Unfreeze not working

I was trying out the SD Maid feature to freeze an app. When attempting to unfreeze I get this message:

"Nothing to worry about, but something went somewhere not as intended.

Check android debug log for further information."

I've been looking all over for the "android debug log" (obviously, I'm a noob :confused:).

I installed the aLogCat and had it running while attempting to unfreeze in 'SD Maid' but searching on "SD Maid" or "sdmaid" doesn't yield anything.

When this issue emerged I searched in vain here but only found the recognition that indeed there is such an issue when using 'SD Maid' with ICS on Samsung ROMs.

So, what I'd appreciate to know is how I can unfreeze the app.

Should I just delete the app within 'SD Maid' and then restore it from a Titanium backup I have?

Cheers!
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
*yawn* good morning :-)

H'm i need to change the don't worry message, without turning Debug information on (SD Maid->Advanced settings->Debug) there is not to much info in the log.

What you should search for in the log is "eu.thedarken.sdm", which is SD Maids packagename.

You are indeed correct, the issue is with Samsungs new ICS ROMs, more specificly somekind of "EDM policy" which probably stands for enterprise data management policy.

I'm not sure why exactly they need this and implemented it, Samsung :rolleyes:...

A new version of SD Maid is almost ready which has additional routines in place to deal with this, in the best case it can now freeze and unfreeze regardsless of this EDM policy, in the worst case it can freeze/unfreeze them but needs a reboot inbetween.

I will probably have it on the market by this evening, but if you mail me, i can give you an early copy.

btw delete and restore works, but is more of a last resort method :-).
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
Just uploaded v0.9.8.5, changelog is in the 2nd post of the thread.

The mentioned freeze/unfreeze fix is included.

Thanks to everyone who helped me test.
[Android Apps and Games] Pachuqero:
Update v0.9.8.5 / unfreeze app

The update worked. Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] djsolidsnake86:
can you add a option for clear dalvik cache?
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
I can certainly add it to my TODO list, either as a more inteligent dalvik-cache cleaner, comparing with installed apps or in the MISC section as an easy delete all button.

But deleting the complete dalvik-cache will cause FC until you reboot...
[Android Apps and Games] sublimaze:
you should change the "corpse finder" icon to a zombie :p

Great idea. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] aries77:
maybe you can add it to clean cache file too??
[Android Apps and Games] vlt96:
No do not add it!!! My phone had FC until reboot once, but once I ended up with FC forever, factory data reset didn't help, had no zip of the rom, ended up googling on my PC how to fix it...(now I know how, I am the only one in this forum who knows the only way to fix that problem, and it is pretty common, symptoms are: home key not working, settings are reset, launcher FC, etc etc... it is fixed by pushing provision.apk from the rom zip and set permissions to 644, clear dalvik in recovery and everything is back;))

Dalvik-cache should ONLY be cleared in RECOVERY!!

Oh and can you add app2sd to app control? Root app2sd?:):)

[Android Apps and Games] vlt96:
Still, dalvik is still cleared, I don't see the point..

Seek the signature below the line;)
[Android Apps and Games] scarmon25:
Dalvik files are left behind from app uninstalls and things like that. They can build up from time to time and need to be cleared. Also clearing Dalvik cache can help fix troublesome apps.
[Android Apps and Games] vlt96:
Nope leftovers are cleaned by sd maid in clean system and corpse cleaner in sd maid, dalvik cache is not leftover, and should only be cleaned in recovery (you gotta reboot anyway)

Seek the signature below the line;)
[Android Apps and Games] scarmon25:
I feel this is incorrect. Reason being it this. I am constantly flashing ROMs and mods. I manually debloat using SD maid. I then run corpse,system, and app cleaner. Then I use Titanium Backups dalvik cache cleaner and it always finds left over dalvik files. So either the dalvik cache cleaner of SD maid needs some tuning or it isn't being touched by SD maid. I am a huge fan of this app but I haven't seen where it does in fact clean dalvik.
[Android Apps and Games] vlt96:
You will better clean from recovery, apps are limited, better from recovery... and everyone has tb, clean it from there, can't you??

Oh and cleaning dalvik should be done in recovery when flashing rom... lot lot easier

Seek the signature below the line;)
[Android Apps and Games] scarmon25:
Yeah. I always wipe data, cache, and dalvik when clashing a ROM. But as a routine cleaning it would be nice to have that included. If it is then great. If not its really not a big deal. I also think a auto clean option would be nice. Not a scheduled cleaning but more of a clean all button that runs the corpse cleaner then system and app cleaners. Maybe even the SQL vacuum too. But that would be more of a luxury feature. One of those nice to have but not necessary options.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
SD Maid doesn't do anyting with the dalvik cache at the moment, except when you do something manually via explorer/searcher.

I haven't spend too much time on that topic though, i will look into it at the time and evaluate if there is some work that SD Maid can do.

Will keep you posted on that if there are any news.

For automating certain features, i.e. "cleaning run". I will keep that in mind when redesigning the interface.

I so much want to buy the pro unlocker, but i don't have a credit card as i am just a student.

Wish google accepted debit card.

It is frustrating that i can't get the application even though i am willing to pay for it just cuz i don't have a credit card( quite impossible for a guy my age in India):(
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
Send me an Email to support AT thedarken.eu

I'm sure we can find a solution.
[Android Apps and Games] scarmon25:
Google does accept debit cards. If your care has a Visa or MasterCard logo on it the it will take it.
[Android Apps and Games] kewl420:
in India, i think it doesn't. i tried my VISA debit card but it didn't worked out.

Sir why cant i run SD MAID in my i9003 with custom rom? When loading at start. It is stocked in "checking unlocker" then FC.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
You are mostlikely are not using the latest versions.

SD Maid should v0.9.8.5 and the Unlocker v1.5.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
Made a site for SD Maids translation too:

http://www.getlocalization.com/SDMaid/
[Android Apps and Games] marshygeek:
but i downloaded the app in market?
[Android Apps and Games] Zbaraszek:
I love SD Maid :* Polish translate is in 95 % completed ( on getlocation my name is Zbar). When the PL version will be on Google Play Store ?

[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
You will have to send me a log (app "aLogCat"), for me to be able to give you more specific help.

Can't say yet, will see how far other translations are from completion and how fast i can finish the changes i want to bring in with the next update.
[Android Apps and Games] :
A little more feedback on the translation website:

I would like to be able to delete, or at least have a powerful vote, on threads. As it is now I'm probably the only person translating it into Danish. I can't make changes because if I propose a change, the strings that you pulled from the previous xml gets "rated" higher than my change, even though I upvote it.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
I just took a quick look, but all translation i found from you were ranked as "1st" and would have been used if i downloaded the translations.

I will look through the rest later.
[Android Apps and Games] slonn:
If any help is needed with translating into Danish, let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] myechophone:
when we remove/ uninstall any app, does SDMaid automatically create a backup somewhere on the phone or SDCard?
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
No.

No backups are made.

It would defeat somewhat the purpose, if SD Maid backs up the removed app, no space would be freed ;-).
[Android Apps and Games] myechophone:
Thanks for clarification. I was curious because if I remove any system app I do not want to be left helpless incase something went wrong.

Anyways, now I know that I need to do a small backup offline (not in phone) of all system apps so that there are little surprises.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Alright, guess it isn't a problem then, some of the translations just looked like they were ranked 2nd.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
Small update incoming, mostly translation updates.

A few small tweaks.

Entries in the duplicate finder are now sorted by size (biggest first).

[Android Apps and Games] Lycoss:
i purchased SD Maid Pro Unlocker and it is a great app, you have my gratitude Darken! i do have to report a problem: when i use the Application control feature and i use the filter to search for apps, sometimes it freezes the phone and all i can do then is restart the device, or other times it crashes and says that the app has stopped working. This happens randomly in Application control feature when i use the search filter, on Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100), stock ROM.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
I will try to reproduce it.

Can you mail me a stack trace of when it crashes?

The app aLogCat is quite useful to do that.
[Android Apps and Games] Grooxian:
easy and useful. thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Lycoss:
I will try with aLogCat after finishing setting up the phone and backing up nandroid.
[Android Apps and Games] scarmon25:
Hey darken. I have a SGS2. I'm getting random reboot when running the system and app cleaners. Would you suggest increasing or decreasing the shell delay in settings. I know its there to help counter these issues but not sure which way I should adjust it. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] abc_x3:
Im using this tool in my HTC Chacha, it's pretty awesome. A very tiny problem is in landscape mode wit the phone like Chacha, i cant move to another functions on top wit left or right navigator key if the functions are out of the screen. I only can slide it by my finger.

My version is the lastest version i download on Gg Play Store.
[Android Apps and Games] Lycoss:
Ok, so i started SD Maid and i started removing bloatwares again by using the Application control feature and i noticed that some of the crashes ("Unfortunately, SD Maid has stopped") occur after the device comes back from lockscreen in the middle of refreshing the list of applications in the Application control, where it says "Working...";

I attached logs made with aLogCat;

I'm not sure if it is relevant at all, but here is the list of bloatware i usually remove:

[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
Theoreticly increasing, but the shell delay is there to counter a rather specific issue on dual core devices with requesting shells too fast.

But i doubt it will help here.

The system cleaner starts by just requesting one shell and doing a huge search on the complete filesystem.

This sounds like this huge search crashes the kernel, issuing a reboot?

What ROM are you using?

That is currently the intented navigation method.

What navigator keys?

The new UI will allow swiping left and right to switch features + tabs and a dropdown list. So probably won't change this behavior in the current version but you will have to wait for the new UI version to finish ;).

Thanks. That definitely narrows it down and i will look into it.
[Android Apps and Games] scarmon25:
Using AOKP. It may be a issue with this kernel since its not quite source built just yet. I know its not the app as it works fine in stock ROMs. That's why I was curious about it. Temporary fix until the source for ICS if released and they can get a source built kernel and fix it permanently. It doesn't do it all that time. Just occasionally. So you think going from 35 to 45 for time being would suffice
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
Try it. No harm done except sd maid getting slower.

As I don't know what the problem with the ROM/Kernel is, I can't really say what will fix it.

A higher delay in that setting will slow the app cleaner, but doesn't really slow the system cleaner.

Does a search for all files in the searcher cause reboots too?
[Android Apps and Games] MidnightDevil:
It's been working fine for me :)

Thank's!
[Android Apps and Games] scarmon25:
I increased it to 45. Ran all the cleaners and no reboots. I wouldn't concern myself with it too much honestly. I know its not the app cause it didn't start doing this until I flashed AOSP ROMs which for my phone are using a hacked kernel until source is dropped. Mainly just doing it to find a temp fix until a full source built kernel is available. As for the file searcher. I haven't had it act up using it yet.
[Android Apps and Games] Lycoss:
remove odex?

I see that SD Maid does not remove also the .odex files of the removed apps in AppControl; Why?
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
I haven't had the time to come up with a safe deletion routine.

And often the system removes them automatically.

An extra dalvik cleaning routine will come with an update. Android fragmentation doesn't make it an easy task, I want to be pretty sure before I write something that deletes something automatically ;-)

.
[Android Apps and Games] Lycoss:
Thank you! You are right, better safe than sorry.
[Android Apps and Games] vlt96:
Well, you should find a way to find out if a rom is odex or deodex, and if it deodex also delete the file with same name, but extension .odex instead of .apk

Just uploaded a small update.

Nothing major, most of my SD Maid coding time is being invested in the new UI.

It is coming along nicely though and i finished an early alpha version yesterday.

Now its time for fine tuning :-).

Unlocker got an update too, as i added portuguese as a language.

v0.9.8.7(57)
@Common
- Added portuguese(brazil)
- Added SGS3 external_sd path
- Updated languages
- Some code cleanup
@Duplicates
- Fixed highlighting

Feature request. Can you make an option under the last tab to initiate the SD scanner. I am running AOKP and none of the SD scanners seem to work right.

Perhaps a feature that lets the user control which processes start when the system starts; Cleaning software usually have that, like CCleaner on PC for example; This would be very useful.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
I already wanted to do that, an "Autostart Editor" :D.

It will probably be the first new feature to come after i'm done with the new UI.

It's taking a bit longer than i first thought as i am taking the chance to also overhaul the internal structure.

But afterwards its both awesome on the inside and outside ;).

Locks Up on Samsung Galaxy Exhibit

Run the program twice on my phone to remove corpse files. Locked up phone both times. Had to pull the battery to restart. Also removed a file from Kaspersky Antivirus program and had to reinstall. Too bad it doesn't work was looking forward to getting rid of left-over junk.
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
I don't know why it locks up on your phone, but if the corpse finder picks up a needed file from kaspersky, they used a weird if not wrong naming convention.

You can exclude it manually by long pressing the entry in the corpse finder.

[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
If everything goes well, i hope to later put up a beta version for you guys to play around with.

It is still a beta, but runs okay on my devices and shouldn't set your device on fire :D.

I have still some TODO, like:

- Improve jellybean compatibility (there are some issues, especially in appcontrol)

- Refinements on startup procedure

- Some gui work in the explorer

- Check a performance issue in the appcleaner

- Add an advanced setting (Enable experimental features) which will be pro version only

- Add duplicatefinder auto selection by path,date,random as experimental feature

- Check feasability of browser cookie cleaning as experimental feature

And any bugs that you find, hopefully not alot :-).

Will the new beta be SD Maid Pro version or be sold as a different app (say HD version)

Looking to get pro for my Tab 7.7..

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] Dark3n:
It will "just" be a huge update.

Everyone gets the new UI + improvements and if you want to take advantage of the pro features, you will still need the unlocker (SD Maid Pro), just like now.

I thought about making it a new app, but it didn't feel right to me.

I might increase the unlocker price slightly in the future though.

The only unlucky ones are users on Android 1.6 and lower, as i had to raise the minimum to Android 2.1... :( might offer a legacy version for those.
