I did a lot of reading before I did this to be sure I wouldn't lose anything. Here's the step by step for others, since I was unable to find it all in one place. This is for the MT4G/Glacier, no idea if the process is similar on other phones. You should probably still read, but I couldn't find any of this all in one place:
If you flash, here's what you need:
- Rooted phone (if you need to root, search for the gfree method, it's the easiest)
- ROM Manager from the Market. Get the premium version.
- TitaniumBackup from the Market.
- Sync turned on for your contacts and calendars in your google account.
1. Go into TitaniumBackup, set the option to store the settings on the SDCard. Go into Backup/Restore, hit menu, and run the batch to do a full backup of system and user apps/data.
2. Go into ROM Manager. At the top, click the option to install ClockworkRecovery. Make sure it installs version 3.0.0.5. Then click the option to reboot into recovery mode. In recovery, make a ROM backup of your existing ROM. It will store on the SD card. Reboot back into the OS.
3. Go back into ROM Manager, scroll down to Download ROM's. You should see CM7 Nightlies in there. Download the latest build. It will ask you if you want to also download the GAPPS package, grab that also. When it's done, it will ask you what you want to do... just cancel. Go to reboot in recovery mode.
4. In recovery:
- Wipe/Factory Reset
- Clear cache partition
- Advanced -> clear Dalvik cache
- On main screen, install ZIP from SD
- Navigate to sdcard->clockworkmod->downloads->teamdouche and select the CM7 zip for your phone that was downloaded
- When that is done, install another zip from sd, go into the goo.inside.me directory and install GAPPS zip
- Reboot phone from main menu
5. Enter your gmail creds that you used for your primary account from before
6. Cancel the additional downloads thing when it pops up, this will pop up again later after you enable wireless
7. Go into ROM Manager, Select the Fix Permissions option, reboot (wifi won't work unless you do this)
8. Enable wifi and join to your network
9. Eventually you will get the popup again. Select the stuff that you want installed.
It will pull down all of your apps from the market and install them. If you want to restore user data for the apps, you can go into titanium and click on the app, and restore it with the data. Don't do this until it's done updating from the market. Do NOT restore system level stuff. You will cause problems if you restore system level stuff from 2.2 or earlier on 2.3.x.
You should also install SetCPU from the market, set to start on boot, set conservative mode, and create a screen off profile that limits to 368mhz/conservative. In advanced, leave the defaults, except change the cpu up threshold to 75, and the scaling percent to 11 or 12. Massive battery improvements. You can overclock with this also, mine is only overclocked to around 1100mhz. Some people are running 1800mhz. I heard smartass mode instead of conservative is also good, but haven't tried it.
Keep in mind that if you have an HTC phone with the Sense Framework, you won't have that anymore. So if you liked the Sense dialer (which I did), you can't get it. The stock dialer is functional, but not the best. DialerOne and Dialer2 look the most interesting, but they still aren't as good. If you have CSipSimple installed, remove it. CM7 has SIP built into it, and CSipSimple confuses the phone when trying to make calls. If you liked the Sense clock widget, you can get a replacement, search for Beautiful Widgets on the market. The built in camera app is not Sense either, but does all the same things. The Gallery is awesome, best gallery I've ever seen (stacks that you can pull apart and flip through, very cool).
If GPS doesn't work, download GPS Status from the market and use it to clear the A-GPS data and cache. It's the only app that can do it. It's free.
Also, if you want to go back to your previous ROM, you can flash back with the ROM Manager backup that you made. The only thing is, you'll have to downgrade the clockwork recovery bootloader to 2.5.1.2 first. You can do this by flashing a zip from your SD card. The zip is available somewhere on these forums. I don't have a link, but you can find it by searching a bit. The 3.0.0.5 version cannot flash a Froyo or earlier ROM for some reason. I'm not going back, so I haven't done this.
My TitaniumBackup realized somehow that I installed fresh, and it automatically restored my apps and data. It did NOT on my friend's phone. But, he has the free version and I have the paid one. If it doesn't restore your app settings, you can manually go in and do it. One thing that I've never been able to restore is Good corporate email. It restores, but it won't send or receive. If anyone has ideas on this, post them.
Note that I flashed with build 35, and it's been rock solid. Your mileage may vary. If you already have the software noted above, the whole process only takes about 5-10 mins.
Edit: Recovery 3.0.0.6 was released, and works with 2.2 and 2.3. So you wouldn't have to downgrade the recovery to go back a version. As of this edit, you can grab it here if it's not showing up in ROM Manager yet: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952433
Something to add... if you are using ADW or LPP do a backup if those also. I find that if you install it fresh from the market and not TB then press restore settings in their preferences it will load all the custom icons and custom dock. It saves alot of time. Nice writup for the peeps that need the pointers for a fresh and fast install of a nightly
FYI, Titanium backup works great at restoring apps. I would be weary of restoring data between android versions however, because some of the data will be of a different type and could cause lots of issues. Thats the reason for the full data wipe before flashing in the first place.

I thought that was mostly because of system. The apps themselves still store their data in sqlite databases, and their schema should not change between versions of the actual OS. I might be wrong.
app data is fine, system data is what causes issues. I should have been more specific.

The only system stuff I install is the accounts back up, email data, wifi access points, and account and sync settings. I usually dont have a problem installing this kind of stuff. I had a few problems in the past restoring some system stuff and it made things not work, a lot of force closes. etc.. I would open up say the sound settings in settings and it would never open it would fc 100% of the time. You know I bet a lot of the issues people have with stuff not working when other's have no problems are due to bad restores. I have not once in any of the builds(since 26 when I started flashing CM 7) had an issue with wifi or gps(knock on wood)

But the market automatically downloads all your apps for you. last time i did a full wipe i only used TB to restore data only, since the apps had been installed automatically from market.
You can use My Backup Pro to back up your SMS and MMS, plus bookmarks and a few other things. Very useful if you want to wipe and save your text.

Ok so I just barely rooted and flashed cm7 #40 to my glacier. Everthing is great. I love the rom. I just need help on 2 things. First, how do I get my contacts to sync back to my phone? I had done a factory reset twice before and they always synced back after I logged in my gmail account but not this time. I did sync my gmail before rooting and flashing and I also backed everything up with titanium backup but nothing. Second, when I first flashed the cm7 #40 rom I liked how when I locked the screen it shut off like if you were turning off a tv. I don't know what I did that it does not do it anymore. If anyone knows hows to fix my 2 problems I greatly appriciate it. Thanx.
EDIT: I figured out how to get the screen off animation back but I still have problems getting my contacts to push back to my phone. If anyone knows how to get them to sync it would be helpful.
EDIT#2: Figured out how to get contacts back. Was not able to sync them but just went to the tmo website, wrote them down and re-added them to my phone.

Did you install the GAPPS zip that came with the rom? if you didn't, do. Its the google apps file. That will load the market and apps.

wiped, re-flashed the rom and re-boot. it was the only way i was able to get the animation back.
I'm curious if there's a way to batch-restore data only in Titanium Backup? Only way I can see is to do it app by app.
Likewise, any way to batch-backup data only?
Hi guys,
Its happened again. I started a thread about a problem I had with my android market when I suddenly couldn't download anything..just stuck at "downloading" with the stripes scrolling endlessly. Its just reappeared. Along with the similar problem with the youtube app "there was a problem while playing this video. touch to retry". I reflashed my ROM with ODIN, then wiped all app data then out of frustration..hard reset. Lost all the apps. STILL NOT WORKING. Clearly some Google Account problem. I lost. My wonder feels like a brick without the market working. I had a google account problem when I first bought the phone and had to use a workaround involving setting up a youtube channel. Now I'm really lost.
What kinda Google Account problem?
You on someone's blacklist or what??
Forgive my curiosity....you in China?? GFW??

No I'm not in China, I'm in Ghana in West Africa. I updated three apps last nite on my work WiFi. Before that I'd tried doing it with my 3G network but it was stalling like it is now. When it worked on the WiFi I just thought it was fine. Then tried using the market this morning on my home WiFi and thats when the panic set in. It just seems its not a problem locally on my phone since I've literally WIPED IT CLEAN it but the market still not working. Starts the download, the stripes begin scrolling and continue endlessly. Its as if the google account is malfunctioning somehow but I don't know....
OK.....
You try clear cache and data on Market App in Settings/Applications/Manage
Or maybe fix permissions in Clockwork and Dalvik Cache....

I've cleaned every cache..no good. Done a hard reset(lost all my apps!)..still no good. Can you elaborate on fixing clockwork/dalvik?(Don't have custom recovery installed by the way but have root and TTB Pro installed)

Hi again
Reading through your posts.... you seem to have tried almost everything.....
including reflashing ROM...
which ROM you use.....??
So my suggestion regarding Dalvik Cache and Fix Permissions may be redundant.....however, there I'd an option in Titanium Bkup to repair Dalvik....
Menu/more/Clean up Dalvik.....
Also, there is an App on Market to allow Fix Permissions, but, AFAIK, only 1 App at a time....can you get Market on PC/Laptop???
[Fix permissions is Linux thing, ensuring each file has correct "permissions".]
Perhaps apk can be download and side loaded on phone!!!!
Maybe try install ClockworkMod Recovery[CWM] ......it is in the forum, you can flash with ODIN or push with adb.
This will allow you to any least create Backup[Nandroid].....so you will always be able to restore your full phone contents, Apps, etc.
Sent from my GT-I8150 on Lanzarote Canary Vacation using Tapatalk
Thanks for the concern Irish. I indeed cleared the Dalvik(twice) with TTB before my eventual hard reset. Now there's an update to all this:
-Setup another google account and immediately was able to download a few apps while my phone was stuck on Edge(My mobile data fluctuates between 3G and 2G at home even though I do have 3G most of the time).
-My luck even lasted after the signal switched to 3G(still got two or three apps in) after which I switched to my home wifi to see if it was really fixed...but no. Once I switched to the wifi I was back to square ONE. Switching back to the mobile data network didn't help.
-HOWEVER, at work last nite, I used the wifi at work and the market WORKED flawlessly. Didn't miss a step. Got back the bulk of my 40+ lost apps thankfully.
NOW:
I guess this has more to do with my ISP at home which happens to be my cellular network provider as well(Vodafone GH). But I'm really at a loss now. Even if it was due to some new restrictions by vodafone wouldn't there be a way around it? I know about Android Market and port 5228 and all but I doubt vodafone would block the market when they've got the GS2/Tab on their portfolio. And I've got some evidence that my workplace ISP is a client to...VODAFONE. What a mess!!!
Thanks for your concern though. I'll look for the fix permissions app since that could make a difference. Its the only thing I havent tried anyway! Maybe it'll have to be next time I'm at work(If I cant find the apk).
PS:-I use the XEU unbranded rom (I8150XXLA2_OXXKL4_XEU (2.3.6)). Bought my phone in the UK sim-free
-My WiFi at home is 802.11g while that at work is 802.11n. Both have worked flawlessly with my Wonder and specifically my android market until now.
OK man.....hope you get it fixed.
Don't forget also CWM recovery will allow you backup total phone existing setup.....
so, if you lose stuff again, you only need to restore your backup to recover all Apps, data, everything on your phone.....
so no need to restore Apps again to get back to where you were before crash.
BTW.....fix permissions from Market:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.stericson.permissionfix&hl=en
Although it is pretty basic!!!! But it's from Stericsson.....he is dev for best Busybox Installer!!!!
Honestly, from what you say, I would suspect your home WiFi, you check router settings, etc.
BTW....TB does not completely wipe Dalvik....just repairs what it think's is missing.....
If you had CWM....you could completely wipe this, and run fix permissions. after making.g Nandroid bkup.....
Also, if you used V6 Turbo charger Memory Management Script....there is option to wipe Dalvik.....
It is no prob doing this, simply gets rebuilt by system, but without a lotta built-up rubbish....
Also, with CWM you can wipe all partitions before flashing new ROM....always a good idea.

I've backed up all my apps on my ext. sd with TTB but from all the stories I've read on our forums of FC's when restoring backups from TTB, its wise to get the CWM and do the nandroid. And will try downloading the app. Thanks for your time Irish. Will report back if(or when) its finally resolved. Interesting response from google; seem to share the idea that it has a more to do with 'connectivity' to their servers:
This is their latest response:
Thanks for writing me back. Your reply was very helpful, It's always nice to receive a detailed reply because it helps me a lot when troubleshooting. It sounds like you're having general connectivity issues - please try the following troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue:
- Reboot your device
- Sign in and out of Google Talk repeatedly to restore connection to our servers:
1. Go to your device’s app launcher, and press the Talk app
2. If you’re already signed into Talk, press Menu, and then touch Sign out
3. Launch Talk again to sign in (if you are unable to sign in, please let me know)
- Clear your Market cache (Settings > Applications > Manage applications > All > Market > Clear cache)
- Ensure firewalls are not blocking access to ports required for Android Market (TCP and UDP 5228)
- Confirm that there is strong connectivity on your device, and contact your mobile service provider if you aren't connected
- Uninstall Market updates by visiting:
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, selecting "Market" under the "All" tab or filter and touching "Uninstall updates"
If none of these steps resolve the issue, please let me know, and I will be happy to continue investigating the problem.
Regards,
Cory

That sounds like a good response to me......keep in touch with them!!!

After clearing the stored wifi password, then rebooting before reconnecting to my home Wifi, the android market(and youtube app) are working again. I had cleared out the Dalvik twice last night with the V6 Script. This was all about establishing a connection to Google's servers. Hope it doesn't happen again...can be a real pain. Thanks for the responses

Was it necessary to install gapps (Google Apps) for the ROM you flashed?
If it was, were you able to flash gapps successfully with CWM recovery?
Maybe you could try re-flashing gapps, making sure it's for ICS/CM9.
I hope this helps.
I keep getting that damn error whenever I try to download an app from the play store, even when it's free. I fixed it once before by clearing the cache, data, and uninstalling updates of the market but I don't wanna have to do this Everytime I download an app. Anyone have a fix?

Log into your google account and check your wallet. There may be an issue with your payment method. If everything is fine, try deleting the app and then reinstalling the market. You can google "android market apk" to find it, or Google "google play apk". Download and install.
If that still doesn't solve, it could also just be the Google servers having an issue.

might be a ROM issue
I have the same "error processing issue" problem. I often have to clear my market cache/data, which works sometimes. So I called google market play to see if there were any issues in my account, and the rep said there was none. His theory was that there might be some issues with the custom ROM (ARHD) I installed, since I only started having problems after I installed it. Anyway, I think the only solution for now is the clear cache data approach, or better yet, hope that our ROM builders are able to address the issue.
As an aside, my ARHD is working perfectly, except for this market issue (cum hoc, ergo propter hoc?)
I also have a custom rom installed and had this same issue, I resolved it by uninstalling updates for the google play store app, and then it worked...at least for now.
I recently started messing with various roms and themes when this issue popped up for me. I searched the web and tried the various methods (removing gmail account, not updating, etc) with little luck. After hours of frustration, I finally found out what was causing the issue.
I was using Titanium Backup to back up all my files and restore them as I was flashing between the various roms, that was the trouble maker.
When you back up your files before a flash, make sure you do not back up the google/play store. So, if you are having problems, try to go trough these steps and it should fix it.
Back up all your files (minus play store) in Titanium Backup.
Reboot phone into clockwork.
Reset Factory Data x3
Wipe Cache x3
Install your rom from zip
Once your phone is booted up again, do not enable Wifi (for now)
Do not add a Google Account
Go to the market and download Titanium (will prompt to add Google account, do so)
Exit the Market
Go back to the market (it should now have auto updated to play store)
Try to download another app, any app, it should work
You can now use Titanium to restore all your apps and data, but make sure that you do not restore anything with the market/play store in it.
I did this yesterday, restored all my games, contacts, text messages, etc and it has worked fine for me ever since.
I am running slickMOD Supreme with the Darkside Kernel.
Hope this helped at least a few of you as I know how big of a headache this was for me.
All is good now. However, it does still happen with a couple apps, free or paid. I can't remember which ones but it gives the processing purchase error. Very rare albeit still present.

Aloha;
Sounds like an ID mismatch here. Happens whenever you do a factory reset or change ROMs. I'm guessing that the ID is a hash of the phone and the ROM, maybe. Anyway, the device ID is what ties the phone to your Google account and apps use this to determine whether you paid for the installed app or run as a freeware version.
Titanium now offers the choice of reverting the id back to the old one or ignore the change. I prefer NOT to change the ID back as I've ran into more id mismatch problems down the road than just keeping the new ID. I too use Titanium to backup my apps and data, and use it to quickly restore my apps and data to a new installation on my phone (whether it be a factory reset or a new ROM, or even a reinstallation of the current ROM). Whenever I have a misbehaving app that reverts back to the freeware version or complains about licensing problems, I then uninstall the app and then reinstall the app directly from the Play Market. That has always fixed the problem for ME. Your Mileage May Vary, which mean while it works for me, it MAY not work for you. Keep that in mind before you start biatchin that it doesn't work.
Oh, yeah, also try rebooting after the reinstallation. If nothing else, Dalvik and Cache!

I've run into this a few times after doing a restore from a backup or swapping ROMs. Best way I can fix it is go to Google Services Framework, stop it, clear the data. Next go to Google Play, stop it. Uninstall any updates, then clear the data. Reboot phone. Go to Google Play again, accept terms, and now it should work. Just some advice.

It's typically under all software. You have Downloads, SD card, All and its in there somewhere. In AOSP or AOKP you have to go under downloaded and it's in there
This thread is to provide the solution for Google play store download error - 921.
Today I got the error while downloading the apps from Google Play Store. The error message is
'Error - Update for "xxxxx" could not be downloaded due to an error. (921)'
I've searched the forum and found some useful information. Because the thread was belonging to different phone, I wanted to post the information with some more details.
If you see the same error, then follow the steps -
1. Menu > Settings > Personal > Accounts and sync > click on your google account (email)
2. click 'Remove account'. Don't worry, it's not deleting your physical account. Account related information is still saved in Google.
3. Launch Google Play Store again
4. When asked, use existing account to create the google account.
5. Provide your existing google account information (email & password)
6. try again to download
Based on my experience, whenever I got the 921 error, cleaning cache and data for google play store app does not work.
Another work around is creating a second google account. But I believe many people do not want to maintain multiple account on one phone.
(attached) screenshot of error 921.
First png uploading failed. Try to upload thru 2nd post.
Error 921 download error..
I could fix it by uninstalling the google play..
I tired to do this, but I get
"This account is required by some applications. You can only remove it by resetting the phone to factory defaults (which deletes all your personal data) You do that in the Settings application, under Privacy"
Actually doing that is what started my problem. My google contacts would not sync
so I reset by going to Settings/Privacy, now I can't get google play/market to download anything, and I constantly get a google talk authentication failed message. ( I don't nor have I ever knowingly used google talk)
remove and clear the data/cache for the play store and uninstall the update for it. it should roll back to a version from before and once you reopen it and it downloads again it should be ok. I had this same problem and have done that and so far with the newest market I've not had one single problem after doing that. YMMV however.
I do not have option to clear data or clear cache greyed out, I will try the uninstall update..
no go, same thing only now the message is simply "could not be downloaded due to an error"
is your phone rooted? and which rom are you using?
Again, just removing data/cache would not solve the problem many times.
Did you try to create a second account?
yeah, I can't clear data or cache as the buttons are not available.
it is rooted I am on GB EL30 with EL30 modem
i did not try a second account, really don't want a second account, i guess i can to test it though.
probably do a hard reset tonight from cm

Many google apps are sharing the info thru Google Framework service. Did you try to remove data/cache for this app also?
Doing factory resetting would be the easiest way but sometimes taking long time to recover the everything. So, it depends on your preference.
If the data & cache fields are grayed out, then it means that there's nothing to be cleared.
yes, the buttons for data and cache are also unavailable in framework also.
I did the factory reset from Privacy, that's what started the 921 problem.
i guess I will from cm tonight, that don't work I guess I'll put it back to ec05 and let it update then try again
got tired of messing with it, used odin to overwrite el30. so far so good. email push is working, contacts are syncing, and I can download from market
it's working now! thank you!
Likewise, OP's steps worked for me Thanks.
I googled this issue (I have a different device, obviously) and found this thread. Pointing me at the Google Framework services fixed my issue, so thank you!! I use TB and just restored the Google Framework data (I'd just wiped data and didn't want to have to go through the play store song and dance like ALWAYS) and voila! One reboot later (I'd already rebooted five times before, what was one more?) my apps download without an issue. This would probably resolve it for other users as well. Thank you again!!

Remove the account and readd it.
Hey my little cuties. I noticed something it the screenshot. You have the warning triangle up top. Use the pulldown to grant permissions. Google apps sometimes request it out of nowhere.

That was not the permission thing. Actually the little triangle was for the error message on top.
Actually I've seen the case like you explained but in my case there was no waring nor notification. Just app was't worked. In sometimes, if the app does not work, then we need to pull down the notification area, and check if there's anything (permission request).
OP's directions worked for me as well.
HTC Sensation.
OP's directions worked for me as well.
HTC Evo 4G running CM9.
Now how do I clear up the 942 error.
If I helped you out in any way please thank me. Thanks.
This is quite annoying
Every time I turn on my phone, all of the apps that start when my phone boots force close. I'm not able to send a text or even use the dialer. I'm able to browse my home screen, but when I try to run an app, either it will run for a bit and then force close, or it will close as soon as I open it. The battery I have is bad, which results in my phone turning off randomly, I know it's a bad battery because I've had this issue before and replacing the battery solved it.
Today I tried to use soundhound and while it was "listening" the phone decided to turn off. No surprise. However, when I rebooted it, none of my apps were able to run. I get the "Unfortunately, x has stopped working..." and am forced to close the app. I'm not able to do anything on my phone. I can still receive texts, I'm unable to respond to them. I should be getting a new battery in the mail any day now, and I'm hoping it will solve the issue.
I'm running cm9 beta 1. I've cleared the cache and the d-cache.
Could the battery be the cause of this? Any suggestions?
I'm gonna try to temp boot to EL29. Mobile ODIN doesn't work, am I able to use ODIN 1.85 on my computer instead? I would install the direct boot v3 file under the PDA option right?
EDIT: The apps seemed to have worked when under a temp boot of EL29. I'm gonna do a fresh install to see if that does the trick
I doubt its the battery. Maybe a corrupted install. Download files to pc if possible then xfer to phone. Verify md5 before flashing. You can get software from sourceforge if needed.
The fresh install did the trick. Still not sure how this happened, but whateva. I don't need a new phone
That's good sometimes you just get a bad flash or flash a mod that just messes things up. I have flashed things that worked perfectly for others and my phone got jacked. Its all part of the game. I keep a recent one click on my laptop just in case.
It sounds like when you installed your rom you forgot to wipe data/factory rest or when you restored app backups you installed data with system apps from a TWiz rom. When restoring backed up apps you can usually restore data for system apps from TWiz > TWiz or AOSP/CM > AOSP/CM as long as they are on the same build ie ICS > ICS or JB>JB etc. You can restore data for user apps safely regardless of rom they were backed up on. But the FC issue comes from incompatible system data it screws up the system process and causes apps to FC when it tries to load the data
