Thx but how i said before... uninstall and clean data don't work
I used SD Maid too and clean broken files but city dont remove...
EDIT
I think that game add files in some folder inside system partition and don't delete when you uninstall...

if u are rooted, uninstall, clear cache, dalvik cache, delete this folder " com.ea.game.simpsons4_row" if present in data/data folder. search for game data saved in sd card manually and delete them. then reinstall
there may be a chance that your game progress is saved in a server.

I'm root so no problem, I'll try it
And progress isn't in server because I have this game in my N4 and my N10 and when I did wipes with new update, progress deleted without problem and I started again (titanium don't backup savegame :s)
EDIT
I haven't CWM... how I can do wipes?

And repeat, Isn't in server because with data wipe and new installation, game start again...

Deleting obsolete data

Hello to everyone.
I am a newbie with Android, and I understand now that to erase the application data I have first to delete the data from the button "delete data" and then I have to uninstall the application.
If I uninstall any app without erasing the data first, the data remains in SD Card.
How do I delete the application data now that I uninstalled long ago?

the "delete data" deletes the info stored in /data, not /sdcard. If you want to deleted info on your card, all you need is a file explorer, go find the folder your app uses, and delete the folder.
Same problem

Grab a cache cleaner like "cache cleaner ng" from the market and run it. Also after you uninstall an app you have to delete the corresponding folder that the may place on your sd.

See, now that's garbage. Reminds me of the old windows days where programmers were like, ''It's not our duty to fully clean up our folders when a user installs our program. It's our job to remove the program, not the files and folders added by the program.''
It's better now, but some programmers still do that. Grrrrrrr.....
Try sd maid in the market.

[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 .

[Q] Super wipe

Is there a super wipe script for the Atrix? I want to delete all directories before flashing a new rom, so there are no directories from uninstalled apps, logs, etc.
When flashing a new rom I do the typical - wipe Dalvik, erase boot, system, userdata, cache, webtop, and preinstall...
the two super-wipe scripts I have tried were not compatible and exited before executing, and I'm having difficulty finding one.
thanks in advance.

What you normally do is just fine. But if you want something automated, try this.
Edit:
Great, now you got Super Bass stuck in my head!
thanks for your response.
the script you linked to looks like it is an automated version of the wipe process I was already doing.
this is nice, but I was looking for something that deletes absolutely everything. the wipe process I was using does not delete some directories leftover from uninstalled apps.

Wiping with fastboot left directories behind? That is surprising. Where were the directories that weren't deleted and how did you determine that?

they were on the internal sdcard... some were directories that were leftover from uninstalled apps that I don't use anymore or don't restore after flashing new roms, some were temp directories that I created for music/movies/whatever. some of them were regular dirs, some were dirs with a period before the dir name (ExampleDir or .ExampleDir)
another example to overexplain, even the "Music" folder still has all my music after the full fastboot wipe process. I thought a super-wipe script would completely format/erase everything so when I flash the new rom and reinstall apps, there is nothing remaining except for the new rom OS files and apps. (so my music folder would be an empty dir after fastboot wipe and flashing a new rom, adobe wouldn't have files and folders everywhere until i restore it with TiBU, etc)

I have never seen fastboot commands for wiping sdcards. You can either delete the folders manually with a file explorer (recommended), factory reset (not CWM, but from within a GB ROM), or format the sdcards.
Neither fastboot nor any automatic "full wipe" scripts touch any kind of user storage. That includes both internal EMMC and external SD storage. Those are left entirely for the user to maintain.
answered my question, thanks! :good:

Insufficient Storage Available

hi:
i use [ROM] UNOFFICIAL CM9 with working camera prev9
i know this h/b asked many times and i searched for an answer::
an app stopped working.. cleared cache from settings--no change..
reboot, cleared cache and delvik.. tried fix permissions also--no change..
uninstalled app / reinstalled app-- got error "Insufficient Storage Available"
looked for any ".com" references to the app--didnt see any
i have 219mb used and 1.3GB free internal storage ..
i also dont see setting to install to SD by default, just in case that would help..
i havent tried to install anything while on this latest prev9, i doubt thats the problem tho..
thanx for any help
You have to delete the .odex file related to that app usually in /system/app if not I'm pretty sure you can delete.odex files using Lucky Patcher

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..
thanx..

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] What actually android wipedata/reset means ?

I am really confused with this. What actually android wipedata/reset means ?. Is there any problem if i select wipe data factory reset...? if i select this option, is there any chance of losing my internal memory datas like messages, contacts, etc ?

The wipe data and factory reset option will wipe the /data partition which includes application data, any apps you've downloaded, pictures, music, messages, and contacts that are not stored on your sd-card. In addition to wiping the /data partition it also wipes the /cache partition which mostly contains your apps temporary files, and other system related temporary files. Your contacts can be backed up to your Google account, messages can be backed up with SMS Backup +, and for your other data I would recommend taking a look at My Backup it doesn't require root, if you are rooted Titanium Backup is a very handy tool for backing up your device.

Just to clarify do you mean it's gets stuck on the Cyanogenmod Bootanimation or the Setup Wizard welcome screen when you first setup the phone after wiping it or installing a new ROM? Do you have adb debugging enabled (Under Developer Options in System Settings)? Because if you do then you can use that to pull files from your device. Otherwise what you try doing is booting into recovery and trying ADB through recovery to see if you can access it that way, another suggestion would be in recovery mode to do a NANDROID backup of your current setup and then transfer the backup to your computer, extract the userdata.img from the NANDROID backup, and then use Linux to view the content of the userdata.img file (This would be a decent place to start). Otherwise I'm afraid you may be out of luck.
