Please help me with UID mismatch! - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello fellow android users, I recently started getting this fc on my favorite app, TaskOS. It was working perfect on my CM 4.2.15.1 until I decided to try SuperD 1.10.2. I was wondering if SuperD would work if I just flash it on top of CM but it didn't. Ofcourse I made a nandroid+ext backup, so I just restored CM afterward. However, the problem I was getting was that TaskOS wasn't working after the restore. It wouldn't even open and it would just bring me straight to fc.
I tried pushing the apk file to different places such as, system/sd/app and system/app, but I couldn't get it to work. I also tried fix_permissions in terminal and "fix uid mismatch" in the latest AmonRa and I tried reinstalling too.
Is it not mismatch problem? I don't know but I really want this app to work.
Thanks in advance.

That'll teach you not to flash roms on top of each other when it says to wipe when coming from a different rom set.
We need a logcat to verify if it is a permission problem.
Best bet is to just wipe and start over. Worse case senario you just restore back and you know it's a problem with the application or rom.

You'll know that I already restored with nandroid if you read what I wrote. So I'll try this logcat.

Read my post about wiping THEN installing the program again. AKA starting over.

Actually the reason why I tried to just install on top of CM is that I didn't want wiping. I don't want to lose my settings and saves. Anyway, I fixed it through logcat. thanks for helping!

[Q] Titanium backup not working after Froyo update

Updated my phone to the 2.2 JPM firmware successfully and then applied the root using the CF-Root v1.2 method. Everything working fine so far I applied the new Voodoo-5-pre6-Froyo fix and phone rebooted fine. Now I go to install Titanium backup and it requests root privileges which I confirm but it still says it cannot attain superuser privileges when attemping to run Titanium.
Anyone know what's up? I wouldn't mind getting my old apps back
Simply restart Titanium, happens to me all the time. Once restarted, it should work normally.
However, generally if you have come from a non-froyo ROM, it is recomended that you do not use Titanium to backup, due to the 2.1 system data causing a force closes.
I was looking for the button to thank you because I JUST had the exact same issue. Googled it and brought me here.
Thanks so much. I kept hesistating whether I wanted to try one of the froyo roms since it was taking FOREVER to get the official version and I was tired of waiting around.
@ coboltmarine
I want to flash my galaxy with Froyo (still have 2.1). Therefore I would like to backup my firmware first if something goes wrong so I can re-do everything. Since you said that backing up a non-froyo with titanium is not recommended, which one would you recommend? Do you know any posted thread which could help me in this?
Thanks a lot

[Q] Fix for Market Issues

Noticed this in quite a few custom ROMs that market doesn't work after flashing. I kept getting the 'download unsuccessful' errors all the time. So on a hunch, I replaced the vending.apk and MarketUpdater.apk files in /system/app with the same files from CM 6.1 beta, and market started working again (as in I can download files again). However, now I am getting market FCs every minute or so. Is there any other that probably needs to be replaced? What are the market's dependencies?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
i have the same problem with market: download unsuccesful but i didn't flash my phone or anything. i tryed but it didnt work. after a while i've noticed that the market send me this msg when i try download smth.
how we solve this?
bump...
someone please help...
Ok, I have a solution here (sort of) which I've tried on various custom ROMs now and it works. Last time I replaced vending.apk and marketupdated.apk and it gave me FC's all over the market. So, this time, instead of replacing individual APKs, i flashed the whole Google Apps package from CyanogenMod via recovery. It solved the market issues for me.

and how exactly u did that? there are a lot of files/dirs there, which one to download?
Hey aatifahmad,
I also would like to learn how to apply this update.zip. I tried it via recovery but it seems I had recovery 3e and it does not do unsigned update.zip. Do you have a workaround for this issue or did you revert back to recovery 2e?
If you have an easier way, please let us know. I really don't want to mess with the recovery.

[Q] Phone Force Closes, Just Flashed Cog 3.01

Hey guys,
I'm brand new to this stuff, and I've searched the forums to the best of my abilities and I don't see a fix yet.
I just flashed the new Cognition ROM and used Titanium Backup to "restore all apps with data". During this process, it went through my apps one by one, and asked me if I wanted to install them or cancel and not install them. I picked and chose which apps I wanted to keep and which to discard. As an aside, the apps in question were things like games/puzzles for my kid to play with, and games and such that I had downloaded from the Market to try out but forgot to uninstall.
So, after everything was restored, I started to test stuff out, and everything works...except incoming calls. I get the "The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. please try again. force close"
Is there any fix for this besides going back to stock and retrying the new ROM? If there is a solution to this a link to the thread would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for posting this, I am having the same problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Also, what is the best way to go back to stock?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I use ODIN to go back to completely stock and try the ROM again, but use the "restore missing apps with data" option?
You should click restore missing apps + data. That should fix it

Maybe I'm just picky or don't trust TiBu completely, but I always restore my apps individually. Never had a problem. I've been back and forth between Cognition and darkys ROMs and (of course) stock on my AT&T Cappy.
Yup restore back to stock... and if you had issues with doing a TiBu restore with "Apps and Data" I would recommend just using "Apps Only" option in TiBu.
BUT... I would test the ROM out before doing the restore to ensure it's not a ROM issue first.
If you do not wish to go back to stock, there were quite a few suggestions in the Cog 3.0x thread on this issue. A few people in that thread simply had a bad flash. One just needed to do a good solid reboot to fix it. Another suggestion was to clear the dalvik and cache using ClockWorkMod Recovery (red version). Lastly, lots of people FC'ing with the phone process were experiencing problems due to the ogg files in phone.apk being compressed when they should not be (reportedly) and was fixed by disabling the "Call Status Tone" in settings/call settings/all calls/call status tone. One of these could be your problem.
If you wish to just try again the simple way, it would probably be your best bet to Odin back to stock, do the master clear (it seems to be a topic of debate if this is the best thing to do, but it is mentioned in a few different tutorials), and flash again. Then TiBu to restore your apps+data (as mentioned... no system data, just app data) again.
If you wish to try to fix the problem, one place to start might be a fixed phone.apk in the Cog 3.0x thread in the Development section for Captivate. It is posted by Andrewk_77 somewhere between page 85 and 90, I think (sorry, I've been trying to keep up with the reading of that thread for days in order to head off any problems I may run into with Cog 3 and it's kinda blurring together). Otherwise you'll have to try to search out other solutions in that thread.
Edit:
Found that post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10685612&postcount=861
I know that they don't seem to be describing the exact same problem, but might be worth a shot.
I reflashed Cog 3.02, didn't use TiBu to restore anything, just set it up myself again. Phone works fine now.
Though I do have a question about flashing back to stock: would I just put the stock ROM (in this case Rogers 2.2) onto the SD, and flash it using CWM? Or do I need to use ODIN, in which case I would get the AT&T ROM? Thanks for helping a newbie out.

[Q] Little help please...Clockworkmod won't backup system

Hi...I am hoping for an answer here. I have searched everywhere. I don't know if it even matters or why I should really care to do this but I am new to this and it seems I should. I am rooted and running 1.1 update with the stock eclair and have tried to run a Nandroid backup with clockwork, but it stops at "can't mount /system". Can anybody tell me why? or How to make the backup? One answer I saw referred to Gingerbread and EXT4 incompatibility with version 3.0.0.5, but I am in eclair and am running CWM 3.0.1.0.
Also do you really think I need to back up? I have a TiBU for my apps and sys data. I figure if anything goes really wrong I know I can always just redo from stock, just some more wasted time. I guess I am basically asking if there is any real advantage to do a CWM backup anyway at the stage I am at, beside just playing around?
Thanks in advance for any help
From what I understand you get that error until you flash the kernel that came with that recovery. I had the same error until I flashed this zip made by mistar muffin http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971197&page=21 its the recovery and kernel in 1.
I always nandroid backup, just in case.
I'm stuck in a bootloop and cant figure out a way to boot directly into CWR 3.0.1.0. I tried a few different combinations thinking it would be like the N button and the power but have had no luck. HELP!!!
Still need help? Please
Thanks fro your attempt to help. I flashed 3.0.1.0 from Muffin, but still get backup error, can't mount/system. I have searched for hours for an answer, but there is nothing around about this. Am i the only one with this problem, except previous reply. It doesn't make any sense. I even restored to stock, updated to 1.1 and rerooted, so I would have the simplest system. Still same result. Can anybody help? Thanks
nevermind
Don't know why, but I asked ROM manager to backup and it worked. SO if anyone else ever has this issue maybe this will help.

Apps FC after applying Speedmod Lagfix on Froyo Stock

After getting Clockwork Mod working and making a Nandroid backup, I decided to apply hardcore's Speedmod Lagfix. When it was done I ended up with most of my apps force closing, including Launcher Pro, which made it very difficult to do anything. I was able to switch to TW Launcher so I could do things. I tried to restore some apps and data with TI, but get a message saying my phone won't allow it for security reasons. I was able to previously as I installed Amazon Market app on my rooted Cappy with stock Froyo. I found out after lots of work that if I uninstalled and re-installed apps they worked fine. Hoping to avoid having to do that. I also tried the fix permissions options in recovery to no avail.
Did I do something wrong or have I left a step out in applying the lagfix? My thoughts are I may have to do a nandroid restore, but am hoping not to. My plans are to flash Fasty ROM eventually. Is it better to get this cleaned up first or restore back to stock, without lagfix possibly, and then flash?
Thanks for any assistance.
if you're going to flash a different rom why worry about problems your having on your current os? its kinda like asking this:"windows xp is giving problems should i resolve those before installing windows 7?"
the enabling of the lagfix makes a nandroid backup, wipes everything to format to ext4 and then restores everything. sounds like perhaps that data was corrupted. make a fresh tibu backup, disable lagfix, do a wipey wipe of data, cache, and dalvik from cwm and flash a new rom, and then only restore MISSING APPS + DATA. DO NOT RESTORE ANY SYSTEM DATA.
Thanks for the advice. I'll try it later when I get home. I guess I'm being a bit careful and want to be comfortable in taking the next step. Since this is my only phone for right now, I can't afford to be without it very long. I've been looking for a cheap, broken screen, yet working Cappy on eBay to let me toy around with.
