New Market Question - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey so I realized that since im running CM 6.1 im not gonna get the new market. I have seen a bunch of apks of it but people have been having issues along they lose a couple Google apps. My questions are is there a stable apk, how should I go about installing (some people said wipe market cache and dalvik)? And has anyone had download issues with the new market? Thanks in advance.

You could always flash the new market and reinstall the google apps. Or run a backup of your apps on titanium backup, flash the market, then restore your gapps minus the old market

No problem

I just started getting FC's on the Market starting last night. I am running Damage control 2.8.1 (I know its old but been working great til now). I tried fixing mismatches in recovery, tried downoading and installing vending.apk but when I try to install I get parsing error. Can anyone help?
Thanks

It should work, it's the gapps I pulled off aosp's thread. I flashed them and they work fine.

What gapps did you flash when you flashed the ROM? I looked in the DC 2.8.1 thread and I did not see the gapps file.. I don't see why there would be a different gapps for every ROM.. Nandroid and flash it, see what happens.

Hmmm. I don't know what to tell you then. I thought gapps were gapps. I flashed the one in my sig and it works fine. Do a search and see if you can find a newer gapps in here somewhere. Maybe you'll find one that works for you. Sorry I couldn't help man

[Q] how to put a theme on a htc hero sprint running 2.2.1 cm 6.1.0

im trying to put a theme on my htc hero and cant im running 2.2.1 cm 6.1.0-heroc
What exactly did you do? You should download the theme compatible with the rom you are running then put the zip on the root of your SD then flash via recovery. However you must have a recovery installed. Different themes have different directions posted in their thread for installing such as maybe wiping dalvik after flashing other than that after flashing it over your current rom you should be fine to boot up

I'm having problems installing a theme as well. I've been getting a lot of .apk files and I put them on the root of my sdcard and then install them like I would install normal apps but afterwards I have no idea where the installed .apk has gone. Do I need to change .apk files to .zip?

Well it depends if it's a zip file I go into recovery to install it. I've tried that once with the Dark Horse v4 theme only to have it get trapped on the boot screen, even after wiping both davlik and cache numerous times so I thought I'd try the apk files. I use the app Linda Manager for those.Go through the steps and once it says installed, that's where I loose it. The first time I used Linda Manager I installed the Live Mario wallpaper and that worked flawlessly probably because I at least knew where to look for live wallpapers on my phone.
Just seem to be having the hardest time installing any sort of theme on this phone.

Ok I'm running dark horse now so here's what I would do & did. Place cm6.1 STABLE or AOSP which ever you prefer on the root of your SD along with gapps (or not) anyway go into recovery, factory data wipe, cache & dalvik wipe then flash both of the zips. I'm running cm6.1 stable which I prefer. Then go ahead & reboot afterwards get settled in. Then put the zip of the theme on your SD & go into recovery then flash the theme if you go on the post I think it says to wipe cache & dalvik only before flashing the theme but even if it doesn't I believe I did. After flashing then reboot & you should be fine. On the darkhorse thread it gives you a link to the new gapps & you can flash those after cm or AOSP if you'd like & they give some directions to themeing the new market with some zips but that comes after you got the theme going. I hope this helps.

Yeah, I mean if there are others they don't get a chance to pop up as force closed because the dialer will instantly pop up after I select close Was hoping that it was just a fluke and that it would work but like I said after I select force close it'll just continue to pop up, can't do anything else.

Thinking....hmmm I think I had this problem once. Then what I did was factory wipe, cache wipe, then I did a dalvik wipe. Flashed the cm rom & gapps rebooted then went back & flashed the theme but I didn't flash the theme directly after. I let cm run for awhile then flashed it & I was good. I'm not really sure what's wrong because if you're running stable you should be fine. Also did you dl the theme zip for cm & not AOSP right?

[Q] Backup/Recovery account issues

Running CM7RC
Decided to try one of the themes so I did a backup first using ROM Manager.
Didn't like the themes so I tried to restore.
It is coming up without my google account and there is no option to add it in the account settings.
I've wiped and reapplied the backup and also fixed permissions to no avail so far.
I'm finishing a 2nd fix permissions after wiping everything (even Davlik).
Has anyone ever had this happen to them? If so, what was the fix?
I'd rather get it restored than start over...
Restoring the account settings in Titanium doesn't help either.
I'm screwed, aren't I?
Do you have the Google apps installed (market, etc)?

Yes, happened to me many times when I flashed CM and forgot to flash gapps.
Download gapps-gb-20110120-signed.zip from here: http://goo-inside.me/google-apps/ and flash from recovery.
Did you use clockworkmod 3.0? It's been known to messed things up during nandroid restore.
Flash GAPPS like other have mentioned.
If not full wipe and start over, use AMon Ra or an older CWM version

Yeah, they were there when I restored the backup but they wouldn't open because there was no google account in the phone. Could flashing gapps fix this?

Yes, it is cwm 3.0
For now I've done a full wipe and started over and after a couple of days of tweaking I'll likely forget the incident. I might try restoring and flashing gapps but I have my doubts as to whether that would work.
I'm going to have to start being more vigilant about backing up apps/settings/data in other ways if a nandroid backup isn't dependable...
Thanks for the comments.
OK, I just flashed RC2 and the account issue popped back up so it isn't necessarily that backup I did before.
Get rid of cwm 3.x and try using a different recovery...

BootManager FAQ & Discussion

I figured we needed a thread to discuss the BootManager app.
First, big thumbs up to GFlam & Conap for this app! I used Conap's CELEB CM Roms on the Eris for a long time.
Now:
They have a User Manual on their site.
What does it do? You keep your rom on the phone, and you can add up to 4 more on your SD card. You use the app's menu to select which one you want to boot into next.
What is it? it is an apk you can get from the market. It lives on your phone. It doesn't mess with Clockwork and such.
What's the catch? There is something you have to pay attention to...It requires a connection to the market to verify it's authenticity. So, whenever you add a new rom, you need to connect it to the market...the trick: you need to flash gapps right after you flash a rom before you boot into it.
What If I forgot to flash gapps?!? No big deal. If you boot into a rom you installed that doesn't have the market, the BootManager app won't work, so you can't use it to boot back into another rom. They have a solution - boot into recovery and flash the "update.zip" located in the bootmanager>phonerom folder on your sd. Then your phone will reboot into your internal phone rom.
What's the catch, part 2? Some roms have custom scripts that run when they boot, so they don't play well, especially when installed on the SD card.
What else do I need to know? Rom installs take longer. After installing, the roms on the sd card do not lag. You can back up the roms that you install through the app.
This is a dream for people who want to play with nightlies or try a bunch of roms, but need their old-reliable come Monday morning. Check it out!
There is more discussion on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1189459
Disclaimer: I have no affliliation with Init 2 Win It. I just love this app.
I'll start with a question, too. I put BAMF3.0 rc 4.9 in an SD slot. When I boot in, everything works except Titanium Backup can't find root. Anyone else have this problem?

Interesting. I'm having a similar problem with MyBackup Pro. The app would request SU permission but then it never acknowledged that it had it. I also had BAMF 3.0 Rc 4.9 running off SD

I haven't tried the MIUI yet. It might be another with a custom boot script.
You could try to install it as the internal phoneROM and see if it works. If it doesn't you'll need to restore a nand backup.

ok so maybe someone can help me. im trying to flash CM7 and i flashed it and forgot to flash the GAPPS thing before a reboot. i got back into my original rom and im ready to try it again. i have CM& ready to flash, but how do i flash GAPPS before the reboot? do i do the flash of GAPPS from within bootmanager, rom manager, or hboot? thanks!
Flash gapps through bootmanager just like the rom, in the same slot. Dont wipe anything.

That's why I'm here.
disappointed that the synergy nightlies flashed to a slot put me in a boot loop. but was excited that all i had to do to fix it was flash the update.zip under bootmanager/phone
Maybe I'm missing something but where can I find the gapps zip/ every time I try to boot from the app, its telling me either no Rom installed or no image found
I installed all 3 versions of the recently leaked GB ROM using bootmanager and interesting NONE of them will boot up. Best I can tell from adb logcat is that the ROM does a memory test and the wrong memory type is returned causing a boot loop at that point.
Smells like a bit of copy protection testing going on.
Yea something's not working right with the app... I can't get any Rom to install.....

A lot of the Sense roms fail. I have Monolith running fine.
Hey there, just wondering of anyone else is having the problem of Sd card space going into limbo if the ROM install doesn't go well (i'm talking the install or back up glitches and doesn't finish, not it actually finishing and getting a boot loop. I've tried wiping cache/dalvik cache, all the cleaning functions within the app. Deleting the slots and wiping the slots didn't work either. Like I said it seems to be in limbo, and don't feel like moving all my data off my card and reformatting every time this occurs. Any ideas?
Hey guys,
I love this app. I also had some problems but now I have Gingeritis as my phoneRom and switch between SHIFTS3NS3 and BAMF which are all gb roms.
The trick I found was that if it doesn't load the first time keep trying, it took me about two tries to load SHIFTS3NS3 and about 3 for bamf. Make sure you use ext2.
Also make sure your phone stays awake.
If you have an issue email the Devs they responded to me with in 10 min of the email.
Great app

[Q] No Google Play or app market

Hi Guys,
Ok, I've got an HP Touchpad 16gig. I've installed: CM9 Kernal version 2.6.35-palm-tenderloin (9-20121125-Nightly), Android 4.0.4,
I used Acme Installer3, gapps-jb-20121011.
So far it looks great and the touchpad is a joy to use. I also installed gapps but this is where something is wrong, for the life of me I cannot get Google Play store to work. When I click on the Play Store icon or the 'SHOP' shopping bag icon the app starts to open then it just returns to the page I'm on.
I do have an old Google Play accout that I can still access and see the apps I downloaded last year when I had a Flytouch pad. I also have a current gmail account and Google+ account.
So far I have tried:
Updating apps and ROMs using goo.im
Uninstalling and re-installing the gapps folder using a couple of different versions
Clearing the cache and making backups before making any changes etc.
Now I am very new to this game although I'm computer savvy, if anyone can help me with getting Google Play Store to work then that'd be great but please be gentle with me as I am learning as I go....
Many thanks,
Mark
Clear not only the cache, but also the system and data partitions. Also, make sure your recovery is up to date.

The gapps you should be using for CM9 is 04/29 , below is a link

Try this and you should be good to go, not sure if you have to system wipe or not but the version you used is for CM10 .

Just boot into recovery, wipe data and cache, flash cm9 nightly zip, flash ics gapps zip, then reboot. You'll have to login all over again as everything has been wiped.

Hi guys, many thanks for all the suggestions,
I can enter recovery but then the pad just starts as normal.
I've re-flashed everything but it has just made the touchpad slower and does not respond to touches very well and seems out of calibration.
I still don't have Google Play/Store even though I used gapps 29/04.
Can I completely wipe all traces of Android from the touchpad back to webos (which still works fine) and then I'll pay someone to install Android on the touchpad. I fear if I carry on trying to get this working properly I'll either completely foobar the pad or I'll throw it against the wall.....
Many thanks,
Mark.

A massive thumbs up sstar for helping me out with my problems with googleapps/store etc. He explained a few things to try and now its all working
I also want to thank all the other members that contributed, I wasn't sure of how to do some of the things you suggested but I read and re-read what you all said and it finally sunk in...
I reflashed and installed cLockworkmod to delete all the Android guff and clear the cache etc, then I re-flashed using the latest CM9, ACMEInstaller 3, 6update and 29/04 gapps, it took two attempts but on the second attempt, success!!!
I now have a fully working Android pad with google store and I'm able to install all the apps I previously had on an older Android pad and a few new ones that look tasty and are essential for day to day usage and also give me better control over what I can actually do with the working device.
You guys have made my day.....:highfive:
Cheers, Mark.

Are you wiping cache/dalvik cache when flashing?
Yes, first try wiped cache/davlik, flashed, fixed permissions, then rebooted.
Second try, wiped cache/davlik, flashed, wiped again, fixed permissions, reboot.
Third try, same as first minus fixed permissions.

Maybe try a fresh install of rls2,let it boot,dont change anything in tweaks or setting then flash the theme,wipe dalvik and cache and see if it works then. I flashed it with no problems yesterday so maybe it has something to do with your settings

It's a flashable zip(right) perms should be good. What rls you on. You haven't flash anything else that may cause problems when flashing the theme?

Yes, it's a flashable zip - downloaded from steal25's post in the Tranquil 4.3 RLS2 thread. Running 4.3 RLS2 and everything was fine until today when I flashed the theme (only thing I flashed in recent memory).

At this point, I'll settle for going back to the standard blue theme. So I tried a dirty flash of 4.3 RLS2 (wiping cache and davlik and then a reboot) but it didn't help either. Did that because, like a fool, I didn't backup anything before I flashed the theme. If nothing helps, I try to backup as much data as I can and then do a full wipe - but I would only like to do that as a last resort.

Thanks BD! Tried to post in that thread but I didn't have permissions to do so. Also, PM'ed steal25 and he asked if I could send him a log but when I run logcat all I get is:
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
/sbin/sh: exec: line 1: logcat: not found
He suggested alogcat from the market so I got that a saved a log after a few of those errors. Let me know if I should let it run a bit longer and I'll re-post the log.

By the way, can I attach files to the post instead? If so, where is that option?

Well if you dirty flashed the original rom and it didn't fix the issue, then there really isn't anything anyone could give you to recover from your situation.
Be careful what you back up now as that data could be corrupted. At least I would suggest not to back up any system data.
I would do a clean install and then the theme again before bothering with more logcats.

First, thanks to everyone for their time and suggestions.
Decided to try another launcher (GO Launcher EX), which would buy me time until RLS3 is available. I remembered that I had TI installed and hoped to find a backup of Sense that I made after installing RLS2. Found it, restored it and rebooted and I'm up and running RLS2. There are some things that aren't functioning normally - can't go into Settings/Personalize, every reboot resets my home page, and I'm guessing a few others that I haven't found yet. I was able to make a backup of my Call Log, SMS, MMS, and pictures - the only items I was really worried about anyway - and will wait until RLS3 is ready.
Thanks again for everyone's help!
