Every "uninstall app" on the Market starts Avast when i try to uninstall an app!
Hi everyone, I have a problem, recently i rooted and s-off my Evo 3D GSM, leaving it on stock original ICS rom (4.0.3; Sense 3.6) because i don't like custom made roms.
The thing is, when i use any of the uninstall apps out there on the Market (Uninstaller, Easy Uninstaller), and i mark an app to uninstall and hit Uninstall button, Avast pops out and asks for PIN... (I use Avast and its AntiTheft features, big fan). Then i get a message " Package installer has stopped unexpectedly. Whould you like to tell HTC?" Then the "system" asks for root permissions, which i granted (system; root(0); app UID 1000; command /system/bin/sh - info from Superuser app ), but still i have to hit once again the uninstaller, and then i am on the Confirm/Cancel screen... and everything is ok then.
What can that be? Why is a simple uninstaller calling Avast and asking for root permissions? What should I do to fix this?

Why would you use an app installer app? That's the answer.

My logic is this: You want to remove a system app. And it's logical it requires "system root permissions" to do that. That's why it asks for permissions.

If that's not the case go to system settings - apps and remove it from there

Or disable Avast.

If it didn't help it's most likely a bad uninstaller app.

Oh, and it would help if you tell us what app you are trying to remove.

And the answer to why it calls avast is that it's most likely configured to monitor your phones activity and block access to unauthorized people from installing or removing any of your apps. So i'd start with checking out avast settings.

I am using the uninstaller app because it is a lot faster to uninstall something, otherwise i have to go to Settings/Apps/ and open app properties and than uninstall
No, I am not trying to remove a system app, only if Agent Dash game has became a system app somehow
The problem was that my avast has been configured to prevent any app uninstall in its settings, and i was dumb not to read detailed description of its "Uninstall protection" option - i logically assumed that it protects uninstillation of Avast itself, not every app out there
This one was my bad guys MrJyrks, thank You a lot for this reply, your last advice helped me out greatly

I had this problem until i uninstall avast
Q: Why is a simple uninstaller calling Avast and asking for root permissions?
A: I think that for some security reason
Recently been flashing many jelly bean roms and experienced issues when updating or downloading apps. Downloads a bit then stops. I have to keep cancelling downloads and re downloading. I think Google need to fix this with another gapps update. Currently it takes me 8 hours to download 5 apps.
Hello,
Try to wipe data from Google Play Store with titanium backup. And then reboot.
If that doesn't work, try also wiping data (with titanium backup) from google frame work (unsure bout the english name) and reboot ofcourse.
Cheers

Hi guys,
After install xposed in Eragon 1.5 i can't open settings, always force close.
Any solution to this? Tried cleaning cache/dalvik and installing first after clean flash.
Thanks in advance

Its a bug with the modified Settings.apk and newer versions of Xposed. Flash Xposed v82.
Thanks!
In the meantime v84 appeaeed so i tried and it worked.
Many thankyou!!
Unfortunately, in version 1.9, applications such as e-bay and exposed still not work together. :crying:
I'm having this problems with xposed v85, settings always force close. Any ideas/fixes?
EDIT: Using Eragon 2.0 just flashed after factory reset.

I tried setting SELinux enforce mode and disabling Xposed to see if I could get settings back, but neither work. But at least I can confirm that uninstalling Xposed fixes the issue.
---------- Post added at 02:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 AM ----------
Using Xposed framework v82, settings won't force close anymore!
I'm using AICP 12.1 and have flashed GooglePixelExperience zip on it. The contacts app has stopped updating. Whenever I click update, it downloads properly but then says it can be installed and gives error code 505.
Hello .
do a factory reset first annoying I know :/. It has been found out that if you do a factory reset immediately after updating your Android version.
Note: if you not only just updated ignore that and give this a go.
clear the cache going to:
Code:
Menu > Settings > Apps > Google Play Store > Clear Cache.
Clear the data too, from the very same option.

You could of course reconfigure your Google account if it still doesn't work
Go to Settings.
Click on them Google options under Accounts Section.
Now, click on your Google account and select the Remove Account option.
Now, restart your android phone and login blah blah.
