Hey all,
I have had a lot of issues since the one UI 4.0 update.
Many apps crash, and some I can't transfer data.
Specifically Another Eden game, when I try to data transfer usinh Facebook it just locks up. Has anyone else ran into that?
Code:
su
rm -r /data/dalvic-cache
rm -r /cache/dalvic-cache
reboot

I have already wiped the cache partition and repaired apps. But thanks.

If I delete the /data/dalvik-cache folder from the phone will it recreate itself. From what I'm reading this may assist in fixing my phone boot errors.
Don't think it will cause a problem. You can try rebooting after removing the files (dalvik).
I would recommend deleting it in Counsole just because it'd be safer for all your apps and processes, but it should be recreated in Android's framework.
needed to remove /data/dalvik-cache

thanks this was just what I needed... I was having the same error with the first boot as you had in some of your earlier comments in the thread. used adb to connect and remove the dalvik-cache file and then reboot... the next reboot nicely passed the 'G1' screen...and looks like my g1 may be back and running... if the endless force closes ever end

if you have apps2sd

Good luck

is it the same commands in adb?
I have looked all over for the answer to this and I am at my wits end...
I have been trying out different roms and themes to find that sweet spot for me, and I think I have now. I know that alt+w on the bootloader only wipes factory data and such, and that if I reformat my sd card it'll wipe everything including my ext2 partition. But I don't want all of that to happen. I want to wipe the apps I have on my sd card but keep the music, movies, etc I have on there without having to uninstall each one thru a file mgr (I have 83 apps right now).
The problem I am having that is making me do this is that when I flash cyan3681 and start over at the adp screen where you tap the android, right after that it starts showing force closes for a number of apps, and it always opens open overclocker and kinda hangs there. On top of all that, at some point, it messed with some apps in my drawer and either won't allow me to access them anymore or it shows the stock apk icon with the little gear and the page behind it.
I just want a fresh start, without having to spend an hour(s?) doing it. Thanks for any help.
run this in terminal
su
rm -rf /system/sd/*

You would be running in recovery console so you would need to use alritewhadeva's method posted a couple posts up:
Do this before the above:
Code:
# mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
Thank you, that worked perfectly.

You're welcome. Please change the thread title to [SOLVED]
So, I had facebook for android installed and recently update to cyanogens latest ad somehow it got deleted. Could have been a theme that removed it, as I didn't notice it until after I applied a theme. The icon was still on my home screen, but not in the app tray and the widget is gone.
Anyway I when into the market and it says its installed, its not and the option to uninstall or open is grayed out.
Any way to fix this?
In order to get it fixed for me I had to go into adb and
Code:
adb shell
rm -r /system/app/com.facebook.katana
rm -r /data/data/com.facebook.katana
exit
adp push Facebook.apk /system/sd/app
The app still didn't work but I was then able to uninstall it in the market and reinstall the market version and it has worked fine.

I get "can not remove /system/app/com.facebook.katana"
The reason you're getting that, is because it doesn't exist in that directory, try the second command, and see if it gives you the same error.
put the apk on sd and try this :
1. Open a Terminal Window:
2. Type the following:
- su
- mount /system -o remount,rw
- cd /sdcard
- cp "appname".apk /system/app

Code:
adb remount
adb shell
rm -r /data/dalvik-cache
rm -r /data/boot-cache
reboot

this didn't work for me anybody got a different answer.
Boot into recovery and try "Fix uid app mismatches" or you can download the App Installer by Flipz and run his Clear Cache thingy (www.geekfor.me and the go to downloads youll see app installer). Or if you have the 1.5.1 recovery you can clear the delvik cache in there somewhere.
Couple of options for you..
or just re-install the voicemail app..
app is attached

You should be able to Extract the ZIP to the root of the SD card, open Astro move into the SD card folder and just click on the APK. Then open it with Program Installer(i think thats the option, someting close).
If it errors, post back the message.
I moved the .apk i extracted to /sdcard/ and opened it with app manager and chose install. The error it gave me just said voicemail could not be installed on this phone.
I am also getting the error, "application not installed" when trying to install.

adb shell
su
busybox rm /data/data
busybox cp -rp /disk/data /data/
busybox rm /data/data.bak
busybox rm -r /disk/data
The first command puts you into the command line on the phone.
the second line gives you root access
the third line removes the soft symlink that we created in the original instructions
the fourth line copies the stuff from your ext partition back to the phone
the fifth line deletes the backup of your original data partition you made
the sixth line deltes the data partition on your ext partition - this is optional step and BE SURE your cp in line four was successful first.
We could alternately just mv the /data/data.bak back to /data (busybox mv /data/data.bak /data/data) after removing the symlink, but that would put your /data/data folder back to where it was before you started, so any app changes you made while residing on ext partition would be lost.
Use the same procedures to undo the market fix stuff.

hey... could you elaborate on that?

EDIT: I have found this here:
Code:
adb shell
su -
busybox rm /data/data
busybox rm /system/media
busybox cp -rp /disk/data /data/
busybox cp -rp /disk/media /system/
Am I safe to assume that if I've done a hard reset and flashed a new firmware it will have removed the fix? Or do I still need to undo it?

Don't forget to rm the .bak folder for /system/media.bak if you have it, otherwise you're wasting disk space.

Yes, any new firmware flash should wipe these fixes. However, your ext partition will still have the apps and other stuff on it. Not an issue since you can't use that space without running a lag-fix kernel that mounts it, or you repartition the sdcard.
last question: when I try to rm the data.bak, it tells me: "data.bak is a folder!"... what is that about?

When you did the fix in the first place it backed up the original folder by renaming it to .bak, so it is a folder, it's the original /data/data folder that you had before doing the fix!
You might have to use rm -r to remove it, or to be really safe, just use Root Explorer or the like and delete it.
Pretty easy to screw up your phone if you mistype with the rm or rm -r.
