Hi all, i have been having a very bazaar problem lately...When my phone boots up i get a pop-up message indicating that the gapps process shutdown unexpectedly...and sometimes i may even get a acore crash too. Applications from the market do not download...when i select my download i will end up getting a gapps crash and then the supposed download just sits there saying "starting...". Google talk doesn't even open! It will just say that the process quit unexpectedly. Even after a fresh install with factory data reset all these problems will continue. The initial boot up screen/tutorial will even show a gapps crash. I have tried with 3 different versions of cyanogenmod all with the exact same problem..Each version i've tried with a2sd enabled and disabled, formatting the partition each time before a new install to ensure no data carry-over issues. I don't know what to do. To me it seems like it make be something on googles side...but i can't for the life of me figure out whats causing these wild problems. Help would be very much appreciated.
ANDROID Market problems
I've recently had the same problem with the market getting stuck on "starting download". I thought it was something I modified as I'm putting together a STARGATE theme of my own based on kron2's work with this site and the theme for "Open Home" for DWANG's newest ROM. What worked for me was going back 1 restore point at a time till I found one that didn't have the problem (NANDROID backup). I also had luck with flashing DWANG's original unmodified ROM 1.17.1. I had the same problem when I flashed 1.16 ..weird. Up till 2 days ago I didn't have any problems changing anything in it. Others have said that they tried opening G-Talk at the same time and some how going between the 2 the problem would right itself. If you find out anything definite about what the exact problem is let me know as I'm going to keep looking for the answer myself.

I have searched and it seems many people have the Market/Gtalk problem.
I have the same problem (with an Eclair 2.1 Cyanogenmod rom) and I've not been able to find a solution. Wiping the cache makes nothing.
Anyone knows how to solve it?
Huh. I had a problem with the market at first with cyan 5.0.8 . I went in the terminal and ran fix_permissions after su and haven't had any problems since. Might try that

Anyone else having issues with ROM manager downloading the ROM list recently? Been trying to grab some modifications for my Blackhole but it keeps errorring out. Trying to figure out if the problem is on my side. Downloading off of Wifi, btw.
I had it stall midway through. What I did was reboot the phone while it was downloading when it became sluggish and went back and downloaded again from rom manager and it picked up where it left off.

Rebooting the phone usually fixes the rom manager issues long enough for me to download the stuff I'm trying to get

Updating via the market has fixed this problem for me before.
ROM manager has been giving me the same problems as well ever since the last few updates. It will only work the first time I boot the phone and open ROM manager. If I try opening it again without rebooting the phone it does not work.
It used to work fine so I am not sure what they did to break it, but each update that came out didn't really do anything to fix it.
Same experience as post above. I would like to see ROM manager rolled back a few updates as it worked better before.
Just installed this ROM and as before, all previous Syndicate roms were amazing! But this one has a few issues id like to question. Biggest problem is when i turn my Epic off, it wont charge. It stalls at the battery loading screen. It just shows the "working icon" and doesn't go away. I have to pull the battery. Perhaps this isn't the rom, but i've never had this issue until now.
Second thing, a FC for "gapps" keeps coming up. Dunno why, never did before, perhaps a re-flash of the ROM would fix it. It's just a pain setting everything up over and over.
If anyone could help, I couldn't post this to the ROMs Specific thread because i'm a noob and havent posted 10 times yet, so here i am. Thank you in advance for all your help and knowledge.

The battery issue is an issue with CWM3.0.6... so i was told. So it isn't rom related. As for the gapps, I don't think they have made a gapps yet for this rom...

Roam Control
I have Flashed this ROM from supernova didn't like the battery drain so I wiped and went back to where I was before with my nandroid back up but Kernal was still stuck on twilight. I then reflashed this rom after using the samsung odin to get back to stock then the one click root from AC where you can keep data phone frooze on samsung re-odined from the ROM's OP to get CW3 and ext4. wiped 3x and flashed got a bad flash rewiped and flashed and it's finally working kind of.
I am in a place where we have no sprint 3G which is fine as @home in on wifi. Android market doesn't work unless on wifi. when off wifi it always says it looses connection or needs a connection (this never happened on any other rom I've ran before) it is way slower if I ever do get to download anything. Also other apps such as world war say I have no connection half the time as well. I used to use Roam Control from the market to get better service as I get zero in the office with sprint but now I can't even get that to work everytime I try and hit roam in the app it says to purchase from the market when I already have.
As i previously mentioned wasn't happy with the battery drain. so I have tried re downloading the zip for ROM and the new twilight fix. still losing a percent or 2 every 15-20 min seems pretty big drain compared to the supernova I was running and the midnight 4.1 before that. any help would be awesome. I wish I could put this in the ROM's thread but this is only my first post on xda. not a fan of that rule.
Re-download and reflash. Be sure to wipe 3x before doing so!

Gapps is baked in the rom, and I'm gonna try and reinstall everything. Ill post again with my experience.

If you are having issues, then I would suggest doing EB13 + EXT4 with ODIN and then doing a fresh install. The rom has been nothing but stable for me. And if you use titanium backup or some other type of app restoration then I would suggest only restoring apps with data in only the apps you really need. Otherwise you are going to run into trouble.

Can you try a fresh uninstall and re-install of Roam Control through the market? Then just make sure you have a signal the first time you change the roaming mode. Send me an email at roamcontrol (at) gmail (dot) com with any questions. Thanks!
Ok so, using CWM, I just wiped and cleared the cache a bunch of times. Not all gapps were there. Just market and contacts. I had to install gmail, search and others. I'm not getting ANY FC's. Its smooth as butter now. Now to fix the battery lock up problem. Is there a EB13 tar with the EXT4 CWM included? I'm sure someone has done it by now. Plus, this is the first version of the 2.2 rom. It can only get better. Thanks for your help fellas.

Thanks for the info on that chat help. I talked to them a bit consensus is another odin, wipe, and flash . I've tried so many times already i'm starting to get frustrated, oh well, all part of the experience right. I just got home so we'll see with new downloads of all files I can get this baby running.
Hi guys thanks for the awesome ROM
I just wanted to mention I am having the same email issue with my IMPAP AOL account, at first I was using IMAP SSL 993, I deleted the account and readded standard IMAP 143 and I am having same problem. I know you guys are aware of the email issue, I just wanted to share this info with you.
Before I installed this ROM I used ES File Explorer to copy my Angry Birds highscores.lua file to SD card and then to my computer. After installing this ROM I installed Angry Birds and it was working fine, then I installed ES File Explorer. I copied back my highscores.lua file back to the correct directory. Angry Birds started crashing after this whenever I cleared a level. It turns out the file I copied back was not writeable, so I installed Terminal Emulator and did a chmod to the highscores.lua to make it writeable, and now it works fine.
When I was on stock EBE13 my TWS was 51% I was able to fix this by changing my Mobile network from Automatic to Sprint Only and then it went to 2%. I am using this on Boost Mobile so I dont think I can Roam anyway. On this ROM my TWS is 50%, changing to Sprint Only has no affect on this, and I tried toggeling Airplane Mode on and off and it did not seem to help.
Once again thanks for this superfast ROM

it was answered in post #2, the battery lockup is an issue with CWM 3.x.x. It was also posted numerous times in the Syndicate ROM thread. I'm getting tired of reading about it.

They know about the email issue and are working on it.
Not sure about the angry birds issue sorry.
for the TWS issue I still do the airplane mode toggle to fix that. unfortunately I think that will be necessary forever, I see you've tried it already but try from a fresh reboot right away and see if that works and also I've heard of some having to toggle a couple times before it working. after a reboot I just toggle 3 times just to be safe. I have not found a rom that solves this issue. That's weird that changing to sprint only helped I have never tried that nor heard of anyone who has. I'd give it a shot but I use roam control at work so maybe i'll see if it works this weekend when I'm not at work.
I hope it works out for you, I don't know too much but hope i helped somewhat. have a good one.
I was able to fix Echange email issue by replacing Email.apk with the file from this thread.

Is anyone else having an issue with call volume? I just made my first phone call since flashing this ROM and I could barely hear the person on the other end despite having the volume up as loud as it would go.
Is there a fix for this? If so, can someone point me to it?
So when I first rooted my phone I put Fresh on there. I installed the ROM and the 2 radio files. I then got the 3d and gave the evo to my gf, but fresh was very slow for me so I installed the CM7 ROM.
CM7 was very buggy for her, especially since she was new to Android I decided Sprint Lover's ROM on there and flashed a newer update on it since.
The problem is that she has been having problems with 3g. She has so many problems and errors with 3g data. It shows that she has 3g, but she gets errors when she tries to access the internet.
My question is, how can I get it back to stock or a nice rooted stock rom to try and fix this problem? Do I just flash a stock rom? I'm guessing the fresh radio's might be messing something up. If there is a simple solution to this without having to do a full erase I'm sure she prefers that, being that we've fully erased her phone like 4 times already, lol.
Thanks guys.
Get the Sprint Lovers all-in-one package from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=830153
It's flashed through hboot (it's a PC36IMG.zip) and will flash not just the rom but also the radios. This will wipe everything.
Alternately you can go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 and get just the latest radios and flash those. Flashing this will not wipe everything.
If the problem is with the radios then that should fix it. If it doesn't, then it's likely that the issue lies somewhere else.
thanks, just installed the new radio's. Will see how it works.
I would definitely just get the app mybackup root and back everything up apps/data , sms etc.. Then just restore everything after you flash a new ROM.
Then just do a fresh install of what ever ROM you want then test out different radios till you find the best ones that work for you I'm on old radios because the newer ones didn't work great for me not all evos work the same .
I hope that helps you out some.

I got simalar problem like u.
I installed new radios, try different roms like MIUI, CM6, CM7, Miks, Minn, OMJ's, etc...... finally I go back to stock rom but still got the same problem.
I almost crazyy
the phone never got 3G signal, it only works 1G no matter what I did.
I've reserched couple days but looks like nobody got my problem.
now I fixed my problem btw... well I'm not sure this thing works to u or not
anyway try it if u still got 3G problem.
*I don't even remember where this posted originally,,, somewhere this forum or not,,
huge thanks to original author btw
download 'MSL reader' at market n get the numbers. it's 6 digits.
go to your phone and type ##3282#
tap 'edit mode'
type that 6 digits from MSL reader
tap 'data profile'
open menu n tap 'restore'
then the phone will be reboot.
when booting is done, your phone will start resistering to network.
after that, if something popup n ask update (mayb PRL update), 'cancel' it.
mine works perfectly now.
hope this work to u.
ok thanks, i'll try it out. I do get "3g" at the top though, but always get an error while trying to retrieve data.
Also, what files in the SD card are necessary? Is there a list? I think there are so many junk files in there taking up space, I don't know whats necessary and whats not.
Please help slow EVO 4G after flashing Sprint Lovers All In One
Obvious Noob here.
having issues with my Evo 4G after flashing Sprint Lovers All in one
phone seemed very fast immediatly after flashing SL but since then has become just overall slow.
in fact, i'm downloading an update to ROM Manager right now (a 2.27MB file) and it's taken literally 20 minutes to get to 75%. it's painful!
when i go in to manage applications...says "computing" on space, data and cache etc.
before i flashed SL all in one i ran factory reset 3x in a row prior to flashing - i did NOT re-format my SD card but had it removed (after unmounting).
Should i try to wipe and re-flash or just go to CM7? Are there any things i can try before re-flashing or moving to another rom? Please help..
thank you OB1B
I've seen this mentioned in other places before, other threads and in the r/motox subreddit, about how the open GAPPS package apparently flashes the Google Dialer over the stock one, and it doesn't work with the Pure? Which is what causes the reboots whenever I try to make a call or, presumably, get a call, which until now I chalked up to random reboots in CM13.
So I've seen a bunch of posts about it, but none that explain how to actually fix it? Am I doing something wrong from the start?
Bonus question, I've been having radio problems on almost every AOSP rom I flash, either Wifi doesn't work upon booting and it persists in other ROMS or cell service is out (even though LTE data works fine). Is the radio (which I assume is the same as the "modem") included in each ROM package and is replaced every time you flash a new one, or does it persist in some system directory cross-firmware?
There are so many posts on how to fix I'm not sure how you could miss them. Set as default or uninstall.

Set what as default? Or uninstall what? When I look in the apps list all I see is "phone". Nothing under the name google dialer or anything. It's just confusing, I didn't have this problem on other phones.
Sorry for the double post but I figured instead of making another thread I'll continue asking here, I'm STILL having cell issues, no matter what ROM I flash, stock or AOSP, or any of the radios I can find around the forums, whether it be with the February security update or not, I'm still not getting a connection. In fact once I flashed a new modem, I went from not being able to send texts etc. but able to get LTE data, to getting no connection at all. I'm totally lost, this is the second time it's happened I have no idea what to do. Happens in every single rom.
Last time it was fixed once I flashed from stock (which I had in turn flashed to try to get rid of the problem) to CM13 I think. But it was totally random, I have a feeling it didn't even have anything to do with the ROM itself...

Thanks, I honestly dunno why I couldn't find that before. At first I wasn't even aware it was actually called the "google dialer" so I was just googling "phone app reboots after flash/root/etc" and obviously it wasn't turning up many results. But the stock rom rooted debloated thread had the instructions at the bottom, now I know. Whoops. Like I said, just really confusing coming from other phones where everything mostly just worked....
The baseband is still perplexing me though, in the bootloader under baseband it says <not found>. I'm keeping on trying to flash different stock roms to see if I get lucky.
EDIT: so I think flashing the modem at the SAME TIME as a new ROM might be the key? I think I saw something about that on some random obscure post and tried it out and bam, it worked like a charm. Anyway hopefully that works again when I flash to something new
