hi to all.
I noticed a problem yesterday, i can't update my apps. It says "update" and when i press on it, it downloads, and after 1second "installing" it says : Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card :S. And after that the same app doesn't have "update" status - it says "free" although i have that app on my Desire. And if i download again - it says the same, couldn't install. But i CAN install other apps, that i don't have on my phone. Can somebody help me. i'm running stock 2.2 - not rooted.
Try "Clear Data" and Cache for the market. That may work

Clear data clears all, cache included.
Try clearing Download manager data too.

doesn't help either
Then it is probable Google related in regard to your region. Few weeks ago half of my apps were missing from my apps list so I had to use market enabler to update my apps. This week it started working normal as usual. Wait for a few days, maybe it comes to its senses.

i thought the same
I had exactly the same problem last night and this morning, I wiped all caches including the Dalvik.
It now seems to be working! Rooted with CM7
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
so... i found some solution. ex: Google googles can't update. If i move it to internal and update it's ok. I moved it again on sd and the new version (1.5.2) again doesn't update. i must again move it to internal. it's stupid to do this all the time. I formated the sd card - again the same. what can be the cause? and the cure ? tnx
edit|
found solution online if someone need it :
The solution? Go and delete smdl2tmp1.asec yourself. From what I can tell, it could reside in 2 locations:
/sdcard/.android_secure – this is an invisible folder on your SD card, which you can access with any file manager, like ASTRO
/mnt/secure/asec/ – access to this folder requires root and a program like Root Explore
Ive had that issue in the past and deleting the file helped the first time. HOWEVER, I've encountered this problem again recently, and this fix no longer works. Anyone has another fix?
Froyo, no root, stock rom.
I lost my ability to install apps from the market after I flashed this ROM. I've used many ROMs and stock firmwares before this, and it used to work on all of them. I have 1.2 GB free in my device's memory and about 6GB on my SD card.
BUMP - I really need help with this.
I don't know the real problem but you can reinstall market or use market enabler. Or flash other ROM
Got a Headache? It's all in your Head.
Goto Settings - Manage Applications - Market - Clear Cache and Clear Data.
Restart the phone and launch back market.
Still not working.
Guys please I really need help. Does anyone know what's wrong?

if clearing market data doesn't work or reinstalling it, try factory reset. If not reinstall ROM. If still doesn't work, change your ROM

Factory resetting doesn't work either. I've tried re-installing the ROM many times, but to no avail. I really don't want to change my rom, so is there any other way to fix it on this one?
Please reply guys, kinda desperate here.

I have exactly the same issue. Just installed CyanogenMod7. Market wouldn't download for me. Then installed vending-3.1.3.apk which installed the new market. Now get the error that there is not enough room on the device, which is not true. Got heaps!
Mine as been solved...but not sure what the cause was. I tend to think its gapps:
1. Downloaded latest gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip and installed it on my SD card
2. From 2ndinit deleted cache partition
3. Cleared data/ reset
4. Cleared Dalvic cache
5. Installed above zip from SD card
6. rebooted
I have searched these forums and have come across similar posts but not quite the problem I am having. From time to time I will get a market error when trying to update apps. "Market Error 492" and it wont download the update. I can fix this everytime by booting into recovery>Advanced>wipe Davilik Cache. Then Reboot. This will take care of my problem but will eventually comeback but never is it consistent.(sometimes I can go months before it happens) Is there a way to prevent this from happening at all? here is what I have:
Carrier: USCC
Device: HTC Desire CDMA
ClockworkMOd Recovery
Rom: CM7 Stable
Thanks in advance for any help
Have you tried clearing the market app's data?
I know it sounds stupid, its your sd card. Format it, backing up what you need

Hi, mount SD-card on my PC and delete the .android_secure directory, which will re-enable the market functionality.
hi, i have an SGS1 with Mosiac 9...
market stopped working today.... tried the following..
clear dalvik cache
clear cache
clear market cache
BUT how do i find the .android_secure directory
i cant even find it through my android rooted file manager?
thanks..
PS.. seeing how many different phones, ROMs are having this issue... i am believing that its a market specific issue?
i also found this... but i dont know how to use it correctly or if its applicable... im a newb....
"When the Android Market app 3.4.4 was starting the download of an app it failed after a few seconds with error "could not be downloaded due to error 492". Searching on the internet I found some Asian page which contains the solution ... execute "chmod 777 /data/download". After I had execute this statement under adb shell, I had been able to install apps without any problems on my AC100 (with the OS update from July 2011)"
PPS.... how do i edit my signature... cant find that anywhere?
thanks again

I mistakenly uninstalled an app i was using. When I downloaded it again and installed, it suddenly says insufficient memory. What happened and what do i do?

Well... Clear up some memory and try again...
You can use "Clean Master" for that.
Another option...
There is another option, though it may be frowned upon by some here.
There is an app called lucky patcher, I found it while trying to find a solution to this problem some time back (300mb of space on device, not SD card and I still couldn't install a 1mb app). You won't find it in the play store though so you will need to google it, that has a fix for that issue. Under the app's settings there's a troubleshooting option. In that menu there is an option to fix the no space bug (Just read, under each option it has a description). It's worked for me on sense 4 roms as well as sense 5 roms. This is the only reason I keep this app lying around.
Hope this works for you and I don't run into any trouble for suggesting this...

Wi-Fi not working
Hello and thanks again for keeping our great ancient device alive I have, however, encountered one very unfortunate problem with the wi-fi, which connects to the wi-fi network but then there's no internet connection. I tried updating the radio to the newest version found here, I have tried installing Wifi Fixer and re-installing the ROM a couple times. On previous ROMs (stock CM 7.2 and Andromadus Mimicry (CM9.1)), the wi-fi worked just fine. Also the wi-fi router provides connection to other devices seamlessly. Do you have any idea where the problem might be?
EDIT: OK, to make sure, I flashed CM 7.2 again (both stable and latest nightly), only to find out that on this particular wi-fi network, internet connection doesn't work for my Desire Z so something's probably wrong with the router TP-Link TL-WR740N.
EDIT2: Connectify solved the problem so there's definitely something wrong with the router, even though it has the latest firmware. (And the strangest thing is that Connectify worked fine while sharing internet connection from the same router that didn't work with my Desire Z directly... WTF? )
Slow response and out of space (AlterNdromadus CM10.1)
Hi, I'm new to custom ROMs, and I'm certainly no developer, but I have been successfully running this one on my HTC Desire Z for about a month. It's been more or less fine but I have two issues:
1. My phone seems to be getting slower and slower to respond. Is that just because I'm an app addict and I have installed too much crap?
2. I'm getting the "out of space" error when I try to install or update apps, even though according to the DiskUsage app I'm using I have 110 MB free on internal storage. I have seen the fix of deleting the logs in /data/logs, but this directory does not exist on my phone! Where else should I look for old logs? What else can I try?

I use an appcache cleaner ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.infolife.cache ) and also you might think about moving apps to the sdcard.

Well, I've tried both, and I currently have 126.9mb free in internal storage and 128.7mb free on the SD card. But I still get an "insufficient space" error when trying to update apps.
What is the underlying source of this problem? And what can I do about it? It seems odd that I can't update a 50kb app when I have 126mb free.
PS: apologies if this got posted twice; I thought I responded yesterday but I don't see the other post.

try clearing the data of the play store and see if that helps.

Slide unlock with pattern security
Hello is there a way how to disable slide shotcuts when I wake up my phone and skip to pattern entry? I don't want to use those shortcuts and it is just an annoyence :/

sorry out of thoughts....maybe a ROM reload.
I get that insufficient space error quite a bit - here are some things to try:
Uninstall updates for the Google Play Store through "Settings" --> "Apps" --> "All." I've had better luck with earlier versions of the Play Store, though very recent builds seem to be improving WRT this behavior.
I usually try to keep 140-180 MB free, which will be enough for most programs to update. Problematic ones are Swype, Swiftkey, Dropbox, and OneNote, which can be uninstalled and reinstalled with the later version if necessary.
I move plenty of stuff to SD with "DS app2SD Lite" and uninstall things like Talkback with "System Apps Remover (Root)." I also run "lagfix (fstrim) free" ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grilledmonkey.lagfix&hl=en ) every now and again, which might help further.
As far as slowness - you can try tips mentioned a few pages back in the ROM threads for setting up internal swap with Turbo Boost ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145133 ) and misc scripts like Supercharger v6 which is also included in the more comprehensive "PurePerformance" mod ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360670 ).
Some critical opinions on Supercharger: https://plus.google.com/+AndrewDodd/posts/3AaCammc2Jw
In any case, with a fast swap set up with Turbo Boost, you can reduce or disable ZRam entirely.

I also use Amazon services & appstore, which to my regret runs in the background always and won't hibernate. Appstore / Amazon store app / Amazon Music all churning away, sucking up my precious megs and mips and is the cause for some of my own hiccups.
I also occasionally boot to 4ext Recovery and run fsck over adb shell to try to fix filesystem errors for each block device that never seem to stop cropping up. I actually have to reformat cache as ext2, then ext4 again to clear some... but that's probably another issue.
Hope some of this helped.

*sigh* I thought you might say that...
At any rate I went ahead and cleared everything off the SD card (after backing up, of course), then I ran all of the formatting and clearing options in CWM a couple of times. I also messed around with the partition size options in CWM. I didn't take a note of what sizes I chose but I went with the middle of the range options.
After flashing everything again and restoring what I could, it all seems fine again. Perhaps I missed a step in cleaning up before switching from CM7 to this ROM and left too much old info hanging around, eating up space and confusing things? DiskUsage now reports 485mb free, even though I restored all of the apps except GOBackup. Maybe the backup files were being stored in the wrong place.
Hi,
Having one old D-Z on shelf and now got inspired to flash custom Rom in it and this AlterNdromadus 10.1 seems most interesting Rom on sight, there is only one problem; can't find any download link for Rom
Could someone post a link or direct me to right place?

Lock sdcard access through USB possible if phone is locked ?
Hi,
Firstly, thanks a lot for AlterNdromadus !
I just migrated from my old CM 7.0.3 to this latest AlterNdromadus and ... ok, I should have to update earlier
I also flashed the latest gapp-light, updated my radio to latest Europe one and fixed the GPS with the recommended tool (just in case due to radio update)
Everything is ok except one thing. I set a PIN on my phone but it is still possible to access sdcard through USB cable even if the telephone is locked.
For me, it's like a security hole even if the SD card is physically accessible.
After googling the problem :
- I tried to find a "charge only" option without success (settings ==> storage ==> menu ==> USB connection to computer (path "translated" from french))
- I tried to disable usb mass storage but at least one of the three options has to be selected in the menu : USB Mass storage, PTP or MTP.
Why it is possible to access the SD card even if the phone is locked ?
Is there a way to fix this ? or a workaround ?
Thanks
P.S. Yes, English is not my native language
There is already already a KitKat Rom for HTC Desire Z. Problem with Desire Z is, that the hardware performance comes to an end, what I read in that post, so that someone went back to your 4.2.2 version. This was my experience, too, with an optimized 2.3.5 ROM. Without freezing some system apps my configuration wouldn't work on that. I am happy to be able to run a Android 4 version on the Desire Z at all to be able to install apps working only on 4 onward.
Great Rom but touch screen problem
This rom is great, But has anyone experienced touch screen problem after installing it?
I have to frequently lock on and off when my screen seems to stop responding to my touch.
How to fix it please?
Yep -- I have exactly the same problem. But I have to say that this issue has appeared after a some month of using this ROM.
