The "fix_permissions" thing reassigns the user directories to the user account assigned to the particular app.
When changing the system image, at least under certain circumstances (i.e. signed with a different key or something like that), the user accounts get shuffled and the apps themselves are sortof reinstalled. The end result is that the user accounts owning the app home directories don't match the user account assigned to the app, which means that the app won't have access to its own home directory. The "fix_permissions" script reads the user accounts and chown's the home directories to match the appropriate user accounts. And sorry I didn't keep up with that thread... it must have slipped down a little too fast. I don't know how much more I would have been able to help you with it though. Glad you got it running. Also, it is strange that I have to run fix_permissions after > flashing to get certain apps to work--what is that all about? > > The A2XMLPrinter2.jar thread was > here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=555334 > > I got the app running ;) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
