Hi guys,
I updated my g1 to CM5.0.7-ds and my market app is gone. So i figured out that I need to flash gapps and I did it. But after flash i get Gmail, Maps and New and Weather apps but again there is no Market. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Tnx in advance for helping me to solve this issue.
Try to wipe and reinstall.. wipe everything.

sent from my... naah you know tapatalk,xda and so on.
Yeeeesssss, I did it. I don't understand, I wiped everything and first time. Repeated procedure again and now it's working. Why that? Anyway, 5.0.7 is great. It speed up my G1. Thanks again for helping me...
If this will happen again, just reinstall GAPPS...i will search the link for you
*just a second*
...edit...
here it is
GAPPS Download
I try that, but with no luck. Only help was to reinstall whole CM and GAPPS... After that everything works like a charm...
well sometimes you can´t explain why things happen. it´s just because android ;D its wiping is the allround solution.
"It's just because Android". good point Good to know for that great solution
Hello all,
After flashing CyanogenMod the other day, I decided I didn't like it too much. ( Mind you, I just use my phone for basic phone stuff, so please don't flame me for it. xD ) So I used a nandroid to go back to my original (rooted) stuff.
However, in doing this, it seems that it messed up my Market app somehow.
Whenever I try to search, open, or do anything involving the Market App, it'll say: Attention. A network error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen.
It's been like this for a while now. I can use internet, voice-to-text, and anything else that requires data ( not even WiFi works with Market ), but not Market.
What can I do to fix this?
Full wipe. Fresh install of rom+gapps.
Yea its Me Again With The
Modified Hero
@laie - he said he nanded back to rooted stock
@OP - try the nand restore again? Otherwise you could try adb shell fix_permissions?

It tells me that "fix_permissions: not found"
Edit: I've got it fixing now, will edit with update.
Edit(2): It didn't help, sadly.
I don't even remember, but does rooted stock 1.5 allow you to install non-market apps? If so, go find a market 2.3.6 apk on xda or google. Delete the one you have, boot into recovery wipe cache and then reboot, install the app - see if that'll work.
Nope, that didn't work sadly... Ironically, my Market worked perfectly without the updates installed. Is it possible just to block all updates for the Market apk?
this might work for you. a friend was having similar problem. this is what i did (note, i really really think that it was pure coincidence but...) go to SETTINGS -> APPLICATIONS -> MANAGE APPS. locate Market, if Force Stop is not greyed out. then click it, then click Clear Data.
like i said, his was having the same problem, i really think that it may have been a coincidence, but maybe not.

Yes, you need to delete the system app "marketupdater.apk". Also, if you go into settings/manage apps/all/market - can you click the button "uninstall updates"? If not, do you know what market version you had that worked? If so try to find and install that one using the same steps as I mentioned before. If that doesn't work, I'm at a loss.
Also what ngholson just posted is a good idea along with clear cache from the same menu.
I hope you get it figured out, good luck.

Yea and??? He can still start fresh. He posted he did a nand back to his rooted stuff. Which means he can srart fresh. As in wipe data,cache dev-cache and sd-ext. Boot up and then reboot back into recovery reflash gapps. Boot up. Load tb go into settings, manage apps locate market force stop and clear data. Open tb up locate market updater apk. Uninstall. Reboot should be good.

The problem version is 2002306, oddly enough, I've overheard some other people having problems with it as well at a place a friend works. Maybe it's a stock hero thing. I'll revert to an older version, maybe one day this will clear itself out.
Thank you everyone for participating in helping me. At least it was a good effort.

Laie I was just telling you, don't get all frisky. If you read the OP again, you'll see he WANTS to be on stock 1.5. I couldn't tell you why lol. Maybe you forgot (it's been forever) but stock and sense based ROMs already contain gapps. You only flash those on AOSP based ROMs, so he can't reflash gapps. If he wiped and then nand restored it would've restored /system which is where the market would live in a stock ROM. His issue was likely a market auto-update which did not agree with old ass donut stock. Who knows. I wasn't bashing you, and I'm not now, calm down. Hopefully this info helps you help someone later. Peace.
OP- I have ONE MORE idea. Go grab a themed market zip from xda member "pendo" - he has green, blue, and red. They should flash from recovery. Delete your current market app FIRST, and clear cache and dalvik cache in recovery, flash and reboot. Good luck.
EDIT: 2 ideas I guess, copy the nand backup to your computer, find the "marketupdater.apk" in /system/app and delete it out of the nand. Copy that new nand to the same place as the current one you have and try to wipe all then restore that newish one.... I actally have NO idea if you can alter a nand or the system.img it contains, but it may be worth a shot. You could also just give up, and get gingerbread, because it's AWESOME.

LOL agreed.
@OP - You could also try one of the *ahm* market replacements. like *ahm* applanet or something (not sure how 'legal' they are but...)
also, i know someone mentioned it before but did you ever get your permissions fixed? if not try that too, you can do it from ROM Manager.

Duce were in the op does he say he's looking to get back to 1.5??? Humm think you might be reading to much " lol " eyes playing tricks on you??? He said he restored his rooted stuff. Not restored 1.5. And nope I remember 1.5 and I'm aware of the gapps only flash with aosp. I posted my comment because he didn't say 1.5 so I took a guess as he was not on 1.5 because he didn't mention it. So mabey this will help you help someone in the future slow it down when ya read. Because you know what happens when you assume. "" Read slow "" duce read slow lol

Pendo's themed market wouldn't flash, sadly. And it's a shame too, because they look really great.

I looked into that, but it's permissions are a bit much.

I'm really sorry, you're right, I forgot to mention what I'm using.
It's:
Firmware: 2.1-update1

Again, I'm sorry for not mentioning that.
I redid everything on it, the only thing I haven't touched is the radio file.
When I tried CyanogenMod 6 at the start of this thread, it had me flash 2.42.01.04.27. Could that be the problem?
And I'm terribly sorry for the delay in replying. Other issues are stealing my time.
Ok let's start from scratch. What rom,recovery, kernel & mods are you using?? Also whats your prl, and are you s-off???

That's about it. I think it's all worked flawlessly until the radio, but I'm not sure. If I'm missing any info, please let me know.
maybe consider starting completely over. download a new rom, i recommend aospcmod. download the latest version of gapps at the same time. if you don't already have it install ROMManager from errr. damnit your market doesn't work... hopefully you already have it. Open rom manager and install a custom recovery (i recommend clockworkmod) once that is done copy both the new rom and gapps zips to your sdcard, reboot to recovery (either manually or using rommanager) wipe everything. then select 'choose zip from sdcard' (or similar, can't remember exact verbiage) and install your ROM, then before you let it reboot, then use the same option and install gapps as well, then reboot. follow setup and it should work fine.
Hello All;
I have decided to try and male my HP touch pad an Android only touch pad.
I need help though as i am a novice at best.
I am looking for help on the files i will need. Want to install CM 10 recent and CWM.
Do i need a boot loader or will that be in the ROM?
And what other files will i need?
i am assuming i need a ROM, Recovery, and GAPPS. Other than that i am not sure.
Found someone on the WebOS Nation who is willing to help so i dont want to go into this like and idiot, i want to have my ducks in a row.
Any help will be appreciated
thanks

Good point, Hey let me ask you something.
I like flashing ROMs but I always end up with a mess. Moboot, i dont think updates as grub2 does. So, i have thought the best way to switch ROMs would be treating the ROM as a first install, does that make sense and do you agree?
Or do you know a method to change ROMs that works well for you?

Android doesn't update the way Linux does, it only updates apps; the bootloader isn't going to update neatly from a package manager. At the same time, updating the TP's bootloader (moboot) is usually unnecessary. On the other hand I usually like to keep my recovery (TWRP/CWM) up to date. When I switch ROMs I just wipe and flash from recovery. Never had a problem.

What rules are you following? Full wipe? Leaving extra stuff in moboot is normal. You can delete the extras if they really bother you.
wipe cache and dalvik and factory reset

You should wipe system as well and if the extra uimage is still there you can delete it using a file manager after booting

As far as I know, most ROM install scripts automatically wipe system for you. Can't hurt to try, though.
Thankfully I have this zip again thanks to sstar posting it the other day. This zip will wipe your ulmage clean. Just flash it as you would a rom, than flash rom and gapps after.

I gave my kids my old Galaxy S1 Captivate. I have left the sim card in so that the "Emergency Call" button did not show up on the lock screen and I got a new sim anyway. Is there a way to remove the sim and get rid of the call feature all together? I was going to root the phone and update to 4.4 when I can. Is there a way to get rid of the "phone" features? I also have a Moto Atrix that I was going to do the same thing for my other kid as well. Any help would be great.

Try CF Autoroot from the play store (or think you can find it here).
Otherwise, you can flash a kernel with Odin (Corn for GB, Speedmod for Froyo) and enable root in recovery.

did I do the wrong gapps?
Try this:
- do Factory Reset
- clear cache
- clear dalvik
- re-flash CM10.1.3 package
- flash latest Android 4.2.2 gapps 20130812
- reboot in recovery
- do Factory Reset one more time
- clear cache
- clear dalvik
- reboot
See if this helps. Usually solves unexplained FC issues.
Sometimes it's just a bad download. If no luck, try to re-download the packages.

Yes, the phone will still go back to my daughter. It was a testing ground for me, since it is the first time. I will also be rooting and flashing my son's Moto Atrix and my Galaxy Tab 10.1 (first gen) "the one I really wanted to do". I also have my Galaxy S3 and my wifes Galaxy S3, but I wont be touching those just yet. Needed to get my feet wet. Now I need to figure out how to disable the phone feature part of the phones, and other stuff I don't want them to get into.
BTW, my kids are 4 almost 5, so all they need is the games. Using our old phones is much cheaper than buying any kind of game system.
Hey guys, could you please give me a hand? I'm really new so forgive me if I don't express myself correctly!
I was trying to instal CM12, and an error ocurred during instalation and it said "instalation aborted" or something like that. After that it only stays in CWM and I can't reboot. I've wiped cache and dalvik numerous times but it's always the same. I also did factory reset and nothing. I can't seem to load another ROM because the SD drive doesn't show up in my computer even though the phone is conected. What else can I try?
Please help me get out of this, I'm a little freaked out =/
Please? I'm clueless
I'm thinking I need to try to flash the stock ROM with Odin...but I can't enter download mode because as soon as I put the battery in, it reboots to recovery mode. Any ideas?
Thanks!!
if you did nandroid backup before flashing you should be able to flash that, you would be better off using twrp for flashing this rom
I didn't do nandroid backup, it wasn't a step in the guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2400123)
So I hope I'll be able to flash it anyway? I'm following these steps now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159660
I figured the problem was using CWM and not TWRP =/
ok, let us know how you get on. always follow instructions for each rom, and do backup just incase a problem arises. what rom were you using before trying to flash this one?. dont forget cm12 is based on lollipop which isnt really meant for our phone.
Thanks! I'm downloading a stock rom, but it's taking forever. Is it normal that it downloads at 40 kbps? It's taking like 4 hours this way =/ I suppose there is nothing faster except paying for a premium account? I also tried it from other sites but download speeds are terrible. My connection is not so bad...
Anyway, I had CM 11. Once I get ti back (fingers crossed) I figure I'll try CM 12 again, this time with TWRP.
Thanks for the help!
ok, go here....http://www.sammobile.com/....and d/l the latest firmware for your region & carrier, then flash using odin, dont flash a stock-based rom, this will take ur fone back to original, then root & flash custom rom......carefully....
It worked!! Finally!! Thanks a lot, I'll do it more carefully next time, but I'll be stuck with this stock ROM for a little while. One last question, how important was it that it wasn't the one for my country? I didn't find one and I flashed a Romanian one...phone is working fine though!
Yea should be fine, glad I could help, walk before run, take it easy... Enjoy the ride....

All rom's are multilanguage, only difference you can see in baseband. Sometimes on different contries basebad can work more stability than others. Thats all.
If you want experiment wtih install some custom rom use twrp from novafusion site. Its bringing to use with different filesystem and give to you simple and easy manager to get backup your data and get it back when something goes wrong. Remember, Do backup your Efs/imei, boot before flash something on external memory. If you loose without backup this data, you get tablet to tap on something without calling, mobile internet, wifi.
