[Q] PowerAmp - UID mismatch issue - Settings getting reset - General Questions and Answers

I'm having a serious issue with PowerAmp app. My settings are getting reset to default every time the program is completely closed (either by a task manager or after a reboot). Not only that, the change log and Thank you popups come up every startup after the complete shutdown. Pls help resolve.
On contacting the Dev, he says its a UID mismatch issue and it can be solved by uninstalling and reinstalling the program. However that has not fixed the issue.

Strange, I'm using the PowerAmp app and I don't experience this. Have you tried contacting the Dev again about this?
Have you tried downloading it again and then installing it?
One possibility is that when you re-install it you are restoring corrupt settings back onto your device.
Have you tried a hard reset/factory reset then installing it again to see if it works?

It's working now. I used root explorer and navigated to the dbdata folder. Then I deleted the folder corresponding to Poweramp. Since then settings are not getting reset every time I end the app using a task manager.

None of the above works for me:
- uninstalled PowerAMP
- uninstalled PowerAMP Full Version Unlocker
- Deleted sdcard/Android/data/com.maxmpz.audioplayer directory with Super Manager
- reset the phone
- installed PowerAMP
- installed PowerAMP Full Version Unlocker
Same problem! Any ideas?

You will need a file explorer like root explorer since you are rooted. You got the wrong folder. You have to first uninstall full version. Then go to dbdata folder which is above the sdcard folder. Go to the power amp folder and delete the shared peers file. After that reinstall power amp it should be fine..

@mithunjo - you are so right! Super Manager was not it, Root Explorer did it. Thanks!

im having the same problem with power amp. however i couldnt find the folder "dbdata".i evn tried to use the search feature in root explorer to locate the folder but no use!. any suggestions?
im using sony ericsson official 2.1 firmware 0.24 and am rooted

same problem here... will try... thanks!

The dbdata folder is above the internal sdcard folder. In that delete the preferences file in the power amp folder which goes something like maxmp.player..

If you don't want to spend money for the 'Root Explorer', like me, get the 'Terminal Emulator'. It's free, and will give you a terminal interface. Open the app, press the menu button and choose the option to show the keyboard. The following commands will 1) give root permissions to the app and 2) delete the settings folder of PowerAMP:
su
rm -r /dbdata/databases/com.maxmpz.audioplayer
Thats it. The folder is gone. In my case I had to deinstall poweramp before this procedure, and reinstalled afterwards. Finally I can use PowerAmp again.

I've also had that problem (Galaxy S with Darky 8.0 (JPY) ) and deleting dbdata\databases\com.maxmpz.audioplayer helped me. I didn't even have had to uninstall and install PowerAMP.

Tried deleting only the folder with RootExplorer without uninstalling and then reinstalling PowerAMP.
I'll see if this is enough.

I have a rooted htc Inspire running CyanogenMod nightlies.
I have used RootExplorer to look for dbdata and have not been able to find it. I've been through every file with RExplorer and have also used it to search for the file. Both ways I have come up empty. Am I missing something?
And I did read the enitire thread first
Thanks for any help.

[Q] Howto remove twitter, facebook and other bloatware

Hello,
I flashed to leedroid 1.3 and i use Titanium backup to remove it like they wrote on the Forum, but it doesn't remove them.
It gets rebooted and then hangs with black screen and android warning picture.
I need to remove the battery to restart the phone.
Any other ideas to remove twitter/facebook/Peep and other social media apps.
THNX for your knowledge input.
you can also manualy remove the apps by deleting them (or renaming their extention e.g. .apk -> apkx) with a root explorer, for example 'root explorer' or 'ES File Explorer' in the /system/app folder.
I can remove it, but it returns after reboot + on "pm uninstall com.twitter.android" I get "Failed"
You need to root your phone first. Visit the forum section dedicated to your phone, read a bit, read a bit more, root it, then wipe that bloatware off.
@Captkiwi just download z4root it works with 99% of phones-use it and buy rootexplorer, open it, go to system/app, click mount r/w and delete bloatware Good luck
Making phone to be S-OFF is crucial. This thread helped me S-OFFing it properly (made bootable USB with unetbootin), and now this procedure works... Previously it didn't while the phone was still S-ON.
Hope this helps people, been struggling with my phone for a month now... Finally it seems I control my hardware
Make sure USB Debugging is on
Install z4root by downloading the apk and allowing non-market apps. Find it on sd card and install with longpress or something.
After you root, install titanium backup free version.
You can use this to backup and then uninstall all the bloat you want.
Sent from my M860 using XDA App
Ok - looks like there are 2 main options
1) Install Titanium backup and delete bloatware from there (Rooted Phone)
..........This option doesn't appear to work all the time - is it because the bloatware doesn't show up or because its listed with and unusual name like---- SNS 1.0 -- that twitter hides behind?
2) Use "a" file explorer on a rooted phone and go to---- system/app ---and find the apps and delete them ....nope still cant find the bloatware....
.........try another folder ..... /data/app/ ....still nothing
Anyone got any more ideas?

[Q] Cannot Update/Install Apps: How to fix appname unsuccessful?

Has anyone found a quick way to fix the "appname unsuccessful" installer failure on the Xoom? I cannot install or update any apps as of this morning.
A Google of the problem does not come up with anything Xoom/Honeycomb specific but says that on other devices the procedure is to delete smdl2tmp1.asec from the .android_secure folder. However I cannot find this folder or file? I have Astro and ES explorer but neither can see the folder (I have show system files on) and nor can windows when it is connected by USB.
My Xoom is un-rooted and I cannot install any apps like root explorer (which may help) due to the fault.
Apparently a hard reset fixes it to but frankly it took so long to set the thing up how I want, I would like to avoid this if at all possible!
Thanks in advance,
Jim
Have you gone to settings/apps/manage apps/all tab/market/force stop/wipe data
Thanks for the reply.
Sorry, I should have mentioned but I have tried that - not working.
I am currently in process of backing up all 30 ish Gb to laptop to do factory reset if I cannot find an answer by this evening :-(

Quite likely. When you re-installed it, did you make it a system app?
yes i believe it it is a system app

Try making it a system app. Right now its probably installed as an update to the system app, but its better if it remains by itself. This can be done in many ways. You could use Titanium Backup, or simply place the app in /system/app/ (and set the permissions).
dont work

i tryed to copy and paste it using es file explorer but it said that it failed. Any ways even if i do get past that how do i set the permissions ?
Or maybe delete the whole apk with titanium backup or a root explorer, reboot and install it again.
Happened to me with apex launcher and this solved the problem

Titanium Backup - Select the app in the list and choose "integrate update into ROM".
Manual Way - Use Root Explorer, etc. to copy and paste the file in /system/app/. Make sure you mount it as R/W first. Using Root Explorer, long press the file and choose permissions. It should be set to "rw-r--r--".
Reboot after either of these methods.
thx

[Q] Cannot Delete Apps or Google User Account even after flashing ROM

Hey everyone,
My friend gave me his tab p1000... but I cannot seem to remove apps or even google user account even after i have:
- Reset the phone
- Flashed stock rom v5 ROM with ODIN (with repartition and also flashed dbdata).
- I also tried NAND Erase All, which soft bricked the tab but i was able to get it back.
Even with all this, all the apps are still there.. when the tab loads up.
The Apps keep crashing every minute though.. so they are not stable.
--- Things Note:
1.
After flashing stock rom, when it enters recovery i get the following errors:
part(1): Checksum error
MMC verification failed
and
cannot find: /preload/app folder
2.
There are some weird files under the internal memory root folder that cannot be deleted.
Well you can delete them but they come right back up when you remount the internal drive(16gb).
Also the application folders cannot be deleted.. they reappear once you remount the internal drive.
the files are:
- Copy of Shortcut to (1/2/3/4).lnk
- glweax.exe
- glweax.scr
- x.exe
- xxx.dll
- zjroic.exe
- zjroic.scr
-xjdqob.exe
3.
There is an app called - Perfect Applock - that might have something to do with this.. Not sure.
I have read in forums, to put the phone in flight mode and restart it, then try to go to app manager within 30sec to uninstall the app.
i tried that but it still doesnt work. the App still exists..
btw, i have also tried removing the apps via app manager, that doesnt work. although it says sucessfully uninstalled.
when you reboot the tab, all the apps are present.
4.
I installed root app using superoneclick so that i can install a root explorer app - but it kept crashing.
---
My guess, is that there is a virus, or something that is recreating the apps. or not granting access to where the apps are stored (guessing in /preload/app).
i have read forums and some people said it might be a faulty internal storage.. i did the checks(some commands using adb) to verify but it was negative.
so i dont think the internal storage is bad.
Right now i am stuck... the tab has stock rom v5 installed right now.. not rooted and with 3e recovery.
any help will be greatly appreciated.. thank you in advance.
you are in wrong device section.... go to this Samsung Galaxy Tab section for better help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=752
btw, those file that you mention is a virus... so check your pc.. it might already infected your pc with it...

[SOLVED] I Softbricked my phone, need some help!

-----SOLVED NOTE----
I did a reflash of the stock rom one more time with ODIN and it seems to have solved the problem. However I still have absolutely no idea about what was wrong with the phone, or why the first successful flash did not take care of the problem.
And a piece of advice, do not edit platform.xml. I swear I edited it correctly and then reverted to the correct settings, did using 3 spaces instead of a tab caused an error??? This will remain a mystery for me...
---------------------------
Hello All,
So I have the Verizon S3 i535, I edited the platform.xml file to give write permissions to external sd card and all hell broke loose after I reverted those changes. All of a sudden every app is getting that "unfortunately stopped" message. I cannot send any file to neither the internal nor the external sd card from my pc, file browsers cannot read any file on any of these cards, I tried pushing with adb but that does not work either. I tried factory reseting, and hard reseting to no avail.
I tried reflashing the stock rom with ODIN but after the flashing process nothing changes? (Does that have to do with me being on NE1).
I do not understand what is going on with the phone right now, flashing should have restored everything, I still get com.google.process.gapps stopped working then all sorts of apps stopping in the same manner, I still can't copy any file to any sort of storage on the phone.
Any idea what has happened and how I could fix it?
Thanks in advance.
That type of editing is not something I have done on Android.
Is there any chance it is a permissions issue and could be fixed with root permissions to a file manager or with adb?

I would be willing to try that however I cannot connect to play store, neither the internet app connects to the internet so I cannot install apk's. I cannot "push" apks to the storage too I tried it via pc and via adb. So I cannot even install a root file manager.
Kingo root however accesses the system (through the pc) and manages to install itself. I have no idea how it can do it.

Glad to see you solved the problem.
I was speaking of using an adb shell to change the permissions of platform.xml to 0644 (-rw-r--r--) if they were set to something else. (I just checked my /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml to verify that was the settings on my device. I wasn't any more specific before because I hadn't checked the file locations nor its permissions.)
