So as soon as I took the phone out of the box I root it, installed setcpu, removed all the att apps and got rid of the original launcher. My issue is this: It seems as if I leave my phone in my pocket for any amount of time, I check it and its blank. It's not off, because it will not respong to any button presses and I have to pull the battery to get it to respond. I've tried changing the settings on the setcpu, even disabling profiles and using the ones that come on it and it still has issues. Any input, or am I overlooking something here?
Thanks!

What makes you think its the battery? It is probably setcpu that is causing the issue. Try disabling or uninstalling it and see if that fixes it.
its a setcpu issue. I had it installed and random times, when its locked and I wanted to unlock it, I could not and I also had to do a battery pull
Uninstalled it and its been fine since
I just upgraded to cm7 and now sometimes when I try to install an app from an apk file it wont let me hit the install button.
If I am using Amazon appstore it works, the same type of screen comes up and I can install stuff. But when installing from a downloaded apk (like from here) the button just doesn't work... it isn't greyed out or anything but is simply unresponsive.

Hey I have this same problem, did you ever figure out this issue? Thanks!
Please let me know if anyone knows how to fix this issue, I'm having the same problem
Bump this
Problem persists on my phone as well. Brand new Droid X2 stock ROM rooted with zergrush kit including busybox, superuser, and recently installed: nobloat free, droidwall, SD Booster, blade buddy, spare parts+, and setcpu (which is pretty much useless without a custom ROM that has the kernel to support it)
Edit: make sure unknown sources is checked under app settings =]
Edit again: NOPE still a problem =[
Edit again: FIGURED IT OUT!!!! Simply turn off your screen filter! =D (I don't know why, but that WAS my problem 100%)
Hi all, I'm facing the same problem, but I don't have screen filter installed. What else have you tried?
Here's my main post about this.
I've also heard that Juice Defender can cause this problem. Sadly, like you, I still can't fix it on my phone!
Anyone?
AHA! I found mine! TEAM Battery Bar. It's a spectacular app; if you've not gotten it yet, I highly recommend it. I just turned it off within the app itself, (I checked running apps to give me a clue,) and the installer button worked.
After hearing about several display-related apps causing the problem, I looked for those on my phone. TEAM Battery Bar does indeed run a constant display item, so I think that's the key. I'll notify the dev. He's pretty responsive.
I can confirm: disabling TEAM Battery Bar solve the problem! thanks

Thanks, that fixed my problem on my Galaxy S2 with LPQ ICS rom. Probably should report it to the dev for fixing...
in my case Juice Defender was a problem, since I don't have any screen filters installed
uninstalling Juice Defender fixed my phone
EDIT Friend of mine has the same phone (SGS2) with the same ROM installed, JD never caused any problems with his phone
The only difference between my JD settings and his - I got brightness control enabled, so maybe that was a problem, not JD itself

I'm currently on SGS2 rooted stock LPQ and just figured it out myself that Screen Filter is actually doing something so that the install button cant be pressed. Has anyone informed the dev?
Edit: just mailed the dev of Screen Filter hoping for confirmation and fix
'Lux Auto Brightness' is causing the same issue, so seems that all the applications trying to adjust screen brightness will cause the issue.
By the moment I disable it, I am able again to install apks... really weird
Also, not clear why only the install button is effectively disabled, as cancel bitton works and the 'show all perms' drop down , also works

Good call! That was the exact app that was causing me problems as well. Here's hoping to a quick fix!

i encountered the same issue and after reading your post and searching hard on my n7000, i finally found what causes it...on my n7000 it was glove box. After uninstalling my phone is back to normal again

Thanks for all the infos, guys. For me, it was both Lux Auto Brightness and Twilight. I disabled them using task manager and everything went smoothly from that. Explains why no matter how much I reboot, it doesn't fix things. I also have avast Mobile Antivirus installed and it has a constant display notification but it doesn't cause any issues. I am guessing it has something to do with code wired to the phone's hardware? As all the apps causing problems had to do with overlapping device setting control over screen brightness or hue.
I have a Galaxy Note running stock 4.1.2 Android. Over the last couple of days my battery usage has gone mad and only lasting 8-9 hours. I thought it was a duff battery and put my spare in but same result. When I looked at the battery usage I found that Package Access Helper was top of the list with 35% when it never shows usually. I Googled the problem but there was nothing very helpful.
I am also having trouble downloading any apps or deleting cache. I have rebooted several times, done a battery pull and have re-enabled all the apps I had disabled. It has made no difference and the PAH continues to hammer my battery. I would really like to avoid a factory reset if possible especially as this doesn't necessarily fix the problem apparently.
Please does anyone have any suggestions?

Have you already flashed the stock rom via Odin?
No, TBH, I wouldn't have a clue how to. I've never done anything to my phones in the way of rooting or flashing.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this please as it is still the same and I'm trying to avoid a factory reset?
Try this
Package Access Helper is the service which helps in installing and uninstalling of apps.
There are many posts of it draining battery.
Are there any software updates available in your phone, install it.
If no open play store and update all available apps.
If not fixed then clear caches using app manager 3 or any other.
Uninstall any recently installed apps when the problem started.
And pull out battery wait for 2 mins reinsert the battery and boot up phone it may be fixed..
Hit thanks if I helped..
kill cached process in developer options
open the developer's options via the last option in your settings (about phone) then scroll down to your build number spam tap the crap out of it then go back to your settings open the development tab open running services and in the top right should say something cached processes and kill process Package access helper.
The package access helper is draining my battery. Is there another app to use
My G Flex 2 is rooted and I have uninstalled or frozen all of the AT&T and quite a few of the LG apps that were present on the phone. I followed a 'safe to freeze' list I found online and the phone is running perfectly, battery life is stellar.
I did notice though that I can no longer automatically answer the phone by bringing it up to my ear. I checked the Gestures section and found some missing options (see screenshot). What could cause this? Did I disable something I shouldn't have?
I've tried to find an 'Answer Me' APK online so I can simply reinstall this feature but was unsuccessful. Might anyone either have the APK to share or guide me in unfreezing something that I froze in error?
Thanks folks
The answer me app has a red phone icon, it should be at the top of Titanium backup's list, so it's pretty hard to miss...If it's not there because you uninstalled it, you could just reflash the system image for your version...
I'm currently with the latest version. I rooted my Z5 about a month after buying it and some weeks later I installed Xposed on it. Since then I have experienced these problems:
- On the YouTube app I can't watch any videos after watching a certain quantity of them (I haven't done the experiments to know what that quantity is). The only solution is to restart the phone.
- Similar to the previous problem, the fingerprint scanner stops working after some uses. Or maybe it's after a certain time, since once I experimented using it continuously until it stopped working but I stopped at about 30 uses because it was still working. It says the hardware isn't working, or something like that. Again, the solution is to restart the phone.
- The last (maybe) problem is probably related to Xposed or root. When going to the settings and trying to see the apps section, it takes tooo long to load. I do have a big amount of apps, but I feel like it's just to much. The worst part is that when I directly go to an app's settings (without going through the phone's settings and all) it is very slow, like it was loading all apps again
So, do any of these problems have solutions? Or does it only happen to me?
Oh, and I need to address this:
Is there a way to hide the headphone notification? I hate it and hate the fact that Sony put it there just because yes and with no option to disable it.

You can do it with the xosed module GravityBox.
