[Q] PowerAmp - UID mismatch issue - Settings getting reset

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.

Anyone try the ICS Music app yet?

I got it to install after uninstalling the old then rebooting, but i get fc's when trying to play music. Anyone else have better luck than me? Im on prime 2.02 btw. Oh and to get it to sync you have to clear data once or twice until it asks you to sync your gmail acct.

Doesn't work... Apparently its honeycomb in general, I checked the Xoom and Galaxy Tab forums and they're having the same FC problems as we are.

I did, it's pretty nice...the layout of the playlist (if you have less that 5) is kind of weird...It looks a lot like the old one, but smaller icons and text...
latest Prime if that helps anybody...

i have the same problem, fc when trying to play music.....now the question : has someone get the original HC music apk to revert to the first one ? Just to avoid revert to nandroid or reinstall rom...thanks

Here it is. Pulled this out of Revolution rom. I think you will have to uninstall the ICS app and then reinstall the stock app with Titanium Backup in order for it to work.

Work around for the FC's, just hit shuffle all and profit

Wouldn't exactly call that a workaround... yes, you can shuffle, but anything else is still causing forced closes.

thanks a lot Getlaid, but i didn't manage to install it using titanium back up......(i'm using the free version), and a normal installation abort.....

Try deleting /system/app/Music2.apk with a root capable file explorer like ES File Explorer or Root Explorer, reboot, and then replace with the stock Music2.apk

Thanks! I think the power is in the reboot! Worked nicely afterwards.

I got it to install, but I don't see the login option in settings for music beta. (
Edit: fixed by clearing data, force stop, then launch.

You are likely missing a necessary library to make them work. Capture the logcat and it will likely be fairly clear where it's crashing (unless the APKs are obfuscated).

Ok i will give that a try thx

[Q] (Q) Restore deleted Sense Music App

Hello All,
yesterday i installed Android Revolution HD 6.5.2 on my Sensation.
Overall, it was going well, except for the music player that was always force closed everytime i tried to play music.
My bad, i accidentally uninstalled the Music App from my phone. I tried to restore that, but i can't figure out how to do it.
Then i tried re-Flashing the ROM. Before reFlashing, i backed up all data on my phone using ClockworkMod. After i flashed the ROM, the music app returned. After that, i restored my phone using backup file i created in CWM before.
After Restoration complete, i cant find the music app just like when i deleted it.
I guess CWM backed up all the data and my phone's state including all the Apps and Sense UI.
Anyone can help me restore my music app?
thanks

A Clockwork mod backup totally backs up a rom, bit for bit. If you restore a CWM backup, you will lose any currently installed rom setup. Just take the Sense Music apk out of a rom.zip and drop it in /system/app using Root Explorer. Then reboot and you're probably set. Make sure you set the app's permissions to RW R R or it won't work (all doable in Root Explorer).

i have pulled two files from Rom.Zip :
com.htc.musicwidget.apk
htcmusicenhancer.apk
and put them in /system/app folder.
I Also set the permission too and then restarted my phone.
But i still cant find music app, did i miss another file?

[APP][Launcher][Stock Gingerbread 2.3] Stock Gingerbread launcher

Ok, here i have tried to port the stock gingerbread launcher, tell me if it works or not, and if you think its good, hit the thanx button.
thanx for viewing

When I try to install, it says that the app doesn't was installed, so I went to Root Explorer, and I put it in /system/app and change the permissions to rw-r--r-- and the problem was solved ^.^
Thanks a lot

No definitely do not delete the real launcher. Dalvik shouldn't be causing the issue as its just cache. Sometimes this happens, the app just doesn't work. Um...try a different app, although es file usually works on all my devices. Or...you could tty flashing it although I have no idea how to make a flash able zip.

nice one for backup
