To make this short, I just flashed cyanogenmod 6 and forgot to install the Google apps package and now that I tried to install it afterwards, with RA recovery, it doesn't pick it up and I'm left without any of my Google apps and rom manager gives me an error message when I try to switch to clockwork and I'm stuck and can't find what to do. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated

Did you happen to notice when you open rom manager when you scroll down the screen it says FIX PERMISSION ISSUES? lol Try there first then report back of course reboot then try
Yes.
Did that to no avail...
I should have mentioned that...
I am going to just to right to manually installing a ROM and see if that works..then install the Rom Manager and go from there.
I had this issue and had to manually flash another ROM (I chose Fresh 0.3) before it would work. Now it works regardless of which rom I have installed.

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to q&a

I doubt *flashing* clockwork would cause force closes. But you can always revert back to 2.5.0.1 or AmonRa and restore a backup. Check the "Legacy" area of ROM Manager.
I also had this problem as ROM manager kept informing me that a new version of clockwork mod was available. after "updgrading" I couldn't flash any new ROMs and got a truncated message that during the process that 3.0 series clockwork mod needed to have some files deleted due to changes with Gingerbread and something about google.... (sorry about the lack of good definition on this, but the text was truncated and I was freaking out at the time since I started getting stuck at the white HTC boot screen.) Eventually I was able to perform a recovery and finally flash back to clockwork 2.5 and everything is OK now.
Strangely, after doing this ROM Manager indicated that 2.5 CW was the current version... However, after a few hours I started getting the message to "upgrade" to 3.0 again. I'll just ignore that for now.
Does anyone know why 3.0 is not working for everyone?
I got this also, but i wasnt using CM...i was on a sense mod and was able to restore a different rom and went to the new amon-RA instead.
Maybe its something with CM specifically
It has to do with the scripts used in the update.zips. Most people are still using the olds version used in 1.5... Net said that he had to change it to the new scripts used in gingerbread which makes it not work with any updates or backups made prior. There is a topic on it in here where he explains it. He says to flash the 2.5 if it's not letting you update something.

They put up a new version of Clockworkmod recovery 2.6.0.1. This will work for all that had problems with the 3.0.XXX versions of the recovery. All the goodies of the 3.0XXX but with amend support so it will work with all roms.
All I can say is that Amon has never let me down. May want to check it out if you haven't already. Even their recent update was smooth as silk. No problems for me.
I had this happen to me too with a flash resulting in the white evo screen loop. I was able to flash to the amon ra 1.8 but I couldn't flash anything. So I upgarded to the new version of RA but am still not able to flash anything. I go into the white evo screen loop and then I have to pull the battery and nand a restore. Not sure what I need to do now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm very confused as to what happened, and feel like I'm only making things worse so decided to come here. I've been rooted for about 2 months now after using Unrevoked Forever, and until last week everything was fine.
Using Rom Manager I attempted to flash Salvage Mod coming from Cyanogen 6.1.2. After wiping Data/Cache, when going to open the Zip Clockwork told me that the Rom did not exist in my SD card?
I redownloaded and tried again several times with no luck. I tried downloading other ROMS through my computer and putting them directly on my card and now I'm getting an error saying the Zip files are "(bad)"
Flashed RA Recovery through Rom Manager, the same errors, and now flashing back to Clockwork won't work. Any ideas what the problem maybe? Any solutions would be greatly appreciated
Have you tried booting to recovery directly and flashing a rom? I personally use CWM 2.6 and prefer to do all the work myself through recovery instead of hoping RomManager gets it right.
Yes I've tried booting into Recovery myself, keep getting the error that the zip. is bad
I rooted my friends phone and installed hboot....S-Off along with ClockworkMod Recovery
he restarted his phone and now his market crashes and astro file manager..,and rom manager has dissapeard please help.. should he just full wip and install a new rom i dont want to brick hi device
What is your device?
You can try another rom, copy it to sd, make a wipe/ factory reset from the recovery menu and use also a full wipe tool - ext 3 or ext 4, depending to the rom you want install. After the wipe you have to install the rom, because all data have been deleted from the device.
The best is, to post this question in the thread of your used rom.
thank you for the reply no rom has been used yet this is still the stock rom on the DHD.... after installing hboot and S-off we installed clockwork which worked fine then we restarted in recovery to see if it work and again fine so we restarted the phone and rom manager had dissapeard... we tried to download it fromthe marketand it said insufficient storage memeory... and every since it just crashes as well as the astro and downloads are crashing
Perhaps you didn't powered off fully? Try to do so and then start again.
Ok I've been reading and reading these threads and have found a lot of great info. Right now my phone is useless so I guess I'm asking for a little more specific info for my current situtation. I used mskip's toolkit to root my phone then followed wwjoshdew's video on how to use goomanager to flash CyanogenMod 10.1.2. Everything seemed to be going fine when I got the spinning blue circle screen then came the "Unfortunately, setup wizard has stopped" and "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped". Over and over and over. I can get to download mode and recovery mode but not sure what my next coarse of action should be. This is on an AT&T galaxy s3 originally running 4.1.1. Thanks in advance to any and all help....
I wouldn't use goo manager to flash anything!! U should have flashed straight from recovery, be it cwm or twrp. Did u perform a nandroid backup before u flashed cyan? If so, I would wipe, factory data reset, and install your backup.
Have you tried reflashing Google Apps?
Reboot to recovery, clear cache/dalvik, reflash GApps, clear cache/dalvik again to be sure all is tidy.
Also be sure you have the correct version of GApps; that has messed me up at least once.
Other than that you can always retry the whole process i.e. CM and Apps
Thanks for the replies. I'll try and figure that stuff out. Only reason I've gotten this far was because I was following the toolkit prompts and did the steps in the video as he did them. This is the first time I've tried anything except updating to JB so...
Well, I can't say I've made any progress. I googled correct gapps for cm 10.1.2 and downloaded it but it's like a big collection of stuff that odin won't put in the PDA file spot. I'm not even sure if its the right one. I'm so lost right now. I see all these cwm and twrp recovery files in the toolkit files but not sure if they would help me or not. I know this is fixable since I can still get into recovery and download mode. At this point I would even just go back to stock at least that way I could get rooted again through the toolkit. I'm guess I'm such a noob that I need step by step. I feel like my right arm is missing not having a phone...
Ok I have 2 different versions of gapps that claim to be the right one. I would love to try flashing them to try them out but odin doesn't see them. What am I doing wrong?
Which recovery do u have installed on your phone?
For one dont use odin to flash any custom roms, first download the latest cyanogen mod and gapps, if you need the latest gapps you can get them here. Next you are going to want to boot to recovery and do a factory reset/full wipe then wipe cache/dalvik cache, next go to the top and select load zip from sd card, install cyanogen mod and gapps and reboot the phone.
Ok something different happened this time when I went into recovery. TWRP v2.3.3.1 showed up. I wiped the cache/Dalvik and did the factory reset from there. I have cm-10.1.2-d2att and gapps-jb-20130301-signed ready to copy somewhere. I opened the internal card and saw 8 or so icons that said local disk. so I created a new folder and put the cm and gapps files in there. Does that sound right?
Well that seems to have worked. Rebooted and went through all the google stuff. I'll test everything and see how it works
Glad u got it working!! I usually download Roms straight from my phone, over WiFi of course, and place on the root of the SD card, not in a folder, and flash from there...
