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!

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
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.

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..
Hi All,
I got the above error when trying to perform market update for following applications:
1) Fring
2) N1 Torch Light
However, I still have 55% left for my internal memory and 58% for my SD memory. The strange thing is I still can download and install new apps.
My phone is rooted with latest CyanogenMod installed. I think the problem only started today after I had done the below:
1) Download a "build.prop" and push to my phone
2) This item claims to improve the HSDPA speed
3) After installed and tested no different
4) Then I extracted the "build.prop" from Cyanogen zip file and push back to my phone
I'm not sure whether this problem is related to the above but my other function is working fine. I even tried to reboot my phone and still same problem :-(
Same problem here on both bakedgoods 1.1 and desire a16 just started happening today. Same apps as well.

Yours also happened to Fring and N1 torch? I just wonder will it happen to others apps as well (which needed to update too) and I don't think is a good idea to always need uninstall and install again
happening on 5.0.4.1 with torch. for kicks I uninstalled another app and tried to update torch again. no luck.
completely uninstalling torch and then installing the new version solved my problem.
There was no way I was out of space seeing as I have a 2gb partition on my sd card for apps

2gb?? Damn, man. Well, that's a definitive indication you're in NO WAY out of space (I hope). I've run into this problem too. An uninstall/reinstall always fixes it for me, as well. But the other day it happened with RDC by xtralogic. Now, that's no N1 Torch in terms of setup, so I just backed-up the currently installed (old) version via Titanium...then: Market>RDC>Uninstall>Reinstall>Titanium>Restore>RemoteDesktop>Data Only
Worked like a charm.
Mine just started doing this with Nimbuzz and Smart Keyboard Pro...
All I did was install a fresh CM 5.0.5.1 (Full wipe) and then did a Tittanium app backup..
EDIT Unistall / reinstall and all is fine...
Turn on the app2sd from the 'Settings - applications - apps2sd'

Yeah I got the error and for kicks, increased my partition from 512->2gb and still got the error
That error is misleading, it happens or certain apps only.
To update: uninstall and then install those apps.
Has anyone found a fix that doesn't require uninstalling and reinstalling the app? For the most part, that works fine, but for one of my games, I lose all my progress if I do this. I've tried backing the game up via Titanium backup, uninstalling, installing the new version, then restoring data only from Titanium, but that just seems to make the new version crash back to Launcher every time I try to start it. Starts just fine if I don't restore the data, but then I lose all my progress.
The game actually runs fine for me on the version I have installed, so I don't really need to update, but it gets a little old having the market constantly telling me that I should update it.

Back it up with titanium back up. Uninstall it. Reinstall from Market. Then use Titanium Backup to restore data only for that app.
Happening with the latest shake them all. Sadly, the 30 seconds I spent setting it up has to be repeated

As mentioned, I've tried that. For some reason, restoring the data from the previous version causes the new version to crash on start up every time.
This thread really helped me. Do we know if Google is looking into this problem/bug?
Turn on the app2sd from the 'Settings - applications - apps2sd'
I try it and now i can install App from Market. Thank you.

Hi there, i bought a Nexus S to replace the Xperia X10, and i notice that i can not update the market, i am stuck at 2.3.6.
i went to apps managemet and uninstalled the "updates" and clear the data for the market app but it doesn't work, it keep downloading the 2.3 version instead of the 3.1 version.
In the X10 the market updates correctly so it is not a country related problem.
any ideas???
Download the apk yourself and install it

I wish I could keep the old market. The new one is slow, laggy, having strange bug of it wanting to attach itself to another Gmail I have, and I have no need for books or movies.
If I pull the new out and install old, the new one updates all by itself. I don't know he it's possible to keep the market from updating itself.
Look under /system/app for MarketUpdater.apk and either delete it or change the permissions to 000.
Then go to manage applications and uninstall market update.
Your market will now stay the same

As far as the market goes.....
Make sure you have the MarketUpdater.apk in /system/app. Also clear try clearing data for the market under settings-->applications-->manage applications
And for the software updates....
What version do you have? Because not all models and carriers are at the same software build number.
i haven't rooted the phone, and it is stock.
i am the only one with this problem???
my phone is factory unlocked and it is a i9020a phone.
Its not a "problem". The update isn't instantly pushed to all phones right away. It gets pushed in stages or something to that effect.
Edit:

Download it, put on SD card and install

yes i undesrtand that, but there is a previus version i think is the 3.1.3, and i can't get that version too, and it's released months ago, the strange thing is that i can update to the green version 2.3.1 from the grey one (i don't remenber the version but it's one of the first market available).
3.1.3 was never released to our nexus s
Hi,
I had thesame problem as you are experiencing now. Tried the downloaded version but uninstalled it.
Since this morning i have the official market app.
This is how i got it, maybe it has nothing to do with it but its worth a try.
- go to settings and enable location via.Wifi and cellular
- go to app management and remove cache, app data and the market updates you might have
- in the launcher open market app, accept terms and let it load to home screen
- push home button
- lock your phone for about 15minutes
You should have the new market now. I tried this twice and both times it worked then i disabled the location setting and it didnt work.
Hope this helps you.

@p.pavljasevic, your method confirmed working, I just did mine and got 3.1.5 now.
I stop trying long time ago thinking it might've been not pushed to the phone yet, I just tried it and it worked.

Ok, the wifi and gps location was activated, i uninstalled the market updates and clead data and i went back to 2.13 version (the grey one), wait a few minutes and the 2.3.6 version was installed (the green one). I also tried turning wifi and gps off and no luck
someone says that the 3.1.3 version was never pushed to nexus, anyone else experienced that??
I am glad that it worked for at least one more person, hope it can help more people.
I dont know if and when 3.1.3 was released but i am on 3.1.5 now.
btw, i am on i9023 version.

The new market keep force closing...can't even get it to open. I tried clearing data and cache and that didn't help. Uninstalled updates and downloaded an early version of the market and that one tries to open but FC's too. Running Miui 1.8.5. Any ideas on how to fix this. Annoying.
Did you ever get this going? I am having the same issue, tried all I can think of.
I had this problem too one one nook (have access to 2, both on miui). Only solution so far was rolling back using titanium and the renaming market updater with .bak to disable it. If i didn't market would update and fc again.
Strange thing is - the other nook is still fine and is on same market release as the other was when it was force closing.
Hoping for a better solution.
I dont like the new market, its design sucks and it lags terribly..
The solution is easy. Use Titanium Backup to remove the otherwise impossible to remove Market Updater application.
Then go into your System > Applications menu and choose to uninstall updates for Market.
This way you can use the old, properly working market, without worrying bout the OS to redownload the new one.
I hope I was able to help you.
