Problems getting Google Maps back

After installing the latest versions on top of the previous I cannot get Google Maps back.

It downloads but when trying to install I'm getting an error message saying something like "Incompatible with other applications which uses same common user-ID".

What is this?? :confused:

FYI: I installed the version with the Danish and German language pack (don't know if that is in any way relevant)
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Eh ? This is strange. Sorry about this. I will look at it tonight and if I cannot fix it, reinclude it in the build.

Sorry for this ...

Who's using this rom, can tell me how's in terms of performance, battery use, stability, issues, etc... ? I'm considering switching for long term but I'm not sure if it's ready yet for it.
[Desire Android Development] xepap:
No worries. Just didn't know if there was a simple workaround for this that I wasn't aware of. Keep up the good work.

In general I find this ROM quite stable (works even better for me than some latest versions of MJ's X-PART which had a lot of forced closures (at least for me). Even though it feels a bit slower, but I guess I could try to run the Supercharger script. Haven't tried that yet.

This project is certainly moving in the right direction and I have no plans of switching back to XJ's MIUI - Unless I can't get Google Maps back ;)

Keep up the good work!!
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
The shared user id thing shouldn't happen unless the old included one was resigned (in which case all market updates will fail), or any apps which use same uid are resigned (anyone can decompile and see what the shareduserid is in the manifest?). Either way something has been done incorrectly.

So its either wipe data or if its re-included in the rom, be prepared for market updates not to work.

If someone can check the key the old one and market one are signed with, they should match (but from the error it suggests they don't for some reason ).

Can anyone confirm a clean flash will allow downloading maps from the market?
[Desire Android Development] xepap:
Did a complete wipe and flashed ROM. Still couldn't install Google MAPS!

Errormessage: 'unknown errorcode when installing this application "-110"' (my quick translation from Danish error message - might vary from the one in English)

:(
[Desire Android Development] marange:
I made a small install script which installs the Maps.apk in system/app. This is a (temporary) fix until Lennox and I have found the reason why it goes wrong.

To use it, copy it to the SD-card, use recovery and install it (just like you installed the ROM). Please again, make sure to have a backup beforehand. I only tested it on my stock install and there it works. I just hope it works for everyone else. So ... use with caution :).

Marange
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi,

Thanks for the report. I had some trouble to reproduce it, but got a reboot after open/closing the menu when in the app drawer. So something is going wrong there. I will look into it and hopefully figure out why it does this. Hopefully I find something.

Bye,

I've seen SGS3 MIUI supported officialy on MIUI.US :confused:
[Desire Android Development] pawan1993:
Thanks Marange for the dedication you have put in this rom. In my opinion it was one of the best ICS roms out there :)
[Desire Android Development] blackhawk_LA:
I would better suggest to get a Motorola Razr MAXX :D

Is a great and exclusive phone, with a great community to support its hard development. A true defiance.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
And the new phone is ... ;)

Hi,

Thanks for all the kind words. It is clear that the desire community is one of the kindest.

Also thanks for all the suggestions. But the phone I got is another one ;) ... I got myself a BIG "phone". I went for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. One of the reasons I went for it is the very huge screen. Because one of my hobbies is drawing, I want to use the big screen as a sketch pad. And maybe in the future I start tinkering again with MIUI on the new phone. When I start to get some spare time again :(. Work is a necessity, but costs much to much time at the moment.

I will keep lurking around ...

Marange
[Desire Android Development] jezzaaaa:
Nice choice - probably what I'd get if I had the spare cash. For the rest of us still trying to keep our Desires going, can you recommend another ICS or JB ROM that's being as well maintained as this was?

No, it is a completely dofferent phone, htc desire is about 3years older than desire vt:eek:

[Desire Android Development] lman00:
Hi, I know this rom is discontinued, but I still prefer ICS roms to JB due to speed. This rom also works very nicely.

I have one issue though. I cannot install Google Play service (hangouts, youtube):

Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID

logcat:

Package com.google.android.gms has no signatures that match those in shared user com.google.uid.shared; ignoring!

Anybody came across this? I have tried a few solution I found on xda

* updating to latest version of market, then delete data for google framework and market

* flashing signed ICS gapps and deleting dalvik + cache

* editing application.xml - removing uid.shared

None of it worked.

Any idea how to solve this?
[Desire Android Development] biron_w:
Flashed and everything works fine. Only problem is that I didn't install the dictionary so my phone hasn't got one now! Is there a flashable zip anywhere for the dictionary?

HTC Desire

ROM ICS for desire by Sandvold
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
hi

Hi marange, i see that you are already working very hard to play catch up with sandvold releases.

He has released beta 0.8 with cam FULLY working..... i know you already know this, so maybe you can leave working to patch 0.7.....

By the way,

sms app caused two random reboots today after i updated to 2.5.11 today...... IMPORTANT thing is, there was not a single random reboot in my previous two weeks on last version.... (apart from GO launcher and disk usage app)

If i can reproduce the sms reboot issue, ill post logcat.... otherwise ill bear with it....

Regards
[Desire Android Development] l0minus:
The old one (from the old rom) Androidmanifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<manifest android:sharedUserId="com.google.android.apps.maps" android:versionCode="605001203" android:versionName="6.5.0" package="com.google.android.apps.maps"

xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

I guess you mean this, otherwise I can`t find a key in this file.
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
hi

hi marange,

I just backed up this rom and tried 0.8 ics...... i got to say, that

1. your rom on .5.4 base seems as fast as that version..... i thouhght i should give it a try for 2-3 days but stock ics apps are so cheaply made (sorry google),

2. miui and sense apps are much much better in responsiveness and visual quality plus features.... I mean, see the stock ics mms.apk, no multiselect to delete sms, takes 5 SECONDS to load my 1500 sms, the dialer is SOOOO GINGERBREAD with just swipe to change screen, no improvement.........

3. By these arguments, in no way do i mean to offend sandvold or evervolv n co. (how can i !!!! :D) but i am a little angry at google..... the ROM itself is very bugfree, smooth and very stable.....

Great job devs..... you make our lives so interesting.... hope to see great updates marange/lenny...

Regards
[Desire Android Development] trinity1:
didn't check deeply: how can I do that? need setcpu or there's a menu into the rom?

---------- Post added at 08:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 PM ----------

Hi Marange. I read what you did to make room for those using data++ and cm7r2 hboots. May I ask WHAT exactly you removed (or planned not to load with amarulz) to accomodate the rom into cm7r2? I know about maps, but I'm pretty sure there is something else that amarulz won't load if detects a cm7r2 (the rom is 122MB, cannot go entirely onto cm7r2...)
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi Yasir,

Thanks for the note on 0.8. Had not seen it yet. I will see if I can port over the camera. And the youtube fix.

And sorry about the reboots. Maybe an issue in the 2.5.11 codebase or some incompatiblity between the 0.5.4 and 2.5.11 codebases. I don't think it is in my patches (there are only 2 patches and one was already in 2.4.27). I will look into it and see what I can find.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Really, no need for sorry.... You are already doing us a favour.... Hope to see even smoother version with next release....

By the way, camera is fully working for me..... No issues...... And I also reinstalled latest rom, stock kernel, performance governor, no reboot with sms as of yet.... I'll keep looking....
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
That's the shared uid, and from that it means the maps included was resigned (was it the mod to enable navigation?)

The key needs to be extracted differently but I don't need it.
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
@marange

your best option is to add the mod and normal maps as an option in installer, and make sure you use the same method as for the aokp keyboard in updater script so it only goes to system if its on stock hboot (so: if mod, if stock (install to system) else (install to data)endif , end if; and the same for original maps)

Just means users who had mod forced before but want market version will have to wipe data.
[Desire Android Development] Boyeah04:
Marange,

Along with implementing a complete new build for 0.8, Sandvold has also released an update zip that has all the changes from 0.7 to 0.8 which can be flashed over the top of 0.7. Therefore you may be able to just include this in your thread for people to update to 0.8 also.
[Desire Android Development] shahmohamed:
Hi Marange,

All ok on your rom and im very gratefull to you. the only things that bother me is the carrier name. it state in my phone is No Service instead of the carrier name. any known solution on this? thanks!
[Desire Android Development] biron_w:
I have the same problem with touchpal. Every time I reboot it's disappeared.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
This is so very strange. I also use touchpal and I don't have that problem. I use version 4.8.6 and I am on stock hboot and LX-D2X by Lennox. I cannot imagine anything that would uninstall touchpal. Especially after a reboot. Are there more touchpal users out there who do/don't have the same problem ?

Marange
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Does your phone have service and is it only show the text, or do you also have no service ?

Marange
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Marange, I install touchpal, it works.... The after reboot, I saw /data/app folder, and there were two 4.3 mb touchpal apk's there, but both looked corrupt..... Hope this helps

Heres what i did in proper steps:

1. installed touchpal..... no moving to Sd card.... all on internal....

2. used it in sms, working fine...

3. check in /data/app folder, there was touchpal apk with PROPER ICON and size around 4.3 mb..

4. reboot desire...

5. touchpal gone..... checked /data/app folder, there were TWO apks with same size (4.3mb) for touchpal, but both icon was corrupt, i mean not ORIGINAL icon......i tried running both files, but parsing error or something like that.....

What i think is that after reboot, the system is linking to touchpal apk in a wrong way or something like that, maybe you can figure out......

by the way, i didnt wipe dalvik cache during reboot.....

Regards
[Desire Android Development] soronk:
hi marange

tried several times to install the new build. first i couldn't restore any apps in the german/danish version. either with stock or data++ hboot.

now I've flashed the "english" version with stock hboot, PC APPS2SD and I'm very happy!

only little thing I'm missing: the lockscreen doesn't appear, when I'm choosing screen lock (e.g. pattern unlock). i haven't enabled the option "Display screen password interface directly".

thx for the great work!
[Desire Android Development] shahmohamed:
Thanks for replying,

Yes, phone get services and i can make calls, messaging and also web browsing. the only thing is the carrier name is "No Services".

Brilliant job Marange! Loving this ROM.

Quick question. How do I get it so that the lock screen comes up before the password screen. At the moment, when I unlock, it goes straight to the pass code screen.

Thanks!
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Marange.

Sandvold says new adreno libs out, meaning better hardware acceleration.. ....I think, marange, you should wait a while before selecting base rom ...just a suggestion.. .by the way, can you please link modified s2e to aroma? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22244462

Its a very useful script.. ..easy to use, with gui interface.. ...think about it.. ..works just fine.. ..I'll keep testing it anyway.
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Marange,

Wanted to share this, Even after s2e script... Touchpal gets corrupted after reboot..... But, all other apps are on ext4 and working just fine...i have 150mb worth of apps data and apks on ext4 using that script.....:D
[Desire Android Development] soronk:
how do install touchpal? through market or as an .apk? maybe you have choose another installation method.:rolleyes:
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
dear, I have stock installation....i installed touch pal from market.....i have mentioned this before...... You can see a few posts ago, a user has same problem as mine....
[Desire Android Development] trinity1:
marange (or whoever can answer)

is there any in-built app-option to change governor-cpu speed or I need setcpu?

not sure whether anybody already noticed: there's any sync icon showing that apps are syncing...

then, I cannot save my local profile onto contacts: I can add all fields, but when I press OK, the system doesn't respond...
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
use no frills cpu from market, its free, and it allows changing governor and scheduler too......
[Desire Android Development] trinity1:
I'll do... Any suggestions about freqs/governor?
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
I use performance governor with noop scheduler.... 998, 245
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
Just fyi voting for the desire is a waste of time. One rule which miui are enforcing fully is only devices with official ics from the manufacturer are getting miui v4

And we all know the Desire isn't getting ics from HTC.
[Desire Android Development] moss20:
desire didn't get GB officially,only ruu and some said that that release is not a full GB rom (don't know if this is right) but we get some good gb roms...

I think miui team is just waiting for a good ics base for starting the development..

Solution for Google maps

I did alter the first post to include a solution for the Google Maps problem, but for people who only read the new posts ;) :

SOLUTION: To fix the problem, you'll need to make a backup from the system+data with titanium backup. Make sure to backup everything (and make a NAND backup just be be sure). Do a complete wipe(!) and install the 2.5.11 (without the maps). Reboot and re-install titanium backup and Maps from the market. Then restore everything back to the phone. Because Maps is already installed, titanium will not try to install the modded version. After the restore, reboot again and Maps should be the market version.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] trinity1:
google play doesn't open. tried to wipe cache (of play AND from recovery). no way.

no logcat sorry
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
Sorry, but no, they're not. I'm on the beta team and in direct contact with them, so trust me, it's not happening. Thats why they made PatchRom, so those devices who don't get ICS officially can still receive MIUI v4, thanks to the excellent work of people like Marange :).

They never had that rule for GB, they were based on AOSP builds like CM7. Nowadays they base their rom on stock roms.

I'm not saying MIUI v4 won't ever run perfectly on the Desire (in fact I'm quite certain it will, once ICS itself is 100%), just that they won't be releasing it officially. Even if they did, it would be pretty much identical as this rom anyway, but with less optimisations, no aroma scripts, only stock hboot, etc etc. So I would be using this one anyway :)

Today in the morning had a BSOD. So i was late to work.

Rom was flashed after clean wipe with standart install settings.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi,

This is a problem with the kernel. It has something to do with the default governor (ondemand). Which kernel were you running (if you installed with standard, then you have the stock kernel) ? The tiamat/tobby_d kernels are much better in that respect (but I must note that I did have a BSOD once or twice with the tobby_d kernel also, but it is much better then the stock kernel). A few postings above, somebody posted about a app to change the governor (looked it up, its: No-frills CPU control). I ran with 'conservative' for a long time without any BSOD.

Marange
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Very strange. Why would google play not open ? i never ever had this problem. What hboot do you run ? I really cannot think of any reason why Google play would not run. Does someone else have the same issue ?

Marange
[Desire Android Development] sudkcoce:
That is to be expected from a BETA rom... If you need a stable rom, download a stable one...

I had it, but I flashed latest version on top of previous one, wiping cache + dalvik. Solution was to clear data from google play and google services framework. Rebooted, then it worked.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Could you check the name of the network for me ? Go to settings > Mobile networks and click on "access point names". Which APN's are shown with which names ? I think MIUI get the names from the APN.
[Desire Android Development] ph87:
Hey Marange,...

did you noticed my Post on Page 27? It can be very important for people who use the DA_DE version!!!;)
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
The names aren't from the apns. The spns-conf (something like that, its in /system/etc) can override based on mcc, but I don't think that would be the issue.

Perhaps you could try adding an override in there based on his mcc and see if it works and displays that instead of no service (you can find the mcc through the apns)

Edit 2: Seems the file isn't there for me? Maybe was only on gb? Odd.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hey,

I did notice your post, but did not yet found a solution. But I am glad you found the culprit. I shall look what the differences between the two apk's are. The only thing changes between the DA_DE and the stock version, is some extra resources files. Maybe there is something amiss in one of the resource files.

Thanks for the help.
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi Yasir,

Thanks for the hint. I looked at it and it would be a lot of work to include it in the installer. So at the moment I would like to concentrate on the global stability of the build and not add more things to it. And I am afraid that it can cause problems when not used correctly. So I am a bit reluctant.

But thanks anyway.
[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Hi Marange,

no issues, ill post a link in general thread for ics s2e... By the way, did you find any reason for keyboard errors? Go keyboard, touchpal, swiftkey beta v3, all are not working, either they crash n close, or cause hard reboot..... By the way, when I tested those keyboards, I had no script installed, all on internal option of aroma, stock hboot, performance governor, noop scheduler..... (I flashed s2e after those tests).... I think you can easily replicate these errors but ill still post logcats.......

By the way, any luck in fixing go launcher issue?.

Thanks for response and trying to fix.....

[Desire Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Hi Marange,

Can I use boot.img from any ics ROM and use on this ? Actually I want to try sandvold kernel when he releases it...... Do I have to extract files from it and place in Miui? Please guide...

Regards
[Desire Android Development] marange:
Hi Yasir,

I did not try this, but I think it should work. You only need to remember to copy the /system/lib/modules directory also. These hold the modules used by the kernel. If you forget these you will probably have no wifi (and maybe some other issues).

Marange
[Desire Android Development] marange:
I will look at it this weekend and see if I can reproduce it. The only reason that I can image for the keyboard problems, that it has something to do with the setup. Maybe some memory issue. And that this makes it very, very difficult to debug. It is not that I can look at the source code and run them in a debugger :). And my knowlegde of the internal workings on android is very limited (at the moment. I am learning on the job ;) ).

The launcher issue is something which is not setup related, because I can reproduct the reboot also. It happens when it closes the menu (which does not look like a MIUI style menu) and then it looks like it gets into trouble at the end when the menu is almost gone. I can't figure out, if it is a go launcher issue, a ICS issue, a MIUI issue or a combination of these. I will keep looking if I can figure out what happens.
