Hi guys, i bought a galaxy tab 2 7" (p3110) and i had it running the stock fw. Everything was fine and i decided to flash it with clockwork mod and cm 10.1.3 (meaning i have 4.2.2 android version). Everything seems to work fine but the weird thing is that i cant run anymore applications which i install from apk files. I tried with so many games that i had installed and were working fine at stock fw. Does anyone of you know why they not running anymore? Is it the version of the android, something with google's license maybe? (when i install apk files there is a message which informs me if i want google to check apps that i install outside of play)

sorry, i should had explained what the problem was. Anyway i had renamed the folder some days before my problem from obb to Obb. I didnt know that would cause a problem for android's proper operation. I noticed that when i was trying to rename or delete the folder Obb i couldnt do so (because it was used by Android, its like trying to rename or delete a system folder at Windows). So after a lot of thought and tries i unplugged my tab from my pc, opened the built in cyanogen file manager, deleted the folder Obb, created a new folder named obb at root of my sd and moved that folder into Android folder with file manager. And that did the trick, my games were playing fine after this. I never thought that a folder named Obb instead of obb would cause so much trouble.

help me please i renamed my obb folder to obbs just for fun and thought i would rename it again to obb but as soon as i renamed it to obbs, it made a obb folder of its own
i was okay with that and thought that i would copy contents of obbs to obb and then delete obbs
but both the folders are now showing empty
whenever i try to delete obbs it fails every time...
and obb is also undeletable
the biggest problem is that both folders are now write protected and i cannot do anything
please help
i dont care if my obb files are gone
i just want to use the obb folder and dont want it to be write protected...
pls help

The poster you are asking for help hasn't been on the forum since December 2013 so they won't see your message. Many have quoted a factory reset resolves the issue.
