Market broken fcs - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I keep getting force closes in my market, whenever something is about to install, it finishes downloading, then FCs, so i can not update or install anything.
It looks like this happened after i themed with glass widgets. I have tried reflashing Gapps, it didnt work, i just want to know if there is a solution before i flash CM5.0.6 again
some details:
cm5.0.6
Latest intersectraven AVS
helix launcher 2
glass widget theme.
transparent notification bar.

hmm, so i flashed cm 5.0.6 again with gapps (no wipe)
still no luck

go in to settings -> app settings -> market -> uninstall updates
sorted my FC's out

Your getting the com.android.vendor.apk error im guessing.
The Morph you installed screwed up the vendor file.
Bad news is I have only seen this issue fixed with a wipe and reflash.

That's the one, seems to happen with a combo of morphs. Luckily i always nandroid

A few of the morphs seem to have this issue, they theme a few apk's that can't be reverted with a simple reload with no wipe.

This fix worked for me . Thanks for the help man. I am going to begin looking into the ins and outs of Android. These things are interesting. I wonder what uninstalling updates did on a system level to help out...

Metamorph breaking the Market?

It seems after using Metamorph update 1.8 to apply some mods, the Market breaks. The Market will browse to and download apps without any problem, but as soon as it starts to install the downloaded app, it force closes. Anyone else have this issue? I've seen several people post about this yesterday, suspecting Metamorph was the culprit, and now I've found this to be true. Any fix for this?

No. Download tab here, not T-Mobile. Thanks though.
If its a animation, then reflash the rom to remove them.

Huh? No, it's not an animation, and removing the themes and even Metamorph itself didn't fix the Market. Reflashing the ROM did nothing. Had to wipe. Was able to reproduce.

What I think is happening is that with the new update, the market is looking for keys that do not exist after the market is metamorphed. It is an easy fix without wiping though, just press menu --> settings --> applications --> manage applications --> market --> uninstall updates
Then go back to the market and enjoy your downloads.
can anyone confirm that uninstalling udates in the market works? I quit using MM because of this
Can't confirm. Ditched Metamorph for the time being.
Yes if you unistall the market update if will work

Market has totally lost it

Starting around the Google Maps update yesterday, any app I download from the Market downloads over and over. This is on the latest CM (5.0.6). Does the same after a full wipe. Tried the MCR Desire ROM, and it can't even see paid apps now. What's going on?

uninstall updates to the market under manage applications... this has worked for me in the past...
Nope, not doing it. Now I can't see paid apps, and they still don't download right.

i don't know if you are looking in the right spot....where you would uninstall the updates is not in the market itself. it is in settings...applications...manage applications. then scroll down to market, select and uninstall updates
That's exactly what I did.

First thing I tried. No luck. The issue persists with a full wipe and reinstall of CM.
same here this is ridiculous!
same here, had this first after i tried to metamorph the framework on cm 5.0.7-t2, then right after a full wipe and reflash of cm and gapps.
now i'm back to a nandroid from may 10th and on 5.0.7-t2 and the market (v1713) works.

new market force closing?

The new market keep force closing...can't even get it to open. I tried clearing data and cache and that didn't help. Uninstalled updates and downloaded an early version of the market and that one tries to open but FC's too. Running Miui 1.8.5. Any ideas on how to fix this. Annoying.
Did you ever get this going? I am having the same issue, tried all I can think of.
I had this problem too one one nook (have access to 2, both on miui). Only solution so far was rolling back using titanium and the renaming market updater with .bak to disable it. If i didn't market would update and fc again.
Strange thing is - the other nook is still fine and is on same market release as the other was when it was force closing.
Hoping for a better solution.
I dont like the new market, its design sucks and it lags terribly..
The solution is easy. Use Titanium Backup to remove the otherwise impossible to remove Market Updater application.
Then go into your System > Applications menu and choose to uninstall updates for Market.
This way you can use the old, properly working market, without worrying bout the OS to redownload the new one.
I hope I was able to help you.

[SOLVED] Problems with Google Play 3.5.15

So, recently I noticed that my Market (or Google Play, whatever you want to call it...) got updated to version 3.5.15. Since then, I'm not able to download some free apps like the newest Angry Birds (space) for example. It keeps saying that there is some kind of purchasing problem even though the app is free? This also happens with a few other apps...
The strangest thing is that I can download some other apps like Coin Dozer with the newest version, and I can't even update every app. I mean, I can update some of them, but I can't update Superuser for some reason...
I'm using the latest Temasek's KANG with the latest kernel from vadonka. (HOC LITE OTF 48MB). And I was wondering if this problem is related to the market version.
EDIT: So, I figured that I can only download apps from the Play Store I previously downloaded before. With other words, apps I once installed but then removed. (like Coin Dozer).
Thx for taking your time!
UPDATE 1:
So, after messing around a bit I finally managed to solve this problem. First I deleted all the updates and installed the market apk 3.4.4. Afterwards I made sure that the apk wouldn't update itself again with the help from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431341
Now I got a functional Market again. It's not the latest, but at least it's working normally again. I know it didn't really solve the problem with Market 3.5.15, which is a pity because I kinda liked the new updates. But, Hey, you win something and you lose something.
UPDATE 2:
Finally, after the help from UnityCake (Thanks bro! ) , I managed to solve this problem and now I've got Market 3.5.15 working again! .
Thanks you guys for your help!
I really appreciated it!
I have the same configuration and all works fine. Try to reinstall the rom
or you could try clearing your market cache if you haven't already, failing that boot into recovery and wipe cache & dalvik there. or.. uninstall the market updates, and let it update again later =)

Do you also have Play Store 3.5.15? And it works fine on your phone?

Hmmm... I already tried wiping cache and fixing the permissions. I'm pretty sure the problem is related to this specific version because previous versions were working fine for me. But I will try it, thanks for the tips!
EDIT: I tried wiping the cache of the market application and the problem still persists. Also, I deleted the updates and let the Market app update itself again to 3.5.15 and the problem still isn't gone. I'm pretty sure the problem is related to this Play Store version.
I had a big bug with latest version a couple of days ago, I couldn't instal anything and all installed apps vanished from market menu.
I erased my Google account from the phone and set it again and all was ok then.
Yes it's the same version

So I suppose you need to erase your Google account with the 'accounts & synchronization' option in settings. However when I try to do that, it says I only can delete my account by doing a factory reset in the 'Privacy' option. My question is, isn't there an easier way to delete my Google account, without losing all my data?
Maybe try to re-install/flash Google Play Store. We have the same ROM and KERNEL, but, I don't have any problem with the latest Market. Hope it helps.

Hmmm.... Okay, then I will factory reset my phone and reflash everything and see if that works... I can always restore my apps with Titanium Backup, so it's not a real big problem anyways.
UPDATE: So after a factory reset and a total reflash, Play Store 3.5.15 still doesn't work . It asked for permission when I opened the app for the first time and then it worked for a short time. Afterwards it asked again for the same permission and I accepted again and now I have the same problem as before. I'm clueless right now, any idea guys?
weird.. if you did a factory reset and reflashed it, the issue must be fixed. maybe its a rom issue or kernel?

Unlikely, I mean, you've got the same combination as me, like many others and it works fine on your phone and on the phones of everyone else. I really don't know what the problem is . Anyway I managed to fix this problem (sort of) so I got a decent market again .

Not completely, I reverted back to market 3.4.4 and made sure it wouldn't update itself anymore. So, I didn't solve the problem with Market 3.5.15, but I got at least a functional Market again.

I had this same issue. The quickest way to fix Market 3.5.15 is to:
1. Erase data for google play and Google Services Provider
2. Enter Recovery --> Advanced --> Fix Permissions
So now I can download apps on 3.5.15 without downgrading

[Q] P970 with Marvel v11 ROM becomes slow

AS the title says, phone has become really slow. Previously had no problems.
I did change the CPU settings in ROM management toolbox which seems to me to be the culprit, i changed it back but the phone is still really slow at loading app icons on homescreen and in app drawer.
I have reset permissions, scanned for viruses, cleared cache, etc. But still slow.
Anyone an idea what to do besides boot into recovery and resinstall Marvel? or is that really the best way????
Cheers in advance.

Did you want to try the Marvel 12 Beta?
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390362690511177071
Install, do a factory reset, set the governor, and see if it does the trick.
I recommend installing the Xperia Launcher 2.05b. Hopefully Tantrums will be including this in v12 Final:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2103403
Your issue may also be related to a specific app you've installed. I ran into issues with a particular app after an automatic upgrade, and it took me a while to figure out the culprit. I contacted the developer and he was quick to fix the issue, but this stuff does happen. Many times you can figure out what's going on by reading the "1-star" reviews for your installed apps on the Play Store. I would message the developer if you find something.
Cheers.
I was thinking of installing v12, but thought id wait until it was officially released.
I guess i will uninstall all apps, to see if it makes a difference, then if not i guess i will reinstall v11 for now.
Actually, thats just too slow, i will ust reinstall v11 ROM.
Thanks.

If you are on Marvel11 and want to reinstall Marvel11 cause you want to change anything in the settings or just cause there did anything go wrong just reboot to recovery and start the Aroma install package of Marvel11 without any whippe at all, that's all, should fix everything.

Yea thats what i did. All was ok.
but then i started to clean up files on my phone. I think i deleted some files i should not have and now i have a phone that i cant enter into recovery mode. It just boots up and shows the coloured X from the X-peria bootloader (for some reason cos i didnt install it) asks for SIM unlock, which i do, but it only shows a handful of apps, standard ones i imagine, but no fast rebbot, or ROM toolbox, or CWM app. So then how do i now enter recovery??????
AHHHHHHHH!!!!! LOL
Ah i found a possible way out of this conundrum i found myself in i think
i had access to play store, so as i couldnt see ROM toolbox in apps, i redownloaded it so i could enter recovery mode.
So that i have done, now i just need to see what i have when the phone has rebooted, but i think that will have worked.
I think i must have deleted the data files or something when cleaning up the phone :/
Yea. looks like i have to reinstall all apps. No biggy then. Phew!!
Just a little reminder: If you use Windows 'adb reboot recovery' will do the trick too.

Yea, im on mac, so ncd.
OK so now my process.com android.mms keeps closing on me, effectively i have no MMS.
Anyone a solution?
I have reset Darvik Cache and normal cache. Fixed permissions. Uninstalled the app through ROM toolbox, then reinstalled the ROM. Still no joy,MMS just will not run.
Ideas?
Or should i just install Marvel v12?

A fresh install with v12 Beta will take less time than you've already spent. Just have your additional apps (outside the Play Store) in a folder on the SD card.

Should i preform a factory reset as well? I ask because i am on Mac, so performing any procedures where i need to hook up the phone to a computer, although not impossible, is a bit of a task. Will installing Marvel v12 actually fix the issue in itself?????
I have actually installed Go SMS Pro and Handcent, which work in terms of being able to retrieve MMS, but it hasnt done anything to fix the stock/Optimus G MMS app.
Hehe, I should install Marvel 12 i know, I am just holding back a bit.

I do a full factory reset after any ROM install.
I use Go SMS too. I liked Pansi soooo much, but the last update continually crashes on my Marvel ICS.
Remind me please, if the full factory reset means i will need a PC to fix anything, or if i can perform a full factory reset and install either Marvel v11 or v12 without needing a computer?

You install the ROM, then you do the factory reset.
The factory reset returns things to a raw ROM state, getting rid of anything you've added since installing the ROM. So yes, it will wipe anything you download from the Play Store. I do it immediately after installing the ROM.
Put Marvel 12 Beta on the SD card (root directory), and any non-Play Store items you'd like to install in a folder on the card.
