Using omega rom , I have tried your suggested method before also. Still doesn't solve the issue.

Then backup play store and uninstall it, both can be done with "root uninstaller",wipe cache and dalvik in recovery and restore play store,no data must be restored that's why i recommend "root uninstaller".best way is to copy play store from system/app with a file explorer to sdcard uninstall it and do the above, when booted push back play store to system/app folder and reboot

delete com.android.vending-1.apk from data/app or vending.apk and wipe market cache/wipe dalvik cache.
delete com.android.vending-1.apk from data/app or vending.apk and wipe market cache/wipe dalvik cache.
Ok.. But i don't know how to find vending.apk ?
I have searched from Astro filemanager.. But it says "Nothing found" ?

Astro wont find it. You will have to use something like Root Explorer, or, ADB.
Ok.. I have deleted the file and rebooted in recovery and installed custom market. After install I did a clear cache in Apps...
But I still have the stock market.. ?
Along with clear cache in apps, Go to Recovery, and Clear Cache there, and, also Clear Dalvik Cache under Advanced.
I realy did all that..
Please someone write a full a-z on how to..?
Ok, one more method:
Visit this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831782
Flash Symp.Market.Remover.v2.zip , Reboot, make sure that after rebooting, you don't have market on your Wildfire, no shortcuts, anything.
Then again, in recovery, to be on the safer side, clear cache and dalvik cache.
Then Flash Symp.Green.market.v7.2.1.zip , and, CM6-Market.fix.zip in Recovery. Reboot, and clear Market Cache from Settings > Applications.
It should work, if it doesn't, Sorry about it, I am out of ideas. :/

[Q] Apps Remained after a full wipe

Something strange happened to my S3 after a simple reboot I noticed that some app have been removed so I decided to clean my phone on the way.
I made a full wipe + everything you can think of to clean, delete, format the phone but after I install the rom I can still see my apps in the application manager and I can't get rid of them even if I uninstall them through the application manager the come back after a restart.
I tried 2 different roms but it happens on both of them, both are xxDLIB .
How to fix that?
pls help me

Try the SuperWipe from "Android Revolution HD" here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797334
Be careful, this will erase everything that is not on your external SD-card. Read the instruction first.

Are the apps system apps perchance? A wipe of data WILL wipe all user installed apps, the full wipe script alluded to doesn't do anything that you can't do manually from recovery.

So you did a full whipe but did you do also a factory reset?

Sure the apps aren't part of the ROM. Depends on what the dev has cooked into it.
Sure you're doing a full wipe vs wiping caches only.
Could also be syncing to your Google account meaning when you launch play store it automatically detects your market links and reinstalls previously installed apps
Sent from my SG3
CWM Recovery mounts and storage FORMAT system cache data and preload .
That fails wipe internal sd card .
jje
explanation
I think I didn't explained my self right, these apps are "user" apps downloaded from Play store.
things I did before installing the rom:
1. factory reset from setting.
from cwm:
2. wipe data/factory reset
3. wipe cache partition
4. wipe dalvik-cache
5. wipe battery stats
5. format /cache
/system
/data
/preload
/sdcard
* also I removed the external sd.
but still I have these app "ghosts"
Then i suggest as per previous replies to the same question you are auto downloading from Google play after installing a rom .

I disabled wifi/data and sync when it ask for a wifi connection (at the openning screen of the new rom) so there is no way it somehow sync with play store.
you can see below what I mean by saying "ghosts"

Clean Rom Install
Many people don't exactly know what a Data Wipe / Factory reset is. NO it does not delete "all" your data on Internal SD-Card. It Deletes all you user data and settings and stuff, like it says it formats "system". For Example if you Full wipe you loose Whatsapp, but the Whatsapp folder on your internal SD-Card remains untouched, that means you can restore your Conversations with ease. This means you can cause a huge mess on your internal SD-Card over time. This is my way how to do a CLEAN install. Doing this prevents many unwanted issues like Bootloops, FC's and all those other nasty laggy ****.
1. Put new rom on EXTERNAL SD Card (if slot available)
2. Data Wipe / Factory Reset
3. Wipe Cache
4. Wipe Dalvik Cache
5. Format Internal SD card
6. Install Rom and enjoy
Keeping your personal Data on your external SD-Card is a good idea (pics, music, vids , docs ...)
[You can do this even if you don't have an ext. SD-Slot. After "cleaning" your device mount USB-Storage in CWM Recoery and you can connect to pc and pull over your rom. ]
And this is probably one of the best ways to do a clean install without aditional Scripts like superwipe or other "flashy" stuff. (DO NOT USE THOSE SCRIPTS UNLESS THEY ARE IN AN INSTALLATION GUIDE)
One addition to above format/preload as well .

i uninstalled app, then looked for a related .odex file but found none
tahnx
Are you using something like root explorer? It may be in /data/app but I'm pretty sure the file manager had to be root enabled. You remember how sometimes in Windows you uninstall a program but the shortcut and folder are still there? You have to manually go in and delete those files yourself? That's giving you that insufficient storage issue. If all else fails, full wipe out wipe of system will put you clean again.

k, i did what you sugg'd:: did find a related odex and deleted it..
reinstalled from google play .. gave me the"unfortunately...has stopped" error..the same as my original prob that started my insufficient space error..
i guess im beat..
i ll probly have to wipe out and reinstall ..
i thought for sure a restore from nandroid wouldve helped tho..

After you delete the .odex, just to be certain the app is restored to the pre-odex state, in Lucky Patcher > Long press troublesome app > Remove ODEX with Changes! (restore application).
Then, go into system/settings/applications/all applications/Google Play Store and hit 'clear data'. Reboot into Recovery > Wipe dalvik & cache (a tad redundant, I know), reboot into system.
If this fails, after clearing caches, try re-flashing Gapps.

I stumbled across an application that should rectify your issue:
Amaze Memory Clear
Give it a shot if you are still having that issue. Report back, too - I'm kinda curious, myself.
that extra step you took was really great of you.. i will try it..
EDIT::
i found an obscure workaround for my original prob.. install ol file manager.. dont have to change anything.. just have it installed..
it did fix the stopped working problem..
so i reverted to my nandroid prev9 backup , installed ol file manager on this backup and everything works as before..
i did installed your memory clear app and it found quite a bit of space after i cleared apps cache and recovery mode cache and delvik..
so altho i dont know if it wouldve fixed my original prob, i do know it frees up alot of space...
really , i would bet against it fixing that prob cuz i had alot of space .... i didnt have much installed..
thanx for the tip

[Q] SMS/MMS app crashing at launch

Hello,
I wanted to install that MMS mod fix and now my SMS/MMS app is ****ed up, everytime I open it, it won't start and crashes right after. I'm running stock 4.1.1 DLIH. Does anyone have the stock SMS/MMS files that could fix it ?
Here's a link to the zip I've installed : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33367197&postcount=45
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
1. Have you uninstalled the apk mod?
2. Have you tried a full wipe?
3. In case nothing works, try to flash the stock rom again via odin
Cheers
Hey, thanks for your time.
1) How can I uninstall the APK (I'm noob in Android, I come from Windows Phone..) ?
2) If I do a wipe, will I lose everything ? And to proceed, do I have to enter CWM then "do a wipe/cache" ?
3) I'll do that if nothing can fix it.
Thanks for your help.

If you do a data wipe, you will lose everything. Let's try just the wipe cache and wipe dalvik, don't do the data wipe to preserve your apps and configs. If I doesn't work, try the data/cache/dalvik wipe. You are right, just enter on CWM to perform cache and dalvik wipe.
3) I'll do that if nothing can fix it.

Yes, lets hope for the best, maybe it wont be necessary. Good luck! If you need help on step 3, just say it.
Just checked and the APK isn't in the list. There is no way to have a *.zip with the stock files I could install to fix my problem ?

hum... Unfortunately I don't know the answer for this. You can try a search on xda forum and google.
I would try a search, if no success, I would try step 2 (wipe cache and dalvik) and if nothing works, step 3.
Good luck!

This mod is probably made for deodexed rom
You run a rooted stock rom which is probably odex
So:
-use root explorer (or similar app) and move secmms.odex file from /system/app to your SDcard (internal or external) as backup
-restart in CWM
-wipe cache
-wipe dalvik cache
-restart your phone
-check if you still have your issue

Check if the app is still in the app drawer.
If it is still there, then just move it back to dock

Problem solved thanks to Mopral who managed to extract SecMMS.apk and SecMMS.odex from a stock DDLIH and send them to me.
