Had the same issue when I tried to root my stock 2.2 Vibrant.
Busybox has to be installed somewhere in /system, I believe. The version of 2.2 that Samsung Kies installs, however, has /system packed completely full of bloatware, so there's no room for busybox.
What worked for me was to root with SuperOneClick, then reboot my phone. That got the Superuser app working, so I could use a file manager (I used Super Manager) with root privileges to go into /system and delete some of the bloat to make room for busybox.
An alternative choice is to just flash something else, instead of sticking with a rooted stock 2.2 firmware. As far as I know, all stock 2.1 builds have room in /system for whatever you might need to put there.
let me try to install file manage and clean some unwanted files and try again...

I used Super Manager for the job, but I think about any file manager that can use root privileges would work.
Be sure to only delete bloat. Stuff like Sims 3, Amazon mp3, Slacker Radio, that sort of thing. Those are really just apps, and have no business being in /system. They're only put there because T-Mobile didn't want us to be able to delete the bloat they were paid to pre-load onto our phones. /system also holds all sorts of stuff your phone needs to work properly, so you can end up forced to Odin to stock if you delete stuff that's not bloat.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925400 is the thread that I followed to get root working on my previously stock 2.2 Froyo Vibrant. It's /system/app that you need to clean up bloat from.
Thanks i could delete unwanted apps and free up some space in system folder. I could unlock my phone and use AT&T sim.
I recently installed nightly build #6 of cm7 for the first time and I don't have market, Gmail,etc. I have searched the forums and have already tried installing Google apps via rom manager. My phone enters recovery for a split second then rebooted and still no apps. Also my Rom manager is no longer the premium version. Any help would be appreciated!

I don't use any of the nightly builds of CM7.
However, I don't understand why you can't just place the apk onto your root and click to install.
Or better yet, use root explorer and just place the entire apk into the apps folder.
Those 2 aren't options?
Unfortunately I'm not near a computer and I'm brand new to cm7 so I wasn't sure if there is just a quick fix. Also I would like to know how I can get my apps back without having titanium anymore and no market..
Hi to everyone,
Sorry for repeating the thread, but I haven't find solution for my problem.
Each time I start Android Market it force close. I tried Android Market v2.2.6, v2.3.6, v3.0.27. I tired to open new gmail account, factory reset, remove SD card, restart, use ZipSigner... and still the same.
Could someone help me?
I have rooted Samsung Galaxy S2, Android Gingerbread v2.3.3, kernel XWKE7.
Best regards!
Wipe phone flash stock firmware via Odin is what i would do .

Also try fixing permissions in CWM that works a lot of the time for FC issues.
Custom rom or theme?
Try cleaning the cache and darlvik cache
Update to a newer stock or custom rom.
Make sure your kernel matches your rom.

Reboot into clockwordmod, advanced, fix permissions, reboot.
Fixing permissions usually (not all the time) does work, other than that i would do a full wipe and start afresh.

I have problem with opening the market, so I can't download "fix permission".
Problem solved.
Hi to everyone,
I made official update of my ROM (according to product code seems that it is now for my country) and got pre installed Android Market that is working.
Everything is fine now.
Thank you for your time and effort.
Best regards!
Hello,
I'm a noob and in need of desperate help. I recently flashed my SGS2 with CM 7.1 I installed all the Gapps and at first it all ran fine. But now the Market keeps on force closing on me with the errors:
com.android.vending has stopped unexpectedly please try again
android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly.
I am unable to install/download any apps that I desperately need.
Steps taken:
clear Cache and data
flashed Gapps
Try selecting Language to English (Canada)
downloaded another Marketplace.apk
I am stumped and I don't know what else I can do.
Updating to a newer stock or custom rom will do it for sure
Hey Guys,
i have the following same problem:
Phone: i9001
ROm: MIUI Framework GFAN LUffy ROm
Kernel: [email protected]
XXKPK 2.3.6
Everything is working fine except the market.
The ROM comes without googleMarket.
Ive installed the market via *.apk 3.*.15
Everytime i start the app it loads...after couple seconds, Force Close.
I ve reinstalled the ROm etc,
Wiped Data, Rooted, Wipe Cache , fixed permission, Wiped dalvik cache, reinstalled the market...
Same again...Force Close..
I uninstalled the market via Root Uninstaller,
then reinstalled,
started the app....after a while it loaded the screen of the market, i saw the homescreen of the market. Then i tried to download something "whattsapp" whatever....., same again, FC...
Anybody who has experiences with this issue?
ForceCloses at market?
Thanks
Like Markoldfield said, updating to a stock or newer custom rom will solve it.
had the same issue yesterday after the russian email update mess, the only thing that worked for me was restoring an old version of market with TI
I think i know the answer since i had the same problem that i removed the download app and the download provider
so you get them back or reflash the rom

Hi there,
Is anyone still encountering FC/not dowloading apps for Playstore or market, it might also be the cause of new partition or something like that , you can try this option freely..
1. check if cache folder has "download" folder inside it, if it no download folder then create one inside /cache, e.g. mkdir /cache/download.
2. then chmod the /cache folder to 777, also make sure the com.android.vending folder is present inside /data/data/ folder.
3. You can achive it through shell terminal.
Hope this helps you guys fix the FC(Force close or not downloading apps on playstore or market).
Hit thanks if it helps.
Thanks

I flashed wolfs v3.5 and then update 3.7 earlier today and since then I have been having trouble installing apps from the android market. I can't install dolphin browser and es file explorer. I have downgraded to 2.1 and then updated back to 2.3.3 stock but the problem persists. Is there anything I can do to get these apps to install again. I don't understand it, I tried dolphin browser mini and that installed fine. Is there anything on my sd card that's preventing these apps from installing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have only started rooting and experimenting with custom roms so I am a bit confused as to why these apps don't install. I am now on stock rom..no root or xrecovery installed yet.
does it say incompatibility from the market?
