[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niksilver:
Hi there

I hope someone can help me or give me a pointer. The short story is that Google Play has reverted to the Android Market (v2.3.4) and I can't download anything from the Market.

The longer story is this...

I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, bought sim-free over a year ago, running Android 2.3.3. Yesterday I had a problem with Google Play not being able to download some apps. This was clearly wrong: I had 1.5GB free of 16GB. In the course of trying to fix this (ha!), and trying to find recovery mode, I borked the device further. Google Play reverted to Android Market v2.3.4, and some apps got messed up in random ways and consistently crashed. I uninstalled some of the crashing apps, but I still cannot download anything from the Market in order to reinstall them.

I've cleared cache and cleared data for various apps and services: Market, Download Manager, Google Play Services (odd that that's still there), Google Services Framework, and maybe some others.

The problem with the Market is that when I touch to download an app it readies itself for the download (moving diagonal lines on the progress bar) and then the progress bar disappears as if it's finished. There is no download, and certainly no install, but no error message either. On the other hand my web-based Google Play account says I've just downloaded it. And meanwhile my web-based Google Play account says there are no devices associated with my account.

Given the situation with Market, I can't even download something like MarketFixer which may help. I can sideload apks, but I can't find a (legitimate-looking) apk like MarketFixer to download.

I've never rooted my device, so I don't expect to have to do that to fix this. Before do a factory reset, does anyone have any ideas?

Many thanks

Nik

Update: Solved in thread below

ah darn!! i thought i could help you, up until the point where you said you didn't root :-p. If you rooted then you could just install the latest version of google play
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niksilver:
Thanks for even thinking of that, dragid10.

Hmm... theoretically, if I routed, where would I get the latest version of Google Play from? I can't access the Market, after all.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nsmith4:
There are a few threads in the apps forum here on XDA one is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1932489

I also don't think you need to be rooted to install it. Just make sure you turn on unknown sources from settings(either under applications or security)

Also have you tried uninstalling updates for the market or removing your Google account from your phone and re-adding it.

Edit:Updated thread URL original one was a closed thread.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niksilver:
nsmith4, thank you. That's moved me a bit forward. I couldn't find a Google Play apk, and now I've got Google Play back on my device, and the web version of Google Play knows about my device again.

(I did try to delete my Google account and it refused me. It said it was needed by some applications and should do a factory reset instead!)

So now it seems I'm back to my original problem: I (still) can't download any apps from Google Play because it says (wrongly) there's insufficient space on device. I shall keep looking for an apk of MarketFixer or similar. This problem is now the same as the one reported here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1436188

although of course I cannot download MarketFix to help me fix the market.

Update: That install of Google Play didn't stick. When I rebooted the phone it took me through the Android initiation process (asked for Google username and password) and Market was back in place of Play.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gagdude:
Looks like a problem with factory resetting every time you restart. That is a bigger problem. Google Play will automatically update itself (all update to com.android.vending will).

Try taking the ICS update (if you haven't already), you need a fresh install of the OS. Or you can root and install a ROM. Same thing
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] post-mortem:
You say you "borked the device further". The question is, what happened? What did you do, and what got borked, in what way? If you don't even know, then it will be difficult or impossible to repair. The easiest and fastest solution will be to install a fresh ROM, like Gagdude said.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niksilver:
gagdude, post-mortem: No, I didn't keep a careful record of what I did. The "borking" is a combination of the problems listed above. I'm going to do a factory reset and upgrade to ICS, as suggested, thanks. Will keep you posted.

Hi!

In all JB roms I have try till now, even with oficial not branded one, it is necesary to have roaming active if you provider is a Virtual Operator and you get always connected with and "R" over signal bars.

In previous ICS Roms it was not like that, my virtual operator (Jazztel in Spain, using Orange Spain) could be used without roaming and I never get this stupid and confusing "R".

Any one has a solution for that?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalvinH:
Which CM10 version are you using?

I tried several and auto rotate worked on all of them (it is one of those things I am using all the time).

Right now I don't have CM10 installed, but I think there were two places where you could activate autorotate... Maybe you have it enabled on the quick settings but disabled otherwhere.

Take some time and thoroughly check the settings ;)

I have saved many names like this: First Lastname (Company). Workaround I know but gets the job done.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevyn82:
And you could that quite easily by exporting your contacts in a csv file, then in excel just add a column to the left of LastName and add some funtion like =A1&" ("&F1&")", where A is the column with all the lastname and F is hypothetically the column with all the companies names.

Then you could expand the function with some IFs to check if the cell under Company is empty or not.

Then Copy and Paste over the new column al the values, Paste as Values (V), delete the old LastName column, save as a csv, import again in your account, et voila.

(remember to delete all the contacts before importing this new csv file)

Yeah its not just you, its broken and won't work for anyone. The fix is to not change it. Newt is just finishing up a new build. He made it really clear that 5.0 had some issues and people should wait on the next build. And the next build is close, he's been working hard on it to eliminate the couple of very minor bugs. Hopefully you flashed a different kernel if the one included have you some trouble.

I've had an issue with my nexus 7 for the last few days. I found it dead when I had it off and charged. Then it wouldn't charge. Eventually I saw on here someone recommended blowing in the use port to see if that helps, it did. Now though, if the tablet is off and I plug it in, it boots. And if it is off when plugged in, unplugging the power freezes it, which I can demonstrate with the battery screen. Then I have to force reset it to get it to boot. See the quick video I made to show Google support (they are sending me a new device). This started after 4.1.2 rolled out to it. Factory reset didn't fix it. Not rooted or unlocked or anything. Just wanted to share.

Agreed, sound's like a battery problem, hense it will boot when plugged in, as power is being provided.

Wereas when un-plugged and dependant on the battery, it shuts down.

Try re-plugging the battery like stated, or attempt to replace it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajax:
If you check the video I put a URL to in the first post (and at bottom), it still runs on battery, but you have to unplug it when it is already on to not g have problems. Works fine on battery if you plug and unplug it when it is on, so I don't see how it could be a loose battery.

For ALL devs.

I remember an old post of our belove Blades (Kernel's Dev), that talked about the possibility to push up RAM frequency, not only timings. Today can we reach this goal on our TF101?

"Testing out memory timings that may bite you.. If anyone can help cut through the bull**** that is MC/EMC clocks... just chime in here.. Originally I increased (slowed down) the timings and bumped up the clock by 33mhz.. and got fail. So... advancing the timings it is.. They are pretty pitiful stock.. What really pisses me off is the missing 33mhz (and thus 66mhz from emc).. we could use that... Well.. lets see if waking up the wimpy timings helps".

So, a new challange on the road! :cool:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
I would like to see this continued but I remember running some beta tests for blades with different timings and we found that the quality of the RAM in our TF101's was not that great.

If I remember correctly blades said because of the RAM it was not viable to do it and also that the way the timings had to be done was warped to say the least.

I think he had one or two updates with it but then stopped.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] K900:
Really dangerous. I've been messing around with it a bit and it looks like the RAM chips in most devices can't handle higher clocks properly.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sainthout:
Also, not all batches of RAM chips are the same quality, just like with Intel and AMD CPUs.

Some may clock a lot better than others. It would be almost impossible to find clocks that work fully stable for everyone and really actually speed.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sert00:
and finally,if someone do this change in ram's freq. sure there will be the need of many types of configurations,becuase our ram is ****ty,and not the same like you have sad.then a dev have to do many types of kernel with different ram's bumping,to accomodate all the users out there.my tab has an "elite" tegra2,never had poblems with blades kernels with tweaked timing and ram,and never had problems also oc to 1.7\1.8 like first elite kenels made by clemsyns

in the 2 type of ram packaged with tegra2,Ventana type,we have the lpddr2 at 300 mhz..i'd preferred to have the others one,ddr2 at 333 with a little more speed (2.66 compared to 2.4)

in the total of types of ram in the market,2.4 gb\sec is very very poor...i don't think that upping the freq. can apport so much performance's gain in this Soc..
