Flashed to Evil Fascination ver 3.6.0 (previously on EF 3.4.2), all went well, except Amazon Kindle app (v3.0.1.70) force closes when flipping an e-book page.
So far, the system and all other apps function great.
I had tried restoring the Kindle from a Titanium backup as well as uninstalling/re-installing from Android Market. I had also tried clearing the Kindle app cache. I had tried storing Kindle on the phone and on SD card. Still force closes on page flip.
If it matters, I had also flashed: Backup Assistant, Black Google Apps, Adryns fast media scanner hack, and Honeycomb theme. And switching between the included launcher and LG launcher didn't make a difference.
The same Kindle version worked great before, on EF 3.4.2.
The only other thread on the site that's remotely useful is this:
Honeycomb Kindle App FCs
But that's an issue reported on an actual Honeycomb device (though I will try the linked apk next, Kindle 2.0.4).
Ideas?
By the way, Evil Fascination ROM is simply awesome! Kudos to Nitro, Adryn, et al.
You said you wiped app cache, did you also wipe data?
Sent from my Froyo'd Evil Fascinate full of PB&J
Yes; wiped data/factory reset prior to EF flash, as well as clear data+cache for Kindle.
Tried:
- Kindle 3.0.0.56 - same FC
- Kindle 2.0.4.x - works fine, no FC
So, I have a (temporary) solution for now. The old Kindle version serves my purpose.
For anyone else interested, the Kindle 2.0.4 apk is available (linked) on the thread I referenced earlier.

I'm having the same problem as you. But I'm running COM 2.0 and I've never had this issue with 1.3. I know of one other person who has this issue as well. They recently posted on the COM thread. Also the older version you stated works fine for me as well.

I'm having the same issue with the market version of the Kindle app on ComRom 2.0. Turning the page results in a force close. Thanks for pointing us to an older version...hopefully someone figures out what's causing this.

I upgraded from Evil Fascination 3.4.1 to 3.6 and started having this. Kindle FCs when I turn the page. Thinking it was the Rom, I chanced to Com Rom 2.0 and it still occurs. I did clear all data and caches in between the Rom changes.
I am using CwR 2.5, not sure if that matters. I know at least Com Rom is an edify script.
Probably a good idea to post into the threads for those Roms.
confirm this is an issue on ComRom 2.0 as well.
Coming from ComRom 1.3 with ED01 radio, wiped Data and davlik, flashed comrom 2.0, tried both pbj-50 and otb 1.5 versions, Kindle FC's on page turn on both.
There are a couple of folk also reporting the same issue with Kindle in the "[Rom]{6.5.11}[ED01] ComRom 2.0 (ukb) *added a few patches" thread, about post number 373. Like this user, I also have the ReaderTextSelectionMode missing error.
Here is the dumpstate_app_error.log from my Kindle FC.
I'm new to XDA so it won't let me post in Dev forums, otherwise I would also post in the Rom threads.
I can confirm that the FC on page change still occurs with Kindle version 3.0.1.70 on Evil Fascination v3.6.0.
Thanks so much for pointing us to older versions of Kindle!
ComRom 2.1 fixes this problem. I am now running the latest Kindle app and it does not FC.

Applied ComRom patch 2.1 and then let market update Kindle. It's now working correctly for me.

Using the latest Vegan experimental build based on gingerbread and loving it. However the market is kicking my butt. It opens and shows apps, although not all apps, and even shows that i have purchased some apps if i come across them in my searches. However the "My Apps" tab is always empty, showing no downloads. I've tried all market fixes i could find and have used market enabler to no avail. Am i the only one with this issue? I should mention that the market was working before with TNT 4.2 and then with Vegan 5.1. Help is appreciated!

seems to be a gingerbread issue with our tabs for the moment. Can't purchase apps either.
Ok,well there is some comfort in numbers! Just curious if i had done something wrong with the install and was the only one havong the problem. Thanks for the info, i'll just keep watching the forums.
Has there been any status on this? Running latest Vegan-Tab 7 Experimental, and now my market myapps is empty as well.
Been using app center app (found in apps section of this forum) to fill in the missing holes from market place works rather well
I've tried every flavor of Gingerbread rom, and it's the same thing on all. When you first install GAPPs, and open the market, everything installed and all purchased apps show up in the "My Apps" section, but as market or something updates, and as soon as you exit that first time it's empty since. When I flashed the latest version of Vegan Ginger back on the 8th I used the universal CM7 gapps off the cyanogen wiki page.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version#Viewsonic_G_Tablet
I've still had the empty "My Apps" but am able to download and purchase apps with no problems. As best as I can tell, I have as close to full market as you can get. (Haven't searched for anything that I couldn't find)
Can't find the Market App on Vegan Gingerbread experimental.
Greeting,
I rooted my Gtablet with latest Vegan Gingerbread experimental.
It all went smooth until
Part Three – Install Flash and fix Android Market
Step 3.
Open the Market app. Once it loads close it (press the home button).
I installed flash, but I can't find the Market App of Step 3. Is that expected?
The tablet functions really well in everything else.
Thanks
It's labeled Experimental for a reason. I'm sure when Gojimi gets back from vacation he'll have more time to get more up to date on some of the cm7 fixes. This issue is known in the thread for that rom. If you need a stable market go to 5.1.1. Me I'm dealing with the market woes for now myself.

I wouldn't follow the walkthrough for that step. On the vegan gingerbread thread, gojimi put the market update file there to download. It's on the first post of the thread. Once you install the market with clockwork you can find flash 10.2 in the market. The walkthrough you're following links to 10.1

This tip help clear out my confusion. I expected the market to be there. I had no idea it needed to be installed on it own.

My newbie two-cents
I soft bricked my gtab one hour out of the box, but thanks to the Almighty and you guys I'm running vegan-7 and loving it. Market works great and so does flash. This was my first Rom mode, but it won't be my last. Thanks to all who post here and let the games begin.
Can anyone get greader or greader pro to work for cm 7.02? It will not show articles and hangs on the loading after I open a feed. I have pro but installed regular to test if it was a problem with pro. Also I've cleared the cache/uninstalled etc. If you're not on cm 7.02 and it works please tell me what version. Thanks.
i have the pro version... running build 68 of cm7 (today's build) and have no issues. I have a ton of groups in google reader too.
May want to try a clean install... I have had to do that a few times... also try doing a fix permissions from rom manager.
Clean install of what? Greader or cm? I don't want to lose my home screen layout. Updated to newest daily cleared dalvik and reinstalled greader pro just keeps fcing and not loading. Also ran fix perm.

You aren't alone on this one. I am having the same issues. I recommend sending a copy of your logcat and a brief description of what you are experiencing to the developer and posting a copy on the forum. I am unsure if it is the application or cm7 which is causing the FCs. I use a free application called alogcat to get the logcat. I am hoping this gets resolved because I use this application everyday. For now I just use my HTC Thunderbolt for my rss fix. I started experiencing this issues since nightly 65 I believe.
Device info:
Cm7.1.0 beta2 (clean wipe)
I tried a fresh install and then my N button stopped working. Any idea why?
I personally use newsrob. Its really good and easy to use

Have you tried updating to CM 7.0.3? I'm running 7.0.3 and gReader is working fine for me.
I am happy to say the lastest cm7 2.6.32 beta 3.1 works with greader. I used it this morning without any FCs or issues. The clearing of the cache bug is the application's problem not cm7. But for now it is usable. Thanks Dalingerin, Fattire and the rest of the crew.

Pro version, or FREE? I still can't get the FREE version working on any recent nightly or .32 beta build.
Both free and pro. I am on cm7.32 beta 3.1 with the overclock kernel 5/13/11. Try clearing the cache within greader because it has a problem with doing it automatically. Also make sure you are running the latest version of greader. Did you every save a logcat after the application crashed? I am not an expert by I would like to see if you are experiencing the same issues I had. Also contact the dev.
Hey. For those who have gotten swype to work I request your help.
I am on the MIUI 1.6.24.1 from andmer and using nemesis kernel OTB 2.6.35 0701. ED04 modem although I don't think modem matters.
I have searched through here and seen some of the same troubleshooting I have done. I formatted my SD card when coming onto this build so nothing on it. I downloaded the swype beat installer fresh and then installed the full version and all it tells me is that its not licensed still. I have then tried to follow the licensing steps and of course get stuck on the uncheck swype as there is none. I have also tried deleting the swype, and installer. and have searched as best i can and found no other swype files. Also in root explorer did a search for swype and came up blank.
Anyone else have any further ideas? I am one who cant stand the android keyboard lol.
I appreciate any ideas and thanks in advanced
Hi! I've been using the search feature and How Tos, but my problem is that I just received a warranty replacement Fascinate for my speaker going out, prior to yesterday I was rolling happily along with CommRom UKB, but now with ED05 already on my phone I'm not sure I want to back track... I want to try ccampos784's [ROM][ED05] PowerWashed ED05 ROM and Debloated Touchwiz ED05 ROM, and I have the zip, I understand how to flash that, but don't I need an odin file? And to get CWM or something? Should I use the ones I have from before (cwm-recovery-ALL-3-30-FIX.tar)? and since the Odin file for ED05 is stock, not rooted wouldn't that just be a circle and put me where I am with Stock ED05. My main reason for rooting is Debinging, so... can anyone help me out here please? I think I am just confusing myself more the more I try to research....
download the powerwash ed05.zip and push to your sd
odin cwmall.tar
three finger boot into recovery
wipe data
install zip from sd
Should work fine installing over your current ed05 build...atleast it did for me.
*edit
btw the powerwash ed05 rom is already rooted/debloated/debigned/deodexed/zipaligned/go launcher...etc
Thanks!!!
So Simple and what I've done a bunch of times, I was just making it way more complicated than it needed to be, thanks for the clear "Just do this" Basically. Now I'm embarrassed that I had to ask...
I've rooted and installed roms on other phones before, but this one has me really confused. Currently I've rooted using the ubuntu guide, installed cwm-3-30fix, "modified stock firmware" found in some guide out there that said it was needed to install "latest cwm recovery" which was red 3.xx, curently still on the 2.5cwm 3-30fixall recovery. So should I go back to stock ED04? Update to ED05? Place point me in the direction to install cm7 or other rom. And from what I've read I also need to worry about the modems now? I also tried installing the rom managers recovery, then learned from another thread it doesn't work with the fascinate.

Your question cannot be directly answered, but Ill try my best...
-flash the version of cwm that the rom you are trying to install calls for.
-I use cwm 2.5.1.x for all stock rom's and the older froyo roms
-Some newer roms require cwm3
-All mtd roms such as miui, cm7, VGB require cwm4
Read the vanilla gingerbread thread in the development section and that should bring you up to speed. I recommend to odin the verizon official ed05 package in the development section. One reason being you do not need to flash a modified kernal to get cwm to stick. Also the powerwash ed05 package is debinged/ debloated/deodexed/ zip aligned/ rooted. Its a nice functional rom with some tsm enhancements.
Thank you for giving me a place to start! is there info on the modems/radios in the vanilla thread?

There is an app in the market that allows you to make odin backups. Its called odin maker. Haven't tried it yet though. This might be useful at some point in your endeavors.

Nice! ill have to play around with that...
Thanks Droidstyle! Now I'm on ED05 powerwash. Nice speed compared to stock. I'm very happy now.
Glad to hear you guys are happy with the ROM! Just as a reminder, the PowerWash ROM has been updated since yesterday up to beta v4 and resolves some issues. Check the main thread for more details.
Is anyone else having problems with app storage on the powerwash ROM?
I originally loaded the ROM and after restoring my backups from Titanium the phone became an unusable due to constant crashes of just about everything imaginable. Tried wiping it and restoring a few apps at a time - worked fine until I rebooted at which point all my prefs were gone and the same crashes started before I could even unlock the screen.
So, I decided maybe it was a problem with my backups and decided I'd start clean. I did a full wipe and discovered that I can't install more than about 4 apps before I start getting insufficient space errors. When I go to settings->phone storage, I still have 1.42GB free under internal phone storage.
I've now done the following procedure twice top-to-bottom, and end up with the same results:
- ODIN ED05 OTA ROM & .pit file.
- Boot into ED05
- Setup Google Account
- Load Market -> Install Maps, all 3 Angry Birds variants, Beautiful Widgets, Pocket Cloud (just a few big apps to prove there is no problem with my hardware and that it works under stock).
- Reboot & ODIN CWM.
- Flash PowerWash beta4, wipe davlik, data, cache, battery stats. Confirm voodoo is off.
- Boot into PWb4.
- Setup Google Account
- Load Market -> Install BW, PocketCloud, Maps, Angry Birds. After this, all additional app installs fail due to insufficient space.
A df from the command line shows 1.4GB free on /data and none of the other partitions are 100% full, so I don't think this is a voodoo-partition-with-a-non-voodoo-kernel problem.
As I said, I've done this whole thing twice. Apps install fine on Stock, fail on PowerWash. Nobody else seems to be complaining, so this must be an obvious thing I'm missing, but I'm not sure what. Any help?
OK, this may not be directly ROM related, but I'm not sure how to work around it. From what I can tell, every time I load the market, it must be background updating from 3.0.26 to 3.0.27. If I go into applications, wipe the data and uninstall the update, I can then go into the market and install one additional app. When I try to install another, I'm told there is no space, but if I go to the Applications control panel, I'll see that I've been upgraded to 3.0.27 again. If I uninstall the update and repeat the process, I can get yet another app, but the process keeps repeating itself.
Is there a way to either lock the 3.0.26 market version or to flash back to the old market?

Want to try this out for me? It flashes back the old market that came with ED05 stock. Flash in CWM, then once you boot up go into settings>applications> Market and clear data and cache on it to clear up any issues.

There's another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16324333) with another person having the same issue. Seems to be related to the latest market.
I had just finished doing about what you are recommending when you posted.
For reference for anyone else - Once I started searching beyond just the fascinate forums, I've found that 3.0.27 causes problems for a lot of people on other platforms (mostly apps over 30MB will fail, but others at random as well), and there doesn't seem to be a way to block the update from 3.0.26. You have to roll back to the 2.x version (which I did), and that seems to fix the problem.
I'd suggest leaving the 2.x version in the future version of the ROM and making the 3.0 market an addon if people want to experiment with it after google hammers out the bugs.
(Alternatively, people have had luck making a temporary /cache partition inside an ext4 img file, but that seems complicated and hacky to include in a ROM).
Thanks!

Actually, this might be fixed soon, since a voodoo kernel is in the making and it uses Ext4 partitions. Can't give you an ETA (and it's not my kernel), but check the couple last posts in the main ROM thread for details.
I have Vegan-tab gingerbread 7.0RC1 pershoot bl1.2.
Flash no longer shows up on my installed apps. When i search for it, It says it is not compatible for my device, google maps does the same thing too. Does anyone else have this problem too. I just noticed it last week.

Yeah, that was the only problem I had with that ROM. It seemed to always happen for me when the tablet would hard freeze and I had to reboot. Once it boots back up, anytime I access the Market, everything was not compatible with GTab.
I never found a solution other than returning to HC. It was a good ROM and that was the only prob I had with it.
Does [BL1.2]VEGAn-TAB GingerEdition v7.1.0 solve this issue?
Yes, it is much better running Vending 3.1.3.
If you have superuser rights, use AntTek App Manager to backup flash, than delete it from system (even sys application version), the Hulufied version from ASOP Ginger posts. You might need to install, update from market, remove, and install Hulufied version to stick.
Just download it on the PC..then hook up your GTab to the PC...drag the Flash 10.3 (Yes that one will work) into the storage on the device. Then download it from there.
All the apps (And there was ALOT) that shows up Non Compatible with your device in the Market...will actually work if you do it that way.
Thank you for all the responses. I went for the upgrade option to Vegantab 7.1. I am very pleased.
