Hi,
Using MDA III, with Tom-Oops-Black-v1.0-WWE ROM, and the TT_Nav_7.450.9028_black.cab file. When I click the CAB, and choose the install location, the message Installing TT_Nav_7.450.9028_black.cab... remains on screen for ever, with no change in the progress bar.
I have tried soft and hard resets, with the same issue. Other CAB files install ok.
I have tried several TomTom7 CABS
Please advise if you have seen this, and a possible fix?
You could try installing tomtom to your sd card using another rom. Then putting oops back on. Tomtom runs straight of my sd card i installed it once and every hard reset or new rom i just need to make a shortcut.
worth a try
cool, i'll try that via my other device which works, thanks. I wasn't sure if it needed registry or windows system changes.
try format your sd card, copy totmtom.cab file and run it. Always works for me
Thanks people
Zetsumei,
Thanks, I just copied the install form the other working device, and pasted onto the other devices SD Card, works perfectly.
Freo73,
Good advice, I was going to do that when I got home, because I do not have the micro SD adaptor. I did copy the CAB file to internal memory, and the install also hung there...
For now, this issue is resolved.
Hey Everyone,
Last night all my programs that Installed on my storage cards just stopped working. I had this happen to me before but all I had to do is restart the phone or just pull the microsd out and put it back in. But this time isn't the case. The message I am getting is " The file "what ever program i am opening" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persist, try reinstalling or restoring this file." I have tried to reinstall the programs but it just says unsuccessful. Or when I install a program it would open until I soft rest and the program wont work again. I looked in my storage cards program files and there aren't any files in the folder.
Anyone have any ideas?

Have you tried saving everything from your SD card and then reformatting the card and reinstall the programs?

Is there an "application data" folder at the root of your storage card? Anything in there now? It has identical function to the one on your phone in the /Windows folder, just for apps installed on the card. If that's empty too, you can try backing up the card and reformatting, but it's sounding like your SD card is corrupt. This can happen if you accidentally unplug the USB cable from the phone when it's in the middle of a write cycle with the card.

Hmmm, I thought google maps was preloaded on my (tmo US) stock 6.1 rom, but since I see it in my "remove programs" list, I guess I must have installed it when I first got the phone back in Nov.
Yeah, it's sounding like a hard reset is in your immediate future, let us know if that clears it up for you

oh its been working. google had nothing to do with it. i guess it was when i switched batteries and charged it. i didnt even plug it into my computer at all so i guess when i pulled the batter it corrupted the microsd some how
hey, op. It could be that the storage card folder somehow got renamed. That would cause all those links to be invalid. Check to see if the applications run if you click on the executables stored on the sd card.
This happens to me, but it's because the card is being used. So if this happens to you it probably only happens when you have it plugged in for Sync or File transfer. So just soft reset it any time you're done conecting it to the CPU
Hi there,
For the past couple of days, I've been getting "installation unsuccessful" error messages whenever I download anything from the Market. The apps are downloaded, and Android tries to install them but fails every time. I've gotten successful installations on one or two occasions, though, seemingly at random.
I have 22MB of internal storage left, and I used to be able to install apps with only 10MB, so that's not the cause. And I have around 2GB on my SD card. Funny thing is, I can't even install some .APKs of beta apps that I know should work, because I've installed them before. I thought the issue was solely related to the Market, but the Market isn't involved when installing apps from "unknown sources", or is it?
Does anyone have any suggestions besides doing a hardreset? Anyone experiencing similar issues?
Cheers
I had the same issue with my Desire. After i searched on the internet, i found a lot irellevant sollutions to this issue.
What i did? I did a backup of my SD card, format SD, restore settings to default and that it.
It was a hard decision but i couldn't find any other solution. After that, everything goes normaly, even today!
Thanks for the reply! I still hope I don't have to do a hardreset, but if nothing else works, I guess I have to go ahead and wipe that thing.
Have you tried the fix_permissions script? You can run this from the Amon Ra recovery or go to the Market and download ROM Manager. It's under the Utilities section of ROM Manager
I guess that's only for rooted devices?
OK, I give up. If no one has a solution to this, I'll just hardreset the darn thing
OK, I give up. If no one has a solution to this, I'll just hardreset the darn thing.
Is there a backup tool that can restore all your apps in a way that the Market will recognize them under "Downloads"? I restored apps from a backup once, but that was pretty pointless since I no longer could enjoy updates through the Market without having to re-download every single app.
Titanium Backup has a "Market Doctor" to fix your Market links, but you need to be rooted.
If you aren't, I'd suggest syncing with AppBrain, which at least means you won't need to search for all your apps on the Market again.
Regards,
Dave

Have you tried connecting your phone to pc in disk drive mode and doing a scandisk of SD card.
I had the same problem (card was mounted as read-only)
After I done scandisk it found and fixed the problem.

No, I had not tried that since the SD card appeared to be working. I used to get quite a few "SD card damaged" messages until I let Android format the card. I tried Scandisk now but it didn't take care of the Market issue unfortunately. Thanks anyway
But it does indeed seem like the SD card somehow is to blame. Those few apps that I actually have been able to install have been installed to the internal storage.
I think this problem started when I for some reason decided to clear the Market's cache and data. Thing is, I have set Android to install apps to the SD card by default (adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2) and that might have something to do with it as well, although it worked fine for three weeks.
I got this when I installed the unofficial OTA update for 2.2. Only fix was to try another custom rom.
Have you tried to go into manage applications and then clear all data for the market app ? This has solved some similar problems for me in the past.
Yes, I cleared the Market's cache and data, and I actually did that before the issue started as well. I just hope a hardreset will fix it all, going to erase everything later today
For the record, I had to not only perform a hardreset, but delete the .android_secure folder on my memory card where apps are stored to get the Market working again. I could probably just have deleted the .androd_secure folder, but then I would have lost all apps installed to the SD anyway
Works like a charm now.

But erasing that folder removed all the apps you had installed on your memory card, right?

Hello Everyone!
I just rooted using UnRevoked 3.0. I was installing apps on to sd card and suddenly (while installing free spades from Market) the phone just sat there at "Installing spades" and never completed. Even worse now NOTHING installs. Not even the OTA Sprint voice mail upgrade app. What I did notice is that I can't format the SD card, the option button is grayed out. When I try to unmount the card I get this error:
"Sorry! Activity SD & phone storage (in Application Settings) is not responding."
I have the option to FC or wait and if I try and wait, the message just loops. Is there ANYTHING ANYONE can tell me about this. Please, please help!!!!
Try restarting the phone and see if that helps.
restarting doesn't work, re-running Unrevoked doesn't work. I don't know what else to do. Am I just app-less now?
It happens. Sometimes it takes a few hours to go back to normal, at least in my experience. Is it working for you yet?

I encountered a problem similar to this with my Evo. Basically the card stopped working and said I need to format it, but then it wouldn't let me actually format it. I contacted HTC and apparently they had a "bad batch" of the cards and they'll replace it for free, when they have some in stock. My advice would be to contact HTC or Sprint.
Not working yet. But one thing I forgot about is that after I rooted it I also installed "Choose install" from the Market and set the default to the storage card. I wonder if I should try and unroot my phone. I'm stuck there to because if I understand things right I would have to access my sd card to load a new zip file on it in order to unroot. My pc will no longer let me browse my device.

You will need access to an SD card to unroot. My advice would be to either buy another one or just borrow a friend's or something. Why do you want to unroot anyways?

I don't really want to, I just thought I would have to do that to try and go back to "stock" or if I'm using the word right, back to the way it was when I got it. I thought it might be my last resort to fixing it. I would still re-root again so I can try and figure out how to get rid of all of sprints bloatware.
Just an update - I bought me a new sd card from buy.com, a 16 gb for about $30. It fixed the problem for a little bit. I started installing my apps, got a good amount of them on there and it happened again! I'm starting to wonder if you just can't install very many apps for this phone or by some odd coincidence I got a 2nd bad storage card????. Weird. I might start a new thread for this but thanks for all you who participated. You rock!
when it's stuck on install can you go to your manage applications option in settings and see if they're all stuck on 'computing' too?
Because this sounds all too familiar.

I have the same issue (seems to have started after I started using modinstallocation). About one in ten times I'm able to get my sd card apps back after battery pulls and multiple reboots, but not this time. When I go to manage apps, all the SD card apps are 'computing'.

Hi
I'm not a total iGO noob and been using it for a few years on HTC HD2 but now have a really annoying problem.
Just got a HTC One M8 (European) and rooted immediately plus gave SD card write access.
First thing I did was install iGO the usual way and add all the content.
When I'm in default 3D mode, the screen starts 'blinking' after a while. The route and the roads start to disappear and the terrain starts taking over the screen, so that for example it will be all green, the same as the fields. The whole screen starts flashing. This is happening on default scheme/skin or any other HD compatible skin. Meanwhile, the voice and the directions are still all ok.
A couple of times I've got a error message saying "memory is low, use different route options", but that's only a couple of times. Remember, this is a phone with bags of memory and no other apps.
I have tried with the moveable thin apks that I can move to SD with all the content, and have tried every other version of iGO apk with all the iGO folders on the internal memory.
I believe the data.zip is I have is a 1920x1080 HD file and I have tried starting with and without Branding files.
I have tried lots of different sys.txt combinations.
Obviously I delete the Save folder every time.
Please, anyone...HELP!

The SD write problem is I think resolved for me by rooting and flashing a different kernel - I can't remember the thread I got this from, but will post when I find it.
So iGO works now, but the Lesscro Themechanger isn't working now!
The slow display I had came from a memory setting I changed in the sys.txt, thanks to another member.

Nope, afraid not. Even rooting and using SDFix won't work alone. I tried changing the permissions on the R/W SD data but keeps defaulting on reboot. Flashing a different kernel is the best way as far as I know.
It's the Google / KitKat policy that's messed things up!
To fix the sd card issue you have to root.There is no other alternative.Kitkat implemented this issue.To fix it you have to change permissions in es file explorer to rw for all.Or you can flash kernel which disables read/write protection.The best kernel is elementalx kernel.Go give it a try! :laugh:

No, i'm talking about iGo is starting fine, but after a while screen starts blinking until it becomes black. Program is still running but screen is black.
I have eleted save folder, re-installed, tried all kinds of versions
iGo is on sd card, but i'm rooted and on a custom kernel with the sdcard read/write permission fixed.
Same configuration on my One X is running fine.

Well i think i might take you up on your offer. I can't get rid of the blinking problem.
I have tried everything. But i believe i have identified what creates the problem. If under iGO/content/map i have a lot of maps >3GB then i have the problem.
If i remove some maps then all is fine. It's definitely not my sdcard because i tried moving everything on internal memory and still get the same problem.
Any ideas that might help will be appreciated

It seems that although the above sys.txt file change made iGO run smooth as butter with just maps of one country, I added maps for all of Europe and it keeps freezing. Looks like I'll just have to add maps in whatever country I'm in!
