Sorry to start a new thread. I have read the rules about posting and have searched for the last couple of days for an answer but can't find one.
I am unable to install ANY apps whatsoever and it is driving me crazy. I have an HTC Desire (obviously) and am using Pays ROM Froyo Sense v2.2 A2SD+ (updated just the other day). (And yes, I wiped everything like you are supposed to do, before and after the update.) I don't think the problem is with the ROM itself because the problems started before the update.
I am able to download apps from the market but it seems to get hung up on the installation itself. It never stops installing and I am not even getting a failed installation message.
I have gone to Settings>Applications>Manage applications and cleared the data and cache for all of the normal suggested apps and have even force closed a few. Nothing is working, even when I try to install .apk files which are located in the download folder of my SD card.
One strange thing I have noticed is that when I go to Settings>Applications>Manage applications, the amount of space being used never displays anything other than 'computing....' I know sometimes it can take a while for the size to be displayed but surely not an hour!
I have even restored the default/factory settings to see if that helped but nothing!!! grrrrr.....
I am reaching the end of my rope and would appreciate any advice offered. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this isn't a newbie mistake and thanks in advance for any help!
have you tried another rom see if the problem persists? it usuall only takes a minute for manage applications to find all my apps and i have looooooads also no problem with market, do a nandroid, and try another rom, if its still the same you can always restore your nandroid, i suggest maybe leedroid
Thanks so much for your reply! Was really hoping to avoid trying another ROM but I am going to give LeeDroid a try and hopefully that will sort out my app problem. Just finished downloading it, will flash and post back soon. Thanks again!

like i said do a nandroid, if leedroid dosent work then, you can just restore your backup and your rom will be exactly the same as it was b4 you flash leedroid
FIXED!!! Thank you so much!! Am happily running LeeDroid.
Just FYI: Usually, I have such a problem installing but I leave it (it shows nothing downloading). Upon restarting the phone (whenever), the apps automatically install.

Hello,
I've installed Hensemod a few times now, without any problems the first time I boot the phone.
Only after that, when restarting or turning the phone on again, it takes very long to start, like it's installing again and then the internal memory is suddenly full, even though I had about 100mb when turning the phone off. Also, all apps I installed are gone. In the applications list (in settings) they seem to still be there, but they're all 0kb and there's no shortcuts to them in the programs overview... Like I said, I've installed the Hensemod a few times now, and every time this happens.
Anyone knows how to solve this? I really like this rom, I can finally install and update all apps I want without the phone becoming unusable because of full internal memory! Thanks!

I used HenseModv3 is a nice ROM, u must have to wipe all the data, cache and dalvick cache in the CWM recovery section, then install the HenseMod ROM.
If any other problem, plz share.
I followed all the steps stated in the development forum post, it works fine, just cant restart the phone because it will stop working...
My phone just continuesly restart...
Plug off ur battery, then go to CWM recovery, try to intall any other/different ROM.
I install each ROM by above method,i didn't use fastboot uncheck option.
Never mind I was just being stupid... I wiped the cache partition and not the dalvik cache. Sorry about that! Let's see if it will work now. Installing rom at the moment.
And again... first boot worked fine, after that I'm stuck in a bootloop now... Just like couldzxz. Too bad! I'll have to try yet another mod. Hope the next update of hensemod will solve this!
yes, u can try different custom ROM if any problems with a particular ROM
wait for next updates from Henry_01
I got stuck in bootloop too. I reqlly like the rom but well.. :/

Okay, i've seen your problems.
I've tested latest build, but didnt rebooted it.
I suggest you all use a previous version (3).
Problem can be also kernel related.
I don't have time now (exams), I will make a proper working build after some weeks.
Don't hesitate to post here further, I want to know if it is ROM or phone related.
BIG EDIT: i will include link for version 3.
Thanks to djpc for a new hack which will solve reboot/kernel/overclock problems.
Expect a build and a proper test on friday or saterday.
I will change links now so that you will get a good version lol.
Somehow, the fifth time in installed the latest Hensemod rom, it worked like a charm. I can reboot, have installed and updated all apps I wanted and still got like 90mb remaining. Fantastic! Finally after 6 months I have the phone I wanted.
First and second install I couldn't reboot
Third install I got stuck in a bootloop
Fourth install gapps crashed every 2 seconds (due to calendar and contacts synchronization)
Fifth install = perfect!
I don't know how it happened, I just kept on installing this one so I could copy another rom on the sd card since I don't have an adapter or card reader for it.
Thanks!
Ok guys I am starting this thread because I cannot find an answer after searching...
Basically what my problem is right now is that upon reboot of my phone, I get to the lockscreen page and there is no slider to unlock with. Just my wallpaper and notifications bar on top. This happened to me last randomly without me doing anything major (moving apps to sd card, installing new themes, etc.). I simply clicked the screen off after a text and then couldn't unlock the screen.
I am currently running the InfectedRom on my Evo with netarchytoastmod as a kernel I forget which version. I have wiped dalvik cache and regular cache and tried a reboot. Still same problem. I wiped both caches again and reflashed the rom and still nothing. The only thing I can think of to do next is to do a full data wipe, but I'm trying to avoid that cause thats always a hassle. Any ideas out there?
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm not saying its virus' rom,but i had a few bugs trying to use that rom,after the second time flashing it,for some strange reason,my phone would'nt install it anymore,it kept giving error messages.It looks like a real good rom,so whoever got that rom installed and running,let me know your trick,lol.Other than that,i can't give you an answer for your question.Good luck.
Personally I think its the best rom i've used up till now. Looked awesome and never had a single problem with it :/ Thanks anyways!
Hello XDA-Forum
As of today this is my first day and post here.
As a noob ( I watched the video on reg, i found it funny yet noobfriendly D: ) i would like to ask some questions that the all-mighty search button could not find me, or atleast i could not find
I whacked my head all day searching for a way to root my HTC Wildfire S a520e running on 2.3.3 stock marvel s-off phone
and after by mistake factory reseting it, twice....
I finally managed to root it with OneClickRoot or something.
Then i tried to to what i originaly wanted to root for, Overclock.
But after downloading the rom i got from a youtube video, it f**ked me up good.
Now my phone is overclocked, but is slower. and the menu's are all glitchy and white and wrong.
I would like to ask how to return to the stock rom of 2.3.3 that i so much desire.
Meanwhile while i await your answears of joy, i am downloading Cyanogen 7.2 Rom that i found on the interwebs and should so-fit my tiddy little wildfire s.
Toodles.
I installed Cyanogen... and .... well i don't like it (Q_Q)!
i want my old 2.3.3 back (cry)
It feels slower, i don't like the UI
EDIT:
Now that i look at it again.. it's not that bad qq
but where's the android market/google play ?
You need to flash Google apps package from clockwork mod recovery:http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip for market to work.
If you want to go back to stock, download a ruu installer for your region eg euro, Asia etc from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074445
Install from a windows pc
As un-adaptable to new stuff i am and as much i hate change.
I find this cyano-genic blue colour to be semi attractive.
and i decided i'll keep it.
I read that cyanogen has built in overclocking.
Where can i see the hardware? i try'd in about settings but it doesn't say there.
For overclocking go:
Settings
Cyanogenmod
Performance
Cpu
I find this slightly more complicated than the normal android sense, but herpyderpderp atleast i'll be the only one in my class with a custom rom 8D
All the others are iOS/IceCreamSandwich richbishes D:
Is there something Cyanogen can't do that the original android stock can do?

I know i ask a lot of questions but i'm stuck at "Touch the android" after i flashed this thing
i touch the android and nothing happens... this happens on boot
I find myself in a position where i cannot procceed, this "touch the android" is stopping me ._.

You might need to reflash.
Clear your data and dalvik in cwm
Flash cm7 latest nightly
Flash gapps
On first start take your time DONT press the android right away.
Give all background apps and SD time to load, maybe 30-60 seconds then press it and continue setup.
I have had that issue in the past.
Hope it helps you.
CM7 is a great rom, so customisable enjoy and make it your own.

I factory reseted.. i hate having to do that.....
it got stuck at cyanogen 7 loading boot, will this happen again if i use the thing you gave me for android?
damN! factory reset didn't fix it, how do i reflash when i deleted the file from the SDCard? now i can't put it back on the SDcard
EDIT: I got the file on again, but this software is way too fragile...
http://pockethacks.com/htc-wildfire-s-custom-rom-android-2-3-3-gingerbread/
Is that older or new'r ?
And can i get THAT interface on my now installed rom?
EDIT:
Stuck at HTC, still wown't load after re-flash
Did you wipe data and dalvik?
Its important you do!
Use this cm7, latest nightly build http://cm7-wildfire-s.googlecode.com/files/update-cm-7.2.0-RC1-marvel-03_29_2012.zip
I'm thinking of getting this http://code.google.com/p/cm9-wildfi...rc0-unofficial_rom-alpha0-signed.zip&can=2&q=
So far so good, it has minor problems i don't like
but what can i do -sigh-
there's an option called "Data Enable"
Does that take like money or anything?
also how can i use Voice Speech in this rom?
i wanna be able to talk on skype and it turns out as text
just as a question, could there be a problem during the installation, becouse the clock on the start seems to not be visible, it said some kind of error and i removed it from the screen. also it has 90mb free now
feels like first time i installed it it had like 110
THe clock on the lockscreen? You probably changed a setting. Or a clock widget? You probably deleted it. Just hold on the home screen and re add it form there.

Yes that worked, it wasn't deleted i guess.
I pretty much set up my phone overnight. (now my body hurts from exhausture)
I'm still haveing problems setting things up like voice to text on skype and other stuff.
Overclocking crashes my phone a lot. I know that happens but it happens like every 20 mins or something.
Also can i UPDATE from 7 to 9 without having to start over.
just update?
UPDATE: Also, i loose some files from sdcard (games installed) when it crashes when overclocked sometimes.
What the... i restarted my phone and all the stuff on SDCard is deinstalled, gone D:
EDIT: It came back after 5 mins
EEK!
I was putting some stuff on my SDCard when suddenly i open proccess list and on SC card it says No applications, 1.4 used, 431free but nothing QQ Hawp
all my icons are now with the android pic on them D: helppp
I'm starting to hate this already D:
Also my google play went back to market

Hi Guys,
I'm from India and I updated my Xperia S[LT26i] to JB 4.1.2 a week ago via Sony Update Service. The build no. is 6.2.B.0.211.
The phone was working PERFECTLY till today. It was a joy using the phone and suddenly today morning, the phone rebooted, all the apps and games and tweaks that I'd installed on my phone were gone. The language had automatically changed to Bosnian . All the wifi-passwords were gone. It was as if it restored to factory settings, without my permission in an alien language. I tried rebooting my device several times but to no avail. ALSO, all the data on my internal memory card is lost!!! :'(
There was a lot of important data, photos and files! ALL GONE!
What could be the reason for this happening? Is there anyway I can restore it to its previous glory as it was very tedious and took me weeks to customise it exactly as I wanted it.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you.
P.S. - My phone was rooted before the updated, but it was automatically unrooted after the update to JB.

Settings once lost are lost , thats why everyone recommend to take a Nandroid backup of ROM.
if anything of "this" sort happen, you can just restore the backup and nothing is lost.
But your case is weird bro !!

It's really weird. And BOSNIAN?! I thought my phone was hacked or something. I have the recovery softwares to recover data, I just hope it works on cellphones since I've never tried it before. What I wanna know is, if it's a recognised bug or is something wrong particularly with my phone.

I suggest you reflash the ROM. then use DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit
Read the instructions carefully
Then Install recovery to take backup.
If this problem happens again, reflash to some stock based custom ROM which is more stable..

I am using official JB from Sony, wouldn't it be easier if I just installed everything like and customise and then take backup instead of flashing the ROM with an unofficial one?

if dont want unofficial , then flash the stock jb.( the rom u using now, flash it again, clean install)
All your settings gone ,right?
try this if you dont wanna flash,
skip the flash , use the rooting kit then install all your tweaks, customizations etc then take a recovery backup. :fingers-crossed:
Captain Droid said:
Yes bro that too can be done. Now you are on JB right , but all your settings gone ,right?

So, I can't recover the files because the phone is attached as portable media player to my laptop. Recovery works only if I attach it as Mass Storage Drive. Any idea how I can do that? I remember this feature was present in Gingerbread, but never saw it since ICS.

Yes. I rooted the device as well successfully.
The phone connects to the computer as portable media device giving me access to the files but its not quite same as the Mass Storage Device.
Tried certain apps as well but nothing would work. I want to mount my phone as MSD, like a pen drive or an extrernal HDD.
Try go asetting, app, the clear data for the album and walkman app to get back all Yr picture and music. Then the rest is slowly install back
