[Q] Gun Bros not working on cm7? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently rooted my htc incredible and I have it on the cm7 rom. I love the rom and I am very happy with everything about it. However Gun Bros does not open up. I click on the app it goes to a black screen as if it is trying to load up and after about 3 seconds it just goes back to the home screen of my phone. No force close pop up or anything. Any explinations or possible fixes? I have read other threads and posts but everything is around phones that just cant support it. Mine worked fine before the root now its just taking up space.

Try running fix permissions in rom manager and reboot.

I did try running the fix permissions and reboot. I should have put that in the first post. I guess the fix permissions and reboot would be like the classic pull the battery method so it was one of the first things I tried. I even tried making a new rom of the same cm7 as well as some others... do you know if any of the cm roms will support it or open it? I dont want a sense rom or even a nonsense rom. I like cm a lot and I have everything customized and set up the way I want it. I guess I'm just looking to know can Gun Bros be played or am I just out of luck? lol

When I ran cm gun bros worked..try uninstalling and reinstalling gun bros..maybe it was a bad download or a bad restore from titanium backup or my backup root or whatever you use
/Dinc

Gun bros works fine on my phone which is running latest MIUI which is also an AOSP rom like CM7. If I were you I'd uninstall gun bros, delete any files it leaves behind and reinstall it.

did you get it working brandon??

so the ass above me is the one who rooted my phone and I blame him. I have unistalled and re installed gun bros multiple times and it still does not work. Guess I'm going to have to find a new game to play... dont want to give up but it seems like my phone hates me.

Rooting has nothing to do with the app.. like stated above probably a bad download...

You say rooting has nothing to do with the app but that is hard to believe. It worked before the root and does not now that the root has been done. I'm sure we can all agree that backing up and using a restore through titanium backup is very much part of the rooting process. Like I said before I have in installed and really downloaded the game many times and still no luck. However I can restore my stock ROM and the game works fine. Just not after I boot into my new ROM.

So if i have unistalled gun bros multiple times and re installed it many times and my phone will not open the game still what would be causing it still. I understand it could have been a bad restore at first but why would my phone not ruin the app after a completely new download?

[Q] Making the switch to Cyanogen for the first time - Few Questions

I'm just about to finally make the switch to Cyanogen after being on Sense ROMs ever since rooting. Not sure if I'm going to go with the latest alpha with wimax this weekend or wait a little longer for CM7. Before I do, I have a few questions.
1. When doing an app restore via titanium should I do an app restore only and not app+data?
2. When doing the app restore, can I do a batch restore of all of them or should I do them individually making sure I don't select any HTC apps? I'm worried that by restoring something like 'Weather' it will cause issues in cyanogen because it's an HTC app.
3. Is it best to use the built in multimedia apps in cyanogen over 3rd party apps or does it matter? For instance I have the paid version of Mixzing and love it. I'm assuming it will work without issues in cyanogen but worry that I'm missing some great cyanogen-only features by not using the built in music player.
Thanks in advance.
Welcome to CM. I made the switch for the first time a couple of weeks ago and haven't looked back.
I'm new to this myself but I'll tell you what I've learned. As far as titanium backup goes I usually install my apps separately just to be safe. I do just the apps and then the data. I haven't had an issue doing it this way. Your HTC apps will not work in a CM rom so I wouldn't suggest trying. That will cause issues. Your third party apps should work just fine. All of the ones I use work with no issues.
The guys in the official cm threads are great. They are normally willing to help just try to read through them first to see if your question may have been answered. Good luck man. If you need help just holla I'll help in anyway I can.

Great thanks. One thing though, how do you know which apps are HTC ones? Not all of them show up in the app title. The Weather one is a perfect example.

If you delete an app via titanium backup [which I use] most of the time when you delete it it'll show like htc blah blah blah.apk, so you can try that, or search for a list of stock htc apk files. I hope that helps.
Edit: Also, your Mixzing app will work, and you can have multiple music player apps, so you can experiment to see what you like. That also goes for other apps, like multiple theme viewers, browsers, ect.

Miui issues: laggy, missing google shortcuts, more

Hey guys,
Despite my post title, I really like MIUI a lot (I'm on Evo with 1.5.20). It's been extremely stable for me, no FCs and the interface is very clean in a way that I like. Its been fine as a daily driver for me and I just have a few issues that are preventing me form staying with it, but I thought I'd ask for help/feedback first:
1) Lagginess: Everything I read about MIUI said it was blazing fact, but on my evo, i find its a bit slow. It doesn't "stutter" in the middle of things like my stock rom, but it just is slow moving. Any feedback on whether this is normal or if I have a setting wrong?
2) Google shortcuts: I used to have shortcuts directly to gmail folder/labels so I could jump right into some filtered email. Now I don't see this capability in MIUI or any direct navigation or call shortcuts, etc. Why?
3) 3G speed: My 3g seems slower and laggy as well. Web pages often get stuck at 10% and then take a long time to resume and load. Any idea why?
4) Bluetooth: I get occasional bluetooth drops if I try to do something else on the phone while talking. For example, I took a business call today, then fired up wifi to look something up while talking and my bluetooth dropped.
5) Sounds/themes: the range of sounds seems limited or not to my liking and the downloadable themes look to "Asia" to me. Any way to get better system sounds and more clean, americanized themes?
6) Clock timer: I used my stock stopwatch or minute timer when BBQing all the time and was shocked to find there isn't one on MIUI. Is here an update or do you just use another app?
Thanks in advance for any help. Despite the list above, its really somethign I am very happy with and haven't had the urge to reflash, but I would like to get these last issues resolved.
Try a reboot that happened to me and a reboot fixed it

Thanks Killa, but I've rebooted before. it's not hugely slow, but sure as heck isn't blazingly fast as many reviews indicated.
Just curious, what did you wipe before you flashed? A few of the issues are common with people who flash a new ROM without wiping. Did you use Calikulin's format all?

I went into recovery, wiped both cache's and did a factory data reset. I don't get any (well, very few) FC's and the phone runs just fine, its just slower than I expected.
You might want to back everything up and use either calks format all or virus superwipe. What recovery are you using? Clockwork had a problem not fully wiping, I dont know if that is still the case. I use amon-ra recovery, myself.

Using clockwork. The problem with half this rooting stuff is everyone is using different tools and its tricky to find where to download them all. A lot of threads and links end up being outdated.
If you have rom manager you can switch to amon-ra through the application. The option is at tge bottom it says flash.alternate recovery, that is amon-ra. You can get calk's format all zip from his threads he has a couple. You can also search by author of thread. His handle is calukin.

That didn't work, bloody hell!!!! My phone was running so well, I guess I will have to reflash the rom ::weeps::
Be cautious un-installing apps using titanium.

Make sure you place the apk in the system/apps using something like root explorer.
no problems here, just installed it as a market update, no pushing req'ed.
its interesting to me that some are getting issues with app installs on this ver?
it Does seem to break a feature or two with TB (from what ppl are saying, out there, on the internets), the dev has been alerted, and I would expect an update soon. as far as Amazon... idk
worked flawlessly for me, but then again, I don't use Amazon, or TB to uninstall appz.

[Q] Multiple issues after transferring with Titanium Backup

Just to let people know, I'm a relative noob to Android in general and particularly to this site, so have some patience.
My wife's Samsung Galaxy S 4g's screen broke, so she got the T989 as a replacement. After doing some research, it seems that Titanium Backup was the recommended way to move data over. So, I needed to educate myself on how to do that. The original phone was easy and I did the backup. The S II was less easy and after spending way too much time on the i9100 forum, I found out I was in the wrong place.
So, anyways, got her phone jailbroken and ran TB on it to restore. Unfortunately, it seems to be the beginning of my problems. Phone app didn't work. Cleared data there, which she lost her contacts. TWLauncher throws errors. Clear data there as well. Messaging hasn't worked either, and it seems to be the solution is to wipe the whole thing. I also can't seem to browse the file system via USB.
What am I doing wrong here? All I wanted to do was to move everything over from the old phone to the new one, but it seems I bought trouble.
You are reporting a back up from a completely different phone. Restoring data will often cause things to go funny. It's usually recommended to simply restore the app and nothing more. I would recommend just resetting the phone back to stock, full wipe and don't restore anything. See how it functions initially, then once you think things are going well, just start to restore apps.
:beer: cheers

also, be sure to not restore system apps until you have become a butt more familiar with how everything works. (especially when coming from another device)

If i wanted to back up a game, i selected back up. I changed the back up location to my external sd card and also used google drive to store the info too. If i install twrp and flash a custom rom, will i be able to install the app and continue playing my game at the same spot i saved it at? I tried searching for the answer but have seen mixed answers via google dancing around my specific question. Thanks everyone for your time.

It's going to depend on the app really. Some apps don't play well with some roms. I've backed up games and restored to current roms and been fine, while others didn't restore correctly. Trial and error my friend, trial and error.

Major Issues with Titanium Backup

I just took the leap and started installing custom ROM's on my new Note 2. I have been rooting and ROM'ing since the original Droid on Verizon and I haven't looked back since. But I am having trouble restoring apps from my stock root ROM to Jedi X7.2 and MyROM ROMs. Titanium backup simply hangs when it hits only certain apps i.e. Tetris, Beautiful Widgets, EasyProfiles, PicSayPro, Seekdroid, and Sketchbook pro.
Anyone else experiencing this? I've tried a bunch of the settings but still nothing.
I haven't noticed that specific behavior, but I have noticed that many apps I restored to my Note2 after switching to a custom ROM, don't run proudly unless I reinstall them.
Like you. I've done this many times on over a dozen different Android models, but the Note 2 is the first I've seen this on. It's not a JB thing because I have JB ROMs on multiple devices.

I backed up and restored all user + system apps on my buddies nexus 4. All seemed well but once he reboots the phone the Gallery app (which includes camera) becomes uninstalled. He had to restore from TB each time he reboots his phone. Anyone have any idea why?

I am experiencing this now when running the latest versions of both JellyBam ROM and Titanium Backup. I had noticed certain apps have frozen up during a restore.

I've THOUGHT it was hung up but some apps take a VERY long time but eventually restore. Give it a real minute or 2. Maybe because they are opened? Other than that I have never had this problem. All USER apps work without issue after restoring and I have restored literally hundreds of times across many devices including the GN2.
You guys can still restore however you need to change the restore mode. Go perf, app processing mode, change to interactive. Roboot.

No it froze once over night. I was going to bed and was just going to let it restore while I slept and it hung on an app that always does, so time doesn't matter.
I'll have to try the interactive mode, but everything is working fine now after manual installs from the market so I don't want to mess things up.
