no idea why this happens. when i download something or update an app the completed notification randomly keeps reappearing even after clearing. i clear the notification and then 15 minutes or so later it reappears. keeps happening for days on end. the only way to stop the notifications is to go and clear app data.
this is inconvenient and stupid. why are these notifications reappearing after being cleared?
anyone else have this problem or have any idea how to fix it?
anyone Bueller ?
Is this with Android market aka Google play? Or amazon appstore? Either way try to go into settings and clear the application data and then do a reboot. Let us know if this solves it.

android market.
as i said the only way to clear it is to go in and clear app data. when i hit the x it clears but then just reappears again in a few hours. the only way to truly clear without reappearing is to clear app data which is unlike every other android device i've had
I'm running a Rezound with the latest leak's radios, etc., and CleanROM Pro 4.5. For some odd reason, I can no longer get notifications from Google Voice. I have to open the app to see if anyone's called me or left a message. Anyone got any idea what's going on?
I had this happen once on my Eris...
Go to Settings > Apps > Google Voice, then clear data and clear cache. Then reboot the phone. I always go to recovery at this point and erase the cache partition and wipe the Dalvik cache.
After you reboot the phone back into your ROM, you will have to open up Google Voice and set it up again and redo all your preferences, but it should accept push notifications after this.
I've seen alot of people having problems with Google voice on CleanROM.

I've got the same problem. In order to get my texts, I have to go into my app and refresh. This makes it seem like the sync isn't working or something. I followed these steps and had no luck.

Hi folks! Well, I just thought I should stop by and ask cause I can't find anywhere else an answer to my problem.. Here it is:
I have an app that when someone downloads it from the Play Store, recognizes the phone and connects to a server (Internet is needed) so every time I open it I have all my data and my "app activity" shown there. So, here's the thing: I want to sell the phone to a friend of mine, but I don't want (neither does he) to reset to factory because he wants a large amount of the apps I have already intalled and it is part of the price.
So, I ask you: Is there a way to completely remove-uninstall an app and ALL of its data so that there is no way for the app to have MY data displayed (no trace left), and basically the app is "reseted' to factory, so that my friend can use from scratch?
Thanks!
Under application manager select the app you want to "reset" and hit clear cache.

Hey! Thanks for the answer, but I have already tried this and it doesn't work, nor does the deletion of data files of the app in the data\data\[app folder]... Does someone else knows something else I could do?

Accidentally thanked you...
I have been trying to do something similar. There is a game I downloaded (scarface) and played. I tried clearing cache, uninstalling, even formating internal memory through recovery + flashing a new ROM but when I install the game again my previous game info/data is still there !!! Fuuuuuu :nomegusta:
In your case you can try an app like mybackup or romtoolbox to backup apks to SD. Factory reset/flash new rom. Then use same app to install all the apps back minus data.

I think Titanium backup provides the perfect solution for you. You just have to open the particular application and Select Wipe Data.... It just deletes the data that YOU HAVE SAVED AFTER INSTALLATION OF THE APPLICATION OR GAME.... Hope I Helped....

I am also checking different forums to find a solution to this type of problem.If you have noticed any one of the same , plz let me know.
Try deleting the com.appname folder from root/data/data
ps. will need root permissions for that
i think clear cache and clear data in app manager in settings can reset it.
In your case when you dont want to factory reset and remove all your activity from game server you need to contact game developers tell them your situation and if they are kind enough they will help you.
Well many time game devs don't trust you completely and refuse your request. in this case you need to reset your android device ID Which requires ROOT and an app that Reset your device ID.
Its not the game data on your device its your game activity linked to your Device Activity. Factory reset change the device ID some time so you can backup your apps like many of our friends suggested and factory reset your device than restore apps from back up.
one last thing many game has there data linked to your gmail account as well. :good:

An off-topic question: is it good the free version or is it necessary to buy it? I'm using it (still kinda new on the root thing) and i want to now if it's worth than the free one.
clear cache/data. and removing files from file manager for any hard downloads like images,videos etc...
For anyone still trying to find a different method
Go to settings
Click on "apps" "app manager" or whatever else it might be called on different devices.
Delete cashe & data from desired apps.
Also do it to google play and play games app.
Add a new email and delete the one you had before.
Make sure you log out of all apps before starting the process. Some apps will manege to keep you logged in even after deleting the data.
Dropbox is the app that keeps me logged in even after delete cashe and data.
Having trouble installing an app completely no matter what I do
The apps I'm referring to are Mobile Strike and Game of War. I want to start over with this game but it keeps saving all my data. I don't have a new device so I can't simply start a new account. I've tried encrypting my device and then factory resetting, and even creating a new gmail account, but the data is still there. I have a moto e. Thanks in advanced.
Thank you.
I had tried everything.. but finally this worked.
I dont know why google wants to do this stupid thing. Uninstall should mean complete removal for any app.. why it preserves residues to torment us.
You can also get sdmaid app. It has many useful tools but one is a corpse finder and you can wipe all these leftover residue files using that with a push of a button or set it up to do it on its own. Super awesome app imo! Check it out! One of my personal favorite apps!
As the title states, I was wondering if anyone out there happens to know why restoring an app+data from Titanium Backup after a Factory Reset causes Push Messages (GCM I believe) to stop working. It seems fairly obvious that when restoring an app+app data from a previous installation, they get confused and the push messages aren't being delivered to the right place.
So far the only solution that I've found to the problem is to wipe the app's data, and restart from scratch.
I've done a lot of Google searching, and I have seen that there are a handful of other people who have had this same problem, but I have yet to see anyone come up with a working solution, though there have been a few things I've tried. This is my normal procedure I do when I upgrade/flash a new rom:
Code:
-Backup with Titanium Backup
-Backup with GO Backup
-Nandroid with TWRP
-Factory Reset
-Flash ROM
-Wipe Cache/Dalvik
-Boot
-Sign into Google Account
-Install Titanium Backup
-Restore previous Android ID
-Reboot
-Use Titanium Backup to restore Apps+AppData, as well as some system settings
-Reboot
At this point, some of my GCM push notifications don't work. The only way I can get them to work again is to wipe the app's data and start from scratch. I have tried the following things, none of which worked, but they might provide helpful information.
Code:
-Wiped the app data, restored the app data by itself again.
-Uninstalled the app, installed from Google Play, restored app data.
-Used Application Manager to disable notifications, then re-enabled.
-Went into the app's settings to disable notifications, then re-enabled.
-Cleared data on Google Services Framework
-Removed Google Account, cleared data on Google Services Framework, rebooted.
[B] (This actually had an even worse side effect of re-breaking GCM push
notifications for all of the apps I had fixed by hand)[/B]
At this point I'm at a loss, I'm not sure what else to try. It kind of looks like the Google Account/GSF is related to GCM. I don't remember exactly, but I think I tried restoring the previous GSF App+Data on my most recent flash, and it still didn't work.
Anyways, I'm kind of rambling, if anyone is able to provide any insight or help, it would be greatly appreciated!

XDA app
It does NOT affect the following:
Code:

try to restore only data on titanium backup, not restore app&data
Don't forget to hit THANKS button
I've tried that way, but it didn't work either
Bump for a new day D:
Would love help on this, I have the exact same problem...
I've had this problem for a long, long time (a year or two). If there's a solution, I haven't seen it yet.
Glad that I am not the only one.
Add me to the annoyance list.
I can't figure out how to get SSG2 to notify me, and that's not an app I want to clear data on as it will lose my level saves.
Voxer also has this problem.
Interestingly enough, the Risk style game LandRule has a way to refresh the Google sync services and it works perfectly.
Multiplayer->Notifications->Having trouble...->Refresh Registration.
Very handy tool to have available, need to find a way to spread to other apps!
Try removing and re-adding your Google account. After trying a few things, this either fixed it for me, or was just coincidental timing.
I do see that you tried this... but do it without clearing GSF data.
So glad I found this!
I had been researching why Voxer lost GCM notifications, with no luck and getting frustrated. Eventually stumbled across this thread and problem solved. Back story: two days ago I flashed a factory image and restored user apps & data from TiB. Never would have guessed that any thing to do with GCM "breaking". But sure enough after reading this, I cleared data in Voxer and all is well.
God bless XDA for all the little things like this. Couldn't own a phone without it.
We could really use some type of GCM interface to relink or whatever, if that's possible. Maybe even TiB would be a great vehicle for that?
OK I'm confused. So this problem is not solved?
Solved my particular problem with Voxer by clearing data. Problem with it breaking to begin with not solved.

So, interesting update for folks in this thread.
My push notifications in SSG have finally been fixed with the latest update.
Now I don't know if it's because something in the update fixed it or because the act of updating from the Playstore re-synced with you/Google.
Will be interesting to check next time I flash a ROM and start from scratch. Will certainly be keeping an older version of the apk to update from if needed
Had the same issue. Lost all push notifications from Whatsapp and other gcm-enabled apps after flashing to CM11 and restoring apps+data with Titanium Backup. Finally tried using the Push Notifications Fixer (root version) app and all of a sudden, my Whatsapp notifications are coming in fine. Not sure if the app really fixed the issue or if it was just a coincidence..

[APP][2.2+][ROOT][FREE][12-SEP-2013] Push Notifications Fixer v4.1
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Anybody else having luck with that app?
Doesn't do anything for me, tried activating service, changing to 5min and resetting to default but doesn't fix push notifications from Voxer, SSG2 or LandRule...
Anything I'm doing wrong?
I'm using the latest version of TiB and my push notifications never work after a restore. Ive been manually reinstalling any apps that send me notifications after trying everything else others in here have tried. Basically TiB is only saving my WiFis for me these days. Subscribed for a fix!
Has anyone tried backing up and restoring app data with nandroid backups and apps that handle them, instead of TiBu? OBackup, ROM Manager are a couple of apps I believe do this.
What I did is backup app+data but reinstalled from PlayStore and opened up app to where it asked you to login and then goto TiB and restored Data and it worked for me!
I wish best to luck to everyone!
Also having the same issue but I've restored so many apps that I don't know which ones, other than the obvious messengers and the like, use GCM and might have it broken. I did at least figure out that deleting the app data (or uninstalling/reinstalling from the Play Store in my case) fixes the problem on an app by app basis.
A thought occurred to me but I haven't tried it myself... Has anyone tried restoring an app while using SuperSU? I seem to recall Titanium prompting that normal SU isn't very good and should be changed for optimal results but I've always ignored it. Maybe it's affecting that part of the restore.

Tested my own theory with Voxer and it didn't help.
for me "Push Notifications Fixer" didn't resolve the problem with Whatsapp and UppTalk. To re-enable notifications and not lose data I do this:
1) delete AppData
2) open the App
3) login
4) restore AppData
like badboytw suggested above...
Hey I tried looking for an answer to this and couldn't really find one
My phone consistently gives me the "unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped" and a bunch of different variants of that with different processes or apps.
I have tried wiping the cache and disabling apps but honestly WTF
I can't figure out why it does this. This happened to be before and a factory reset fixed the issue but this time it seems to be an issue with one of the basic apps I'm installing.
I don't know if anyone has run into this and has some guidance.
Would a fresh stock firmware solve this?
when in doubt, open the settings/apps and clear the cashe of the offending app.

I have cleared the cache of every app and it just doesn't stop. It's the most frustrating thing I've dealt with.
May just buy a new phone at this point....
if it is that bad then reset your phone to factory defaults, also make sure to check the settings so it doesn't automatically install all of your old Apps, so you can install them one at a time to see which one is causing it.

How do I fix the issue once I figure out what app is causing it? Or do I just forever say farewell to the app in question?
