when it reboots, hold down POWER+VOL DOWN
will it let you get into Bootloader?....
if it doesnt work that way, pull the battery, then when you put it back in try the step above.
once you are in Bootloader, you can go into Recovery and start over.

thanks I got it fixed thank you, but Is there a way to remove apps from market downloaded app list? Cause uninstalling doesnt do the trick :/ as long as they don't download again if i factory reset or anything I'm fine.

you can try using the program 'Titanium Backup' to see if it will allow you to 'force remove' any apps loaded by the system... if worse comes to worse though, and you don't mind spending 99 cents.. you can use a program called 'bloat freezer'. i use it to "freeze" any system apps that i don't want running. it works very well

If I understand what's happening, goto settings--privacy and unchecked the "backup my settings" checkbox". That will remove your apps from Google's servers.

If I had a penny everytime someone messed up with google apps....
If you have a backup, restore said backup, if you don't you'll have to reflash your ROM, and I'm only gonna say this once:
NEVER, EVER, EVER, FREEZE/UNINSTALL GOOGLE APPS (don't even look at them)
Google apps are necessary if you want your phone in a working condition, so don't try to freeze them or remove them because your phone will plainly stop working.

[Q] Market always pauses downloads

Whenever I try to download just about any app from the market...the download never starts and after some time it just pauses itself. I've been having this issue since yesterday when I tried partitioning my sdcard for apps2sd but failed so reformatted it all back to fat32...tried using different roms and even restored factory image using rsdlite but the problem wont go away...any suggestions?
Connecting with Wifi or 3G or both? What rom are you using?

i got the same problem with you, i am using Eclair-strike-back rom.
Still, I dun have a solution for this problem... just trying to use some Chinese market apps
Delete market cache and restart phone, then try again.
Give these fixes a whirl.
First, if you have Titanium Backup, go into it and hit the settings and then try Market Fix, might be called Market Doctor. See if that works.
If not then try this. Go into phone settings, manage apps, Market, clear cache, clear updates. Then go into Market Updater and clear updates. Close out and open Talk and sign in (Gmail/market UID password), Talk settings, unchecked Automatically Sign In.
Open market and try to download app. Should work. Talk is related to market so if that gets screwed with, it trickles down to other apps.
Rooted my phone just for this app. Great thinking!

Mine does this with the new Market from time to time. The app downloads, but it still says it is downloading. I just exit out of the Market, and when I restart the Market all is good. This is not a ROM issue. Many people have experienced problems since the new Market version came out. You could try submitting a bug report to Google. They are very responsive.
I get this when I queue up too many apps to download at the same time. It also chews through my data while looping through the downloads. Went through 500mb of data before I realised today. Restarting doesn't help as the downloads start when the phone starts back up.
To clear I go Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->All->Download manager
Clear data and Clear cache.
then I re-download the apps slower next time and it doesn't hang on me (-:

[Q] Can you reinstall apps from google play?

Recently my Samsung Galaxy Mini went into a boot loop. To solve this, I had to factory reset the phone, deleting all my apps. When I log onto google play, and navigate to my previous apps, it says they are still installed, and won't let me reinstall them. Is there any way round this?
Thanks
how about the backup?did you always backup app?
if not,i think you can redownload using another website like appbrain...after that you can automatic update from google play..this is just my thought
Also you can enter to Play Store from your PC, and install all the apps that you need (clicking on the Install button, the app will be installed in your phone).
my android apps
go to Google play and my android apps on right hand side or hit this link https://play.google.com/apps
it will show you all the apps that u have installed on your phone, now click on app one by one and click on install button through web, in this way you can install the apps that u have loose
please press thank you button if u like this.
The thing is, when I go to "my apps", it says I already have them installed, when I don't. The install button is greyed out.

I had the same problem. The solution is simple however. I'm using Cyanogenmod for my rom. It turns out you have to download and install the google play apk.
As soon as I rebooted, I was asked for my Google account and once I entered the information, everything, including my apps, automatically downloaded and installed. Of course, it's important to note that I backed up my account to my Google account. I highly recommend this.
So, I think if you just find the gapp.apk for your rom, you'll be ok.
Hope that helps,

problem with launcher 3

Sometimes I get the pop up that the launcher3 does not work properly and the terminal asks me if I want to close the launcher, I close and everything works fine again, but the other day it came out and the problem was not corrected. Now it's slow, I've tried to erase the data and the launcher cache but it's going slow, some applications do not even open. How can I have the launcher again as before?

It's not root with android 5.1. Even now seems its saying its not space in internal storage but i think its not true. I cant open play store neither. Maybe easy option is restore factory?
Indeed, this is a simple solution... You can try it... If the internal storage is runing out of space and you have not installed anything, there's a high probability that a trojan is involved.
install the virustotal onlinescanner immediately after the factory reset and have the system partition scanned on which the the lauchner is.
Remember: After a Factory-Reset all data and apps are gone...

Yes: 1.) Hope you have a backup before this happend, otherwise perform a backup now 2.) factory reset 3.)Install virustotal (https://www.virustotal.com/de/documentation/mobile-applications/) (i will try to attach the app as zip, unpack on sd and install it, go online an scann).

Does the apps where only recongnized by one scanner (the first), the probability is high that FotaProvider and UpgradeSys are false/positive.
Critical can be the Cache Cleaner Super... Launcher3 was not recognized by any scanner?
If you don't need the CacheCleaner, delete it.. and install the rest of you apps...
Also install kaspersky and run a full scan, it works for 30 Days with all options ...

Only with root you can go further and delete this apps... if these apps are really dangerous and belong to the system, then you have a contaminated rom. In this case, you should consider importing a suitable custom rom and then re-installing the smartphone... Or root the phone, kill the processes (if the apps are already runs) and delete the apps with for example root explorer...

im gonna try kaspersky and if not works im gonna restore
Kaspersky couldnt find nothing. There isnt a way without root to close and restart for a moment launcher3, i think the launcher restarted kinda bad and its just that. When appears the pop up if i want to close or wait its the same, i cant force this message again?
You can dowload an other (free) launcher, put it on the sd card and install it (without having the phone online). You can use a pc to download the nova-launcher (https://nova-launcher.en.uptodown.com/android/download) (english version). Then start the nova launcher and switch to "always use nova launcher"...
And when nova launcher is working i can force restart of launcher3 then?
you can try this but this is not recommend... if the launcher3 is infected with malware, the worst scenario will happen again...
