Taken randomly from one of other apps:

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/sdcard");
ui_print("brought to you by Average Joe's....All done");
ui_print("Done!")

Instead of just:

unmount("/system");
unmount("/data")

But again, I really doubt that this an issue here; I don't know why I mentioned that in the first place...

And I've seen (and also did myself) so many slight errors in updater-scripts before.. That's why I rather usually do it 'manually' with Terminal or a root file explorer...

Well if it's an issue then the apk wouldn't be placed in system and permissions set. I took my script from gapps ages ago when they changed the update-binary....yes I've been at this since froyo...Lol

Because it's working fine here and many many others, so if we can see what you all have in common we might be able to help. Otherwise don't post it didn't work for you either!

CM11-20141021—NIGHTLY-moto_msm8960_jbbl

latest device-specific philz touch recovery

zip flashes fine (again sorry for mentioning script)

It's like the apk is not recognized by the system because I do not get the "Android is upgrading 1 of 1 app(s)" upon boot like a new/updated system app would normally trigger (did thIs happened to you if it worked btw.?).

Apk is in the folder with its icon but not in the app drawer or manager.

Don't see much more to give as info atm... sorry.

Although it never really pleasant reporting problems, even less receiving them, I'm sure, I'd rather do it now and do what I can help sort it out than have this popup for another 50 pages...

What about CalendarStorage.apk should that be disabled as well?

Will give it a shot...

Edit: if I had a bet to place, it would be missing system library. Many people (me included) flash only partial Gapps packages. So there's most probably nothing wrong with TBO's calendar, but I'm something missing for goofle to be happy.

Yes it will prompt android is upgrading on every flash. That's screaming signature issues. But.....It's Google's signature...not a test key. Try signing it and flash it with the zip. See if the system sees it, might be a one off, normally don't sign system apps.

The first person to PM I'll send you my Inbox invite so you can enjoy the TBO version of Inbox.... Which is awesome by the way!

No need to reply here and ask for invites and have this spiral out of control and all that... Just simply PM me, no response here is needed.

Just want to share the blacked out goodness that's all. Hope this is OK with you DJ and the rest of TBO... if not I'll edit this post.

Signed the app (with test keys only), replaced it within original zip, re-signed the zip (same: test keys) flashed it and getting the same end result.

I didn't clear dalvik-cache to force an app opt/rebuild but I doubt it would help here anyway.

Edit:

After doing the above, I went in the system/app folder with RootExplorer then click and installed the app. It did, I've rebooted and I got the "android is updating". But then it was the "Calendar has stopped /report/OK" popup festival even after tuning off privacy guard, setting the firewall (allow calendar wifi access) and a reboot.

Re-flashed the original TBO zip, got android is upgrading again (promising, I thought) then same popups bombardment. Deleted that calendar and renamed my old one to revert to it, reboot: no old and trusted calendar in drawer. Dang!

I'm preping for M12 flashing now...hopefully I get the the basic CM calendar back -lol

Let's do first thing right: could anyone plz share the MD5 Hash of the zip please?

Thanks so much for the new updates guys, loving Inbox! [emoji1] [emoji122] I'm just curious if you guys are supporting the following list of apps, or if you stopped working on them: Bank of America, IMDb, PayPal, and Google Wallet. Again, thanks for your time and dedication to saving our eyeballs, TBO!

What you see in the updater is what's supported until you see otherwise.

I feel a little targeted here but I will refrain. Maybe you'd be surprised to learn what was on the path of some people...

On that note, I give up on the calendar (for now anyway). Tried after installing snapshot-M12 and got all the same over...

Sorry if I couldn't pinpoint what was the issue here, but enough headache for one day.

Cheers

    Team Black Out is a team of both veteran app "Inverters" and new-comers that want to learn. With over A lot of popular Blacked Out and Transparent Android apps in our list, we are sure to not only amaze you but to guarantee once you use our Themed Apps you'll Black Out for a while.. The Team isn't doing ROMS though. We are simply combining the great minds of some of the Best in the Business when it comes to making apps Blacked Out or Transparent. We have only a few team members now because some are planning on being lightly active, so if you're already into doing Blacked Out apps, hit us up if you wanna join. We don't want to train people from the ground up but you don't have to be the best either. We will are hosting guides on this site to help walk people through the process of Inverted Apps...



    T-BOTS.png





    T-BOTs are the Team Black Out Testers. When we update an app or start a new one from scratch, we can put anywhere from 20 minutes to 10 hours into 1 app for all of you and then testing that app can take 10-60 minutes and we don't use every app we Black Out so we're bound to miss some hidden things. Well, this is where our Loyal T-BOTs come into play. Once we update an app they get busy looking for issues for us. This gives us more time to be able to update more apps, start new apps or just have some non-android fun. So make sure you thank the T-BOTs when you get blown away from how amazing these apps are!












    Obviously this style is the most popular. We don't theme our apps with images but rather Invert the Colors so you'll have Dark backgrounds and Light texts. This is very popular and has become something that many avid Android users have come to thoroughly enjoy so we will do our best to give you more of what you love!



    Transparent.png




    Transparent apps have become more popular the last year or so and some members of the Team have been offering them for a while now. Our transparent series of apps are called Clear Apps. Being able to see your wallpaper while you're using your favorite apps is just cool! We'll be offering our own wallpapers soon for you to use!









    Ok kids... click on "Welcome to the Dark Side" at the top and it will take you to our official Team Black Out website! All downloads are hosted there only to keep track of everything. If you've used any of our apps in the past in your Aroma installers or in your ROM, you can still use them. Link back to our SITE wherever you post our content tho. Do not post something in a different forum using our work and then PM us to let us know and hope it's ok with us.... It isn't. Ask first and we'll work with you but ask for forgiveness and we have a problem.



    Thanks
