music/photos duplicate after reboot - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have recently upgraded to 4.3, using the Cyanogenmod 10.2 rom and obviously it has its bugs but im not sure if this might be part of it. Whenever i reboot, i notice that all my songs are duplicated and also my photos. I've tried the apps > media storage > clear data and it works temporarily but once again, if i reboot, the songs/photos duplicate reappear...HELP!

[Q] CM7 Gapps Market force closes when attempting a download

I just recently updated from CM6 to CM7 RC2. I flashed the ROM, then the gb gapps (03-07-2011 version), then darktremor's a2sd. I wiped data and dalvik. All of my apps on my external partition appeared upon reboot. When I open the Market, it works fine. However, when I goto the My Apps section, several apps automatically begin downloading automatically, but they never make any progress. When I cancel the download, and restart it the market crashes. If I try to download a new app, the market crashes. All other apps work fine.
My settings are set to save apps internally (so they will goto the ext partition). I've tried the following things, to no avail.
Deleting the smdl2tmp1.asec file
Reflashing gb gapps
fixing file permissions with rom manager
fixing file permissions with a2sd via terminal
clearing market, downloader, other-seemingly market related caches
Is there any other fixes for market force closes? If you need a logcat, let me know.
Bump.
Market still not downloading...I may try making a Nandroid, then flashing straight CM7 & gapps, without dta2sd....
UPDATE: I fixed it. I uninstalled the market updates, which didn't appear to have any effect, other than fixing my problem. I don't know how it updated, unless flashing gapps did it.

My ICS install over CM7 with no wipe

Disclaimer: I do not recommend trying this. This is just me documenting a bad idea, mostly to get my post count up so I can start contributing to Pawit's ICS thread.
Purpose:
Document installing Pawitp's ICS release 10 over Cyanogen nightly 181 WITHOUT a wipe. Mostly just to avoid reinstalling all my apps, SMS's etc.. and to see how badly this could go.
Background:
I have been using Pawitp's ICS since the first release and upgrading with each new release. Sometimes with a full wipe, sometimes not. I was on a stable version 9 when 10 was released so i installed V10 and had a very good experience with it. I was not having any FC's, superuser was working and generally everything worked well except the browser was extremely laggy. So on a slow Sunday afternoon I thought I'd do a full wipe and reinstall V10 to see how the browser worked like that. After the factory restore and reinstall I started getting FC's and my superuser was not functioning. I played with it for a bit but eventually wound up restoring a backup of Cyanogen nightly 181 as I needed my phone working again at that time.
What I've done so far:
From Cyanogen nightly 181 I rebooted into CWM recovery, chose "install .zip from SD card", and installed Pawitp's V10. Then I installed gapps v5.3. Then rebooted the phone. (As mentioned, I did not wipe anything, not even the cache.)
The phone rebooted with 2 issues:
1) The process android.process.media FC's a lot, then eventually stops
2) The clock process FC's occasionally.
I rebooted to recovery, cleared the cache and restarted and still have the above problems. (I will work on these shortly, for now I want to see what all works.)
What is working:
1) All apps are still installed
2) Tried google earth and it still functions
3) Wifi still works and all connections are still remembered
4) Gmail upgraded and works.
5) Bluetooth turns on. I don't have any devices to test connecting to but my previous pairings are still listed.
6) Mobile Data turned off. (This is a documented bug in V10)
7) All settings work except going into sounds causes more media server FC's. It looks like this is maybe caused by my sounds being set to Cyanogen sounds that no longer exist?
8) In Accounts -> Sync, setting the browser to sync caused the error "sync is currently experiencing problems"
9) SU apps are still allowed SU rights.
10) UI still seems smooth like butter.
11) Receiving SMS worked and a sound played (and vibrated) but caused the media server crash. SMS's were kept from Cyanogen install.
12) Notification lights work (menu and back buttons light when receiving text etc.)
13) GTalk -When logging in I get the media server crash, then gtalk closes.
Now to work on the clock and media server FC's. If I figure out how to work those out I'll come back and post. If you want to know if anything works that I haven't listed let me know. If you have any thoughts on the android.process.media please let me know. (I've already cleared the cache in CWM, force stopped the media process and cleared its cache.)
Edit 1:
Clock FC fixed by finding the clock in Manage Apps, force stopping it, then clearing its data. This also deleted my alarms.
Edit 2:
Added bookmark widget and selected to sync with my gmail account. This activated browser sync in my Accounts and Sync settings suffessfully.
Edit 3:
All done with no happy ending. Talk was working but no longer opens. Calendar sync is not functioning. Market is unable to download files due to an error. Gallery works but FC's when exiting. And I never could get the media scanner errors to stop. Oh well it was fun while it lasted.

(Q) Apps disappear after fixing permissions

Im currently running Echoe Rom V13 4.3 and started getting issues with 'insufficient storage' on app update. The cure seemed to be deleting the duplicate entry for the app in data/app-lib.as the problem got worse I Eventually I re flashed the rom with a clean flash and all was good.
I had a few fc's on an app or 2 and thought no probs, I'll clean the caches in recovery after fixing permissions in ROM manager (as Philz doesnt seem to have a fix permissions option unlike CWM.
After this process I noticed 5 or 6 apps had disappeared from the phone completely. Strange. I'll just restore from Titanium. But trying every reinstall option and the app freezes.
Downloading from the play store brought the insufficient storage error back, but I could reinstall through My Backup.
So all ok now ? except going to update the new apps from Play brings back the insufficient storage message !
If I go into the app-lib folder these apps are showing 1 or 2 duplicates (I.e the file name with a -1 and -2 suffix. Delete these and reupdate and all is good.
However the issue then seems to 'spread' to other apps.
With hindsight this is exactly what happened at the start of the insufficient storage issue and the exact same apps disappeared. I really dont think its the apps in question (eg poweramp and Trustgo security that I have used without issue for years) but im confused as to what is happening and why ?

[Q] Data files get deleted (obb files) automatically but the space is still used.

Ok, hello my friends.
I installed some high graphic games like Horn, Modern Combat and etc. They were completely fine a few days ago but today I tried to run them and they started downloading data. then I went to see if the data files are fine but they were all deleted but the storage didn't get free. I factory resetted the phone and started installing the games again. they worked just fine but a few hours later, again the same thing happened. all data files got deleted without any space getting free. please help me and please don't tell me that there is something wrong with my internal storage cause I don't think that's easy to fix.

Your post is hard to read. Why don't you use paragraphs?
As to your issue, it's a lot more likely that your game simply continues to reserve the space (poor design). Perhaps try clearing the game's app cache
Settings > Applications > Application mgr > downloaded > (game name) > force close > clear cache

thanks man. about the writing I'm really sorry, It was a little hasty. I did clear the cash, I even uninstalled the game, but still the space is used.
up to even three days ago everything was fine. can it(this automatically deletion) be because of an update?
Furthermore doesn't an update in the system roll back when I reset to factory?

If you checked carefully, then it's a bug. Much more likely a game bug than an Android one.
A factory data reset wipes the user data and settings in the /data partition. It would not remove an OTA update or otherwise affect system files. Only restoring a pre-OTA backup or installing an earlier version of the full stock firmware will supplant the update.

Thank you so much. So I guess it must have been an update that caused the problem(and I say this because it was working for about a month and now factory reset wouldn't help).
Oh and it happens to all my games, so it's not a game problem.
Thanks for replying
same problem here
hey buddy have you found any solution yet..
i got the same problem in my galaxy s4..:crying::crying::crying:
Any solution!
I have found a workaround and I thought it would be a nice idea to wirte it here.
I came to the counclusion that if I did a fresh new reset factory and installing a large mount of files in the internal storage's obb folder it ended up being deleted after rebotting my tablet.
So I decided to do a few steps the next time I reseted my tablet. First, I copied my files using my pc into the SD Card. Then, I installed a random game from Google Play so the tablet could "adapt itself" and install its own obb folder. After that, I installed my apps but not all at once but one at the time and rebooting after every installation for making sure it was all ok.
It concluded not having the error again and after having deleted the random game from the begining my tablet had finally worked.
Hope this idea helps someone having the same problem as I did. Just don't copy all obb files at once, don't copying it directly from the computer but copying them from the SD Card and install some random game for making sure it can at least hold those obb files.
Good luck!
Apps like SDMaid and CCleaner might help too

Phone app crash after update

Hi everyone,
after updating to cm-13.0-20160430-NIGHTLY-d802 and, afterwards, facing this problem:
https://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/124602-phones-screen-seems-to-go-dark-after-going-into-standby-since-nightly-install/"]https://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/124602-phones-screen-seems-to-go-dark-after-going-into-standby-since-nightly-install/
I tried the following:
1) Wipe System + Data
2) flashed cm-13.0-20160501-NIGHTLY-d802
3) restore app+appdata+system data with Titanium Backup
Now everything but phone app, works.
It crashes every time i launch it/answer call. I tried to clean data and cache of phone app but it didn't work.
I discovered that after disabling/freezing "contact storage" phone app works perfectly, but i don't have contacts this way.
Any help is much appreciated.
Regards.

9. My device reboots when I receive or make a phone call. Why?
If your device has Google Dialer installed, it requires to be set as the default Phone application. If not set, it will reboot your device. Go to 'Settings -> Apps -> "Gear Icon" upper right -> Default Apps -> Phone App' to set Google Dialer as your default.
