[RESOLVED-THANKS GREG!!]market issue-across the boards(please help?)

EDIT:
RESOLVED
THANKS GREG :-D
ok heres the scoop
i first starting noticed it today when just messing around trying diffferent apps (check out "spring ball" simple but fun!) the app downloaded, but upon completion, the market.vending force closed. i tried and retried and retried and no apps would install. thinking the issue was my rom, i did a fresh wipe and reflash. market worked!
-regawmod
later in the day the issue started again. fresh wipe and reflash. market worked!
-regawmod
again.
-regawmod
sick and tired of reflashing, i flashed fresh 2.0d in hopes to avoid the error. flash was sucessful, had fun themeing, market worked! once again, messing around with some new apps, the issue persisted. fresh wipe and reflash. market worked!
again.
-fresh2.0d
again
-fresh2.0d
GOD DAMMIT. in hopes to correct whatever the issue was i flashed damages latest, thinking, hey, its the closest to stock thats available in regards to 2.1, shouldnt have any issues. issue STILL persists.
i posted the issue in flipz thread, with a confirmation of the same issue from another user, but no fix (mondays apparently arent dev days lol; FLIPZ WHERE ARE YOU?!)
information:
i have the latest prl and flipz pri. i have stock radio and latest recovery (green nexusbear :-D). the fact is, whatever rom i flash, in the BEGINNING i am able to download all my apps, but after about a half hour, everytime i download an app from the market, it finishes downloading, then the market force closes, and the app just sits there at "xxx sucessfully downloaded" no install at all. i can still install from my SD card. at the beginning of every flash, i admit i go on a huge deletion spree via root explorer, but i have done my research and know what is safe to remove, i dont think thats the issue; maaaybe it is?
normally i would post a logcat, but i cant download and install it to post it!
anymore confirmations of the same issue, any FIXES?
tia

i hate to bump, as much as you hate to see it, but i could really use some help on this one

This happened to me too several times. There's a very easy fix
Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> Market -> Uninstall Updates
Ta-da If you have an uninstaller app it's even easier!

For whatever reason, there is an update being installed to Vending.apk. It doesn't do anything except for break it. Market will still work (the way it's supposed to actually), you're not really uninstalling anything.
And yes, you did

hm. i do a few metamorphs upon initial flash of a rom (namely 3g icon over ev, and sometimes a lockscreen) could one of these be breaking them?
thank for the link. running damages latest, but dear GOD do i hate the stock rosie. espresso is my flavor
btw; your the one who got me completely addicted to metamorph: THANKS! i dont think many people see the benifits of it, and its too bad. it should DEFINATLY be our main scource for theming. really strips down the elements to personalize it to YOUR needs :-D i refuse to flash updates anymore for themes lol
okokok back on topic, im going to give it a test now and report back before the night is out.
thanks a ton greg!

No it couldn't. While the Rosie morphs DO edit com.htc.resources.apk (the same place where the 3g icon is) they don't touch the status bar icons, just the Rosie pngs in drawable-port-mdpi.
Glad I could be of help

rightright make sense, dumb question; the whole IDEA of metamorph is to only edit the specific files in the .thm right? der
thanks again, and like i said, ill report back later
off to customize
:-D

ok report
i wiped and reflashed damagecontrol
i let it sit for a few before installing anything
i installed a few apps, and it went great
BUT
as soon as i downloaded and installed metamorph and applied the 3g icon, the market force closed.
going in for your fix now, greg

greg buddy your fix worked like a charm :-D
i hope to see you over at the evo portal once its released
thanks!

New leak 2.3.15 DEODEXED zip

Found the zip file for the new leak. Didn't see posted here other than by using the blackhat app.
Haven't tried it, so use it at your own risk. I'm not liable for any damage to your phone or you
http://www.mediafire.com/file/drixq6ry6ja83oq/DX-2315-Deodexed.zip
Instructions:
Bootstrap Recovery, Mount, Mount System, Apply Update.zip
I don't know how to do the first 3, so if anyone could elaborate for those noobs like me would be awesome
You can follow the original thread on another forum

Hopefully I'm not breaking any rules. If I am let me know, and I'll take the link out

You can find the Droid X bootstrap app in the market. Just download it and run, then select boot into recovery, scroll down to Mount & Storage, mount system, apply zip. This is all assuming your already rooted.

Rom manager doesn't work on my droid for some reason. It reboots the phone but nothing else. My phone is rooted. I don't know if I should buy this and it doesn't work
But thank you for explaining what to do very helpful

Rom Manager and the Bootstrap tool are two seperate utilities. Search under koush to find it if your having trouble. You don't need rom manager in order to install roms.

Hey
I downloaded it. I hit bootstrap recovery and then the second link. It rebooted and got to the "green screen". I went to back up and restore and hit it. Now my screen is black. Did I messed up my phone, is it normal and takes a while, or can I just pull out the battery and start fresh??
EDIT: Forget it got it, it was empty, I just hit the power button and it went back to normal....
Actually I'm supposed to hit the camera button not the home button, I just saw that :/

You are definitely NOT breaking any rules.
The leak is just that, a leak of a Verizon test ROM, or perhaps Moto, but leaked software nonetheless.
It is not anyones original work other that Google, Verizon, Moto.
If it was a ROM Developers personally modded tweaked themed built ROM, then it would be inappropriate.
I feel that leaks should always be given to the community for free if someone gets ahold of one, its better for the community.
Anyways...I have installed and works fine...no significant changes from. 13 I have seen.
Cheers!

The market speed on this leak SUCKS. If you're happy with what you have, stay there. You gain absolutely NOTHING from updating to this.
If you want, I can make you a build.prop that says your running 2.3.15 and it'd be the same thing. You'd never notice.

I had a similar issuing going from the first leak to the second. What I did is simply restored the original market that I had backed up via Titanium backup. I suspect just clearing the cache and resetting defaults will have the same result.

No, I tried everything. Clearing cache/data did nothing. I did a checkin, a *228, and replaced build.props, everything. Only thing i didnt do was restoring a market from Titanium. Glad it worked for you, but I really dont notice a difference or see any need whatsoever to make this "upgrade".
Look at the thread on MyDroidWorld.com about it lol It seems more like a bug reporting thread than a "thanks for the good work" thread.

Thanks venc.

What is that build.prop I saw the thread and it speeds up the phone and other stuff, not sure. You just install it over the ROM or does it have to come with the ROM?

[Q] Twingerbread Camera Issue

I would post this in the Android Development, but cannot since i have not posted much.
Aaaaanyway, seen an issue that other are having with the rom that I would like to fix if I can. Camera will not go into video recording as it FC's every time. Same with if you try barcode scanner and the likes.
So far I have reflashed, deleted email.apk, camera.apk, camerafirmware.apk, tried hacked camera.apk, stock.apk, blah blah.
Wondering if someone found a different cause and or solution.
Was using Serendipity but not sure I ever noticed if it was aproblem since I barely use these functions these days.
Was fine when it was stock (way back when).

Since you have deleted Email.apk you are having this problem. Advice you to not delete apps that are needed for the ROM to function properly

Sorry..
Misunderstood.
I noticed that in your thread to give it a try, that it worked for some people so I did, not that it happened after I did.
Wow that sentence looks retarded.
Lets try it again. Had the camera and barcode issues THEN tried the above.

Ok let me take a step back. Do you mean that just after a fresh install you are facing this problem? I mean you havent restored apps+data using Tibu etc?
Edit: people who had problem either deleted Email.apk or CameraFirmware.apk and thats what my first impression was

Oops, misunderstood that post on the email delete.
Anyway, I have reflashed with no luck to the fix.

I am running the same version 3.3 right now a fresh flash and just recorded a video.. Let me know if you used Tibu to restore apps+data.. thats my next guess

Yes
Correct. Issue still after re-flash, no TiBu yet.
On a seperate note, I really like the rom. Looking forward to the possible blue theme. Came from Serendipity which I liked as well.
Don't necessarily need these functions (I barely use them), I just like to have things fixed.

Ok now one last thing that i can try would be to request you to download the ROM package again.. ODIN back to JF6 for a fresh install.. Flash the fresh downloaded package and see what happens.. you may have a bad download is my last guess

Will do
I will try another re-flash.
What do you thing Tibu is messing with (if that is it)?

it might just affect if by mistake any system app or data is included in the list which can cause camera to FC
EDIT: PM me if you cannot stil get camera to work. Would be happy to help

Still reflashing. I will let you know how it goes.
Again great work on the ROM. I am just being a perfectionist on something I barely use.

That did the trick. Maybe bad download.
I will also have to be more selective on what I let TiBu restore.
Thanks and keep up the good work. Again looking forward to Bluebread.

Alright now keep enjoying 3.3 till you see a 4.0 coming your way, and a blue theme too

I have re-installed this ROM twice on my captivate sgh-i897 ... the video-camera does NOT work. period. moved on to continuum's rom, because ... the video camera works, for one.

Twingerbread is a nice rom, but has anyone thought about flashing to Apex (i think 5.2 is the latest). Unless i am wrong, it replaced Twingerbread.
If I am wrong, PLEASE don't start calling me an idiot. I do sometimes get facts mixed up.

you mean you installed ApeX 5.2 and without restoring your apps + data with TiBU camera wasnt working for you? I have heard this problem before and everytime it was restoring apps+data using TiBU that was causing issue.. or let me know if you have deleted email.apk?

Does the same thing happen if another backup app is used? I've used My Backup Root since I started flashing, and I've never experienced anything look that(and I ran Apex 5.1 for about a week before going to Continuum v4).

[Q] CM 7.1 with all the goodies

I'm having a problem installing CM 7.1 and all the speed/memory tweaks. Ive used MANY different roms with alot of tweaks but this one i driving me crazy. Im trying to install CM 7.1 in CWR 2.5.0.7 with the following tweaks...Firerats 1.5.9 auto patcher and KERN 2.6.35.14-10sept-v1 .....the problem is that i can not get it to boot!!!! if i dont install firerats the rom doesnt boot and goes back to CWR...if i do install firerats the screen just hangs on the htc logo...but without the tweaks CM7.1 boots fine
Please help!!

I did the following with success (this is from memory, hopefully I don't miss anything), I'm using firerats 1.5.8. I did not use a single fr patcher.
First, I flashed the firerats REMOVE zip, just to make sure I was really starting over. then flashed the latest CWM unofficial recovery...5.0.2.6.
rebooted to recovery after each step above though, and repeated wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache.
for firerats, had the mdpartmap settings at 125, 20 (just being extra cautious there, I'm seeing some lower numbers bandied about).
Anyway, from the pretty blue recovery screen, I then flashed fr-recovery, (I think it tells you to reboot to recovery again when done, possibly wiping again, anyway, it tells you) then flashed cm 7.1, gapps, kernal, and finally, fr-boot.
Seems I've heard of folks having some difficulty if they don't use a newer recovery, perhaps others can chime in on this.
After some initial settling in and reboots (it was a little hot at first, a few things were a little flakey), everything seems to be running great. I've only had it on here a few days, and I have not tweaked any performance settings, but so far, gps has been rock solid (isn't this ALWAYS a sticky point for some?) and runkeeper has stopped being so crash happy. Need to see how these things behave with age. A clean installation fixes a lot of things for awhile.

Okay, fired up gps status app, and boom, reboot. But like I said, haven't tweaked any performance settings, left everything at defaults. Will tinker eventually.

wow!!! thank you so much for the very fast reply. I am at work at the minute but i am going to try this ASAP!! Thanks again.
I will keep you informed as to how this worked out. Looks like it should work though

Ok thats awesome!! i got it all to work but i can not get android market to work. I just get FC everytime.
Is there a fix for this?

Hmm, not sure, did you use the gapps from the OP for CM7.1? Could try redownloading that and flashing it again.
also, what were your firerat settings in the partmap file? Just checking, in case you didn't use mine, which were generous, as I said.
That rather larger second number in the partmap file resolves a lot of market issues, I never have to apply any "market fixes"

My fault. I used 125 2 in the mtd instead of 125 20....worked great!!! now i can use the market...thank you so much!!! just have ooooooonnnneeeeee other small problem.
Now by busybox wont work. Keep saying no root access when obviously i do...and also i can not fix permissions in rom manager..theres always a problem eh.
Hope you can help...you've been great so far!!! got loads more internal space now

Hrm...I have to admit to never using busybox, at least not directly, I usually just install it if asked when I install/update Titanium Backup (after checking the allow unknown sources in applications settings). Are you trying to execute busybox from terminal or something? Apologies if you tried this but if you have Titanium (you should if you don't), then do this:
Go to titanium backup, go to problems then it will install busybox
I just cut and pasted that from ... somewhere.

touchpad wifi fix issue

ran into an issue flashing fix located here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23286933&postcount=61 that made my cm 7 go into a loop of rebooting. Help - is there a fix that I can apply?

The fix you're referring to dates back to March, things have come on a long way since then . Why don't you make a backup of your current rom and try the latest nightly you will probably be pleasantly surprised.

I'm surprised anyone is still using CM7. I second the suggestion of using the latest CM9 Nightly.

I'm not sure if there are certain steps you have to follow from going from CM7 to CM9 since when I got my TP, I went straight to CM9. But I think you can just download the latest ICS google apps file (gapps) and the latest nightly and then in clockwork recovery, do a data wipe/factory reset, wipe cahce and wipe dalvik cache. Then flash the nightly then the gapps. You should be fine.

I havent heard anything about the touch screen not working well. It works fine for me. And yes, you will lose your apps since you need to do a factory reset. But use Titanium backup to backup your apps. Then when you get on cm9, restore them. Just dont backup and restore system data. Apps and app data ONLY.

Ok after combing through this site there is alot I mean alot of updates after installing cm9. Is there a latest and greatest install walk through out any where? Also how or where do you get the nightly updates or is there an app that grabs them?
Thanks everyone, since I can't boot I might as well go to cm9.

Thanks, I wil give this a try tomorrow, getting to late to start in this now.
Thanks again!!

stayed up and took a crack at it. followed instructions to a T except did the ACMEUninstaller first. Then rebooted and then did the ACMEInstaller. But I still get the loop, it goes into cyanogen Loading... then shutsdown and reboots to the menu. Am I supposed to delete anything after the ACMEUninstaller before I run the ACMEInstaller?
Was there a Base CM 9 that I am supposed to have installed before I install any of the nightly builds....?
Also if I run the Nightly do I have to perform any tasks first or just go and run zip file from SD?
Thanks
UPDATE - copied update- nightly from notes above and ran install from zip from SD and got it going. Nice, really like the new look. I still need to know how to safely backup apps and data for future nightly updates (step by step please) because I have a few days of work ahead of me to get this back to my configuration.
PS - Has anyone tried True Image or Ghost to create a backup image of the SD and if so does it work when it's restored?
Thanks again!!!!!

As far as backing up the contents of the internal SD, I tried everything out there and then came back to tried and true command line, look up a command line operation called robocopy... what you do is boot into recovery and mount the USB storage. Then there are several commands you can issue to copy files from your inner SD to your computer but the one I use is /mir, which replicates the contents EXACTLY, even hidden files, but like I said look up the wiki page on robocopy for more details
Have fun with the CM9 and get ready for CM10 hopefully not too far in the future, and do plenty of relaxed reading

One bug I am having. The nightly I was told was the update-cm-9-20120815-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip works fine but when I run the newest update-cm-9-20120909-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip it stops and states bad file. Then it wont boot into CM9. So i run the update-cm-9-20120815-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip once again from install from zip and it boots. I can extract the update-cm-9-20120909-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip and see all the files while its on the TP SD card. So is there a step I am missing when installing from zip to the latest and greatest Nightly?
Thanks
PS - This has happened on two different HP TP's I have.

Only thought is there may be something wrong with the download even if you can see it from a file manager. Suggest downloading again and checking md5 sums

Is the camera in CM9 going to be fixed anytime soon? Probably missed that somewhere....
Thx
