[Q] Can't Delete Stock Apps with Titanium Backup

Before I flashed my DZ with Pauls Custom ROM with Sense I could delete the stock apps using Titanium Backup and the exploit. Now when I attempt to do this it reboots and shows the android with a red exclamation mark and I have to remove the battery to reboot the phone and the app I tried deleting is still there. Am I doing something wrong or does flashing the ROM mean I can't delete the apps I don't want now?

Should still work fine regardless of ROM. Any specific app giving you greif? ....have you tried removing then re-installing Titanium?... worth a try.

i also experienced this. tried to delete the amazon mp3 app and it came back after restart.
what exactly do we have to delete where?

Tried to remove and reinstall titanium backup but made no difference. Happens with any of the pre-loaded apps. Think its because of the clockwork mod ?

Apps wont restore from market after fresh Rom flash?

The last two Roms I installed were Royal Mint and Royal MIUI and on both Roms I wasn't able to restore my free apps. Does anyone know why and or how to fix this?
Ps. I always wipe data, cache and, dalvik cache before installing a rom.

Way too many apps to restore. Can I restore multiple apps at once or one by one?

They should restore automatically. Why your phone isn't doing that i have no clue. The nice thing about Titanium Backup is it will also restore the data. So you will pick up exactly where you left off. Just make sure to skip the sign-in page and sing in via the settings options.

mine has never done it automatically. Always have had to use Titanium Backup.

are you sign in to your google account on first boot, that's the only way it will restore all apps. If not then it will not and you will have to restore apps.

^ yes always

Not necessarily first boot, after the settling period ( boot 1: wait 5 min, boot 2: wait 5 min and sign in) sign in and let the phone do it's thing, don't turn on wifi out anything, just sign on and let it be, always works when I use this method on royal ginger

the trick is to not open the market until they start restoring. to resync your apps, flash back to a nandroid for 24-72 hours. hope it helped.
edit: this includes gapps, whereyou go through the market and install them. i found it disrupted my installation.

Gingerbread recovery issues

Is anyone else not able to get into recovery? I can't access stock or clockworkmod recovery.
When I try to do a factory reset through the phone phone boots into bootloader with an error message.
As always thanks for looking.

DXrecovery doesn't work with gingerbread, you gotta use the D2recovery instead

How do I get the D2 recovery for my DX. Sorry for the noob type?

So no stock recovery either?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA Premium App

you need to get an sbf file of 2.2.1 and then use rsd lite to flash it to your phone... then you can use clockwork to get back.

I understand that. I'm trying to wipe data to clear up the constant sync error except I have no way of wiping data. Make sense?

Recovery Access in GB
Besides using a reboot into rocovery app, you can also shut down the phone, then pull the battery, put the battery back in and the normal Vol Down + Power will get you into Clockwork Recovery. Seems like GB is in some kind of stand by mode even when you power it down.

Did you just flash the ROM?
Did to full wipe and or factory reset?
Are you coming from another custom ROM?
Did you restore any system apps or data using titanium backup or my backup root etc? Edit: if so was the backup made from a different ROM?
Have you a recent cwm recovery nan-backup? Could boot into recovery and try "fix permission", sometimes helps with force closes, and sometimes will give you more issues than you had,....according to some.
Edit: Could also try clearing the app data/cache etc. You may lose your mail account setup though.

If you do a full wipe & flash the Rom again, I don't think you will have a problem.
What apps did you remove, how (root explorer, titanium, removed from zip prior to flashing ROM) etc?

Android is upgrading message everytime I reboot phone.

This wasn't happening yesterday. Every morning I reboot my phone when j remove from the Wireless charger to prevent the wireless charger wakelock.
This morning however I notice that everytime I reboot I get the Android is upgrading message as if I just performed a OTA.
The phone finishes the upgrade and looks and acts fine bit if I reboot again it does it again.
Anyone else experience this before? Its still happening if I reboot everytime.

Clear cache and maybe load a new kernel maybe?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

if you didnt do it yourself, then its either an app, a mod, or the rom/kernel that youre running. whats happening is that your dalvik-cache is getting wiped then rebuilt on boot.

I'm on stock 4.2.2 rooted and running motley kernel. Have been running this setup for a month no and no issues and haven't installed any weird apps that could do this.
Doesn't make sense

I think it happens when you wipe davlik with apps disabled.
if it only pops up for a second or so, don't worry about it.

It was the beats audio root app (paid version) I noticed it would consistently say permission granted even when the phone was idle.
Uninstalled the drivers using the inapp uninstaller and now no more message when rebooting.
Anyone know why this app clears dalvik cache every reboot?

i use the beats+xlouder flashable mod, and it clears dalvik upon flashing. its nonsense that the app clears dalvik after a reboot, i definitely wouldnt be happy with it.

This started in 4.0, its just part of system startup to check system integrity I believe

So how do you find out which application is the one that's wiping the cache?

its probably one that needs root. it could be a flashed mod too.

Thank you for sharing what was the problem.

I have found fix for this error, it is mainly due to odex files which are created by lucky patcher so deleting these files using lucky patcher itself will surely remove this error with 50 percent success rate. Here's the fix; open lucky patcher, there in lower left section you can see Toolbox, click Toolbox button then select 4th last option i.e Remove all odex files. Thats it android will reboot on itself and vola no android is upgrading. .
Check out attachement for help.
