After flashing RC1... - Motorola Droid X2

Well I flashed RC1 and "market" automatically started installing/updating certain apps including superuser. Well I forgot to update the su binary first and when I tried it would get stuck on the "checking current version" stage so I rebooted my phone and opened superuser again and it worked. Successfully updated binary after su app updated. Right on.. Time to restore my data/apps via Titanium Backup Pro... Done. Okay so I figure all is okay until I go to go somewhere that I need to use my GPS.....Then I noticed navigation is gone....so is maps...YouTube...."Google Play" is the only Google app on my phone... If I try to DL any missing Google apps from Play Store, it just hangs and will not download. Also yes I am 100% positive that I flashed the gapps zip after the update. I've tried out virtually every ROM for this phone multiple times so I have enough experience not to mess something so simple up. Plus, I've flashed CM7 on my X2 like 50 times & have the install instructions memorized and yes I know they slightly changed for RC1...
Anyways...
My question is do I need to do a full wipe and start fresh? (Sbf 2.3.4/Reinstall CM) Can I just flash gapps zip again? If I do will I have to wipe big 3 or nothing at all?....How did this happen lol? Was it because I updated su app then rebooted & updated binary after?? Was it maybe because I tried to restore all apps including gapps via TBPro?? I forgot to uncheck them and just ran the whole batch operation.
I would have posted in DZKs topic but I can't post in android development.
I would just try to go for it and flash the gapps zip again, but I'm not home anymore and won't be again for probably a week at the least. Not comfortable doing it if I get something wrong. No phone for a week is no good!! Lol sorry for the long post any help or general insight is greatly welcomed

Nevermind....Phone started acting real laggy and buggy once I got down to around 20% battery life. I plugged in my phone and rebooted it. All Google apps are back now however they showed up in random order in my app drawer. Instead of being alphabetical like it usually is, it's completely random. XDA is on page 2 and easy tether is on the last page, lol
Edit: just had to re-sort apps by alphabetical order under go launcher app drawer settings. All okay now

Same apps were missing for me after I did a batch install in TB. I looked in Backup/Restore selection, second on top in the main TB screen and found them at the very bottom as uninstalled. I just selected them there and restored app plus data. My wifi is still iffy and I get a lot of process system force close notifications that dont seem to do harm when I click force close or 'wait'. I do get more FC on RC1. I can't remember if you talked about that last half in your thread. Since I'm typing on my phone I don't feel like going back to check so yyyaaaaa

Hmmm. In RC1 I get 2 force closes right off the bat as soon as it boots up. Says Process DPS Manager has crashed. I hit force close and another one pops up. force close that one as well and I'm all set. Don't usually get any more FC's. Only other thing is I can't get Opera browser to work on this ROM. It boots up and says opera then it just closes. No FC or anything. Oh well back to dolphin HD. Rebooting nor clearing apps data will get opera to work for me which I find weird because I was actually using it the day I flashed rc1. Hasn't worked since
Hahaha had to edit....soon as I posted this the XDA app FC'd

CM7 problems/questions

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.

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.

Market 2.2.11 force close

I can't for the life of me get the Android Market to launch using VEGAn-Tab. The setup of the ROM goes fine, but when I try to launch the app it force closes immediately - no chance to even put in my Google info.
I've tried making a backup from my phone, I've tried downloading both the APK for 2.2.11 and the zip to flash from the internet, I've tried the file included in this thread which apparently helped someone else. I also tried changing permissions on the Vending.apk file to 777 (yes, extreme), even tried another version - 2.2.6 I believe. I've tried the clear cache and uninstall update "fixes" but considering I've never been able to launch this app those aren't available options.
What can I do? It works on other ROMs but CM isn't really tablet ready and I'm not a fan at all of TnTLite.
Bump.
Spent the last couple days trying to recover from bricking my tablet so I've been ignoring this thread, but I've got it running again. I would REALLY like to run VEGAn-Tab, but without this fix I'm going to have to throw in the towel and use another ROM.

[Q] have a bit of a problem here

ok so a couple days ago i downloaded cm 7.0.2 via rom manager but i usually install new roms manually with clockworkmod and the install worked ok but i noticed when i booted my aria that google didnt restore my apps this isnt a problem as i can redownload them but then i started downloading my apps and certain apps like google maps angry birds zynga poker and some others they wont download i click accept permissions and install but then when i open my notifications window right before they start to download they disappear i dont know if what im about to say will affect this but 7.0.2 was giving me problems so i went to my restore options and in advanced restore i can only restore to 1 backup out of like 8 and when i try the others it says md5 sums missing and aborts the restore any help? and also i went from cm 7.0.2 to 7.0.0
Same thing happened to me, was very frustrating but what I did was hook phone up to pc and download a different rom (Like attn1's 2.2). Then go to recovery and delete all data and stuff like that and install rom onto phone then boot up and go back delete all data and finally install cm7. This is just what I did and it worked so maybe u can give it a go and see if it works for yourself!
Stop using ROM Manager. Turn the phone off and boot directly into recovery by holding volume down + power button.

Just a side note but make sure your phone isnt plugged in when you perform a nandroid backup or try to flash anything. This can cause errors. Not sure if thats what happened here, but to have 7 out of 8 nandroid backups corrupt is definitely not normal behavior.
As for the market problem, this just happens from time to time on cm7. Ive had it happen and there have been several people that have posted the same problem. Sometimes I have to attempt a download 3-4 times before it will actually download from the market.

[Q] GApps Force Closing on MIUI

Alright guys, I'm in need of some help.
I've been flashing MIUI on my Fascinate for months now and recently I've run into a problem. On RickS' 1.12.9 I'm getting a lot of FCs. About 24-48 hours after flashing and setting up my phone I get a notification at boot that every GApp along with TB, Facebook, Script Manager have "stopped unexpectedly" and need to be force closed. My flash process is as follows:
1) ODIN either DL09 or EH03
2) ODIN CWM4
3) 3 finger boot to CWM and flash RickS 1.12.9
4) Everything is fine up to here
5) TB - Restore missing user apps (just apps, not data)
6) Set up Supercharger script (update9 RC5 test 2), Voltage Control OC/UV, Glitch kernel leakage/screen state
7) Reboot
8) Wait about a day and a couple of reboots later for the force close party to start.
Has anyone run into a similar problem? I've tried a few solutions (i.e. mixing up my flash routine, fix permissions...)
Thanks,
EJ
EDIT: Also, whenever I flash weblexa's builds after step 7 I get stuck in a bootloop. I'm going to try to just flash it and reboot to see if I don't get stuck (which, if I don't probably means that something I'm doing while setting up my apps and such is the cause of the problems).

I have had this same issue, and for months it drove me nuts cause I couldn't figure out the problem.
It didn't happen so much with all google apps, mainly the market, but I did get it on others.
What used to work for the market, set your language in the phone settings. Not market settings, the phone. I set mine to English (United States) and I didn't get a FC on market since.
With other google apps, or other apps in general there are a couple a things you can try.
1. If you changed any permissions, i.e. disabled apps from loading on boot, turn them back on 1 at a time. When I disable Google Talk from loading.. I get FC's.
2. Try a clearing data/cache for the app and re-installing over the app... or clearing data/cache and uninstall... and re-install.
3. Have you changed your screen DPI? Below 190ish causes problems for me, like if I dial a number it FC's.
There is a couple more, I just got out of class and can't think of em for the life of me. I will post when it comes to me.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the quick reply!
1) No permissions were changed.
2) I tried wiping davik/cache. As for the individual apps, the vast majority of the ones that are FCing are system apps; uninstalling isn't exactly an option unless I just remove them from the rom.
3) DPI hasn't been touched.

I would be willing to bet you have alot of apps installed and your datadata folder is full. There is a thread on rootzwiki on how to fix this if uninstalling or moving apps to sd is not an option for you.

facebook app won t install

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.
I have not had any issues installing Facebook so in bit sure what to say. Is your device telling you that's it's out of space?

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.

What I have to do to get installed is going to play store, initiate the download and install. When it's sat there for a little bit, reboot the phone.
