I am unable to get my text-to-speech to work after many ROMs and many different versions of android I am still having a problem. I say that because I do not think this problem has anything to do with a particular ROM. That being said, I am running the CM6 nightly (10/13/10).
In an attempt to download text-to-speech though the marketplace, I downloaded voicebot which needs text-to-speech to run properly, after installing it prompts me to download text-to-speech from the marketplace, I click go, it searches and finds nothing.
If anyone has had this or a similar problem, I am open to any suggestions to try and get this working.
ps it did work when I first had the stock sprint running on this phone.
Text-to-Speech
Anything? am i posting this in the right place?
Have you tried reflashing? Reflashing with no wipe? Removing any themes?

It works fine for me. I use pico for my tts.
Did you install it? When I first ran google navigation it prompted me to install it, took me directly to market, and then it worked for me
I have a copy of the svox files if you want you should b able to just place them on ur sd card and just leave them there pm me if you want them might work might not worth a try good luck

All, I am still running 4.2.5 on rooted Magic. I tried upgrading a while back but found that I had to re-flash the Navigation piece i downloaded here. For some reason it is still failing to show up, even after clearing cache and rebooting.
Am I missing something. The instability of 4.2.5 is starting to get to me...
Thanks
Why not upgrade to 4.2.12.2?
Also if you're in the US you can download the Google Maps update to get navigation without flashing anything.

Because I loose Navigation. The idea was to re-flash after updates but hasn't worked for me. My phone is rooted, I can't download Google Maps from the market.
if your phone is rooted the market should still work just fine... I run CyanMod 4.2.12.2 on my MyTouch fine, after my last flash i popped up market and updated google maps. Nav works great (you'll need the svox stuff for the voice commands but it'll walk u through that)
I had the same problem. On mine I had to download a newer 1.6 base, flash that, then flash Cyano's latest and greatest. There was something different about the older zip that would mess everything up. the filename is DRC83_base_defanged.zip Hope this helps.
did the same as above, the old 1.6 will not allow you to instal the new google maps

In order to use Google Nav, here's what you need to do, if this doesn't work then, I don't know, re-root or something.
I'm assuming your using a Mytouch (32B), but if not go here and follow the directions for 32A
1. Download the HTC Android 1.6 base image - here
2. Then download the latest CyanogenMod - Here
3. Then after backing up your SD and then wiping everything from it, put those two zip files on your SD, then flash them - being sure to flash DRC83_base_defranged first, then flash the CyanogenMod.
4. Go to the market and download the Maps update in the market. Also you'll need to install all the tts and voice stuff that goes along with Maps after you open it.
If that doesn't work, then I'm not sure.
Same for me. I was pretty bummed when I rooted and realized I had no access to Labs for Google Maps.
Solution was just to go to the market and get the update for Maps. Now everything is right in the world again.
I have a Galaxy S I9000M, just came back from repair at the Montreal Repair Depot.
Had some trouble unlocking it to run on Fido network, but finally got that working using Helroz's unlock tool (so, phone is rooted) and unlocked).
Used it for a little while (about an hour) installed a couple of apps, and now, suddenly, I cannot install apps from the Android Market. When I try to install, the app goes through the process of downloading, but then it does nothing. I get no error message, no notice of install failing, the app download indicator disappears from my notification area, and the app is not installed.
Has anyone else run into this issue?
Any idea of a fix? I have powered off/on, no change. I would prefer to avoid having to factory reset, but will do so if absolutely necessary.
Thanks in advance for any input.
Having the same exact problem here...
same issue
Same thing is happening to me as well. It started after I rooted my phone using super one click root.
I also used super one click root on my phone, but the if that's the cause of the problem, then it doesn't cause it right away. I was able to install several apps after rooting, then suddenly I couldn't install anything.
I have read that for some people, unmounting the SD card will work. i had an external SD card installed, but i had that in before I downloaded apps that installed properly. For me, unmounting (and removing) the external SD card did not have any effect on my problem.
For what it's worth, I'm not running any special ROm or anything - just standard Froyo 2.2 (JL2) as released by Samsung for the Bell I9000M (I didn't upgrade, it shipped back from repair with JL2 installed).
Same here

let the market update the new version of maps and itll work. its workin now for me.
How can I force Maps to update?
Just some info guys: it seems to be a known issue. Checked the help in the main Market page: http://market.android.com/support/bin/static.py?page=known_issues.cs .
It's under download and installation issues. Please report it if you're having the same problem so they can fix it faster.
Ok the problem seems to be fixed by downloading/updating the Google Maps app. If it still doesn't work make sure to:
-clear data on the market app
-restart your phone
-update Google map and let it install fully
Galaxyluv, can you tell me how to force Maps to update itself? I cannot find any option to make it update

I am not really sure, mine showed that it needed an update. Maybe you can try to uninstall/install Google Map again and make sure to clear data on the market application FIRST.
After clearing my Market cache, and uninstalling market updates, market re-updated itself, and I can now install apps again (who knows fo how long, though). Hopefully, it will stay and i will stay happy.
Under Manage Applications I can't uninstall Market Updater for the above solution.
Any help?
im haviing the same issue guys, i have put a post up with same sort of problems

Sorry could I get some clarification on the suggestion jayisgod posted? Cos Im obviously missing something here.
I personally force stopped the market App, cleared the data in Manage Applications (btw the Cache button is grayed out) and then restarted the Market app (Agreed on the terms blah blah) and still get the same issue.
Btw in Manage Applications -> All I can see a Market Updater package but I can't delete it or force stop it (both options are grayed out).
Thanks
PS: I am using Darky's Rom V9.1 if that makes any difference

Ok so I just got my Milestone rooted yesterday and installed iceandfire custom rom on it.
After doing so, I found out that there's no Android Market app installed on it. After a quick Google search, it seems there is no official download link for the app, and that it only comes pre-installed on certain devices, not all of them.
Anyway, I did some search and found that I can easily install it by just downloading the .apk file and use Astro (which comes pre-installed with iceandfire) to install it. I found the link here:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/downloadinstall-new-android-market-apk-application-v-3-0-26/
So I downloaded it and it installed fine. I then launch it and it pops up a message saying I don't have an account and then I need to sign in or create one. I click on OK to create one but nothing pops up. I rebooted my phone and did it again, still the same thing. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I've tried many suggestions, mostly from here:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android Market/thread?tid=2c6343eb1c5c4e2e&hl=en
and none of it works. Can someone give me some help?

You need to first flash Google Apps (gapps) and you will get the Market and other Google services. You can create a gmail account on your computer and use that to sync with your phone.

Ya I already have a Gmail account, just couldn't figure out how to get it to work with Android Market.
Hmm I also did find some info on gapps, I downloaded it but couldn't install it using Astro. Do I put that in the updates folder, the same as where I put the custom rom, and then apply the update? Would I have to remove the custom rom first to prevent it from flashing my phone again?
YOU HAVE TO FLASH GAPPS !!!
Do it like you flashed Ice and Fire and any other MOD in OR !!
Some times it's very important to READ a Thread and don't only search for Downloadlinks.
Sent from my Milestone using Tapatalk
yup, got it flashed and installed successfully. Now I have another problem, I can't seem to get it to sign in? I get this message:
"cannot establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your sim card may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues call customer care"
At first I thought it's probably my connection, so I tried using 3G instead of WIFI, but still the same thing. I then tried to create an account but it gave me the same error, so I can't create or sign in at all.
I did a quick search and people have said it could be that the SIM card or your service provider doesn't support it or something. Which doesn't make sense as why would setting up an account like this be relevant to your service provider? It's just the same as setting up an exchange or email account on any device.......also, while I was still using Windows Mobile on my Xperia X1 or HTC Touch Pro, I was able to install Android on it and went through the same setup process and got it working properly. So I don't think it's gotta do with the SIM card....

I'm experiencing lots of issues with Cyanogenmod
First of all: Market
Market was downloaded from here: http://wiki.cyanogen...amsung_Galaxy_S
At first run, market was saying there is not enough space for the application, I went to manage applications menu and I saw that there was no internal storage at all.
I thought it was very weird and wiped everything including devihak cache then another issue appeared (previous issue was not resolved).
Settings were not being saved after each reboot.
In each boot I was asked to go through the android market setup wizard and everytime I had to add my account.
After all these issues, I reflashed Cyanogen including the market.
My internal storage gets recognized, android market account settings are saved but everytime I try to download an app, market force closes just right after when you go to the app's page.
This message appears
"The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly.
Please try again".
It's really driving me nuts.
Secondly:
No KIES support.
Yeah, I can't restore my contacts from Kies
Any suggestions?
I really like this Custom ROM.
It's the best I have tried so far but I'm experiencing issues with market, kies mode and makes want to go back to stock firmware
I really want to keep this ROM because it also has Bluetooth support for Sixaxis and WiiMote controllers as I have heard.
Off-topic:
I guess I may end up using stock firmware again.
Is it possible to install bluetooth protocols to support Sixaxis controllers (PS3) and WiiMotes on stock?
Thanks a lot.

Do you have many apps installed?
About the kies trouble, it will never work with cm7, since your phone isn't a Samsung anymore. Cm7 is built from aosp so none of the framework dependencies that Samsung apps needs are present.

Market in CM7 has this known and well reported issue. The solution is really simple too. Just change your phone's language to English (United States). Worked for me.
No Kies with CM7. As people already told you, this isn't another samsung based rom. Nothing from samsung is included here so no software will work either. That includes kies. btw, kies is hardly a reason not to use cyanogen, personal opinion. You can do perfectly without.
Now, back to restoring your contacts, didn't you have an account on google associated with your phone before? if you did, more than likely your phone had all your contats, calendar, etc sent and backed up to your account. Only thing you need now is associate it again and they'll be sync'd back without you even noticing
If not, well, flash back a stock rom, restore from kies, associate a google account, have it syncronize contacts, flash CM and follow the rest of what i said above. That's how it's supposed to happen.
Read something for the wii controls, never tried it though. I honestly can't find a purpose for controling my phone (or game even) with a wii remote
Or use active sync.

These are all from Lollipop. I have them all running on Bad Boyz Rom.
Edit: I thought these were signed because they installed just fine on my device. It would seem I was wrong. You will have to uninstall the original and install this to get it up and running in some cases.
Any way to confirm these are safe? I'm getting an error about "conflicting signature".

As far as I know they were pulled from the Lollipop build, but other than that, no. I have them installed on my device and they are running great. I think they have a conflicting sig to keep unrooted peeps from installing. you will have to uninstall the old app and install this one to get it up and running. I believe you had to do the same w/ the keyboard app too.
