I can't seem to get Google now to work anymore. It keeps crashing as soon as I give it a voice command.
For some reason now, it seems like my phone lost compatibility with lots of apps. I can't update top the latest versions of the apps and download apps directly through playstore app. On my laptop, the playstore site says the apps are compatible and "downloading" but I get nothing on my phone.
I ve done a clean install of the latest update and cleared data for the individual apps that I've had problems with but I'm still not seeing any changes.
Any idea what's going on here? Is this something everyone else is experiencing?
(Didn't want to post this in the Rom thread since these issues are not just about the Rom, i think)

I've been running his ROM for a long time and never experienced this issue... It might be your play store or gapps. I would download and flash his gapps again see if that fixes it.

Are you using a different dpi?

It's the gapps that you flashed.. he posted an earlier build shortly after which fixed the issue (just have to update Google Search app in the Play Store). This was posted in the OP.
I'd probably fully wipe but at least system and both caches and reflash the latest ROM and gapps posted.

I am. I changed it by editing the build.prop file. but even if i change it back to normal dpi, i still have the same issues. i just did a clean install of 5.5.13b update and still having same issues. im back at normal dpi.
is there a way to fix this?
explain clean install. i would recommend wiping data cache, dalvik, & formatting /system, /data & /media then flashing ROM/gapps. completely fresh start. what recovery do you use and what device was the version for (d2att, etc)?

clear data from play store and google services framework after reverting to stock dpi. then find a multidpi play store and flash it. then you can freely change the dpi.

Hi XDA, long time lurker, first time poster.
So I rooted my droid incredible yesterday evening. Everything was dandy- I installed CM7. However, this afternoon i stopped being able to use the market application - it would require a force close - both the market app and downloader. I decided to wipe everything, reinstall, and re root and do it again. I installed CM7 again, market wouldn't work. I then did a full wipe, factory reset, cache reset, davlik reset, and installed the newest nightly build of CM7. Still couldn't download from app marketplace.
I now just installed SkyRaider 4.0. I still can't download from the google marketplace on my phone. I can, however, install from the amazon app store, and when I use google's web install interface I can install the google marketplace apps from there (this also works for appbrain).
--I can use the google marketplace and appbrain marketplace on my computer, just not on my phone --
Clearly, the default android marketplace app doesn't work on my phone (and consequently appbrain as it goes through that).
How can I fix this?
Thanks,
Brian

Reboot into Clockwork recovery, there is a fix permissions options. If I remember right it is in the advanced section. Run it. It will not hurt anything it will just run script that will run through the files and fix the permission settings on them.
Fixing permissions didn't eliminate the problem.

Sounds right. Anything dependent on touchwiz wont work. You're likely to get s lot of incompatible errors because of the changes in the density as well. Running tablet mode comes at a price. you can just sideload the ones it says are incompatible or get them from blackmart.

This is just taking a shot in the dark but maybe something changed in the build.prop. Try pulling the build.prop file from the last version of P.A and replacing the one in /system. Then resync w/google
Hello everyone,
I decided to create this Q&A thread for my CM10.1 builds. General discussion for the ROM or questions/troubleshooting can go here. Not every issue is necessarily a ROM bug. Actual bug reports with logcats or kmsg or whatever's needed for the bug should still remain in the development thread.
I wanted to try this out to prevent people with less experience or fewer posts feel alienated from not being able to post in the ROM thread. This thread is open for the community to help each other with issues. I've started a short FAQ to prevent questions from being asked repeatedly and also to help everyone out.
FAQ
Q: How do I flash this ROM? Any special steps?
A: If coming from a different ROM, it's recommended to do a factory reset prior to flashing as well as wiping /system.
Q: How do I update from builds? Do I need to wipe?
A: Flash the new build in recovery. If you're using an ext4 no data limit mod be sure to flash it after the ROM before rebooting to prevent any loss of data or missing apps issues.
Q: Do I need to re-flash gapps when I update builds?
A: No you do not as they get backed up and restored by CM provided you don't wipe system before flashing the ROM.
Q: What kernel is included with the ROM?
A: This ROM ships with my latest incredikernel so there's no reason to flash a specific kernel after the ROM unless you want a different kernel/older version of incredikernel.
Q: I got notified in goo manager that a gapps update is available. Is it safe to flash?
A: no. The system partition is too small on the incredible and they won't flash properly. Use my gapps instead from my main ROM thread.
Q: Why does my camera show weird lines and graphic corruption?
A: I'm not 100% sure on the cause but it is most likely driver related. Every JB ROM has this issue. Use a third party camera like Camera ICS for now.
Q: The camera recording is so choppy. Is there anything I can do about it?
A: The performance of the GPU in the Droid Incredible is very limited and Jellybean was never meant to run on this phone. As a result, some of the methods used to get things to work are a bit hacky which can explain the general graphics glitching.
Q: Will there ever be official CM 10.1 nightlies?
A: No, the CM team has stated they won't bring the qsd8k devices to ICS or later which includes devices such as the Nexus One, Droid Incredible, and Evo 4g.
Q: HELPP!!! I lost the advanced reboot menu. What do I do?
A: There has been a change in CM to disable the Advanced Reboot Menu. Fortunately, it can be enabled in developer options. However, it will only be active while the device is unlocked.
Q: I can't adb into my device. What to do?
A: Seems to be a new issue now but once you enable adb network you can get in via adb even over USB.
Q: I get a process system has stopped responding on boot.
A: Select wait and it will go away. This is a known issue but not consistent. It seems to happen more frequently when using a theme chooser theme as the systemui components are swapped out on the fly.
Q: I want to flash the files for offline voice dictation but the mod says I need 34 MB free and I can't seem to free enough space.
A: Users have reporting the following can be removed and replaced with play store replacements. Unfortunately due to the limited partition size of /system (250MB), there's a lot of stripping of system apps needed to make enough room for the offline files. (There should not be any need to do this now due as of the 4/5 build and gapps)
Trebuchet (Nova), Calculator (Calulations) Apollo (in the Play Store), Exchange and email (Aqua Mail), CM File Manager (FX Explorer), and the accessibility features like talk back.
Also there are about 7Mb of ringtones in /system/media/audio/ringtones. I'd recommend keeping only the ones you want.
Nice FAQ so far. Feel free to take a look at my CM7.2 thread, which had a lot of tips or tricks. I had a bunch, and I can't really remember if they'd pertain to CM10.1.

I'd throw in wipe /system as well. That's a common overlooked step, and without it, there's generally a lot of issues.
google play store issues and google framework services
Hello All
For some reason my phone is only letting me use facebook or foursqure with the google services framework frozen, with sd-maid google now will not do voice search ether with the google framework on or off, I have had this problem for the last month and nothing besides turning the google thing off works. Is there anything more I could do? This problem all so causes google play do crash when ever opened or run.
Thanks to any help!
I only flashed once so far, and back on 7.2 for the moment (a few of my apps didn't work) so figure this is a good place for the question.
How do you get Google Now from the lock screen and from the Launcher? Obviously it's fairly easy to get Google Voice Search working (with it reading aloud answers to you) but the actual Cards and stuff that automatically find things for you.

The only way to get Google Now on the lockscreen is to manually add a shortcut to it using CM's built in lockscreen shortcut options. To access it from the launcher you launch the Google Search app.

My advice is a factory reset in recovery. It's most likely from incompatibilities between the system framework and apps and it's data. Did you do the wipe when installing CM10.1?
Keep in mind a data wipe will erase contacts, call logs, text messages. Contacts that are not backed up to gmail will be lost. Games that save data locally will also be lost. It's pretty common sense stuff but just warning you.
I know when I accidentally flashed CM7.2 and even once I flashed CM10.1 again before booting, things were messed up and I couldn't access the play store.
Re: [Q&A][UNOFFICIAL] Tiny's CM10.1 Inc builds (NIGHTLY)
I will try that, I do not remember if I did wipe or not but I did back up my apps and data using my backup root and it restored all the apps and data so could that have been the first problem ?

I always restore user apps and data without issue. If you restore app data for system apps you're going to run into issues, especially when crossing ROM versions.

Is it generally safe to run the cpu at 1113MHz? I seem to get a smoother experience running it that high but I don't want to overheat it.
Also, I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.0. non-touch. Am I able to upgrade to the touch version or am I stuck with my current one?

This has been reported in the ROM development page. Any specific apps? YouTube is known to occasionally force close on boot and system can report the process not responding with a wait and ok option.

1113mhz should be safe. It doesn't run at the max 100% of the time anyways.
I haven't messed with the CWM touch builds but if there's an unofficial CWM touch build for the Inc I don't see anything that would prevent it from working.
It is a lot of time just on the settings or browser thanks

Yes iam using LiquidSmooth Rom,also tried other roms and it has the same problem for some reason,is there any option to enable it or its from ROM or Build itself?
Or it could be a very simple explaination that the App either is not updated to Kitkat or does not like rooted devices.

In app manager, try clearing data on all Google apps, most importantly, play store, gms, gsf, gmail and any others you think might be closely tied to them. Reboot and reset up. If that doesn't work, try again but also uninstall updates. Reboot and give it time to auto update them again.

Check in your build.prop to make sure your device model is correctly entered. Its just a guess but is what I plan to try first when I get a chance to look into it in my rom.

Best I can think of is to nandroid, odin back to stock with latest firmware, then flash your rom clean and try it that way. If it still doesnt work try again on stock touchwiz. This way youll know if its something wrong with your account, or something wrong with your rom and data. Also, from your computer, manually log out of any google services.
Restoring the nandroid data backup will likely cause it to happen again. Mine started working again on its own, so im not sure what the cause was...

No it's not those.. It consists of Google back up, sync, play store, and other things, but I think it'll be better to just wipe the system, reflash ROM, and then flash kk gapps.. You should be up and running by then

This. Anytime you are moving to a new base (in this case Android 4.3 to Android 4.4) your best option is to do a full wipe and fresh install. You can backup and restore your app data to the new version, just not your system settings.
The CM installer tried to outsmart this but if it doesn't work perfectly, just do a full wipe and fresh flash.
However, if you want to try flashing a KK Gapps package, I'm sure it won't brick your phone. So it's worth a shot to see if that fixes it. It will only waste 30 seconds of your time if it doesn't.

No. I said that WON'T brick it. That's why it's worth a shot.
No risk. High potential reward.
You might also try using Titanium to manually uninstall all google apps and services before flashing the KitKat Gapps package.
