[Q] Anyone losing programs?

---

Have owned the Photon from the start but I keep loosing programs on a random basis. I am running the latest software, rooted (torpedo), std bootloader and lose root and multiple programs on the unit. Tried storing programs on SD then main memory but the problem keeps occurring. Most times program icons are still there but will not activate. Some widgets stay while others are gone as well. When I click on application is shows the programs are installed but are not functional. I have had to do three factory resets over the past few months then using Titanium to restore. Has anyone else had or read about anyone else having this issue?

Check this thread. Sounds similar to your issue: https://supportforums.motorola.com/t...60867?tstart=0

Might be a fix somewhere in that thread for you.

Do you have AVG antivirus installed? If you are then you need to remove it. I lost root due to having AVG installed, my programs are there but unable to run. I removed the AVG , re-root and re-installed super user. Everything then work fine.
Hope this help

Please install aLogCat. The next time you try and open up an app that subsequently fails, go to aLogCat, save your logs to a file, and review what errors were thrown by the system. You can post the logs here for further help deciphering them.

Worst case scenario is that your internal Flash storage is going belly up and you'll need to have the phone replaced -> aLogCat logs will help you prove that.

No AVG installed.

Thank you I will install it. What I did do that seems to be working is when doing a factory reset I neglected to wipe my Dalvik area. So I did a wipe three times and performed a re install using Titanium backup as all seems to be working for the time being.

Sounds good. I'm glad you're working fine.
