Gmail App gone

Ok i figure ill throw this out there maybe some has a fix..
I was on 4.2.8 and everything was 200% when 4.2.8.1 was released i used CM Updater(latest) to update and i come to find that the gmail icon was gone fully gone wiped out.. i flip up the tray and it was gone from there too...so i did a wipe the flash 1.6adp then flashed cyanmod 4.2.8.1 and same issue the gmail icon was gone..
so i did a full wipe of everything from a-z(sarcasm) but did wipe every thing that could be wipe then re flash 1.6 then cyanmod over agian still the same issue.. so i unrooted and gmail app was back so then i rooted and update using recovery 1.4 cyan and gmail was there but i get acor forclose and blah blah...
so i wiped and did it again and still same issue so i used amon ra 1.5.2 recovery image wiped a-z again then flash 1.6 and cyan 4.2.8.1 and gmail was gone once again so i left it as is
and did partations sd
from there acore for close stop and was able to use market agian
then i downloaded astro manager and went thru the 1.6adp ota and i found gmail and installed! success it worked(odd) i install gmail app from astro file manager today
backdraw of this is thatgs this is install on my sd with partation so when i go to applications i have the option to uninstall gmail(shouldnt be a option)
so my question is.. anyone have a good idea whats happening or a fix to reflash with gmail there with out installing it to sd card..
or a way to push the gmail app to the phone from the sdcard..?
i kno that was long to read.. but just wanted to get all the steps i did so question or response will come say wipe and reflash when that proccess was done about 12 times(started at 8am and didnt finish{gave up} around 10)

Found out it is my sd card its partation.. and each time i update it misses up the update.. i used a clean new sdcard (1g) and wiped 2x and then flash the 1.6adp then the new cMod and i got my gmail icon back(original) so this can be closed now.. thanks

application setup wizard crash on boot after N1 logo

Full wipe again this time I installed 5.0.8 with google apps and it worked fine. 6rc was working until I installed the google apps
I have done a full wipe b4 every flash. Im going to try to install 6rc on top of 5.0.8 without a wipe and see how that goes

ok full wipe again. flash 5.0.8, then G-apps, then 6rc
that gets me 6rc but no google apps
reboot and flash Gapps and get stuck in boot loop again
Thanks for any help. and if this is in the wrong section mods feel free to move this.

[Q] Rom Manager Will Not Run

I deleted my Rom Manager in an attempt to refresh and install the pro version. I did this by using the force uninstall from TB, which actually did not remove it, but then I did remove it normaly via the TB remove app feature (not force uninstal). Now when I try install the rom, it will not load. I do not get any errors when I try to install it. It is just is not there / cant be seen by any app or in a directory. Any suggestions on how to fix this??? Are there any alternative apps???
Just fyi - I am also unable to install the latest CM7 version. It gets to the CM7 boot screen, but hangs on it ofr more than an hour with no progress. Just fro clarification, I have since reloaded the latest CM6 version, to see if Rom Manager would install, but it still wouldn't.
Current phone is a Sprint Hero, running the latest CM6 Version.

when you reloaded CM6, did you restore a backup or did you wipe everything and reload a fresh image?
I had a problem using ROM Mgr when I tried to flash the recovery. Ended up it wouldn't boot into recovery and after that it wouldn't flash the recovery anymore. I was able to flash the alternate ra recovery, wipe factory data/cache & davlik cache, reload clean CM6.1 with latest gapps. Still the ROM Mgr was goofy. I used the fix permissions tool in ROM Mgr and it finally allowed me to flash the CWM recovery (2.5.0.7) successfully and reboot into recovery mode. Maybe the fix permissions or making sure everything (besides your SD card) is wiped would help? Or, try using the ra recovery to load your CM7 image (not sure if that is supported).

You need to do a full wipe of absolutely everything and then update your recovery image. Do a fresh download(try from a mirror) of the latest CM7 version. Make sure that everything is fully wiped and you wipe your system, cache, data and davlik-cache. Do the wipe TWICE.
Once you are flashing CM7, make sure you only flash the rom first and then boot up and see if it goes through.

Thanks for the info, Waffle_.. So to just clarify... I need to:
1. wipe everything twice
2. get a fresh download of cm7
3. then install cm7
What do you mean by "Once you are flashing CM7, make sure you only flash the rom first" -- Like make sure it boots up before installing anything else????
Thanks!

Yes.
Meaning, when you flash the rom, don't flash gapps or anything else. Flash the rom only, then reboot and make sure it runs. And then you can go back and flash gapps, etc.

[Q] TeamHeroC2.3.7 No market, some gapps

My current ROM is jaybob's CM6.2 w/ firerat and using Darchstar's RA recovery 1.7. heroc is s-on.
Removed firerats and tried flashing TeamHeroC-2.3.7-22OCT.zip plus several gapps but cannot get Market to show up in the app drawer. Car home, talk and books sometimes show up. They all flash ok but market does not show up in the app drawer. I've tried to the following gapps each time wiping cache, dalvik+factory reset:
From CM7
gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
gapps-gb-20110325-signed.zip
gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
From OMFGB thread
lithid-gapps-0504-signed.zip
GAPPS.zip
From Hero deck thread
gapps-hero-20110522.zip
I would post in the android dev section but cannot since my post count is < 10. I've gotten by in the past by searching and reading threads but this issue I can't resolve. Any help is much appreciated!

Hi
U may have to either update ur recovery or try ROM manager recovery, then factory reset, wipe all, then under under recovery format everything except the SD card stuff under mounts abd storage...then
reflash ROM by itself. While there sync ur account, then flash the gapps. The hero deck gapps with voicemail worked for me.
I hope it works.

Agreed, it sounds like a recovery issue. I'd flash a CWM recovery and see if that fixes things.

In order to get rid of Firerat's you have to either flash a new recovery and then format/wipe boot, system, data, and cache (you can use Rom Manager or just find one to flash from recovery) or you need to use the Firerat's removal tool and then do all of the format/wiping in order to really get rid of firerat's. Any of those gapps should work though as I believe they are all universal GB gapps. I use Jaybob's with some 6/13 gapps.

thanks guys! resolved it by flashing cwm2.5.0.7 and wiping everything.

Various problems, including Recovery, Market and mobile shut off

Hi
I'm experiencing these issues during last days:
-Market doesn't download or actualize nothing (Error 492)
-Phone shuts off randomly
-I cannot load CWM recovery
These are my phone specifications:
-V20o Official Leaked Rom
-Horsepower extreme 24BPP RC11 Kernel
-Hp v20o tweaks
-Fast Dormancy Logging fix
-Scrolling Cache Disabler for smoother scrolling
-CWM Touch Custom Recovery installed flashing a zip encountered on xda
I'm experiencing these problems after I installed CM9 beta-rom (and the proper google apps) and then I went back to the V20o doing three wipes and restoring a previous Nandroid Backup
Any suggestion?
Thanks

The problem is I think touch recovery. It contains a bug when your wiping cache. The problem is that after wiping it, it won't rebuild, so this will crash your market and may also cause the other problems.
What you could do is change your recovery.

Thank you very much
So I should not wipe cache when i run a Nandroid restore?
I ask you this 'cause when, after installing CM9 (doing three wipes procedure), i rebooted into recovery to restore Nandroid backup and it seemed to work well. I began to experience problems when I loaded Rom after it.
Anyway is there any chance to reinstall old version CWM without reinstalling the Rom?

The problem occurs after every cache wipe, because it should rebuild after every wipe and that's the problem.
The easiest way to reinstall a CWM version is using ROM Manager and restore to CWM version 5.0.2.0. I know it's kinda old, but it'll do good enough.
EDIT: If you for some reason really don't like CWM 5.0.2.0, look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1478995
You can find a flashable zip somewhere of CWM 5.0.2.7

Touch Recovery i had was flashed from that .zip file you're telling me! Anyway i tried to install old CWM version in Rom Manager but it didn't resolve the problem.
I will manage to reinstall everything.
