Most probably you haven't changed all IDs inside that plugin.

For example, when you register admin menu page, you have to pass its slug, which is unique identifier for that page. If you register two pages with the same slug, only one will be visible.

It's the same with registering options, custom post types, and so on...

So renaming only functions won't solve the problem...
