[Q] All apps wiped from phone memory - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was uninstalling a few apps from my phone that I no longer needed (including the uninstallation of Google Talk and Google Voice Search using Titanium Backup) and then rebooted my phone. Upon reboot I found that all of the apps that had been installed on my phone memory were gone; included in these were essential Google apps like the Market, Gmail, Maps, and YouTube.
I had made a backup using Rom Manager a couple of weeks ago and had restored my phone; unfortunately, all of my apps were still missing on restore including the aforementioned Google apps. I found a Market apk that I used in order to reinstall all of my apps but the Market continually force closes, even after wiping the data and cache.
I have never encountered anything like this before and hope someone can help me with this issue. If it helps I have a Rooted Nexus One (unlocked) running a stock ROM Android 2.3.6.

[Q] Accidentally Deleted Facebook.apk.. Help me?

yea I was trying to update my facebook app in the market, but it wouldn't update. so I thought it was my custom rom. I backed up the apk in titanium backup and uninstalled it (i know i'm an idiot). I then went back to market, but facebook still won't install. and titanium didn't backup facebook.apk properly. Now I don't have a facebook app.. any help would be appreciated, such as givingme the file.
You have custom ROM, right?
Download it again, if you don't have it, and extract the Facebook app from there (/system/app).
In the meantime, reboot to recovery, wipe Dalvik-cache, and boot the phone. Try installing Facebook after that.
Alright, i'm downloading the rom again right now. Will wiping Dalvic Cache remove any of my data or mess anything else up?
Wiping Dalvik cache won't mess you up.
Did you reboot after removing Facebook with Titanium Backup? If you don't, installation will fail from the market.
proper steps are:
Remove Facebook from system/app
reboot
Install from market
This will work with any system app that your ROM might have updated in the market
It says application not installed. I just tried the apk from the rom. I havent cleared dalvik cache yet... what do i do?
Edit: No, I didn't reboot, trying it now.
Before rebooting, the system still "remembers" that the app was there. You need to reboot to clean the "remains".
Clearing Dalvik-cache might also help. It doesn't mess up the data, since the cache is rebuilt on boot. It just slows down the 1st boot after it.
I just went through the same procedure with Terminal Emulator on friend's Nexus today (only that I removed the app manually, thus I needed to clear Dalvik cache entry and remove data directory by myself - I believe that if you used Titanium, it did that for you).
Thank you so much! Rebooting fixed the problem, installed from market perfectly.
Happy to help, glad you're back in business.

[Q] Best Practices (Titanium Backup, CM7)

OK, so I have CM build #34 and Titanium Backup Pro installed on my Nexus One with all of my apps apps and settings backed up and synced to Dropbox. I also use ROM Manager Premium for handling my CM7 nighties.
I have tried different variations of wiping data and cache\installing Google Apps\restoring all apps and settings with Titanium Backup but I think I am doing something wrong as I usually end up having to enter login and password information on a lot of my apps (once I get them back on my phone).
If my plan is to update to the latest CM7 version every night, what are the proper steps to do so?
Here is what I think I should do:
1. Back up all apps and settings using Titanium Pro
2. Download latest CM7 version
3. When ROM Manager asks if I want to download Google Apps, I check YES
4. After the download is complete, ROM Manager asks if I would like to Backup Existing ROM (I leave unchecked) and Wipe Date and Cache (I only check this if I am having major issues with the CM7 nightie)
5. ROM loads, phone reboots
(Here is where I start getting really confused)
6. Google asks me to sign in. I skip the sign in
7. Join wireless
8. Restore all apps and settings from Titanium Backup
9. Google keeps on asking me to sign in with my Google account.
10 I sign in and usually have issues with Twitter, work email (Exchange), Facebook, etc. Some apps that I know I had installed and configured do not show up but when I go to the Market they show as Purchased and I have to re-download them. Later when I have Twitter and Facebook configured, if I go to Settings> Accounts and Sync, it only shows Gmail and my work email (no Facebook or Twitter). If I try adding Facebook and Twitter, it never goes to the sign in screen. I can back out and see and use Facebook and Twitter on my home screen though.
Questions:
If I am downloading only CM7 nighties, should I download and install Google Apps every night (why else would ROM Manager prompt me for it and include it with every CM7 nightie)?
When using Titanium Backup, should I still sign in to my Google account on my phone or just skip it and restore all settings, apps and data?
Can someone lay out an easy step-by-step best way to accomplish what I am attempting? I think this would help a lot of novice users who want to experience the awesome custom ROMs that are floating around.
Thank you all for your time and effort!
Going from one nightly to another, you do not need to wipe anything.

Then why do I have do I have to keep re-entering all types of logins after upgrading to a new CM7 nightie ?
You say not to wipe data and cache. What about the rest of my post? Any other advice?
Just flashover the top of what u got

You should try logging in to Google first before restoring your apps with Titanium Backup. Then reboot. Usually that will restore the list of apps that you installed in the Market.
If not, then clear your market data and cache and do a reboot again.
So I always should install Google Apps every time I get prompted by ROM Manager just before I start installing a nightie? Then just flash the new CM7 version without wiping Data and Cache?
I didn't say anything about flashing gapps again, just flash the newer nightly over your old nightly.

OK, tried what you said (not flashing gapps) and just flashed to the newest CM7 nightie. I also did not delete Data and Cache. Now the Market, Talk, Car Home, Voice (looks like all the Google apps) do not work. I'm getting pop ups stating that I need to sign in to my Google account but when I go to Settings>Accounts and Sync, There is no option for me to add my Google credentials. I see nothing except corporate email and FaceBook (no Twitter Either---and I have that installed).
That is why I was asking earlier if I should get the gapps every time I flash to a new nightly build. Every time I don't download Google Apps along with the CM7 nightie, I always loose a ton of settings and functionality along with not having access to all of my Google Apps.
Btw, I did a full restore of Titanium Backup Pro (all apps and data) after I flashed to the new CM7 nightie b/c of the problem stated earlier in this post.
Any thoughts?
I have no idea what is going wrong then.
Every few days I download the nightly, flash it without any wipes right over top of my current system, and use my phone. All settings stay working, I haven't flashed gapps for a long while now.
It is pretty much a one step process for me. It sounds like there is some sort of strange wiping going on for you though.
I had this issue when I used ROM Manager to download the ROM.
Here's what to do, just download the nightly from this link,
http://mirror1.kanged.net/nightly/passion/
Then use ROM Manager to install from zip, don't wipe or clear anything.
This will let you flash it over with no issues.
Ah, that could very well be it. I am always downloading it manually and flashing from it manually in Rom Manager.

Yeah I do not know why it is doing this. But oh well lol.

after you flash the new nightly build on top of your current, are you restoring anything via Titanium?
When restoring system data, i found that the order in which its restored makes the difference between things working and not.
I had a similar problem a while back... after a complete wipe and fresh install of CM + Gapps i used TB to restore everything including system app data. after the restore, everything looked OK. If i was to check settings/accounts & sync, everything was there correctly. But when I tried to run a system app, I'd have nothing but problems..(G-Talk & Latitude wouldnt log in, Market was jerked, Gmail would FC...FB and twitter would keep asking for my password..etc). The way I got it to work was to wipe all system data, then in a logical order, restore it again one app at a time with a reboot between each restore.
Its alot easier to just manually enter all account info. Then use TB (if needed) to restore things like FB, Twitter, Wifi & BT settings.
Not sure if this is what you were looking for, but typing this made the bus ride home alot quicker.

[Q] Market, download unsuccessful

Hi,
I'm starting playing with my Nook and have some problem with Market. Each time i try downloading an application it says "Download unsessfull".
I had some problems yesterday trying to use the CWR to make backup, so it can be related..
I don't know what can be related to this so i try to remember all things i done:
- A Nook, unboxed then updated to 1.1
- Rooted using Autonooter 3.0
- At this point Market was working, ie: i downloaded go launcher ex.
- I installed Rom manager and apply cwr (choosed Nook (new), i think it was the mistake)
- rebooted to recovery, i wanted to save the system before trying to apply kernel patch (OC and better touch responsiveness)
- failed to backup the system (it say's can't mount /system)
- So i tried to reboot, it reboot back to recovery each time.
- Panic mode (i'm not linux, recovery or other underground android fluent
- I think a tried the wrong buttons : clear dalvik, i think i clicked "wipe cache partition". Don't think i tried other button, not sure..
- Light back to brain and started searching real solutions
- Wana try the 8 fail solutions, but failed to do that (i don't want to lose against nook
- I installed zip from card: clorkwork-removal
- Nook back to laucher
- At this point i installed some app from elsewhere than Market, i played a little with spare parts i think. When a tried to install from market it didn't work.
- Try to clear market app cache, doesn't change anything.
Sorry if it was a long read, but i think that maximum informations can help you to help me
Oh, Youtube don't lauch anymore too (but that was before the cwr misadventure)
Thank you,
David
ps: sorry about my english
Try using titanium backup to clear data for google framework and market. Also make sure your wireless isn't blocking any traffic. This happens to me on my work network sometimes.
if i don't have titanium (no market at all..) the clear data from google framework is similar to that (found in another thread)?
settings->applications->manage->all
finf google services framework and clear the data then force quit

i give it a try.
is it the "google apps" one in applications list?
So it is not the google apps.. i try to update the market to 2.2.6. Search works but download doesnt start at all..
anybody has can hint me about this google framework..
Double post..
I was in the same situation- I also have an NC, 1.1.0, autonootered 3.0.0 and I installed ROM Manager (v3.0.1.0) from the market and used it to install CWM 3.0.0.6 by choosing "Nook Color" rather than "Nook Color (old)" at Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. I then did the reboot before rebooting into recovery and then wiped the cache and tried to wipe the Davlik cache, but every time I chose that it just went back to the same menu without doing anything. I then flashed Dalingrin's OC kernel and it seemed to work fine- SetCPU allowed me to OC up to 1100. BUT I lost access to the Market- everything I tried to install came back "Download Unsuccessful".
I finally, after much reading, removing CWM and reinstalling it 2 or 3 times etc. tried choosing "Nook Color (old)". This installed CWM 3.0.0.5 which DID let me wipe the Davlik cache and then when I installed the OC kernel it worked and I could download from the Market again.
So I would get yourself back to just a rooted nook (using clockwork removal if necessary). Then use ROM Manager to flash the ClockworkMod Recovery, but make sure to choose "Nook Color (old)". Then make sure to reboot (power off and back on you NC) and go to ROM Manager and reboot into recovery. Once there wipe the cache then go to "Advanced" and wipe the Davlik cache (I think this is the crucial part). After this I went ahead and flashed the OC kernel, but you could just reboot and hopefully you'll have access to the Market again like I did.
Good luck!

This method does still does not allow access to all the apps, only more.
Is there a chance that the google framework is missing?
I can see this framework on my phone, not on my nook.. What can i do please?
first thing tonight: i will check if GoogleServicesFramework.apk exists in system/app
Back, tonight was movie night with my girlfirend.. So i didn't played with my nook..
This morning i used rootexplorer to check if there was a GoogleServicesFramework.apk in system/app. It was not.
I tried to disable More locale app (it used to translate the devices texts in french) hope that "google framework" was baddly translated in app list..
Can someone confirm that the "google framework" i'm looking is the "GoogleServicesFramework.apk", and where is it on the nook? If missing, can i just put it with root explorer? Can the "clockwork removal" have beeing a cause on it's vanish?
Next time i have time i will try the Crispian Solution too..
Look for googleframework services in titanium backup. Select it and a little window pops up with options to uninstall and such. There is a button on the right that says wipe data. You can do the same for the Market.
As i said, googleframework service is not in titanium backup list..
I will try the CWR method asap.
grmph, tried to wipe dalvik and partition cache using working recovery.
Didn't work ..
i mean market does not work better..
Gtalk isn't working anymore too..
What if the framework service isnt listed in Manage Applications (all). This is on a rooted nook running stock 1.1.
are you telling that's normal on stock rooted nook 1.1

that's not what I am saying. I am saying I cannot install from the market and I don't even see the google framework listed under manage applications with the all filter selected
oh sorry, so you have the same problem ..
As i live in france i don't care about B&N app and shops i consider upgradding to froyo on emmc.. It will resolve my problem i think?
Possible solution
Same issue here. Color Nook v.1.1 rooted with Autonooter 3.0.0.
Market was working fine, then stopped. Returned to stock, then rerooted. Market worked for 10 apps, then stopped again. Clearing all cache did not fix. No sign of Google Services Framework in app list.
However, I found Download Manager and DownloadAdmin in the apps list and cleared the data for those (cache had already been cleared -- I used Gemini App Mgr for one-button clear-all-cache). Market is now working again.

[Q] Market app update issues

I just reinstalled CyanogenMod and now I'm having a weird issue with the Market. The main Google account I use is not able to download any apps from the market. The secondary account I have has been able to update a few of the apps so I'm not real sure what is going on.
I have reset the data on the market, cleared the cache and dalvik cache, uninstalled market, reinstalled it using the gapps package and I am still having the same issues. After that I reflashed the ROM on top of itself only resetting the cache and dalvik.
Any ideas before I reflash the whole ROM from scratch?
Thanks,

[Q] Google Now Voice Search crash - please help!

Hi all,
Google Now is working perfectly apart from the voice search feature. When I try it, GNow recognises what I say, then immediately crashes with the message 'Unfortunately Google Now has stopped'. I've tried wiping and reinstalling g and v search apps, with no luck. Independent voice apps like vlingo work fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks very much...

Had the very same problem on my new GSIII with Jelly Bean. Tried wiping application data, caches, downloading language files, disabling applications in the search options, all to no avail. In the end I used Root App Delete (free application) to disable Google Search. It doesn't like you messing with System apps bit will allow it. I then installed Google Search from the Market as a user app and have had no issues since.
Might be worth a try, I hope it helps.

Not sure if this will help since I am on Sprint Galaxy S3, and JB 4.1.2 (stock, rooted). I used Titanium Backup to uninstall Google Search and Voice Search. Both were system apps on my phone. Rebooted (just for the heck of it). Then reinstalled Google Search and Voice Search from the martket and it's working fine now.
Uninstall google search with a 3rd party app, reinstall from the market, reboot into recovery, fix permissions, wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache, reboot. Worked on my T889 running Cm10.1 nightlies.
