[Q] Games FC - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Until yesterday, i was running cm7 on my captivate.
Today i switched to darky 9.5.
Before I flashed darky I did a backup of all user apps+data.
After I got darky i restored missing apps+data.
Everything was fine until I realized that all my games would just force close right when I open it...
I tried to solve it by uninstalling, downloading again then restoring data only but it still force close.. I also tried reflashing...
My games do work if I just restore the app. And all my other apps are fine.
Anyone know what the problem is?

You created your backups on a Gingerbread-based ROM and restored them on a Froyo-based ROM. The saved data is probably not compatible even though the program is.

That explains it thanks.. Anyway I played so much game today to catch up.....

[Q] Issues with app installation in ALL Roms?

I've installed the newest 2.2.1 GOT, and I've tried allmost all the rom's in this forum. I'm constantly faced with an issue with Titanium Backup freezing. My next step was to just install the apps all over again from the market... however, now I'm faced with some apps downloading but cannot install. i.e Angry birds, Time Mobile to name a few.
Obviously this cannot be an issue with all roms, but perhaps my phone or a botched installation... but how can it be a botched installation for ALL roms?
Can anyone provide me with some suggestions where I can solve this issue?
I'm currently using a Telus Milestone with Cyanogenmod.
Hey there, I would advise you to flash the 2.2.1 SBF once again using RSD Lite and then try, dont use the Stock 2.2.1 GOT ROM it hogs battery.... I am using Cronos 1.5.0 and it works lyk a charm......
Problem with titanium bakcup is, it also recovers data i think. You need to restore only APK if you change from different ROM. I use Google backup option, that reinstalls all apps when i log in, simple.. But you could also use MyBackupPro.
For example SMS restore with titanium backup worked fine with 2.2.1 - 2.2.1 changes in ROM, but when i cahnged to 2.1 it couse FC all the time...
Again MyBackupPro saved me, it has a backup tehnique, that is not dependant on version of SMS application.

[Q] Multiple foce closings

I rooted this cappy, and flashed darky's rom. A week later, got Launcher Pro fc issue. Was just gonna uninstall and reinstall LP, no biggie. But then TiBu started fc. Then I flashed back to stock and flashed the rom again this time with wipe.. When the phone booted up, multiple fc issues. So, I installed Serendipity rom...Two days later, all fc issues returned, cannot call, text, anything. Help please! I am going to flash back to stock for now.
Are your fc from start, or are you restoring first? When you go to stock, are you doing s master clear?
No master clear, just wipe then flash with CWM. Ive done 5 cappys the exact same way, this one seems to not want to play well....
Are you restoring any system data with Tibu? If so don't do that. Only restore user apps.
That's the only idea I have right now, hope it helps.
I am not restoring system data, thanks for the help.

[Q] "Application is not installed on your phone" Error

Hi all,
I've done a search on this (both XDA-wide, and Google) and no-one seems to have a valid answer for me yet.
I am running Gingerbread (PDA = XWJVB, Phone = XXJVK, CSC = XAJVK) via a Doc's beta RomKitchen build. I am aware that I am running a beta and things can get a bit hairy, but this problem is really annoying.
Basically after the rom flash, I went and got Titanium Backup working again, and started restoring my favourite apps and widgets. All worked fine, then I had to do a reboot for some reason. All the restored apps are still in the apps folder , but greyed out and with an SD-card image overlaid to tell me they are on the SDCard. They ALL no longer work but give the "application is not installed on your phone" error, which is annoying, because before the reboot, they all worked.
I have tried twice to restore them from Titanium backup, and each time they only work until the next reboot breaks them, meaning the only apps I get to keep are the system apps and the ones I cooked into the Rom.
Anyone have any ideas?
Anyone at all?
Hi, I had a similar problem, with one difference: it started after a while. I had Doc's JVK installed, I restored my apps with Titanium Backup and it worked flawlessly for a while. At some point I noticed that the apps installed recently would disappear after a reboot. The worst thing is that even the market disappeared at some point.
To solve the problem, I flashed several times a WIPE version of Doc's rom along with several wipes from recovery. It didn't work right away and it took me several reflashes.
No problems since then.
Cheers
Thanks for that.
After much reading, I reckoned it was probably the Fugu kernel doing most of the damage, so I flashed a Chainfire XWJVB kernel, then a recooked Doc rom without the Fugu kernel. Lubberly Jubberly now

[Q] Severe Unsolvable Lag Problem

Hi everyone,
I have an i9000 and ive tried out many different roms, never even soft bricked it, i have experience with odin etc so i pretty much know what im doing and am not a n00b. i was on darky v10 rc6 and when i upgraded to the stable 10.1 everything seemed fine, but i the impossible game starting lagging really badly, when it never had before, however the rest of the phone functioned perfectly. i tried enabling and disabling the lagfixes. i went over to gingerreal, back to a froyo ROM from docs kitchen, and finally just flashed back to unrooted gingerbread from samfirmware. each time, i wiped the data and the cache, and installed nothing but a fresh copy of the impossible game from the market, and made sure no other tasks were running, but every time, the only issue i could find was that the impossible game lagged. when i got back to stock, i thought i had solved it as it played fine for a few minutes, but the next time i loaded it up it started lagging again. note: i am not this anal about the impossible game, im just worried its symptomatic of a bigger problem with the phone. do you have any suggestions of how i can fix this issue? thanks so much for you help.

I know it's a pain but maybe try connecting your phone to your PC and formatting the phones SD before flashing, could be clogged up with old files? Just a suggestion I could be wrong
I always format the SD through windows before a new ROM as doing it through CWM doesn't seem to remove a lot of the android folders + files - Could be slowing it down, as I said though, I'm no expert
try hard reset may be?
Update: I formatted the internal SD, external SD, took out the sim and external SD, wiped all data, reflashed stock then flashed 10.1 darky resurrection (odin package) this was all while fully charged. without putting back in the sim or external SD i did nothing but redownload the impossible game, and just like before, it started off fine but after 1-2 plays the lag came back. any ideas at all? this is so weird.

[Q] some games no longer work after flashing custom rom

Don't know if it's the android version or the Rom itself, but since flashing orio one to upgrade to 4.2.2 neither final fantasy 3 or shadowgun work for me. I backed up the apps using titanium backup and copied the data folders from android/obb to pc then back after flashing and when.I try to load the game it asks to download.data, I click yes and it fails every time.
Any ideas on what's happened? Should I try resetting then reinstalling, or what? They both worked perfectly fine on the.stock 4.1 Rom.
