New HTC One owner here. Unlocked it, got TWRP and superuser working no problem. I like to keep my devices neat and orderly so I typically like to integrate system app updates into the Rom to leave storage for additional apps. I tried this today with titanium backup and it appeared to succeed (said it did anyway) and apps that I had done so with forced closed as they usually do. Problem is I rebooted afterwards and was met with apps force closing and all of the apps I had just integrated had updates available in the play store. It appears all titanium did was drop the originally installed updates. Anyone have any experience with this on the One? I've done this millions of times with other devices and roms and never had an issue before.

I get a similar problem with One X+, rooted, with TWRP and SuperSU installed (but not Busybox):
I tried to integrate Facebook update and after TB says "succeded", the app disappeared!
I had to install the update again from the Google Play, than Facebook started working again,
without asking to log in (which probably means that the app was just hidden, not deleted ..)
any ideas?
thanks, STe
i have the same problem with my htc one .......after 3 days i can delete apps but i cant integrate apps

So anyways,
I was using dsixda's kitchen to cook VillainROM 5.4 (add & remove a few things here and there).
Wiped data and dalvik prior to flashing and then flashed the ROM which went fine. Upon first boot, phone stuck and white-green htc logo so I took out the battery and rebooted and then it booted fine. Added my gmail account in the setup wizard, connected & synced.
Now this is where weird begins. Somehow, official Facebook app apeared in my app list, and Market was only showing free apps, and it should show all apps. So I went to check /data/app folder and sitting there is com.android.vending.apk. New Market apk that somehow magicaly appeared out of thin air. Also, my Market download list shows all my previously installed apps and among those, Facebook as already installed and with an update available. WTF!?
Can anyone explain to me what just happened? This didn't happen with untouched VillainROM 5.4.
Market is linked with Google account, so could be that?

Sure, but I've never seen Market app auto update itself. What's up with that? It essentially blocks me from having all apps in market.
Okay, I found out what was the problem.
It seems that there's an update to Market app to version 1.713 which silently installs without user approval.
To anyone having trouble with this new version blocking access to paid apps, go to Manage Applications -> Market and select "Uninstall update". After that, remove MarketUpdater.apk from /system/app folder (pull it before doing it, in case something weird happens)
My current custom ROM includes Youtube v4.0.5. Market shows "installed" and latest avaliabvle is v4.1.23. An update isn't offered. Next I convert it into user app in TiBu. I go to the Youtube entry in market again, re-install and presto I have the shiny new Youtube. I assume the reason an update wasnt offered initially was because the app was a system app. So this makes me wonder if there's any automated solution that scans through systems apps and checks if an updated version is avaliable? I'm aware of the risks involved and I keep backups.

just remove YouTube app via titanium backup and install YouTube app from playstore .........then u can update directly by playstore .....
HIT THANKS BUTTON IF I HAVE HELPED
Ok, it seems I missatributed the lack of updates. The reason is that the youtube apk included in my ROM is a custom themed one.
Hi!
I use a Note 2, and was able to install apks perfectly fine until this afternoon, now i'm unable to click "install" , it isn't greyed out or anything.
I know screen filter and similar apps have a bug which doesn't allow you to click install, so I disabled and uninstalled them just to be sure.
I'm on stock 4.1.2, no software updates of any sort in the last month,weird it suddenly stopped allowing me to install apks
Able to install apps from the play store otherwise.
Any help would be appreciated
Edit- Also rebooted several times, and tried installing apks i've installed before, no dice
And I do have unknown sources checked.
Try uninstalling the last app you installed.

Well it's fixed, GloveBox was the problem.
Guess any app which has an overlay will be an issue.
OF, thanks anyway!
I have unlocked the bootloader of my new AT&T HTC One 64 GB, installed CWM and rooted.
When I started my phone, google play stated that there were updates to a lot of apps (like Chrome, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon kindle etc) which are all system apps. So I went ahead, updated them. Then as usual, I went to titanium backup and integrated the updates into rom/system. I cleaned Dalvik and cahce. When I restarted, google play said again that the same apps are out of date and wanted to re-update them. And sure enough when I checked versions on them, they were the old ones.
So decided to go the "make these system apps normal apps" e.g. move them out of the rom to data, update, move them back to system app directory. Same problem here, after a restart old versions in the rom showed up again.
Then I decided to un-install the apps. When I un-install them through titanium backup, after a restart they are back.
Like a bad nightmare.... Any ideas?

Same for me :
My ATT HTC One is unlocked and rooted already with CWM no-touch installed.
I installed ES File explorer as well as Titanium Backup Pro and gave both root privileges when they asked for them via Super SU
I can "Uninstall", via titanium backup, all the bloatware apps but when I reboot they come back.
Similarly, through ES File explorer I run the root explorer section and choose to uninstall system apps. I then successfully remove the bloatware, but it again comes back upon reboot.
Are there any other methods I can try or any successful bloatware removals for the One from anybody here? Is it a matter, as another thread about the Incredible suggested, a matter of the kernel not allowing writes to the /system while running? If so, how do I remove bloatware from Recovery?
Thanks!
any we need a kernel that allowed writing to the /system to stop this htc added some new code
It's because the kernel does not allow the /system partition to be modified. You need to flash a kernel that has the security disabled. I'm running the Renovate rom from the Intl One forums and that kernel has security disabled and works fine on the AT&T version
Hi guys, I recently rooted my phone, installed Xposed with only 2 modules, greenify and root cloak, I also have titanium backup and adaway for root apps, I've uninstalled everything that requires root.
Now ever since rooting my phone, I'm not able to book Uber or any cab using Google maps, I had no issues whatsoever on non rooted ROM, so just wondering if this is being caused by root somehow or it's Google maps issue. I'm still running stock oxygen os with mm.
Attaching a screenshot to help you understand what it looks like when trying to book a cab, the two tabs at the bottom won't go away. Deleting app data temporarily resolves this but it comes back in no time.
