Sounds like the app had rights it shouldn't have. What was the name of the download manager?
If I were you I would backup all your the you've downloaded and then do a factory reset, maybe try wiping the cache first before you do it though.
I assume you're not rooted? Otherwise this would be an easy fix.

Name was...Download Service!
I did reset to factory defaults...now everything is working fine...and yeah I've rooted my phone...
Can you please tell me the best way to backup data

[Q] Deleted all web browsers on android

I deleted the default browser from my lg optimus m for metropcs after root. thought i had a back up for the root, but didn't, and restored to factory settings, now i don't have any web browser at all, and android market does not work. it starts downloading an app, and goes to 100%, afterwards the application crashes and there is nothing on the phone and nothing in downloading list anymore..it just vanishes.. also, i have gmail on the phone but it does not show any new mail. although it does go the inbox...Navigation does not work either.is this because i do not have a web browser? youtube does work.
I tried downloading web browser on the sd card from another phone and putting it on my phone, but i cannot see it at all.
What can i do to to put a web browser without using the market? and once i do get a browser will this fix all the other stuff?
I didn't really delete anything after root other than bloatware.

You Can Always Make A Nandroid Backup & Flash Another Rom, Either That, Or Try To Flash The Newest "Gapps-20101218" Also You Could Try The Skyfire Browser!!
Hope This Helps You!!

I did the same thing....easiest thing to do is remove all you root info, super user and any other things that were not on the phone. take it back to metro and have them replace it. say that you were just on the phone with someone the phone turned off and now you are missing apps. they replaced mine with no issues. or you can find the LGNPST 1.2 store model and both the LGNPST components 5.0.12.0 and generics 5.0.10.0 restore your phone. you will also need the files to reload the stock software.....

You could pull the browser.apk from another rom and push it to the phone in adb or make a flashable zip or just reflash the rom.

[Q] Market thinks its updating recently installed apps?

Hey guys. I've scoured the web and haven't found anything on this so thought id ask the experts.
When I install a new app from Market, the notification bar shows the "successfully installed Droid DJ Lite" popup for the new app, but also displays "Updating Droid DJ Lite".
Clicking on the "Updating" entry brings up the market page for a totally different app. In this case it pulled up Google Reader.
This happens with every app I install, and clicking "updating..." brings up a random app every time.
Just wondering if anyone else has seen this or knows what's causing it.
I'm running kh2 with CRT on/off with drhonks kh4 kernal, and ext4 is enabled.
I recovered my apps via Titanium Backup after flashing, and have run fox permissions via rom manager.
Thanks in advance.

umm honestly i havent heard people using rom manager for this phone...best to do it the long way cwm under advance..nonetheless a factory reset from the phone should do the trick..its a hassle but you got your apps backup

or you can just install the market again ill try that first

you might want to try the factory reset, wipe cache, and dalvik cache after you flash a rom and before you use tb to restore all your apps.

I should clarify that I was only using Rom Manager to fix permissions, and wasn't actually managing any roms with it.
I flashed back to ICBINB and ran back through the whole process of installing KH2 again this morning, and then wiped cache's and data, and it looks to have fixed this issue.
Linda is still whining about space on my SD card, but I've figured that one out before.

Android Market Missing?

Today I went to update the apps on my TF101 and couldn't find the market. The link to it on my home screen said that the app was missing. It's not showing up at all in my installed apps list or in Super Manager.
Has anyone heard of this happening?

Market for TF101 available?
Wow, no one. Okay, then it must be something I did (though I don't know what).
What's the best way to re-load the Honeycomb version of the market?

I have never heard of the Market app just disappearing (not to say it can't happen). Try this one to see if it work (it's v 3.3.12)
I installed it as an update but since you're without a Market I'm not sure how it will work for you.

BTW do you have root?

I do indeed have root. I'm worried that some app I have has deleted the market on me. Removing a bunch of apps while I try to find out. I only need communication and some pentest apps anyway on it.
Downloading the linked file now to give it a test. Thanks for the help!

Well, it worked (installed and connects), but it keeps force closing when I try to update or install any apps.

Try clear data for market, also clear cache for download manger

No joy.
Should I be moving the Market apk to a system app directory? I'd heard before that it needs to be in /system/apps/ somewhere. Or does it install itself to that location?

I have a com.android.vending-1.apk in data/app with Permission rw, r, r
(don't see a Vending.apk like on my phone in system/app).

I don't know what to do, then. Can't get new apps installed with the Market force closing on me. Can't update old either.

Backup up apps and data, you might need to do a factory reset.
Are you on stock ROM or custom ROM?

Stock ROM. Haven't seen a custom ROM for the TF101 that seemed worth it.
Backing up when I get home from work. We'll see if a factory reset will work.
Thanks for the help troubleshooting, baseballfanz.

Well, crap. I factory reset, and I still have no Market.
I definitely need help now. I need to find a Market APK that works.

This is the version that was officially updated on my TF
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16959871/Market-8009011.apk
Yeah factory reset will not restore anything deleted. It might wipe out certain data/settings that was conflicting with why it was FC.

Still no good. Constant FC.
This sucks.

Not sure if this will help. On some phone going into settings and choosing English (US) solved fc for market. Also I remember a member who had a rouge app causing the fc. Don't remember the exact app of hand

This is a tablet, not a phone. Also, I factory reset it, so no apps on it except the ones it shipped with.

Does anyone have access to the stock TF101 ROM?

To heck with stock. Installed Revolution. Good to go!

Were you able to resolve this? It seems I'm having the exact same issue. I even installed the above market with no luck.
Thanks in advanced.

Do phone carriers have access to system files?

Good day to you all. i'm the owner of a virgin mobile venture phone. (version 2.3.5) i recently upgraded to a new device, but on the venture i have very important memos that are saved in the system folder called: "com.m7.juke.memo"
i tried to root on my own to gain access to that folder using "baiduroot" but supersu fails to install on all versions. im new to rooting so have no idea why it doesnt work.
i tried the fixes that i found online, like downloading the 2.79 version etc. but nothing works. i'm also confused on weather im actually rooted or not, because while an app in the play store called "fast root checker" says i am, many more apps including "root checker basic" says im not.
i'm a writer and my full manuscript is in that memo folder, and at this time an agent wants to see the full manuscript. so im really in a depressed/panic state right now.
i'm not tech savvy at all, and at this point i really dont have time to try to figure out how to get in that folder.
so what i want to know is: if this rooting thing doesnt work which it looks like it's not. then does the phone carrier have access to those system files incase of emergency?
at this time i dont have access to pc to try to root from there.
any help you can provide me will really be appreciated, thanks.

I don't really understand the problem. If you still have your old phone there should be no problems getting the data by just using that memo app, or what did I miss?

Thanks for your reply. Well actually the data is in a system file folder. It's a stock memo app that came preinstalled on the phone. And it has no backup or sync option. The phone doesn't either, its very old. Basically I actually had to do a factory reset last month because of a boot loop problem, and I was gonna try to use recovering software to try to recover the data, but after further investigation I found the memo app in the system folder and the date it shows on the app is the same date I made edits to my manuscript, so I figured it might be a chance it was never deleted. So I want to get in there and see if it was still there before using recovery software.

Oh ok, now I see your problem.
I'm sorry to say that all your work got wiped in the factory reset unless you can find it with some data rescue app. Unfortunately this will become very hard if the phone have also been used after that, cause there's a chance it's been overwritten.
You won't find any data in system partition. All app data, even for system apps is written to data partition because system is always read only unless you have root and change things in system.
A factory reset wipes data and cache, but does not touch system because it's never supposed to change (read only).

O ok. Well if that's the case I hope you can help me figure out this root problem so I can try a couple of rescue apps. I rooted with baiduroot the other day, but SuperSU is not installing on my phone after. What could be the problem? I want to root so I can try a couple of Android based recovering apps. Of course I would just connect to PC and download a recovery app from there, but Unfortunately I don't have access to my PC right now, so I'm hoping to root and use an android based recovering app.
