** FIXED ** Browser Force Closes Every Time

Using the default browser, on JF 1.5, every time I try to open it, I get:
"The application Browser (process com.android.browser) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
This is still happening after numerous reboots. I haven't done anything since this morning when it was working. I don't know what would've changed.
Can I try reinstalling the apk? Or what should I try?

Did you perform a wipe when you installed the update? If not, try that first. If it still persists, then run the update again.

Sorry, guess I should've clarified. I've been running this build since the day it came out with no issues. Then today, out of the blue, it started happening.
I tried to install Browser.apk via apk installer and was told I couldn't install it. When I tried to install via ADB, I got "[INSTALL_FAILED_ALREADY_EXISTS]"

you would have to remove it before reinstalling.... try doing logcat to see why it force crashes. just connect your phone to your computer run adb logcat then on your phone start the browser. when it crashes you should see some type of exception, see what it is complaining about.

If you have your data on sdcard then you could have a stale nfs file handle and you need to get rid of it by mounting your phone in linux and emptying your data directory. When you reboot after that your phone will redo the build the data. Just dont delete the directory. You can just make a new file on the same partition and move the contents of your data directory to the new file. The phone wont look for data in random places so that works.
Just verify this before you do it. I could be wrong. Just a guess.

I have never ran a logcat, but I think I did it correctly.
stogchris81, yes I have apps on SD.

seems like your database file for the browser is corrupted. did you put your /data/data on sd? you should be able to delete it and reboot it should recreate. it should be in /data/data/com.android.browser. try to rename it first just in case... you will lose all your bookmarks though... but I think it's already corrupted so you probably lost it already.
adb shell mv /data/data/com.android.browser /data/data/com.android.browser.OLD
adb shell mkdir /data/data/com.android.browser
adb shell reboot

Ran the first line and got this:
failed on '/data/data/com/android.browser' - No such file or directory

you didn't copy the line correctly.

Well that would make things a little difficult wouldn't it.
Everything seems to be back in working order. Lost all my bookmarks and everything, but at least it's working!
Thank you very VERY much! I really do appreciate it. Is there anything else I need to do now? Now that I have the com.android.browser.old?

if things are working and you don't mind losing those bookmarks you can remove the .old. just do
adb shell rm -r /data/data/com.android.browser.OLD

I don't see any reason not to do it. The bookmarks are toast right? I can't recover them at all?

probably, if you really want to try to recover you can try to recover them. But its complicated, I haven't tried so I can't give you any instructions how you.

Cool, I'll just remove them. Thanks again!

did you happen to try going into application manager and clearing the browser data? i get this issue a lot, and thats real easy to do. you lose your bookmarks, but i regularly back them up with apps that you can get from the market.

That would have been a good thing to try as well. I didn't think of that.

Browser problem
Guys, I have a bit of a strange problem.. i am using JF1.5 but my browser is not working... by that i mean it opens without a problem and shows the homepage ( www.google.com ) in a second but when i open anyother address it just says " web page not available- check your internet connection " but the strange thing is that when i open a link there is no network activity as if the browser aint even trying to connect to the network ....
Now i have installed opera mini and thats working just fine .... i.e opens every page quickly ....
Any Idea whats the problem ?
Thanks

[SOLVED] Cannot Update Market Enabler

So here is my problem. I have been running the latest Cyanogenmod (4.2.14.1) on my HTC Magic 32A, with Market Enabler v3.0 (I think, could be up to v3.2). The other day I tried uninstalling Market Enabler, and upgrading to v3.8. I deleted the existing Market Enabler files manually (/system/sd/app/com.androidiani.MarketEnabler.apk) and the corresponding dalvik-cache file, then rebooted and tried to install Market Enabler v3.8
Now when I try to install Market Enabler (I've tried v3.0, v3.2, and v3.8), I get this error: "MarketEnabler could not be installed on this phone"
I've checked in the applications management screen, and Market Enabler does not show up there. I even reflashed my cyanogenmod ROM and formatted my cache and dalvik-cache, and it still won't work. I have run out of ideas. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a log of a failed install of Market Enabler:

So I ended up running $ adb uninstall com.androidiani.MarketEnabler again, (which previously resulted in "Failure"), but this time it actually worked. Now I can install MarketEnabler again.

[Q] How do I install AccountAndSyncSettings.apk?

I am trying to access System-Settings-Accounts, but cannot find it on my NST rooted w Nook Manager.
I installed one touch Sync Settings from the market, but when I click on it, the NST reboots.
I found AccountAndSyncSettings.apk in the /system/app folder, but installation fails.
I copied the file over to my desktop and did an adb install. [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE]

Please advise...

You don't install it. The workaround to change sync settings is to use the gmail app to add an account and enter the same account information you already have setup and you will be able to update the sync settings.

You don't install apk's in /system/app/ you just put them in /system/app/ and after reboot start working.
Try to access AccountAndSyncSettings using 'NookColorTools'. If NCT does not allow access to these settings try using 'apktool' to decompile package and try to infer correct 'am start' command from the directory structure,filenames and code. Experiment with 'am start' using adb.

This is a Nook Simple Touch. NookColorTools sounds like something from the nook color?

If I understand you correctly, I need to:

I am unclear on how I access sync settings after that is done?

Add account shouldn't send you back to the inbox. It should work like this:
Open gmail
Open menu, click on accounts
Click on Add account button
Click on the big g on the Add an account screen
Click Next
Click Sign In
Enter your gmail username and password
Click Sign In
Now you should be on the Data & synchronization page with check boxes for Contacts, Calendar and Gmail. Check/uncheck what you want and click on Finish.
If add account continues to send you back to the inbox get a logcat when that happens and post it.

Do you have B&N apps disabled? If so, reenable and try again. B&N messed with the android authentication stuff and has their own account types. Since you aren't even getting to the page where you select the account type (Google and two generic android) I suspect it might be looking for disabled B&N account stuff and crashing.
The logcat isn't telling me much - is there anything earlier in the log of interest? /data/anr/traces.txt also might help but I'm not optimistic on that one.

Don't try digging the intent for am start out of the apk either as market tools like one touch sync settings have already figured that out and that's what they do.

It crashes android and restarts. I was wrong about it being a layout issue. Its a null pointer exception.

I'm pretty stock. Only rooted with NookManager and NTGAppsAttack. All B&N apps enabled. A few other apps installed but not too much. What kind of customization do you have? Maybe we can track down what makes it work on your device.

some answers...
straygecko said:
Do you have B&N apps disabled? If so, reenable and try again. B&N messed with the android authentication stuff and has their own account types. Since you aren't even getting to the page where you select the account type (Google and two generic android) I suspect it might be looking for disabled B&N account stuff and crashing.

OK, that's more helpful. It says you don't have an apk that handles the Add Account intent. It may have to do with your attempt to install AccountAndSyncSettings.apk from /system/app. Does AccountAndSyncSettings.apk still exist in /system/app? If so, try rebooting your NST and try the gmail work around again. If not, move it back there and reboot then try the gmail work around again.

Realunch won't see things in that folder. You need to use a file manager tat has an option to explore with root privileges like ES File Explorer. But the logcat you posted was what I needed so no need to post the traces.txt

On my NST this command works fine because it starts the Gapps Sync_settings (I have NTGAppsAttack installed and configured)
other commands fail because nook does know which intent goes goes to Oobe.apk and which to Google account settings (I guess, based on ddms error messages).
Connect your nook via adb and run 'ddms' from your Android folder.
It specifically informs you when it is trying to run part of Oobe.apk or Gapps and when these commands generate errors.
Tonight I'll try to look closer to this problem.

Logcat shows the same thing. No apk to handle the android.settings.ADD_ACCOUNT_SETTINGS intent. It really sounds like your AccountAndSyncSettings.apk got mangled along the way somehow. Reinstalling NTGAppsAttack won't fix that as AccountAndSyncSettings.apk is part of the stock B&N stuff. A logcat from Android startup (package manager messages) could help pin down what's wrong with the apk you have but knowing that or not the fix would be the same. Either restore to prior to installing NTGAppsAttack and reinstall NTGAppsAttack. Or you could extract the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk from the B&N 1.2.1 update file, copy it to your /system/app folder, reboot and try the gmail workaround again. The first has the highest probability of success but the second isn't too much work and has a pretty good chance of fixing it.

The SYNC_SETTINGS intent is handled by AccountAndSyncSettings.apk which is part of stock B&N and isn't installed by NTGAppsAttack. I think this has something to do with the B&N account stuff they patched into android. Seeing from your profile you're not in the US or UK do you even have your device registered with B&N? Not having a B&N account setup might be what's making your device work as sync settings won't be trying to display a B&N account in its list of accounts.

I have the same issue. I tried multiple ways and apps to get to the sync settings. but my nst just reboots at every attempt.

Got the command from decompiled "AccountAndSyncSettings.apk".

i tried this command in terminal app within nst. and it rebooted right away, after a brief pause.

The SYNC_SETTINGS intent is handled by AccountAndSyncSettings.apk which is part of stock B&N and isn't installed by NTGAppsAttack. I think this has something to do with the B&N account stuff they patched into android. Seeing from your profile you're not in the US or UK do you even have your device registered with B&N? Not having a B&N account setup might be what's making your device work as sync settings won't be trying to display a B&N account in its list of accounts.

my device is uk. just bought from argos last month rooted with nookmanager. one issue that i notice is that some dialog boxes display empty, possibly because foreground/background colours are same/similar. i can't remember whether i had this problem before rooting.

Logcat shows the same thing. No apk to handle the android.settings.ADD_ACCOUNT_SETTINGS intent. It really sounds like your AccountAndSyncSettings.apk got mangled along the way somehow. Reinstalling NTGAppsAttack won't fix that as AccountAndSyncSettings.apk is part of the stock B&N stuff. A logcat from Android startup (package manager messages) could help pin down what's wrong with the apk you have but knowing that or not the fix would be the same. Either restore to prior to installing NTGAppsAttack and reinstall NTGAppsAttack. Or you could extract the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk from the B&N 1.2.1 update file, copy it to your /system/app folder, reboot and try the gmail workaround again. The first has the highest probability of success but the second isn't too much work and has a pretty good chance of fixing it.

ok. the second option did not work. so, i am trying to reset the nook and start over.
i erased and deregistered it. after reboot i went through the setup process. then i rebooted with my nook manager card and rooted. rebooted and all looks good.
then i rebooted with the nookmanager card to install gapps attack
after reboot, i am stuck at step 16. Go back to ReLaunch and open the Market
when i do this it shows me the license screen i hit accept, then i just get a server error.
gmail and contacts apps seems to be working fine. when i open calendar, it opens but there is an image of an sd card superimposed over the top of the calendar -- i dont remember it doing htat before. talk will not open, it just briefly flashes the screen and goes back to the applications in relaunch.
I have done this entire process several times now and the results have been exactly the same each time???
update: i just tried this with a new gmail account, and the results were the same...
as i have thought about this most of yesterday and today, it seems to me that something is not getting cleared / deleted in the reset process...
aug-12-13 update: i installed nook color tools, used it to uninstall the market update, rebooted, rebooted w nook mgr card, reinstalled gappsattack. no change...
i am not sure if this is significant, but i noticed something else that supports my theory that not everything is getting erased in the reset process. when i open contacts, my google contacts from my original gmail acct are still in the list even though, i deregistered/erased and used a different gmail acct when i did this yesterday...

back to my original question...
I understand that B&N has modified the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk on the nook to fence it in to their company.
Has anyone tried replacing the AccountAndSyncSettings.apk in their nook with one from another Android 2.1 device?
I assume this would break the B&N apps, but I wonder if it would enable apps that need to access that apk...

Bluetooth force close with car

Hi,
I recently updated my Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) to the latest firmware (I9505XXUHOA7 (OXA) - Android 5.0.1).
Since, I cannot connect the phone to the car.
Actually, the pairing is ok, but when the car tries to sync phonebook (automatically), the bluetooth service crash and restart.
I can say that because I made a test. Immediately after the connection I started a call manually and the call was made without any problem, but when I ended the call, the bluetooth service crashed...
(There was no problems with the 4.4.2)
My receiver is the Alpine CDE-125BT

Same problem
Hi.
I have the same problem with kenwood kdc-bt8041u receiver. I have tested with stock 5.0.1, LolliROM 3.1 and GPE edition by Danvdh. I think on GPE edition worked fine but it is 2 months since I installed LolliROM or stock in which doesn't work. I am looking for a solution too...
Any help?

I solved the problem with a factory reset.

Phone app continuously crashing

First, some information about the device:
1. Samsung Galaxy S5 from TMobile
2. Has Lollipop installed (from OTA update)
3. Factory ROM, not rooted, bootloader still locked, no modifications whatsoever.
For some reason I am getting the "Unfortunately, Phone has stopped" popup continuously. This occurs from the moment I boot up (at lockscreen) and as soon as I press "OK", it comes up about 0.2 seconds later. Makes it very difficult to navigate the device menus.
I have looked at logcats and this exception is what occurs:

It seems to have something to do with telecom. I have removed the SIM card, SD card, etc. No difference. I have tried clearing app data for contacts, contacts storage, phone app, even "com.android.server.telecom" from ADB SHELL PM CLEAR command, but no change.
Does anyone know what the issue could be? What can I try to do (besides factory reset of course) to fix the issue? Thanks in advance. I can post more logcats if needed.

There are numerous bugs with system apps crashing with lolipop on the S5. My contacts app is constantly crashing, vzw, OTA.

Ended up doing a factory reset, which fixed the issue

I really didn't want to factory reset ?

You need to factory reset after upgrading from KK to LP

That's more of a personal preference. I've seen tons of upgrades on this phone that went fine.
