General :: Deleted App Remains On List / Can't Uninstall Further
Jul 12, 2013
I have been messing with System Cleanup moving apps into system partition, etc. There was a glitch and now there's a 0-byte app that is physically removed (no files left as far as I can see) but still present on the app list. I can neither uninstall it further nor reinstall it (says can't install into the specified directory or something to the effect).
Is there a way to ULTIMATELY remove all traces of a (system) app manually? Is there a database of some sorts in Android where an entry could still be present? I would like to make Android forget it ever had the app in question (much less it was at some point moved to System) and be able to reinstall it as a user app.
Running an old Gingerbread Samsung Gio phone, BTW.

My brother accidentally deleted google services from application list. My phone - Karbonn a6 keeps restarting from then . Its been a long while till this issue occurred.
I got my phone checked from service center and other mobile shops, they told the phone is dead. It just shows the welcome logo of karbonn and after that a small symbol occurs and then restarts again.

I went to purchase the acircuit live wallpaper app. The transaction failed to go through because my bank blocked it, as it was less than 1. It is now sitting in my list of downloaded apps in the Market app (not the installed list) and it says purchased. There is an install option, which if pressed tries to download it again, but fails because it has been blocked. I don't want the app now and just wish to clear this from my download list. I have installed an unistaller app, but this just shows a list of the installed apps. Can anyone help me with a solution to get rid of this from my app downloads list in the Market app.

I started using Go Launcher and Go Locker sometime back on my HTC Desire S (Android 2.3.5, Sense 3).
Previously when a new SMS arrived, the screen would light up and show the message on the locked screen, from where I could send a "Quick reply" without unlocking the phone or going into the SMS app (using Handcent).
After applying Go Launcher and Locker, the screen does not light up when an SMS comes, though the notification sound and the LED blink is still there. So i need to unlock the phone and then reply, if needed.Also previously when listening to audio, when I pushed the Volume up or down button, the screen remained off, but with these apps now the screen lights up when using the Volume buttons.

I really hate the stock messaging app on the bottom of my Galaxy s2. I like using gosms cause i can lock it and keep it private. But the messages are showing up still in the messaging app, ( i thought i enabled only gosms) and of course, when i delete them, they get deleted in gosms too

With 2.1, my screen remains lit when I'm plugged into a USB port for charging. No big deal, but certainly means it isn't charging as quickly.Is there a setting to have it go off when plugged in?(I am also using Power Manager, but it doesn't seem to have this setting.)

Removed the Footprints and Peep widgets following some directions from the board here... Now when I go into the widget menu, I have 2 entries. One is "0.0dip" and the other "false". Footprints was "0.0dip", as I removed that last night, and now "false" from removing Peep.

I'm populating a list from the DB and I have a image field in the DB which contains a URL to a image file.
ListAdapter adapter=new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,
R.layout.row, constantsCursor,
new String[] {"title", "subtitle", "image"},
new int[] {R.id.value, R.id.title, R.id.icon});
However, the other fields are populated, but the image remains empty.

So when I get a new email from my gmail account, the icon appears on my drop down menu. When I click the notification it brings me to the email, but the notification remains at the top of the bar until I click it again, which brings me to my inbox. This is not really a big issue, it just kind of gets annoying clicking every email twice. Any solutions?

(1) I have an issue with the following code:
getWindow().setFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN, WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
On my emulator this seems to work fine. The status bar disappears and the empty space is filled with the content view. However on my Nexus One this sometimes works and sometimes the empty space remains empty/black. I tried to counteract this, but my naive approach wasn't fruitful:
handler.postDelayed(new Runnable() {.............

I am developing an application in which the layout is independent of screen resolution.
Now my problem is that in TextView the textview layout does change itself when the resolution of screen changes but the size of text remain same.I want that when the resolution is high, according to that the text size should also adjust itself(i.e. text size should be changed).And similarly when resolution is low the text size should also shrink.But here when i reduce Y-AXIS to an extent the text vanishes.I will really appreciate any answer.

I was wondering if the icon of the 3G remains the same even if it connected to the HSPDA as my friend has an HTC desire and sometimes the 3G icon turns in H. I have the Xperia X10 Mini Pro

Does anyone else have this problem? After I search the market for apps and then return to my home screen, or any other screen, some text will remain on the bottom of the screen. It's basically the various word suggestions from my previous search. Note, I am using Better Keyboard. Not sure if this is a BK bug or not.

Attempted to update to 2.1 , everything appeared to go ok , but after restarting i saw that firmware was still in 1.6 .
The only effect was that my intended apps etc. were gone.
According to SE PC Companion the phone is up to date.
According to the phone's software update a new version of Android is available ..
Using the SE PC Companion to repair ( ca'nt install since aIready have the latest sw according to SE-PCC )
results in installation error when reaching close to the end of the prepare phase.

I've Tried Breaking the Market Links, I've Uninstalled Every App on my Dumbass phone, I've Restored Nandroid Backups that "Were" working Fine!I've Tried to go to the Android Market from my Web Browser, Logged in but Can't figure out how to Uninstall apps that it says are Installed under my Email, but they Aren't...
It's Remembering apps from Two of my Previous phones and Also from my Current phone when I Switched my Build.prop information! Every once in a while it just Mysteriously Fixes itself and I can all of a sudden see My Apps again in the Market app... But I Don't know What's Causing it to Hide My Apps and I Don't know What's Fixing it?

Xperia Neo v2.3.4 Build 4.0.2.A.62
Why I can't uninstall these applications (see the screenshot) that come with the firmware?
After I uninstalled them, but when I reboot the phone. These applications appear in the menu again. How come? This problem happened after I updated to Build 4.0.2.A.62 via Sony Ericsson PC Companion.

I tried installing "Black Hole Live" wallpaper from the PlayStore, it failed to install BUT left some sort of remnants in the "Apps Listing" that will not allow being uninstalled. It shows as 00B on all "storage" and is "Disabled". Being from IT, I like things clean and tiddy. This remnant refuses to uninstall, I've even looked everywhere it could reside using ES File Explorer, nothing. HOW do I get rid of this stinker??
Second: I'm sure this has been covered before, but I have to ask again if not. There are Apps that are put on the device from the factory, buried somewhere in the OS, that aren't "free" apps after a ridiculously short "Trial Period". I want to remove them, they're using up storage space and I don't use them. One in particular with an absurd 7 day free trial is PRESS READER. I want it off! I downloaded an Uninstaller called "Root Uninstaller APK", but it shows nothing that any other Uninstaller does and Press Reader is not shown.

When installing a app (after confirm its permissions) - the persmissions like "contact", "calls", etc (all kind of permissions) - are disabled to the dev once I delete the app or he always have access to my info (at permissions) OR at the time I've download the app he have access to the permissions until I delete it and all the permissions are disable?
Usually this information/permissions are availabe to the dev automatically once I install the app or he need manualy to get into this informations? If I force stop the app, will it still have access to my data (permissions) or only if its running?
