So I flashed my Nightly 31 and worked fine... beside the GPS... anyways I then noticed that RC4 came out so I backed up the current rom and cleared cache and flashed RC4 over the Nightly all though Rom manager.
Well RC4 didn't fix the GPS for my Evo so I went back to the Nightly through recovery... Now when I was back in my Nightly I noticed that my contacts were all missing and it said to sync my acc. to upload them. so I opened Gmail to make sure my acc. was still on the phone but Gmail just opens and closes... no force close just pops up and then closes. so I uninstalled it and tried to open the market to reinstall but the market won't even open! the button is just non responsive... WTF
all my other gapps work maps...etc...
So I was just wondering if anyone has experienced this problem or if anyone knows a fix... Thanks in advance for any and all help!
Well since you cleared the cache, you may have to just re-flash the rom with the latest gapps. Normally shouldn't have to, but that should fix it.
Once again, you do not need to create a new thread for problems with CM7. There is a huge thread with thousands of people checking it daily. Post your question in there and it will get answered.
The only problem for me to post in the main forum is it takes forever to sift though the posts...
I would love to fix it without re-flashing the rom... I want to keep my txt and stuff and Titanium doesn't restore txt properly (at least its never worked for me)
which I find odd cuz Titanium is so useful and had work with backing up tons of game and stuff for me... IDK...

so i installed it like it said did the wipe then i did the titanium restore but every single app including titanium and rom manager all apps i had dont work they all force close! so i nandroided back... this happen to anyone else?
Yea his latest release is very buggy, I've had some very inconsistent results.
BTW starting another thread for one that is already open isn't the best idea.
Let's build a FAQ here to help everyone get the full benefits of this outstanding ROM! Let's not make this into a discussion thread so that it makes everyone's search alot easier to find what they need. I'm starting this since there is no FAQ or WIKI in the OP.
I'll start first...
MMS FIX: clear cache for your messaging app (whatever you are using) under Settings >>> Applications >>>Manage Applications>>All. Reboot into recovery, clear cache, Dalvik cache, and finally reboot.
I already posted this in the general forum but this seems more fitting. I installed CM7 on my Evo earlier today. Everything was amazing until I realized that the market app wouldn't work. Within a second of me tapping the icon I was back at my home screen. I wiped all my caches and wiped+ reinstalled CM7 but still no luck. I've reverted to a backup ROM for now until I can get this sorted out. Any help would be awesome!
Issue:
Bad Front Facing Camera Pics "Dark"
Bad Video on any setting other than "High"
Tried Different kernels:
SavageZen 0.0.3, 0.0.4, 0.0.5 no luck
Issue: Titanium Backup does not successfully install when I attempt to update from the market. Think it might have something to do with the GPS, but I don't know...
Attempting workarounds, anyone know if I can use Root Explorer to remove it and then re-download?
Hi Everyone
I would like to share what I have learned over the last week. First off. AWESOME ROM. Great job!!!
I discovered after many hours that a backup with Clockworkmod 3.0.0.5 does not restore on my HTC EVO no matter how I do the backup (i.e. manual or using Rom Manager). Good news is that if you revert back to 2.5.0.7 when you do the backup (either method), I have success on restore. I did the GPS fix by reverting back to a prior image and using the ##GPS….# method and then restored my CM7 and I am happy to report GPS is working.. I did flash Savaged-Zen-V0.0.5-CFS-HAVS-NoSBC-WiMAX-GB-Signed to see if that would improve things. I did them together so I can’t be totally positive which one fixed it. I believe the combination works though. 4G also works which is good news. I do not see signal strength or the icon in the notification but the Wi-Fi shows it is 4G connected (does not say sprint though). It also is consistent in range with what I had with the Sense ROM.
I also just confirmed that the Wi-fi hotspot also works on 3G (no 4G in my hood). I connected my laptop and ipad without problems and connected to the internet.
I tried everything flashing / restoring, etc to get Sprint Voicemail to work. I gave up and downloaded a program called YouMail. So far, I am happy with it (works very similar to the Sprint product and it is free).
Camera appears to also be working. I will do more tests.
I will keep you posted on the things I learn over the next few weeks. I hope some of you find it helpful.
I will answer questions if I can. Thanks for the great ROM. I look forward to updates.

Issue: No Disk Mode after flashing tast kernel.
Fix: Use savage kernel. Make sure its a Gb wimax kernel.
Issue: No WiFi tethering (bluetooth and wifi tethering both broken). I won't work in 3 or 4g.

Tried that. Didn't work. Used Root Explorer to search for all Titanium backup files. Erased. Checked in /system/app nothing there as well. Checked in Applications list to see if it was there, it was. Can't seem to erase it completely off. Tried to redownload and reinstall from market. No go.
hey guys, for the mms fix, i can't seem to get that to work. mainly because the clear cache buttons are greyed out for the original messaging app and chompsms

You need to flash the proper Gapps for CM7. Do a google search for 'Gapps-GB' and you should find the download for it. Save it to your Sd-card and flash it using recovery. Hope this helps.
I am not sure what the problem is. Are you using the built in wi-fi tethering. I read somethere what the tethering app does not work.. I have had no problems with the build in wi-fi tethering. I ran my phone yesterday with GPS and some calls, text msg, etc and left it on overnight to see how it would do. I woke up and still had 38% after over 20 hours since last charged.
I am currently expierencing terrible wifi reception on my evo, also the data seems to go in and out of connection sometimes
also my mms is not working properly and I cannot seem to fix it, I have ran fix permissions in ROM Manager, Clear cache in settings, and reseting app data in Titanium... I dont want to wipe my phone (too many settings to mess with to get it back to how I like it ) but I am willing to if thats how it will get fixed...
Hi,
I thought that to install wiui stable (2.2.3) all i had to do was go to recovery and install from zip to install wiui. I'm coming from CM7.2 quarx, but i didn't think that'd be a problem.
After the first install, it went fine, except there were tons of Force Closes (first for launcher) so i couldn't even use the phone. I then flashed the launcher pro for wiui .zip and then it booted up, but had different FCs (android.media process, and a couple others, i can't remember)
So after, i decided to reflsh to cm7.2, and it's fine. all my contacts are gone, and homescreensetups, etc. but it looks like all my apps are there, mms, call hstory, etc.
I then tried to reinstall wiui again, and now it's stuck in boot loop. I've tried wiping cache and dalvik, i just don't know what else to do.
If anyone can spare the time to help, i'd greatly appreciate it.
thank you
simple method..
flash CM7.2 again..backup all ur apps with the help of titanium backup...
go to recovery...wipe data..then flash wiui..wipe cache and delvik cache...reboot...
install titanium backup..restore all ur apps..
Advice for future..to avoid force closes, always wipe date before shifting to other ROMs!
Ye thanks, i did that. but when i restored my apps i got the FCs again. maybe something in my data is incompatible w/ wiui? oh well, I've gone back to CM7.2 again. but now i had to use sync[ix app to get all the pics back to my contacts. not sure why it didn't work like it did before.
The times I've done that, I've shut down the phone and restart because a simple reboot didn't do the job. Also, I run ROM Manager and fix permissions. I can't tell you the last time I had an FC.

Just restore the apps and not the app data, this is a problem I had when moving from CM7 to WIUI.
First run of WIUI I had loads of FC's. I wiped data, installed zip, wiped cache and dalvic again, then when going through Titanium backup I didnt restore the app data.
I have had no problems since then.
hope that helps, WIUI is really nice
Does anyone know of any permanent solutions to the error received while trying to download apps in the marketplace after running a ROM? I have gone to Google Account Services and deleted the cache/memory along with the Dalvik cache in Recovery. It only solves the problem temporarily until it comes back after a few hours.
I have also noticed sync issues as well with e-mail and gmail (very frustrating) and hang ups while shutting down or reboot. Not sure if it is related or not.
Here is the ROM I'm running:
Issues with [ROM][ICS 4.0.3] :ARKSIDE.EVOLUTION.3:: [v4][UVLE1][VENOM][6.16.2012]
I also ran Mr. X's rooted stock ICS ROM in an attempt to relieve the issue but that didn't work either.
Sorry if the answer to this question has been posted already. Couldn't find a solid answer on the forums.
Thanks
dude im running the same rom and kernel and everything you are, and i to get that problem once in a while lol the easiest way to fix it is to just go in to Applications>All>Google.Play.Store and then UNINSTALL UPDATES. This should allow you to download apps with out a problem, but sooner or later the error will pop up again. Anyways this helps you not go through the whole route of rebooting in to recovery and whipping cache and stuff.
(i also ran mr.x rooted stock rom and i got the same problem sometimes)
as for the email syncing i have no problem with that. I have mine on manual syncing so thats probably why. lol.
I'll cut to the chase with my issues and explain where I am now. Then I'll go through some if the previous issues leading up to this...
I got tired of the problems and flashed back to stock FC09 with Odin.
Booted up and made sure it worked...
Flashed CWM 5.0.2.7 with Odin.
Rebooted
Flashed CWM 6.0.2.8 with CWM...
Booted up to make sure nothing broke.
Data, dalvik, and cache wipe
Flashed a CM 10.1 nightly from a couple weeks ago.
Flashed goo.im's latest jelly bean pack (2013-03-01 iirc)
Booted up and went through the normal setup.
Only google apps that showed up are search, play, talk, and voice search. No Gmail or Maps or others. Gallery I'd there but force closes right away. So it and the camera do not work.
I haven't tried recreating the rest of the problems yet since I ran into a problem there.
The rest of the problem started after finally deciding to try the nexus radio hack. I got it working then had a hell of a time getting it working again after flashing a newer nightly. What should have worked didn't. Got it working then decided to revert back to the factory modem and CM 10.1 kernel. Wasn't worth the hastle for me.
After all that I got it working again. Then after the next nightly I lost all my apps, Google apps, and contacts.
Since then I was able to manually flash the Google apps and get it working but even then, it would not sync automatically though I set it to do so. It would forget my contacts and would not sync with gmail unless I did so manually.
Looked at to goo.im zip... realized gmail and maps were not in there.
While I was confused... that does not change the fact the phone seems broken in bazaar ways.
Losing my contacts randomly, refusing to automatically sync to Google, losing my apps after flashing an updated rom (also changes my background to an old one) and other weirdness.
Restored my latest nandroid backup after realizing the camera was broken last night. Everything worked perfect before making that backup. Now the camera and gallery force close...

Go to Settings->Apps->All : Find and click on Gallery then hit the button that says "Clear Data". That should fix the force close problem.

Nope...
Tried that and also cleared the cache and dalvik in CWM.
Neither helped.
Thank you though...
Well, if anyone else runs into similar and finds this via a search here is where I ended up...
I re flashed to stock again with Odin. Only I set it to re partition this time. Then flashed can via Odin.
Finally, I flashed CM 10.1 and gapps.
Everything worked...
Restored the data out of my latest nandroid backup.
Everything was good.
Ran cyandelta to update to the latest nightly and all hell broke loose again.
Think it is because we are butting so close against a full system partition. I had less than 100k free.
I ran my "remove useless junk" script via a CWM flash. I now have almost 100mb free and everything is working as it should. I'm betting I won't have any more issues if I set cyandelta to flash it after updating from now on.
The flash removes a bunch of stuff from CM that I don't need and/or never use like wallpapers, sound files, videos, a few apps and other random things. Need to update it for 10.1 since I made it for 10.0 though...
And today it forgot my Google account...
Noticed my contacts were missing and then saw gmail wouldn't open.
Settings> accounts did not have Google listed.
+ Add account did not have Google listed to add it back.
Had to flash gapps again and set my account back up...
This is one of the original problems...
