Hi,
So I had had FC issues with contacts on eclipse 1.2 previously, and i had thought maybe it was just bad data or something that could be fixed with a data wipe. What happens is that dialer works fine and i can call people and make text messages, but when i switch into the contacts pane, and i try to select one of my contacts to look at them, contacts crashes (see attached screenshots if that makes no sense)
Anyways it's really annoying because i can't add any new contacts because it crashes whenever i try. So i was putting up with it until i decided to switch to eclipse 1.3. Well, i took the plunge today, and 1.3 happily does not have the problem. So i went in to delete the Swype that comes with eclipse because it's really crappy, and i wanted to put on Swype beta to my phone (why isn't nitro just building Swype beta into eclipse, i don't get it... Clearly the beta is much better).
So i go into root explorer, head over into /system/app and delete Swype.apk - and contacts immediately crashes. I'm not kidding, immediately. It must have been running in the background or something, but it immediately forced closed. And now the problem is back. So clearly deleting the original Swype is what is causing the force close issues. And the fact that i replaced that Swype with the beta and there is now another version of Swype.apk in /system/app doesn't make the fc issues go away.
So I'm left wondering, why is Swype causing this FC issue? Obviously there must be a dependency somewhere in contacts.apk... Does anybody else seem to have this problem? Does anybody know of a solution other than just living without Swype beta?
Any thoughts?

Would anyone be willing to try to replicate the problem? All you would have to do is just make a nandroid, then go to /system/app and delete or rename Swype.apk and tell me what, if anything happens, see if your contacts app works...

i went about removing swype from my eclipse rom by using titanium backup to back it up then uninstalled it through there. I then booted into recovery and wiped dalvik cache, rebooted phone and installed swype beta, no issues for a month or so.
hope that helps
Ignore post sorry.
Wiping dalvik cache did not fix the problem.

First switch your input method to something other than Swype, Rename/remove the following files, reboot, then install Swype beta.
/system/app/swype.apk
/system/app/lib/libswypecore.so
/data/dalvik-cache/[email protected]@clases.dex
/data/data/com.swype.android.inputmethod.apk

I really hate Android Market. It's probably the worse app of all android apps (ironical isn't it?).
But one of the things that really makes me crazy is the "Update All" feature. It just never works! Not only that, it actually makes things worse!
Usually it tries to download all things at once which soon causes a crash of the app or device, after which the progress of all apps just stays stuck, even when they're 100% downloaded!
Then the only solution is to go over all of the apps, one by one, cancelling the download (after which the app is shown as "not installed" in the market!) and installing again.
So this superduper feature costs even more time than updateing one-by-one would!
Am I the only one experiencing this? I really hate it!
Streak with 1.6
No I have the same problem tics me off to
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I could be wrong but I don't think 1.6 supports the update all feature. In any case, I've never had that problem on either my streak or nexus one. Maybe if you cleared the cache in the market app that might help.
Sent from my Dell Streak using Tapatalk
it causes errors when an application that needs update requires permissions. these are not properly handled by 1.6 but should work in 2.2.
I just use AppBrain. Very useful to remember what apps you have installed if you have to do a total reset too.

Because Market gets often automatically updated and I hoped they'd fix such a problem soon (naive, I know).
New:
- Google Plus +1 integration
- Pin number for purchases.
- New settings menu.
- New icons

I'm looking for a reason to call Wells Fargo so try me lol. Jk.
And I downloaded it. Thanks.
Working great.
I just backed up my old market with titanium backup in case this one is not working good.
But working good so far.
Thanks for update.
Really needed this PIN code security before purchases.
This new update kills my 3g data again

Anyone receiving "!" when downloading anything with the new market?
Didn't know the source of the .apk (no offense OP). So I got it from androidpolice. MD5 match on both files. I've had 2 FC using new market already tho. I like the idea of PIN code for purchase.
It's working great for me! Thanks!
Nice. Works a lot better than my other version.
Thanks.
Working great for me, love the PIN feature. Uninstalled n reinstalled a few apps to make sure everything worked. Very quick.
Sent from the Darkside of the Atrix.
Why are a handful of my apps that are clearly installed, listed under not installed... then when you click on them, they only say open; so even the market knows they're installed, just not under MY APPS???
Already tried clearing data/chace for Market... no dice. Any Thoughts??
Try Titanium Backup's market fix
Several times now I've opened up the market and it shows only 2 apps in the My Apps section...I then have to clear data for the market app and then reopen and all is fine. Anyone else having this happen? It's not a huge issue, just slightly annoying. I'm running Alien #4.
i'm getting force close on this.
Is this an official release from Google or a modified app. by a developer?
I have version 3.0.27 installed but it does not updated automatically to the new version! why?
Hello all,
So I hate repetitiveness in the UI so I have swapped the dedicated VM button with an "goto/initiate SMS" button. We already have a voicemail button by pressing or dialing one why do we need two?

Glad to see you around here
very cool.
Any chance you can make the dialer numbers scalable as well? (for alternate DPI?)
Forcing the log button to stick on what you want logged would be great too. Right now, if you hit log or the press the green phone button, you get a log of all calls and SMS messages. You can switch it in the menu but it reverts right back to log all. I loved how my cappy would show you logs of just the phone calls made/recieved.
Nice + 1 setimg up now

Hate to ask but how do i install this? I tried uninstalling contacts in titanium backup and restarting first, but when I tried to install the apk it just said "not installed", I do have unknown sources allowed in settings.

Place it in system/app (to replace the existing one) via root explorer (and fix the permissions to match everything else in the folder, rw-r-r).
Is this for stock?

This does not work on a stock/rooted phone. Maybe on a custom rom but pushed it on a stock phone and the SMS button takes me to voicemail.
Here's the Swype APK I use on my phone, I cannot remember where I got this from so sorry if I didn't mention anyone.

Is there any mod available to make this keyboard taller?
It's about 1/2 inch shorter than the stock HTC Trace keyboard and too small for my taste - definitely harder to type and swipe on it, IMO.
Has Swype been fixed for our phone yet?
I've always updated my Swype to the latest beta, and still get the 'break' happening mid-screen. I swype quickly. So I'm forced to swype slowly to avoid the bug.

It's not a bug, per se. Go into your settings and under speed/accuracy, set it all the way to accuracy. Out phones reading more quickly than Swype. Changing this fixes it.

That definitely does not fix the problem (though it seems to make it better by interpreting small touch-breaks as not touch-breaks).
Swype has acknowledged this problem, and since this was (one of the) only phone that is 720p on gingerbread, they have stated that fixing it is not so much of an issue.
It is believed to stem from the fact that there aren't individually-sized PNG's anymore, it just 'stretches' the Swype keyboard to your screen (in our case, 720 pixels wide I suppose) and the break in the middle is due to how it does this.
If this 3.2.6 is 3.26, it is the version I already have installed and still has the issue.
I wanted to start a thread to source some ideas for improving the stability of CM9 that would be easy for anyone to implement. Please feel free to share yours. I'll try to update the OP semi-regularly with your suggestions.
Not necessarily arranged in order of effectiveness.
1) Fix permissions in recovery. I'm not sure what this technically does, but it seems to have helped with responsiveness and stability.
2) Modify read/write speed of SD card. This can be done easily with a variety of apps, but the one i chose to use was SD speed increase. I used the suggested value of 2048. Its really easy and seems to have made a difference in when I am playing music.
3) Changed media apps that I use frequently (apollo and beyondpod) to system apps with titanium backup. I cannot confirm if this has made a substantial difference, so I may remove this within the next couple of days.
4) Turned off surface dithering (settings--->performance) - not sure I noticed any difference in visual appearance or responsiveness.
5) Enabled 16 bit transparency (settings--->performance) - again, not sure if it actually did anything.
6) Using an app such as system tuner, disable unnecessary apps from automatically launching at startup.
7) Long press the back button to kill the foreground app. I do this for apps that I feel don't need to be running constantly, such as the browser, xda app, etc. This function can be enabled under settings--->development.
I haven't tried fixing permission yet but it may work. Has anyone tried format system. Some roms say format some don't.

I'm coming from a fresh install of CM9 beta1 (wiped cache, system, data and dalvik) and so far I have had 1 random reboot and just a few force closes. Haven't tried doing fix permissions, might do that later today and see what happens.
if a ROM says not to format system, it is likely because it automatically does it.

You can map the back button so that when its long pressed it kills the foreground app. That seems to help from having tons of apps running.
