I was having a lot of force close messages pop up after installing Decrapped 1.1 so I followed Cubed's suggestion to wipe data...At first the phone wasn't recognizing my SIM but I got that taken care of (via the thread "sim not recognized). Now I'm trying to go through the initial setup but I keep getting a "stopped unexpectedly" message and have to force close the Setup Wizard every time and can't get through it. Any Suggestions?
EDIT: Reflashed Decrapped 1.1 and all is well...just have to reflash all the other mods now too....
I got this too. Im wondering if its the rom?
Not sure, a lot of people have had issues with wipes/resets even if the phone isn't rooted.

lg setup wizard forces close
it sets up things like back up assistant, emails/gmail/twitter, and gps settings. So you need to make sure you have back up assistance for sure in your system apps and gmail and whatnot. just make sure you have all the apps. and make sure you also have the permissions set to: owner/read and write, group/read, and others/read, aka rw-r--r--
set permissions like that for each app ,and also make sure you change owner to root for everything
reboot your phone and it should work, if not probably dont have permissions/owner all set or missing an app still
use the application root explorer to do all this
thank you to shorty and winston

After TRYING all kinds of suggestions, none of which work, I found one that says:
- copy all google talk service and google talk app to system/app folder
- Grant all possible privilages to them
- Restart the phone.
In what folder is google talk service and google talk app located?
How do you grant them "all privledges'?
Seems to me the last time I attempted to CUT AND PASTE a file to the system/app folder, it wouldn't let me.
This message has come up EVEN AFTER I have installed numerous ROMs.
I appreciate any help!
Did you flash stock in between flashes?. To move a file rlto system/app use adb or super manager
If I have helped press thanks.
Clean install of ROMs
Every time I flash, I go back to stock and do a Master Clear, so my flashes are clean. I use Titanium BU Pro to reinstall apps, BUT do NOT restore system data, just app data.
I'm thinking that the problem MIGHT be related to the syncing of my calendar with the google calendar I have online. Triied doing the data clear, etc....
Like I said, I've tried everything except what I posted in my first post. Problem is, I don't know where the files are located so that I can transfer them to the system folder. This seems like the only other "solution" I haven't tried at this point.
Hate to do it, but I'm thinking about going back to stock 2.2 and see if that makes a difference.
My captivate is running CyanogenMod - 7 - 06032011. Few issues until today. After using my phone early this morning, the phone has become inaccessible. My exchange email requires a passcode, and it will not accept my input. I know for a fact that the code is correct--it is the same I have always used, and the same as many other passcodes as well. After much frustration I restored the phone to defaults and attempted to restore device from back-up, hoping it would replace the issue. However, the same issue occurs. Any solutions? Is there any back door into the phone? Also, does anyone know of a way to disable the exchange required passcode?? Thank you!
I found email.apk that disables the security requirement. Now, is there anyway to install that .apk from clockwork? I'd really like to get this phone working, and recover my information. Please help!
If you can allow non market apps just put the apk in your sd card tap the file on your phone and install it

Back up the email.apk using TiBu then delete it using whatever file explorer program you have. After that, restore the email.apk from TiBu.

I know how to install apps. But I cannot get in to the phone bc of the passcode malfunction. I need a way to install the .apk from recovery.
Would really appreciate some help.
Removed some bloatware via Titanium Backup, and of course, I got trigger happy.
process com.motorola.contacts (Contacts force closes)
process com.motorola.conversations (text messaging force closes)
So I have Root Explorer and got a hold of a system dump for Bionic.
I started by moving YahooContacts.apk (one of the apps I guess I shouldn't have uninstalled) back to the /system/app folder...but it doesn't show up anywhere as an installed app (just that the .apk was moved). If I try to actually select the .apk and try to install it says "Application did not Install" but the .apk IS moved.
Processes still don't work after moving.
I would appreciate any help, at this point I can't text or place calls. Thanks in advance, this forum helped me with the entire root process.
You cannot freeze/remove ANY of the other authenticator apps, it will cause contacts to freeze. I ran into that on the Droid 3.
First off there is no need to delete/remove, Freezing them accomplishes the same thing but most importantly it allows you to reverse what you have broken by Defrosting it. Do yourself a favor stop deleting and start freezing. If 16GB is not enough internal storage for you then you might consider an external HD from Seagate!!!!!!! LOL
I realize I made a big mistake. That's totally on me But it's in the past
Do I have any options to get this working again? I am definitely going to freeze apps in the future.
If I did delete an authenticator process, is there any way I can get those back? Would they be available through a system dump?
I believe that you need to make sure the permissions are correct after reinstalling an apk to the system/app folder. I've never done this, so I'll let you do the research. I've heard you can use root explorer to do this or a script with terminal emulator. Sorry I can't help more
I have the exact same problem, and am attempting to troubleshoot this issue on a different forum, however I am not allowed to post links but I'll try and keep you updated.
Edit: It's not a problem with permissions, I've made sure that they're correct with root explorer. It seems to be a Bionic-specific issue. I might just return it at this rate.
Thankfully, there's an unroot to use. I think im in the same boat. re-added all the yahoo related .apk and .odex and set permissions/owner, still nothing. Unroot and hope the Verizon dude is in a good mood!
Except now ADB is throwing "ERROR: ADB could not be granted root access" when trying to unroot
excellent.
Someone in the thread I was talking about had some success, its on droidforums dot net, droid bionic forum, bionic support, HELP! accidentally deleted IMSCServer from Droid Bionic thread. Maybe you can try something I haven't.
just do a factory reset thats what i had to do as I had the same problem.
I tried that, it didn't work... Did you actually get your system apps back? Did you do it through settings or the recovery menu?
i froze my bloat thats prob the difference and it was yahoo that caused the problem for me...

It really begs the question why anything with Yahoo is required by the system. Furthermore, why did they make it so frustratingly hard to reinstall system apps on the Bionic? Really disappointed in Motorola for this.
Here is the fix for Contacts, restore these files and set correct permission, reboot and presto Contacts fixed
That did it.. I have been looking for the YAHOO Contacts.apk file for 3 days with a bloody wortheless phone that I spent 300 shells on!
BTW I agree with Glimmerman, WHY DID YAHOO get involved in contacts? Talk about a sneaky way in integrate them.

Sorry if I'm newbtastic here but what do I do with these APKs and odex. I tried installing with ES explorer but it would not install. Am I supposed to move these files somewheres? /system/app then try install ? Thanks
answered my own question. I WAS newbtastic afterall. LOL. Thanks anyways. This did it. Dang Yahoo!
lol yep my girlfriend did this yesterday fortunately i have a bionic too so i just pulled the files from my phone and pushed to hers.
damn you yahoo.
also, apparently go contacts EX will 'fix' the problem (you must use their app however)

Wait - WHERE are we putting the Contact fix and do we extract it once we've moved it?

I'm confused as to where to put this. I downloaded it and it downloaded into tapatalk downloads. Where do I move it and do I extract it?

After flashing ROM and installing google apps, I get "Server error, Retry" message when trying to connect to Android Market. Doesn't matter if I try connecting using 3g or wifi. When I connect to the Market using my computer, I see all my apps listed as "installed". When I choose to install a new app from the Market using my computer, it shows that it's being sent to my phone, but my phone never gets it. Anybody know what's going on?
Nothing Google is working. Typing a search in the google search box forces web browser to close. Reset phone and entered info for google account, but I get the same error message.
Try this:
Go to Settings>Application>Manage Apps>All
Then scroll down and look for the Market app. Press the app, force stop, then clear data. Do a normal reboot just to make sure. Then see if that fixed it.

Yeah, tried that a couple times. Did it again, just for fun, with same result. Am I using the wrong google apps pack? I'll try a couple different ones. Really want google to recognize my phone again. Currently, no syncing of gmail, calendar, contacts, app updates, etc.
ok. Quick update. Found info on Cyanogen forum that recommended Re-flashing Cyanogen 7.1.0 and re-installing google apps pak. After I did this, my phone asked me to sign in to google accounts, and immediately started downloading all my Market apps. I was excited until, my status bar said "error downloading xxxx" for each and every app it tried to restore. After the 47th app, it finally stopped and gave the error message: "The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again".
As it turns out, about 1/3 of my apps were restored properly. Not sure what to do about the rest.
Ah I'm sorry about that. I had the same problem before and all I did was clear data to fix it.
(For future reference, use titanium backup, downloadable from the market, to backup&restore your apps before flashing a new ROM. Make a copy of the Titanium Backup folder from your SD card and store it on your PC. That way, if you accidentally formatted your SD card, you'll always have a copy of the folder to restore your apps.)

Thanks. I did make a Titanium backup, but needed to install Titanium from the market in order to restore it. As it turns out, after rebooting the phone, the market app is working now, so I just decided to restore the apps I want manually. Currently, I am using my computer to look at my library of apps on the market, and clicking install to restore only the ones I really want. It's nice to see that all the ATT bloatware is available if needed, but it's not being forced on me.
Glad things worked out for you, eventually. Yes, that's a nice feature from AT&T. I don't like their apps it just takes up space. But if I need to sell my phone as stock its nice to have the AT&T apps back

Hello everybody,
After flashing my phone with Temasek ROM RC1-87, i got problem with Car Mode. I can not really remove it, because ether i could not find it with file manager and there is no such app in application menu, not even in titanium backup with superuser rights.
It pop up very often, when i am answering my call, even walking. Just random pop up in phone top bar. Then i need to slide it down and lick it to close. I could not even turn it on, because there is no such app in my phone, but somehow it turns on. It is very annoying, because if i answer my phone call and it pop up, then speaker turns on, or for example i am surfing the net and it pops up, when i click it to close my web browser closes.
Maybe someone have the same issue? How could i remove it for lifetime .. My phone is rooted and full wiped. I did all the wipes in CWM. I tried only Temasek's ROM, so maybe it's it fault? Thank you for your answers.
P.s. I had the same problem in my stock kernel/rom, the only difference was that then the app showed up in screen and i needed to click EXIT. I get rid of it uninstalling with titanium back up back then. Now it does not work.
I don't have that problem mate. Sorry.
But seriously, how could that be even possible. There is no car home/mode*.apk, or i can not find it, there is no such app in titanium backup, there is no such app in applications menu and so on... Maybe there is some FULL WIPE or something..
Tried to use System Toolbox app, could not find any Car app.. I noticed before on other ROM that it appeared after installing gapps! Please someone, let me know how to get rid of that evil app
yes there is. goto applications "running services", its not under running but its under "ALL". u goto it and u cannot click stop / etc. cause its not running. atleast on mine anyway. .87
So how should i get rid of it?
If you are using my 2.3.7 gapps, there are 2 apks that you need to remove from /system/app in order to remove Car Home. They are as follows:-
CarHomeGoogle.apk
CarHomeLauncher.apk
Try finding it and delete it. If you still couldn't find it, I can make a simple flashable zip for you to remove the above 2 files from /system/app
Gimme a page if u need more help.
Cheers
I tried Super Manager,System Toolbox, stock file manager, non of them show that there are such files like CarHomeGoogle.apk or CarHomeLauncher.apk. I am looking at system/app/. Is that even possible? Could you make a zip for me? Oh and i did not install any gapps, just wiped my phone, installed your rom and that was it.
ive got it there. can see it in ALL (*not running)
i can browse to system/apps/ theres 2 there. cannot delete.
says error deleting file (permisions or something) what program can definatley delete these files?
