Longhorn 2.9.1 - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Longhorn 2.9.1 installed and it works perfect except some of the changes in the system setings aren't saving properly unless I do a restart and with a 3-5 min loading time, it's frustrating.
For example, I needed earlier to use GPS and I couldn't activate it until I restarted the phone.
I already done a data wipe and a factory reset but this problem with the system setings persists.
Another example was with turning on/off 3G and WiFi. I experienced the same issue even with turning on different services, like juice defender.

try longhorn 2.7 first and then wipe data/factory reset , wipe dalvik cache and do dell factory default too...
if it manages to go into lockscreen... you can then try to flash longhorn 2.9 ....

Tried it and it keeps telling me "You cannot be signed in at this time. Please try again later". This happens no matter how many times I try to log in. Tried it with WIFi and 3G and still nothing
Any chances to make skype work on Longhorn 2.7?

I suppose you could try (from home) settings->applications->manage applications, find "Gmail storage", tap it and choose "clear data" and have it re-sync from scratch.
(It may not be "Gmail storage" - if you don't have that, do the same for "Gmail". If you do need to wipe data for Gmail, just note that you may have to go back over the gmail settings to change any settings that you may have customized.)
I've had this happen to me a lot in the past, mostly when I restore a NAND. Really the only thing you could try would be to wipe Dalvik and flash gapps. However when this happens to me I usually do a full data/dalvik wipe (not a factory reset, but wipe from recovery), reflash the ROM and gapps (if the ROM does not come with it baked in, i.e. CELBfroyo).
I can't attest to the first option, I always go for the wipe and reflash just to ensure a clean install.
I just recently restored from a cm7 rom of tazz's, flashed back to tazz floyo v5, same thing happened again. The counter in my gmail app counts messages that are coming in but never show. I go to computer to check gmail, they are there. Anyone find a fix yet?
Please help, very annoying...

Tango Video Calling working on my streak.

Please update your Tango app. I just tested it. It works on my 2.2 streak running streakdroid 1.81.
I love this video call app. enjoy!
And by working I mean the front facing camera is recognized and I am able to switch back and forth between cameras during a video call.
OMG FINALLY i grabbed my phone as soon as i saw this post
Just Tango'd my brother who has the EVO, worked fine, decent visuals under the limits of Wifi that I'm under at work, #happycamper
Just updated to 1.8.1 and tried to install tango but I keep on getting error message that I have insufficient memory when I install it. Tried to install other apps like yahoo messenger to check but it was ok. Anybody else having a problem installing tango?

Bah! WiFi only. I can't do that at work because they don't give us the wifi password. I bet someone enables this to work over data sooner or later. it being friday, and me being a drunk- i probably won't try it today. lol
I ONLY HAVE TRIED THIS ON CM RC 7.0.2 WITH NO PROBLEMS ON ANYTHING ELSE IDK IT WORKS FLAWLESS FOR ME JUST TRIED THE VIDEO CHAT AND ITS GREAT I DIDNT DO THIS ZIP HAZMATIC DID U CAN ASK HIM ON TWITTER
to my understanding this will only work on cm7
@Haxzamatic
thanks to G1-evolve for helping out with testing.
seems like it works flawlessly over wifi, even better IMO compared to tango/qik/fring. interface could use a little work though, but stability > style. lets hope the devs take this and enable this to be used over 3g/4g.
this came out much faster than expected. =D
did a test call from my phone to my gf's computer. the video of her to my phone was HORRIBLY delayed (like 15 seconds, ,maybe more. didn't count) and she could not see a video of me at all. instead she saw my google profile picture.
running CM7.0.2, stock kernel

I have no problems with Facebook and GingerDX. Works fine.
Fource Close apps!?
Hi,
I had problem with facebook app that didnt want to start. Now after full wipe that problem is solved. Now I try to open Navigon but it wont start! just the same problem like the fb app. Is that a bug in this version to work on or is it something else I have to do?

I just passed to v005 and it is just fine with everything...
fine with me though...
Confirmed working on GingerDX v005 and v006. I simply installed the FB app from the market and that was all.
Use Facebook Ver 1.60. Its work for me
plss try a full wipe to ur phone..mine is just working fine..
works fine, GDX 008.
notifications also work fine, i've installed the app on phone memory
If the facebook app crashes, use this from ADB or Terminal Emulator
rm -r /data/com.katana.facebook
alternatively just clear facebook's data.

Navigon doesn't work with any cm7. I've tried all roms. Can anyone confirm IT?
Sent from my X8 using XDA App
I initially had problems with the facebook app. After a full wipe the issues were resolved on GingerDX 0.13. As for Navigon that doesn't work for me either (Using CoPilot that works, Sygic doesn't work btw), but shouldn't you have your own thread for that question?
But you could try Friendcaster or FBabble.

Passion V12 as well. Only thing that comes to mind with why it isn't working is that I have Google 2-Step verification enabled and there may be bugs with that. Going to turn 2-Step off to help rule that out.

i had issues with 2-step verification as well on this device and my nook. i turned it off. its more trouble than its worth. i'm not stashing nuclear launch codes or my bank account number in my email anyway. plus i keep my passwords pretty convoluted anyway
I flashed over to ICSSGS ROM last night so can't give a clear answer if 2-Step verification was causing the crashes or not on Passion. FWIW, Chrome Beta works fine on this ROM with 2-Step enabled.

It's definitely annoying not to have flash on such an anticipated Google release, but most developers I talk to seem to agree that we should all just let Flash die off.

RIP Flash.
Thats what you think. There are a lot of webs with Flash. They do not want to spend money and time to implement HTML5.
