Strange Market download problem - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I did a BART backup of my G1 and restored it to a different G1. Now everytime I try to download an app. It continuously says "Starting download..." and just hangs there. The strange part is that the downloads are actually trying to download on the old G1. I've tried deleting com.android.vending in /data/data which didnt help. Any suggestions?

Wipe the other G1 lol
try this also
adb shell mount -o rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
adb shell echo "ro.config.nocheckin=1" >> /system/build.prop

Updated to Cyanogen 4.2.5 quick question

I was previously running cyanogen mod with black-ice theme.
I've now updated to 4.2.5 and even though I've done a wipe and repaired the ext filesystems some of the icons are from the black-ice theme and also unable to update maps from market and some bits are left from the black-ice theme.
Should I also format the partition which has the apps?
Also running fix_permissions from console gave the following error message
cat: can't open 'data/system/packages.xml': no such file or directory.
I know there were some instructions on running fix_permissions as used them before but forgot to write them down and now unable to locate the exact sequence via search option
regards
update:
followed the instructions below
#mount -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /system/sd
#cd /system/sd
#rm -rf /system/sd/*
#reboot recovery
I then done the following steps as well
alt-wipe
installed 4.2.5
fix_permissions.sh
rebooted, but again some icons are still from black-ice theme
regards
I am pretty sure the only way to get the Google Apps icons back would be to Flash the HTC image and then flash CM 4.2.5... If I am wrong, I am sure that someone will correct me...
Think I've sorted it
google maps was force closing all the time, even with using the fix_permissions so ran the following which I found on another thread on how to install a different version
#mount -o remount,rw /system
#rm /system/app/Maps.apk
#pm uninstall com.google.android.apps.maps
#find /system /data -name \*google\*maps.apk\* -o -name Maps.apk | xargs rm
rebooted phone, then downloaded it again from market place
the only ones left with the wrong icon are google mail, market and you tube
Just flash a new theme and you will be good to go.
If you originally used the HTC Recovery to flash CM, you can use my theme template to flash back. Make sure you update google maps from the market again though

This will remove all apps so, I hope you didn't install hundreds
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm /system/sd/app/*
rm /system/sd/app-private/*
reboot recovery
Now wipe your dalvik-cache, and you should be good to go
Getting ;-
mount Can't find /dev/block/mtdblock3/system in /proc/mounts
is there another way?? Or should i just keep trying??
Now getting invalid Argument???
Only App i really want back is Download crutch.

Root Issue FRF91

I have...
Nexus one
FRF91, android 2.2
Radio: 4.06.00.12_7
Recovery: Recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.1
I fallowed all the steps on unlockr.com to root my N1. I see the Superuser Permissions installed, but I still don't have root access. I attempted to delete the amazon mp3 app from my phone with the fallowing command:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/*amaz*
and I'm replied with a Read-only error. Also, when I installed Titanium Backup, i was not able to gain root access after SU prompted me for permission (i allowed).
I have tried to re-root the device, but I'm told by superboot (updated FRF91 version) that the device has been rooted.
you gotta remount the /system to make big changes like that..
so you would go
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm /system/app/amazon.apk
and should remove it from there.. you can also get terminal emu from market and use that with in terminal

Market download fail
E:Can't open CACHE:recovery/log
i've tried but damned cache always full
so I tried flashing the 1.100 bin twice, both times it failed, or so it thinks. rebooting the phone brings up the older splash screens and then the phone loads and i'm on 2.21 again. So I try to run the adb commands to clear the cache, but I get mount-o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock7 (and 6) /cache not found. rm -rf /cache gives me the error Read only file system. I also cannot load up the recovery image due to no free space issue.
cache is still full
Launch again this command, but from recovery, not from Android. :
adb shell rm -rf /cache/*
If it does not work
adb shell "mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock7 /cache"
adb shell rm -rf /cache/*
fastboot -i 0x0502 erase cache
adb shell df
cache available 0 ohmy.gif use 100%
Help please
