I see a lot of 3G.4G optimizer/booster apps in the playstore.
Have you tried these apps?
Do they really work?
Nope but I've seen a foil mod...
I think all they do is reset your network connection. You could simply do that on your own without the app.

Hello, it's been a long time since I've had to ask a question here, so hopefully that won't inhibit my answers
So this problem happens a lot on my phone, and normally I just go and reinstall all my apps, but I'm getting sick of that solution. I install certain roms, and for whatever reason, the permissions for all my apps get broken, specifically the connection to data services. For example, Facebook, Myspace can't connect to the internet and force close, the same being for Twidroid and so forth. Native apps like the browser, IM, connect fine.
I've tried running fix_permissions in hopes of resolving this, but to no avail. If anything, it's made the problem worse (if some apps still work, it will break those working apps).
Are there any other solutions that I can use? I'm running Super D with Danger SPL, recent everything. Thanks guys
Anyone? I believe I've fixed this before but don't remember the solution.

Sorry. I've never heard of the apps installing but not connecting online.
APN settings maybe?

Only have default T-Mobile USA set, tried "restore defaults" to no avail.
So since there isn't any real solutions right now, is there any way I can go and mass install/uninstall apps?

1) Genie (news/meteo) widget is broken. I remove the widget but, when I try to reinstall it, "genie" process suddenly ends.
RESOLVED: clear data from Application Settings Menu and then re-apply the widget.

Same issue with Meridian Pro player, the widget would make it crash.
Deleting the widget, clearing application data, then re-adding the widget fix it.
Note that clearing the application data makes it forget your unlock code for the pro version. Make sure you have a copy of your code before clearing the data.
I miss the Froyo keyboard, i loved to just swipe my finger up and get another pair of lines with symbols, WHY WAS THIS REMOVED!!!

Annoying amazon mp3 app is still there!
Can't access to Google Voice app (no more icon). The application appears as installed in the market. Can't open / uninstall from the list of applications (appears in grey in all apps list).
Anyone have the Trillian 1.0.145? (final beta before it went to market)
Seems to be the only app not working for me, never completes log in.
Not really an issue, but I.was so much hoping for copy/paste to work in gtalk but I still can't copy in gtalk.

I always chuckle when people say they avoid CM7 and other ROMs because they want to "avoid bugs".
Irony at its finest?
Don't know if anyone will care, but if you spam tap "Android version 2.3.3" you will see this image:

Do you really need to keep evangelizing CM? This is XDA, we know about CM7. If we wanted to be running it we would be already.
When you go to the USB storage connection screen the button seems to say "Turn off USB storage" no matter whether it's already on or not.

Yeah, me too.
Just close the Market and then re-open and you're back at the new one. You may need to kill Market in app management, or just wait a couple of minutes to go back in.
I'm having the umts hsdpa switch issue. It switches back and forth every few seconds, and I have strong signal. Anyone seeing this?
Hi,
I notice that even if I kill applications "Maps" and "Sms" they keep showing in the list. I guess they are restarted by something. I have my GPS turned on but surely that should not start Maps? And I'm using Handsent for my messaging - not Sms.
Any advices?

Don't quote me on this but I always thought that 3rd party messaging apps need the stock app running to work correctly

Sounds reasonable, then I'm only left with why Maps is restarting
Thanks.

Lately I've noticed a lot of apps myself that never used to start by themselves doing so now. Even after shutting them down in settings they seem to start up again. The only way I've found around this so far is to clear cache and data. Clearing data is a bit of a pain because it means entering user names and passwords again everytime you wanna use the app. If there is a better solution I'd also be interested to know. As far as I know from my own experience none of the app killing apps out there really work and I've tried a good few.

Hope you are not right. I'd hate to reset Maps. On the other hand I dont want it to use 25% of the battery doing nothing as it does now!

No that I'm seeing "Maps" in the application list without starting it is a new experience. And surely a navigation application is not a system app...

Got it!
My GPS was lit (as it should be), and if the "Maps" application is set to automatically register my locations it will fire Maps when the GPS is lit. Disable the GPS or disable the automatics in Maps and it all works
Thanks.

with system apps i ment the default apps that are preinstalled on your device / rom...
and it does preload these ^^
Just installed SlimRom and although the icon for 3G shows, i don't have any internet. Anyone know a fix? I've checked all the basic settings, roaming, data enabled, APN settings, correct network opperator...
Anyone else know what i could check?
Ok, I've shouldvé checked differently...It's the Playstore.. not the internet.
Playstore says i don't have a connection, chrome, whatsapp and other apps seem to work fine..
I've reinstalled Gapps... doesn't help...
thoughts?

Need a tasker profile which can disable my mobile data only for some specific apps.it means If I start those apps then my mobile data would automatically disabled and when I close them Data service should be enbled.If any one know this or can help on this then That wud be very helpfull
No clue how to do this, or what I'm going to suggest. But, have you thought about maybe going the other way where you block all internet access to the app?
edit: actually a quick google search gave me all the answers keyword: block internet access android app

The secure settings plugin has a toggle for mobile data, you'd just have to trigger it with an app. I do this with GPS.
Edit: I tried it with mobile data but it throws an error. In theory it should work but doesn't seem to be.
