[Q] CM Torch App on 2.3.6 Stock ROM - Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
since I recently went back to Stock 2.3.6 ROM because of some issues with CM 7.2 I was wondering if there is any possibility to get the CM torch app installed. This seems to be ridiculous regarding the mass of torch apps on play store but I really like the simplicity of CMs Torch app! :laugh:
Thanks in advance!
PS:
I already tried pushing and installing Torch.apk & Torch.odex via ADB but I keep getting
Code:
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]
Logcat:
Code:
W/PackageManager( 1511): Check ABI compatibility
E/PackageManager( 1511): Package net.cactii.flash2 has mismatched uid: 10003 on
disk, 10044 in settings

I don't know how to put cm's torch in stock, but man, why don't you use an custom rom? The most of them has torch in SB. Much better in my opinion.

[Q] Porting ICS/AOSP APK to other device?

Can anyone point me in the right direction to getting AOSP APK's working on other devices (in my case, HTC EVO 3D GSM and HTC One X)?
For example, when I push a different Settings.apk to my device, I see the following logcat output:
I/PackageManager( 1256): /system/app/Settings.apk changed; collecting certs
D/dalvikvm( 1256): GC_CONCURRENT freed 1980K, 22% free 11742K/14947K, paused 9ms+20ms
W/PackageManager( 1256): Signature mismatch for shared user : SharedUserSetting{40de1400 android.uid.system/1000}
E/PackageManager( 1256): Package com.android.settings has no signatures that match those in shared user android.uid.system; ignoring!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What's the recommended approach to getting the app to match the same signature of the previous one? I tried opening both APK's and copying the META-INF folder to the new app but that doesn't help.
I'm looking to get this working in my custom ROMs which are obviously rooted, deodexed, etc.
Thanks in advance.

com.bn.cloud.svc permission issue: What does a healthy ''packages.xml" look like?

com.bn.cloud.svc permission issue: What does a healthy ''packages.xml" look like?
I'm running a rooted Nook 1.4.3, and somewhere in my customization, I've run into an odd permissions issue.
Main question: Can anyone with a Nook 1.4.3 whose B&N Shop is working paste their /data/system/packages.xml here so I can check mine against it?
Main problem: The B&N Shop can't connect to anything. Basically my device has no access to the B&N cloud.
Looking at the logs, I see this a lot:
Code:
W/ActivityManager( 1294): Unable to start service Intent { act=com.bn.cloud.IRequestHandler }: not found
Looking at logcat while the tablet boots, I see this related section:
Code:
I/PackageManagerService( 1294): /system/app/BnCloudRequestSvc.apk changed; collecting certs
W/PackageManagerService( 1294): Signature mismatch for shared user : SharedUserSetting{40597710 com.bn.cloud/10032}
E/PackageManagerService( 1294): Package com.bn.cloud.svc has no signatures that match those in shared user com.bn.cloud; ignoring!
...
W/PackageManagerService( 1294): Unknown permission com.bn.cloud.EXECUTE_REQUEST in package com.bn.nook.drpreader
W/PackageManagerService( 1294): Unknown permission com.bn.cloud.RECEIVE_NOTIFICATION in package com.bn.nook.drpreader
W/PackageManagerService( 1294): Unknown permission com.bn.cloud.EXECUTE_REQUEST in package com.bn.nook.social
W/PackageManagerService( 1294): Unknown permission com.bn.cloud.EXECUTE_REQUEST in package com.bn.nook.quickstart
W/PackageManagerService( 1294): Unknown permission com.bn.cloud.RECEIVE_NOTIFICATION in package com.bn.nook.quickstart
W/PackageManagerService( 1294): Unknown permission com.bn.cloud.EXECUTE_REQUEST in package com.bn.nook.reader.activities
So my best guess is that I borked something in my packages.xml so PackageManager thinks my 'BnCloudRequestSvc.apk' is wrong and completely disables the cloud service that the shop (and other com.bn.* apps) need.
I've tried wiping my dalvik cache and running 'fix_permissions' from the bootable CWM sdcard I used to root the thing, but still no luck.
I'd love to compare my packages.xml to someone who has a working shop, or hear any other suggestions anyone may have about what may be going wrong here, like why does the Package Manager say "/system/app/BnCloudRequestSvc.apk changed; collecting certs"?
Solved!
I solved this issue by doing the following:
Delete /data/system/packages.xml
Reboot -> This regenerates /data/system/packages.xml (ignore all force-closes, they are expected)
Power off
Power on with CWM SD Card, go into "advanced" and "Fix Permissions" (Built my SD Card using these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466583)
Reboot
Once it came back up, everything was working great!(*)
(*) One small caveat-> After that last reboot, it came up with the 'Homecatcher" app doing something incredibly weird: It was flickering and I couldn't actually choose a launcher... Thankfully I happened to reorient from portrait to landscape, then back to portrait, and it came out of it and began working just fine.
Now that I have the thing working again, I've compared my prevous "broken" packages.xml to the new working packages.xml, and found that my actual original problem was that I was missing a <packace> section for the com.bn.cloud.svc library.
That wasn't *quite* all...
Noting further steps here I had to take to get everything working again after this issue... escapde.
Removing packages.xml and running 'fix permissions' isn't quite the whole story. I also had to:
Reinstall all local apps to re-request their permissions:
Code:
[in adb shell]:
for app in /data/apps/*.apk; do pm install -r $app; done
Modify the permissions of all existing downloaded books and magazines in /data/media so it matches the new B&N UID:
Code:
[in adb shell]:
busybox ps
... Find the UID that all the com.bn.* apps are running with
... In my case this was '10020', aka 'app_20'
busybox chmod 10020.10020 -R /data/media/Books/*
busybox chmod 10020.10020 -R /data/media/Magazines/*

Application not installed??

I'm trying to install a certain .apk file. and it keeps showing me "application not installed".
I've tried it on stock, and it installs.
After checking logcat this is what it says:
D/PackageManager( 1399): Scanning package com.abcdef.android.abcdef.abcdef.apk
W/PackageManager( 1399): Cannot install platform packages to user storage
W/PackageManager( 1399): Package couldn't be installed in /data/app/com.abcdef.android.abcdef.abcdef.apk
I did some more investigation and it turns out it can install apps that install to sd card, but can't install system apps to data folder or the others.
How can i fix this?
Thanks.

Is there something I'm doing wrongly?
Thanks.
Did you try direct install?
You can try to install the apk by directly putting it to your sdcard, see if similar error comes.
do you really need the aosp launcher? i would recommend you apex or nova from playstore, many possibilities to customize and easy installable
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yes I need it because I'm modifying certain parts of it. If Apex or Nova are open source they might be possibilities though.

What do you mean by direct install? You mean putting the apk into my sdcard, and using some file manager to install it? I've tried that as well, it failed with an "application not installed" error.
why dont u push it to /system using some root explorer and then set permissions?

How would I do that? You mean adb push the apk file into /system without installing? What permissions would it require, and would it just replace the default launcher after that?
Thanks.
Edit: I tried pushing the apk and odex files into /system/app of my Desire Z running Mimicry 1.5.0 (since my S3 isn't rooted), where all my other system app apks are. I then chmod 644 the 2 files to match the others, and did a reboot, but nothing changed. Apex is still the default launcher, and I'm not sure how to change it.
Anyone? Thanks!

[Q] Media > DownloadService always running

hi guys, I hope you can help.. I really googled a lot about this, and also made many tests on my phone and waste a lot of time, but couldn't find a solution yet.. also this seems to be affecting many other people, so I don't understand how is possible nobody found a fix for that until now..
(I'm posting in general section because this seems to affect any kind of phones running cm10.1 + gapps)
the problem is that if I go to manage apps > running apps, I see Media process (DownloadService) always running! that could drain my battery and/or download data, in any case I don't see a point in having it always running, so I would like to get rid of it!
what I discovered so far is that the process is related to both gapps and Downloadprovider.apk package included in any CM10.1 build, in fact:
1. the process starts appearing only after installing the gapps (I use a very minimal 4.2 gapps package, about 10mb only)
2. if I delete Downloadprovider.apk package from /System/App, the process doesn't appear anymore
The problem is that if I delete the Downloadprovider.apk package then I start getting gapps related FC's and phone becomes unstable (and very probably will not be possible to download anymore things from the browser and/or play store)!
So what could I do to safely get rid of that process? Maybe disable or freeze some other apps/processes? But I wouldn't know what to disable exactly..
guys please help me I am really getting crazy with that! also that could help many other people :good:
thanks a lot in advance
EDIT: maybe it was related to Maps since I installed maps 7.x I don't see that process anymore!

Maybe you have some program/app installed which uses the download manager? Some app trying to download an update outside of the regular mechanism? I don't see DownloadService running on my phone unless I instructed it to download something. Do you notice anything downloadmanager/media related in logcat? If in doubt, attach the phone to a PC, run the following commands and attach the resulting file ('attach_me.txt') here:
Code:
adb shell 'ps; echo -----------;logcat -v time -b main -b system -b events -d;echo -----------;dumpsys;' > attach_me.txt
Use the full path to adb if you need to.
This shows the currently running processes (ps), the contents of the main, system and event logs (logcat) and a snapshot of the current state of your phone (dumpsys). If there is anything there you don't want to show to the whole world edit the resulting file before attaching it here.
thanks a lot for the reply my friend
tonight at home I think I will be able to run the adb command you suggested me (in my home computer I have sdk installed)
so far I checked logcat in terminal ("logcat |grep edia" and "logcat |grep ownload") and this is what I got:
$ su

I'm attaching also screenshots of the process I'm talking about
EDIT: I reinstalled everyting from scratch as a new build by quarx came out.. it seems that installing only cm build + minimal gapps, that process doesn't show up. Later after I installed back all my apps (via app2zip flashable zip) the process showed up again.. so probably you are right and there is a certain app using that process.. but how can I understand which one has relation with that service? maybe YouTube as i see it mentioned in logcat?
delete
i could generate the logs you asked without using the pc but using the phone terminal and multiple commands.. i'm uploading them to my dropbox links are below thanks in advance..

YAFU what happened to you?
it seems to me after I installed latest maps 7.x the media > download process is not appearing anymore in running processes.. maybe it was related to sh*tty maps??? :fingers-crossed:
