That's unfortunate, there is a couple versions for adding gapps, wonder if one works better than the others.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MoonPhantasm:
The most up to date might be gapps4archos v4. kenyu has been working on it and making it work well.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenyu73:
Its actually called gAppsInstaller_v4, but close enough.. ;)

The v4 version fully stable.

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marine6680:
Uninstalled market and did a factory reset, seems to be behaving better for now. I was using v4 though.

Side loaded all the apps I needed and slideme market, so far so good. Its only been about an hour, so longer testing is needed to be sure.

New MKT Version,

Kenyu,

Is there any word on the New Mkt floating around here. Can we install it? Are you going to work on a version for us?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenyu73:
I spent a good portion of the day yesterday playing around with a hot swap of the newer Market, but had no luck.

I even reset and added the newer Market to a fresh install and it worked, but was very unstable. Basically, in order to get a stable version of the Market, we need a specific type/flavor of Vendor.apk which I don't have nor do I know how to find or even what to look for.... :rolleyes:

It's almost like the gApp files need to be all in sync with each other in order to get a stable Market experience....

Get the file OTA is a different matter... I think that will work OK.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbop:
I gave up on the market with my A5 IT... it runs so much better without it(more RAM, less FC's). The only annoying part is when apps have plugins on the market - these are often difficult to find elsewhere. Also some apps will assume you have it installed and can sometimes FC when they look for it and can't find it.

I have not intention of installing it on my gen8 either.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marine6680:
After more testing, its still running good. The shoehorning method of installing market may be causing problems somewhere. I'm not even running a task manager to keep the thing from locking up. Even when switching between several memory intensive apps the free memory would stay around 40mb free at minimum. Seems memory management is working better.

[Nexus S General] CraigP17:
i will have plenty of time to handle, talk about, and play with the Nexus S at work. I will not settle for T-Mobile quality coverage so I will not own it.

Unless the AT&T variant drops right away as well...which is nowhere in sight. If it drops 3 months later like i had to wait for N1...i will be abandoning the Nexus line and will replace with my N1 with something else....in 3 months an AT&T Nexus S will be a waste.

color me disappointed. maybe if i was credit challenged i could have a T-Mobile Nexus S. (not a shot at any of you, t-mobile just isnt quality at all around here, in a major city market., you only have it if you cant get approved for a big carrier)
[Nexus S General] AVonGauss:
That is the most ignorant statement I have heard all day. I can understand and respect if T-Mobile service is not good where you are and hence you don't want it, but to assume only people with credit issues use T-Mobile reflects very poorly on the person making such a statement.
[Nexus S General] neok44:

[Nexus S General] seanerixon:
Working for Best Buy Mobile, I deal with costumers from all providers. And I must say AT&T is making harder on themselves. Their customer support has gotten worse, their policies are more strict. They are losing customers left and right. And many of them are ready to jump to VRZ, not just because of the iPhone either. I have T-Mobile, never had a dropped call. I had Cingular/ATT before, and it was drop call after drop call. I live in Philadelphia, and around it's suburbs. AT&T better fix their act. Even Virgin Mobile's 25$ 300minutes with unlimited text/web is looking better now. And they are getting Android phones now too :D Not to mention ATT's phone lineup is based around the iPhone to reign supreme.
[Nexus S General] ksc6000:
Excellent statement. Totally agree with you.
[Nexus S General] JupiterDroid:
Just another example of XDA troll's that pop along and make a statement and dont even hang around to back it up. I live in London and even here we know about AT&T's terrible service in the states....

Im with T-Mobile in the UK and i must say they are fantastic, easily the best UK carrier by a mile;))

So its a shame you had to breathe to say farewell, wait.... It was a shame you breathed at all, lol

Now don't come back ya'hear;P

Go buy an iPhone and live in blissful ignorance;)

There is no better choice in NYC. Great voice quality and a solid reliable data network that handles peak usage times and locations better then any of the competition. (VZW also handles them well, but with slower data)

[Captivate General] snorkle:
Hello, I had a question about flashing a new rom . I wanted to update my cognition from 2.3.6b to the latest one but someone told me to do perception build 8. So I downloaded both of them and I was also told to rom to stock before doing it. My question is if I do flash to stock wouldn't I have to really root my phone and get froyo back on it? Before flashing either one of these and which one do u recommend for the captivate?

thank you
[Captivate General] justdrew:
the rom include froyo, yes you would have to root again
[Captivate General] Pinepig:
I normally do a master clear in Odin after I flash stock so you'll need to root it again.

The best option is to copy your update zip file ( from CWM ) to you comp or external card before you flash to stock and then put it back after you flash to stock. Three button recovery combo, reinstall packages and you are good to go to flash your new rom.
[Captivate General] snorkle:
My update.zip is only 1.7mb is that right? So flash to stock get cwm and the 3 button recovery thing that's not download mode is it?
[Captivate General] norcal einstein:
I'm having a hard time comprehending posts 1 & 2, but here we go:

It is strongly recommended you flash back to stock JF6 before flashing a new ROM. Cognition and Perception are both FroYo ROMs...so you don't "get it back", whatever that means.

If you currently have ROM Manager installed on your phone, open up the app and select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery". This should invoke a small download of a file named "update.zip" that gets stored at the root of your /sdcard. The update.zip file is ClockworkMod Recovery. When you are preparing to flash a new rom, move that update.zip (ClockworkMod Recovery) OFF of your phone, onto your computer. Use Odin to flash back to stock. Once you're back in stock JF6, you want to move the update.zip back to your phone as well as Perception/Cognition. Now all you need to do is boot into Android Recovery and select "reinstall packages" until you are in ClockworkMod Recovery, and flash away.

If you DON'T save off the update.zip which is CWM, you will need to do a root after you've flashed to stock JF6. You need to root so that you can then download ROM Manager from the market, and select "Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery", and then follow ROM flashing procedures.

I'm not going to say Cognition is better than Perception or vice versa. They are both great, and designgears has said he will continue to work on both. You can read through the respective threads and generate your own opinion on what you should flash.
[Captivate General] snorkle:
Thank you norcal! That was exactly what I needed to know

i own a htc magic and i just got a desire for my brother ;( (yea i know, ill get my one soon though) and i want to root it and put a custom rom on it.

i just have a few general questions.

what stable rom would you recommend? which one is the most popular? and what recovery should i go for?

and another one should i go ahead and get a class 6 micro sd card or am i good with a class 2 one?

thank you.

ps apologies if it is in the wrong section. :confused:
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firstin:
class 2 will do, leedroid is a good stable sense rom, use unrevoked method for rooting, if ur ph is branded make a gold card. see the sticky in this forum called "complete guide to rooting"

thank you very much for the quick responses. for me sense is old, cyanogen im using on my magic which is great no doubt, but MIUI sounds tempting will check it out further.

Oxygen if you can do without Sense apps. If Sense apps are a necessity, then you should go for Pays. IMHO...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mydogholly:
Rom.

Hey man,

i guess the custom rom you want depends whether you like the classic android

froyo and it's speed, or the slightly more lagging, yet much more good looking,

htc sense. If you're opting for the latter, then i would suggest RCMix's HD rom for

speed and stability, but like i said, if you prefare the classic froyo UI then i would

personally recommend DeFroST-6.1, im currently using it and i've found it an

absolute dream.

Have fun whatever you opt for,

sam.

Hi,

I am new to rooting Android although I have had a ton of WM devices in the past.

I finally rooted my MT3G Slide and installed Cyanogenmod. However, I need Google Apps and cannot install. I have downloaded the file and placed on my SD card without renaming it. When I boot into recovery there is no place for me to select which zip to install, therefore it tries to install Cyanogenmod again. How do I install this, I need it???!!!

Thanks for helping a newbie (to Android anyway)
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etu_aty:
the process goes like this... you go into recovery from reboot menu on cyanogenmod right? then you select apply update.zip and if you are booting into clockwork recovery (wich is the only file that should be named update.zip on your sdcard ---> [get it here and rename it to update] then you should be able to select a zip from sdcard. then you just move around with the volume keys and select the file with power button, the file is named google addon mdpi something wich you can get here

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
In WM when you open Google maps...it calculate's you're approx position really fast within 2-3 seconds (accuracy within 200m), I guess from the mobile networks...and when GPS lock happen accuracy is increased to 10m..

However Android is only able to do it when the lock happens which may take long time...if you're surrounded by big buildings and can be annoying some times...

Its the same amongs many builds i tried so far...is it same for you guys or native android phones or is it HD2 android limitation?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kam333:
it was the same for me...

GPS Status from the market helped to bring it down to around 1 or 2 mins lock, (using the 'manage A-GPS status' setting)

its also been suggested to use quick gps in windows before booting into android, which does work but only after the 1st boot.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lukesan:
That is weird.

Whenever I put a new build on I get the approx location within seconds, and that is without GPS being active.

My apn settings are not automatically populated since my provider is not in the default list. So wifi and regular mobile (tower) reception are being used to give the approx location (last one this morning approx 50 meters (150ft) accuracy).
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
Yes after GPS lock...its no problem...i also get GPS lock within a minute or two normally..but problem begins when you're inside or being surrounded by big buildings, the GPS lock don't happen or take a long long time...in WM google maps get the approx location within 5-6 secs after opening and you can immediately get directions which are mostly correct...

BTW GPS status for HD2 does nothing, since it can't write AGPS data to Chip...its known limitation of Android HD2. You're seeing the results becoz of QuickGPS in Winmo
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Mafioso:
Do you keep the Wifi always on on you're mobile...becoz i normally keep it disabled. Is it becoz of disabling Wifi
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] lukesan:
I think it turns off if it goes in power save, meaning the backlight goes off. (except when it syncs data)

The reason why my wifi is always on when installing a new build is because it always asks for this when you go through the install wizzard.

Is there possibly a easy way to change the operator name to something customizable say for your own name?

Now with Froyo the lockscreen shows the operator name as well as before froyo the operator name is also shown in the notification drop down window.

I remember on the iphone there was a app called FakeCarrier which changed the cell phone operator name to whatever you wanted. I tried searching it up and only thing close was a app called Personalizer but that seemed to be for windows mobile phones only and not android.

I have just rooted and installed kaosfroyo v38 on my Droid Eris. I am using LauncherPro. I was having serious battery life issues until I installed the latest CFS kernel (v9). Since upgrading my kernel, battery is great but the app market is broken. When trying to download and install apps, I get a download unsuccessful error.

I've read and read this and other forums for a fix and can't seem to find any that work. I did find some answers, but they didn't work. I cleared data and cache. I did a dalvik wipe. Did the market fix. Nothing works.

Strangely enough, I can install Verizon apps from the market, no problem. Also, some apps can install fine, like Best Buy. Specifically, I am trying to install "The Best Card Game Ever - Yaniv".
