ROM Manager asks for Account permissions ("Use the authentication credentials of an account")
I've read their explanation of it (using Web Connect), but is it really safe to use this app?
Not feeling comfortable granting this permission, and have found very little info on it and what it actually allows.
Just noticed Whatsapp asks for the same permissions. What exactly does this permission allow?
hello...ive been on the resurrection remix rom for galaxy s2 for quite a sometime...but now there has been a problem with the facebook app
i think its a virus
as soon as i open the app or some other app tries to access facebook app, it crashes and the message box show "Unfortunately, (app name) has stopped."
After this the launcher crashes with the same message. And the message seems to pop up immediately again when i press ok
So basically i have to restart my phone and not use the facebook app to keep it working
I cant uninstall the app from the app settings or clear the app data or cache
i cant disable the app
And the running app shows facebook with 1 process and 3 services
process: facebook com.facebook.katana
services:media upload service, event service and background detection service
I had a similar problem after which i flashed the rom again. The phone and app worked fine for a couple of days but the same problem came again now.
Please help urgently...Thanks in advance!

Hmm..to remove fb Just use an application which is not stock installer dependant, like I use One Click Uninstall feature of ES File Explorer which will uninstall the app, or you can use Titanium Backup to uninstall or you can do it manually by going to /system/app and deleting the FB apk via root explorer or by enabling rw permission via ES File Explorer's tools menu.

wiped dalvik
downloaded root explorer and deleted the apk file in data/app folder
The icon is still there and when i click on it, it gives the same message com.facebook.katana has stopped but the app doesn't open now
Should i reinstall now or have to do something more to remove the icon first?
My suggestion is:
Go to CWM Recovery (Home+Power+Vol Up)
There wipe cache, dalvik-cache, /system, data + factory set)
Then reboot system again and if you sign in with your google account in which you have downloaded FB... cancel the procedure when facebook.apk is automatically getting installed in your phone
Fix for Google Play/market “Unknown error code during application install:’-24”"
This error usually comes up when you are trying to reinstall an app and it fails to install.
*Requires Root*
Go into Data/data and find the folder/file referring to that app and delete it
Also go to Data/app-lib and do the same (if it is there).
Chances are it is probably only in one location but check both. Usually what this will look like is a bunch of folders in there and the one you are having problems with will look like a file instead – regardless delete the folder/file for that app and then go to google play and it will install.
Also this will work for most TB issues as well but you may have to download the app and restore data only, I have had some work back restoring the app and then restoring data but more luck with just a fresh app from the market.
Many people have reported that this also works for them, just wanted to add it to the help and troubleshooting section.
Working solution of error 24
Method 1 (Sure Fix but requires root):
Install a file manager like Root Manager
Browse to internal storage android/data/com.whatsapp
Delete the com.whatsapp… folder
Now install whatsapp from Google Play

Thanks I fixed mine, my "-24" error came up after I try to restore my GS3. In order to get the install to go through you have to delete the existing folder of the associated app first
Root Manager > Root/data/user/0 > find any app folder you are having trouble installing (the name is either by app name or maker's name > confirm & delete.
try to reinstall the app from Play Store and it should work. (In my case I think it's because i have a list of apps from my other acct and during the restore session somehow the Play Store was confused and couldn't verify the app install.)
thanks worked fine.
i face this issue whnever i clean dalvik cache thrugh Link2SD plus
Hi guys, I developed this app:
SickPerm can show you other apps permission. You can browse all your apps and see what permissions they have on your device. If you think one permission is not necessary you can check it and this information will save one a cloud to tell other users that this app uses unnecessary permissions.
Main Features:
1. Show all apps
2. Show each app permissions
3. Report app insufficient permissions
4. Scan service to alert you when installing reported apps
5. Uninstall apps
Please give me your suggestions
You can search SickPerm in Google play to find my app
[GUIDE] How to fix and upgrade Google Play Services
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This Guide is designed for people, who are having problems with the GoogleApps_GearCM_CM9_20140711 package.
Only for CyanogenMod 9.1 - BroadcomCM Beta 5, but might help other people too.
Error Messages
If you get one of the following errors, you have installed a Google Apps Package which was signed with old certificates.
Incompatible with other application(s) using the same shared user ID.
This app won't run without Google Play services, which are missing from your phone.
The Problem
You cannot fix this error by installing/updating Google Play Services, because there is a conflict with the "shared user id".
The Solution
The "shared user ids" are stored in this file "/data/system/packages.xml".
Therefore it is very important that you don't delete the google apps manually with a Root Explorer.
Because in this case, the "shared user ids" are not getting deleted in the "packages.xml".
You should uninstall the Google Apps with the App Manager of the ES File Explorer.
Download it from the Play Store
Start the app and open the left toolbar
Go to "Tools" -> "App Manager"
Select "System Apps" from the top menu
Select the following apps (one by one) and hit uninstall and then click OK
/system/app/GooglePlayStore.apk (com.android.vending) (Google Play Store)
/system/app/GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk (com.google.android.syncadapter.contacts) (Google Contacts Sync)
/system/app/GoogleLoginService.apk (com.google.android.gsf.login) (Google Account Manager)
/system/app/GoogleServicesFramework.apk (com.google.android.gsf) (Google Services Framework)
/system/app/NetworkLocation.apk (com.google.android.location) (Network Location)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will uninstall the apps correctly and the "packages.xml" gets also updated correctly.
Next Step
Afterwards reboot into recovery and wipe the cache.
Then install my updated Google Apps Package, which you can find here.
Final Step
After installing my updated Google Apps Package, reboot your device and go to the System Settings, and add your Google Account.
After clicking the "Add Account" button, there might be a bug, where the Google Icon is black and the text is not visible.
Just click the line which is completely dark, and configure your Google Account. Afterwards the Icon should re-appear.

Google Apps are updated automatically after you have installed a Google Apps Package.
Worked for me, thanks. Needed to enable Root Explorer in ES File Explorer (it's a toggle in the left-sidebar) and had to download ES Task Manager. Network Location system app didn't exist on mine (Android 4.4.4) but the fix still worked. Since I'm using CM11, I just re-installed their GApps zip package from Recovery.
Easy fix without reboot

What I did is went to settings apps, then I went to running apps, Google play services said it had 2 running service's, I opened it up and to find 7 were running and causing conflicts between the authentication and the service itself. I stopped all the services which is just like reciting because they restart. Phone works again no reboot, try this for a quick fix next time to save your day. Sincerely Jacob.
