Ok, so I installed cyanogen's latest and greatest, but handcent kept force closing.
First, I uninstalled and reinstalled via market, still force closed.
Then, I uninstalled via manage applications. No problems there.
Went to reinstall from the market, but it says its already installed, with the open/uninstall buttons greyed out. Its definitely not on my phone, and I checked the sd card to make sure it wasn't there either. Any ideas?

The best and easiest way is to reinstall a backed up copy of handcent.
Then you can uninstall/reinstall as you wish from the market
or....
You need to first delete the handcent data folder in /data/data
Then delete /data/data/com.android.vending
reboot
You will need to accept the Market TOS again
The first way is the safest and easiest, but #2 will work with no other alternative.
If you have no backup, and don't want to try step 2, PM me with your email and I'll send a copy of Handcent.

Please help! I want to go through the market.
Noone????
Did you run from terminal:
$su
#fix_permissions
Could help. Not sure.
did you try fix_permissions in console of recovery screen (or via adb in recovery screen)?

I have Recovery-RA-dream-v1.5.2 and i can't write the " _ " in the console with "alt" and "r".
Update and clearing dalvik-cache also didn't help...
Slowly i become desperate with this problem.
It came when I deleted Ndrive, because i wanted to update to newest version...
Oh, i also can't open the setting option "Data synchronization"...
Last time i have deleted some apps in system/apps with root explorer because i wanted to delete amazon mp3 etc.
Have i delete a important app???
How do i fix it without a complete wipe???
Noone idea what i can do???
Update/Reflash of CyanogenMod didn't help and i don't want to wipe all...

RA-Recovery has an option under "Other" called "fix uid mismatch", this is the command you want, same as fix_permissions in cm-recovery. if you cannot type an underscore in RA-recovery console, you should check that thread to see if this bug has been reported, if not you should please report it so it can be fixed. thank you. good luck, just run "fix uid mismatch" under "other" in recovery and let us know if that fixes it...

Can you Log in to Gtalk and Gmail or do you get the same Issues?
I had this In all google apps when I had a google.partner.setup FC. Kept me logged out of my Google account with no way of getting back in (That I could see)
I had to Wipe, Install a previous (older) version, Sign in, and then Reinstall ROM WITHOUT a data wipe. Worked a treat as a work around

Oh yes, i also can't use GMail. When i open it, it come the failure that the process com.google.gapps was aborted...
GTalk have i deleted, such as amazon mp3 etc., with root explorer...
It's possible that i also have deleted an app named gapps... because i haven't gapps in /system/app...
Where do i get it back without wipe and flash???
Where do i get this app???
Ahhh, i reflashed the "devphone_userdebug-ota-14721" image and then the cyanogenmod...
Now market work fine! GMAil etc. also!
Thanks for helping

please edit your first post to you have fixed the problem, thanks

OK, thanks for tip borodin1.
Just want to add this in case anyone runs into same thing. I switched from CM to Super D, I used backup for root users and let it restore everything and had this problem. It may confuse your apps so I had to wipe and reload apps a different way. Market works fine now. Just wanted to throw that in.

You will have to remove it via Titanium Backup. If it still fails to install the APK you'll have to manually log into via adb (or use a terminal emulator) and remove the following:
/system/apps/Swype
/system/lib/libSwype*
That should do the trick. I've just installed a 2.6.x today on my Cappy and it's very nice.
Hi:
I tried to remove via Titanium, that did not work. So, I used Root Explorer and deleted the 2 files. Install was still unsuccessful. So, I used ADB to try to remove, and it says No such file or directory.
Even though I had Swype backed up with Titanium, it will not allow me to restore it, and I am completely unable to install a newer version.
I have searched and can't seem to find the stock Captivate Swype to try to reinstall it.
Any suggestions? I am desperate.
Thanks!

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Not a problem...glad it worked. Sometimes people make things more difficult than they need be.
Could somebody post a short step-by-step on how to do this?
I need some help.
I used root explorer to look for the
/system/apps/Swype
/system/lib/libSwype*
files.
I found the libSwypecore file, but i didn't have any Swype files in /system/apps.
I deleted that file after uninstalling Swype using Titanium Backup. No success and I'm confused about what you mean by copying over the files using with root explorer. When I try to install my new version of swype, it asks if I would like to still install it since it's a system app (I'm guessing Swype is still recognized as part of the system). Then...it says it's unsuccessful.
Also, I can't restore for some reason since Titanium Backup doesn't have the option anymore
Where do you go to download the new Swype?
I have 2.4 currently.

2.6.48.....from axura...but I think docs have updated swype as well?...not 100% sure, dont know of a direct download, might be due to the porting it to other devices and xda crackdown on swype downloads
Sent telepathically using vulcan mind meld app.
I believe the beta is 2.10. I haven't found an easy way to download 2.10 as it is only made available to Sywpe beta users and they aren't taking any more applicants at the moment.
I'm really hoping they make 2.10 more available soon...

I've downloaded a modified version somewhere and I deleted system/lib/libSwypeCore.so and also deleted the other two swype components via TiBu. Rebooted and installed the 2.10 apk fine
Also di11igaf's 2.0.1 rom has swype 2.10 in it
So, I uninstalled with Titanium Backup, deleted /system/lib/Swypecore.so. Rebooted my phone
Now, when i try to install the new Swype version, it initially says
"Replace application
The application you are installing will replace another application. All previous user data will be saved."
Ok and Cancel are my two options
I choose Ok of course, try installing and it says Application not installed.
From what I can tell, it seems like the stock Swype is somehow still recognized?
Edit: Nevermind, I got it working. I pushed/copied the files over.
Installed swype 1.60 version (many language packs including Dutch that I needed) by using the copy paste method. Uninstalling via titanium and removing any swype trace and then trying to install it by tapping the .apk didn't work, it just said install not succesful. Sideloading it via Android Central Sideload Wonder Machine gave me an error stating I did not have enough space (i have more than enough), oh well, at least the copy paste method worked. Renamed the 1.60 swype file to Swype.apk and put it in system/app/ and rebooted and worked... Thanks for the help, can finally (looked for a long time) now swype in dutch!
I tried to install and failed
Everybody here talks about "I copied over and it worked"
What do you copy and over what? Could you be more specific?
Just google swype beta and sign up for it and follow the instructions there.
Hi:
Does anyone have the original swype version found on the captivate? I updated it to a newer version some time ago, with help from this thread, but now (starting today) I am getting a message saying that my trial is over, and the "swype" feature is no longer working.
Please help.
Thanks!
UPDATE: I have found several other versions of swype, and uninstalled, and installed several. I seem to be having the same results. They all install, but the"swype" feature doesn't work, only regular typing works. I still have not found the original Captivate version.
Any thoughts?
Thanks again!
UPDATE: Okay, so I uninstalled all Swype using Titanium, then I went to the Swype website, signed up for the beta, and installed. Voila, it's working perfectly now I just hope this version doesn't eventually give the trial is exipred version eventually.
For those of you who didn't already know, a new Android Market was released today! The Market was updated to v2.2.6. It will gradually roll out to different phones. Those of you who want it now can install it with this easy .apk file.

I installed after deleting the existing market apk. It force closes every time I try to use it. I cannot move it or copy it to system apps. I can put it in either internal memory or on the SD card. I can accept market terms and start it but then it force closes. I tried clearing data, cache and rebooting but same force close every time. I did not delete market updater apk. Any suggestions? I have the original market reinstalled until I can come up with a solution.
Woah, that's a huge change. o.o
I recommend getting the sgs tools app from the market. It has this included now and you don't have to worry about sideloading or moving the apk with a file manager or adv commands. The new market is really nice.
This is my captivate. There are many like it buy this one is mine.
works on cm6.1 beta 3
Worked on Perception 8. Just copied it over to my sdcard and installed it using the normal installer. Thanks man! It looks awesome.

Looks/works well but where's the update all button? Does it only appear only when there are more than one apps to update?

Works and looks great on Captivate and I also suggest using SGS Tools FTW.

New market seems like a step backwards in some ways. I can see the need to reduce the refund time, but 15 minutes is nuts. Also, removing the tabs? That's just a mess.
Bring the tabs back, and make refund time 3 hours, and I'm a happy guy.
I also think it's a step backwards in a lot of ways. Yeah, that nice green design header looks cool... but it dominates the damn screen. Annoying!

Reinstalled new apk via droid explorer and it reappeared, and now search functionality works as expected.

Yea... but you can scroll around and lose the header once you start browsing.
Didn't have any issues after installing it - search feature worked.
Just downloaded straight onto my phone and used the base installer (no droid explorer, astro etc..) and it worked fine.
Also you get the "update all" on the top button under your downloads if you have multiple updates - which I did
Thanks again for this.
My market was working fine (You know what they say... if it ain't broke, don't fix it... I really should have listened) before I tried to add the new Vending.apk
The steps I took were copying the new market to my SD and backing up the old to my SD.
I deleted the old one on /system/app (all using Root Explorer)
Moved the new one to System, renamed it. Changed permissions and rebooted.
On boot, no Market.
Went to restore the old one, rebooted, no market.
Now I try to install the new one in the system/app with the .apk, and it simply says Application not installed.
Any chance I can get the old .apk just in case mine is faulty, or any advice?
Thanks fellas!

Should have thought about clearing Data before I tried anything. But now it's a little too late as I don't have the option to clear out the data. It just won't respond to the key press.
I downloaded the Vending.apk app from the original thread trying to get the market to work on the nook, and it is simply telling me that the Application could not install, again.
I really don't want to have to reset/reroot again, as I have had to do it for 6 units already and I just want to play on my new toy!
Any suggestions?
