MultiAlarm 3.0 trial installation is broken when replacing the preview version 1.0.x (at least for me on my 7100). In fact, it is so broken that it is now impossible to uninstall MultiAlarm fully or even install any other version of MultiAlarm on my 7100. Let me explain further, perhaps someone can help.
Like everyone else using the preview version (1.0.something?), on the 20th we got a message saying the preview was expired. So I went to m.mobylo.com on my device's browser and downloaded the trial version of 3.0 OTA (after selecting the appropriate OS version, 4.1 in my case). After selecting "Download", I was asked by my device if I wanted to replace the existing version, which I did. After downloading, I was prompted to restart my device. After restart, there were now 2 icons for MultiAlarm so I assumed that the 1.0.x version was not uninstalled properly when 3.0 was installed (the text under each did not indicate which icon represented which version).
Selecting one icon would lock up my device for about 20 seconds, but other than that nothing would happen (i.e., no error messages or anything else -- literally nothing would happen except that my device was unresponsive for about 20 seconds). Selecting the other icon would result in an error message:

Well, I figured the problem was that I didn't fully uninstall the preview version before updating to the new version. So I went to Options->Advanced->Applications to uninstall MultiAlarm. In the list, only the new version was present, even though my device clearly shows 2 MultiAlarm icons. Not having any other choice, I selected to uninstall version 3.0.41.4. I was then told that my device would have to be restarted to complete the removal, so I clicked OK and my device restarted.
However, there is now still a MultiAlarm icon present (!), which I presume is the preview version, but going into the Applications list again does not show MultiAlarm at all. Connecting the device to Desktop Manager and pulling up Application Loader also does not list MultiAlarm. Now when the icon is selected on the device I get this error message:

So I tried to re-install version 3.0. However, the situation is the same: I still have 2 icons, and the first error message is still displayed when one is selected and the device temporarily freezes when the other is selected, and still only 1 MultiAlarm version is listed so I can't uninstall it fully.
I'm sure the problem was that I didn't properly uninstall the preview version first, but at this point I just want to clean my device of the thing. Any help would be appreciated.
