[Q] CM10 Alpha gapps not working - Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh

Hello XDA
i received an old milestone and managed to install the nadlabak CM10 alpha preview http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1941570
i know its an alpha version and its not intended for daily use and some stuff might fail but i have some messages like "gallery app stoped working" or "voice seach stoped working"
i was concerned because i found nothing about them not working in the thread. so its this only happening to me? or its a know issue
btw this is my first android phone and my first time installing a custom rom i think everything went flawless and im very happy whit the results kudos to all developers hope to be helping in a future if i become a little more expert whit the system.
greetings and sorry if my english was a little clumsy u.u

I guess you don't have ext partition on your sd-card. It is needed for CM10 because it doesn't fit into the internal memory.
HERE is a guide about how to create an sd-ext partition. Section 4.
Recommended size is 512MB or more.
(BTW, it is pretty stable, i use it as a daily driver without any major problem.)

Did you wipe data (factory reset) before installation?

worked

TYVM i increased the size of the ext partition and no more problems whit the gapps closing suddendly
another question i see the updates on this version are coming almost daily if i download a newest build and install them via OR do i have to make a nandroid everytime to backup data? or keep just one when it was working fine?
i mean even if i dont make the nandroid and apply the update just like the guide says im gonna keep my apps and data so i dont have to reinstall them again?
aaand another... any chance to get a changelog? been loking for one but Skrilax make it very clear "Do NOT e-mail me about the ROM, for changelog"
for bug submission right here in the forum i guess
you are right the system was kinda heavy when i was downloading apps and stuff but now that everything its in his place it goes really smooth impressive for a 3 year old phone
thx for the help really apreciated =D

If you want your datas super-safe, then make a nandroid before flashing.
Altough it doesn't necessary, you can just flash the new daily and wipe cache and dalvik-cache.

Gingerbread on X1!!! Neo Peek did it again!!!

copy and past from neo peek site:
Ooops WE did it again...
My wife's still knocking my brain saying I am an idiot (while writing this she stands behind me). I spent some hours yesterday and several hours during the night cause I know everyone wanna try this out. I want especially say thanx to Chann who always is inspiring me with his ideas while I am doing some nice conversations with him on dev-section of this forum. It's really helpful to have such kind of member here.
Someone please upload this for China-Users to U115...
Alpha1-release 28-12-2010
Before continuing be aware of: This is an Alpha release and now it seems usable (on my HTC Diamond it is!)! So before you do anything I suggest you to make a backup of your data / files! So read everything careful now :
What's inside ?? :
Gingerbread 2.3
Working: Wifi, Data, Phone, SD-Card
BT activating produces reboot (needs fix)
Includes seandean's kernel V4b
3D is buggy. Al in all we have to find several fixes. But hey for an Alpha it's ok!
Important now!!!!!! Read:
First boot takes quite some time!
I suggest you to open all apps and sync your account with google. Then reboot your device!
Alpha Release dated 28-12-2010

Thanks would try it very soon
good,,,,,i like it
So is this for x1, or diamond?
It clearly says its for HTC Diamond...I am pretty impressed with the speed of ths development....and i am pretty hooked on to thge last version by NEOPEEK..so i guess I wil stick to it for a while...
Lokking at the file names on Multiupload you will see that this is for X1:

This is alpha version, but look for other devices. We still get lucky that gingerbread can run on our devices (thanks to developer). I believe that developers still trying to fix the bug, so I think it'll be better in futures builds. You can try another build that have less bug(froyo,eclair,etc). And always remember that this Gingerbread builds are still alpha version to our devices.
Ready to try and share. Great worked team.

It's not too fascinating but it has been lucky that it's working...
I hope it won't destroy my SD card like my previous experience with android.
hey mymailx you can recover your lost fat23 partion using any recovery programe like [email protected] undelete ,,, then restore ur lost ext2 partion using Minitool partition wizard home edition .. u should only make a new swaplinux partion and u'll find everthing like it was ...
so no destruction ...

My card isn't detected in minipartition somewhat, try any formatter program and the card still not detected so I called it destroyed. Anyway, I forgot to tell you that this isn't caused by android neopeek but faryaab. However they are android.
Am I dumb?
I have followed instruction here: www[dot] neopeek[dot] com/forum/Questions-Guides--HowTos--Tutorials/524-The-Mother-Tutorial---How-tosWheresWhens---All-right-here!#525
- Make 400MB FAT32 Partition and 400MB EXT2 Partition (I have only 1 GB MicroSD), both of them set as primary
- Copy evrything to root of FAT32 Partition
- Run install.exe from npkinstall
- reboot
- Run haret.exe
- reboot, back to windows, no android logo as it describes in the tutorial
I made a mistake? where?
Edit: last command when I execute haret.exe --> unable to read partition table
I change the SD to 2GB then I have allocate:
1GB Fat32
600MB EXt2
Remnant space Linux Swap
Anyone please let me know what to do???? I've been waiting 3 hours in stupid...
Awsome, very apreciate

once you choose app2ext,you should reboot your phone,then install the apps.
otherwise they will desapear
Ok. I'm actually on this ROM now, and have been for a couple weeks. Despite the fact that the thread says to NOT use Firerat's ALL in ONE patch, you need to. The options you want to use are 2, 4, and 10 ONLY! Nothing else. This will force apps2ext to work on this phone/ROM combo. I thought all of this was fixed in version 5 of the ROM, but not sure. Any questions, the email is in my info to the left.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
just flashed mine to the version 5.1 from previously ezGingerbread.
So far I can say the install on sd-ext functioned. Just set it to sd-ext and reboot.
Btw I don't install any AIO from Firerat as it is not advised to do so
Ok for me i partitioned again my sd using gparted and now everything work. I think the problem come from RA partitioning.

Take it from not only Tribal but from myself who are two very experienced members, if you don't want your data partition to be eaten up rather quickly then run the AIO patch options 2, 4 & 10 when you flash the rom, tried and fully tested working.

hurmm, could u please elaborate a little bit as i can't really see why my data partition will be filled up quickly.
As for now, every apps that I've installed, just go nicely into the sd-ext partition. (actually I've already read the comment about AIO patch in FroyoByLazslo thread, but just couldn't make my mind) .
And if it is really needed, should I reflashed everything back or I can just run the AIO? Thank you in advance
Update : I've tried the script AIO but got an error saying that MT3G dalvik-cache didn't need to be bind. It is normal ?

i would like to know this too..
You can just run the patch. No need to re-install everything.
Basically, the patch forces your ext partition to mount. Options 2 and 4 kind of work hand in hand with each other, while option 10 is a dalvik cache bind point. If you get an error with option 10, disregard.
In forcing the mount of ext, this ensures that future apps continue to properly install on the ext partition. they will still have a bind point, so don't fret. This is MUCH better than the ext option "possibly" messing up and your precious internal storage gets eaten away. While this has probably been fixed by now, since they are now in version 5.2 at the time of this post, I take no chances. LOL..

Nexus One internal storage low

So out of curiousity I backed up all of my apps using titanium backup and installed the new MIUI Rom based on ICS. It kept crashing because for some reason the internal storage filled up. Now I re-installed CM7.1, but my internal storage is again almost full.
My question is, what can I do? I moved ALL my apps to my SD card before I even installed MIUI and before I installed MIUI, I had 170mb free. Actually while typing this I realized that I guess MIUI didn't remove CM7 when it installed or something... hmm. Anyway any help is appreciated, and be gentle this is my first post.
Also android.process.acore keeps stopping.
did you wipe data/factory reset,cache and dalvik cache atleast 3 times before flashing new rom???
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
Do it 4x, just to be sure
Each apk (program) on your system has a corresponding entry in the dalvik-cache that gets generated from the .apk. If your storage (/data) filled up things are going to be broken in all sorts of ways, including the inability to make the dalvik caches. Since you didn't format between ROMs, you'll also run into permission issues and settings that don't make sense in the new ROM. Cyanogen uses an alternate location (/cache) for the dalvik-cache for system apps, I don't know if MIUI does, but that could be some of the difference in space. Duplicating data for the same .apks in different ROMs could've also filled up your space. It's best to format all the phone partitions to not worry about this stuff. Usually you're safe not formatting /sdcard, but some ROMs are picky. Some ROM install scripts don't format /system and that leads to BIG headaches. If you format all the partitions, then you don't need to worry about clearing user data/battery stats/dalvik-cache because that was already handled when you formatted the storage that contained that data.
tl;dr: Fix permissions after installing a new ROM. If the old and new ROMs are different enough, everything will still be broken because you made the android gods angry. Sacrifice (format) /system, /data, and /cache (and sd-ext if you have it) *before* installing the new ROM and things should be fine.
Haven't used MIUI for awhile, but didn't think it had an ICS version. There is one in XDA, but it is not stable and I think requires blackrose hboot and differnet partition sizes for hboot. It also runs a2sd on reboot i think?
CM7 uses Dark Tremor beta4, that's what I use. It needs flashed after rom and scripts run to move apps. Check out their site
As suggested format all including system and format sd card with sdformatter, full erase and size adjustment on and set up 1gb ext 0 swap
copy sdcard and have a good nandroid first

MIUI has both blackrose and non blackrose version of ICS

right, but one is unstable and he can't keep his ics partition if flashing non ics one
I've tried the latest versions and both br and non-br ones seemed have problem with data connectivity. Some others have experienced the same. Thought the dev's investigating it. But, previous version, i.e. 2.3.2, worked fine.
Try non-br 2.3.2 with 185/85/166 partition layout, that was great.
Sent from my Nexus One
Having similar issues with ICS MiUI which really seems rather unstable (v2.3.2), and going to flash the latest update from a few days ago (v2.3.9).
Any suggestions on how to deal with some of the stock MiUI "bloatware" that comes with it and seems stuck on the system ROM? A2SD is supposed to be enabled, but unless stuff I dowload off market/play or restore is deemed systems apps, which I doubt is the case, I can't seem to choose to move them to SD card or in this case the "USB Storage" (Sorry, my postcount's too low to post on the actual MiUI Dev thread)
Also, as a sidetrack, does anyone know how best I can sieve through my contacts storage/DB? recently I think i might've accidentally synched with my FB countacts and it seems to have bloated up to 16-18+Mb which is alot from the previous 10-12Mb or less from what I recall. Is there an app or something to help 'manage" it better or do I have to manually go through and get rid of excess contact info on the phone or from my Google contacts list?
Thanks in advance for any advice you guys might have.

pls help! darktremor, s2e,link2sd??? cant understand

1)in link2sd it worked at first but internal memory kept on increasing but i was still able to install.( i have partition of 4096) however after downloading many apps(over 100) the rom kept on rebooting and i had to wipe data ,cache, dalvik cache. i had experienced same problem on stock rom.
2)s2e and darktremor i cant understand what to do in darktremor app2sdgui or terminal emulator i dont know what to do.
all i want is to move apps to sd partition i dont care how i just want free internal memory.
on any of the above methods if u can help me or even post a link ill be grateful.

F*ck yeah... you crazy... over 100 apps ? !
Try this. Darktremor automatically put apps to sd-card.
but this rom is running on 2.3.7(although with ics/jb interface) the guide u gave me is for cm9 or 10.
ps some of those apps were very small like chainfire etc

I am testing Milaq's CM-11 KitKat rom on one of my 5 Touchpads. I love the new rom but since I am not allowed to comment on the developers thread I am reporting a bug that has not been discussed on the development thread. If an Mpeg4 video file is placed in a file the gallery app will crash the operating system and cause a re-boot. If this is not the correct forum please direct me to where I should report bugs. I have already read the development tread from beginning to end.

I just flashed 20140113 and can report 2 problems. The mp4 video file just being located on the system still crashes gallery even if it is not selected. Google+ dousnot work either. It displays a message to reinstall it. There is no option to delete it. Play Store has been working OK for me since I flashed Milaq's 1208 gapps. I tried using newer gapps but they must be installed on top of the ROM or they cause boot loops. Try using the 1208 gapps and Google Play should work. I also tried using invisiblek's ROM but found it to be unstable.
I am using 1208 gapps, but they were installed with the previous ROM, not over top of the newest nightly. I'll give that a shot when I get home tonight, thanks for the tip.
same issue, 20140113 nightly and 1208 kk gapps over top. Google Play still crashes for me.

check if you have /cache partition mounted
I'm not exactly sure how to check if /cache is mounted, but in settings>storage, I see cached data 22.29mb, does that count?
using webOS tailor, the cache partition is set at 200mb
I downloaded "partition table" from the play store which took a few tries since the play store crashes for me on this rom.
yes /cache is mounted and active

While waiting for the next ROM I tried using different GAPPS with this ROM. If I use a GAPPS package specific to 4.4.2 things like GOOGLE+ start to work but create other problems like boot loops and crashes. I have gone back to the 1208 gapps but I think this rom needs an update of the gapps to android 4.4.2. specific to the touchpad. At any rate it appears one must do a clean install when changing gapps by doing a complete reset. just make sure you keep your nandroid backups or you may have to do an acme uninstall followed by a new install since the external (WEBOS) is not accessible from the new datamedia CWM. I used Tailor in Webos to leave just enough space for webos and allocated most of my memory to Android storage. I'm waiting to see if a future ROM will fix the reboot from MP4 video file being installed before I can use this ROM as a daily driver. Thanks to Milaq and supporting developers my entire family are now equipped with HP Touchpads.

The mp4 video gallery crash problem is resolved in 20140117. Google+ still not working. This ROM is getting close to daily driver status.
After 2 years working with the Touchpad and coming from early versions of CyanogenMod I thought I would install Milaqs CM11. As I can't post in the developer forum I thought I would share my experience with those that might find it useful..... Simply flashing a CM11 4.4 ROM (clean or dirty flash) means you end up with a messed up storage sd card partition layout and actually a system which isn't really usable in the long run, so forget it. However, with patience there is a way around this though, as Milaq rightly states in his original post and that is to re-partition the drive (sd card) so the maximum amount is given over to data as opposed to media storage, this means that when the 4.4 rom is flashed it sees the whole of the sd card and treats it as a single drive which is the way its all going using new datamedia builds. This however is not straightforward and takes some thinking about, but it can be done and is well worth it in the long run. I suggest that RolandDeschain79 really needs to update this and other posts as it is misleading to let people think they can simply flash 4.4 - CM11 following his guides - as you really should not, especially as the newer kernels are being used. The video tutorials created by Roland are great and have helped the TP community a lot but I would like to suggest that a whole new video is created (the existing one is good but could be improved tremendously, having done it myself) to fully explain re-partitioning with 'Tailor' (this is the only way to do it forget all other ways using Apes flashable fixes and the like as they do not work properly). Sideloading the ROM and Gapps using ADB from recovery using the feature in CWM 6.0.4.6, is really the only proper way to install CM11 KitKat on the Touchpad and at same time make use of all of its internal storage capability in one simple easy to navigate installation, without silly emulated card space etc. I will help others where I can as I just spent a whole day figuring it all out and now have a 32GB Touchpad that runs Milaq's CM11 the way it should be, its fantastic and well worth the effort.

I flashed 20140118 tonight. The only thing I can find that does not work is Google+. It still displays an error message to reinstall the Google+ app. Since it is part of the 1208 gapps and not a download I don't see a way to delete it. Is anyone else experienceing the same issue?

Its all installed on a single partition making most efficient use of the layout and storage capability. No need to move apps onto sd card and all that nonsense . It is very fast and makes cm10 seem so yesterday
frostysnowman, do you have a good tutorial available detailing how to properly sideload the ROM?
sdcard not mounted - milaq's CM11 - 1/18
I have been using milaq's cm11 nightlies, after first week of Jan14 my sdcard1 (another partition on TP) stop showing on file explorer.
However, when I installed invisiblek nightlie (ofcos with 3.4 kernel cwm), start showing the sdcard1 partition.
based on my analysis milaq's 'init.tenderloin.rc' file do not have entries to mount the sdcard1.
Appreciate any kind of help.

If you have any backups saved you can restore one that had access to both sd0 and sd1. Use file manager to move the files you need from sd1 to sd0. Restore the new ROM and you will have your files on sd0. When you are ready to stay with cm-11 go back to webos and use Tailor to shrink the external SD to just enough to support your webos and allocate the remainder of memory to Android storage. With the new data media cwm just use sd0 for everything.

Thanks John!
How much space I should left on sd1 for WebOS?
Also, I am trying to settled myself with invisiblek's rom, where my another partition (sdcard1) shows mounted (& accessible)
In terms of help, to be specific, how can I mount the another partition (sdcard1), once the rom is running. I mean is there way via TerminalEmulation, etc?
Another purpose about the post is to drag milaq's attention for the point/matter.
Again thanks for your help.:good:

Ashman - Once you commit to Milaq's cm-11 rom there is no way to access SD1 from Android since he does not mount it. The amount of space you allocate to the external sd card in Tailor for webos would depend on the amount of apps and files you want to save for webos. I left a back door on my Touchpad by leaving 1 old backup in place that supports both sd1 and sd0. This allows me to place a zip file on sd1 with webos and move it to sd0 with file manager under the old version restored when needed. At any rate I understand Milaq's logic that once we move over to a data media recovery every thing Android can use sd0 as one big chunk of memory.
