[Q] Pocket Legends Download Issues

I seem to be having some problems downloading Pocket Legends from the Market. I was able to download it shortly after its release while I was using Cog 2.3b3. However, since updating to Cog 2.3b6 and now Perception Build 1, I can't get the download to start. After selecting to download, a notification pops up, but disappears before the progress reaches 1%.
Has anyone experienced something like this and come across a fix?

Just download the apk from here:

Thanks for the link. Downloading it right now.
Does anyone know why I had that problem though? Don't wanna have to go apk hunting every time I can't download something from the market.

Same problem here and I've tried it on multiple roms. No idea why, seems to be only pocket legends everything else will download and install fine

I have the exact same issue on cog 2.3b6. It just pops up and disappears. Hopefully we don't see it with any other apps. Does cog remove at&t's market limitations?

agreed, it's definitely not the roms that are doing this. It's something with that one game. I have not had any problems with any other applications

My theory is actually has to do with the ROM. I am thinking that it has to do with the android id. Since the game seems to picking up popularity, I bet multiple people are trying to download it at once with the same id on their phone. Could try changing the id and downloading again.

When I first had this problem I was researching the interwebs and it's not only the Captivate having this problem when trying to download pocket legends. People with different phones where also not having any trouble downloading any other applications, just pocket legends.

Definitely not the rom or even the phone... I've got the same problem on an evo.

Have the same issue here.. Cog 2.3.6. I tried both with 3g/wireless - and nadda.

Chiming in to say I'm having the same problem. Icon shows for a second then disappears. Captivate running cognition 2.36b

I'm in the same boat. It just refuses to download to my Cappy from the Market. Tried over 3G and WiFi and didn't make a difference. Tried the option within the game to download the latest version of the game from pocketlegends.com website and that worked fine, so it's something about trying to get it from the Market that seems messed up.

Pocket Legends' APK is now larger than can fit in /cache. (28.4 vs ~26.7)
This isn't going to change unless STS figures out either how to shrink their files or deliver the majority of them post-install.

Had this problem also
It has to do with the android i.d. number, if you downloaded it from the market on a different i.d. then your going to have the problem with it in the market. The first time I dl pocket legends I had a generic i.d., and then I changed it back to the original and had problems dl pocket legends from the market again. I don't know if this effects updates, but just in case, I have both android i.d's written down in a safe place. Flash back to stock to get the original i.d. if you don't have it, using android i.d. or some app that does the same, and save and write down your android i.d.. Don't forget to find and write down your current i.d., so that if need be you can switch between the two when necessary.

I've changed my Android ID from a randomly generated one, to my correct one...and still haven't had luck getting the download to initiate.

Sorry

Check and make sure you have the correct Product Code for our phones, I believe there is a thread about it in development. That may help.

Sprint hero sends but won't receive texts?

I have a rooted sprint hero running aosp mod (latest stable, not gingerbread - don't remember the version number). Up until Sunday everything was working fine. Sunday evening I noticed that I hadn't gotten any texts all day (highly unusual). Started to text my fiancée, didn't recieve a response. Called her a couple hours later, she said she'd recieved them and replied. I figured it was a sprint issue and would pass by the next day. Next day, still nothing. Stood next to a friend of mine, had him text me, nothing. Sent him a text and he received it almost instantly. As of today I still can't recieve texts, though everything else works just fine. Is this a simple software issue on my end that can be fixed by reflashing my rom? Or is it something more serious that I need to see a sprinnt Rep for? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I saw a guy have this issue with cyanogenmod. He ended up flashing a different rom and all his texts came through at once then. He was using the nightly releases, so I think he just waited until the next nightly came out. You might should just reflash and see if that helps.

This is a common issue. Usually it is due to deleting the stock messaging app because you have handcent or chomp, but those apps pull the info from the stock sms app, so if you deleted it, reinstall it. The other cause is just a known bug in froyo, and though I have never had the issue, many many others have been able to fix it by going into recovery, nandroiding your current setup, wipe EVERYTHING, flash a sense rom, go into settings and update your profile and PRL, then open texts up (you should get a bunch), then going back into recovery, wipe everything again, and restore your nand. Hope this fixes it, good luck.

Sounds good, I'll give it a shot when I get off work. Does it matter what sense rom I flash? More specifically, can I just use an ruu from HTC.com or will I lose my root?

RUU takes longer. also, dpending on how you rooted you will probably lose root. just run ANY sense based rom (custom too), fresh,NFX,liquid, whatever, it'll only take like 5-10 minutes. Also, just a hint, make a nand of the sense rom before you go back to your current one, that way you can update your profile/PRL whenever you want. I keep a sense NFX rom in my nand folder for just that.

Or you can wait till I release an updated dualboot script and have both easily accessible. Should be released this week.
Oh, and like some others said, its a problem with froyo and some phones. You might look in the froyo sense thread and try the fix listed in the first post.

You're awesome. Followed your advice, worked perfectly.
However, I'm now having a separate issue (I assume). All physical keys work fine, with the exception of my home key which does absolutely nothing once the phone boots. Is this a related issue? Did I screw up somewhere along the line?

I have heard of this as well. Can't remember the fix, but it sounds rom related. The home key action is in /system/usr/keylayout/heroc-keypad.kl you can also check there? You could try to re-restore the nand again - wipe ALL first. Also, I know most launchers have home key options, make sure those settings look normal. Also maybe go into your launcher app in settings/apps/manage apps and clear the defaults for it, then see if home does anything. IF that doesn't work search for member "appleflap" on xda, he made a hardkey remapper that you can fix/change the function of the home key.

Reflashed the current nand to no avail. Flashed a clean install of aosp, works fine. I can deal with the loss of my settings, I suppose.
Thanks for all of your help, bud.

I am actually having a similar issue, but I am periodically not able to send texts. Receive just fine, but some texts fail over and over.
I am running CM 6.1 stable, and using the default text app. Anyone had this issue?
Sorry about the bump, but I did not feel it necessary to create a new thread after I found this one.
Edit: I totally also recognize this could be something to do with the sprint network as well

alternative skype for 2.1?

is there any alternative android application working for 2.1 eclair? like nimbuzz? tango? that has working voice call over wifi, but still in skype account?.haaaaay, I'm sick of waiting for froyo 2.2 to work the skype. im not confident to try flashing roms yet bcoz I don't have money income yet to replace this phone If anything bad happened like bricking it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App

I am not sure of one that uses your skype account info. but i know you could download Yahoo Messenger and there is a plugin to download and allow you to use voice.. just not video.. i had that when I was on 2.1 and couldnt use skype myself..
Flashing is more mental imho.. i had my phone for just 2-3weeks and i too was scared. .but i went ahead and did it.. read the "how too's" and in the one from the development page there is a 3part video that shows you the complete steps of what to do.. watch that video (maybe 2-3times to be sure) and follow the video along with instructions from the sticky and you will be fine.. it was a lot easier than i thought and I was ok.. I know you will be ok with either the new Cognition 3.04 or the new Andromeda 2.0.. i used Cog first and flashed right over that to Andromeda 2.0 with no issues so far.. Andromeda is a lot faster and seems to be better on my battery as well..
Anyway.. hope that helps some..

[Q] Self rebooting latest stock 2.1 ROM

Hi,
Today, I had self reboot after a recieved phonecall. the other side ended call and my screen stood black and then rebooted.
I had similar problems before, either this would happen or screen just stood black until I pull out the battery, but I was pretty sure it was because of Roadsync.
I allready explained everything here:
kulen said:
I have crashes with stock SE ROM.
and I suspect it has something to do with Roadsync and exchange mail.
I noticed that receving mail and talking to phone at the same time crashes my phone.
So I suspected on Roadsync
So tried to upgrade it, but it crashed again
then I upgraded ROM (to the latest official 2.1), and it did it again, but just once for now.
I suspected it has something to do with Exchange protocol and (or) this ROM or something. But I tried Touchdown and it didn't crash so I know it's Roadsync problem (because if touchdown can work Roadsync should too).
Unfortunatelly I have to use Roadsync because it's SE included, and touchdown needs to be payed.

This time I didn't recieve a mail and I wasn't looking mail or something when this happened.
I have this:
E15i
2.1-update1
M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-534004015
2.6.29
[email protected] #1
2.1.1.A.0.6
ZD Box task killer reports this applications when my phone is on, and I believe it's all that's active (but it doesn't show SE included apps):
Alarm Clock Plus
Tasker - just installed - no profile added
XDA
ZDbox
I also have Roadsync Exchange and Gmail syncing all the time.
Did anybody experience something similar, and what could be the problem,
SE android, apps, syncing, hardware ...?
It's very important for me to have reliable phone, so I would like to solve this problem.
I can't recreate problem, and it only happend second time since I upgraded software a few days ago.
So if somebody has the same problem please post your experience, maybe we'll come to conclusion easier together.
thank you!

Are you living in stone age dude?
First of all, if you dont want custom ROM (wich I suggest you)
ROOT YOUR PHONE, second install System app remover from market, and remove all stock apps that can be removed. (Dont touch gapps).
You can easily find isntructions here on this very forum, it's sticky!
My opinion is - install some custom ROM - try Elelinux or Floyo v0.20 by Racht. Much more stable and faster than stock.
I had same problem like you. Now it's gone.

Well,
I have had HTC Touch Cruise for a few years and I could throw it away a month after I bought it if there were no XDA and custom ROM's.
So, no I don't live in stone age, and I'm not new on XDA and (or) with custom ROM's
The thing is, as I said, I need phone to be reliable, because of my work.I can't play with it, root it, test ROM's or so, because I'm on call support, which includes weekend and night. so I need to catch some time to play with it.
Until then I must use stock ROM, and I'm just gathering information about X8.
And to be honest I want to use stock ROM for some time until I get familiar with phone and android and I'm sure all hardware is ok.
If this is not android problem but, let's say, Roadsync (or hardware or something else) problem then it could happen on custom ROM's too.
so it would be nice to find out what's the problem, if possible
Thank you for your answer, and please tell me more details about problem you had.
did you just have custom reboots, or freezes or what?
did you use Roadsync or any other Exchange mail?
did you try to find out what it was before you installed custom ROM?
thank you

I didnt use any of it, my phone rebooted frequently. After calls too. And it was running in a background.
So, you want reliable phone...
You must root to uninstall these apps. Try it. Its maybe a solution.
Install custom rom without overclock if you want REALIBLE phone. Belive me.
I'll post you all things you need, it will take an hour of your time.

I do plan to install custom ROM. otherwise I would report this to SE also.
but I thought if we figure out what causes this it could help others and maybe on custom ROM's too if there's the same problem.
I was thinking of installing racht's floyo 0.20, but I will not be able to do this until next week for sure. and I still have to figure out how to sync phone with exchange server after that, because I don't want to pay for a new application and I don't want to use cracked one.
I didn't understand what was running in the background for you, and which applications do you think I should uninstall?.
I can uninstall all but the most suspicious - Roadsync because I don't have alternative for it
and even that I won't risk doing at least until next week
but uninstalling SE included apps one by one and checking if phone still reboots is a good way to start searching for a problem. only thing about that is that it only reboots once in a few days so it would take a looooot of time and I wouldn't be sure.
or maybe I could uninstall all of the apps and use a phone for a few days to see if this happens again. and then start searching for a particular app that causes reboot, if it doesn't reboot without apps
but it's too much time consuming for one man (or even a few) that need that phone for everyday use.
I guess if somebody doesn't post a solution I will have to wait until I install custom ROM.
or maybe really post a problem to SE - I don't believe they will do anything about it but maybe it's good if they know people are not happy with their phones.
Got to think about it
Dare-Devil Inside thank you for your help. I appreciate it.
I already downloaded everything I need a few days ago, except the ROM itself.
but if I need some kind of advice I will contact you

I also remember having some reboots when i used the stock rom...
Believe it or not, from the last month that nobodyatall found the sd card removed problem, custom roms are the best... not to mention dioxanh's modules...
I also believe that custom roms may still become better...

They ARE better.
Look this way: we have fully functional custom roms with NO bugs (ok, tiny bugs like compass not working in gmaps and DSP manager is broken) and it's Froyo-based wich automatically means it's better than stock wich is Eclair. Overall, it's much more stable, smoother and faster to use than stock.
Also, custom ROMs are very smooth now (thanks to doixanh and his MDDI lag fix)
And an another thing: no self-reboots at all... when my phone slows down I use ATK and Speed Boost. (Or Fast Reboot app)
Also I run Cachemate once a week.
@kulen: so, before installing custom, root your phone and remove RoadSync and other unused system apps. (Don't uninstall Google apps, phone.apk and similiar)
EDIT:
P.S.: PM me, but in Croatian please, I'm sick of English

I thought all of the SE stuff would be gone when I update custom ROM?
and what app should I use instead of Roadsync for syncing mail with exchange server?
All apps that I found needs to be payed. HTC has exchange support in mail app so maybe some ROM with sense UI could have it included?
I also like Croatian more but this stuff may be useful to others also, so it's better to write in forum.
I'll PM you when I'll have some specific (and I'm sure I'll have) questions that others shouldn't be bored with.

In stock Email app, when you go to log-in, after entering adress and password, it asks you "What type of an account is this?" - One option is Exchange
So, I think stock ROM also have same (or similiar) email app (not gmail) as custom roms so you could try it and see does it works.
If it works, you can update to custom and use that for syncing.
Basically, our email app also supports syncing, like HTC. (seems to support - try first)
By the way: When flashing custom, there's an option backup. So, just before flashing back up your current OS, and flash new one. If you don't like it, or something you need does not work, you can easily go back to your stock ROM and continue using phone as before.

It didn't ask me anything, and I can only chose POP3 or IMAP from menus.
so I guess it could be Froyo stuff if you have that option? or ROM cookers included app from some other phone that supports Exchange natively.

everything else seems to be working. so I'll be using it for some time now.

Good ROM for Hero?

Hey All,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm tired of the version 2.1 stock ROM for the Sprint Hero. Even when its rooted and I clean out all the bloatware its still sluggish, buggy, and it has lately been aggravating me to no end. I want a nice lightweight ROM that has everything working (radio, wifi, data, etc.) but I don't want the HTC Sense UI if possible. Also, if it could have built in wifi tether (because all the apps I've used on the stock ROM tend to lock up or reboot the device) that would be great. Also, Apps2SD would also be nice but not a requirement.
Can someone recommend a good one?
Thanks in advance!

you are posting in the way wrong section this would have been better suited in general or Q&A
but my recommendation for you would be CM7 the official release for the HeroC, its stock android with some flavor. good battery life, apps2sd supported via built in manager (added in 2.2). built in tethering in the device settings menu (AOSP 2.3 feature) and last but not least it's AOSP based so SenseUI is nowhere to be found

I have tried all and in my mind the fastest has been hero deck. I even turned down my MHz to 691 when I use to have it at 768.

Deck's rom is fast....No doubt, but.....if you're looking for a blend of speed and stability I'd listen to ThoughtlessKyle and go with CM7. That is what I put back on my Hero for my son to use.

I'll definitely look into both ROMs. Thanks for the help!

My stock rom ran into issues the other day. Force close loop on senseui or something. Basically required a factory reset so while I was at it I decided to put a new rom on. I went with CM7. Had done a bunch of reading in the past and everyone was using CM6 then. Its nice. The one thing I didnt like is the voicemail. Getting it setup to download my voicemails to the phone was kinda a pain and the annoying texts from 9016 get old quick. Not sure why there is no solution for this. And running a separate program to block messages from 9016 isnt really a solution in my opinion.
I hear that deck rom has voicemail working with no additional installation/config necessary and none of the 9016 text messages so I plan to give it a try.
