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.

I have been browsing google for an answer to this problem but nothing I have found has seemed to help, so I suppose I'll ask and see if anyone else has had this problem had knows what to do.
I try to run a nandroid backup from cyanogen's recovery, it simply keeps making dots and will easily fill up a screen.
Furthermore, i try and do a "nandroid-mobile.sh -b" and it hangs on the data.img part for in excess of 20 minutes.
Any ideas what I can try to get nandroid to work again? It has failed to work both on the last version of SuperD and on the newest which I updated last night (1.11?)
I suppose I could try a full wipe and reinstall, but I haven't donated for the full Titanium backup yet... and restoring is a pain until I do that.
Is there anything besides a wipe that I could try?
Thanks

I have the same issue using Amon Ra's recovery with Nandroid.
I end up pulling the battery and rebooting.
Take a look in your Nandroid backup folder on your SD card....you will see files that are several GB in size.
The nandroid appears to get stuck in a loop.
I have not had a successful nandroid backup made since CM-Recovery. I might go back to it but Amon Ra has a lot more stuff.
I reverted over to Amon Ra recovery from the JF+ Cyan one, and did a full wipe and restore of everything and nandroid was working well after.
Not sure what happened, but its all peachy now. I donated to Titanium backup, and it is the best app I have used... makes me want to switch Roms daily now!

Which Amon_Ra? I had the same issue on 1.5.x and 1.6.2.
Still no joy on nandroid or BART.
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.
Hey everybody,
I have problems to backup my data with Titanium Backup. Everytime I try to Backup everything, my Phone reboots after backuping a few apps.
My Configuration:
ROM: Ramads Deodexed JVP
Kernel: speedmod-kernel-k15h-t21-300hz
MODs: SGSII_AOSP_Icons_TW4_XXJVP + GalaxySIILock_CMW3_XXJVP
anybody same problems, or an idea what can be wrong?
regards
Pretty sure this is because it needs to shut down system apps in order to back them up, what happens after the reboot? does it continue backing up? I may be wrong tho!

after reboot, it does nothing more, titanium backup has stopped there...
sometimes i have to clear cache and dalvik cache that everything is working fine after such an reboot... do you have an idea how i can backup my settings or how i can prevent this reboots?

Did any of that work now? Because I still have the same problem: batch back-ups will always make my phone reboot. Are there any other ways to back-up my phone?
For me the Problem was the TouchWiz 4 launcher I have used. Everytime the launcher get closed due less ram, the whole system freezes and I get reboots.
Solving the problem was as easy as installing another launcher. For me I use ZeamLauncher which is very fast and stable. With TW4 I ever had problems and I dont use it anymore..
Ah, I was using Go Launcher EX. Now I've already formatted my phone and decided to manually reinstall everything. But next time I'll try ZeamLauncher. Thanks!
Hey, I've been running the stock build on my rooted O2X for a while now and tried the CM7 nightly's after having a bad experience with CM7 RC1 a month-ish ago.
I backed up with CWM(via rom manager), and CM7 works fine.
But i don't like how it remaps the external storage and for some other reasons is does not work for me.
So i'm trying to go back and its not working.
It says its restored successfully but boot stays on the LG screen with the progress bar underneath. only a battery pull gets me out, which i have probably done 20 times now.
-It was initially unable to unmount /system, but after i fixed permissions that error was gone but it did not fix the problem.
- I went into advanced restore and did each one separately, they all claim to have worked successfully. but no dice
-I used back2ext3 hoping that was the root of the problem, but no luck there.
i wipe data, cache as well as dalvik every time, but still nothing.
What is up with this? is it possible that my image is corrupted or something? but why is it saying restored successfully?
CM7 nightly installs fine, so im using it in the interim, but its not optimal.
thanks for any ideas.
I bet you have an older version of CWM.
Make sure you're on at least v4 then try restoring.
Nope, im running 4.0.0.9, which is current
My phone will currently not boot bast the CyanogenMod boot screen.
I flashed my phone several months ago to CM10.1 It was the update that patched the "masterkey" bug. I have been using it daily since then with no problems.
Today, I turn my phone on, and it just hangs at the boot animation.
There were no significant changes since the last time it was powered on. I think I installed McPixel from the humblebundle, and uninstalled a game from the playstore called Krog. No setting changes of any significance.
I've tried booting into safestrape and deleting both the cache and the dalvik cache, neither has helped. My stock rom still loads just fine, but i had factory reset it quite a while ago. I do have a backup of the rom from about 40 days ago i can try restoring, but i would love a more nondestructive way to fix this.
Try booting into safestrap, wiping system, cache, and dalvik, then reinstall the ROM and gapps.

0.o wouldn't that be a LOT more destructive than just restoring the old backup?

Nope. You are not wiping data so all your apps, setting, etc will still be there.
the data itself will remain if you just wipe the system, cache and dalvik cache but be sure to reinstall the latest stable build of CM and gapps for it

ah gotcha gotcha...
unfortunately it didn't work.
for troubleshooting's sake, i went ahead and made a backup of the rom in it's non-working state.
i restored my old backup, it boots just fine.
restored borked backup (tested it, still won't boot), wiped cache/dcache, wiped system, installed cm-10.2-20130821-NIGHTLY-maserati.zip and gapps 20130812, wiped cache/dcache again for good measure, then reboot and waited 10 minutes, still won't pass boot logo.
so i figure someting's wrong with Data right? so i rebooted to safestrap and did a factory restore, then wiped cache/dcache, and still won't boot.
so now i'm going at it the opposite direction. restoring the working backup, restoring just the data from the nonworking backup, then upgrading CM/Gapps
rebooting.. and....
blank screen with full backlight. not so much as a CM logo.
i guess for now i am going to restore back to the old backup, update the rom, and go about reconfiguring, unless anyone has any more suggestions?

Yeah, definitely sounds like something in /Data. Only other possible option I can think of would be to use Titanium Backup. It has an option to "Extract from Nandroid backup". It's under the "SPECIAL BACKUP/RESTORE" options. I've never used that option before so I have no idea how or if it would work but might be worth a shot.

wonderful idea, unfortunately TB crashes when i point it at either backup.
buuut i did find Nandroid Manager * ROOT which looks like it might be working.
if you really wanna see if it is the data or not have you tried to
flash 10.2 or whatever you started out with... then restore -just-
the data to the freshly flash system and then do a wipe of all
said caches... I do that sometimes to get a fresh start on my
os itself.. works pretty well. Just do not restore the cache just
the data part. Or restore with MD5 checking... if it doesn't check
out then you know for a fact that the data partition in that specific
nandroid isn't any good :/
