I am doing regular CM7 nightly updates every other day. I keep my apps backed up with titaniumbackup pro. Before, I was able to run PVZ on my NC just fine-its fullscreen, slightly pixelated but you won't notice it. Ive only just realized that now it won't run anymore. Whenever I try to run it, it goes to that 'hourglass' loading screen then the app terminates. I tried both compatibility modes in spare parts but it didn't do anything differently. Anyone can help?

Have you tried reinstalling it? Did you edit your IMEI or build.prop?
just tried it, and the game runs just fine for me. maybe you'll need to uninstall and reinstall or restore the game from one of your backups.
I have it installed from Amazon Market and it's always worked just fine.
Works fine for me on nightlies.
Works for me you may need to fix permissions in recovery.

Works fine for me by default. Reinstall it.
Thank you all! It's still not working for me after doing everything that you guys suggested.
Here's what I did:
I totally uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. I run it, it goes to the hourglass, then the PopCap logo, then the app terminates. I uninstalled it again, I 'restored' it from my original Titanium Backup. No go. Fix Permissions using ROM Manager. Nope. Fix Permissions in CWM. Same thing.
Now I didn't know that it's required to edit the build.prop to make this app work, as I reckon I never did that before when I first got the app. I wonder what am I missing?
I'm running CM7 Nightly 171 (pretty stable) and OC to 1.2GHz. Hope you can help me. I'd like to try if modifying build.prop would do it, but I dunno how. Can someone point it out?
Thanks to this amazing community!
had this happening with angry birds.....
i had to uninstall... through market or tb.. ..reboot into recovery... do a format data, and then clear cache and dalvik..... reboot.... ..reinstall....from market....then fix permissions!
edit...:son's NC oc'd 1.3 CM7 ....
I was able to make it work. What I did:
format /data
format /system
format /cache
wipe dalvik cache
install latest nightly (177)
Immediately after installing the new nightly, I installed plants vs zombies.
It worked!
BUT!
After a did a restore of the rest of my apps (not including the plants vs zombies) via titanium backup, it stopped working again.
I therefore conclude that some of my apps or widgets are the ones that causing plants vz zombies not to work.
:'(
I doubt anyone can help me though, seeing that most of you guys have got it and is working just fine. I wonder if I will have the patience to try and install all my apps one by one to check what's causing the pvz to not work.
Keeping my fingers crossed.

Please help me or I wont have much hair left!
Thanks guys

Dalvik cache? If so I just did and I will report back
Did it start happening after the supplement 5.1.1? A few users rebooted reboot issues especially after using Flash in the browser. I haven't been able to replicate it, but I also wipe user data as a rule between mods and updates.

before I tried the supplement. I have min stuff on the tab and use it for web browsing. but I did install a few apps that I could share folders off my pc.
it seems to be doing it after I use market at some point. i done the cache clear as above and it worked fine for 2 hours, then I opened up market and looked around. with in 2 min the screen went blank and i was to the lock screen. other times it goes to the home screen.
I done a shut down, restart and havent been on market and its been up for a hour.
I'm running the supplement at this time. only thing downloaded was quadrant and kindle.
first time I done the quadrant test also, it was 2152 or close. not sure what it should be if that matters.
thanks for your help.

Doesn't make sense it would only happen with the same 2 apps & on different roms.
Have you tried browsers other than the stock browser & does it happen with those? What version of Market is currently installed, an older version or the nesest (3.0.27)?

Are you talking in CWM, Mounts & Storage?
Shouldn't have to do anything there. All that should be automatically mounted. you wiud know if one of those wasn't. ..system would come up.../data is where installed apps are, /sdcard is where you store stuff, /system is where your rom is, /cache is by the system
If you use cpumaster,setcpu or similar, try removing.I found setcpu to be responsible for crashing some apps and sleep of death on my tab and was only overclocked to 1.2Ghz.I now overclock by editing script included in rom and no more problems.
I just installed CM7 on my Vibrant, everything seems to be working well with the exception of a couple issues which don't seem to be addressed in the thread:
-When I reboot I have to sign in to my google account again, and the widgets say "problem loading widget"
-I don't seem to be recieving text messages(though I confirmed I can send)
-I can't install non-market apps(only tried nfs shift), nor can I install some market apps(Quadrant won't download at all)
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated. TIA
Reflash.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Might be something wrong with the market.
Reflashed and it still at least makes me sign in after a reboot, will find out about texts soon enough, apps are less important.
Just in case, these are the steps I took to reflash, since I'm kind of a noob, maybe I missed something
-Reflashed cm7-vibrant-initial-kernel.tar with Odin
-Installed cm7-vibrant-initial-XXXXXXXX.zip
-Installed cm7-vibrant-update-XXXXXXXX.zip
-Installed gapps-gb-XXXXXXXX.zip
EDIT: Reflashed a few more times and got it working. Problem was I was installing CWM with the Rom Manager app instead of installing a kernal with it included, put speedmod on and now it seems to be working fine. NFS still doesn't work but it installs, and based on the reviews it's probably the game and not the phone.
I want to share the versions of the Market and various Gapps that work for me on Sam's HC EMMC v4.0, 2nd ed. build {Huge props to him, deeper-blue, and others who got HC working on the NC. Without their heroic efforts, I'd be working 4 jobs right now trying to save up to buy a Xoom}
This script is the first one I run after doing a fresh build of HC EMMC, but you should also be able to do it on a stale version of HC as well.
Maps is version 5.0
While I am confident that these files will work for you as well, please remember, individual results may vary---use at your own discretion.
NOTE: The 'GoogleServicesFramework.apk' file in the attached .zip will remove the blue wi-fi icon from Sam's initial build. If you prefer the blue icon over a working Market (My Apps), then DO NOT proceed with the installation!
That being said, please do the following before trudging ahead:
+ Perform a full backup using your bootable CWR SD card [see samuelhalff's thread for instructions on this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947071]
+ Backup each of the original files on your NC that will be replaced by the script
+ See #1 & #2 above...you've been warned
Instructions for Installation:
Extract the files contained within the attached .zip into the same directory as your ADB directory (where your 'adb.exe' file lives). Mine was located here on my computer: C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
Connect your NC to your computer, ensuring ADB is working properly ahead of time
Double-click on the file 'HoneyGAppInstall.cmd' and the script to install the new apps will run
The script will reboot your NC upon completion
Once your NC comes backup from the reboot, you can then login to the Market, select "My Apps" and they should show up right away.
I have also attached the 'build.prop' file I use. This modified file allows me to see tablet apps (NY Times Tablet, More Good News Tablet) and also I can see/download/install both Angry Birds games.
NOTE: The ro.sf.lcd_density is set to 140 in my file. This is not friendly to Zeam and needs to be set to at least 150 for that launcher to work without Force Closing in Portrait mode.
Good luck and let me know if any issues.
EDIT: For those running a build that is not new and already has the original Market setup, would be best to do the following steps after running the Gapps script:
1.) Settings > Manage Applications > All > Market: Clear Cache then Force Stop -- DO NOT Clear Data2.) Settings > Manage Applications > All > Google Services Framework: Clear Data3.) Reboot

Would it be possible to flash the market zip through recovery? Looks like it would work in theory.
I can see all the installed apps on My Apps. Thanks for these files. But I have one problem. My Nook no longer shows up on market.android.com. Anyone else have this problem?

I don't use that site much, but I did just check it out of curiosity.
I verified it was working by going into: My Market Account > Settings tab. I can see "LogicPDZoom2" with last access of today's date.

Not being a dev, I don't know how to compile the files I attached and make them flashable.
However, I can tell you that I do have a black-themed Market by Darkslide for my DroidX that is flashable via CWR, but sadly, it did not work for me. I tried it by booting to the CWR SD card. Would have been nice to have the black-themed version.
I also have a flashable version of Zeam, but again, did not work for me.
Now, I have not tried it by going into CWR using Sam's method with his built-in utility. This is because I have not really been able to get that to work 100% of the time and also because it is just so easy to get to CWR via the bootable SD card that I have not really messed with it too much.
I can post the black-themed Market if someone smarter than me wants to take a look at it...might prove useful. I am just not sure if a DX file can be used on the NC
Just let me know and maybe we can figure it out together.

And you have to be pretty fast at disabling that little "HQ" icon in the top-right corner of the screen. From my experience, has to be almost instantaneous by the time it appears on the screen or the video won't load.

Thanks for checking. I did mess around with the build.prop you provided. I think I messed something up. I will use the file you provided without any changes.
Thanks.
Not being dev minded, I don't know how much help I would be. I was able to extract the apks from the zip file and move them with root explorer, changed permissions and it appears to be holding. Have rebooted twice and still good. Your script in the zip file would not work with cwr since it is windows based, I think. I don't know if the apks would install in recovery without a script, seems like it would not. Anyway, thanks for putting this together. Market works with the apks and the build. prop seems to have helped as well. Thanks again.

You are most welcome and yes, the .zip is not flashable for CWR. XDA will only allow for certain types of files to be uploaded and .zip is one of them, so easier for me to go that route.
Files in the .zip are meant to be extracted into the folder where ADB.exe exists in order for the script to work correctly. As stated in the OP, I have only tested this on a Win7 box, as that is the only platform I have access to at the moment.
Root Explorer will also work, as you already know. So, for those who want to go that route, it is certainly an option. Glad things are working well for you at this point. Thanks for your feedback!
I'm just checking. These are the Android 3.0 gapps from the XOOM, not the 2.3 gapps? (Sorry I'm a little tired and don't have the emmc version installed, I run the SD card version, so I can't test ATM)

2.3, not 3.0.
Just transferred all the apps and the build.prop to a stale build of eMMC 2nd (3 days of use) and other than using root explorer followed the instructions to a T. My apps seemed to work but not thinking I updated maps in the market and now it doesnt work. Tried to uninstall updates in market (didnt seem to even finish the process), replace with my original apk, replace with apk from your zip here, clearing cache and data. Nothing seems to bring it back to life. Anyone else have this problem?
P.S. I think the white wifi icon looks nice.

Just used a combination of Root Explorer and ADB (for the chmod) to use your mod and everything is working great. Thanks a ton for posting this!
Only change I had to make was the LCD Density in the build.prop since I want to use Zeam. I tried using the default launcher but it is so laggy, I just can't.

Did you get your Maps back and working yet? If not, PM me and we can work on it together, offline. And if we can get it to work, we can post the "method to our madness" here in case others have done the same.

Glad all is working for you and that is a good point...I will update the OP to let folks know the build.prop has the LCD Density set at 160, which is not Zeam portrait-mode friendly.
Thanks for the feedback!
Okay, just downloaded the new Amazon Appstore and installed Angry Birds Rio (the first Free App of the Day). Force Close... so I tried both 140 and 160 LCD Densities and still no luck. Tried both of the other Angry Birds (original & seasons) and they force close on all three densities as well.
Any thoughts on why you are able to run them but I can't using the same build.prop? The only thing I had changed from your build.prop was the LCD density, but as I said, even changing it back to match your original setting doesn't make Angry Birds work.
Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons work for me. I had to move them to the internal memory. I already tried moving Rio to internal memory, however it still FC's. I can get the game to almost start, but when it's time to start shooting, it FC's. I haven't tried changing the LCD density.
Same issue here with Rio. Tried internal and no dice. Doesn't run at all when on SD.
So, I searched everything but didn't help.
Thing is, I want to install FPse PS emulator. I installed it but then for some reason I removed. Now I want to install it again, but I get out of space error, and I have lots of free space!
I tried erasing google play cache, erasing cache/davlik cache from CWR. I have no idea what to do! I tried installing different apps, they work fine, then I tried different version of FPse and it didn't install either. I even updated firmware to 4.1.2 (i had 4.1.1). I use stock rooted rom.
Well everything works fine except FPse, and I need it so much right now I have whole day ahead, a good old gamepad and tomb raider V iso that I can not use.
Please! Any help would be appricieated.

I have flashed the Candy5 rom a few times, but I am not able to get the facebook app to install. I have tried serveral Gapps. Is this a common thing or is there something I can do to fix this?
I posted in the Candy5 rom thread a few times, but I am unable to post there again because I have less than 10 posts?
I understand the work around to this problem could be, do without the facebook app and just login using a web browser. I just want to know if this is a common problem among flashing new/custom roms?
Seems like I was finally able to get the facebook app to install. It hung up on install but I just waited and waited and it finally successfully installed this time. We shall see if it fails to update/install in the future.
Well It won't let me move it to the sd card, and now I am stuck trying to re-install it again. Anyone else have this problem?

Have you tried converting it to a user app using titanium backup? Not sure if this would help. These new roms are just beginning to become stable though so expect some bugs in the lollipops until the devs have a chance to perfect them. Is there a particular reason you need to have it on sd card?

I am not sure about converting to a user app with titanium backup. I would like to move it to the sd card to save some space, but when apps get moved there, they seem to disappear sometimes and they don't like to update. The facebook app is the worst. It doesn't want to install and if you get it installed it doesn't want to update. Thanks for your reply.

No, it just takes a long time downloading and then it says it is installing, but it doesn't install. I think a couple of times it might have said error 904, but I am not certain.
I do have it installed after many attempts, but it says it needs updated, and it goes back to the downloading & installing, but failing. Some of my other apps seem to disappear from my home screen and I have to drag them back out again and some apps disappeared and I had to reinstall them.
I did a fresh flash, wiped dalvik cache/cache/system/ before I flashed the v3.6 with the 09/09/15 gapps. Should I restore it to an earlier backup and update/flash through the Candy OTA instead?
I could try uninstalling the facebook app and try to reinstall it, but I am worried that might not work because this has happened to me on earlier roms too. Also crashes when I open a website link or youtube video in the facebook app.
I uninstalled the Facebook app then reinstalled it, but it appeared to hang up on install again. I shut down my device and waited for a minute or two and then turned it back on. While booting, it said Candy5 is optimizing Facebook app. Now the google play store shows the app is up to date.
I then tried opening a YouTube link from Facebook and it crashed to the home screen. Sometimes it shows the Samsung loading screen briefly, only with the Facebook app. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure which gapps you're using but maybe try another version. Make sure they are small or Pico gapps 5.1 version. Not the old 5.0
I am using the mini gapps from the op link.
Should I wipe internal & external SD cards also and flash again? When I wipe in twrp, I go to advanced wipe, dalvik cache/cache/system/data. I usually repeat that a few times before flashing the ROM.
I think my problem was due to file conflicts. I also had my original jellybean installed in twrp recovery backups and maybe the two different versions caused a conflict? I wiped everything and am now able to install facebook and move it to my sd card.
This is what I was worried about. It happened again during an update. Do I need to keep flashing gapps updates?
I just updated gapps to the 09/17/15 version and got this error now. I know I have plenty of space.
I was able to get the Facebook app installed again. I had to uninstall some apps and music to make space, which doesn't make sense because my 29 GB SD card was not even close to being full.
I am on Candy 9-08 build. I can install Facebook but can't update or move it to SD card. So if there is a new version, I have to uninstall and reinstall from the playstore. This usually takes a while and requires a reboot.
It probably something to do with the Facebook app. It used to work fine but stopped working a few months ago for me. I was on the 3-16 build of Candy for a while.
