i delete couple of items using titanium back up. and now my settings wont open. its giving me FC.
Anyone has thesame problem or any solution or any backfile so i can reinstall it?
Thanks
i deleted some com.lg** files then exit titanium backup, and cant open Settings now.
hmmm only chance might be to restart or make an emergency restore
thats what im thinking... as my last resort.
do it, you will lost nothing and then re root, I personally screwed the call log section is crashing so will restore
You deleted Lghiddenmenu and one more called something like it. You can delete alot of system apps. But keep those two.

Hi all,
Since yesterday, I can't sync Gmail, I cant actually download from the market (although I can initiate), and I cant open Google Talk (it opens for a split second then closes, no force quit or error messages at all). I have searched for a solution all morning. I have tried going to google and google storage in applications and clearing cache/data to no help. I even went back to a nandroid from 2 weeks ago, no help there either. The only thing I have done is accidently change my password online from a PC. I changed it back 5 minutes later to the original (which is the one the phone uses). I am using Fresh 2.0D. PS yes I wiped when I went back to an old nandroid backup...Yes my sync settings are correct....
Please help!!!
format c: its your only option now... Sorry mang...

So even though you changed the password back to the original, did you redo the password on the phone? It would be weird if even though they are the same "string" they were still different on a database level somewhere. Depending on how it's done, the password checking that is, it could be possible that old string != new string even though string = string.... you know what I mean?
I would try to redo the google setup from square 1. not sure how you go about that other than resetting the phone.
Well, I had gone back to the nandroid from 2 weeks prior. I also did a "factory reset" which runs you thru the whole google thing and makes you put your pwd again etc...so that was no go...
only thing i havent done (not that it should make a difference although I will try it in a bit) is to do a fresh 2.0d from scratch install, although i doubt this will do anything since the ohter 2 options didnt work..

Format C? Are you saying to wipe? Tried that no luck..
Well, a fresh install of fresh 2.0d did the trick so some file must have been corrupted I can only assume... Thank God for Titanium Backup restored all my backed up apps and not much time lost. Thanks for your help.

lol he was pullin your chain.
but really, if you see something on your computer in C:\WINDOWS\
and its like a folder called "system32".... thats a virus. you should get rid of it because C:\WINDOWS\system is already there.
Edit: ok... don't do this. I lied
I removed all the Facebook crap from my phone when I first got it, but now I'm putting it up on eBay and I'd like to put it back on for the sale.
I backed it up then uninstalled it using Titanium Backup, so I just went into TB and tried to restore Facebook for HTC Sense but it isn't working. It just says it's restoring and sits there forever, nothing actually happens. Installing from unknown sources is turned on in my settings and I've tried rebooting.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem, in fact titanium was unable to restore any of the system apps. I had a nandroid backup and i used nandroid browser (available on market) and extracted the right apk's and put them in their respective folder and rebooted. Eureka! Everything was just like before. It Works! Try it out if you can.
Yeah TB seems to hate all my system apps
I think I'll just load a ROM onto it or something, might sell for a little more like that anyway
Have you tried the "restore missing apps + data" option?
And I think because it was a system app and you uninstalled it, the only fix I could think of is put the apk in the /system/app folder & change permissions (if you have a backup of the actual apk files taken from the /system/app folder). Or I would just go ahead with a clean flash of the stock rom. Atleast it would technically be factory set and ready to sell.

In the end I just reinstalled the stock ROM
I've searched several forums on multiple sites trying to figure out how to root my gf's Huawei mytouch 4G. Any suggestions or ideas?
I'd like to know as well
You can root it here

Cool! Good job!! Can't wait for my wife to get home so I can try it on her phone (she'll kill me if I brick it though!)
edit: Actually I'm kinda scared to try this. Looking at the .bat file though all it does is appear to fastboot off an image, it doesn't push any files on until the root is complete. Is this correct? Meaning if for some reason the initial boot/root attempt fails, I should be able to recover?

It doesn't actually flash the image permantently, simply boots off of it once. Once you reboot its gone off the device.

I did it, it worked like a charm. You are my HERO!
Edit: Now the work of removing bloat. I hope I don't remove the wrong thing and end up unable to boot. I'm afraid to remove some of these builtin TmobileMall and TmobileContacts type things. Some stuff like Slacker I had to rm by hand, Titanium backup couldn't do it -- it was installed in /data/app and /data/data but was a system app. Titanium backup could back it up but when I try to uninstall it couldn't find the apk. System app not located in /system. Wierd eh? Anywayz I'm afraid I'll blow away the wrong thing and won't be able to boot so I'm being cautious....

When you install an update to one of these apps lets use the, yahoo mail on for example, it will show in the /system/app or /data/app. The problem is the apk before the update is in /cust/t-mobile/us/app which is read only and unable to be mounted as R/W and that is why Titanium backup is unable to uninstall it.
I have tried moving it and deleting it manually with no luck. I have not tried through ADB yet but may give that a try next.

Ive done the same thing to my phone and im wondering were you ever able to get it running?
Using the Huawei MyTouch Q. Got the update. Old root doesn't work. Any ideas?
I decided to go back go Cyanogen and am having problems getting Titanium Backup to work properly.
It doesn't appear to be able to read my SD card. No apps show that have been backed up. And when I press the search icon, I get the error "The current backup location ("/mnt/extSdCard/TitaniumBackup") cannot be accessed.". I've tried /storage/sdcard1 and also /extSdCard, but none seem to work.
Any ideas out there?

Thanks for the reply, but nope. Tried that and it still doesn't work. The only screen I have in TB is the overview one. Not the typical 3 "tabs".

Thanks for trying! I hope someone else can help! I'm pretty much stuck right now until I get this this working. Nothing seems to make a difference.
Okay, this is weird. It's working now. Even though I rebooted multiple times, and tried every other option I could find, it just wouldn't work. Now all of a sudden it's working. Go figure!
Problem Solved
I used system app mover from play store to convert TB to a system app
This solved the issue. I had the exact same problem on Avatar and Pacman. So do that and it'll be all good.
On my (rooted) S7 I suddenly notices that the Google services and play store were GONE. After installing these from GAPPS, I notice that several apps are disappearing.
I don't know why, don't know how, but I do know it concerns both system apps as well as user apps.
eg: I lost Waze (user app) this morning and, after a reboot, es explorer (user app), Google pictures (system app) and the gallery (also system app).
What can I do to prevent this from happening again?
I did make a titanium backup and a TWRP backup, but of cause it's unacceptable to work with my phone: clicking on an icon has about 2% change that the app is gone!
I noticed others that have this problem too, but I have nothing installed to the external SD card (which, btw. is a pain in the @SS with marshmallow)
No one can help me?
Still on every reboot I lose apps, both user and system apps.
Annoyingly is also that titanium backup cannot restore system apps!
I had link 2nd and foldermount, but removed both before. They are not installed, but still this is happening.
Please, please help!
BTW: a factory reset won't get me my system apps back, right?
I'm also having the exact same problem. Tried to search for a solution but to no avail... This is so frustrating...
what apps are missing ?
i have not seen anything like that
Randomly any apps it feels like removing. System apps, user installed apps. Once my google play store got uninstalled.

u say u installed GAPPS , maybe thats the problem
Bright.light did, I didn't.
Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
I think this might be because I flashed ExtSD_Fix_rw-signed-v1.9b.zip
This is used to change the permissions for the external card.
It messes with /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml and /data/system/packages.xml
maybe that got wrong, so I made a factory reset and started all over. Now it works, even with xposed and root.
btw: It's only after I lost the play store/google services that I installed GAPPS, so GAPPS is not the problem.
Same here. I tried to revert to the packages.xml before the flash but it didn't work. Apps still getting uninstalled. So a factory reset did the trick for you? Did u flash ExtSD again after the reset?

No, I removed this ExtSD immediately, just to be sure that I won't flash it again.
For the moment I learn to live with this problem. It's possible because most sophisticated apps are already requesting the correct rights. Including the root capabilities it works as I like it to work.
When there is a better solution, I will TWRP backup and try that one, but this ExtSD is not the correct way.
I haven't found the thread, or else I would have put a warning in there too...
I have changed the permissions and ownership of the files in newer versions. Tonight I will release v2.8 with additional logging to help me finish this thing.
The ExtSD Fix thread is here.

Thank rufus! Still appreciate your work on this. Don't take it the wrong way that I'm blaming this app. Users install at their own risk, so it's all in the user. [emoji4]

No bad feelings ?
My stuff does not work as well as I want it to yet and that frustrates me quite a bit...
Please join the testing team to help. If you don't want to mess your system, nandroid backup before flash and then restore. I hope the apps disappear quickly though... I know it is a pain to loose data/settings/texts/call logs...

I didn't loose those things, however, since my backup was 'old', I just started all over, only retrieving some items from backup selectively.
No hard feelings for the ExtSD, I know it's my own risk
I do hope that the development of ExtSD will continue and that there will be a time that we beat this monster problem! :good: Or that Google finally understands that this is NOT wat we want!
btw: I have several apps which I cannot use anymore because of these ridiculous rights.:crying:
I have the same trouble with missing apps on my rooted 5.0 Lollipop phone.
I find that the missing apps usually have two copies of themselves in the data\app directory.
What I describe will apply to all updated system apps and user apps:
For example playstore is a system app but, after it is updated it is stored as data\app\com.android.vending-1 for the first update. Then data\app\com.android.vending-2 for the 2nd update.
Further updates will alternate between these two storage locations.
If something goes wrong and data\app\com.android.vending-1 does not get deleted you will have two copies of Playstore which I think will lead to a randomly disappearing Playstore.
I delete the oldest dated of the two storage locations and reboot phone. If still missing I reinstall the app and make sure there is only one copy in data\app directory, I will delete the oldest again.
I have auto update apps turned off to reduce the problem. I have a TWRP backup so I do not worry about messing up the phone.
Good Luck!
