I was deleting some files from my phone (not rooted so ADB) and now I can not get Google calendar it will just keep crashing. Is there any dependencies that I possibly deleted? To make a quick answer?
Or do I need to post the entire list of what I deleted to narrow it down?
You obviously deleted something it is a dependency of. Don't delete apks/services unless you know what they do and their dependencies. This goes double for all those small Samsung system apps...
Oh well. I have to reinstall everything in a month anyways after its unlocked.
a factory reset will bring all your deactivated apps back into service, at the cost of your own apps.
we can't know all the system apps by function nor what you've disabled. I disable most google stuff but my calendar still works. I haven't touched play services or google services framework. if you've disabled either of those start there. find the command to activate them and reboot after.

I have a few apps that I bought that I no long wanted. I'm tired of seeing them in "My Downloads". I will never use them again and would like to get rid of them. Is there anyway I can do this?
This only works on items that you have NOT purchased. You cannot stop the apps that have been purchased from automatically populating under "downloads". That is connected to your google account. Google doesn't want, nor anyone that purchases apps, to lose something that is paid for.
If they are NOT purchased apps you can:
if you have root and a file browser go to /data/data and delete the item com.android.vending.apk
You will have to reboot the phone and the market will act as if you just wiped the phone. It will, however, automatically populate most of the downloaded apps you have installed already.
The only sure fire way to get the market to not notice what you've installed is installing them through a file browser after performing a complete system wipe. The market will not see what you've installed via the browser.
Purchased apps will always populate under downloads... unless you change the google account connected to your phone.
That's what I was afraid of. Thanks!
Interesting thing about the donut market...
On first run, it will actually scan your system and add any installed apps to its database. This means that you must run market the first time BEFORE installing any apps outside of market.

Hi everybody,
I got a big problem: everytime I go on contacts I got the message "android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly" and the contacts app just close.
I also got some problems with com.google.process.gapps
Let me give you all the details:
I rooted my Motorola Milestone a few days ago and then put the 2.1 update from Moto.
I'm pretty sure I got problems after uninstalling some stuff with Titanium Backup.
I have also made some modifications to change the bootup animation with Android Mate but I don't think it has anything to do.
I uninstalled Motonav, Car Home, Corporate directory, corporate calendar and other stuff I thought it will be harmless but I cant remember of everything right now (looks like I was wrong).
So I had the first message with gmail so I decided to wipe the cache of gmail with Titanium backup, and then I noticed I couldnt access to my contacts.
I tried severals reboots, then I tried to re-update the rom. Still not working so I operate a master reboot/factory reset. And guess what? Everything is gone but I still go my error messages...
I tried another factory reset from the recovery menu but nothin...
Someone got a suggestion ? I'm pretty desperate and I would be really thankfull for any help...
Ok Guys I finally find a way!
I found some clean roms there:
http: //and-developers.com/motorola_milestone:sbf#milestone_a853_xt702 (not allowed to post links so I put a space after http:/ )
And flashed my Milestone with the 2.0 in French version with RSDLite 4.6, and now everything is working fine!
The only thing is that for some weird reasons this rom doesnt allow me to autoupdate to 2.1 . So I guess I got to re-flash with the 2.1 one (I'm takin the service version)...
Anyway thank you for reading I hope this thread will help some lost googlers who got the same kind of problem.
BTW if anyone know what was the cause(s) of my problem please tell me!!!
Peace out.
com.google.process.gapps is used for communicating with the Google services, such as gmail, the market and therefore your synced contacts.
android.process.acore (If I'm not mistaken) is used to assist in launching and controlling applications and controlling overhead.
What likely happened is when you were removing stuff, you either
A) Removed something you shouldn't have leaving gaps or
B) Didn't remove all of the traces of the app, thus when a program that uses it tried to launch it, it couldn't find it and errored. This is like the case with acore.
Changing a bootanimation really doesn't touch anything else.

Ok so what is the best way to remove stuff so I will not let any traces of it after? And is it possible to find a list of stuff you can remove somewhere (like vocal recognition or motonav)
Am new to Android two weeks ago. I had to have my new SGS replaced and thought that all the phone settings and apps were being synced with my google account (I've always had Background Data and Auto-sync checked on as well as my google accounts set to sync on for Gmail, Contacts and Calendar). Having powered on the new replacement and entered my google account settings I was expecting it to recognise that the new device was not in sync with google and offer to push everything back down to the phone.
All that has happened is my Contacts, Gmail and Calendar are in sync but the phone settings & previously installed apps through the market place are not.
If I go into the Android Market Place on the phone and look at one of the previous apps I had installed such as BBC iPlayer it shows my rating and comment so it knows its me but only offers the option to reinstall the app again from the market, i.e. finding each app manually and reinstalling. Is it not supposed to restore the apps you have previously installed? I reinstalled this app from the market but it hasn't restored the user data associated with the app.
Having dug a little further whilst writing this, I notice that if I log into the Android Market through a web browser on the PC I can see in the "Orders" screen the apps that I previously downloaded. However, on the next tab "Settings" shows My Devices with the old and new phone listed. There doesn't seem to be a way to remove the old phone from my account or tell it that the new phone actually replaces the old so just give me the old data to the new device.
Being new to Android I did think that this was meant to work slicker than this, I hope someone can help out a newbie please?
If you go into the Market and look at My Apps, you should be able to redownload them all (I think an option exists to download them all with a single click "update all" or something like that). Most people backup their applications etc using Tatanium Backup so that they easily restore user apps after ROM upgrades etc. You can also backup SMS messages using an app from the Market.
When you first enter a new Google account into your phone, there is a check box to restore your apps from the Market. This actually is usually best NOT to use since it can cause a sudden massive download.
It is in all ways safer and smarter to just go into MyApps and reinstall the apps one by one. It may take a little longer, but it is a better method.
Titanium Backup is a good option for restoring apps after you flash a new rom, but it won't do you any good if you change phones.
Unfortunately that isn't the case.
If I go into the Android Market Place on the phone and "My Apps" I don't see the apps that were installed on the old phone and thus no option from My Apps to reinstall them.
The only apps that are present in My Apps are those that were I guess added by Three's flavour of this 2.2 OS, which are the Three app plus Google Maps and YouTube.
Their seems to be something wrong with market place if it is meant to work how your suggesting. If I log into market place through my PC that google account sees both the old and new phone but doesn't on the phone offer the old apps to the new phone.
I'm pretty sure that when I entered my google account details earlier that there was no option box to restore as I would have taken that option as I have an unlimited data plan.
I wonder if I should do a factory reset and re enter the account details again but I fear that it will just see this new phone in the market place and not the old one as they obviously have some sort of device id.
Unfortunately it looks like Titanium is just for rooted devices and am not ready to go down that route (no pun intended) just yet.
If the apps and app data are suppose to sync with google then it seems like an unnecessary duplication of work to redo something outside of what should be part of Android natively.
If I have to install a backup app then I would want to find one that backs up all the phone settings, apps and app data to the SD card which I can then move over to the PC where there is obviously more storage. It would be nice to find such an app that provides a selective restore so that it would also be compatible with a new different model phone so that only the apps and app data could be restored.
Hi everyone,
I am currently using CyanogenMod 13 stable on my Nexus 6. I was having some annoying issues with Calendar not syncing up right (it would sync temporarily but then it would dump off any time I restarted). As such, I deleted the system apps and the one I installed from the Play store. I basically terminated anything named Calendar. I highly doubt this is the fault of CM13--I was fiddling around with the files before so this is very likely my fault (like 99.999%).
That said, does anyone have the current system .apk files that a calendar relies on? I really don't want to do a clean install at this point so inserting the files would be optimal. I am actually not 100% sure which ones are supposed to come stock, but whatever they are, they will probably do the trick.
just dirty flash your rom it'll put all the system apps back in their place.
I have a recurring problem that apps stop updating. Deleting the Play Store memory and cache sorts it, but only for one or two apps then it stops again. Apps either just sit saying pending or download to XX% and then stop.
report it to Google
Clear system cache.
Clear data in related apps.
Delete, recreate Google Account.

I had this issue after the first beta. I had to go to apk mirror and install the latest update for the app that wouldn't update. Once I did that the next updates that showed in play store, updated correctly.
Edit* I believe this happened because I restored my Samsung backup including apps but I could be wrong. Either way that fixed it.
Unless you're having issues with the app I wouldn't worry about it. Updates can and do break apps. I use the factory load version still after 2 years on some of mine.
Some saved app versions go back 6 years and work fine!
Google's update crap is just that many times. Trying to scare you into constantly updating.
If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it bro...
You can also use ApkExport on another Android to make an installable copy then download it to the other device.
