I installed Angry Birds Star Wars free version yesterday. Played fine. I used Lucky Patcher to remove the ads, but I used the "permanent" patch which writes to the dalvik cache. I later un-installed Angry Birds. Then opened Link2SD and used it's option to clean up sd-ext and dalvik cache. Now when i try to reinstall Angry Birds I always get an "out of memory" error. Doesn't matter what source the apk came from.
Any ideas what's going on?
I thought about wiping the whole dalvik cache but didn't know if it would matter.

Unmount your SD card and install Angry Birds, remount SD card and feel free to then move the app to the SD card if you would like. I just did this tonight to install Angry Birds Seasons on my phone and both it and Angry Birds on my wifes phone today as both phones kept giving errors when trying to install.
I installed the full version of Angry Birds on my phone when it first came out and never had this issue because I just restore from Titanium Backup when I change ROMs.
Hey guys I have a huge problem with Angry Birds. I flash my ROMs like I always do and I always do a batch backup using Titanium Backup. After restoring the data, Angry Birds keeps on force closing. Am I SoL and have to start the game from scratch?
Did you have the game installed to your sd card when you backed it up? If so just move the game back to your sd card.
You only need to copy a couple of files from your backup to have the saved levels. It's named something like "highscores" or similar. I can look it up if you can't find it. All you do is copy the backups of those files in to replace the ones in the installed version and you're back in business.
As far as I know, it wasn't installed on the SD card. I'll try moving the app to the SD card though.
I'll take a look and see if I can find the file.
Edit: No luck.
Have u done a reboot?
XOOM

If you mean by uninstall Angry Birds, then reboot, then install Angry Birds, then restore data, nope. Doesn't hurt to try I guess.
Are you restoring the app+data, or are you restoring the app through the market and the data through TB?

Tried both methods. Basically, I think it's the data that got corrupted and is forceclosing Angry Birds. All my Angry Birds don't work btw, not just Angry Birds.
Ok I just tried again on a fresh ROM install. Downloaded Angry Birds, all three versions from the Market. Load the game and it was fine. Restoerd data using Titanium Backup and it force close. Looks like I have to start from scratch

You don't need to start over. I don't really understand what causes the problem but I think it has something to do with flashing from 2.2 to 2.3 and then going back.
To fix it you need to flash the last rom that Angry Birds was working on. Then restore with Titanium Backup. Use Root Explorer and go to /data/data. Then find com.rovio.angrybirds (or angrybirdsrio or angrybirdsseasons) Once you are there click files. Copy and paste highscores.lua to your SD card.
Now flash whatever rom you want. Download Angry Birds from the market. Open the game (you must open it as it creates folders when you first lauch it). Now exit the game, go back to Root Explorer. Copy highscores.lua from your SD card and paste it in the Angry Birds directory where you found it. Then you must long press on the file and click change permissions. The following boxes must be checked:
User: Read, Write Execute
Group: Read, Write
Others: Read, Write
This will restore the points you have on each level as well as all of your stars. It does not restore fruit.
One other thing....if you are having problems with multiple Angry Birds Games you can create 3 folders on your SD card, name them (AB, AB Seasons, AB Rio). Flash the ROM where they were working and copy the highscores.lua files from each one into the correct folder on the SD card. This will make it easy to keep track of which file is for which game.
Will installing oICSv41 wipe the multiple packs needed for games(shadowgun, brothers in arms, gta 3,etc.) And if so how would j go about preserving them. Thanks guys

you mean the content that's downloaded after you install the game? that should all be housed in /sdcard, which changing roms doesn't touch. just wipe data/factory data reset in recovery, wipe cache/dalvik and install. you will need to reinstall the apps again, but the additional data should remain intact.
although you may want to backup with titanium or mybackup root to ensure your saved game data isn't lost.
So ive been on octane 3 for a while nd its starting to feel sluggish any tune up I can do without having to reflash
Clearing your cache partition and dalvik cache in CWM - along with removing unused apps is probably your only option.
Can u tell me exactly what im deleting I dont want to delete important data
just apps that youve installed that you dont use, games etc.

You need to reboot into CWM and clear cache partition, then go into advanced and clear dalvik cache, reboot phone and let sit 10 minutes to rebuild caches.
Hey all,
I regularly install and uninstall new apps, causing new dex files to be generated for apps I may have already uninstalled. I am running low on phone memory (Samsung Galaxy Ace), and the dalvik cache is taking up a lot of space.
My question is, can I delete my Dalvik cache without using a new ROM? And will this free some space, or will everything be generated again?
Thanks.

If you're running titanium backup, it can go through and clean up your dalvik for you. Additionally, if you're using CWM it's easy to go in and clean your dalvik without any complications.
Do it.
