N1 crashes durin any app installation - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I have a serious problem.
I used to have CM6 stable until I noticed some heavy download traffic of about 4mb on any startup/reboot and someone told me it might be caused by some kind of OTA update, and that I should use the current nightly.
After flashing the nightly my phone crashes every time I want to install an app from the market. The download works fine and when it comes to "installation" is reboots.
I tried everything
flashing the CM6 stable
flashing the google apps
wiping partition cache
wiping davlink ache
deleting market data
full wipe/factory reset
nothing works, so basicly what I have now is an oversized state of the art nokia 3210... Can someone please help?

Market downloading problems

I have had this issue before and it seemed to dissapear itself after flashing rom update, at the time Cyanogen roms, I have used many different roms since and recently went from superD1.93 to 1.10.2 and market problem was fine, I switched back to 1.93 and issue started again.
when I click to update app or download new app it lags just before it downloads, about 10-15 seconds then once download is complete it pops up in status bar as installed but is still showing as installing on market app.
I do a full wipe before each ROM flash clearing out my ext partition as well, I dont think it is a ROM issue as I have used flashed various other roms the problem is still there...currently on HTC clays fasttest 3.1.
I have tried clearing market cache and data with out any luck.

[Q] Market FC after nandroid restore

I took a nandroid backup of my CM6.1.2 ROM before trying out the CM7 nightly. I tinkered for about an hour and then decided to go back. I restored the nandroid backup and everything seems to be fine, except I'm getting the Market force-closing on me repeatedly. I've tried clearing Market data/cache and that doesn't seem to help.
Any ideas on why it might now be crashing, and how to get it back to functional again?
EDIT: Just following up, I tried booting back into Clockwork Recovery and doing an advanced nandroid restore, selecting the same backup, but data only. Everything was fine after the reboot. Maybe Clockwork just did a bad restore the first time round?

What version of the Marketplace are you running? I had this problem last week and was using 2.2.7... but it seemed that removing it and installing 1.82 fixed the fc's. I was getting a permissions error in logcat, tried a bunch of stuff including editing packages.xml, everything short of a full wipe, and I couldn't get anything. In the end, the only thing that fixed it was a full wipe and a reinstall of the rom.
I haven't tried with 2.2.10 or 2.2.11, but that might work too. Maybe someone else ran into this and they have some better steps...?
Edit: Just saw your edit... I'll have to try that out if there's a next time because that's one thing I didn't try, I only tried full restores.
I have the same problem with 2.2.7 on MCRv9. I'd been on Oxygen rc6, but the other day noticed that at some point I'd lost a few games and all of their backups. Luckily I have a nandroid backup of the lot on MCRv9 so I restored it and found that the games (but not their data) were missing there too. Bizarre, but I figured I could either grab the data from /data/data or reinstall from the Market and then back them up properly with Titanium.
No luck! I'm having this exact issue. I can stop the FCs with a Market data wipe, but all downloads then hang, and then FCs start again. I can fix the download problem with the MCR Market script, but then the download always fails at the end and the FCs start again.
Rather than re-restoring the data I'm going to try a different Market version. I installed 2.2.7 manually so it may be my own fault.
Had the exact same problem. I resolved it by flashing the older version of Gapps (20101114) and then flashed Pendo blue market. The blue colour looks better than the stock green, imo.

Nandroid Restore Now No Gapps

I am running Gigglebread 7.0.2 on my T-Mobile N1. I am getting ready to go to Italy for a few weeks and wanted to see what would happen to my phone with another carrier's SIM. So, I inserted the AT&T SIM from my work blackberry and had some issues, but got it working after the APN was sorted out.
When I swapped the T-Mobile SIM back, all of my Google accounts had forgotten their credentials. I rebooted once just to see and no change. So, I thought, easy, restore nandroid from earlier in the day. The restore went fine, no errors, no wipe of cache or dalvik only now I appear to have no gapps (no market, unable to add google accounts, shortcuts on desktop don't work). Again, no problem. I've seen this before so I wiped cache and dalvik from CW 2.5.x recovery and installed dta2sd (sometimes it helps) and then 20110307 gapps. Reboot and still no gapps functionality.
So, I brought out the bigger hammer (after a couple of tries at gapps install) and wiped data/factory, dalvik, cache partition, restored nandroid, reboot. Still no gapps. Repeated the same wipe, restore nandroid, install dta2sd, install gapps, reboot. Still no gapps.
Now I'm getting desperate. Less than 72 hours till plane leaves! I next changed to AmonRA recovery and wiped, various nandroid/gapps/dta2sd combinations and still no gapps functionality.
Switched to CW 3, yeah, I know... And wiped cache, dalvik, factory/data, and even formatted system. Various installations and it still refused to install gapps.
I next tried the CW 2.x factory/data wipe, dalvik, cache, and then installed Gigglebread 7.0.2, dta2sd beta4(like always), and gapps 20110307 and rebooted. As expected, sterile phone, touch android, and then I'm prompted for google account. I skip that and sure enough, market is back and I can add google accounts.
AUGH. Unless someone has a suggestion, I'm probably going to have to do a full reinstall tomorrow. I've been wanting to do it, but not this close to a trip.
On a side note, is it normal for a swap of the SIM card to wipe out my account settings? I will make sure from now on that my TI b/u is up to date.

Infuriating as it is, especially as you must have so much to do already, a re-install might be best at this point. Trying to troubleshoot and avoid doing this could just mean more wasted time in the long run.

Yup, already on that path. I fell asleep last night or I would have finished. I did manage to get a TI backup of many of my apps (gmail especially) so hopefully I won't have to set those back up again since I'm using two-factor auth on all of them (10 accounts) and don't want to go through the process of invalidating and recreating the app specific passwords again.

I am also facing the same problem now.
I was on Cyanogen Mod 7.0.3 when some application weirdly started building up data on system storage. There was only 16 KB of space left and it became un-responsive. So I restarted it, only to find the looping Cyan logo.
Fortunately I had a backup from 15 days back, which was CM 7.0.2. So, I flashed that and I thought I am back. But, I found Market was not working, in fact it was not even showing up in the app list. Also, Contacts data was wiped out and when I tried to check out the account and settings, google account option itself was not showing up.
I tried flashing 7.0.3 + latest gapps package using Rom manager, that did not work. I tried a clean wipe and flashed 7.0.2 from my backup, no effect. Then flashed latest gapps again, no change.
It is frustrating now. It looks as if google is not supporting my device anymore.
Any suggestion is welcome.
Did you check md5 from your gapps package?
You said you were using ROM manager so I suppose you are on cwm but are you on cwm 3.x or are you on cwm 2.5.1.4? If your on 3.x then downgrade if not then maybe try Amon-RA with temasek system wipe maybe just making a clean install of your recovery might fix it.
Also you might want to try flashing from recovery instead of ROM manager. Just for the fun of it.
Might also need to partition sd card again as CWM 3.0 probably fubar it.

error 492 when downloading

all of a sudden when i go to the market to update my apps it starts and then returns and error 492.
i have been on overcome 4.0 for almost as long as the rom has been out and i am using overcome 4.0 kernel just as long.
this started happening yesterday and i have not been able to download new apps or update existing apps.
any idea how to fix this.
i have wiped davlik in recovery. i have cleared all cache and still not luck.
any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance
I am also experiencing the 492 error on the Play store. I am using a Wildfire S flashed with Cyanogen Mod 7.2 and the latest version of the play store. So far I have tried:
-Clearing Cache Partition
-Clearing Dalvik Cache
-Fixing Permissions
-Clearing data/cache for Play store and google framework
-Factory reset and repeating above
-chmodding left right and centre
The error occurs both when updating and downloading new apps from the market. I can still install APKs via ADB and the file manager.
I've tried everything I can think of, and google my laptop to bits on the issue and none of the solutions I have found offer anything that I haven't already tried.
Can anybody think of anything missed? The only thing I have not done is reflash the ROM.
Cheers
Mark
I reflashed Overcome and everything was fine since 7/14/2012
today i am getting the error 492... again and apps will not download or update.
does anyone know why this is happening?
its very frustrating

[Q] Play Store Crashing

So I rooted my friends X8, and flashed a custom rom two weeks ago. The only problem was the Play Store crashing (he also has stock kernel because as far as I'm aware newer X8's can brick if you try to flash a kernel), I've only installed ROM's with stock kernel support. I've deleted Dalvik Cache and Cache. I've flashed that same ROM twice again, it would work for a couple of minutes, then start bugging out again. I've tried a different ROM, every time flashing following the standard procedure, full wipe before install. I've tried downloading the newest gapps and flashing them (while wiping cache). I've also tried downloading the market .apk, the new one, some of the older ones, nothing. I've tried wiping Play Store cache and data, I've tried wiping cache and data of other Play Store "sub-applications", like some market helpers etc. Some of these worked, but only for a couple of minutes. The last time what I did was I changed the theme in the theme chooser, which worked for an entire day. But it happened again. I tried installing a different home launcher, no dice. Has anyone encountered such a problem/found a fix/workaround/solution?
What happens is, you browse the playstore normally, but if you try to download an app, it stops mid download, says "android.process.media has stopped" or "android.process.*playstore or something like that, cannot recall it correctly* has stopped"
Android version is 4.0.4.
Please, does someone know what to do? Every other thread I've seen, I've tried everything they recommend, didn't help...
Android 4.0 is not so much stable for stock kernel..
So it would be better it you flash gingerbread on it...
