[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quendil:
Hehe no worries.

I had the same problemand after a few hours of troubleshooting i did a hard reset... THEN i remembered that setting!!!
[General Topics] xantonin:
Hello all,

I'm attempting to fix an issue I've had since updating to Android 4.3 on the Nexus 4 (clean wipe) and restoring some apps with Titanium. Since then, I noticed I cannot download any apps from the Amazon Appstore. I receive the following:

Deleting data, cache, Dalvik cache, uninstalling the app, and re-installing, do not solve the issue. Research indicated the issue could be caused by the 1-click settings for Amazon, but enabling and changing both that and the Mobile 1-click did nothing.

So I went into the logcat, and found this:

E/AmazonAppstore.DownloadTask(12529): ... 9 more
I/AmazonAppstore.DownloadTask(12529): finish(FAILED, DownloadTask:MSG_EXCEPTION:
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia/files/apks/1272d3ae-4a98-46
bc-a73f-0df13367f194.apk: open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)) called
I/AmazonAppstore.DownloadService(12529): downloadTaskComplete, id = 20

I went into the Shell of my device, and found the following as my /storage/ directory:

shell@mako:/storage $ ls -l
ls -l
dr-xr-xr-x root root 2013-08-17 10:28 emulated
lrwxrwxrwx root root 2013-08-17 10:28 sdcard0 -> /storage/emula
ted/legacy

It looks like the Amazon Appstore is trying to hit a directory that doesn't exist: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/

I don't know if anyone else has this issue, or why my Appstore keeps trying to hit a directory that doesn't exist, but I'm going to attempt to symlink the path it is looking for. Please advise if there's any issues with this, or if anyone has any suggestions.
[General Topics] xantonin:
Weird, why would the directory show as root, but not as the shell?

root@mako:/storage/emulated # ls -l
ls -l
drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2013-08-11 18:29 0
drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2013-08-11 18:29 legacy
root@mako:/storage/emulated # exit
exit
shell@mako:/storage/emulated $ ls -l
ls -l
lrwxrwxrwx root root 2013-08-17 10:28 legacy -> /mnt/shell/emul
ated/0
[General Topics] xantonin:
Resolved

After further inspection, the folder exists but can't be accessed. I tried making a now folder to the com.amazon.venezia folder but kept getting permission denied. So I uninstalled all Amazon apps and tried to get rid of the directory.

I tried removing the folder with a file manager, no go.

I tried with root, no go.

Finally I rebooting to recovery and from a shell I rm -rf'd the mofo.

I'm going to install the Appstore and see if it works now.

Update: Yup, I'm able to install everything now. Hopefully my little adventure here helps anyone else that runs into this same odd problem.
[General Topics] lininjim:
I've flashed four roms today to try and resolve this, can you please detail exactly what you did?

Thank you

edit

OK I couldn't find /storage from TWRP command line so I booted back up, uninstalled the amazon app, using root explorer I renamed the folder. Reinstalled amazon app and it worked.

So thank you for the heads up :)
[General Topics] xantonin:
Glad you got it working! The issue is definitely related to the Amazon folder permissions being messed up.

Seems the solution is completely removing the folder or renaming it.

I'm glad my documentation helped. :)
[General Topics] cso5874:
Question...

I am having the same issue, and I would like to get your help, if I may.

Which folder are you refering to in this post, are you pointing to the com.amazon.venezia folder?

Where can I find this folder?
[General Topics] xantonin:
I believe I was referring to:

/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.amazon.venezia/

If you are re-installing it, you may delete any com.amazon.venezia folder.

Hi, this is my first time on this forum, buy a Dell Streak 5 second hand, but they said comes unlocked for any company, I've checked and I put the SIM CARD but does not work when selecting the operator says it is not possible to associate, I hope is the right place for my question and if someone can help me unlock it for use with any company, let the phone data.

Model: Dell Streak

Android Version: 2.3.7

CPU: 1.1 Ghz

Kernel version: 2.6.35. 14-DSC-Team-Phoenix n0p @ ubuild # 216
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MaggiesStreak:
Its surprising you'd have an Android version that high. It depends on what part of the world is was made for, maybe.

Streak 5. Rooted with Gingerbreak. Stock 2.2. Build 15697 (353). AT&T
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ace38:
It's MIUI 2.4.20. That's android 2.3.7.

Maybe they meant rooted instead of unlocked.

Try on cellunlocker or other site to buy an unlock code.
[Nexus S Android Development] cn.fyodor:
Hi folks,

There seem already many AOSP builds for NS, but I'm just pleased to share my personal build with you. I took the Google source and CM kernel/vendor as a base and have done lots of optimization work. My changes for NS after forking CM vendor were listed in the changelog of the initial build. Devs can check out commits on my github. It may worth a note that it's AOSP so never request extra features. No doubt I will keep it as stock as possible.

Credits:

clearly go to CM Team and all worked for our NS

steven676 for SurfaceFlinger and other patches

Download:

Final Build | MD5: 47af680bd273732d751de65656f62f7e

I don't hold the Nexus S any more, so if something in the final build does stupid for you, fall back to Build 6. And at last thank you again for your support.

Issues:

panorama preview. Check out CataHd's reply for the fix.

android-4.4.3-r1.1 build can be found in this reply. Panorama issue has been fixed.

You can find out all changes on my Github. Remember that AOSP ROM doesn't include Gapps, you have to install/flash it yourself.

only problem with superuser..I must install zip from recovery !!

then all ok !!
[Nexus S Android Development] cn.fyodor:
Thanks for trying. :P But Superuser was fixed for weeks and works for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
no my friend .. I flash 3 times to make it sure and no work :P

if you go to settings superuser then u will se that u cant change anything in superuser settings..

also check with root checker..

but don't worry !! this is nothing for this super rom !! I try all aosp 4.3 rom and this is the best for me !!
[Nexus S Android Development] cn.fyodor:
I tried changing settings in Superuser, every option works like charm. I always chased the changes of Superuser by Koush and the hack in that Superuser zip was included in my ROM. Afaik the tweak is just to run '/system/bin/su --daemon' for the root requirement.

OK, anyone else got superuser issue? xD
[Nexus S Android Development] ej8989:
Works fine here.
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
I don't know ..is not work here for that I flash the zip ..

sorry but is ok to flash the zip ? or I must try again without the zip ?

*now I remember that I get notification that su is out date and I forget to click ...

Downloaded and installed the latest superuser.zip and the su binary out of date notification is gone
[Nexus S Android Development] velishka:
Very good job. So happy to see the deveopment for our old phone continues.

Now, I can confirm Superuser doesn't work. Flashing SuperSU from recovery fixed the issue pretty fast.

Other than that the ROM is very solid and smooth. I tested SMS, Location services, Wi-Fi, left phone without a charge for a night. No problems so far. Will test bluetooth streaming later today in my car.

I have the same issue with calendar like any other non google build has, I have two of them, one is AOSP build another is Google's from the play store. That doesn't bother me.

Also, I still want to know what kind of "optimization" was done. Also, can anyone test MTP for me? I turned it on using USB Switcher, but my computer didn't recognize the device.

Great job, I hope the project continues.
[Nexus S Android Development] cn.fyodor:
[MENTION=1871006]leap_ahead[/MENTION], velishka:

Let's rule out some exceptions about Superuser issue. Did you do factory reset before flashing? I hope the old Superuser app didn't make noise. Although you guys have fixed it manually, I still hope someone can paste the output of command 'getprop persist.sys.root_access' and check if the /system/xbin/su is running when you can't get root permissions. Thank you.
[Nexus S Android Development] lagloose:
Hey,

just had a closer look at your build and found the interesting property 'ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit' in your build.prop which is set to 8. Are you sure this works in your build ? (I only ask because this was seen only in CM until now)...

[Nexus S Android Development] cn.fyodor:
Yeah, CM merged that commit from Codeaurora afaik. Bet you haven't checked out my github yet. xD
[Nexus S Android Development] leap_ahead:
I connect the phone to car radio so it ok !

for root you can flash the superuser from koush too ...

[Nexus S Android Development] lagloose:
Used this baby for 3 days now and have to say that it has the best memory management for 'low-memory' devices i've seen until now. Whatever you did cn.fyodor, very good work. !

I've noticed that CM has already reverted the commit for property 'ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit'. You should take care that this is not reverted in your sources because IMHO this is one of the essential things which gives us this better memory management. The relevant part can be found in line 105 of https://github.com/Juansheng/androi...s/java/com/android/server/am/ProcessList.java in your github.

Greetz
[Nexus S Android Development] cn.fyodor:
Thanks for your suggestion. Actually I once changed MAX_HIDDEN_APPS back the default value in Gingerbread for low memory devices nine months ago. Check this commit. ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit was just introduced by Codeaurora recently. And yeah CM have already reverted this prop and added a new prop for high memory (> 1.5GB) devices since more CM supported devices hold more memories nowadays. I'll ignore that commit. :P
