I have the latest updates from samsung, and a rooted tab. Recently the camera stopped working. I could open it, but when I clicked on any of the settings, it showed I was touching them, but didn't bring up any menus, the preview screen is completely black, but camera apps from the marked DO work... I'm assuming something happened to my camera.apk?
Also, when I try and attach a file using the email app, I click "attach file" and it saves an email draft then nothing else happens... is it because I uninstalled the thinkfree.apk?
I've read that the camera and email are related... so perhaps that is where my problem lies?
Also, how can I install the camera.apk? I got a backup of it but after uninstalling the old one, I just get "install failed" or whatever...
Thanks!!!
Try a factory reset. Settings, Privacy, factory reset (wipes user data). If it doesnt work. Search this forum it has email app somewhere.
I was hoping to avoid that... oh well. thanks

I have started the rooting of my NC using the auto-nooter-2.12.25.img. I appear to be rooted (mostly). I got youtube but gmail did not sync. I opened up Market and accepted Terms and Service. I have softkeys but tapping any of the soft keys just shows a message "Unable to execute as root". In the Market, the search magnifying glass is grayed out. I have selected an app to DL & it says "starting to download" but doesn't seem to be doing anything. I do have wi-fi on and am connected to the internet. Have no clue what to do from here except somehow I need softkeys to do something other than give that message.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: On rebooting, softkeys now has been allowed superuser permissions & seems to work. Now I can use it to search the Market. But where are the apps I DLed and how do I get to them? They are not showing in "Extras".
Edit-2: I think I've got it. Now have ADW Launcher working. Just a learning curve.

It has been awhile since I rooted. I cant remember if the auto-nooter package came with the old or new market(I think it was the old). Seems like I had issues at first and upgraded to the new. May try to clear the market cache first. Here is a thread on the new market.

You need to reboot before it shows up in extras. Or install a different launcher and it shows up instantly.
Can you use Google Talk? If the app is stuck at downloading, most likely you can't connect with Google Talk. Open up ports 5222 and 443 on your firewall and see if it works.

Same issue with Meridian Pro player, the widget would make it crash.
Deleting the widget, clearing application data, then re-adding the widget fix it.
Note that clearing the application data makes it forget your unlock code for the pro version. Make sure you have a copy of your code before clearing the data.

Annoying amazon mp3 app is still there!
Can't access to Google Voice app (no more icon). The application appears as installed in the market. Can't open / uninstall from the list of applications (appears in grey in all apps list).
Anyone have the Trillian 1.0.145? (final beta before it went to market)
Seems to be the only app not working for me, never completes log in.
Not really an issue, but I.was so much hoping for copy/paste to work in gtalk but I still can't copy in gtalk.

Do you really need to keep evangelizing CM? This is XDA, we know about CM7. If we wanted to be running it we would be already.

Yeah, me too.
Just close the Market and then re-open and you're back at the new one. You may need to kill Market in app management, or just wait a couple of minutes to go back in.

Mine does if I have more than one update - as the market always has had since Froyo. (Unless one of the updates has changed permissions - those you must approve one by one.)
Stock rom, still nothing from google. Seems like the server flakes out when trying to verify my device. No fancy hacks really. Wish I knew why. Tried everything I can think of so far. Even did a wipe and no go. Irritating to say the least.

Same boat here. Stock rooted, all bloat installed. Only mods are the atrix camera and modified local hosts file. I even reverted the local hosts file but got nowhere. The only other market I have is amazon and it does not matter if it is installed or not. It also does not matter which version of the market I have installed.

Just noticed the same problem here
I tried installing the camera app from the leaked version but it didn't go through, so when I renamed the original stock camera app back I noticed it stopped working.
Currently I have the my apps screen spinning.
I've got an XT860.
Same problem here
Same problem here. Stock, rooted. My Apps has had a blank screen for days. Cleared Market data and cache. No help.
I don't know who to even contact for support. Any thoughts?
Have any of you tried this:
settings->applications->manage applications
Find "Market" and tap it
If there is one, tap the button at the top "Uninstall updates"
Does that fix this problem?

I found that if you take out your SD and clean market/storage service fixes. Bad news is when you put back SD, it breaks again.
I just checked mine, all's good. There's got to be a common factor here... just needs to be found
Just a thought.
Make sure everything in your google account page is set to sync.
Settings->accounts-> you gmail account.
Try the online market. Sign in and see if your apps show up there. If it does, would say it something on phone, if not something with the account.
Hope it helps

I have 2 Accounts ... one account shows the apps ... the other jumps to a screen where i can select Apps or Games ... pressing one of these buttons brings me back to a new instance of a market ... not displaying the apps or games.

My Samsung Apps icon shows a "1" on the top right corner, which means that one of the apps has an update. It turns out to be the eBook app which I never could successfully install, and it turns out that I can't update it either!
Is there anyway I can remove the notification or delete that app from the list of downloads (in the Samsung app, click on the left menu button > my page > downloads). It has a history of all the Samsung apps that I'd previously downloaded, even the ones I've deleted. I tried clearing the cache of the app and force stopping but it didn't help. Even turning off New application notification doesn't help, neither does wiping my cache and dalvik.
I'm pretty sure there must be a folder somewhere where I can tinker with all these information. Does anyone know?
I am using Titanium Backup to freeze and delete all kind of apps.
The ebooks app doesn't even show up in Titanium, so I can't freeze it.

I do have the same "1"!!
tried to solve it but no luck
I had the same issue as you, and updating to the latest firmware solved the problem. I'm now on DXLC2, and SamsungApps maintains a history of what I have downloaded before, and also shows the ones currently installed. It no longer thinks that I've installed the Ebook app (which hanged halfway) and tells me there's an update.
If you're not rooted, the Kies way *may* work, as another poster mentioned from another thread. I don't know as I'm rooted so I can't verify that. But after you've connected your phone in Kies, on the top right of the screen, you should sign in, then go to MyDownloads. Do let us know if this works, as I'm curious too.
I think Changing samsung account will be final option.

I tried that, but it didn't work. Annoying, I know. Someone mentioned wiping the SD card, which I haven't done yet, and no longer need to since upgrading of firmware helped.
BTW, I posted in the wrong thread (Which is why "I wrote I had the same issue as you"); there was someone else who started another thread about this issue after me, and I'd meant to reply to that one!

Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesn't work either. The issue here is a Samsung app that shows as having been downloaded, when it hasn't (e.g. stopping the installation before it finishes). So it doesn't even show in my app drawer. Anyway, I suppose the issue has been fixed, though I can only guess at how to clear the history of installed apps which still shows up.
I had same problem...change the samsung account helps me, hope it helps you to
Wondering if anyone else is having this problem. I got my Nexus 4 (Yeah!), started it up, logged into my google acct, everything started downloading/restoring from google. I checked out the Messaging app and settings, and noticed a "group messages" setting. Sweet!!! But then I got a system update notification. I obviously installed it. After installing it, I used gobackup pro to restore my messaging threads. NOT THE APP, just the threads. Checking the settings again, the "group messages" setting was gone! Just gone! Not sure if it was the system update, or the thread restore, but I am perplexed. I've done 2 factory resets since, but the setting is still gone. Messaging ver. is 4.2-57622 or something like that (don't have the phone with me at the moment.) I'm guessing it had to do with the system update, and that is why it's still not there after the factory resets, but, I really have no idea. I am stock, no root, or unlocked bootloader. Stock, pure stock (the reason I bought a nexus device). Any help or related info would be greatly appreciated! I've searched everywhere, and seem to be the only one with this issue. Any screenshots of anyone else's messaging settings running that app version would help too. Thanks
You'd probably get more help if this was in the Q&A section.

Man, I'm confused. I have no idea what happened. The group part is totally omitted from mine. I've tried to reinstall the app, but can't get very far without root. Thank you for the screenshot. At least I know that the setting isn't just hidden in the Ota update.
Have you tried the reset settings to default option? Or clearing the data for the messaging app?

Yeah, done both. One thing someone just said in another thread, isit may be carrier dependent, and the OTA update hides the setting unless your carrier supports it. Being as I have only played with the phone on wifi just to make sure I am happy with it and don't want to return it,(as it is a christmas present ) I'm starting to wonder if that is my problem. I have no sim installed, so the settings may be hidden until you pop a sim in and the phone recognizes that your carrier supports it.
