Hi everyone. I just recently flashed the new 6.0 froyo cyanogen and its amazing. At first, when I flashed it I had 2 problems.
1. No Market app
2. I didn't get a setup screen for my gmail.
That problem I fixed by downloading and flashing the google apps zip thing.
Now, there's a new problem.
1. Market continues to say "connection failed, retry or cancel" for everthing I try to download. I press on and download.
2. I basically cannot download anything at all.
3. Youtube as well isn't working... I get the same thing as the market.
I did see a google chrome apk in a cyanogenmod website, it said it would help? I don't remember with what though.
Do I need SDK in order to use apps?
- Thanks.
Did you flash the correct google apps? It schould be named gapps-mdpi-FRF91-3-signed.zip.
Did you wipe before flashing?
What version of CM6 did you flash? If it was a nightly, try another one ore RC2.

Yes, thats the name of the Google apps i flashed. The name of the cyanogen rom i flashed is -
update-cm-6.0.0-DS-RC2-signed
I tried flashing everything once more on my rooted G1.
This time i flashed DangerSPL. It was probably the reason it didnt work. I will post back if it works.

Why is that download so damn slow?
Mediafire is a real good Hoster to download directly to my cellphone, but for now, it downloads only with 5kb/s . Just boring :S
I hope this Version works for me, until it's down in 6 Minutes^^
EDIT: Does not work :/

are u running 2.2+ android ?
honestly I'm running CM6.1 final with 2708 kernel/hack
I never tried installing manually and created the flashable update and it worked like a charm on CM6.1 Final 2708
It simply replace Vending.apk to the newest version and chmod 644 /system/app/Vending.apk also...
You do need a recovery that accept test-keys AKA rooted & unlocked BUT why aren't rooted yet ?
Thank you
This looks great. No problems I just flashed and it works great!
I got this to work by going into "Titanium Backup" and on the MARKET app, chose the wipe data button, then un-installed the old version of "Market".
Then I rebooted and ran the update.zip and it worked!
Hope this works for you!

I did even release a 2.3 sdk port to G1 since so much ppl were kindly asking for it
Nothing worth a mention IMO lol
I'm gonna give a few of my spare time to G1 dev <3 paste your adb logcat on pastebin so I can check
That would really help

Thanks for your input, update wanted ?
It could delete more & do it all, just being safe here...
I can't test on so many android devices atm !
95 downloads so far since a few hours not all bad it works !
ok it didnt work for me...im using mytouch 3g...it flashed but the market says loading then goes white...i didnt nand (noob move) but i know froyo will just reinstall all the apps but i dont feel like going through all that.
does anyone have a flashable version of the froyo market so i wont have to wipe? thanx in advance
I'm wondering how to flash this onto a phone o.o
I'm new to the flashing, rooting etc stuff ><
Edit : Continued searching and found out it has to do with recovery mode. Just cant figure out how to switch to recovery on galaxy 3
Did a nand backup, flashed the zip, rebooted, FC on Market before even launching, launched Market and a white screen. Restored from nand to get back up. Running OTA 2.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811620)
Any ideas? Manual installation via ADB?
To save you the trouble of putting the adb method , you can refer to my post .
It does the same thing but manually and its working for sure (Eclairs and Froyo ) : )

Cheers !
I just got this OTA update for market. I just backed up my old market, then installed this from the SD like a regular app. I didn't have any problems or need special permissions. Maybe someone could try this if they're having problems with the flashable or adb.
Two threads?
Ok so someone else started a thread for this in the development section which I thought to be weird, just wanted you to know, here is the thread. Personally I would rather just have one, yours : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=872526

did exactly what he did here, nd works like a charm
is this flashable to sd card? I have cyanogen 6.1.0 android 2.2(froyo). Its probably a dumb question. But I'm asking this because theres another thread which indicated on his post that he didn't make his flashable. And its similar to this except that one runs on adb. So I'm wondering if this is flashable?

same rom..same problem
even doing adb doesnt work
Okay. So i have my g1 rooted. With froyo 2.2 cyanogen 6.1 ROM. As you may know, it doesn't come with google apps. So market isn't available. I've been looking all over the web. Trying each and everyone's market.apk and market.zip . All doesn't work. I tried normal install from a file manager. Nothing. Tried adb process. Pushing it. Still not working. Tried android command, still not working. And finally, your file, which i flashed. Still didn't work. All of them I got the same. When I open market, I just get a white blank, then after 5 seconds, goes back to the desktop screen. Any ideas to help me? Would really appreciate it.
Or I was thinking of doing this. Reflash the stock android 1.6 with root and then try the market. If it works, use nandroid back up. And then flash cyanogen 6.0 froyo 2.2 and restore the backup that i made with the market. DO you think that will work?
succesfully installed on my g1 cynogenmod but the market get fc when i try to download

Have you installed the google apps package after flashing cyanogen rom ?

Just wanted to post, thank you. Running SS4.9 on a droid, was having problems getting this app to work until your post. Downloaded and renamed to update.zip and so far is working like a charm.
Thank you very much.
My girlfriend has the G1 with stock 1.6 and I believe the makers of Words With Friends (Zynga) removed the app from 1.6 compatibility - it now requires 2.1 and above. She therefore can no longer download it from the Market.
This is a free app so there is no copyright or piracy issue here. I did find an APK via Google, but it has strange bugs (not the usual bugs with this app) such as she ends up in a game where it is me vs. me, but not her. Have tried all manner of uninstalls, reinstalls, and new WWF accounts. Must be because it is not designed for 1.6 any more.
Does anyone have access to the last well-behaved APK for Android 1.6? It used to work perfectly fine for her.
Hmm, why not just upgrade her G1 to the current version of ROM? Then she won't have that problem. Just curious.
Thanks. Unless I'm mistaken, 1.6 was the last official release for the G1 from Google, no?
I did upgrade another G1 to the Cyanogen version of Froyo, but it always ran slow, got worse, and the user ended up getting rid of it due to this, so I am cautious.
In short, is there a simple ROM that will bring her up to 2.1 on the G1, without slowing the phone down any more than it currently does?
Preferably a ROM I can just download and install via the update.zip method, without all the rooting and hacking. Thanks!
Yes, 1.6 is the official release by google. If you are expecting them to release the next one that will include 2.x, you might not even see it.
Even with 1.6 it's still slow (IMO). And you can't load any other apps on because most of the apps now a day required 2.x and above to work.
Since you asked, I recommend SuperAosp, and it's currently has 2.3 on it. I have been using it since March and loving it. Default load already is fast. With radio 2708/SPL 13d and the 15MB-boot from the DEV. You can also tweak it more for better performance, etc...
As far as not rooting, to my knowledge that's probably impossible. You will required to root in order to load any ROM.
Thanks! Is there any simple step-by-step guide to install it, using a Mac? I can mount the SD card on the Mac so simple file operations are fine.
I'm not sure where to get the appropriate Radio zip for example.
Thanks!
I actually took the plunge and installed the recommended SuperAosp from stock 1.6, and Words with Friends wont let me log in. I tried WWF 3.34 and 3.20 and both of them let you put email in and then it asks for new user name. You put it in and it goes back to the email. I've tried multiple emails and user names & it just goes right back. So if anyone is using a rom that works with WWF would love to know.
I ended up installing ezterry's Froyo and it works great! Make sure you wipe all data and caches first.

Oops sorry, I don't know how I missed this. It should work. I am using it. It's because your user name is taken. I ran into that problem before. I am currently using it with SuperAosp 6.4.2.
My problem is now in some of the game. the letter that was played will not show up from my opponent. It will not display correctly.
i got a 1.2 nook in today.
wrote an image to my 8gb to get clockwork recovery. after that, i used manualnooter.
reboot and everything looked good. i could open android market and whatnot but since im an android cell phone user, i wanted cyanogen mod on my nook
flash the latest nightly/gapps but couldnt get past the "touch the android to begin screen." did the four corners trick and it worked but there was no android market and googletalk wouldnt work (i would press it and it would auto close itself)
then i flashed miui, got a bunch of FCs.
then i flashed phiremod, same problems as the latest CM mightly.
my questions:
1. whats the most stable rom?
2. im use to everything working on my phone, are there just some things that are not going to work on the NC? obviously text messages and phone arent.
3. how do i get android market on there (so i can get google maps/youtube/etc)?
thanks
You probably need to repartition your nook if it came with 1.2 pre-installed

i dont know why but im about to partition it
any reason why i should be doing this?
The new nook colors have a different partition system than the old ones. Sometimes affecting installs.

This is the guide I followed and everything went smoothly:
[GUIDE] Install CM7 + Clockworkmod to EMMC - ALL NOOKS! (Updated:7/30/11)
eyeballer said:
This guide is intended to take you through the (mostly windows-based) steps needed to replace your internal nook rom with CM7, gapps and clockworkmod recovery 3.2.0.1 (latest as of 6/5/11) all on EMMC. This will work coming from any previous rom, including the latest stock software (excluding dual boot set ups, not supporting that here), no previous rooting is needed for a new nook, however don't forget to boot stock and register the device before flashing to CM7.

sweet! repartitioning did the trick. market is up and running
however, some applications i cant install. i can search for it and click on it but there is no install button => Facebook, Groupon
did some google searching, says its a problem with the new market. can anyone confirm this? one solution was to force stop/clear data on the market application. tried that and it didnt work. help would be appreciated
edit:
found a thread for my problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1207811
for future nc searchers: uninstalled market updates under manage applications in the settings.
I bought used milestone 2 days ago and it is slow. I know its rooted because there is superuser icon.
But because of my noobity i dont know what he installed then. Strange thing is that it says Android version 2.2.1 which should be Froyo, but launcher looks like Eclair.
Screenshot pics are below, can you conclude what has he done? And what would you suggest?
About phone in settings: ttp://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/222/20120927013327.jpg/
Home screen like Eclair: ttp://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/713/20120927013831.jpg/
Im not allowed to post links so i removed letter h from my screenshot links. I hope that doesnt break the rules. I apologize if it does.
If i were you, i would definitely do a Factory Reset. Not because of the launcher (probably it's just a custom one), but the slowness.
Besides that, i would install kabaldan's CM7 or CM10.
I did factory reset and everythings the same, so i decided to install something else.
It is already rooted but i dont really know what im doing so i would like to go by some of those tutorials for rooting and installing rom. Can i do the same process as if it wasnt already rooted?
I mean, is it a bit more simple if its already rooted?
Would i mess something up if i did everything from the beggining as in tutorial?
THIS is the best tutorial you can get.
It's for CM7 which you can download from HERE.
But if you decide to give CM10 a try, you will find a link to the latest nighly in my signature, and a guide to make it bootable here.

It took Motorola forever to bring the 2.2 Update - but still they didn't manage to integrate the Froyo launcher.
Might as well be the official 2.2.1.
Anyhow - the stock roms are pretty bad - use CM (7 or 10, I prefer 7) or something CM-based (like MIUI).
The installation process is the same for every ROM.
Flash vulnerable recovery partition, install Open Recovery, wipe, apply update.zip.
For details refer to the tutorials Erovia posted.
