[Q] Stuck, cant install anything - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello how are you?
I have rooted my phone and installed a custom rom, however market does not allow me to install anything. I have the SuperUser app (useless) but no filemanager. I try to download apk from internet on my mobile, without luck again - Installation Unsuccessful. Any Help?

boot into Recovery and wipe Dalivik Cache and Cache, reboot into system and find the Market application
Menu
Settings
Applications
Manage Applications
All
Market

Clear Data
Clear Cache
This solved this problem with me before but may differ but give it a try it may help

[Q] Android Market force close

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

cm-10.1-20130129-NIGHTLY-p4wifi.zip
gapps-jb-20130121-P75xx.zip
Hello,
I have the same problem as described by Fire_cat and I did the same steps to overcome it. I did research the forum to try to get a better understanding of this issue, to no avail. I also experience the same problem with CM9 and CM10 with appropriate gapps for these versions.
I disabled goo applications and was able to install one app successfully Rom Toolbox Pro after which the problem started all over again.
This strange behavior appeared 6 days after me first rooting and flashing CM10.1. Strange because it happened overnight when the day before everything was smooth.
Whenever I load Play Store, install or update an app, it will download it and when it hit 100%, the tablet (P4wifi) crash and I can see the CM Logo for a minute. As said, I cleared all cache and data multiple times, fixed permission before and after.
Thanks for your help
N
Just a quick update.
Las night, I started over but this time using the gapps-jb-20121207-wingray-signed.zip someone suggested might help.
It was unstable untill I disabled all google apps, launched Play Store, downloaded Opera and then rebooted to the CM logo.
I also tracked this post describing the problem on the Nightly discussions :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37335696&postcount=765
EDIT:
I started all over again, this time using the last gapps-jb-20130129-P75xx.zip, Still as soon as I log into my Google Account when first booting the tablet, it systematicaly crash. Gmail is acting normaly. Any attemp to download an app will reboot the tablet. Some random crash.
For the sake of it, I tried with a different google account. Same problem.
And how to solve the damn reboot problem
I was finally able to restore to a functional CM10.1 with latest Gapps and install apps from Play Store without crash!
I was unable to connect the tablet to my mac or pc using Debug options.
On my mac through DDMS, I was able to access the file system but not to completely browse it.
So I decided to navigate the file system on CWM to see what it looked like. I noticed that the file architecture was very wrong; In /sdcard was and other /0 with inside an other /0, so the file system was repeating itself as many time as I tried to install CM10, CM9 and CM10.1 without never formating /system.
Here's what I did to get a stable tablet:
1) Use odin to flash the latest CWM (Choose yours on droid basement(cant post link))
2) Reboot in recovery
3) Wipe Cache, Dalvik Cache and Data
4) Format /System
5) Reboot, put tablet in debug mode, drop latest Nightly and latest Gapps
6) Reboot in recovery and install both from sdcard (no more recurent directory showing)
7) Reboot and get a stable tablet.
Voilà
I'll try to help if you encounter a similar problem. I come from the iOS world so I'm not that much experienced with droid.

Issue: Can't reinstall application

Can anyone help me please; when I'm trying to install an app that I've previously uninstalled (because it didn't work), I'm getting error that I don't have enough space, altough I have more than 3 GB of free space. I've tried to boot CWM, wiped dalvik cache & fix the permissions, but that didn't helped.
New applications I can install with no issues, only old apps are bugging me.
I9300, XXELL5
What app is it? If it is a system app, that'd mean you'll have to push the apk
It's not the system app... First app is AfterFocus, second is game called Patchworkz. I tried to install older version, newest version but it just wont install...

try this: http://gizmostorm.com/how-to-fix-package-file-is-invalid-error-on-google-play-store/
In case above steps didn’t worked for you
Boot your device into recovery.
Clear cache partition.
Head over to Advance options.
Clear Dalvik cache.
Simply reboot your droid.
Try Play Store once again and probably you will end up with success in installing any apps and games without any error.

Out of Space : Unable to install some apps

Hi everyone!
Pardon me, I'm just new here, I signed up bcoz I'm losing hope now.
I'm having issue installing "some" apps on my phone. (some are installing)
I'm trying to install downloaded apks.
Searched and tried TS steps found online to no success.
TS steps done:
Restarted the phone
Clear Cache on the recovery mode
Clear cache on each application through setting>application manager
Clear cache using android assistant
Tried the MMI code *#9900# and deleted dumpstate/logcat
Deleted the "mysterious large file" .thumbdata
Checked and deleted some odex files
Checked and deleted files under android/data
Installed Lucky patcher (no troubleshooting option)
Unable to install logcat
Unable to search appslib or app-lib
Phone information:
Galaxy grand quattro
Not rooted, stock ROM
phone memory : 1.74GB/ 5GB
SD card 1.5GB/ 32GB
Running process (under applct'n manager): 662MB used, 219MB free
RAM status : 568MB/845MB
I can just reset my phone to factory default but that's just avoiding the problem, I would like to resolve the root cause of the problem. (without rooting the phone)
I believe that we can resolved this issue.
Thank you in advance.
Root You Device First

First of all make your phone rooted (then only you can delete modify files) use odin to flah CWM recovery and install superSU with CWM, some apk need root access ( like lucky patcher, root explorer) then use root explorer and go to sdcard/andriod /data and delete only the files which are not working and then try to install them it will work.
Here is the link to rooting :
