Root Need a Little Help Here......

[HarleyChick]

Okay, so as I said in another thread, I flashed Froyo onto my eMMC today. And while it appeared to go really well, I have a big problem: the market will not let me download anything. I just keep getting a "download unsuccessful" message.

I have tried clearing the market cache and wiping the market data. It didn't work. I tried to reboot into recover, wipe the cache and reload my previous ROM, but nothing happened, so I assume I'm doing it wrong.

Is there anything I can do other than go all the way back to a stock NC and start all over again with updating and rooting? And if so, what is the best method to do so?

Not sure why its doing that, but seems a few people have reported the same thing in the eMMC Customized Nookie Froyo ROM.

After clearing Market cache, and force closing Market, go to Google Services Framework and clear data, then force stop. Reboot into recovery, wipe cache, then Dalvik cache which is under Advanced. then reboot.

Thats the process for Froyo to allow protected apps to show in the Market, but may help your situation. You could always try to find a Market .apk file on Google and replace the current one, see if that helps as well.

To reload your previous backup:

Boot into Recovery
Go to Backup and Restore
Restore
Click through until you find your restore file
Confirm Restore

It may or may not be needed, but its reccomended to wipe data, cache, and Dalvik before you restore.

Stinky, thanks so much for trying to help me! I have one question though: when you say click through until I find my restore file, how will I know which one that is? I have a number of files on my sd card, and none of them say "restore".

 

[stinky]

the actual file name will most likely be a date time format like 03152011-0543..

When you click on restore it either takes you to a folder that you click through, or a list of Backups, yours will be the one that coresponds to the date you made it. Once you click it, it will restore.

Tip of the pros, always rename your backups so you know which is which down the road.

On the SD card itself, I believe off hand its under the folder clockworkmod/backups/ something like that.

Hope that helps.

OMG! OMG! OMG! You are SO my hero right now! It worked! I have the market, and everything is downloading - super fast, I might add - and seems to be working perfectly.

Thank you so much! I was going absolutely crazy until you came along! You're the best!

(Sorry about all the exclamation points, but I'm just so happy! )

any tricks to it?

From what I knwo, you have to get the ext4 compatible CWR and burn it to an SD card, then place the latest CM7.zip on the card and flash it that way?

what are the steps after you flash it? do you have to flash google apps (gapps?) and do other weird steps to get wifi, youtube working?

That process is correct.

After that you may flash GApps if thats your thing (It should be, why would you not want the Market?)

WIFI is more stable than Froyo. The only thing I am missing in CM7 is full on video. But I havent missed it, and its making progress.

Once you flash CM7 you can install a new internal CWM, so that you can flash updates super easy.

what would I wipe first? cache partition, dalvik...and???? data and system?

also, what DOESN'T work in CM7? youtube works you say, does bluetooth?

and by video, what do you mean video doesn't work? like uploading family vids or flash? or??

Thats the install instructions.

The video thing is a DSP issue. It wont natively play video (well now it does but its at a slow FPS max) You can get an app like Rockplayer that people have reported on as wroking very well for downloaded movies.

Flash IIRC is reported as working but still rough, Youtube works, no HD yet though. I havent ru into anything yet that I am missing from CM7. Bluetooth is working.

Hmmmm...I think I'll pass for now. Then again, last time I said that, I was going to stay will 2.1 for a while. That lasted for all of what, a week, I think? Just proves that I can't leave well enough alone......

Still, glad I did it. Even though I haven't heard from them, I think UB and bg would be proud.....

This is the whole reason I just flashed Froyo. One file, that's it. Thats all I had to download and I have it all.

That's not to say I'm not going to try CM7 some day - I mean, come on, its me - but for my first "flash" experience, Nookie Froyo was pretty easy (yes, I used that four letter word!) in comparison.

Just sayin'.......
