it...
going through the whole rooting and apps2sd process all over again????
same here crash, crash, crash.. lol apps to sd 1.51 doing a wipe now ugh
If it helps anyone here, I recently upgraded fine from RC33 to 1.51 HOWEVER I did NOT use app2sd program. I did mine originally using Lucids script method. Which on RC33 was a script that would copy the data and then the cache over to the SD. Then after I upgraded to 1.51 everything worked fine and normal, no hassle.
So my suggestion is this, have EVERYTHING run off the phones memory, Then use lucids script, a alternate way to apps on sd. Then see if everything works fine after you moved it over, also turn on usb debugging, fixed my apps that needed root access.
im also having the same problem after updating to jf 1.5.1 can anyone confirm if they are still having probs after wiping and using apps to sd? did using lucids script instead work? i just dont wanna go through the hassle of wiping and not know which one to use so my apps can stop randomly force closing.
It seems that you all are upgrading from an old version of a2sd to a newer better version of a2sd, many apps don't work correctly unless they are reinstalled when you changed builds due to them not being registered correctly
I would reccomend backing up your apps and then wiping your system/sd folder before you flash to a major upgraded build.
wipe then update then wipe again.
Then boot into your new updated build. Install a few apps then use you prefered a2sd method and verify with the a2sp apk located in the development section that everything worked right.
If the a2sd apk says that tou need to prepare your card for a2sd, you may noy done it right. However if you use lucidrems method, itmay not be compatable.
Check the system/app folder and see what's in it Same with data/app. If the few programs you installed are not there then yay your a2sd is working check system/sd/app to verify.
Ill help out when I can, pm me or ask your questions here. Ill be monitoring this thread.
Good luck
I wiped my phone and installed everything again...everthing was fine until I rebooted my phone and upon start up toggle settings force closed and open home aswell. Same problem I had before....so far nothing else has attempted to force close but I'm guessing I didn't solve the problem and await for it to start crashing like it did before. Sorry I'm still new at this stuff so bare with me...
Toggle settings WILL crash, You need to uninstall that one and redownload the "Cupcake" version of it. That will fix that one.
Now that your 1.51 You need apps that work with cupcake. =)
I do have. The cupcake version....all my apps rondomly just keep crashing....I either hit wait or just force close it
I have also been experiencing force closing issues. The weird part is that I dont have the apps to sd installed on my phone. My phone lags sooo much now, especially in the market and even worse in the browser. Sometimes I wait up to 50 seconds before the browser starts up. Everything is just blank for the time. I get force closes randomly for maps, IM, browser and cupcake toggle settings before I uninstalled. Also, when I exit anything with my home button, it goes to my homescreen but takes a good 10-15 seconds to load my apps on the screen. It just freezes.
Since I've had the phone, Ive already wiped 5 or 6 times. I am so over wiping and reinstalling all my apps and putting everything where I like it. Anyone have any ideas? Please???
AH! That issue I know about, I just recently upgraded from my 2 GB Kingston to a 4GB Sandisk. The Sandisk seems to be a faster card. I know the kingston was a slower one, which lagged behind giving me ALOT of the wait/force close ones. This was due to the speed of the memory card kinda choking out I would say. I always hit wait which did the trick. But when I had alot going on, lag sucked. I dont get it very often now, which says the SD is faster. But this might be the cause of your issues too?

Is anyone else having this issue? I'm going crazy with all of the crashing and waiting. Sorry to be impatient.
Like I said, I did till I changed out my SD card.

I forgot to mention that I have a 8gb 6 class already in place.
I also have an 8gig class 6 card so that can't be it.
so, iam still having force close issues on many applications. also it seems that the phone is very slow now.
any thoughts?

[Q] App settings being reset

I've had my HTC Aria for about 2 weeks now and I have constantly been switching between Liberated and CM roms trying to solve my problem. I'm experiencing trouble with mainly GPS apps or any apps that require downloading to SD. I've switched between CoPilot and Sygic because of this. GPS apps once installed and set up (added favourites,edited settings, etc), keep reverting back to its initial state when you first install it (where it asks to activate, etc) and apps that download keep downloading those files over and over again even if it says its completed. Any idea what could be causing this problem? It's quite annoying especially with GPS apps not saving my favourites.
I was having the same problems until I realized its because I was moving the apps to SD. Try moving them back to the phone. It worked for me. This doesnt happen with all my apps, but the ones it did happen to I moved back to the phone and all these problems went away.
I'm not too sure if I can do that (or know how to). I havn't touched moving apps yet. and my SD card doesn't have ext2/3 for a2sd to be activated. =\

[Q] stop zune from pushing apps

Does anyone know how to stop Zune/Market place from pushing apps back to the phone?
I have a bad app or 2 (not sure which one(s)) that cause my phone not to charge (and other wierd behavior). When I factory reset all is well. Then when I plug it into my computer Zune pushes all the apps back.
Does anyone know how to stop that?
No clue. I'd try calling Zune support, since the reason it's getting re-installed is because you downloaded it though the Zune software and it currently has no app management system. Are you sure it's an app? No marketplace apps should be capable of affecting the OS/phone itself.
While I'm not 100% certain it's an app that is doing it the symptoms make me think it is.
The first time I had this issue, I had downloaded seveal apps at once and they all say they installed, however none of them showed up as installed apps on the phone. Any app I installed after that didn't show either. I contined to use the phone with that issue until randomly it's woudn't take a charge or at least it was very finicky about taking the charge.
I then factory reset it and the charging problem went away. I used the phone for a while with no issues and installed several new/old apps. Then I plugged it into my computer to charge and Zune pushed ALL of my purchased apps out and a few weeks later the problem returned. Again I factory reset and all was well.
Today I plugged it into Zune and again all of my old apps were sent to the phone - no symptons yet, but my hopes aren't high.
App management absolutely should have been in Zune since day 1. The way apps are currently handled in the software is really frustrating.
app management is the only thing that is keeping zune from being better then itunes for syncing. I know people say oh android you have full access but i hated all the file/folders i like easy lol. Hopefully app management is in a update coming really soon

+1 I really don't like how Zune works with syncing and app management. I've used iTunes on my Wife's phone and although it's PAINFULLY SLOW, it does use a nice layout, and apps are easy to add or remove. Syncs take FOREVER on iTunes...
I'm hoping for a Major Rewrite of Zune. Keep the cool stuff, but fix the issues finally. We need better Sync/Backup and we need to be able to select specific items to add or remove. I don't even mind if it's all done on the "Cloud", just get it done.

[Q] Racht's 2.2.1 v0.15

So I can't post in the Dev Forums so I thought I might create a thread here about the bugs found in floyo v0.15, and maybe somebody could help me on these problems.
1. The auto brightness works but it sometimes results in my screen completly fading black in 2~3 seconds. And then the phone will remain unresponsive for 20 or so seconds.
2.The SD-Card safe to remove reboot. Actually this is not a problem but What I want to say is in the time I've been using this rom I have only had two of these, which is really impressive compared to what I saw in the Dev Thread. All 2 occurred when I had about 10~15% power left. I don't think that is a coincidence so maybe someone could look into that and probably solve it.
3.Not a problem, I just want to say that, battery usage is superb.
4.I had a bit of a problem with the Google PINYIN IME, it would be disabled every time I restarted.I moved it back to phone storage and after one more problem it solved itself.
5.Compass crashes and results in reboot.
6.With PowerAmp and Default music player, the volume keys on the side do not work while screen is off.
7.The camera button is disabled.
That's all for right now.
8. canĀ“t play .avi files with Rock player.
rock player really sucks on this rom
@UAL4588
dude somewhere in dev forums i read that there is a market app for camera. did u tried to use that one?? sorry forgot the name..
if you face any other issues please do mention it
*on the verge of installing floyo 0.15*
installed floyo 0.15 & ran quadrant, score 1070 , cpu 3389, memory 834
Woot, my first post. XD
I've been following racht's work, updating once I deem the ROM stable enough.
About the re-start thing. Yes, it's annoying. But I think it only happens when your system tries to close Root explorer. I'm guessing you're using some type of app killer. At times like these, I try to keep my phone as clean as possible, only installing apps that I need since lots of programs usually ends up messing with non-stable ROMs.
Auto brightness works fine on me. Not perfect but my phone doesn't freeze.
BuG: When battery level is at 10%, auto-brightness doesn't work if you put your phone to sleep. When you unlock it, brightness will be near the maximum level. To fix this, I just re-cycle through the brightness setting in the PowerWidget to quickly go to dim.
The camera here is definitely better than the stock one that Sony gave us. But I'd really want to be able to record videos.
I wonder why the camera button doesn't work to get pictures...
Oh and... Facebook crashes for me. I reinstalled but still, it crashed.
...
Hopefully, racht would be done soon. I'm checking on his thread everyday now. Support him, everyone. XD
fb work fine for me in 0.15 , but I want to remove some of the apps which comes pre-installed with floyo 0.15, like i dont want to keep the skype, but when i removed it with root uninstaller it showed up like a .com.skype...... file in the apps menu, though upon taping on it doesn't works.
Try removing it using Titanium Back-up. Worked for me.
Oh, and some apps leave those things. Check the filesize if it's 0 byte.
If it is, it should be safe to delete.
does ever try to wipe the data first? the Fb app wouldn't be crashed if the data wipe first(factory format)..fb app runs ok for me

found some issues in racht's floyo 0.15, as im unable to detect mobile network through the wireless & network > mobile networks menu. My phone does connects to my operator network & it runs fine, but i can't manually search for a network operators available, it only displays an error as "error while searching for networks"
also when my phone gets starts up if i kept it idle then it gets restarted & thus it gets into a loop
anyone has faced these issues yet??

I didn't have any problems with Wi-Fi detection when I was using Floyo. Try full-wipe and re-install ROM. Though I think you should just update to racht's Gingerbread.
About the reboot loop, that's caused by xrecovery. There's a fix somewhere here in the forums but I suggest just updating to Gingerbread since racht took care of that already.

Heavy lag

Hi guys,
Has anyone noticed heavy lag and freezing when using the phone. I don't have a lot of apps installed and i have disabled most apps that i don't use and the phone is still giving me issues.
Any advice is appreciated. [emoji4]
I switched from RAZR MAXX HD and this phone is a space rocket in comparison to my old Droid. Have you tried factory restore? Then if it lags - I would try to return it to Moto.
Check CPU utilization. Maybe some app hangs on. I've noticed that noozy (music player) lags like hell when album is over and player remains in notification bar.

I have the same problem, I tried to removing as much as possible automatic start calling but often when I uncheck the receiver this puts me "failed" in Rom Toolbox, I have tried Xposed Auto Boot module, but I do not feel that it works.
But for me, I have a lot of app instaled and my UI is very modified (Nova Launcher, Gravity Box, various Widget), so I know why he lag, but I still find it overheating lot and that's what most do slow.
Hi, I am having same issue. My configs was same as you, @Trinytix, but I had uninstalled all of them because lag issues. And now I continue to have same lag issues. When I use the standard cam for five minutes it become freezy and lag and sometimes I lose some photos. All the time it is burning. Just stops to burn when I leave it without work about 30 minutes. I think the problem is the snapdragon 810 but in other foruns some say that the problems with this processor was fixed.
I've been having similar issues, I got really into theming (using nova prime) the last couple of months and at the end of January the phone started to really lag hard. A couple weeks ago I stopped being able to open any apps other than the phone and google's messenger. I tried to factory reset from settings and could not (device gets stuck un the power down sequence), so I went the recovery mode route. reinstalled a fraction of my apps, put back a much stripped down version of my theme, and things were mostly ok, if a little laggy. However, the phone insisted that there was no SD card (internal or external) despite there being a 64GB card, which would sometimes show up when viewed in settings, some apps (podcast addict) were able to access the internal memory, but others couldn't (cameras, sms, photos, music). Yesterday the keyboard ceased to launch for more than a split second at a time, and would not take any input (you would not believe how infuriating this is unless you've experienced it first hand). In an attempt to regain some functionality I started uninstalling everything that I don't consider vitally important (bus app, podcasts, messenger) couldn't get through more than 1 or 2 at a time because multiple windows would stack telling me processes like "motorola" "android" and "media" had stopped. I did succeed in stripping away all the automation apps and theming apps (tasker, nova, icon packs, etc). I can't even place a phone call on the first try.
Oh and to add insult to injury I have to darned green lines about 0.5cm wide now.
Looks like hw problem or system got corrupted. Try to re-flash whole system but if is hw...
