I am running Vegen 5.1, I did the market fix, Everything was working fine.
I tried to buy bejeweled, and for some reason it would not download, It kept saying the download is starting, and it would show the downloading arrow in the notifications for about 3 seconds, then disappear, and nothing downloads.
Now I have tried to download different apps, and nothing will download?
I have ran thru the market fix steps 2 times again now, and that does not work.
Please can someone help me?
Common issue tonight....dont panic. I am guessing it relates to Googles conference Wednesday. Perhaps they are doing something. I had the issue...rebooted and was able to download the app I couldnt previously.

Sounds like issue with your SD partition. You will need to repartition your internal to 2048/0. This is documented on the first post of the Vegan thread.
Well, I tried to do some stuff, and now I am stuck in bootloop.
On market Help from google, it said to go the mangae Apps Markey, and uninstall update.
So I did that.
Then I rebooted.
Then I did Market Fix steps.
Then I rebooted, now all it does is continue to boot.
Anyone? Please?
what im so lost
best actionis to install sgs tools apk. Apply script, market fix
Ok, I did the partition.
Now it boots back up, however everything looks like I just did a factoy reset, and things still don't download.
Where do I find sgs tools apk. Apply script, market fix
Market is having issues for ever device, including market supported phones...randomly tonight. Possible cause = Google conference tomorrow and possible market enhancements being announced.

I see, so I created a bunch of work for myself in the name of learning.
I bascially just started ever with the reinstalling of the rom.
On the plus side, when you learn the most is when things go wrong. And I feel your pain - I had to reload everything from a bootloop as well

I had the same problem last night. I got it to download by going into settings/applications/system applications and clearing the data in the download manager. I had to do it for every download. BTW It seems to be working fine this morning.
...in the same boat

Hi all,
I didn't want to start a new thread but I hope someone sees this one as the main title is not descriptive at all.
I got my new gtablet three days ago (not a woot) and have been trying different roms (TNT 4.3.1 / Vegan 5.1) with no luck in the android market. As in the first topic, I tried the fixes for the market, clearing cache, data, even re-partitioning to make sure partition was 2048 | 0, turning off firewall in my router... EVERYTHING! I can see all the applications but as soon as I click to install it keeps in "starting downloading..." and could be there for hours without downloading a single bit.
Early in this topic the speculation was a google conference taking place but... that was February! Is anybody experimenting the same (frustration, haha)? How can I identify where the problem could be?
Thanks in advanece!

Hey
Hello sachin, I have a similar problem. I would recommend you please do not install non-hcl market apps in the tablet. I am just back from the service center. Deposited the tablet today. The internal memory has a write problem & no matter how much i tried, the settings & the non-market apps i installed are not removing/changing. The tablet is good but i am responsible for screwing it up. Have patience & let the developers release a custom rom or mod for the U1.

It was the 4th day after the purchase. i installed everything i could in it through apk files. I once connected a 3g tata docomo stick in it & bamm!! It was blank! I read the manual & pressed the reset switch with a pin & it worked. The tab booted up & to my surprise no matter how much i tried i could not uninstall any of the applications, change any of the settings. As if it got write protected. Whenever i rebooted the tab it came back in the same state, read-only. The service center people are saying it maybe replaced. What do you think i should do? Does this have to do something with the root? I tried to install the 4 apk file google play setup (one by one install). I even connected it to the pc & formatted the inbuilt memory but it all came back astonishingly!

Hmm,
Have you tried to factory data reset?
Tried that a lot of times. no luck! Its a lemon now. Lets see if HCL replaces it. I know it could be my fault. Do you think installing the apps has done this? I think the 3g dongle has something to do with this? or maybe it was a defective piece. I am waiting for their call. Lets see what happens

Well i have 40+ apps downloaded but i have not faced this issue..
I have not tried dongle yet..
Hmm thats a sad situation.
Can you tell me what all you tried putting and removing since u bought this tab??
Like rooting. and apps and what kind of mods u tried does not matter they passed or failed.
Let me know .
Yes i was surprised it got screwed. things like these dont happen in androids. Anyways i am thinking it was a defective piece.
I installed the step by step four apk android market installer, another normal google play .apk file, all sorts of apps from apktops.com etc. It was working fine. It just got hanged once when i plugged in the stick & after resetting it from that position everything went wrong after that. as if the tab went into read-only mode. I could not change the settings or remove/install any apps. After every reboot it went back into that state. I think it has something to do with encrypt. Check you tab settings & tell me what do you think about encrypt??
The service center people are yet to call me. I hope they replace it.
Once it also gave me an error like "key chain not responding" or something. After that is got screwed.

It seems like that you encrypted your tab first and then during reset it might have changed the file settings to read only mode.
Dont worry its a software issue, they will fix it.
May be its a glitch with their software only. May be they have not done the proper testing before releasing the tab out in the market.
What i would suggest dont think its ur mistake tell them its their mistake.
Dont tell them you downloaded apps from different source.
Hopefully everything should be fine.
Can you tell me
1)Were you able to use google play market properly?
2)Did u face this issue that if you run some apps the screen goes upside down. I mean to say we have ME written at the top and when i run some apps the screen needs to be rotated 180 degrees to make it run properly.
I dont think the service center people have enough knowledge about the new tablet. I had a talk with their technician & he said it might be replaced. I was expecting it as its a new launch & its ICS. actually i saved a few apk files on the internal memory & as you know no matter how much i tired i cannot delete them. So that is worrying me as they will find out & confront me for the same.
Google play did worked but whenever i tried to install any app from it, it crashed & then didnt run again (until reinstall) & i got the error message "stopped unexpectedly" or something. I guess it needed root access because the tab was not permitting any non-hcl market apps to run on it.
And for your 2nd question, maybe that did happen but i didnt realize it because i used the tab just for 3 days & its hard to recall what i did.

Thanks! It means google play never worked. Actually in order to make it work it needs to be installed using the rom installation and some files needs to be changed as well to make it work.
As far as hcl support is concerned , all i can say they are horrible , i spoke to a tech support guy and he said i can install any app using google he wanted to say if the app is not there in the market i can download it from google with the extension apk and i can use it . he also confirmed it would not void the warranty .
I asked him for pc software and guess what he said. Sir you find the software on google. Then i told him to share the link then he gave some sendspace link which was not working. As i am working and i dont have access to the tablet right now. They were insisting on the serial number of the tablet which i was not carrying while i was calling them up.
Dont worry about your tab , it willl be fine.
I am looking for someone who can help me in rooting this device. it seems like this tab is not rooted yet. I have an app root check it says device is rooted but when i go to cache folder its all empty and when i try to go there using shell it says access denied.
ANY developer here who is willing to help us???
I can give Team viewer access along with tab connected and a a coffee or beer anything the developer likes.
can`t root this devica. plz help
I`m also having same kind of problems. Can`t run google play on it. I have tried to root with z4root, and with some other tools. But nothing worked. plz help.
Guys,
I have contacted one of the developers to make root software for this.
I have told them i will pay them 10 dollars, if you want to contribute something to that developer then let me know. I will pass your message to him.
As far as the progress is concerned. i have given him the dump of my tab.
Lets see
Thats great sachin. Am still waiting for my tab. Didnt get any call from HCL. They told me it will take about a week for replacement. Lets standby & wait for my one to arrive.
Guys,
Good news!!
I have got a reply from the dev team and they are saying it would be relatively easy to root it.
I have given them system dump + system.txt file
They working on it.

Hi guys, I recently soft bricked my sidekick4G (because I'm new to the sidekick and stupidly didn't do enough research) after installing a ROM.
The Easy One-Click Root program rooted my phone, but for some reason wouldn't pop up any super user notifications, so I went into super user and checked the allow all; that seemed to work for installing my third party apps like Root Explorer.
So I remember I installed the red CWM or w.e it's called (Voodoo?) and that work fine, I can still enter it, I can also enter the orange CWM by applying the "sdcard:update.zip" (Which I thought to be forbidden).
So here I am now getting a robotic woman's voice on every boot saying "Convert data partition, system not available"
I know I need to use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1186954 to go into download mode and install ODIN,
SO.... My problem is that I cannot find the StockKG2ODIN.tar.md5 file ANYWHERE, all megaupload websites blocked it, and risky torrents have already pissed me off enough.
If any of you have this file, can you Please, PLEASE attach it or upload it, or find a working link for me? I would really, really appreciate it.
Or
If there are any other alternatives to fix the dilemma I'm in, please let me know, as I am new to the Sidekick 4G.
Thank You Guys! And I can promise some THANKS for you too if you help me out =)
I just flashed 6.1.1.b.1.54 via flashtools and this message 'all check points reached' is in the status bar, I can't figure how to get rid of it.
anyone know what it is??
I ran into the same 'problem', and figured it had to do with Wisepilot. But then I couldn't even find that anymore, I'm guessing it was removed at some point?
The solution I found was to freeze (or delete) com.sonyericsson.startupflagservice (/system/app/StartupFlagV2.apk), though not sure if that was used for other things as well :silly:

So, apologies where due if I could have simply searched for this answer, but I can't seem to find it. If that makes me a big fat idiot for just not searching right, then I'll take my punishment and sit in the corner wearing the stupid hat.
Meanwhile, I'm getting somewhat desperate.
The scenario is this:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, running Android 6.0.1, which I rooted using ChainFire's CF-AutoRoot. I've enjoyed using the phone for about 6 months and life has been good. Yesterday, someone suggested I reboot it after I mentioned I thought the battery was starting to drain a bit faster than I liked, .... and lo and behold, having used that stupid biometrical fingerprint thing for about half a year, I just couldn't remember my password.
So yes, I'm an idiot. But it gets worse.
Having rooted my phone, I thought I could fix this! I found some guide which probably pertained more to CyanogenMod saying I might delete the *.key files in /data/system (specifically, there was gatekeeper.password.key and gatekeeper.pattern.key) So I did (well, I moved them away)! That didn't work very well, so I tried moving the files back, and that didn't help at all!
What I'm stuck with is a screen telling me I have to log on to the last Google account the phone was registered to before I'm able to use it. Not only has the phone never been used to connect to Google (yes, I'm weird and paranoid), but I don't even have the original Google Play stuff installed (I've been running microG GsmCore instead) I've thought about trying to reflash the stock firmware, but that would probably lead to me losing root, which at this point at least seems to grant me more options.
What is a way out of this predicament? I can still access my /data partition through adb, so I guess I could backup all of that prior to doing something invasive, but I just don't know what's the next step from here.
Also; I've seen videos mentioning some .apk to be downloaded from vnrom.net, but I'm skeptical of running a 3rd party .apk on my phone without someone vouching for it; it seems to me that the state of the phone, having not been logged in to a Google account ever, cannot truly be contingent on some online handshake; there's got to be something I can do locally, or so I hope.
I throw myself at your feet, XDA. Please help!
EDIT: (hah, I can edit! Wouldn't have replied to myself if I knew that!) Additionally, if this is the wrong place to ask for this kind of help, but another, better place exists; please, please, help guide me there. My phone is certainly not in actuality bricked, but for all intents and purposes, that's how it feels. Help right this ship, someone!
I forgot to mention, although I don't know if it's any help, that I've got TWRP installed. So any tricks to be done via a custom recovery might be available to me, if I just knew what they were!

You should hard reset
Hi chap
God don't you just hate password, I am always for getting mine.
I would Setup a google account on a computer to start with at most you will have a google account that you are being asked for?
Its what I would try any way
log on to google from your computer, and ask to reset your password?
use the same email address you use to setup google account and you can reset your password.
You will have a password the one you have just setup?
I think it should work, and trying it your not changing any thing on the phone only setting up a google account to get a password.
get the password log on then reset password you the have old and new password.
Like I have said I only think this may work.
hope you get it working
Go to /data/system in TWRP and delete all .key and also all files of the type locksettings.db.
If that does not help flash this zip in TWRP, all it does is delete all those files automatically and a few more related to fingerprint, found it on XDA but I do not remember the thread.
Hi folks! Thanks so much for replying to me.

Now, my concern is, the phone seems to think this has already happened. Are you certain that a "factory reset" is going to solve my problems? (please note, I didn't actually perform one yet, I just deleted /data/system/*.key and then rebooted, and now my phone doesn't want to be friends)
