recently rooted and running cyanogen 4.1.999, prior to that I ran each release from 4.04 on. at least from 4.11 on, i've noticed something strange happening to my system that I can't quite figure out the cause. Off a fresh install, package installer works for loading .apks from the card. Somewhere along the way though, it stops working; I'll try to install an app and it will keep looping, bringing me back repeatedly to the install screen where it shows permissions and asks to install or not.
I've checked and unchecked 3rd party install permission, no change. I also tried fix permissions and that doesn't help, Only a wipe gets it working again until the next time it fails. Installing an app from the market works just fine, just can't install independently unless I sneak the apk into my system backup folder and restore via system app backupper, but that is a limited option since the program then becomes uninstallable. No other issues i've noticed on these roms, just the installer. Anyone experience similar or have some input on the matter?
you should try and repair ext filesystems in recovery if you have apps2sd. please report back if it works
nope
ext filesystem repair does not fix the installer loop
this only happens on cyan 4.1 and greater?
is it with a specific app? also did you flash the single flash rom or did you install by cyanogens official install method

Hello
I've just encountered a weird problem: Market is force closing upon install or update.
Here's my set-up:
DangerSPL, AmonRA latest recovery, CM 4.2.11.1 with 10mb CFS hack, Apps2SD on class 6 card, Various MetaMorph tweaks
Everything ran great since the rom came out, no errors, kernel panics or anything like that.
Today, I decided to install an app from the Market (Call Waiting Configurations) and update one of the existing apps (Pure Calendar widget). Both of them downloaded fine but Market force-closed once it tried to install them. I've tried: Reboot, Fix permissions from terminal, Clear Market cache
but problem persists.
The only thing that I did this morning was installing "Blur Animations' via MetaMorph which makes changes to framework-res.apk. Could that be my problem?
At any rate, I've ran a "Log collector" and submitted it to paste bin
http://pastebin.com/m6f301ec
May be someone can figure this out.
Thanks in advance.
hi all,i m newbi in nexus one, after i flash my n1 to froyo...i cannot insatall app anymore,can some body help me..pls...thank you very much!
It would be helpful if you could tell us:
1) Which ROM you used to get to 2.2
2) What happens when you try to install an app? Step by step, the actions you take and the result
3) Any error messages, codes, or other details that might help
I also could not install apps
I had the same problem. Here are the details:
1. ROM n1-Sh0t with kernal and new keyboard
2. Applications that would not install:
a) Nitrodesk Touchdown
b) MyTracks
I cannot give you much detail. I tried to install from copies on my sd card and just got a message that the app would not install. I also downloaded from the web using market and got the same message. The apps would download but would not install.

I was flash yesterday with this rom
1.Step_One_Froyo_Radio_Update
2.RoDrIgUeZsTyLe_FroYo_MCR_R16_MOD_V1-6_ROM
after this, I did well all with this rom (included install app to ext)
but..this morning I was reboot my N1,all app I install to ext cannot read anymore (lost icon at all )
then I cannot install any app again...(messanges show installing now.....long time but cannot complete)
I have the same problem, I can't install any apps. Not from the market and not apk-files from a file browser. It just keep saying 'Installing...'
I was on [email protected] MCR Mod Rom V1.7 and everything worked fine.
Then I tried out Kang-o-rama Froyo and that's when the problem started. I did a complete wipe before installing. I did a recovery, but when I was back on my nandroid recovery I could still not install any apps.
Went back to a stock 2.1 I had on my memory card and then I could install apps. But when going to 2.2 again I still can't install any apps.
I was install RoDrIgUeZsTyLe_FroYo_MCR_R16_MOD_V1-7__FIX rom
also try "n1-sh0t" rom
and then I try to install another app...but I cannot complete install at all
then I click “Dev Tools" (in laucher) \ Development setting
I got this message =
The application Dev Tools (process com.android development)
has stopped unexpedly.Please try again.
what's wrong with this...
can any one help me up..thank you
(sorry about my poor english)
then I go back to 2.1 rom,it run very well
So I deleted the '.android_secure' folder on my sdcard and did a recovery, now I can install apps again.
thank you very very much

External means that you're installing your apps on the sdcard. (They are installed in the '.android_secure' folder) If any widgets or apps that need root would be installed on the sdcard you should move them to the phone. You can do that by go in to 'settings' >> 'applications' >> 'manage aplications' and find that app, press it, and in its settings you can move it.
Anyways to your problem: The reason why you can't see some apps are because you're running LauncherPro as your home app. You can just kill it and press home so it will re-launch and then you should see your apps again. You might have to do that from time to time after you have rebooted your phone.
Froyo FRF83B stock
I having an issue, recently updated to FRF83B and have the latest radio 4.06 however having issues when I try to install an app from the Market (first it will download and then it will come to the installing part) the phone freezes and then restarts.
So I can not install any apps on the market, and I am searching far and wide for a solution, does anyone know what I can do to fix this up!?
I am experiencing some very unusual problems with my froyo installs, specifically when installing/restoring apps.
First the basic info:
Nexus One
Froyo 2.2 FRF 72 stock with root no radio update
Upgraded from FRF 50 stock with root no radio update
I used Titanium Backup (TB) to backup all my apps, I have done this countless times before. Everything was fine on FRF50, but I wanted to try out a modified ROM. Yes I nandroided, but the restore failed THANKS CLOCKWORKMOD!! I should have stuck with amonRA. Anway, I had no choice but to flash again. I tried a few from the forums with all the same results so I gave up on them and just did stock with root but still having the issues.
When I restored the apps with TB, i get about 90% of my apps restored then I get an error saying that my space is full (even tho I enabled the stock apps2sd method) OR TB will suddenly just stop restoring apps, again stuck around 94%. I am thinking, its okay ill just reboot and continue. Well I rebooted and all the apps were gone even tho they are obviously on the sdcard, i checked.
So typical solution:
force stop the launcher. that didnt work. i tried other launchers, nothing worked. i had no choice but to wipe and try again. trust me, i did this way to many times, i dont even wanna think about it.
So i thought there was an issue with TB, yes i clicked "problems", upgraded busybox, trust me, I did all the basic stuff, Im beyond that.
Then I tried installing every app manually, thats over 150+ apps, ya..it was annoying as hell. Then suddenly, I would get stuck at the installing screen....no app would install, not from TB, not from market, not from the sdcard...nothing.
So typical solution:
delete .android_secure
That only works temporarily, then its back to the issue.
The point is, it keeps happening. Like today, I install a fresh ROM, yes I wiped, I even partitioned the sdcard and within installing literally ONE app, I get this problem, no app installs after that. So I went and deleted .android_secure and everything seems to be working okay. But this will happen again, if I try to restore with TB now, the same thing will happen again. I have tried every combination of installing apps, using TB, wiping....nothing seems to work.
On top of all that, my apps wont restore automatically from the market when installing a fresh ROM. So my question, what do I do about this and has anyone else had this problem? Any help would be appreciated.
Update:
I called it. It happened again. Fresh install, installed one app, no apps installed after that, deleted .android_secure, everything was back to normal, started restoring apps with TB, stuck at 93%, nothing will install now...any suggestions? should i delete .android_secure AGAIN!?

Decided to install cyanogenmod 6.0.0 final today (didn't flash any of the nightlies/RCs), and now I'm facing the same problem. My titanium backup restores all appeared to be going well, and in fact I can even run the apps that were successfully restored without problems. But at some point in the restore it'll hang, and I won't be able to install anything from then on. In fact, when I tried rebooting the phone, it wouldn't even detect any of the apps installed on the sdcard (although, when I checked /sdcard/.android_secure, all the .asec files were present).
OP/anyone else, did you ever manage to fix this problem?
I've got the exact same problem
Tried 3 different roms after wiping everything and I can't seem to install any app.
TB does not install app and neither does market and this is starting to get very annoying.
Same problem but with specific apps:
Wi-Fi File Explorer Pro (most important as I paid for it)
Angry Birds
Google Sky Map
My other 100+ apps restored from Ti Backup or installed from the Market.
I have logs that say "unable to open secure container" but who do I send them to?
Enom from TheOfficialRom has stated that restoring from Titanium is really not very good practice. I had the exact same thing happen to me when i first installed his rom; enabled apps2sd, restored all apps and data with titanium backup.
Here's the catch, and might help you. I then did a wipe (don't wipe ext too!) and when it came up all of my apps were installed and worked fine. I even went through and manually restored all of the data from the apps and they continued to work fine! Just don't restore "System" data, set that stuff back up by hand. So in this case, the apps are "already installed" and for me worked fine, even after restoring their data (not the apps themselves, as they were already on the ext partition). This fixed my primary issue ("all" apps failed to install or upgrade).
However, I continued to have periodic problems with certain apps as I had also enabled dalvik-cache to /cache which works if you don't have a bazillion apps installed, but I have >115 and my /cache was always 100% full and caused app installs to fail. Some were fine, some were not. Don't know why, but I know (after wiping again) and NOT moving dalvik-cache, zero problems. I even repeated the process back and forth a few times and dalvik-cache to /cache = fail for me. You can check in his Spare Parts if you're using his ROM, or just df in a terminal if you've moved the dalvik to make sure where it's at isn't full.
Hopefully this helps some.
I had this problem earlier on after trying a custom rom moving from FRF91 when it first came out. I had to go through the market to get the apps, but titanium would restore the data after i installed the app... i think.
The Clockword nandroid kept failing on me too. BUT, i found if i tried them a second or third time, they would actually work.
I finally made the jump and rooted my Droid 1 today and installed CM6. I had issues with Rom Manger giving me an error when trying to download CM6 with Google Apps, so I downloaded the ROM from the web and installed it manually. Works like a charm.
I tried to go back to ROM Manager and just install Google Apps, but it keeps giving me an error during downloading.
I still need the Google Apps installed... I have downloaded the zip and moved it to my SD card, but can't figure out how to flash it. (been searching the past hour for an answer) I have gone to recovery mode but it looks like that is only to update ROMs (update.zip) am I missing something easy here?
Thanks

It depends on what Recovery image you are using. For some reason ROM Manager gets a bad CRC or other error when downloading the GApps addon update zip. Don't know why. However if you get the latest file directly from the CyanogenMod site (hardware appropriate of course) you can install it from the recovery screen.
I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.1 and it allows you to specify a .zip of any name and directory on the SD-card (you have to mount it first). I'm not sure if normal SPRecovery allows for that. Make no mistake, installing the GApps is basically a ROM update, as it installs them to the System apps folder (which is essentially read only).
One thing to note once you get it installed. Sometimes you get issues with updating the ROM's apps (including GApps). This was notoriously noticed with the new Car Home and the new YouTube apps. In order to fix it, you have to use RootExplorer, TitaniumBackup or another SuperUser enabled browser or app manager to forcefully remove the system app, then get the updated app from the Market.
I hope that helps.
I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.1 but didn't see a menu item for installing zip files. I ended up renaming the Gapps file to Update.zip and flashed it in recovery mode. Worked like a charm.
Thanks
Do any of you have this error itself?
I'd like to see if I could make sense of it. Back when I installed Cyanogenmod 6.0.0 on my new phone, about 2 weeks ago, I was able to install it with GApps with no problem.
This may seem like a ridiculous question at first glance but I can't work it out.
I have an international I9305, stock 4.1.2 Rom and no root with over 10Gb storage spare.
For some reason I'm randomly unable to install 3rd party apks. I've checked the box to allow installation from unknown sources. Just now I've downloaded the AirDroid2 beta apk, went into ES file manager, clicked the apk file but can't click install. I get the permissions list and the option to cancel but the install button is greyed out. The cancel button works fine. If I wait a few hours and try again apps will install without issue.
I tried installing another apk that previously installed without issue but that won't either.
Installing apps from the play store work as normal
Reboot didn't solve it.
So: Has anyone else come across this issue? Any idea how to work around it in future?
Edit: Worked it out. Turns out the app Screen Filter stops you installing third party apps when active. Never even considered it would have made a difference.
