Need some help with an error. I've seen a couple of posts about this, but no one was giving their situation/phone info to make any help effective. So, here goes.
I got a new SD card (bigger, and class 6). I used Backup (root) from the Market to save everything, partitioned my SD card, upgraded the partition to ext3, wiped my phone, re-installed Cyanogen's 4.2.13 (I use apps2SD) and the Community Hero Mix Theme (Reg Launcher and Stericsson's Lock Screen). Also reset the Radio Image, and have 2.22.19.261. Restored everything with the Backup app, then re-booted.
All apps are installed (successfully tested about 20). After Auto-Sync, I turned off syncing and ran fix_permissions, then re-booted. Gmail app's cache was cleared on a whim.
Now, whenever I go to download a Market update, I get the com.google.process.gapps Force Close. Unable to update any apps, although the whole list is there. Nandroid restore fixes everything, but I noticed my phone running MUCH faster after the wipe, so I'd like to get this figured out. Have tried the above process 3 times, but no success. And, like they say, Insanity is trying the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results.
you should start fresh anyway and next time please here

After wipe prob should be gone.
Next time, please post your questions in the Questions and Answers forum.
Moved.
After wipe prob should be gone.
Um, unfortunately that's a no. The wipe seems to be causing the problem. As I said, I've re-done this whole process 3 times. Every time I come back from the wipe, I have the force close. Only nandroid gets rid of the problem. And nandroid returns the lagginess issues.
Could try another rom like dwang or superD1.2 and see if you get the same errors.. I was getting gapps forceclose and tried many times finally I tried another rom "superd" and been happy since then! Stable and greeat speed
You just need to uninstall market updates in settings --> manage applications.
By the way, I would suggest not using backup for root users, usually the work required to come back from that is the same as from a fresh wipe.

I'm very familiar with manage applications uninstalls, however, the Market Updater app does not give un-install as an option. I can Clear Data, Clear Cache, Clear defaults (these three are grayed out), or I can Force Stop, which doesn't seem to do anything. Any other ideas?
New Symptom
As a result (I'm sure) of changing SD cards when the old one had all of my apps on it, I have about 10 apps that were protected that did not transfer by the Backup process. My phone thinks I have them, the Market thinks I have them, but I can neither uninstall them (option grayed out in the Market and they are non-existant in the Manage Applications menu), nor can I update them (as the Market seems to think I already have them). The shortcuts are of course broken, and the "Open" button in the Market is also grayed out.
Any ideas?
PS-I've tried clearing the Market cache, but didn't help.

Never mind, I popped my old SD in and used Titanium Installer to take care of my apps problem.
Still looking for help on the force close. Even does it straight after a factory wipe with vanilla 1.6!
I'm betting the Market Updater is the culprit, but can't seem to find a way to get rid of it.
Thanks in advance!
I your terminal enter
Code:
ls /data/app

Hi All!
I'm new to this forum, but I registered because I had exactly the same problem. I've updated to the latest CyanogenMod 4.2.13. Since then I had the same crash ever since, i whipped about 4 times and downgraden step by step to 4.2.12 and 4.2.11 which all worked perfectly before. But now i had the same problem.
So i went back a few steps and reinstalled the HTC image which was needed to use the google apps again. When I installed this one. Then i booted it, hey everything works! Nice, reinstall Cyanogen 4.2.13 and just whiped it again (who cares ) and tadaaa, everything works.
Hope it works for you as well!
Good luck!
i was having the same issue when i was trying to install Cyanogens 4.2.13 coming from a different rom also. i found the solution here... hxxp://forums.t-mobile.com/t5/Operating-System-Software/the-process-com-process-gapps-has-stopped-unexpectedly-on-CM-s-4/td-p/288743
(don't know if i can post direct links to other sites so i just replaced the t's with x's at the beginning of the URL)
basically what you gotta do is flash cm-4.2.9.1 1st and after you sign in let it sync, then reboot and flash cm-4.2.13 over with no wipe and everything should be fine. let me know if this helps. it worked for me

Had the same problems.. started last night when I tried to use my VPN on the phone to sign in to Market.. once signed in.. google accounts asked me to sign in again..(verify account) big mistake.. as it seems that it has registered me twice on the phone somehow..
anyway.. the FC on sync came thick and fast.. was out last night.. so couldn't actually take the time to check what was going on..
today did some research..
for me.. after trying a few processes.. I have gone the route of using Titanium backup and freezing the Gmail applications.. I never used it anyway.. as used the stock HTC email program..
happy to report that the FC on sync's have now stopped..
Edits: nope bloody thing.. got a few this morning on bootup.. and it seems market is dead for me..
I have reformatted the card and wiped all cache's.. but still got problems..
hesitant to do a hard reset at the moment as using the phone in China.. So dont actually know what it will wipe out if I reset it?
Can someone chime in here for me..
so the question is.. if i do a hard reset.. will I lose the actually settings that make it hook in to the phone network?
and I suppose from this we get.. how do I pull all of these settings out of the phone to reuse them again after the reset?
Thats a HTC EVO with stock rom
few specs on the software..
Firmware : 2.1 update 1
Baseband version : 2.15.00.07.99
Kernel: 2.6.29-789bf291
Build number: [email protected] test2 (really.. whats this?)
Software number: 1.47.706.1
PRL Version : 1.71_003
PRL version: 00202
Thanks in advance..
Edit: after searching the net for the last few days for a fix.. its seems to be a Android bug.. no amount of wipes and resets put me back on track..
So in the end I went for a fresh Rom... Myn’s Warm TwoPointTwo - [RLS 5 - 01/07/2011] http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793471
Happy to say.. all fixed and now looking good again..
So I have tried all these things on different roms:
- Clear Cache and date (market. download manager & Talk)
- fix permissions
- change settings to store apps only internal
- flashed and re flashed gapps
- Wiped and re flashed mulitple roms
Currently running cm6.1 heroc signed...
Anyone else got any suggestions?
Appreciate it!
Market failures are almost never due to ROMs, or your phone at all. As of late google has been having a bit of downtime, such as today

Is anyone else still having issues with the Market not showing all your apps after flashing CM7? At first I didn't have the problem, but after RC4 and the last couple of nightlies and, and now the stable release of CM7, I still can't get all my apps to show. I've tried just about everything I can think of - restoring from TiBu, wiping cache & Dalvik, unstalling update, rebooting more times than I can count. Am I missing something? Is there some setting I'm supposed to have checked or unchecked?
I know that this has been addressed in several threads, and I have tried everything that I've seen mentioned. I also know that it is not essential that they be in the Market since I obviously still have all my apps, I just don't want to miss any updates.
Thanks in advance.
Since i'm newbie, and cannot post to development forums, maybe someone here has some ideas.
Have been using FroyoMod since 2.7. Today installed 2.9.0 and did full factory reset (dalvik, cache, data - everything). Got a clean phone with FroyoMod 2.9.0
The problem : all apps that use google maps - they Force Close once i get into map activity . Have tried at least three, that were working on 2.8.0. Google Maps app works fine. Have tried to reinstall it - didn't help. Have tried wiping everything again and installing 2.9.0 - still the same.
Since i frequently use apps that crash (ex. cardiotrainer) - where can i get FroyoMod 2.8.0 ?
Thanks!
I have that same problem, as do a few people that have posted in the development forums (I can't post there either). Luca seems focused on the backlight bug, but hopefully he'll get to the GPS stuff soon.
In the meantime, I have the 2.8b zip file somewhere on my phone, I can upload it if you'd like.
At least i am not the only one
Thanks for reply, already found 2.8.0b on the web, seems to be ok with it
I've successfully flashed and tried out several custom roms for the HTC Mini One 2 (Nostromo, CarbonRom, Cyanogen 12, gapps flashed using both arms and aroma) and have encountered one problem repeatedly: After restoring several installed apps (whatsapp, a few games, a dictionary and a translation app) they are all visible and working after the reboot. However, after rebooting again they all disappear from the trebuchet app list (which I really like, btw) along with a number of other apps. In addition, apps like google play force close the moment I open them.
Any ideas about how to rectify this problem?
PS: Quick props to Soenisti. I really like the look and feel of the Nostromo rom. It feels like the fastest of the roms I've tried so far.

Thanks for the quick reply. Do that religiously after flashing. Tried that and it didn't seem to work. Hmmm... might try it again when I have the phone.

#Normaly would be before the flashing.
If doesn't work a full flash /restore might be needed as something went wrong.
