I read that you said to flash the ROM, reboot, Flash the gapps, and then reboot. I did that but my Market is being finicky. I tried to open it and it just sits there and loops. :(

that sounds like the trouble i had when i flashed it at the same time. :mad: did you wipe data,cache,and dalvik? if not,try that and see what happens.

since you did it like me and are having issues,maybe try flashing them at the same time and see what happens?

i assume youre using the 20110307 gapps from the thread?

edit: did you delete the android_secure folder?

if not,try that.

-boot to recovery.
-toggle usb and plug into pc
-delete android-secure folder
-toggle usb off
-wipe everything and reflash :)

I'm using the 3/7 gapps I already had from GSB. Is this something different? I did do all 3 wipes. I'll try flashing them together before rebooting.

it should be the same. i downloaded it from the thread and renamed it so i could keep it seperate when i was having prollems. if all else fails it certainly wont hurt to redownload it and use the one from the thread.

how bout android_secure? did you delete him?

BC and i both flashed them seperate. doogald i believe flashed them together... unsure about metlcat. looking fwd to hearing if that works or not :)

It didn't work to flash them together. :( Same prob with Market only. I did delete the Android Secure folder before wiping and flashing.. so that's not it. Hmmm... Going to restore GSB and try to play with Condemned some more tomorrow! :)

I flashed them together. The first time I tried to open the market it closed right away, but that was during the initial syncing. Since then I haven't had a problem. I didn't delete the android_secure coming from GSB, but I did format my sdcard before I flashed GSB 2.9 because it kept telling me it was full even thought there were only 2 gigs of non hidden files on there. Something wasn't working right.

I also flashed c2c right after flashing gapps.

I was talking bout condemned. I'm starting to get some laggyness. With different things.

95% of the time it runs like a charm. Occasionally there's hesitation when waking up or when going to the app drawer. So I bumped it up from stock settings and went to 480/710 with smartass governor.
 
yeah i thot about bumping up my min,but without the radio running,and the slow sleep speed,ive been up 3 days,10 hours,and 40 minutes on this charge :eek: i can deal with a lil bit of wakeup lag :D

another thing i think is helping is i froze beutiful widgets. ive just been using the stock android news and weather widgets. maybe the eris just cant handle BW :(

maybe give that a shot if youre still running it.

That is not how I did it.

This was my procedure:

- copy CM7 and gapps to SD
- restart in Recovery
- attach by USB and go to USB-MS menu
- from the computer, I deleted the .android_secure folder on the SD
- unmounted SD from computer and pressed trackball
- wipe data/factory
- wipe Dalvik
- flash Condemned CM7
- flash gapps
- restart

I've determined that the weird slowdowns I've been having were not caused by GSB since I had the same thing happen today. I guess my next step is go try uninstalling all of my apps one at a time to see if any of them are causing it.

My battery life has been really good thus far with this ROM. I did have some weird readings today, but that was during the slowdown problem. I'm about to switch LauncherPro for ADW. I'll update with how it performs in a bit.

Edit: CS, I think this app would be a nice addition to this ROM: Android Quick App: Slayer | Android Central I don't know for sure that you're a metal head, but there are indications.

Here's a strange thing about that app... Tazz texted me about it around the same time you posted this... Maybe that's a sign? ;)

This is how I would suggest flashing the Rom. I've tried a few different things as I was doing the updates and I was doing some testing for Tazz the other day and instead of doing a restore I decided to do a fresh install just to make sure everything worked as it should and this was the exact same process I used. I would only go through the boot rom and reboot then flash gapps if your market for some reason gives you bootloops like people were getting in the first release or 2. :)

Is it just my phone or is the trackball dimly lit when the phone is on. Maybe it's always been that way and I never noticed.

I've thought the same thing at times before but what I noticed is that in certain lighting it seems like it gives the illusion that the trackball is glowing. I don't think it is though... try in a drak room or something and see if you still see it. I haven't noticed anything odd with mine anyway. :p

thats how i normally flash roms :mad: i was only doing the rom/boot/gapps method cause i was having market issues. IIRC version 3 was the last i tried to do the "normal" way,and it still gave me prollems,so ive just accepted that thats the way ill have to do it. thats how ive been doing the "updates" too :D

any ideas why KPG is havin a hard time? shes now tried it both ways :eek:

on the trackball issue,i just checked mine... its not on at all :eek: i dont know how long its been that way,i never pay any attention to it,lol. eff you,cute little trackball :p

I'm not sure :confused: She said she's doing a full wipe and deleted android secure and I saw she tried both options for flashing.. I might suggest redownloading the Rom.. The gapps from the other threads are the same as mine so if she had one that was working on GSB it's not gapps.. Maybe redownload the rom and check the md5 on it to make sure it's right and then full wipe and flash... she might be able to do it without deleting android secure as well .. the biggest thing with that is when coming from 2.1 or 2.2.. OR.... is she blonde maybe :eek::p lol. Just kidding.. Had to throw something smart ass in there...:)
