2.2 music/gallery app - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why is it that none of the 2.2 roms see any of my music stored on the sdcard?
As for the gallery app, it only sees two folders of pictures on my sdcard, and I have 4 folders. I also cannot select custom ringtones for phone,mail,txt nothing.
Also, every 2.2 rom I install, it ALWAYS lags after about 5 minutes of first boot throws a bunch of force closes on any and every app I have open, and then finally soft reboots. After that then I never have problems with the lag until I reboot. What would cause this? I'm running the Froyo Radio, I wipe data/cache/dalvik-cache every time I try to flash a 2.2 rom. Oddly enough, any 2.1 eclair works fine...
I managed to capture a picture of the logcat right before it rebooted on 2.2

Never had any of these problems on any 2.2 rom

Could it be the SDcard then? or something with my phone?

bump for hoping to run 2.2 with no errors

For the lag on initial boot it may just be Google restoring your apps...this really slows things down until its finished. If you want to turn it off its under Privacy-Backup Settings, I believe.
As for the gallery/music probs Im not too sure..could be the card, reformat??

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!

Apps crashing after new CyanogenMod 5.0.5.2

After upgrading to 5.0.5.2, WaveSecure crashes on startup and the Market crashes when I try to download something with "The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I've tried re-installing 5.0.5.2, but it's still not working.
Did you wipe? Or maybe fix uid mismatches (or whatever it is called) in recovery?
I'm having the same issue with Power Manager when it runs on startup. Just after inserting the pin code I get an alert to force close it. It kinda sucks actually...
Cherry Rplayer (which was the only radio app I could find a liked) crashes immediately when I launch it and 'A Online Radio' crashes when I first start my phone.
60 people have viewed my post and only got like one or two replies. No one will tell me are they using the latest cynogen mod and the same thing happens to them or not? Is there anything that can be done? Is this normal? Will those apps ever work if I keep the cynogen mod?
oh and spent the whole day trying to get my iTunes to the music player. Thought it was going to be fairly easy what with programs like doubleTwist - I looked into it before I got the phone - well holy crap what a nightmare!! Besides 19 of my songs being DRM protected, doubleTwist doesnt even work that great! Even with help from programs like Mp3tag songs are still not right with a few songs showing random cover art from other songs and a whole bunch of the songs saying 'unknown artist' even though the mp3 files are clearly tagged with the right song info!!!!!!!

I had to wipe in order to successfully instal the ROM. As for uid mismatches (or whatever it is called)- is that an option in recovery? What is that for what does that do? Will I have to reflash the ROM if I use it or will I loose in any data?
Wish everyone could be a little more informative to the newbies...
I've searched but cant find any info about apps force-closing, why that happens, or what can be done to correct the problem...
I am having the exact same problem with the Market FCs every time I try to install an app. I am currently troubleshooting the issue and I'm running CM 5.0.5.
So far I've..
re-flashed Google Apps add-on -> no luck
wiped Dalvik-cache -> no luck
factory/data reset then restore -> no luck
UPDATE: fix apk uid-mismatches cleared up the problem. Thanks jsapp! Boot into recovery (I'm using Amon v1.7), select Other and you should see the option.
Thanks jsapp and travon802!!! fix apk uid-mismatches now I have streaming radio again!!

For others who've experienced this, are you using MyBackup to backup/restore apps?
Only had four or five Apps but yeah I used my backup. I think it didn't backup a few of them and had to redownload from the market...
The reason I ask is because I can reproduce this issue of the Market FC'ing by restoring any app using MyBackup with the root option turned on.

App installation always hanging...bad sdcard?

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.

[Q] Anyone else experiencing application installation issues using custom kernels?

Whenever I flash my phone with a custom kernel, be it YAOK; SpeedMod; Voodoo; Z4Mod etc. I *always* run into the same problem within the space of a few reboots / few hours of use (sometimes with only 2 reboots)
Essentially, the bug is that newly installed applications will NOT show up in TWLauncher. They're installed and work, but they have no icon. If I FC TWLauncher, kill it's data, or reboot, their icons show up. It's as though TWLauncher "can't be bothered" to re-scan installed apps when a new one gets added. (this seems to happen more with over 8 pages of apps; although there will be some spaces on page 2, 3 etc.)
This behaviour has previously been noted in both the modded versions of TWLauncher available on this site. I haven't tried this with ADW or LauncherPro as I don't like them as much.
I've now gone back to a completely stock kernel and merely rooted it (no lagfix) - so I'm waiting to see if this behaviour returns.
The ONLY thing I think may have possibly been causing this is either the Spare Parts application, or Samsung's new email / IM application. I've not restored those on this particular reset to see what happens.
I've tried everything I can think of to narrow down what's causing this, including NOT restoring any data from backups and instead downloading all my apps individually (there's currently 61 apps installed on my phone, in addition to the bundled ones)
............
Now, before you all ask / comment:
Each and Every time this happens, I have been reformatting both the internal AND external SD cards; then doing a complete flash in Odin, using the 502 PIT file. Firmware is stock XWJPO (with JPP modem).
Is no one else suffering from this at all?

Duplicated images thumbnails...

This has been happening for awhile and I know it happens to others. I believe it only happens when my phone is rooted (always happened if I kept my sdcard in while rooting).
Ive running offical froyo 2.2 rooted. Basically all my photos and videos (external sd) thumbnails become duplicated or even more. Theres still only 1 real image but gallery will display x3x4x5 of the same thumbnail. Does anyone know a permanent fix to this? Only way I've been able to resolve it is by deleting the thumbnail folders via my pc.
go to
settings
applications
manage applications, then touch "All" at the top of page.
scroll to Media storage and touch it
clear data and force close (clear cache may help too but I never had to do cache for this fix to work)
then reboot.
It should solve the problem.
or install SGS TOOLS from the market and apply the script ^clear_thumb_db.txt^
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Not work for me
Ressurection remix 2.1 on SGS2,when setup mms configuration and send mms,images duplicate in gallery ,cear data ,force close and reboot but problem not solved.
Any other solution?
PS. sorry for my bad english and thanks for answer
