location problem at Froyo, please help

i cant use wireless network for location any more when i updated to froyo.
for example, i get "waiting for location" "your current location is temporarily unavailable" .
any ideas?

Did you update the radio when you flashed froyo?
I've had this issue on previous roms but not yet on froyo.
When this happens to me and a gps on/off doesnt fix it; I reboot the phone.

I've had that issue, but a wipe fixed it. It was about time for a wipe anyway...

i wiped cache/ dalvik cache, no luck.
wipe data? means i have to reinstall all the apps reset all the setup?

i tried something.
wipe data, no luck
reflash the froyo, no luck
wipe data and reflash Froyo, it works!
restore to previous CM505, it works!
restore to CM505, and flash Froyo, no luck........
what should i do if i want to keep my data and Froyo ?

I'm having the same problem. Came from CM5.0.6, no wipe, just flashed froyo and pretty much everything works (sweet!) except network location provider. GPS is fine. Network location just always times out.
Just like dirwdirw I'd like to keep my app data and settings; anyone figured out anything we can reset to make this work w/o wiping?

Use Titanium Backup. I made a thread in the apps forum asking for what could be moved and not have those issues. I didn't get answers but I did find it for myself and posted there.

My location doesn't work with launcher pro, only with the stock launcher.

Same here... Froyo on N1, and havent found any clue yet.
If someone has it, please share!

same here!
im starting to get really worried, i just read that FRF50's radio its official, and my cel sucks with it...

Just updated to FRF83 using Modaco's <android.modaco.com/content/google-nexus-one-nexusone-modaco-com/311896/24-jun-frf83-stock-rooted-deodex-superboot-repacks> update+root+insecure, still the same!
I really don't get why it's not working!

Yep, same problem here with Froyo. Had it with FRF50 and now with FRF83. I'm unable to have a location without GPS.
I did a complete wipe then flash, but nothing changed.

That solved it for me though. You're talking about a full wipe right? Cause indeed, dalvik wipe doesn't solve this issue.

Yes, a full wipe, a factory reset.
Will do it again... I may be lucky this time.

From the settings menu, or from recovery? From the menu it never worked for me.
I think I'll wait for CM6, wipe, and install it. It's too annoying to manually set the position of the weather widget.

From Recovery.
But I've just finished wiping and flashing again... and it works !
It didn't work when flashing FRF50. But when flashing FRF83 after a wipe, it's ok.
Thank's !

Backing up texts

I'm flash happy but every time I do all my text history is gone. Where are those kept so I can save them between roms?

You will lose them unless you back them up. I use sms backup+ from the market. It links your messaging app with gmail so you can back up and restore.

If you use Titanium Backup, your texts are automatically backed up when you do a full system data + apps backup. You can restore them manually from the Backup/Restore tab of TiBu (it's one of the items in green, I forgot which one exactly). Just make sure you don't choose to restore all system data with TiBu or you might mess up your ROM and have to reflash. You'll have to reboot your phone after the restore for your texts to show up.

+1 SMS backup + is really easy and works flawless for me.

Don't use titanium backup to restore texts. Often it will cause force closes that require a reflash to fix depending on which roms you are moving between.

You could just change roms without using odin or clearing like I do, heh.

And this also isn't a best way to install a ROM. Yeah it works, but you also can run the risks of a bad install. I think we'll all agree, the last thing we need is more threads regarding constant force closing or soft-bricked phones.

I REALLY like SMS Backup+. I have automatic backups set, and since everything gets backed up to my Gmail account, that's one less thing I need to remember to copy off the phone before a ROM flash.

You shouldn't have to use odin but I agree. Definitely clear cash and data.
I don't think we should be recommending odin one click to everyone because it can harm the newest build of captivates. It's also very unnecessary.

I disagree. Bad ROM installs usually mean fc's, isolated problems and maybe stuck at boot screen. If that happens, simply wipe data+cache and try again. Flashing back to stock on the other hand--if something goes wrong, you're looking at a soft-brick (requiring a jig on some Captivates), worst-case-scenario, your bootloader is corrupt and you hope you know someone with a JTAG.

Unable to download from Google App Market

Hi guys,
I have recently downloading the new Cyanogenmod for the Milestone, and although its a pretty good mod, I haven't been able to download things from google market. I have installed GAPPS when it was required, and I can navigate the market fine, it even picks up my bought purchases. However, when I click on download,it says that it is downloading but the bar doesn't move. I;ve reflashed and rebooted numerous times but that doesnt seem to have fixed the problem. I was wondering if any of you had experienced the same thing and if so, how could I fix it?
I have plenty of space on my phone and my SD card too so I can't see where the problem lies.
update, I have looked around a little, and it may be a problem that I cannot connect to googletalk server. Anyone know how to resolve this?
Also, switching from wireless to 3g to 2g doesn't seem to help either.

Having the same problem with my X10! Will show updates for my existing apps but when I click on them to update it just states that they are downloading and they never update! I have power cycles the phone, stopped the update, installed the Google market updates and tried again, still the same result!
I have a rooted X 10 with 2.1.
Anybody else having the same problem?

totally weird, but everything seems to be in working order now. I didn't do anything at all either.

I had to connect to flashtool and reload the os to get it working again!
Tried finding just the market .she file but wasn't sure which one was the one that was messed up! Didn't want to make it worse so just flashed the whole OS

i faced the same problem too, i've been coping with this for about 2 months on CM6 and now it's kinda getting in my nerves. I can't download from the Market and it's annoying when i want to download some apps in a big hurry. I see that i'm not the only one facing this problem, but may i ask for help here? what can i do to fix this problem? you have my thanks

Did you try flashing the OS again or reloading the CM6 ROM? Mine has been working fine since I flashed my OS again.

Wipe data, then flash the ROM. Google Apps you need to wipe both cache partition and dalvik cache AFTER flashing the ROM.

Having the same problem here, with froyomod.
With cm7 i didn't have any problem at all. Maybe because i flashed 2 weeks ago..

Having the same problem from many days and also cm7 is laggy although I still use it. Somebody recommend something please.

I used to have this problem after extendend periods without a wifi connection... it seemed like my purchases would only download on wifi, whereas free apps would d/l on cellular networks

I do have Market problems from time to time, being unable to download. I've try pretty much everything but nothing helped, except: waiting! If apps fail to download constantly, they'll do just fine the next day ...
It seems that the Market has internal problems that cause this. Also I have this behaviour once in a while: viewing "my apps" in the Market will sometimes (!) only show me the Google Apps (Maps, YouTube, etc.) and all the ones that I purchased but *no* free apps at all.
Same again: waiting some time will restore the original (and correct) list.

I think that might just be the limitations of the Gapps we flash. I get those same issues, but a simple reboot fixes everything, nothing to worry about!

[Q] Pinnacle 1.2: random reboots?

Just flashed a few days ago and really enjoying this rom. As a lurker newb, I particularly appreciate the careful and exact instructions. Thanks!
Since there doesn't appear to be an "official" q&a thread for Pinnacle (and I don't have enough posts to ask in development):
I've been getting occasional random reboots since flashing to Pinnacle. Haven't had this with other roms. It doesn't happen while the phone is idle (to my knowledge), just sometimes when I'm doing something (but never the same thing twice). Is this a memory issue? Bad flash?
I searched the development thread and saw a couple of similar issues mentioned but no suggestions are offered...

Are you using TW launcher?

You have to tell more than that bud. When does it happen? Does it happen on fresh pinnacle flash without any TiBU restore whatsoever?

Sorry, new at this. I haven't tried it on a fresh flash without TiBu. Would it work to wipe cache and data or should I re-flash, too?
Edit: I'm using the Samsung Home launcher

yea do this
1. Try reflashing and use without TiBU for a couple of hours.
2. If you still have the problem then I am sorry my friend your phone hates TW4 launcher which is "Samsung Home"

Alright, I'll give it a try and report back. I can live without TW4 launcher if it means keeping the rom.

Haven't tried re-flashing yet, but I switched my launcher to ADW and haven't had a reboot since. Thanks!

Tranquil 4.3 RLS2 - Trouble w/ Theme

Flashed the Red Theme and now the "unfortunately, HTC Sense has stopped" displays endlessly. I can bypass it by using the shortcuts on the lockscreen but can't get to the homescreen or app drawer after. Tried re-flashing twice but with no change. Any tips?

have you tried fixing permissions within twrp?

Yes, tried that - no change.
Also, tried downloading again and flashing after verifying MD5 matched.

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.
Fourth try, same as second 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!
