[Desire] MIUI Backup always FC when trying to backup Programs

[markusmuster]

Due to the log entries it seems that the backup application does no have the permissions to close the apps to backup. Well, but actually how do I grant the Backup.apk the permissions?

Take a look at the backup.apk and open the androidmanifest.xml. There should be a line saying:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.FORCE_STOP_PACKAGES" />

This is what your logcat refers to.
I'm also on a Desire, although not on the miuiandroid build, but my backup works just fine..
You could also try checking backup.apk with root explorer and see if permissions is set correctly.

I also have a HTC Desire (gsm) and I have succesfully made a full backup without any Force Closes. However I did not yet try to restore though.

Well, there is this attribute. But how do I set the permissions correctly?
