CM9 Settings>Storage causes crash? - Android

I've got a question, hoping somebody here can give me a hand. I'm currently making a CM9 ROM for my Inc S, it's been compiled with dsixda's kitchen on Windows 7 64bit. I've gotten it to boot successfully and everything seems to be in working order. One problem though, whenever I go into the settings menu and try to access the storage settings, it crashes saying "settings has unexpectedly stopped" At first boot up, the MicroSD card also fails to mount. Not quite sure what's causing this problem, I'll look into it further myself tonight. Figured XDA might have some solutions for me though, so I asked.
Thanks. :good:

Edit:Useless

Feel like an idiot for posting 3 times in a row and bumping my own thread yet again... but I changed the question in the OP since I figured out the old problem on my own. Felt it was better to bump this thread and change the title/content instead of making yet another thread.
Once again apologies for the multiple posts.

GB on TB

Ok so I have been looking over the forums and I hope I didn't miss it if there is a post already about this so I am going to go ahead and ask away. If it has been posted and I did miss it then I apologize for beating a dead horse.
I have tried the Liquid Gingersense (v1.4, v1.5, and v1.6) and CyanogenMod (v7.1.0-RC1.5.2 and v 7.1.0-RC1.6.1) and have not had any luck. Along with some minor esthetic issues I had with the CyanogenMod, I had noticed that the Gingersense actually disabled my radio and I was unable to make any calls and the signal bars would just show up with an "x" next to it. I rebooted many times and kind of tinkered around and tried other ways of turning it on or playing with LTE on/off to see if that would help in any way and I never did get it enabled.
When I would look at the "Quick Setting" (if I recall the name correctly), the icon for me to enable it was greyed out so clicking on it did nothing at all. Has anyone had this issue? Did I perhaps miss doing something when setting this up? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
You mentioned that you had no signal with Gingersense but not with Cyanogenmod so I'm not sure if this is your case but did you flash the radio suggested for those roms? MR2, GB leak, etc. If not, you can find links in the pinned thread at the top of the Q/A.
Also, remember when switching between roms to wipe data/cache.
No actually I did not try that. So if I do get time to do that do I do the ROM then the radio thing? I do believe I came across a.radio deal and thought " I wonder if I need to install that?" But never tried. I figured it safer to ask and not break my phone than to break it and figure out how to fix it...lol

Ya sounds like you need to flash an Mr2 or higher radio. Check the q&a stickys for links and instructions.

Well I decided to give it another shot. I have GingerSense v1.7 installed and did the MR2 install and it all works perfectly. I have a few apps I need to reinstall and a couple icons to redo but other then that everything looks great and seems to work smooth. Thank you guys for the help. I greatly appreciate it.
Actually the only issue I am having right now is that every...I dont know maybe 5 minutes or so there is an error that pops up that Im not sure how to get rid of. It says...
"The application Google Services Framework (process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
Any ideas or thoughts about this?
Well I think I have discovered the root of this error. I have noticed that when I text and if o click on the Mic to do voice to txt that even though the screen pops up as if it OS going to record, it does absolutely nothing. How to fix it is where I am still stumped though.
Sent from my h4x0r3D ADR6400L using XDA App
Well it seems I have been noticing some weird things that are making me think maybe I should try Gingersense v1.5
At first my camera was working but Im not sure why it isnt now. I cant do pics or video and lastnight when I was trying to Skype with my cousin in CA the video cam didnt work for me. I also have been getting two different errors...
1) The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
-AND-
2) The application Talk (process com.google.android.talk) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I also had noticed that it seems to take a bit longer for the phone to boot in comparison to what it used to and especially when it was brand new and not yet rooted. I have a custom static image that says "HTC quietly rooted" and a WWII themed Android boot animation". When I reboot I get a black screen for about 30 seconds then the custom HTC image comes up for about 20-25 seconds then the custom animation plays THEN once that's done I'm booted into my phone.
Is there any kind of way to cut those times down for faster booting? Well I think I will have to keep messing with this and see what I can do...

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Task Camera APK...

I can't post in the thread because I am new which is completely ridiculous, but I just wanted the camera apk from Task 10 since the one on Task 11 force closes. I'd really appreciate it if anybody can upload that for me. Thanks in advance.
here man http://dev-host.org/ojzt02lxvujw/Camera_Calc_Fix.zip and this one is for screen capture http://dev-host.org/y4qy3beiw9ov/ScreenCapture_Fix.zip flash them in cwm, these files were posted yesterday on the thread by task so next time take your time and ready it please
If that doesn't work...
Remember to read the OP very carefully. If you are still having problems after the fix (I am, but it is just a lag with the back button showing up) WIPE EVERYTHING. Read Task's OP completely for directions. Also, the new GT11 Slim is missing the ASUS weather clock widget. I added it back using the Meta file in the camera fix and throwing the apk in a zip folder with it. Flashed with CWM and it works fine. Still checking on what is also missing/broken. Otherwise this new update is pretty smooth.
Anyway, use the fixes and if you have anymore questions, feel free to ask.
Thanks a million guys and I apologize for not thoroughly checking the thread (even though I read it every day lol). Appreciate the links and I love this tablet to the bone. Blessings.

NT CM7 support thread

Now that we've released CM7 again for the NT I thought I'd best start up a proper support thread. Pleas keep it as back reports and help.
Please use this thread to post feedback and to ask questions. The Dev thread is for exactly that, development and not support! Please keep the development thread clear of support and feedback posts.
Live support may be available on irc.freenode.net irc channel #nook-tablet-chat, if any of us are around we'll be happy to help but don't bug people if they are busy please. A web version of irc is available here http://webchat.freenode.net?channels=nook-tablet-chat
When posting a bug or issue please use the following format
Which install are you using (Internal or SD):
What version is your CM7 download that you are using (should be alpha final now):
Do you have any mods on your NT (updates or system modifications)
If yes to above what have you installed

I'm awaiting a Mod cleanup of this thread and all previous bugs up until the new release will be removed from this thread, should knock it back down to about 2 or 3 pages and give me the 2nd and 3rd posts I mention above.
There's a lengthy black screen between the Team B splash and the CM7 boot animation on the first boot at least. Don't panic.

Thanks for mentioning this, I just added it into the instructions for everyone so they don't think they've messed up
there was no link to market. Flashed gapps and there still was no link to the market.
I sideloaded the market and it told me I was replacing a system app, overwrote it, now there is a market icon.
??
Also had to eject and re insert my sd card to be recognized.
Edit: Maybe there is not supposed to be, as I have never used CM7 before, but Busybox does not come with this ROM?

As mentioned above you need to connect to wifi for market to show up. The SD card issue seems to effect certain devices, usually after the first time of having to eject and re insert your card it won't happen again
I swear too many threads to keep up with and u know I always read but yeah ill probably wipe ne ways just cuz start fresh and all

Yup . first thing I did was connect to wireless..Reflashed ROM , seems to be OK now.
Neither of these are high priority items but still can't access B&N store or magazines.
Otherwise very, very impressed.
I for one can say this is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally, full market access. You guys have done a wonderful job putting this together. Fast to install. Fast to boot. Wifi setup no problem. This is what I can say that I have been waiting for--You have done yourselves proud. Thank you for what you have done.
setup wizard crash
so went through the steps. boot up.. and setup wizard along with everything else crashes out.. what do i do now?
installed gravity guy by unmounting SD. loving it so far!
OK - I will be the brave one here. I didn't want to lose all the customizations since the original download. So... I just installed the zip file and only wiped cache. So far I have given every app on my NT a quick run through and everything is working great. In fact, it came right up, automatically logged onto my wifi, and proceeded same as before. I love the new boot screen!
One note - I did get a FC message the first time I ran Google Maps. However, it still started up, even with the message. So I went back and started and stopped several times and could not replicate. Must be a start-up issue.
Second note - perhaps this is the "joy of a new toy" category, but my screen appears much crisper and with more details. In addition, when using a stylus, it is reacting much faster with more accuracy. Perhaps the video improvements helped this as well???
Overall - fantastic job guys.

Did you wipe data as suggested in the OP? I had similar problems first time I tried installing CM7 and then once I wiped Data all was well... Just know wiping data really does delete all you data so make sure you make a Titanium Backup before installing If you want to more easily restore your prior apps and data.
went back into recovery and wiped a second time.. all good now.. truly amazing btw

There should be no need what so ever to have to remove your SD card to install anything now, I just installed gravity boy with my SD card in.
If this is failing on your device please consider wiping data as it's possible you have some stuff left over from a previous install on your machine.
Wiping data will reset your device back to basic CM7 so you will loose anything installed and all your settings.
Performance seems to have improved to a noticeable degree. I know Gonce mentioned overclocking but I don't see evidence of that (at a glance).
Battery seems to be charging much more quickly. I was pretty low when I installed so can't speak to drainage yet.
Otherwise I haven't found any problems yet.
Well, followed your instructions to the T, Celtic, must say it's very impressive how quickly this is shaping up to be a great build. I also love that you now have the internal storage accessible within the OS as well. Very cool.
One minor thing though - it seems like my SD card isn't detected on boot. I've got to re-insert it when the device powers on. I know this isn't necessarily a big deal because most people keep it on from days to weeks putting it to sleep rather than fully powering off, but it is a tiny bit odd. Other than that, though, no other SD card issues to remark of so far. Excellent work. Truly excellent.
EDIT: I also took the liberty of linking to your fancy new public alpha ROM on the CM7 wiki's unofficial ports page. Hope you don't mind.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Unofficial_Ports#Barnes_.26_Noble_Nook_Tablet
The sdcard issue is known. It should be fine after first boot.
As for the OC, I don't believe that update is ready yet.
I have been running this particular build for days. I have had absolutely zero FC's. I haven't had issues with any apps not installing. Hell, we even got Whatsapp working on it for the most part by setting it up on a phone and Tibu'ing it into this build.

it happened to one of our testers actually, every reboot required sd to be ejected and put back in, they popped the sd in the computer for something, then when it went back to Nook it never did it again.... Not sure if it's a slight corruption on the SD which the nook doesn't like. Nook is really fussy with SD's anyway so it might just be a little bug, there's nothing we’ve found so far to help if it's a software issue. Could be a timeout issue but I notice for some people it doesn't realise it's been ejected either ...

Bugs / Issues from the internal version
Market will not work properly after the update unless you install the GApps (follow link in Dev thread)
Wifi sometimes does no reconnect after sleep, simply tap on the status bar to get notification up and toggle wifi off / on and it should reconnect.
There is currently no Reboot to Recovery option in the power menu, you can do this instead by going to rom manager (make sure it's updated via Market / Play)
Mounts aren't working properly due to a typo on 2 lines in build.prop. update zip to be flashed via CWM available HERE
There is still a possible issue with formatting. A member has said that asking the software to format the /media partition totally wiped his entire device completely removing the partition table creating a paperweight. As has been mentioned many times in both thread about CM7, if any formatting needs to be done please do it from a computer and if in the case of the Media partition that's not possible just delete files instead of formatting. Due to the risk involved we have not yet attempted to recreate this issue on our own devices!
Bugs / Issues from the SD version
System will reboot if you remove the SD card, this is completely normal and you should not remove the SD while device is running from it.

Just reading the official B&N FAQ for the nook tablet, it indicates "Do NOT turn off your NOOK while it is charging; just allow it to go into sleep mode automatically".
I'd been turning it off to charge also, I think i'll follow their directions and see if it charges faster.
The question i'm quoting is: "How long does it take to fully charge my NOOK?" In the "hardware" category.

Thanks for the link. I'll try to charge it without turning the nook off. if it does charge faster, the question would be, "is there any way for it to charge quickly while off?"
On a side note,I did wonder why the nook would always boot up when I plug in the charger after the nook powered down from low battery.
Thank you sir
Just a quick thanks to Celtic & the rest of the people working on the Nook Tablet... thanks!!! Btw, on one of your forum thread pictures I've noted that your screen is quite smudgy. If you need a screen protector for your nook or any of your newer 8 GB models, let me know, at your service.
And as a side note, I've got absolutely no issues w/ your Alpha CM7 release. No wifi issues, nada. Perhaps this is because my wifi network is password less and only authentication method is via wireless mac filter. Only thing if anything is that sometimes (seldomly) when I swap SD Cards while it's powered on, the device will display the Cyanogen 7 boot animation while booted. A quick rotation from portrait to landscape mode fixes this and allows you to press the home button and "home on out" of this.
*** Btw, if you need a screen protector for any of your nooks, w/o hesitation let me know!! Thanks!

Celtic, I have been thinking, now that you have a new version up, (By the way, you rock) are you going to start a new support thread? This one is VERY long and a little bit daunting, and I am sure that the new rom will bring with it new bugs. This one is almost excessively about video playback and wifi, and the new rom (As I understand) fixes both.
Who would have thought that casually asking if CM7 would be easier and less time consuming could have led to this well polished and very impressive result?

hi guys, just wanted to say about 2 issues that i saw on my NT.
1. The sleep issue - I've saw that was already posted about 5 pages ago, just wanted to tell i got it too ... after closing the NT the second day could not start it up... had to long press power button a couple of times (didn't knew about shortcut PWR + N button)
2. somehow related to the first one. While playing music, after approx 15 min the sounds stops . I've pressed the Pwr on NT and the playlist is on screen and a song appear to be playing but no sound. I've tried to go to running applications too force kill the app but a get a error message about Force/wait/ ... After that I tried to restart with long press and selected restart/shutdown but it doesn't do anything , again had to long press to shut it down.
Hope this helps, i could try to get some logs if that helps.
Thanks.

Well I finally had to downgrade to v2.6 before it would work correctly. It's not as feature-rich as the latest version, but it does work now.
Just noticed something...doesn't the first post normally have a link to the software being discussed?
I have been running your first release since its inception, and it has IMO, ran fantastic compared to the first release of CM7 for the old Nook Color at this current point. That NC unit and its early CM7 was a great way to learn to troubleshoot bootloops and SOD's!
Anyway, I downloaded your updated CM7 Alpha 12 straight to the tablet and installed. I wanted to try install with only a cache and dalvik wipe first. This went surprisingly well and has been running smooth for several hours now. So far so good!
The first glitch I had on install was the old Market and updated Google play seemed to fight each other with their update. Once the browser was up, I downloaded the new Google Play apk and installed overwritting the old Market directly. Then it took well. After a reboot, all apps were restored using Titanium Backup, and another reboot. I did have one point where I had to pop the SD and reinsert as expected but no prob there.
I want to thank you and all other Team B Devs for this great work. Donation inbound!

Good point!
This thread will be almost completely wiped soon when the new internal verison is released, its' getting rather long now and people don't read when it's only a few pages so with 65 pages theres no chance!
When the thread is cleared I'll add in links to the software at the begining too. I'll also be requesting that people post in a set manor. Something like
CM7 build download number (e.g. alpha 12)
Device version (8gb or 16gb)
Install type (sd or internal)
How long have you been running the build?
Short description of bug:
Have you had this bug more than once ?
Can this bug be reproduced on demand, if so how?
Hopefully that will make things easier for everyone ! Although I fully expect many people won't do it like that because they won't have even bothered reading the read to know to do it!
Celtic, do you still plan to release an SD card version also?

Just Flashed Rom
Ok, so this was a bit daunting for me. I've rooted my EVO several times, with several roms and had little difficulty. The NT, however was an horse of a different color.
I first used Nook and Zergy a month or so ago. Never got it working good, but good enough (better than stock B&N)
Then I tried using CMW_SD_flash_and_exe. After much frustration yesterday, I finally figured out that the NT won't boot from the SD card unless the power cable is plugged in. I could finally get into a boot loader program, but kept getting installation aborted when trying to install the ZIP. The CM7_NT_Alpha12_Public1.zip was too big once I made my SD card a boot loader, so I ended up copying this Zip to the tablet's internal memory and installing from there.
I don't know if i'm truly "rooted" in the sense that I can now boot the nook into recovery mode any time, or if I will need to use the SD card to load new ROMs.
My phone is working such that I can reboot into recovery mode any time I want without an SD card. Not sure how I would do that with the NT, or if I'm comparing apples to oranges as it were.
Anyway, all seems to be working, I wiped cache/dalvik cache/data and rebooted. CM7 seems to have loaded, I put in my google account and it's off to the races. After sharing my phones WiFi (thanks to being rooted) my NT is now dl all my installed apps. I think I upgraded to Play from Market so for now I think all is well! Sorry for the long post, but wanted to share my defeats and my success!

[Q] "mobile odin has stopped working"

I have a T Mobile GS5 which I Towel-rooted soon after purchase. It is currently running the stock NE6 build.
I wanted to upgrade w/ the Mobile Odin app and maintain root. However, after paying for and installing Mobile Odin (4.20), when I open the app, it immediately crashes and says it has stopped working. Given the option to report the failure or close, I chose to report. This returns a message that the google play store has stopped working.
Am I just being stupd? I have searched high and low for some similar posting or support and can find nothing.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for any help.....

Everyone says that they have searched, whether they have or not. It's too bad that you didn't tell us how you tried to search. Or what keywords you used, we could have helped you improve your searches. There are a ton of xxxx (app) has stopped working threads, so it's difficult to understand how you didn't find any.
You should have a second look as there is a wealth of information in existing threads. But to summarize briefly, you can try these steps -
You may not have installed the support files properly. Read the directions carefully and reinstall the app.
Try wiping your cache from recovery mode.
Clear the app's cache and data in the application manger in the settings menu.
As a last resort, close any background apps that may be causing a conflict.

None of the threads I saw, and there were many, addressed odin not opening at all. Never since loading. Most folks have issues w/ flashing the wrong types of files, or not checking some box. I have never seen the odin screen. And in any search I have never seen that problem described.
When you say supporting files, what are you referring to? I know that the MO lite offered here requires supporting files, but I paid for mine, didnt know it wasnt complete. I tried loading up the lite version and got the same thing, instant shutdown. Makes me think that it is not an issue with MO but maybe something on my phone. Are you aware of any background apps which may cause conflict? I cleared the MO cache and data. Also forced a stop and rebooted. And removed/reinstalled.
So by posting here, I am not really looking to refine my searches so much as looking for someone who maybe had the same issue, overcame it, and is willing to share that insight to relieve my stupidity. I guess that wouldn't be you, although I appreciate your thoughts on the subject.

I appreciate your forthright candor. It's not possible to help everyone, so I choose to put my time towards helping those who tried to search the forum before posting. Just as you prefer to have someone who has been through the same experience provide you the answer. I'm not sure that is an efficient strategy except for the most common problems.
The likely solution is as I summarized earlier for any app that presents a ".. stopped working" message. Perhaps as you hope, someone who has had the same issue can further advise you. Good luck.

After going back and reading some more, something hit me, it was always kinda right there......
Looking at the screenshot of the MO display, i noticed the 'clear dalvik cache' command. Reminded me that I had been screwing around and had turned ART on to see how it ran. Wonder where the 'clear art cache' box is..............oh.
Turned dalvik back on, runs like a champ. just downloaded the addons, opened the tar I had on the external sd and I think I'm ready.
As I never did see a thread referring to this specific issue I figured I would document for the forum's info.
I appreciate you taking the time to respond.
had the same problem
