url redirects and market stalling

I have a couple questions regarding some issues I've had so far with my G1. I've searched around and can't find anything relating to my problems but I hope I'm not the only one.
First issue is with url redirects. I've encountered this most often when I try to download podcasts using the browser. For example, when I try to download this TWiT podcast (http://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/aolradio.podcast.aol.com/twit/TWiT0169Ha.mp3) directly it always errors out saying, rather blandly, "download unsuccsessfull." My workaround for this has been going to yahoo or tinyurl and removing the podtrac.com part from the url and then saving the file from the new link. Although this works for redirected urls when I can edit them, hiden redirects like (http://media.libsyn.com/media/thefutureandyou/TFAY_2008_3_26.mp3) fail everytime. If there was a perfect podcast app on or off the marketplace I wouldn't mind. Yet so far there is none that meets my satisfaction. If this is a bug with my phone, I'll be happy to replace it... but it seems more likely that it's a bug in the browser itself.
My second issue is less time consuming yet still annoying. After using the phone for at least an hour (although sometimes less, if I've used many apps) the marketplace will stall when I attempt to download anything. It will sit at "starting downloading," usually for 10-20 minutes and then actually begin downloading. I've eliminated the possibility that the market is just randomly slow, since I can instantly solve this problem by rebooting the phone and re-opening the marketplace; upon which the download starts immediately.
Alright, that's my wall of text. I would really appreciate some help or direction since I do love this phone, despite it's quirks. Hell, I wrote this on my phone. Thanks for reading.

Thanks for the reply. I'm on T-Mobile using a stock ota rc30 (friend of mine didn't know what to do when he got the prompt and just upgraded >_<). Haven't messed with the phone in other ways, save for installing/removing apps on a daily basis. I am patiently waiting for a root solution for rc30, but for now I just want to remove these bugs.
One other question I'd like to throw in: any way of clearing the marketplace cache without root? I'm assuming no, but 14MB is too much and I know it's only gonna get bigger. I hope google is not just sitting around on this and sd app storage. Maybe they're waiting till January. Seems like there are one too many features they "forgot" too include.
Again, thanks for the reply.

SD app storage is tricky, and despite all the kids whining, it was disabled on purpose and for good reason. Depending on how well applications are signed (IIRC they aren't, or use public keys that we could easily resign), allowing them to sit on the SD card would mean that people could crack them. Google wants to allow people to commercialise their applications, but if they were easily cracked (not even require a rooted phone), they really couldn't.

Replacing System apps- topic changed for obvious reasons

People are probably going to flame this thread for me saying this but what the heck.....
there have been countless threads about how to remove, replace, and/or delete system apps and their functions. And with a little searching you will find there are many answers.
At the least I should say, is that system apps can be removed, however; there are certain ones that should not be removed because it will break your system....that's been established already, duh?, yes I know...but here is what my point is to cover:
The system apps that were known to be removed with no problem are calendar, clock, IM, mail, work email, and other little third party apps added to the system by whatever Dev made the rom,
and the ones recommended that SHOULD NOT be removed are main phone functioning apps such as..Mms, Music, Dialer, Contacts, Camera and so on ad so forth,
Well that is correct. Those can't be removed, but yes they can be replaced and no it will not break the system.
I use Handcent sms as my default Mms, the original system version is removed.
I use Meridian music player as my default Music app, the original system version is removed,
I use Camera zoom Pro, as my original Camera app, the original system version is removed.
So in a nutshell, I basically chose all the stable 3rd party phone functioning apps that I use daily and made them replacements to the default system versions, so I don't have two music apps, two message apps, two camera apps and so on.
Did it break my stability?, Crash my phone?, Cause crazy reboots? Screw with the incoming and outgoing calls,tex, and mms?
The answer is no, no, no, and NO. Everything is fine. I have been doing this for a long time now, so this is not some new technique that I have only tested once, on one rom.
I have replaced every system app except dialer, there is really no replacement for that in my opinion that is worthy. Contacts I have replaced before with a 3rd party app called phone book. It worked. But it crashed, because Contact and Dialer go hand in hand, so to successfully replace one you would have to replace the other...my recommendation, don't screw around with those. Besides, Devs implement constant updates and new features to those in every build anyway.
I will more than happily share my method of replacement in a new thread over in the the apps forum if anyone is interested, but feel free to share your opinions, experiences, and your own personal methods here.....
and if enough users request, I will create a "How to" for everyone later.

What's your point?

What's yours?

My point is that your "discovery" is one of the VERY BIGGEST defining design features of the android platform. This is nothing new and nothing that even lacks understanding. WE ALREADY KNOW ALL THIS!!!
I suggest that you go and read all the platform documentation. Its all there.

Thats a great link by the way^^ but still only explains how to delete, it doesn't state how to successfully replace system apps.

Couldn't you just replace the files (/system/app) in any ROM and resign and flash?
that seems easiest to me.

BINGO!^^ that's exact same way I do it, however there is another method I'd like to share, just don't have the time to type it up,
note to those who don't know when replacing the apps, rename the apk the same as the original, so if you want GDE for your home replacement, remove the original Launcher.apk then drop in GDE and rename it Launcher.apk....very important step, you will get unstoppable reboots and freezing.

Its called Terminal Emulator.
mount system and remove the apps in the system/app directory. virtually everyone knows this. There was a post on how to do this in the general section. fin.

dude read the topic, Im talking about replacing not removing, so if you're going to post commands then put one up on how to replace an app already running from data partition to system/data replacing the one already there I.E. handcent(data partition) replaces Mms.(system/data)....otherwise you're not helping, No sh**t, I know everyone knows that but dont know this....so
for those who don't give a dam for codes and commands, or screwing with zips and resigning...patiently wait and I will post easiest method- you can do it right from your phone, without even rebooting!
I'll try to have it up later today.

ehh basically the same thing only you would push the apk's to the system/app directory.
Or you can just put em in the data/app directory and delete the apk in the system/app directory. still not that hard =/ a lot of people already know how to do this as well.
There are a lot of easy methods. sorry if I came out rude and sarcastic its my nature =/

just let him write his tut
then you can
say he has reinvented the wheel
call him a plagiarist
give him a pat on the back for making it nice and easy for noobs to understand

Well I wasn't assuming that I had re-invented something or made an all new discovery...Im pretty sure everything around here has had atleast a dozen how to threads, and everyone, after a little research should pretty much know how to do everything, I admit
So I don't want to come off as some obnoxious asshole that think he knows everything, because Im not, I just wanted to share my opinion, the whole reason I became a member of xda,
So those of you who already know how to do this, then ease off, don't jump down my back just because you know of other threads and topics in relation, or you have easier methods and how to's or whatever, I'm not starting a conspiracy here...geez, I make one topic that's been seen before, and now it's like I can't express my freedom of discussion just because someone else did first. That's a load of crap and you guys know so.
Anyway here is my tut:
For those of ya with some type of root explorer this would be the preferable procedure for you
go to the /data/apps directory select the apk that you would like to use for replacement, such as Meridian music player, rename it to music.apk
then copy
navigate to system/data/apps directory, paste...it should say it already exist and would you like to replace click yes.
Done. Do the same for any other system app, by renaming it as original, copy and replace.
Be sure to put system in Read/Write or this won't work.
That's it. Simple, brief, and no problem.
For those who also put their input into this thread I thank you for your time..your knowledge is noted and appreciated.

well good link... i dont follow cyanogen and i know how to delete apps. what i am after is replacing the sys apps with third party apps... i am sure it is more involved than pushing to /system/app... hence i asked for a tut
well thats it?!! rename the replacement app to the app itss replacing in system! wow thanks for the tidbit... ill try the resigning thing also. thanks!

More importantly, anyone else getting a virus hit on the file by the name of WS.Reputation.1?

I posted on this subject in the development thread.
I wasn't sure if this subject belongs here or there.
Now comes an article raising the possibility of the phone being blacklisted on the marketplace when MS detects the unlock has taken place:
http://www.mobiletechworld.com/2010/11/25/windows-phone-7-unlocker-released/

Worse than a virus hit. I actually got it. It changed my host file by adding a couple localhost redirects... Every time I clicked on a Google seach result, it would redirect me to some crappy excuse of a search engine. Relatively easy to fix though.

no virus hit and havent encountered the redirect problem... am wondering the same with the blacklist issue but i guess it will be a wait and see as with most unlock/jailbreak issues...

While MS might know if you unlock your phone to sideload apps I don't think they'll take the step of banning a user completely from the marketplace. Doing so would backfire because there is no way this user is ever going to pay for an app; he'll be forced to look for cracked ones, not something MS would want.
Also from this message, it doesn't seem they are taking this sideloading business too seriously, which is good. Now XDA, please bring on some goodies. I need a File Explorer and a Media Player like free version of old Core Player

Beginning to hate "The Market"

That's nice. Do you want some French Cries with that Whaa Burger?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

Nice. You know, my mom always told me that if you don't have anything good to say, then just don't say anything.
Good advice in my opinion.

You've lost your keys or have problems accessing them - it's your problem, not Google's. This is called security - it's a feature, not a bug.
And you can't delete app for quite obvious reasons: in IT world you should try to not delete anything ever. Want some more practical reason? If you would delete your app and release new one with same package name, but signed with different keys, then people who already downloaded your first app wouldn't be able to install a new one.

Yeah, I guess y'all are right. OP deleted because apparently 15 years of work in IT and 2 degrees makes me stupid for losing a file. Thank god no one else has ever lost a file

Yeah... the android market system is pretty well thought out. But can you imagine if they lost the key to angry birds, or to some corporate app?

This is the reason why there are all of these "Keep backup(s) of your private key." warnings
You know, there may be much, much, much worse consequences of losing private keys. Many devices or technologies are designed to restrict access to themselves using keys of their manufacturers. Lets imagine Apple lose keys they use for app signing: there would be no more apps for any existent device - for millions of them! Same for other technologies: one harddisk failure and thousands or millions of devices around the world become totally useless.
Private keys are one of the most important and most secured things in many companies.

Always Never plan on getting old, even though the "50" mark is around the corner! LOL
It wasn't too painful to re-create the app. Now I have my keystore files saved on computer, external drive and burned to CD. Live and Learn I guess
Well, I never did find the keystores to my first 2 apps. Thankfully the user interface is really just there for pulling from my hosted databases. I can update the databases outside of Market updates.
Sorry about "whining" about this, but when I first created these apps, i had NO idea how important that keystore file was. I wish the Eclipse Export popped-up a 30 point font dialog box with:
"WARNING! DO NOT LOSE THIS FILE OR YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO UPDATE YOUR APPLICATION!"
I actually thought the keystore was somehow integrated into the apk (which it might be, I don't know, but you still need the keystore file).
I've gone the extra steps and copied my current keystore files to my hosted site AND e-mailed them to myself. That makes 5 copies! LOL

How to get rid of LeEco Spyware?

1.
I would like to get rid of as many LeEco apps as possible because I am convinced that they phone home and steal my personal data. Have you successfully installed any LeEco apps without triggering any issues and, if yes, please let me know the names of the system apps that can be safely uninstalled with an unintaller having root access.
2.
Does anyone know where I can download AOSP dialer/sms/contacts? Thanks.

Just replace the launcher, install Google Camera and disable the LeCloud services

Why not? Hardware is good and phone is cheap. Once CM or a clean ROM is installed, the LeEco software doesn't matter. Do you understand or shall I explain in more detail. It's not really that complicated.

If you are still sure leeco is stealing your data(which is complete nonsense and you have exactly zero facts to back you up) and you dont know how or what to delete(despite being so clever and knowning so much about custom roms) you could just block all leeco IP's in hosts file. Im sure being the pro you are, you know how to get these ip adresses and what hosts file is

Thanks Joms. I already did and, moreover, I blocked LeeCo apps with a firewall. However, I would like to completely uninstall them and I am sure that other users want this, too.
In fact, I already did uninstall a few of them and - so far - I did not get any error messages. It might be nice to have a list of LeEco apps that can be safely uninstalled because there are so many of them.

Veidas comes off as the ass in this scenario....

I used this app to uninstall most of the LeEco system apps: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=de It comes with a restore function.
I need to check in more detail/need a few more days in order to confirm that there are really no issues. (Uninstalling the dialer/contacts app was not a good idea though.)

Hi Tiz
Do you see any clashes in rom after uninstalling system apps?

Hi!
If you want you can additionally add the LeEco servers to your hosts file to prevent that any app can contact them. I collected a list of all hostnames I found in the system applications and/or logcat in this posting here.
Additionally here a list of (system) apps I have disabled (via "pm disable") command:

The only limitation I noticed so far, is that the media control buttons (Previous/Play/Next) in the control center stop working, when you disable/remove the LeTv Music player (package name "com.android.music") because the buttons do not broadcast Android standard media Intents but instead LeEco-specifiic ones (which are only received by LeEco Music player which then performs the desired actions - even controlling 3rd party players).
I changed the behaviour of the media buttons with this Xposed module here: Xposed-module-EUI-MusicControls.

Not yet. (Except for the dialer/contacts app.) It's probably best to freeze apps first and take androchecks list as a guideline.

i dont understand why you suspect that the phone ( lepro3) steals your data? i have been using the phone for banking, share trading, etc, and i never found any issues. i also install a 360 antivirus on day 1 , and let it to run in the background to secure the phone. when i first bought the phone, it had customer rom 019s, when i first run 360 antivirus, there was one virus found. had it removed, since them, no more trouble. later i re-flashed the factory rom ( chinese version 018s), plus google play, etc. i have no issues at all. for those phone apps which you dont need them to access internet ( such as LeEco's apps) , you can also disable them from the phone's manager ( no access in both data and wifi). leEco is a company on stock list ( Hong Kong). i wont think it will risk its reputation adding some spywares in the phone. as it can be found easily. unless you have 3rd party app with virus....
