[Q] Removing Apps with Titanium Backup

I am trying to remove apps from my HTC Hero (Sprint) by using Titanium Backup. I have the lasted Cyanogen ROM installed.
I have installed the BusyBox. I click on the app I want to remove and go down to Force Remove App (by recovery exploit).
It then reboots. However, it stays on the screen with the exclamation point and the android guy. When I hit a button on the phone and comes up with this:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package....
E:Signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
ClockworkMod Recovery v2.0.1.3​
Any suggestions?

Same problem here.
Suggestions would be appreciated.

Try This
This worked for me...let me know if it works for you...
Download BusyBox (by hitting Problems)
Go to Backup / Restore
Now just click an APP, don't hold it.
You Should be able to select Un-Install from here.
That's it!

Same problem here. Last proposed solution doesn't work, removed application is back after reboot.
Update:
Managed to remove Facebook using shell commands in ADB (http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/10050-how-to-uninstall-facebook-after-installing-gapps/)
I really hated that Facebook service running in the background, now it's gone!

Lastest Version
Are you running the lastest version of Recovery?

[Q] Help, No Play Store Installed

Hope someone out there can help this noob out.
I have a Galaxy Tab GT-p5110. Yesterday I rooted it, installed Titanium Backup and did a full backup.
I then installed CWM and managed to install cm-10.1.3 and a package of gapps.
Very happy so far to get all the bloatware off the unit but there is no play store in the gapps package.
I cant install any apps, I have tried to do this via the browser. it says installing etc but the app never appears.
when I try to update the rom via settings/about phone CyanogenMod Updates it downloads the new ROM and reboots but then aborts the install. When I try to install a gapps package it says it cant verify the signature file.
I guess the main fault is the lack of Play Store, without it you cant do anything.
I have Odin and cant find a file .md5 or tar file to install.
Edit: I have since found i can drop the Play Store .apk file and install it from the sd card, this process worked but when i try to open Play Store, it opens momentarily, then closes......
Any help much appreciated.

Hi nasheich and thanks for the reply.
I should have noted that i have a wifi only tab.
Went through your steps carefully a few times but Play Store still only opens for a brief second, then disapears, I didnt quite understand step 3, clear account. play store version is 4.3.10 and Android version is 4.2.2,
Kernel version
3.0.31-CM-gac1803c

Mon Sep23 18:38:24 PDT2013
Please help when you can, thanks and regards

Be sure you flashed the 4.2.2 gapps, the latest gapps (gapps-jb-20130813-signed.zip) is for 4.3.

Ok, got gapps-jb-20130812 which is the correct one. went into recovery mode and selected "apply update from external storage" selected the file then I get:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Then it all stops and i have to re-boot. I think if i can get this package onto the device then all will be good,
thanks in advance for your help

Hi, i would recommend you to do the following:
1) Download cyanogen mod 10.1.3 stable(4.2.2 android version) and gapps package 20130812 which is compatible with that version of cm
2) Copy them to your sd card (internal or external)
3) Download a md5 checker ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1135620 ) and verify that the files in your tablet have the right md5
4) boot into cwm, do a wipe data/factory reset (important), wipe dalvic cache and install cyanogen mod first and then the google packet
its important to make a factory reset as there are data in your tablet which will conflict with other versions of gapps

Solved
followed the steps carefully and it all worked fine, I cannot thank katsika and nasheich enough, you guys rock and roll.
Muchos Gracias

cm 13 - unfortunately setup wizard has stopped

Device - OnePlus One
Problem 1 ->
Ive tried to flash latest cm13 and gapps zip file
ROM - cm-13.0-20151127-NIGHTLY-bacon.zip
Gapps - open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20151127.zip
I did the following:
1. Copied ROM and gapps to device
2. Installed twrp v2.8.7.0
3. Rebooted to recovery
4. Wiped system,cache,dalvik cache
5. Install -> ROM and gapps
6. Wipe cache/dalvik
7. Reboot device.
When the phone starts, i get "Android is upgrading - optimizing apps.." , and once the optimizing part completes then immediately im getting error - "Unfortunately, Google App has stopped"
If i select "ok", it pops up again.
Im unable to use my device since the error message doesnt go away.
Problem 2 -
I got tired of trying to get cm 13 and decided to revert to cm 12.1
I followed all the above mentioned steps for flashing using cm 12.1 ROM
Now the ROM and gapps are flashed but when the phone starts, it goes through the process - "Android is upgrading - optimizing apps..", once that completes the screen goes blank.
On restarting the device, again i get "Android is upgrading - optimizing apps..", and once again the screen goes blank.
Problem 3 -
This ones not that bad actually.... I followed the above steps and just flashed cm13 ROM and didnt install gapps.
Now the device boots up.
Ive downloaded and installed Play store apk.
Then i installed the latest google play services apk
Now im getting the error "Unfortunately, Google play services has stopped"
How do i proceed now??
I have no idea what to do now.
Plz Plz help.
Thanks in advance

I am going through the exact same problem on the exact same device with the exact same versions of update file and gapps zip file.
After almost trying to search any possible solution to it on google and xda, I gave up and tried to solve it myself by looking into the phone itself. There wasnt much I was able to do because of the Crash Loop saying "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped". So to rest the situation for now, I somehow went into Setting > Apps > Show System > Setup Wizard with setting logo and not the Cynogen Logo one! And Force stopped it.
Also, I cant open my home on the phone either. I press the home button and the Setup Wizard starts to crash again!
Its painful to see your beloved phone struggle to work like that! I sometimes hate CynogenMod for their nightlies and wish I could go back to the stable versions of Oxygen or CM 12!

ok so how many gapps packages have you guys downloaded and tried? Ar you tryig each time with the same gapps and rom that is giving you issues

1. Did you make Nandroid Backup of your stabe phone ?
If yes. Flash that and you'll get working phone again.
2. Gapps package you guys are installing are meant for Lollipop or Marshmellow ?

Tried More than 5 Different Gapps

Initially, I thought its just an update. So there wont be any need to install Gapps back again. But then The Play store kept crashing. So I rebooted my phone after cleaning Google Play Services and Play Store.
That didn't help. Then Found somewhere written that the issue might be caused by corrupt Gapps or incompatible Gapps, So tried installing The Gapps downloaded from OpenGapps. There I downloaded all the versions of it from , Stock to nano and pico. None of them helped. The Phone is still crashing saying The Setup Wizard has stopped. Can't open Home Screen Either. Can't open Keyboard either.

Have you tried CM12.1 again ? May be resurrection remix rom ?
Try flashing the CM12.1 rom again .. If you are able to access recovery then use can also use USB-OTG ..
Download ROM, Firmware and Opengapps of Lollipop and try ..

Was getting the same error
Wiped the whole phone off including data reinstalled cm 13 (latest nightly i.e 28112015) and added the opengapps nano package to the flashing zip que in twrp solved the problem

I've installed cm12.1 and gapps 5.1 nano.
Now the device is working properly...earlier when i was trying to flash cm12.1 (as ive described in Problrm 2) , probably i was using a wrong version of gapps/ROM (im unsure which one)
Thanks for your suggestion Abhinav.
Im going to stick with cm12.1 for a while now till cm13 is tested a bit more. Im sure that if we get a solution for cm 13 issue, many users would be benefited.
Once again, thank you for your support, ur doing a fabulous job XDA.

Found a solution!
Looks like the Gapps from Opengapps werent compatible with the 6.0 Marshmallow yet.
I spent a day looking for different gapps and tried them all on my phone.
The only gapps file which worked with CM13.120151128 update for the oneplus one was this one -->
But before installing this, In TWRP you need to Go to Wipe>Advanced Wipe And select > System, Data, Dalvik and Cache to wipe everything from your phone. Then Fresh install CM13.120151128 and Slim Zero gapps you downloaded from the above link!
All Of this, only if you want to really run your phone with Android 6.0 Marshmallow!

After a lot of trying i finally managed to solve this setup wizard error by using the following steps. Without doing any clean wipe.
you have to be very patient and try to do the steps in between the clicks on the error OK button.
Go to Settings from notification drawer. APPS-- Click on 3 dots on the right top... select system apps.
Select setup wizard, one without CM logo.
And instead of blocking notifications from it, provide it complete access in permissions. I believe it needs access to contacts and telephone
This solved the trick for me.. I have no details to how this solves the error. You may give it a try.. Good luck.

From what i had seen, this case occurs when you didn't do a proper flash along with gapps. Make sure you flash the desired rom and with it the correct gapps package at a single stretch. Then Wipe Dalvik Cache and Reboot.
So just do a dirty flash and gapps.
I am not sure why you are not able to access your phone when TWRP is on. For me I had that option, copied the new zip files when in TWRP screen and started flashing from there.

You could try what is described here ... or test with the following:
Disable the Setup Wizard form your PC with
Code:
adb shell pm disable com.google.android.setupwizard
It should display: Package com.google.android.setupwizard new state: disabled
Then you can follow the first steps of @maxpayne1989 's description. Of course you won't see the setup wizard because it is disabled. After enabling it again with
Code:
adb shell pm enable com.google.android.setupwizard
(should display Package com.google.android.setupwizard new state: enabled)
you can select it and try setting the permissions.

Problems with gapps on CM13

Hi together,
after flashing the open gapps I got this:
"Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped"" application crashed message
I tried the full -> Error 70
only the nano could be flashed and after reboot I got the same error: "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped"" application crashed message
I also tried to wipe ... no changes ..
what can I do to get gapps running on CM13?

Hi,
with the installation cm-13.0-20151128-NIGHTLY-hammerhead.zip I have the same problem... When the phone turns on I got the same error "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped", You have two options REPORT ERROR and OK, if I press OK then immediately displays the same error msg. and you can not continue..
what is the solution?

thanks that solved the problem with the setup wizard ...
and now I can run playstore but can't download apps - I got the error: Error while fetching information from Server

solved! ... deleted google accound and remapped

Only the Setup wizard popup stops coming. Thanks for that.
There is a random popup about Google Play services which disappears on its own. I have given all permissions to the Google Play services app using the same steps as provided earlier. Still the same.
Please help.
Also in addition to this, there is a fix given by the OpenGAPPS team on GitHub as Notes for Android 6.0 (Sorry, cannot post link as this is my first post).
Can anyone help me patch this file onto my device (LG Nexus 5)?
Thanks in advance.

Maybe try different versions of gapps? I use the latest pico version and it works on the latest nightly.

I tried, micro, pico, stock.. All with same results. I was using nightly that came out on 12/02/2015.
Currently I reverted back to cm12.1 as I need to use the phone for day to day stuff. Please let me know if the latest nightly does actually fix this. And also which gapps, I will download the specified file and let you know by weekend.
Thanks for the help!

Try these gapps: http://opengapps.org

Yes I was using gapps from this site. I just need confirmation if the new cm13 nightly actually fixes the issue.
I guess it's not even with Cyanogen to fix the issue. The gapps when installed (flashed) , don't get the desired permissions to execute. It should be the a new gapps build released by opengapps. Still, I will keep searching.
PS: please look at the fix given by gapps team. I also don't know where to modify that code.

Here is how i got it to work.
1) Boot to recovery
2) Do a full wipe (Data,System,Cache,Dalvik)
3)Flash CM13
4)Do a wipe (Cache,Dalvik)
5)Flash GAPPS ( I used pico from Open Gapps)
6)Do a wipe (Cache,Dalvik)
7) Do a Factory Reset.
8) Reboot !
That should do it, Don't complain about useless wipes after trying for 2 days this finally worked !
I have my lovely G3 back
Good Luck !

I got it to work to flash it together with the ROM.
Cheers

I managed to make it work by installing CM13, in recovery mount /system and check how much space left on you system partition. After that you can choose the maximum size Gapps that fits the free space.
Wipe all excluding sdcard and USB-OTG. Install CM13 and Gapps together.
After reboot the wizard will not crash.
Other option is risky and can turn your phone into a break This is option is to resize /system to make it bigger.
I used the latest nightly CM13 for Xiaomi Mi4 and twrp-2.8.7.0-cancro

Solved

Thanks. This worked for me, although I had 2 Setup Wizard apps. The one with the CM logo had no permissions that needed assigning. The other one did. Once permissions were given, the issue went away. It was tricky to do it between the error dialogs appearing. What helped was switching to the guest account and back, then, occasionally, you had enough time to work the settings.

Had those Problems often, don't know why.
I just delete the settingwizard.apk in twrp (mount system, then system/priv-app if I remember).
Worked Several Times for me - you must do that always After flashing gapps!

My Fix....worked for me on HTC One M8
NOTE: Ensure you have a NANDROID backup BEFORE proceeding with the below, just in case something goes wrong
1. Ensure that you have all required files (CM13 Zip and Open GAPP Zip) saved to your phone (internal or SD card)
2. In my case, I used TWRP, so ensure you have the latest one
3. Boot into TWRP recovery
4. Using ‘WIPE’ option, select ‘Advance’ and choose: Data, Dalvik, Cache, System
5. Using ‘INSTALL’ option, Install CM13 via TWRP
6. DO NOT BOOT UP PHONE JUST YET
7. Perform a Cache and Dalvik wipe
8. Using ‘INSTALL’ option, Install GAPP Zip via TWRP (I used GAPP mini due to space)
9. Now you may reboot the phone.
The solved the ‘Setup not working’ issue for me and my phone is now working like a charm with CM13 and google apps! I have a HTC One M8 FYI

ThankYou So MUCH!

[Touchwiz][Launcher]Galaxy S8 Launcher For Note 5

UPDATE: If you have the T-Mobile SM-N920T with TWRP installed, then you can just install my new rom from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=72098300
It reroots your device while installing the newest version of the S8 launcher, SuperSU & a super debloated version of the brand new Nougat firmware.
-----------
Hey guys! Here is the new launcher from the Galaxy S8. It's by far the best TouchWiz UI yet, with many improvements and with a slightly different interface. Not to mention that it's just really clean in appearance.
To Install:
1) Backup your current TW launcher as this will overwrite it.
2) Download the "TWS8.apk" below & install it.
That's it. Easy!
Error Fixes:
"The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name."
(CONFIRMED)https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=71850074
"Parse Error: There was a problem parsing the package."
(NOT YET CONFIRMED)https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=71674744
NOTE: This TW is totally different, so you will start with a blank page. You need only swipe up or down to see your app tray or just touch and hold like usual to set widgets or apps on Home Screen. See images below for more features.
NOTE 2: Your app icons and background will look slightly different than mine as I'm running the "PixelizeD" theme from the theme store. I'm using a different font too.
Please be sure to hit the "Thanks" or Donate button if you like it!

Hmm...Strange. I see it says that it conflicts with your current TouchWiz version for some reason.
My suggestion would be to:
1) Backup your device in recovery.
2) Install a backup launcher(like Nova Launcher) from the Play Store.
3) Download "System App Remover (ROOT)" from the Play Store and completely uninstall your current TouchWiz.
4) Try installing the TWS8.apk. (Use the "APK Manager" in "System App Remover (ROOT) to install it if it still won't install on it's own.)
Note: This all assumes you're rooted of course.
If it still doesn't work after that then, then either your variant of the Note 5(if running stock) or perhaps even whatever rom you're running may have some unusual configuration that renders it incompatible.

Try to wipe data of your actual TW in apps before installing it.

It should update whatever TouchWiz you have, unless your service provider heavily tweaked it in some way. 874 downloads in the the last 24 hours and I imagine that a lot of them had Marshmallow. Maybe try my suggestion in the 3rd post above if you're having trouble.

In short, it either works or it doesn't. For those it doesn't work for though it would seem you are in the minority. To determine more than that I would probably need to start receiving A LOT more information from people who are having trouble, like:
- What is the specific error you are getting when trying to install the apk?
- What is your device model #?
- What version of TouchWiz does it say you currently have in "Application Info"?
- Are you on Nougat or Marshmallow?
- Are you rooted or not?
- Are you on stock firmware or a custom rom(and which one)?
- Is your rom TouchWiz based or is it AOSP, CM, Lineage, etc.?
- Have you tried installing the apk with a system app installer/uninstaller(like the one I mentioned in the 3rd post above)?

n920p, tw version 5.1.0.5 on pd2 mm, lamlazy tw base rom and yes i tried the post three suggestion using nova launcher as a substitute but cant find the apk in system app remover. Manage apk is blank

I had issues with the touchwiz crashing on initial reboot. It would not start. To fix i swipped down from the top. Settings->application manager-> touchwiz and cleared cache and data..... All now fixed for me. That's on the s7 edge btw!

APK Manager shouldn't be blank. Did you give the app root permissions? Maybe try moving the apk to the Downloads folder if it's not already. If it's blank it would just mean that the app is not finding your APK most likely.
What is the error you are getting when you are trying to install the APK normally btw? Is it the "package conflicts with an existing package of the same name" one. If so, then it may be the version of TouchWiz in your rom or something in your roms configuration that's preventing the update. Might need to try flashing a different rom if nothing works and you can't get it to install. I think it's worth it personally. The new TouchWiz is pretty awesome and integrates nicely with most Note 5, TW based, roms.

I had the apk in both download and root of my sdcard. The app has root permission i used it to uninstall the original tw home. Thanks I'll try it on another rom

Ok. Good luck! Might have to reboot before it shows in APK Manager after moving it to Download folder btw. I think I've had to do that before. Shows in mine though.

i get parsing error when i try to install it... i try download it again 3time but still get same error....

Yep. It's a parsing error on the Sprint Note 5, so it will not install the apk

Oh I see. Sprint people. Are you on a Nougat rom? It should probably work if you are. I believe "Parse Error" means that your version of TouchWiz(and likely your system configuration) is completely different than most others btw.

I take it you're on a Sprint device as well then?

This is a completely different error than they were having. Though if it's saying there's a conflicting package installed, then uninstalling and reinstalling, as I suggested in post 3 should maybe fix that, but you would need root.
The video you posted is difficult to tell what's going on, but the basic idea I got out of it was to try installing it right away on startup before the device knows what you're doing by changing your lock screen to swipe and placing a shortcut to the apk on the desktop for quick access after reboot, trying again and again after reboot until it works. Does this actually work for anyone?
@Vishnu pv You were having the same problem. Did you want to try this? [emoji14]
