[Q] Were are the games? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Last night i installed 2 games together with 20-30 aps after a hard reset. However they do not appear anywhere. Not in the app drawer or in the application manager.
When I try to reinstall them it asks to replace the application and then once I press install it says "out of space, free up some space and try again".
How can i delete them?
Please help I don't want to hard reset again cause it took me forever to get all the apps and setting right!

On Home Screen Long Press Home Button Then Task Manager Then Select Package Tab

Thats the problem, they dont appear anywhere but when i try to install them again it asks if i want to replace and then it gives me the not enough space error.

"OK" Button Not Right on Tilt Since ROM Update

I updated my Tilt's ROM to the latest version, doing the reset trick to skip installing the AT&T bloatware just as I had done with the previous ROM version.
All seems well, except that my "OK" button no longer works like it used to. When I press it now, it minimizes/hides some applications instead of closing them out. Previously, it closed them (like tapping the "X" does). Is there a way to fix this without installing the AT&T software?
What's interesting is that it works correctly with some apps, but not with others. For example, if I have the camera or phone dialer up, pressing the OK button completely closes them. But if I have Pocket IE up, pressing OK only minimizes/hides it.
go into task manager. goto options, then make sure "press and hold X to close" is not selected. if it is, select the other one and it should work.
Thanks for the tip. I just checked, and "End programs by tapping 'X'" is selected (not "End programs by tapping and holding 'X'").
So theoretically, things should be working--but they're not. In addition to PIE not closing using the OK button, I just noticed that File Explorer doesn't, either.
I suppose you could try using Quickmenu (attached), this also has options regarding the "X to close" command. Give it a try if you want, I personally can't live without it
HButton all the way, I have my ok button set to <ok/close> if i tap it and <quit> if I hold it.

Thanks--I'll check that out.

Freeze and reset on close apps

Hi,
yesterday evening I've found a new problem: when I close any apps using the "X" button in the right top, the Diamond freeze and I must reset it, instead if I can close the apps using the Exit voice from the internal menu, the app close correctly.
I've got the same problem if I try to open the application management menu that appears only in the home (with the list of open apps and the 3 icons). I click on the "little arrow" in the right top and the Diamond freeze.
If I go to Start -> Settings -> System and then i click "Managed Programs" the Diamond reset.
I think is a problem of Windows Mobile.
Anyone had the same problem?
Thanx

Something happened to my phone... Please help...

I don't know what happened to my phone recently but for some unknown reason, I was unable to open Marketplace and Opera Mini Beta 5 this morning. For Opera, it opens then closes right away with no message. For Marketplace, it opens then closes with a force close message. All other apps work fine.
So being desperate, I cleared the delvik cache (or whatever the option is in the boot up menu) and that seemed to fix the marketplace force closing. But for Opera, it wouldn't open until I did an uninstall/reinstall. Now I notice that there's something wrong with the Movies app. It says the app is not installed when I tap it. So I go into the Marketplace to install it again and it says that it's already installed with no uninstall option! I go into the settings => Applications and it's not there.
What the hell happened and how can I fix this please?

You probably have some left over files on your SD card (if you are using one that is). Clear everything from your card, and then reinstall.

HTC Hub App Trouble

Got my HD7 yesterday morning and was really happy with it, even more so when I found out that the HTC Hub contained links to apps which retained some of the functionality I was used to on my HD2 such as Flashlight and a phone enhance functionality app which enabled the ringtone to get quieter when it detected it was picked up etc.
But upon trying to start these apps I was directed to the MarketPlace which attempted to download them, except it kept coming up with this error: "Can't play or download. There's a problem with the licence"
After re-attempting several times I found that around 1pm yesterday the apps disappeared altogether and that the HTC Apps section on the Marketplace is now completely empty.
Is anyone else getting this problem?
didnt have those options on my hd7, im guessing its not a problem but more of a mistake htc put links there. i would say its just a waiting game, i know from my desire that i have got too that it takes awhile for the apps to appear and some of them are definitely worth it
They were gone when I looked. Hopefully they'll be back!
remove first
I had this too after it tried to upgrade them, just go to the programs list press and hold on each of them to get the pop up menu to uninstall. Then go back to marketplace and install again.
Yeah, I noticed that this morning they have re-appeared (yay!!).
Only problem I'm having with the HTC apps now is just with the one I really wanted - the 'Attentive Phone' app which brings back some the HTC Senseness that you didn't see from my old HD2 (such as quiet ring at pick up, louder in the pocket and automatic loudspeaker when phone is screenside down on the table).
It downloads. It installs. But try to run it? Nah. You select the program the screen goes black, thinks for a second, and chucks you straight back into the programs list. Dammit.
I sent an email to HTC yesterday about their app trouble but have yet to receive a reply. I just hope that they know that this particular app still doesn't work. Although it is nice to have Flashlight and the other fancy ones back and up and running!
Attentive Phone installs and runs ok for me; and the features work as advertised.
However the flashlight app can't install, and the "love" app (god knows what this is) won't run after it has been installed.
There's also the Lists app (for groceries, todo lists etc), and Notes is there too. I find the Microsoft Shopping List app is better though.
I've got all to install and only the flashlight app doesn't run. I'll try uninstalling and re-installing.
Update: uninstalling worked fine but on attempting to re-download I got an error '8000ffff'. I discovered by accident that if you press and hold the app in the 'downloads' screen, it gives you the options: 'retry' or 'delete'. Retry worked and the download and install completed correctly. Unfortunately the flashlight app still doesn't work tho!
First of all to fix error 8000ffff in windows phone you have to go to “Start”
Now in order to open the app list just swipe your screen from left to right.
Now this list gives you the entry of valid apps as well as those apps which are downloaded automatically due to error 8000FFFF.
Slide to any of the invalid app and press and hold it in order to get the option and press “uninstall”.
Similarly you have to uninstall all the invalid apps that are downloaded automatically due to the error 8000FFFF.
You’ve successfully completed the task to fix error 8000ffff in windows phone
i have a problem with ma window phone when im trying detting up my window live id accounts..its need an activation code to finish setup plz can i obtain an activation code fot htc hd7t9292

How to remove this adware / virus

I've tried Google but it didn't work so basically I was downloading stuff from the internet and one of them must've had some nasty virus cause now every single time I unlock my phone I get this name-less app that pops up with this virus notification (how ironic). So I tap the menu key to bring up app switcher and the app is name-less with a white theme. So I go into the Smart Manager and check the RAM to see what information I can get but it doesn't appear there. So I go to the settings app, Application manager > Running and the very first thing, taking up like 66MB of RAM was that ad app. So I tap it and the uninstall button is greyed out! So I tap "stop" to stop the app and it finally goes away (I had the app open in that small window and it disappeared after tapping "STOP"). By go away I mean it probably just got temporarily stopped or it's frozen but if I go into the "all" tab, the first thing is this nameless ad app. 6.50MB storage used, version 1.0 . The permissions basically say it's got control of my SD card and full network access, nothing else. I don't trust it at all to not have root access but I don't think SU asked me anything about root other than file explorers and Kernel apps (was trying to find a way to overclock for fun)
tl;dr There's a nameless app that shows a fullscreen ad saying I got a virus and the uninstall button is greyed out.
I got root so is there a way of finding the location of the relevant files in ES File Explorer and deleting them maybe?
Download Samsung Package Disabler and you should be able to disable the app. Or you can try Titanium Backup and freeze the app and possibly uninstall it.

Simply factory reset, it is way better than finding the app. Format storage, then re install the rom. It will sure wiping the virus.
