Havent seen this posted but i noticed that when you try to download from the market the file and you get DOWNLOAD WAS UNSUCCESSFULL your download is actually stored on your sdcard under sdcard/download. Now this happens ONLY if you try to download a file and it DOESNT install. in other words when the download bar fills up but you see it hasnt installed use a file browser go to download on ur sdcard and you'll see downloadfile, downloadfile1, etc. depending on how many times you tried to download that app or other apps. once you click on it and try to install via app manager it you will then see which file it is. as i said this worked for ME so i cant guarantee it will work for EVERYBODY. but it will save you the hassle of unmounting your card everytime you cant get it to install. FYI this will NOT work if you get the unsuccessfull install error. hope this helps someone.
Downgraded & rooted couple of days ago, removed some bloat, all ok.
Uninstalled a little more bloat today... but...
1. Can't remember what I uninstalled exactly.
2. Market launches ok, but whenever I click on an item within the market i get an instant force close every time.
Ideas? Help?
Thanks all.
Edit: I remember uninstalling download manager. Could that be it?
It's not here though, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036249, anyone have the apk?
Can you provide a logcat of the issue?
Not currently as I don't have a logcat app installed.
However, I'm sure it's related to the download manager I uninstalled using root Uninstaller.
Market is force closing on download links & anything I attempt to download using the browser throws up an empty zip folder.
I could really use the download manager apk to avoid having to reflash.
Thanks for any help.
Install a logcat app, run the error and paste the output here. It will help by debugging the issue.
I'm not too sure it has to do with the "download manager" app, since that is mainly related to the web browser. Market downloads follow their own route, as they are stored in the cache partition while they're being installed.
Ok, I'll get transfer a logcat app to my phone when i get back to my pc later.
Just type in "adb logcat" into adb do you want a copy of my download provider dazza??

Thanks for that, just reinstalled & I'm now able to access market links without fc.
However, downloads are not working properly.
No fc but the download icon only briefly flashes up in taskbar but doesn't download.
I'm guessing that this is because I have setinstalllocation2.
Moved to phone via manage apps but still no joy.
When i get home I'll go back to setinstalllocation0 & reinstall so that they go to sys & I'll bet a penny to a pound that problem will be solved!
Ok, so, didn't work.
MArket is now not force closing but, as before any downloads started just result in a very brief flash of the download taskbar arrow then nothing.
Uninstalled updates to market, no luck, upgraded to new version market, no luck, however, i do now get an error downloading file notification.
Please delete post
Erm... Use pastebin.com, with Java notation. It's WAY more readable. For example: http://pastebin.com/02jK09Yr
Can't paste to it from browser so, once again, will have to later.
Did manage to install alogcat from an apk and pulled this just now.
Ok, so here's a couple of logs i took just now & submitted to pastebin.
Decided to flash.
MODS, PLEASE DELETE THREAD.
Since nightly builds happen daily, it is difficult to download 250MB+ data daily and flash it manually. And also updater won't show any updates most of the time. The solution is to use CyanDelta.
Install this app from playstore. Then follow the given instructions. Updates will be around 15MB only. Check for updates daily.
About the App:
http://www.cyandelta.com/
Download from here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ult#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5jeWFuZGVsdGEiXQ.
Steps to be followed:
1. Download CM12 nightly (skip if already downloaded). Keep it in internal storage.
2. Download "Cyandelta" app from playstore using link given above.
3. Now open the Cyandelta app and load the zip (you will see this option when you enter inside the app)
4. Now when it prompts for delete gives "yes"(its has already taken a note of the contents of the zip so no need to worry)
5. Now it will show an update if your connected to your internet. Give app permission to flash it. It will take care of flashing and wiping the cache.
6. Do it whenever you want update to the latest nightly.
Here is the Video for the tutorial to get updates: (Thanks to Deep Singhal)

Like the post if it helped.
Enjoy the Lollipop and CM12!!!
*solved* Latest official LineageOS, can't write inside the Android "Download" folder
Hey there,
i just flashed my old Nexus4 from stock 5.1 to official LineageOS 7.1.2. Its the first time i did this so maybe something went wrong on the way. Everything works fine, as far as i can see, but i have a big problem and am not sure how to solve it.
It seems that i cant write into the android "download" folder. Everytime i try to download things with chrome or from my GDrive, the download starts, pauses immediately, is set to "on queue" and gets canceled after a minute or so. Also i was not able to delete the lineageOS rom.zip i put there for the installation process. I tried it via the TWRP filebrowser and was able to delete the rom.zip, so this must be a android problem. I tried to find a solution on google but i dont really know what to search for. Just want to check here first if there is another way to solve this problem without having to flash it again. I also dont have a "Downloads" icon in my App-Drawer, dont now if this matters or not. I do can download and install Apps via Appstore or download a podcast via app.
I used the "Open GApps nano" package to install the Google apps.
I hope you can understand the problem.
Greetings and have a nice weekend!
Edit: Okay, just solved the problem myself by deleting the "Download" folder via the TWRP filebrowser. Seems to work now, hope it says that way.
Original ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...loat-7-0-920-5-w8-f-i-november-patch.3649798/
I removed several apps in the ROM including a very annoying DiagMonAgent app that caused it to continuously show popup notifications.
Here is a complete list of apps I removed from this ROM: http://dr.mywebcommunity.org/g920w8/debloat/20210831-samstock-debloat-results.html
My phone works super well with this setup.
Download information:
Location: androidfilehost.com
File name: 20210831-1914-sst05-safe.zip
File size: 1.4 Gb
Information
I did not include the AROMA options for different phone vendors so if you really need those files, please use original rom. I uploaded this rom for my peronal use and because I am trying to make a debloated rom and bring the size of the zip file back down to under 1 Gb but I have several issues with required apks causing bootloops. So for now, this is a fully functional re-packed rom. I do plan to re-pack the phone vendors in a futur aroma setup but for now, I am still struggling to debloat this rom entirely. I just needed a base stock rom with as little modification as possible and this is the only ROM I found to fit this category. I am fully opened to receive any kind of help or assistance. The goal is to change the ZIP file only through my Windows computer, change any files through Notepad++ if necessary.
If you want details of what has been done in the ROM, please refer to the original author's thread.
GOAL OF THIS RE-PACK
My goal is to keep the original system but remove every other useless things. I want to drop the ROM size to under 1 Gb. I want to remove all Samsung and Google apps that are not necessary for the system to work. If people want Google Play, I want to simply download it on Open GApps. Of course, for now, I have been unsuccessfully removing other apps and had several boot loops, this is the only package I managed to re-pack that has a successfull boot and work well with my needs.
Why use an old 7.0 version?
Honestly? Because everything! Bluetooth connection, camera, stability. Everything works. The only VERY annoying things I hate about v7.0 are:
PROBELM: Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode does NOT work. Apps compatible with PiP will not display any PiP content such as floating video call windows.
SOLUTION: The only similar effect you can have is by enabling in the dev options the "Force activities to be resizable" at the very bottom. Then, in an app you want to have displayed in a floating window, tap on your "All apps" button and drag your app's window on the little square that says "Open in pop-up view".
PROBLEM: Dark modes for apps like GMail and the user interface is not supported unless you seriously start to tinker arround with very creative workarrounds I have not tested.
SOLUTION: I did not test any.
Kernel Source
The kernel supplied in this re-pack is the original kernel from SamStock's original package (G920W8) with no changes. Based off SamStock's thread which states:
Untouched. Completely stock out of the latest zip from sammobile.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So source is based off original Samsung Kernel Source.
ROOT Magisk
This rom is NOT ROOTED. I removed the outdated supplied Magisk from the original ROM since I prefer to use the latest available version that works without any issues. Just remember to rename the Magisk APK file's extension to ".zip" and flash after flashing this rom. I also use the original APK file to install after first boot because the zip only enables root access but the APK installs the Magisk manager app and enables the popup message to grant root permissions to apps. It is not a requirement since Magisk will download the app automatically when you try to open it the first time, but it just makes you spend less time waiting for the automatic download and installs the app immediately. Installing the APK manually will require a reboot.
AdAway
This is the goto app to remove annoying ads in almost all apps. ROOT is required. To install, head to ApkMirror and download version 4.3.6. That's the latest version that still works very well on Android v7.0. You will be required to do 2 reboots, one after installing the app and enabling adblock and one for updating the hosts file.
Google
You will have a long update list to go through your initial boot to update all apps from Google App Store INCLUDING the app store itself. Please pay attention to Google Services notification because you may need to manually update Google Services if it does not do it on it's own for apps to work such as GMail and other Google apps.
I suggest you disable the "upday" app which Google Update installs. I hate this app so much that I disable the notification, force stop AND disable the app. I have not found any solution yet to prevent this app from being installed.
XPosed Framework
You need the sdk24 version. It works and boots without any problems BUT, it's old and I found it to be pretty much useless. Some stuff such as the Dark mode for GMail module does not work anymore. So I do not recommend you to install XPosed unless you already are familiar with modules you want to use and already know that is working.
What I wil NOT do (unsupported models)
I own only the W8 version of the phone so any other models I cannot support. BUT, I can say this, you can refer to the debloated list above to remove the apps from the ZIP file and repackage the file yourself for your model by downloading the right version on the original author's mod page. As I mentioned, this is a safe debloat list where the phone successfully boots and setups.
I cannot test phone calls and SMS because I do not use this function on my phone. I use a SIP phone service through GrandStream Wave and VoIP.ms. So if you have any issues concerning phone calls or SMS, please comment or check the list of removed apps above and mention to me what is needed and I will post a new upload with the included package. While you may be waiting for my fix, I suggest you use the original author's files.
KNOWN ISSUES
You will need to install another launcher to be able to change wallpaper since I removed some of Samsung's core apps which were linked to the Samsung store including the wallpaper switcher. I recommend the Microsoft Launcher which is entirely free and has all the basic functions including notification dots and icon pack themes.
INSTALLATION
• Backup your system and files
• Boot in TWRP (Hold Volume Up+Home Button+Power Button)
• Format and advance wipe everything
• Install zip file
• Optional: Install Magisk (rename apk extension to zip)
• Reboot System
Stuck in a bootloop or unresponssive phone?
Hard reboot your phone by holding Volume Down+Home Button+Power Button. Once the screen goes black, immediately Hold Volume Up+Home Button+Power Button and you will be back in TWRP. If it fails, simply repeat the Volume Down hard reboot until you get the timing right with Volume Up afterwards. That's what I do and it works but hopefully, this should NOT happen because it does not on my end.
Permission: I requested month's ago permission from the author and never got an answer so I presume that the project is abandonned or not followed anymore. So if ever the author somehow has specific requests or want's me to remove this, I will do so without hesitating after contacting me through PM.
