It seems if you install an app that has the same shared ID, then uninstall it, it blows away the other app's permissions. I was thinking that the dxTop demo would share preferences with dxTop full so that a users upgrade would be smother (was going to code it eventually), buy when the user uninstalls dxTop Demo after installing the full version, dxTop full stops working until the user reinstalls. It can't do anything because of permission denied errors.
