Root Too many FCs!

[JSS12]

So I recently upgraded to CM7.1 from 7.0.3 - after that I had no issues. a few days ago I started seeing a lot of FCs so I went into Rom Manager and "fix permissions", but that didnt help. Then I went into ClockworkMod (which I recently updated to 5.0.2.0) and tried to "fix permissions" from there. I am still getting FCs all over on apps that I never had any issues with before.

Any ideas?
Complete wipe is not something I want to do at this moment... but will if no solution is found

thanks!

Go into the application manager and clear the cache and data from the larger applications, or download ng cache cleaner from the market, it will do it for you.

I did a full wipe before installing CM7.1 and for some reason CACHE CLEANER NG didn't come back with titanium backup... curious what else didnt make it back... hmmm

You are usually a genius, and I'm sure you will still figure it out... but not yet... still getting FCs...

So you restored stuff with titanium? That is probably where you problem is starting, try just restoring the apps, without the data.

I get very impatient and sometimes I don't wait for your wise advice.

As such I already did a full wipe, and restored apps with Titanium Backup.

The apps I was having issues with are still a problem. For some of them the issue could be within Titanium - for those, how do I restore all apps without data? Can I just run the batch operation and that will over-write the current apps or do I need another full wipe to get rid of the old information?

I have been having a problem with Netflix, which was an app I downloaded a few days ago straight from the marked, wasn't on my last titanium install (but was on titanium for last nights wipe and restore). any ideas for that?

Side point - While restoring my phone, I had made a backup of ADW EX but when I tried to restore it, the only thing that was restored was the number of screens I had and nothing else. Also, is there any way for me to backup my CM7.1 settings so I don't have to redo all the settings every time I wipe?

Thanks SDRAWKCAB25!!!

I would start over again with a clean install and use the ROM for a while without installing anything to make sure you have a good download.

Second I would install the apps that your having a problem with directly from the market.

Then you can do a batch restore in titanium and tick the box at the top that says "app only". Then I'd only restore data for apps one by one that you actually need the data for (games, wifi, etc). Any other app I'd manually log back into (Facebook, phandroid, twitter etc). You also want to go through the list of apps that titanium is restoring and make sure it's not going to restore anything from froyo(2.2) system preferences or anything from HTC sense.

I'm not too sure of saving settings with CM, every time I've used it, I was coming from a different ROM and would of had to set everything up again. And I personally prefer to manually set up everything each time, gives me a chance to clean up clutter, and I don't change ROMs that often. The process I described above is the way I install every ROM, and I RARELY ever have a problem.

The Netflix app is one of the main culprits of the "low on space" error seen on stock roms and unrooted phones. That error manifests itself in a different way on AOSP ROMs by causing force closes which is why my first recommendation was to clear your caches.

I just uninstalled Netflix and Flick Golf (continual FC), everything seems okay and I think I'll be fine without those 2 apps for now..

You actual add data one app at a time? that is so time consuming!

Thanks for all of your help!

I actually don't restore data for any apps, other than Bluetooth and wifi pairings. Every app I use syncs with the "cloud" and only requires me to just log back in to retrieve info.


If I do come across an app that I need to retrieve old data for, I'll manually restore it with titanium, but I can't remember the last time I did that.
