Market is force closing on install - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

broken package installer

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

Android Market disappears after ext wipe?

Okay, this is a little odd -
I found myself getting stuck in bootloops on my G1, after updating to Cyanogen 4.2.10, and so I decided to go into recovery (Amon Ra) and wipe the ext partition.
Upon booting my phone back up again, everything worked great, very smooth. I pushed my (backed-up) apps back to the phone, and all was well...
Until I realized that the Market app was oddly missing. Other Google apps are there - Gmail, messaging, etc. But not the market.
In my hurry to fix my problem I neglected to make a full backup, and so, uhh, I'm sorta borked.
Any way I can get back the market? I know it's Google's secret little code, but is there any way someone can surreptitiously direct me towards an apk?
I'd be much obliged.

You could find the Vending.apk in any of the full build's that don't use the legal work around like Cyanogen
I'd just download Dwang's or WG's build, unzip and you could find it in it's respective place
I have pretty much the same problem...
a few days ago my phone started spazzing after installing Cyanogen's 4.2.11 and there was nothing i could do except formatting my sd card and a factory reset... eventually, i got my phone back to work, but it only came with all of the default apps except for the Android Market.
So then i tried to install the HTC recovery image along with cyanogen 4.2.11.1 to see if that would fix my problem, but my market app is STILL missing. I really need my market app back -____- even though cyanogen's rom comes with slideme mobentoo marketplace, the app force closes whenever i try to open it.
can anyone help?
^ I would just start all over. Cyan is working on experimental now so you likely have the final stable build, for the time being anyway.
wipe, use AmonRAs recovery to partition your SD and get you to EXT4.
Flash HTC, immediately after flash cyan... reboot and you should have googles apps back (including market).
Download your apps and then go back to recovery and make a nandroid+Ext backup for any future issues.
I just startwed from scratch and am glad I did. My G1 seems a lot faster afterwards.
OR, do ^^ if you are capable.
vending was stored on the /system/sd/app (ext partition app folder), push it to /system/app so it won't get erased when you wipe ext.
The root of the problem is:
the market is a system app so it's in /system/app
however there is a new update for the market so when you open it and it connects to Google servers it updates the market app.
since most roms (like cyanogens) have app2sd setup ... when the android market updates itself, it installs on the ext partition. /system/sd (symb link)
So if you wipe your ext you also wipe the market but no other system apps because they reside on system memory.
maybe the new market needs to be included in these roms ... or make an exception of some sort. However ... that's probably what happened in your case. Hopefully you can understand that.
good day!

Market Not Working after Revert from FroYo

I flashed on Paul's FroYo the other day and decided I didn't want the headache of app instability until later. But now after nandroid restoring my 5.0.6 backup, I can no longer download anything from the market. I read posts where people said to clear data from apps such as download manager, google apps, etc but when i go to my manage applications in settings I cannot see these apps, my guess is theyre hidden in CM. Any suggestions?
have you gone to settings (when in manage applications) and changed the filter to all apps?
I've got the same issue.
Decided to wipe, install Cyan 5.0.6 then revert to my 5.0.6. Nandroid.
Everything is fine until I try to download TI Backup from the market.
Anything I try and download just hangs at 'downloading'....
I've wiped caches, cleared data, replaced my XML file....etc
Grrrrrrr, why does nothing work properly.
i went back to 5.0.6 to do what you said, every time ive gone back with my nandroid back up its been fine, but this time the market app is corrupt for some reason. the vending.apk is in /system/app but the market icon isnt in the launcher and the shortcut on my home screen says app not installed when i use it. doing a factory reset works but i want that to be a last resort as i would like to preserve my settings/messages. ive tried replacing the vending.apk with different ones but it still won't install. any ideas?
I followed the steps here and it fixed the issue for me. forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6575904

[Q] Market, download unsuccessful

Hi,
I'm starting playing with my Nook and have some problem with Market. Each time i try downloading an application it says "Download unsessfull".
I had some problems yesterday trying to use the CWR to make backup, so it can be related..
I don't know what can be related to this so i try to remember all things i done:
- A Nook, unboxed then updated to 1.1
- Rooted using Autonooter 3.0
- At this point Market was working, ie: i downloaded go launcher ex.
- I installed Rom manager and apply cwr (choosed Nook (new), i think it was the mistake)
- rebooted to recovery, i wanted to save the system before trying to apply kernel patch (OC and better touch responsiveness)
- failed to backup the system (it say's can't mount /system)
- So i tried to reboot, it reboot back to recovery each time.
- Panic mode (i'm not linux, recovery or other underground android fluent
- I think a tried the wrong buttons : clear dalvik, i think i clicked "wipe cache partition". Don't think i tried other button, not sure..
- Light back to brain and started searching real solutions
- Wana try the 8 fail solutions, but failed to do that (i don't want to lose against nook
- I installed zip from card: clorkwork-removal
- Nook back to laucher
- At this point i installed some app from elsewhere than Market, i played a little with spare parts i think. When a tried to install from market it didn't work.
- Try to clear market app cache, doesn't change anything.
Sorry if it was a long read, but i think that maximum informations can help you to help me
Oh, Youtube don't lauch anymore too (but that was before the cwr misadventure)
Thank you,
David
ps: sorry about my english
Try using titanium backup to clear data for google framework and market. Also make sure your wireless isn't blocking any traffic. This happens to me on my work network sometimes.
if i don't have titanium (no market at all..) the clear data from google framework is similar to that (found in another thread)?
settings->applications->manage->all
finf google services framework and clear the data then force quit

i give it a try.
is it the "google apps" one in applications list?
So it is not the google apps.. i try to update the market to 2.2.6. Search works but download doesnt start at all..
anybody has can hint me about this google framework..
Double post..
I was in the same situation- I also have an NC, 1.1.0, autonootered 3.0.0 and I installed ROM Manager (v3.0.1.0) from the market and used it to install CWM 3.0.0.6 by choosing "Nook Color" rather than "Nook Color (old)" at Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. I then did the reboot before rebooting into recovery and then wiped the cache and tried to wipe the Davlik cache, but every time I chose that it just went back to the same menu without doing anything. I then flashed Dalingrin's OC kernel and it seemed to work fine- SetCPU allowed me to OC up to 1100. BUT I lost access to the Market- everything I tried to install came back "Download Unsuccessful".
I finally, after much reading, removing CWM and reinstalling it 2 or 3 times etc. tried choosing "Nook Color (old)". This installed CWM 3.0.0.5 which DID let me wipe the Davlik cache and then when I installed the OC kernel it worked and I could download from the Market again.
So I would get yourself back to just a rooted nook (using clockwork removal if necessary). Then use ROM Manager to flash the ClockworkMod Recovery, but make sure to choose "Nook Color (old)". Then make sure to reboot (power off and back on you NC) and go to ROM Manager and reboot into recovery. Once there wipe the cache then go to "Advanced" and wipe the Davlik cache (I think this is the crucial part). After this I went ahead and flashed the OC kernel, but you could just reboot and hopefully you'll have access to the Market again like I did.
Good luck!

This method does still does not allow access to all the apps, only more.
Is there a chance that the google framework is missing?
I can see this framework on my phone, not on my nook.. What can i do please?
first thing tonight: i will check if GoogleServicesFramework.apk exists in system/app
Back, tonight was movie night with my girlfirend.. So i didn't played with my nook..
This morning i used rootexplorer to check if there was a GoogleServicesFramework.apk in system/app. It was not.
I tried to disable More locale app (it used to translate the devices texts in french) hope that "google framework" was baddly translated in app list..
Can someone confirm that the "google framework" i'm looking is the "GoogleServicesFramework.apk", and where is it on the nook? If missing, can i just put it with root explorer? Can the "clockwork removal" have beeing a cause on it's vanish?
Next time i have time i will try the Crispian Solution too..
Look for googleframework services in titanium backup. Select it and a little window pops up with options to uninstall and such. There is a button on the right that says wipe data. You can do the same for the Market.
As i said, googleframework service is not in titanium backup list..
I will try the CWR method asap.
grmph, tried to wipe dalvik and partition cache using working recovery.
Didn't work ..
i mean market does not work better..
Gtalk isn't working anymore too..
What if the framework service isnt listed in Manage Applications (all). This is on a rooted nook running stock 1.1.
are you telling that's normal on stock rooted nook 1.1

that's not what I am saying. I am saying I cannot install from the market and I don't even see the google framework listed under manage applications with the all filter selected
oh sorry, so you have the same problem ..
As i live in france i don't care about B&N app and shops i consider upgradding to froyo on emmc.. It will resolve my problem i think?
Possible solution
Same issue here. Color Nook v.1.1 rooted with Autonooter 3.0.0.
Market was working fine, then stopped. Returned to stock, then rerooted. Market worked for 10 apps, then stopped again. Clearing all cache did not fix. No sign of Google Services Framework in app list.
However, I found Download Manager and DownloadAdmin in the apps list and cleared the data for those (cache had already been cleared -- I used Gemini App Mgr for one-button clear-all-cache). Market is now working again.

[CM7][Fix]Had problems with CM7, here's what they were and how to fix it

I did an extensive search on this website and on Google for this subject, and never found a precise response. I eventually figured it out patching together experiences from multiple sources, but I'm sure I'm not the only one, so here is what happened and how I fixed it.
I have a Nook Color that came with the 1.2 software version. I installed CM7 following the guide on this site. I used a variety of nightly releases including 177. I reset and re-installed several versions always with the same result. CM7 would install, but with these problems:
1. On startup, I would receive the error: "android.process.media stopped unexpectedly" and "process.com.android.setting stopped unexpectedly".
2. The market would allow me to download, but the download status would just hang at 0%.
3. The Kindle app would not allow downloading with the error of "your device is not compatible"
4. CM settings cause the same errors as in point #1
The fix is simple. Clear the data and cache in various applications in settings - applications - manage applications and select all applications with the buttons at the top of the screen. You want to clear the info in certificate installer, download manager, google services framework, market, market apps installer, package installer.
I don't know why this works, but it does. I don't know if one needs to clear all of the apps that I did, but it is what worked.
Lastly, the CM settings still crash. I haven't found an answer to that yet.
Good luck!

I had the first issue's problem. I used ROM Manager to reinstall CM7, wiping all caches. It fixed the problem. Obviously it's not ideal, so thanks for posting. I'll keep it in mind if I run into the problem.
I also had force closes on Facebook and Words With Friends. I thought they were related to the original issues, but the force closes came back. Any ideas?
EW2X4 you don't say but if you are running of SD card then many cards give force closes.
Assume you aren't as you talk about using ROM manager but others with Force closes reading might be on SD so will post this
If SD card read some of the threads which recommend Sandisk class 4 or lower cards

Use CWR version 3.2.0.1 when creating the bootable image on the card. Then wipe system, data, cache and Davlik before installing. You miss one of them and you are going to get FCs. It can be found here: http://www.multiupload.com/0DLC9QATOW
