Hanging on Install/Uninstall

Disclaimer: did several forum searches and google searches and came up empty, so if I missed the exact wording and this is covered elsewhere please don't flame me into oblivion.
For some reason my Nexus One running FRF85B is unable to install or uninstall any apk's. It just hangs at the installing... or uninstalling... respectively. Has anyone else ever seen that?
Installing has always been really darn quick. Now it just appears to be hanging.
EDIT: Adding new symptom: "Manage Applications" shows the apps installed , but their space is forever listed as "Computing...". It's like the manage applications service is just hosed.

I have seen that as well. I would have to exit (back or home) then when I got back to the applications screen again it wouldn't have to load at all.

Same here, AT&T Nexus One using FRF85B.
The weird thing is, the app(s) actually DO uninstall or install correctly, just that the Market page shows it's not, and hangs at it.
When I force stop the market, then relaunch and check my downloads, they're now reset to the correct info.

Well I'm glad it is not just me. Thinking it was a bad ROM I reinstalled (with complete wipe) Modaco's ROM, then stock Froyo, etc.
Problem went away when I just said screw it and installed CM 5.0.8.
The only problem that persists now is the server error going to the downloads tab of the market. I can't seem to lick that one even though apps download and install fine from the market.
On a side note CM5.0.8 still is snappier than Froyo. I'm salivating at the thought of CM6.
If anyone is also getting persistent errors with the market downloads tab, please chime in. I find it suspicious that I'm having this problem regardless of which ROM is installed.

No matter what I do I still get the server error in the Android Market application when I go to the downloads tab.
I've re-flashed the Froyo Radio and tried both CM 5.0.8 and Froyo.
I don't see others complaining about this so I have to imagine there's something wrong on my end. I just don't know how to diagnose it. Does anyone have any ideas? At All?

I did see that in the CM 5.0.8 ROM, but Froyo is a complete no-go. I've reflashed the radio, and have been using Modaco's ROM because it is the only one I know of that is just a rooted update I can flash with Amon-RA's recovery, but still no luck.
This is scary.

UPDATE
I went all the way back to Stock, Unrooted 2.1 from January, and still get the server error in the downloads page of the Market app. So for giggles, I wiped, created a new gmail account, and lo and behold, everything works. I could download apps, and they showed up in the download tab as installed.
That pretty much puts an end to thinking it's an app/ROM/radio problem, I think.
I then wiped again, went through initial setup with my primary Google account and I'm back to server errors on the downloads tab.
I guess maybe it really IS a server error. Don't know what I can do about it, except gripe...but at least I can stop scratching my head over what ROM/Radio is installed.

After several days of experimenting, the fact is that on any Froyo rom, whether it's stock or rooted, google's or cyanogen's, wiped or not wiped, new gmail account or existing gmail account, what I'm seeing is that, even if I wipe, go into Android and DO NOT enter a google account, going straight to settings | Manage Applications | running applications, shows "Computing..." forever.
Now, if I do a full wipe, it doesn't know anything about my account, right? And the cache, and all that are all wiped. So, what could possibly cause the infinite "Computing..." in the apps?
Does anyone know?

It happened to me as well last night. I was installing an apk (updating over an older version), and it showed "Installing...." forever. No hardware button gave me any response and I eventually had to reboot the machine by pressing the 3 buttons (luckily this worked. I really hate the thought of pulling the battery out...). After the reboot I tried again and it installed without a problem.
I m on a stock Nexus One FRF91, never hv an issue b4 that latest system update. Looks like it is bringing more issues to me...

what 3 buttons reboot the phone?

The same thing is happening to me. When trying to install any market app, it just hangs at "installing. I have to reboot the phone to get it to stop doing it.
Every once in a while, about 1 out of 15 times, I can get an app to install correctly and quickly, but all the other times it hangs.
It started happening when going to froyo. I have tried several different froyo mods and the same thing happens on all of them. When I nandroid back to 2.1 it is fine.
It happens to me with the Rodriguezstyle mod, the Kang-O_rama mod and the evil n-one shot Noir mod.

In order to fix this issue. You MUST do the following steps:
1. Wipe the SD card.
2. Wipe ext partition (if there)
3. Delete spareparts if you have it ANYWHERE on the system
4. Reboot the system into recovery
5. Wipe all cache's
Tada! Fixed!
This fixed it for me on Kang-O-Rama.
I belive the problem is when moving ROMs and the new app2SD feature stores files on the SD. When moving ROM's, it try's to scan them but fails. Something is stuck in a loop and wont stop .
When taking out the SD card, it ALL works flawlessly (give it a go if you need to install some apps to help)

Press the trackball, volume down and the power button all at the same time.
If you have root then the app quick boot is a one click solution.

When I was or do have a stalling at the install. I clear the market data and this works for me. I also try to keep the cache clear.

Try fixing permissions or uninstall with titanium pro and reinstall with play store
Also try wiping the data in titanium

Not an ICS issue... got my ICS LPY update over the air a while back, and have had no map problems since.

Easy, go to settings, applications, go to maps an click it, select delete data, try if still crashes. If it does, do delete data again, then uninstall and reinstall from play store. Test again, that should work

same problem
I have exactly the same problem. I have updated my Note from the latest gingerbread to the stock german ICS. After installation was completed I have noticed that Maps are constantly crashing. Google maps will locate my position and try to load map.. Everything is really choppy and after a while app will stop responding altogether and crash.
So.. at first I tough that it may be ICS ROM bug, so I have reverted back to the old ROM. I have wiped out user data,cash, etc.
I have also tried above mentioned method (posted by baz77) of uninstalling app, but nothing has changed.
I searched all over the internet, and found that there are more people suffering from this bug.
Any idea what's going on?? Thanks. I am becoming really desperate..

Fixed.
I followed Baz77's suggestion (adding a cache clear as well) and Maps is now working fine.

It worked, but only for a while. After I have uninstalled updates, removed app data, I was able to make it work. Everything was smooth but after about one minute scrolling became choppy and few second later app stopped responding and crashed. How is it possible that even different ROM didn't help? I tough that when I set "wipe data/factory reset", it would erase all stored system data..

Problem solved
Ok, so this thread can now be officially closed. I have once again uninstalled Maps and it's updates. Because I have done it so many times before, I have completely resigned and stopped wasting my time with it. My phone has run out of juice (guess why), so I left it on charger for several hours. After I have unplugged it, an update notification for Maps pops up. I sad OK to myself.. why not to try it once more.
And to my great surprise, IT WORKED this time. I have no idea WHY, but it just did. Maybe system needed some time to remove registry settings/kill process or something like that. I have restarted Note few times before with no success.
Or maybe Google has made some changes to update file in meantime, but that's unlikely.
Anyway..
Thanks everyone for help. Drinks are on me

Help Needed

I am getting a strange error on my phone. Until a week ago Google play store was working perfectly on my phone but now suddenly whenever I try to use it, it says unfortunately stopped all the time.
The only way I can use it by uninstalling updates but whenever I do that, the play store automatically updates, I have performed a clean wipe and reinstalled the rom, still no luck.
I am using chroma rom, 5.0.2 build, the final version
Any help is appreciated.

How about your google play services, does that need to be updated? My version is 7.0.99 and I am on version 5.4.10 of the play store

Maybe try a different gapps zip?

Have you tried a different rom/gapps combo? It may make sense to do a nandroid backup and then try a different 5.0.x rom/gapps. If that helps you can probably narrow it down to which software is causing the error.

Thanks for the help guys, I solved the issue, it turned out a layer was causing the problem, I removed it and everything is back to normal.

Google Wallet stuck on newest ROM - Suggestions?

Hello XDA geniuses; If anyone can figure out and provide me some suggestions, its here!
So, I've been running Benzo ROM for the last few months, its perfect for me. I've tried others but have settled on it. In the last update, it required a clean flash, which I did. TWRP -> Advanced Wipe -> System, Data, Dalvik and Cache. Never had an issue before, but in this build I can't use Google Wallet or Tap and Pay.
When I go to start either of those 2 apps, they just sit at the initial screens. Thats all, they just sit there.
I've made sure I'm signed into my account, no ad blocking or security issues I can see. I've wiped and re-flashed 4 times. Made sure I have the right ROM and gapps. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Wallet a bunch of times.
The dev did say in this build he; "AOSP Webview to Google's Webview", hence the clean flash.
Nothing I've tried yet has made any difference. I did a logcat, but did not see anything notable.
And, yes of course I posted this in the ROM forum, unfortunately I've not received much response and figured I would ask in the Help section.
Thanks in advance and if you have any suggestions at all, please let me know. I use Wallet daily and I hate to move off this rom, but I have been trying others and I do rely on Wallet at this point.

Hey Evolution_Tech, super appreciate the feedback! Yes, I tried it again, just to make double sure. I force stopped Wallet, even went into Show Cached Process and killed it. Same thing for both T&P and Wallet; I bring up the app, it goes to the 1st screen and boom just sits. In T&P I cant even press the Display link. So freaking odd.
Again, Thanks!!

Hello; Here is what worked for me, but I have to preface it with make sure you do a good backup. When the Rom I use asked for a full refresh including wiping data, is when I had the issue. I eventually tried it with not wiping data and that's what worked. I think wallet keeps some persistent data there and when you wipe it out, it gets stuck. Good luck.

I will try and make this my last update; I finally got wallet to work with a complete wipe, including data.
I used dev options and found the package in data/data for wallet, its com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel
I copied com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel from data/data into a folder on my sd card. Then I did my clean wipe. I installed wallet and let it build the structure. Then when I tried it, it would hang. I stopped it, then I copied all the files back in from my backup and it worked. I overwrote the files and used es file explorer that had root.
Make sure, as always you have a good backup.
If you have any questions just give me a shout.

[SOLVED] Titanium Backup issue? Play Store doesn't detect my apps

Hi,
After a clean flash I restored my user apps through Titanium backup v8.0.0.
The Play Store doesn't detect my installed apps: https://framapic.org/2B4BI8G6r2xU/KpoiIpq9ondr.png
I installed a new app from the Play Store and I can see it: https://framapic.org/9Kl35z8Hznx2/DBxvbshb27PB.png
I guess it's a TiBu issue. Do you know how I can fix it?
I already tried to clear app data of Google Play Store and Google framework and remove my Gmail account.
With or without Gapps, it's the same issue.
Thanks.

I don't back up my apps to Google servers. I'll try with the previous version of TiBu.
EDIT: after restorting the previous version of TiBu, I can update my apps again from Google Play.
There's definitively something wrong with v8.0.0.
EDIT2: it was a coincidence. Same issue after a new clean flash with TB 7.6.1. Don't know what I have to do to fix this damned problem!
EDIT3: Solved. I flashed a new ROM with Gapps package and done several tests. I'm back on unofficial RR ROM with microG and everything works... Do not ask me what is the final solution...

Strange to see this, as I just clean flashed yesterday and didn't have any issues with TiBu/Market. I'm on 8.0 too. The only thing that I can't see for some reason is the Menu button that should normally be in the upper right next to the paper w/ check on it. I have hardware buttons instead of NavBar (right now), so it is probably linked to that. Trying to get a new feel for the new phone and coming from the Shamu, it's taking me some time.
Something to look at though: take a peep under the Hide tags in my signature and check out the Android_ID link. After a clean flash, the very first thing I do is install Terminal and run that command to restore my AID.
Glad you got it sorted though. I am finding that this device is riddled with all sorts of gremlins.

Yes, very strange. During my various tests I flashed OpenGapps pico package and I saw a blank line while setting up my Gmail account. This blank line (probably a bug) is near a storage icon and it was disabled...
A few days ago I also flashed an OpenGapps package (several microG users - and maybe Gapps users - had FCs with the Play Store so I wanted to test with a Gapps package). I don't remember but maybe I disabled the option at this moment.
So during this clean flash I enabled it. idk if it's related to this mess but I think that's the only thing that can explain that my problem is solved (TiBu v8.0.0).
As for your Menu button, I don't see which button you are talking about. I also use the hw buttons and I have never needed a Menu button.
Coming from the Nexus 5 I spent a lot of time reading the 3/3T forums. Filesystems, encryption, OnePlus specifications (WiFi modules, custom ROM/nandroid backups based on OOS firmwares for instance),... and everything is not fully clear lol. I have all my data backed up on Nextcloud so I can test again and again. It seems to be pretty hard to really brick this device. We just have to be careful while flashing files (a confusion between 3 and 3T could be easy, not all threads are unified, or clicking on the wrong link).
I'm used to installing custom ROMs without restoring the Android ID for more than a year. I doubt this could be related to my problem but I'll give it a try so it happens again, thanks.

Yeah but I don't want to do that for each clean flash

At the end I have this issue each time I clean flash.
Restoring the Android ID doesn't help.
I just wait a moment, clear app data, reboot then the Play Store detects my apps... and I use an addon.d script for dirty flash.
