Force Close Since Updating to froyo

I did a wipe,restored to factory settings and then updated... well every since most of my apps wont open.. I keep getting the force close error... any ideas?
I am getting quite a few FCs, some with old programs, and some with new 2.2 programs. No ideas here.
How did you wipe? Did you wipe cache as well? Also, did you restore using mybackup, or titanium? If so, it is possible that your keyboard, or messaging app is causing the problem.
You guys having issues with force closing, are you using task killers? You may be inadvertantly killing some of the new froyo features that help save application data for backup purposes.

[Q] Market notifications problem on DD 2.7

Ok, so I've had this rom running since it first came out. There's no problems with it, but these annoying market notifications won't go away. I've ignored it for a long time, about a couple months, haha. Is there a way of stopping them from popping up? Like, the market cache or something? The problem started when apps downloaded from the market didn't install. They pop up when I download from the market. And sometimes, at random.
And yes, it is raining that bad in Pennsylvania right now, haha.
Here's one more screenshot.
You could try going into settings and clearing market data and c if it works also I use a app called cache cleaner for root users u can get it from the market to clean the cache of a lot of apps on ur rom it has a lot of handy features IMO good luck
Root-Hack-Mod-Always™
I tried that, it didn't work. :'(
same with stock rom
have the same problem with the stock rom. even if the app is deleted and the cache also, the old market notifications still show up when i download new apps from the market
only things i did to my phone are: root access and att bloatware uninstall
Bump. Anyone?

[Q] Cannot update multiple installed apps, is it the new market?

Anyone else noticing that since getting the new market, multiple apps on the Nook Color won't update? They just show open, and I presume would not let you install them at all?
The new Windows Phone 7 clone market seems to show apps even if you can't install them, so sounds like that's what's going on but can't figure out why.
Waze, Facebook, Wifi Analyzer.. I think I saw another one too.
Solution is found, although still a tad quirky. You must have the new market and follow this procedure:
skwalas said:
Ah hah! You are correct. Clearing market data at 161 caused me to lose my apps again. So it seems the full process is as follows: (and note I've never force closed the app, not sure why that should be necessary.
1) set dpi to 160 in build.prop
2) reboot
3) clear market app data (force close first may help?)
4) restart market, accept terms, let it rebuild data at 160 dpi
5) profit

And another procedure, similar, with a few extra steps.

If you update your CM7 or otherwise go back to 161 DPI, the market will eventually stop letting you update again. You can redo the procedure above to fix it. And if you you find your Apps list is empty you can try using AppBrain, it will list updates and you can update them one at a time. Not sure about installing new apps that otherwise would be "incompatible" this way, however.
Thanks to everyone that figured this stuff out, the two posts above are only examples which seem to work, there are other folks who started the ball rolling towards a solution.
New market updates multiple apps for me.
Only problem is that sometimes even if some app is already updated, it still shows it at updating list.
i constantly have to clear data for the new market to work properly. Have you tried that? I know after I clear data I get a notification that updates are available.

By that do you mean clear the notification list? I wouldn't want anyone to read that and go ahead and wipe their data.
Applications>manage apps> market> clear cache; clear data.
I constantly have to do this as well.

Oh, sure, it's updating some apps.. Just some are showing up without the ability to update.
Like I know at least a few apps have updated and they don't show up as needing updates. Or look at Appbrain, you can always see app updates there regardless of the market.
Seems like it's just filtering more apps than it used to. I'm about to remove the new market, it sucks anyway.
Silly question, but how do you guy get the new Market?

Installed automatically on my NC.. Lucky me. There are also apk's floating around.
I'm having a similar problem since updating to nightly 142. Certain icons are no longer visible in Launcher, Advanced Uninstaller, or Titanium Backup. When I visit the Market I'm not given the download box in the header or an update option. Almost as if the app is incompatible with the device. I tried the Applications>manage apps> market> clear cache; clear data procedure with no different result. I did get the message when returning to Market, so I guess I cleared something. The effected apps ( that I'm concerned about ) are Facebook and, of course, Angry Birds. Couple others as well. Thanks for any suggestions

Thanks, m8.
You aren't the first one saying "it automatically updated" but surprisingly, mine doesn't. Don't know why.
Yes, I can see some Vendor (Vending?).apk floating around the net but no clue which version they are.

Didn't help the issue at hand here for me either, unfortunately..
Sorry you're having the same issues. I also posted to the cyanogen forums and am still waiting for another reply to the post. That's where the Titanium Backup suggestion came from. Here's hoping for another suggestion here.
It doesn't seem like the market notifies you if an app needs a manual update due to changing permissions anymore. Also I get a Appstore and market both saying I need to update Amazon mp3 and after I update one the other app store will still say it's not updated so you have to update again in order to clear the two out

I am having the same issue as the OP. Agenda Widget Plus and Facebook disappeared from my "MyApps" list but can be found by searching. I have the new market and going into settings to clear data and cache for market did not help. Had been working without issue previously. I am running n146.

I disabled MarketUpdater.apk last night and uninstalled Market updates and I STILL am having problems with SOME apps.
Oddly, I can see Waze again, but I still cannot 'see' the Plus version of Android Agenda Widget and a few others. I CAN see the free version of Android Agenda Widget, go figure. For some reason I can usually see apps in AppBrain that need updating, but those apps have also disappeared from AppBrain, so I'm not sure what I'm missing currently.
Damn you Google, what are you doing?
Same situation for me. Went to a backup of an earlier nightly that still had the old market and even there Agenda Widget Plus was missing. Also checked the android market web site and it shows Agenda Widget as incompatible with NC. How does the market determine whether an app is compatible with a device? I contacted the Agenda Widget developer and he said he had not changed anything.

I'd kinda like to know that as well. When I originally downloaded the crappy Facebook app I had no problem. But when I go to the market on the website now it says it is not compatible even though it works fine. I suspect now that the market is "device aware" any of my installed apps that get updates will not show if the app is no longer considered compatible so I will be stuck with the older version.

My guess is that Facebook can use the GPS, or Microphone, Camera... some hardware we don't have.
This is new behavior, at least changed behavior, and it's very annoying.
I've read that "device aware" suggestion in a few places, and decided to try the build.prop edit that I've read about elsewhere. Changed the device name to Samsung S and manufacturer to samsung. It didn't make a difference. I also can't understand why Angry Birds and Checkers could be device specific. The Market definitely knows I've got Nook because it is grayed out in the drop down box. I hope brighter minds than mine can come up with a work around.

Lg optimus black default browser cookies still not enabled

In my default browser settings, I already checked "Enable Cookies" but when I'm trying to log in in one of social networking site, it says my "Cookies are not enabled". How can I figure this one out?
Normally cookies are enabled by default...
So maybe you could clear data and cache in Settings -> Applications.
But beware! You will lose all your history,bookmarks, AND cookies during the process.
It SHOULD work after clearing the data and cache
Try clearing cache first and test, if still no good, clear the data.

Thank you! But sadly that doesn't work. Now it shows a dialog box when I'm loggin in, which says "Data Connectivity Problem: A secure connection could not be established." I don't know where to configure that allows the browser to proceed even if it's not secured.
mmm normally it writes this when their is no internet...
Just questions:
Are you using the default browser?
On which rom are you?

Yes. I'm using the default browser. I don't know what rom I have, my android version is Froyo.
I'm actually using a promo from my network carrier which gives me a free access to one of social sites using my old phone ( Nokia C3 ). And I'm using it for years. So I copied the link from my old phone to my LG phone and now, it doesn't work for my LG. so that's my problem. That issue above occurs.

[Q] No notifications after CM10

Hello,
I recently flashed CM10 to my SGS, as the old GB was getting waaaaay too slow. Anyway, all went great, CM10 improved performance and brought plenty of goodies, BUT, and this is a big one, I don't get any notifications whatsoever. Someone texts me in WhatsApp - nothing. I gotta open the app and check. Someone sends me an e-mail - nothing, gotta open and check manually. I checked every possible option - nothing is disabled, even auto-sync is on. I looked around for people with similar problems but I couldn't find any.
Does anyone have any ideas why might this be happening? And yes - I checked the app options too, they all have notifications enabled.
Merry Christmas.
i am not sure whether in CM10 it has also to be selected, but can you check in settings->system->status bar: "show notification count" is ticked/selected?

Well, it wasn't checked, I checked it, but still I don't get notified about anything other than missed calls/SMS. No WhatsApp, Facebook, GMail, etc. What could it be?
This applies both to mobile network connection and WiFi, both non restricted in any way.
perhaps a wipe cache in the app itself, could solve the problem....
But i am afraid that then all settings of the apps are gone too.
its in settings->apps-> select the app and the clear data and cache.

Thanks! That was it. I assume it had something to do with me backing up all my apps in the stock 2.3.6 rom and then restoring them at CM10 4.1.
great...yes this was the reason...especially after such a big step to a new version or system then its recommended to clear everything or not to restore all settings.
