he guys,
i have a problem with my market, when i use my market it freezes and i have to pull the battery every time again. is there a solution for this?
would installing an older version of the market solve this? i just flashed the dGB rom and it gives me this problem.

I thought dGB uses a pretty old market by default. What version have you got?

don't know it's for a friend. i'll know tomorrow. but it is fine with my phone but it keeps hanging on his phone. is there anyone that has the same problem with dGB. it is google play btw. what version i got to find out. please let me know what you think.
I've not heard of this problem with dGB. I'm running play store 3.7.15 with no problems (which is the latest).
But dGB doesn't come with Google Play, but rather with the old market. So if they reflashed the ROM it would revert to that, and that should work. I don't know whether it would then update to Play - dGB doesn't seem to include the market updater (once you have Play Store it seems to update without, but I think you might have to manually update from Market to Play Store if there is no market updater).

well the problem is only with the phone of my friend, mine is fine. but when i would like to install some apps of the market it freezes after a few moments. now mine says it is 1.27 mb in total size while his is 1.21 mb. and it is the same rom and as you said it would not update due to the lack of the updater. so where does this differants come from? anyway......
could i try uninstalling the market and than install the google play store app manually? where can i find a good download for google play store?
Am on TapaTalk so can't easily find links. Stuff from xda is generally safe. Backup before installing.
Size difference is probably just data. Have they tried clearing data for the market app?

it was a problem with the 3g network.... it is to slow to make big downloads and therefor it freezes. doesn't matter anymore, he says he will only download apps on wifi, which works great.
jet i have another problem with his phone....
when i flashed the rom on the phone it works great, but when i make a backup with nandroid and than flash on of the 2 hboots and than restore the nandroid it will freeze on the bootscreen... i have to flash the stock hboot back on it and restore the nandroid to get it working again.
he really would like to get ony of the hboots on there to get more internal storage, so if anybody knows a solution then please help me.
btw it worked fine with my phone. so it sould work but it doesn't.
that seems most likely imoHi Guys, I think I found a glitch which is driving me nuts.
In the msgs, I would sms someone in a poor signal area and it would fail possibly after some retrys. I get a red triangle on the side to tell me it has failed.
When I get back into signal, I long press the failed to send messages and cannot find a retry sending button. I looked every where for a retry to send button and it cannot be found.
I hoped it will resend automatically but its still with the red triangle.
Proposed solution:
Add retry button to message options long press menu
Add menu button, retry to send ALL failed messages
PS. Brilliant fast small rom, nice interface, like a breath of fresh air for my old HTC Desire. Thankyou kind sir for your support

Have you seen this elsewhere in other SMS apps? The idea with dGB is that the ROM has minimal sized system apps so you can download your preferred alternatives.
Personally I long press then >Copy Message Text. Long press >Delete Message. Then Long press new message text area >Paste then send.

i tried it and it said that i'm using 66.72 mb. i find this weird because i only flashed the rom and nothing more than that. does anyone know what is wrong?

how do you define "format system". is this wiping dalvik cache, cache and user info? or is there anything else i sould do for that?
btw it keeps freezing all the time now. what could cause this?
Hi guys
After some advice, for some reason which i cannot work out i get random freezes which mean i have to pull the battery.
It then gets stuck in a boot loop on the andoid screen and need to pull battery again leave the phone for 10mins or so then reboot. This can happen 2 or more times before it boots.
I also get freeze issues if i try to use google navigation app and the phone freezes and i go through a similar routine to reboot.
I an running the 65mb h boot and have flashed the redux dalvik to sd along with some apps just for good measure.
One strange point is that the phone always freeze if it has been plugged into the car charger. The charge light stays on but phone wont respond.
Any ideas / solutions would be welcomed.
I have tried a complete wipe and reflashing the rom but still get thr same issues.
Help please if you can

No, he means format the system partition (to ensure there's nothing on there), then reflash the ROM. Nandroid first, of course.
If it still freezes after that then we'll worry about that one.
@Paul: do these freezes happen instantly when you've been doing these things (Maps, car charger, etc) or after you've been using them for a while? In the latter case, what does it say on the hboot screen - specifically the PVT version? If it's extended use and a PVT1 device it could be a heating issue.
Does it still happen with an unmodified ROM (i.e. without your additions)?

The pattern seems to be as follows
Charge the phone overnight. (Its my alarm clock) then a bit of facebook etc once i am up in the morning and all seems fine for 30mins.
Drive to work about 45mins pick up the phone at the office and it freezes (it has not been plugged into car charger) and need to remove battery to get it to boot.
If i use maps it sometimes works fine but then stops mid journey abdd sometimes just freeze straight away.
The PVT is 4. And i had thought about overheating but it never seems that hot. Sometimes warm when using maps etc.
To remove dalvik to sd is it ok just to reflash the rom or do i need to wipe data or just dalvik data
Thanks for your jelp

maybe a stupid question but how do you format the system partition?
Should be able to do it from recovery.
Reflashing the ROM will remove the script. Probably best to wipe dalvik first (I think it would rebuild anyway, but may as well clear it off the ext partition).
But if I'm right and the dalvik to ext patch is actually a full a2sd script (and I don't think it will do anything otherwise) you've probably got all of your apps on ext as well. In which case unfortunately a full wipe is probably the best thing to do.
Trouble is, it's quite likely that this isn't the cause of the problem - I just suggested it as a thing to check since it's a modification to the ROM, and so one way your setup differs from other users. Did the problem start when you installed the ROM, or some time after?
Well ive wiped all data and spent most of the day setting the phone back up (in between working) and so far so good
Had to move most apps to sd as filled the memory with all the kids games and so far so good. No random freezing or anything yet tomorrow will be the test.
Ive not reflashed the dalvik script so will see how it goes.
The problem only started after i had been using the rom for a while but will see how it goes and report any issues that arise for further advice
Thanks for your help
