Hey Guys,
I flashed CWR 3.0 everything went smoothly.. downloaded the most recent nightly build for CM7 installed fine, and also downloaded the google apps package as well...
For some reason I never get the Gingerbread setup screen, or see any google apps (including the market) on reboot after I install them.
Am I missing something crucial?
Thanks,
Sizzmo
Been researching the problem all night, and no luck. It seems that the problem is widespread with CM7, as Ive seen multiple posts from people. Ive tried flashing different nightly's and using different gapps.zip files but nothing...
I feel like its a simple thing or something im missing, so any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Did you mount /system and /data in recovery before you flashed the gapps.zip?
Nevermind I got it working... stupid me flashed 2.5 CWM instead of 3.0... derp
Thanks for the reply though

Alright for some reason unknown to me i have a demon Evo that wants to be different from everyone else. When i first rooted i lost the paid market, and my market was running really slowly. I flashed multiple roms and even the latest OTA to no avail. I did the new root method and again i am still having issues, my phone doing some things different then other people have experienced.
For example, i just tried to flash the latest baked snacks rom, and it came up as,
Wrong Digest
com.market.apk (or whatever the markets true name is)
Is there anyone that can help out?
Would removing the market using adb and then flashing a rom change anything?
Any ideas to experiment would be greatly appreciated!
ok so /system/app is a read only file system so i cant just remove the apps anyways and try and replace them with a flash.
Any ideas?
Also just flashed a 2.2 rom to see if that would change anything and again i have no paid app sections in the market.
i have no clue what the problem is but are you wiping before you flash
Of course im wiping haha. Ive wiped everything you possibly can wipe. Ive deleted the entire /system/app folder before flashing. Ive flashed roms of 2.2 and 2.1, ive ran RUU's. I have no friggin clue what steps to take
but you have tried doing the data,cache,dalvik from the recovery menu? Sorry if that's what you meant but I am a little confused by the wiping system/app part you wrote
Yeah i have. Ive wiped everything.
Hmm. Have you tried a different recovery to make sure its not that? Sorry I don't have any more tips to give you, it just seems like its a strange problem to have across multiple roms. Just kinda makes me think something isn't clearing correctly. Best of luck, I'm sure you will get it figured out
yeah i just wish there was someone who had the key. Ive had both clockwork and Amon's recovery. I have no idea what it could be and i cant believe nobody else has experienced this.
yeah, sorry I couldn't offer a better answer. I tried doing a search but could not find anything relevant
I am sure you will figure it out though!
For two months I have tried to install Cm6 and currently shadow rom. Every time after install from clockwork or nandroid I get the same bootloop splash htc screen. I have installed other roms with no problem....there must be a common issue with cm6 & shadowrom. I have wiped full, cache, davlik and even formated system cache etc. I have a 2.x radio kouche kernel and newest hboot. I've tried changing sd cards etc. No avail......any suggestions would be appreciated.

I would try wiping dalvik/cache before the flash, flashing, then wiping dalvik/cache again before the first boot of the new rom. I would also suggest trying kings kernel or koush's test kernel by flashing them from cwm recovery directly after the rom.
Aside from that, I could only guess that you might have a corrupt area preventing a full install of your rom/kernel which isn't too uncommon but which I have no experience with. I've heard there are ways to get around this by building the kernel manually or by restoring it from another nandroid (say king's on a ruby nandroid? though I'd venture to guess Ruby would have the same problem), but it seems fairly difficult.
I'm not a developer, but I hope my suggestions can hope point you in the right direction. I'm using the latest nightlies of CM6 and they are awesome. I hope you get the chance to try it.
Thanks jaguox for such a quick reply. So I tried this.method on both cm6 and shadowrom. Wiped full wiped cache wiped davlik. Installed rom and gapp and kernel. Tried koush and kingkernal....wiped davlik...cm6 boot loop.....shadowrom brings me to android touch screen initial setup. I try to touch screen but my phone dosnt respond....screen freeze. Sussesful installs I've had are sky raider virtuous most.sense roms...the only froyo I have that works is ruby...my fav right now. I would love to have cm 6....I've posted on this forum a few times as well as cyanogen forum. I hope im not the only one with this.issue.......

Here are some more ways to potentially solve your problem. Again, I am not a developer so I am just mentioning a few solutions that might work, I am not entirely sure what is wrong with your device. I'm just trying to help you hammer away from all sides.
Are you wiping data manually too? People have noted success before where they had none before by wiping data/dalvik/cache twice before flash and once after. Not sure why this would solve anything but it is worth a try.
Try installing cyanogen without GApps (I do this anyways with the nightlies since it seems to be corrupt for some reason) and then installing them later if it boots correctly.
I use the Paid rom manager for the ease of use for nightlies, but here is a web link to the nightlies which you can try if you don't have paid: http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=inc They are more up to date and stable at this point than 6.0.2 was (for me at least). I am using build 100 and have tried the packaged in kernel, koush test 6, and adrynalyne's, and all work well.
Adrynalyne has another kernel for AOSP roms you can try: http://adrynalyne.us/?p=79
You can also try using the phone to reformat one of your SD cards just to eliminate that potential pitfall, though I don't think you would be getting that far anyways if it was not formatted correctly (Menu>Settings>SD card). This will wipe any data currently on your SD card.
Now, I would wait for someone else to provide confirmation that this should work since I haven't done it personally, but you could also try restoring boot.img from a Ruby Nandroid with KK1/2 installed (Install Ruby, install KK, make nandroid backup, install CM6 w/o Gapps, nandroid>advanced restore>select ruby nandroid>Restore boot). This should restore a working AOSP kernel for CM6/shadow to use however I am unaware if there are any other consequences. I also suggest KK or adrynalyne since I do not know what Ruby uses and KK and adrynalyne have both worked for me on CM6. The reason I think the kernel is not installing correctly is because your touchscreen is not working and AOSP roms use a different driver than sense roms for it. I could be completely off base however.
Also, out of curiosity, which radio version exactly are you using?
Hi Jaguox,
Thanks again for the help here is what I tried. I do own the market app ClockworkMod Revovery v2.5.0.5/rom manager. I came from Ruby 1.1.1 with the newest kouch Kernal and radio 2.15.00.07.28. I then wiped data, cache and dalvik twice. I then installed cm nightley 96&98/shadowrom (two seperate installs of course for each rom). I then installed Adrynalyne/Kingkernal kernals and wiped dalvik cache once more. I did not install gapps and let the rom boot. Interesting enough the roms bypassed the intial setup and booted to the home screen. But both roms with both kernals still would not let me have touch access to the screen. So I could see the roms but I couldnt touch them...aaaahhhhhhh the irony. I also tried a reformatted sd card.....same outcome. One time out of the hundred I have tried in the past two months allowed me to initiate my account in a cm nightly and access apps. I rebooted after a fix permission and got a boot loop. That was the farthest I have ever made it. Its strange that both these two roms that share the same dna give my phone the same effect. I appreciate anyones help in solving this mystery.
Thanks in advance!

Same issue on my Dinc. I have.wiped, rewiped and.still.the same out come on 2.1. I did not have this issue when I installed the first release of SR a while back. I have no other issues with other ROM's. Help?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
So shadow rom first release woked for you? There must be some common denominater for why our phones cannot take certain aosp roms? Ruby works but not cm6 or shadow......very strange.
So I think shadow rom found the fix to the issue I was having....hopefully this thread helps anyone in the same vote as me.

Ok so i flashed CyanogenMod7.0.0-RC4 and i LOVED it... BUT the wifi sent it into a boot loop. Is there any STABLE CM **Gingerbread** ROMS for the G2?
Just pull battery out, place it back, boot and the wi-fi problem should be solved. It's a common small problem.
And why doesnt CM come with the market? i installed market but when i go into it it takes me to the home screen =/
Google Apps don't come pre-installed with CM due to Google terms of rules. Flash the apps with recovery. You can find the Google app pack on the CM 7.0 forums.
E: By the way, alot of your problems can be solved by just searching the forums, the problems you've encountered are pretty basic and have already been answered in previous threads.
I apologize. Just sometimes its easier to get a fast reply than go searching. Sometimes i dont knwo whati should be looking for =/
But thank you for your help
Sure, no problem! If you're still having the problem with the market: try re-flashing CM, and clear dalvik cache.
Hi,
I am currently running Android Revolution HD 5.1.7 on my DHD
I was just wondering with the new 6.1.1 version out, to upgrade to it,
do I simply download the file and just flash that to the device or must I first wipe my device? Or some other way?
Thanks for any help!
P.s Really sorry if this has already been asked but I had a quick search and couldn't see anything to this specific situation!
Back up all your data then flash the superwipe script, then flash the ROM, restore data

Thanks alot,
Also once I have flashed the rom to the phone,
Can I remove the file from my SD Card to free up some space?
Its something I have been unsure about from the first time I flashed my phone,
But I should imagine you can??
**UPDATE**
I have succesfully installed Android Revolution HD 6.1.1
But I am getting an awful lot of Force Closes now,
1 in particularly when i try to go on "People" (contacts) it instantly force closes!
Another is SuperUser, and there are a few more than insantly FC as soon as I try to Open them!

1. You can but I would recommend that you keep a copy of a stable ROM on your sd card just in case you have to reinstall for some reason.
2. It seems like the ROM is corrupted.
Did you superwipe before you installed the ROM?
If you have:Check the md5 checksum of the rom you downloaded. It should be the same as the one posted under the ROM download link in the ARHD thread. If its the same you can try superwiping and reinstalling the rom.
If you havent: Download the superwipe script from the first page in the ARHD thread, superwipe and reinstall the ROM.
Also make sure to backup your phone data before superwiping because everything will be lost. Also don't install any mods untill your device has completed the first boot after installing the ROM.
to be honest i had issues with arhd 6.1.1 when i flashed it too. not the same as yours but constant. not everybody seems to have them though and others say it has something to do with the overclock daemon. i believe there´s a patch for it though on the 6.1.1 developers thread.
i didnt bother though i just moved on to virtuous unity 2.39 and have had no problems, really smooth sense 3.0 rom. i´ve been planning to try out a non sense rom next but i really like this rom so i´ve been putting it off for a while now. i even put the beats audio patch on it a few days ago and i gotta say its pretty good even on stock htc headphones
planing to update to arhd6.1.1 too, but have ardh3.3 and clockwork 3.0.0.6. which clockwork is ok (mean which of the newest)?
I did use superwipe and i checked the md5 and it was all good!
I re-flashed the rom and now its ok
I have found out what was causing it!
It starts happening again every time I install google+ 2.0
The new version of the app that has recently been leaked on androidpolice
(Would include a link but im not allowed yet)
And the reason it did it straight from the start the first time is because, before
doing anything else, I restored all my app via Titanium Backup!
If anyone else has this issue or could try to install the app and see if it happens
to them or could figure out how to fix it, it would be great!
(Don't worry about installing it, uninstalling it stop the force closes straight away)
did you try just restoring just the app, but clean without the user data. i did that first time i flashed a rom and it caused all sorts of problems. so i reflashed and restored the apps one by one but just the app, no user data, and stopped having problems

Hi,
My first post
Any idea does this superwiper clean the radio as well? Does the order matter - first wipe, then rom and finally radio?

Superwipe doesn't effect the radio, and yeah that order you said is the way I went about it, but I also think you can do radio before rom too!
Update from 5.1 to 6.1
Maybe I haven't looked hard enough or maybe I am simply too tired...
Are there any specific steps from updating ARHD from 5.1 to 6.1? I can't seem to find any info about it.
Also, flashing the 6.1 over the 5.1 will it reset the way my screens/widgets are set while on 5.1?
Thanks.

i did try clearing the cache data and and force stopping fix with a reboot but no go...also tried that and uninstalled the google play update and rebooted and also did all that then going into recovery mode and wiped the cache partition and dalvik cache but yet nothing either...

Did you flash the ext4 mod while having apps moved with apps to sd? If so that may be the issue.

i appreciate ur response...No i actually flashed the EXT4 mod before i did apps2sd...i guess i just uesd up all my internal storage this might be a real dumb question and i believe i know the answer but it doesnt hurt to ask but is there any way to get any more storage on the incredible? or is the EXT4 mod all there is out there???

I have been having the same problem on McTwist 1.1. I have flashed several times and within a few months, it always returns. I have tried VR Superwipe, CWM cleared eveything that is possible, have uninstalled the market, cleared cache, Dalvik etc. I have flashed another rom and flashed back, I have skipped backing up and restoring and started from scratch. McTwist has the EXT4 MOD already, but I have tried flashing it again anyway. I have used apps2sd, but I hate the fact that I have over half my app storage space still free (like 400 of 748MB).
So far I have not found a single thing to get rid of it permanently. I am thinking of flashing back to stock with an RUU, then regaining root (I am s-OFF) and trying again. I like this phone a lot and now that Verizon will kick me off my Alltel plan if I upgrade, I am hesitant to get something newer (the newer phones suck right now anyway) It sucks not having any market apps update.:crying:
