Market app freezes phone - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I didn't know where to post this, so here it goes.
I'm having some trouble. I'm running CM nightly #115. I flashed the Google Apps package from here (the one for CyanogenMod 7). Now sometimes when I'm in the Android Market app, not only does it FC, but it freezes my phone so I have to reboot it.
Scrolling through the app details is what causes the freezes
I've tried CM 7.1 stable, several nightlies and MIUI, but it keeps happening!
I also tried cleaning cache, data and uninstalling updates, for the Market app. Nothing works!
Can you please help me?

Yes, tried that. Didn't work.

thought it was only me and that my phone was a lemon but i simply left all cm an miui aside after about a year of loyalty and went back to an asop rom (crysis 2.0) and it really not that bad going back.. i mean its not miui as far as customization and smoothness but its mad stable with absolutely no issues at all and i cant see myself going back to having "a perfect rom except ..... "..

Happens to me the same. I'm using NDT MIUI v10 and from what i noticed it happens only when i'm charging it from the USB port and at the same time browsing the market (just market).
Browsing the market without charging presents no issues. From what i've read around it has something to do with static electricity (might be wrong though) because i am not using the stock usb cable, but a Nokia one.
I've tested with various kernels, nothing seems to fix it. So far i got used not to use the market while the phone is plugged in.
If anyone has any explanation or even better, a fix, i'm interested in it.

Same problem here. Phone totally freezes when downloading and installing something from market while is plugged in. I have original usb cable and charger. It happens either when plugged to the laptop or to the wall charger.
Now running miui 1.2.16. previously I was running GalnetMIUI and with the last update this issue started going on randomly using market app. never happened before with cm7. I didn't try wiping data cuz I'm waiting to do so for the ics miui v4.

The weird thing is that it doesn't matter if the phone is charging or not.
Scrolling through the app details is what causes the freezes (this screen).
This must be a flaw with the Market app

I made a thread here:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/39058-market-freezes-phone/
It looks like I'm not the only one experiencing this.

same here..on cm7..
no problem with old market..it looks like market 3.4.4 not liking cm7 based roms
back to stock rom for now..

The same problem here.flashed many kernel to get fix, and relashing rom,even up and downgrade miui, changing themes,but nothing help. I'll freeze on market when scrolling down.

I also tried 3.1.2.
It didn't happen immediately, but after I scrolled in app details in several apps, it finally happened. The bug is there, but not as effective.

Flash another older version.. till bugs gone. I also flashed another kernel.. i dont know if flashing another kernel would help,but it work for me, the bugs bunny is in the market waiting to freeze me when im on siyah 2.6, i flashed fluxi kernel, still the same, then flashed excell69 kernel.. seems like the bugs bunny has return back to disneyland. Im happy now.
But this is just for temporary, coz today there will be another version of miui will release, to flash new rom and hope this bunny will not appear again.
Ill post it here for you if anything happen.

Browser force closes on payal website? Bamf 1.6.3

I just flashed 1.6.3 last night and noticed this morning if I try to go to the paypal website the browser seems to automatically close. Seems to be just that site so far. Is this a problem just on my phone or is it a known about problem with a fix that I gotta flash?
Maybe it's due to the removal of Flash. Reinstall Flash from market and see if it resolves your issue. Or, better yet use a different ROM.

Yup, I think it might be a flash issue. Installing one from the market should fix it. Had the same issue on this same rom, then moved to another rom thinking it was a rom issue but then still had the same problem. When I installed flash from the market, the issue stopped completely.

Das Bamf 2.1 and Google Music

I flashed my first ROM last night, and tried to play music using Google Music Beta, which I downloaded from the market. When I try to play the music, the app keeps on force closing. I tried reinstalling the app, tried reflashing the rom, but nothing seems to work. Any help would be appreciated.
Did you perform a full wipe before flashing the rom? I'm running 2.1 (remix) as well using mr2.5 and the kernel that came packed with BAMF 2.1. Having no issues using google music beta. Don't have much in the way of advice, just chiming in to help you narrow down where your issue is coming from (namely that the rom itself shouldn't be the issue). Might want to verify the md5, never know when you might snag a bunk download.

Yes, I performed a full wipe before flashing the ROM, assuming that means data/factory reset, cache, dalvik cache, battery stats...did that three times. Not sure if I am supposed to do it more. Also checked the md5, downloaded and flashed it twice more after the first time, and still can't get it to work.
Hrm, afraid I don't have much else to suggest outside of verifying settings within the music app itself. As I said, was primarily just letting you know the rom itself shouldn't be the issue. Sorry I cant be of more assistance . Might try a different rom and see if the issue persists, but if you're liking the 2.1 thats far from an actual solution even if it does solve the problem.

Never mind, I thought I got it working, but after playing a song, it crashed. I might just go back to stock rom, not a really big issue.

I was having the same problem (just 20 minutes ago). The app would load, the albums and tracks would appear, and then when I went to play one of them it would force close. What I did to correct the problem was to to reflash 2.1 in recovery without wiping. I let in reboot and now its working fine.
I am running bamf 2.0 - 5 and it works for me.
Although it Sometimes makes my phones signal drop to 1x so maybe flash a new radio?

Tried this, then even flashed the new ROM RC1 and RC2, and still am unable to get it working. Any help is appreciated. I just keep on getting the same issue, Error playing requested track. And then when I go to check the app data, I see the numbers going in and out, flickering, and have to force stop and then uninstall.

ATM, I am using Lighting Rom 3.3.1, which is a Froyo ROM, but I might try one of the other Gingerbread ROM's available. But I really did love that DasBamf ROM, and the issue seems to be amongst just a few of us.
Bump.
Still having Google Music force close on Das BAMF RC3. Can anyone confirm that it works?
I can confirm I'm having the same issue with BAMF 2.1 stripped. I tried reloading the rom without wiping and fixing permissions and still getting a force close when I attempt to play anything from the cloud.

It is listed as a known issue in the RC3 thread, but they are having trouble reproducing it. I had the same problem with RC1, but after I wiped and loaded RC3, it appears to be working fine now. I only loaded it last night and tested a little this morning though, so problems could still develop. When I was having trouble with RC1, I tried the procedure of uninstalling Google Music, unmounting SD card, reinstalling Music, and then remounting SD card. It didn't work with RC1, but I did the same thing prior to testing Music on RC3. I have no idea if that made any difference either way, but it won't hurt to try.
Edit: The known issue could be referring to the HTC Music app, not the Google one, now that I look at it again.(Still reading through the entire RC3 thread)

It was indeed the HTC Music app that is the known issue. I posted in the thread, and I provided a logcat, so hopefully someone with more experience than me can understand it.
I'm having the same issue on DAS BAMF 2.1 on latest lean kernel.
I can get it working 99% of the time with wifi only. If i use 3g or 4g the app force closes. I've tried different kernels as well.
Anyone else able to confirm if this issue is wifi/3g/4g related? Im able to use the player only if I use wifi.
Maybe this can help the devs push out a patch in 2.2
I am using it right now on RC3

I'm also able to get it to work if i wirelessly tether to another thunderbolt. Only time I have an issue is if I'm using the 3g/4g radio.

I mean I can access music.google.com from the browser but that kind of defeats the purpose of the app/widget.
My friend who has the same rom isn't getting the issue.

Install it again, clear all the app's data, then uninstall and grab the new version from the market again. This worked for me.

I just tried and had no issues. I did the update yesterday and hadn't tried it until I saw this thread. Works great and I noticed the task bar acts the same hiding itself like when watching YouTube video!
Try uninstalling, reboot and clear dalvik and then install from market.

Yeah I'm still stuck in this boat as well. I've also tried clearing data, restarting, then installing again, with no success.
I updated, the app would not start, just a black screen. I uninstalled the app, went to market, reinstalled, powered down, turned back on and have the new Netflix compatible with tablets. It is nice to not have the grey touchwiz bar when watching now. Stock.

Did uninstall/install, wiped data, reboot.... still new Netflix is sitting on a first "logging" screen endlessly.
May be this is have something to do with custom, rooted ROM? Previous version is doing just fine.

For me the same. I have in Paris 4 and the newest Pershoot.
But for the moment I just use the old version.
A new version is on the Market.... Version 1.5.1 build 367. . October 19th, 2011 ... Fixed incompatability with Cyanogen Mod 7.
The one yesterday was build 360...... Still doesn't work for me.... Anybody sucessful with this one?
I am having the same issue, In Paris V4 mod. Worked on none moded OS.
Same problem for me. Tried uninstalling rebooted, wiped dalvic and still stuck on red logo screen. Running latest Task650 v7.2 with pershoots latest oc kernel. Sad no Hulu now no Netflix
Edit: Reverted back to my rooted stock with pershoots latest oc kernel and Netflix is now working again Looks like I'll be sticking around my stock rom for a bit till this is sorted out.
Looks like its not In Paris V4 as I contacted a few people and they have the latest version of Netflix and its working for them. I'm going to go through some of my apps and try to remove them to see if anything helps...
Hey you guys. This has nothing to do with any of my roms. I am running the latest netflix with no issues whatsoever. This is an issue with the app itself or the user not attempting to clear data and cache for the app, or something that i really have no clue about. I'm going to do my best to look into this issue but I'm not so sure I will be able to find the cause considering I can't replicate the issue.
WATCH THIS!

Help please, HTC desire doing weird things.

Hello everyone,
I have major problems with my htc desire. It was running on cyanogen mod 7 then all of a sudden it started going very slow, the animation and application were very very slow. Also, the phone seemed like to freeze because the hour would stop running thus being late. And the worse, at some point the phone just goes off and restart, also very slowly.
Oh and I forgot, when it goes suddenly slow and I touch it,it vibrates.
Here it is, I tried to change the rom several times and now I am on leedroid 2.5 but it still has the same problem.
Does anyone know what to do ?
Thank you very much
Flash different kernel, try to clear cache, may be an issue on your Rom too
Accidentally sent from my Google Nexus S using XDA Premium
Where can I find kernels ? And can I use any ones with the leedroid 2.5 rom ?
Depends on the kernel.go to your desire development zone, search for thread started with [kernel]
Accidentally sent from my Google Nexus S using XDA Premium
And how exactly can I change the kernel please ? Do I just flash it ?
Yes, you just flash it in recovery like you would flash a ROM. But make sure you use a kernel that is compatible with AOSP.
Well I flashed this one kernel-bravo-2.6.32.38-leedroid-110416 but I still have the same problem...
Have you tried flashing to stock and testing if issue persists? Basically if it isnt the ROM, kernel, or a non-stock app, (one you installed) it's a hardware issue.
Can also try to see whats causing the slowdown either with a process or memory manager.
A little possibility that your apps make these weird things:
Try to think what have you installed before this.
