Market issue with aospCM7 - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

first off, I've seen fixes for this (I think) but I don't understand what they are saying to do...and whether or not it is a fix for my problem. Been working on this for a couple of hours now and no mas.
So, I have the latest versions of aospCM7, gapps, and clockwork. ( at least I think I do, I dled them all tonight.)
I followed the instructions at the aospcm7 wiki from stock.
The rom runs seemingly fine until I go into the market and try to dl an app (specifically either titanium back up pro or rom manager). Then it will dl and say it has successfully installed then app and immediately force closes. The app does not show up in the drawer, and the force close message pops up randomly afterwards. I have tried a simple reboot, alltheway down to reflashing the rom w/ gapps twice now and trying to reflash gapps alone. As well as re dling the file and replacing the gapps file and reflashing it.
If anyone knows of a solution to this and can explain to me how to execute said solution it would be very appreciated. Btw, this is my first root/ rom so I'm still a super noob Be gentle? lol
EDIT: And now that I tried reflashing them together one more time I'm stuck in a bootloop....
EDIT2: Am now restored back to stock thanks to nandroid back up. thank god. Anyways, I'd still like to figure ou the issue and give it another go ,so if anyone can shed some light, please do.

You using Firerat?

The fixes never worked for me. A few downloads then I had to apply the fixes again and reboot.

I feel ya. What I had to do was recovery, fr recovery, install ROM, fr boot, load the ROM, use the terminal fix, recovery, gapps, fr boot, boot the ROM and skip the automatic search that Google tries to do.

Then virtually the same mess of events to nand restore after a prl update for mms. Too much bs...

Try deleting the market updater apk.
Yea Its Me Again With the
Modified Hero

Thanks for all of the replies guys. I restored back to stock and reflashed the rom this morning and re downloaded and flashed gapps. Everything seems to be running just fine.
Now if I can just figure out how to use htc sync to get my contacts back it'd all be gravy lol.

Why not sync contacts to gmail? Much easier.

I suppose I could/ should have done that...How exactly would I go about doing that?
Edit: ok I did that, but I'm missing numbers for a vast majority of them...
Ninja edit, nvrmind. Thanks for the help!

When you have your contacts all setup and you're logged into your Google account, just go to Settings > Accounts & Sync > your Google Account > tap Contacts.

Thanks man, I've got it all sorted now.

Irritating Market issue

I received my phone back a few days ago and I instantly flashed Cyan 5.0.6 test 3.
However I have a really annoying issue where my Market isn't quite 'correct'.
It seems to be missing the 'top paid' tab.
It also takes an age to load the info for any app I click on and the status stays at 'installing' even though it is installed and it will only refresh when I reboot.
I have tried to restore the backed up propriety apps, nandroid backup and restore, flashed a stock rom, flashed cyan 5.0.1
But NOTHING works.
I know the slow market is related to the missing tab, it's like half of the market app hasn't loaded properly.
I had this issue before my phone went off for repair and one day it fixed (I don't know how) but as soon as it did, it performed as it should and it took seconds to load app data and install, it also stated the app was installed.
I suppose what I'm looking for is HOW can I completely reload the Market from scratch?
Thanks guys.

Wow that is so weird... I assume you do wipe/cache/dalvik before flashing a ROM right? Have you tried cyan 5.0.6 yet? If not, give it a try, do the wipe before flash of course, and hope that works... Also, do you have a backup app? like titanium back up or back up pro? Did you set it to auto restore perhaps? Probably just a bad market back up? Thats all I can think about... If it doesnt work, then its beyond me brother

Hi Man,
I know it's really bugging me.
I've tried everything including wiping the Dalvik and normal cache.
I think I might try Enomer's ROM to see if that solves it but I can only tether at the moment as we've moved house and I won't have BB back for 2 weeks.
I have Titanium pro installed as I have over 400 apps on my phone!
Hey bro,
Apparently there have been a few reports about the same issue with the market, probably has something to do with the market update. Anyway, try uninstalling the market via titanium if you can that is. And reinstall. Nandroid before doing it.

Resetting gmail or factory resetting rooted NC?

Stupid question, but is there anyway to factory reset an internally rooted nook? I don't even really want to reset it, I just need to make my primary email something else so I can sell it without having someone have access to my email account through android market.
Thanks.
I had this problem too, except I used a friends backup to flash my new one, and tried the factory reset option, which just rebooted the device, and nothing else..
I ended up having to reflash it with a clean ROM..
What about removing gapps data and cache and then flashing gapps again? Just thinking out loud here.. no guarantees..

I read to do that in the net, too, but as weird as it sounds, I can't find google apps in the list of apps in my manage applications section of settings.
There's no 'gapps' application. You need to find market, gmail, Google framework, etc..
Sent from my NookColor using Tapatalk
Sorry for the dumb response with the gapps thing. I went ahead and cleared the data on all those google programs, email, gmail, market etc. Anything else I need to do? I really don't know what you guys mean by 'reflash'. Sorry... but thank you!
Ok, good news guys. I got both "email" and "gmail" to completely forget about me. Bad news , the option to clear data on the market is completely greyed out. So I can't seem to get rid of my data on there, and it stills allows me to buy apps on the market. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the help so far!
EDIT: MAJOR problem!
I tried putting in the Clockwork recovery IMG and the new version of the stock os, but it seemed to boot normal. I tried rearranging the files, but now when I try to book the NOok up, card or no card, it does nothing . Did I just brick this ?
Certainly not.. format the SD and burn the cwr img again.
Just check that you do it right, it has been explained thousands of time on the forum.

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!

Stock V9 Calendar app

Hey Guys. I.M.famous here again.
For those of you who do not like the baked in cm7 calendar in Broken Out 2.0, I have packaged a flashable zip to replace the calendar with the stock v9 verizon/LG Calendar app.
Of course as usual,
boot to recovery,
flash zip
reboot
Also, I'm not responsible for anything that may happen.....blah, blah, blah.
Note**** If you are having issues with the calendar FC'ing, try clearing the apps cache first. [Settings, manage applications, all apps]. then if that doesn't work, try flashing this file.
Hope everything works. Enjoy.
Any issues, Holla!!!!!
Thanks. I hated the calendar that was in the From.

I just flashed this after having tried a manual reinstall by placing the apk into /system/app. I was getting FC when trying to open the calendar and after flashing this the result is the same. The cache is listed as empty and I cleared the app data after flashing it just in case. Any idea of how to get this to work? Thanks for putting together a clean way to replace all the files needed for the Calendar.

IDK. I've flashed this plenty of times on a few different revo's with no issues. I'll check a few things and see what I can do. Does the widget work?

The widget works, as in appears. Though it is unable to pull any calendar information as is my other calendar widget. If nothing obvious comes to light, at this point I'd be willing to just reflash BO in case I broke something and then do your tidy little fix on top.
if you can, I suggest trying to rip BO's calendar and push it to your phone just to see if it's the apk or maybe a system issue. if it works, then it would seem to be an apk issue. If it doesn't work then I would reflash bo and re setup any tweaks then flash this zip. IDK. Imma keep tinkering and see what I can find. Might be a little later today, the JOB is calling my name.

After doing that the Calendar is still complaining. So I'll just reflash BO 2.0 and do it all in one fell swoop.
Edit: Update: So I did all that and still no go. It's complaining that sync is not currently working (for all my gmail accounts) and will be back shortly. I'm tempted to just do a .tot restore and go from absolute scratch when I get home, but that's really a pain.
Another Update: Something is out of whack on my phone, and I'm most likely to blame. Even reflashing BO 1.1 won't restore calendar functionality. .tot restore and go from scratch is in order I guess.

Need help on recent rooted+CM9 rom

Hi. I'm having a really big problem and a hard time trying to get my phone back to how it was. I was able to do a backup with CWM rom manager before i flashed to CM9. The reason why i want to go back to the ROM that came with my phone is because i'm not able to mount my SD card. I tried it in the recovery reboot menu. I mounted everything, then when it reboots, i go into settings and try to mount both the external SD and the internal SD card, The external one mounts, but i still can't see anything from it. And the internal never mounts.
So i did use the back up utility, and now when i go to restore, It says that the MD5 checksum aren't matching up or something. I'm also scared because it says that the battery is not charging. I've turned the phone off and am letting it charge now to see if it'll charge. But it was down to 11%, And i'm starting to get scared cause i might be without a phone. :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
How can i wipe CM9 and go back to the ROM that came with my samsung 4g exhibit II when i got it? this is what it was before;
exhibit ii 4g
sgh-t679
android 2.3.6
kernel 2.6.35.7-perf (I didn't upgrade this)
build #: gingerbread uvle1
P.S. After i rooted it and flashed it into the root_kit. I then flashed it into "cm-9-20121125-UNOFFICIAL-ancora_tmo". So this is the rom that's giving me the problem. I really hope someone understands what's going on and can help me. I just want to go back to how it was before. And 1 more thing. I can only browse the sd card through wondershare mobilego for android. All my files are still there, But i can't see them on the phone, Just through USB connection.
Thank you so much
:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Go into cwm wipe system 3 times dalvic cache and so on, then restore, or you can just do a clean install of the ROM you wish.

Oh wait, Something good happened. I read somewhere else that i might have to format the internal sd card. I just did that and now i'm able to see my external sd card. all my music and pics are here. Hmmm, weird... now i'm going to try and backup the texts and logs that i saved from mobilego. but i still might want to go back to the factory rom because the screen was bigger.
I just can't flash the gapps .zip file. It says that it can't open and then it just says (bad). So i can't connect my google account to my droid as it stands.
Download gapps again. And flash, Do not restore system apps, only do user apps

I upgraded to CM10. Now the gps doesn't work. also the usb connection doesn't work so i can't load the cm9 i don't think. If i wipe the ROM, will that load it back to the factory one? or will it make my phone useless?
Update: Ok, I'm able to connect via wifi with Mobilego. Should i upload root-stock.zip and flash that so it can go back to gingerbread (or whatever the ROM is called that is the basic one that was on before i changed?)
Update 2: I'm just having a problem with GPS. in google maps (a program i do use a lot), Is not able to get my current location. I wonder if anyone else is having this problem from CM10

Root-stock.zip will not get you back to gingerbread. You should read the t679 XDA wiki. Five or six times even.
maybe i should try doing this when i'm sober...

Ok look, a general rule of thumb whenever you are installing a new rom, do a full Rom wipe = Factory Reset. Then flash your new rom. Then proceed to install the necessary Gapps. Then clear cache and dalvik cache. Then fix permissions. Then your set. The only time you can install a rom over another rom is if its an update, from the exact same rom and same os.
Soooo happy with CM10

I This I clear the cache, dalvik cache (and maybe even data). I wiped everything in that menu except ROM and system. It was my first time working with this. I did it in less then a week of lightly reading about it. I'll make sure to remember that man.
Thanks
:good:
P.S. I LOVE CM10. This ROM is just phenomenal. I couldn't believe my eyes when i went from Android 2.3.6 to Android 4.1.2. This site has helped me a lot. Please are very friendly and i appreciate that a lot.
Thanks once again, this site is very helpful.
