I asked this question on stackoverflow but it's getting (literally) no views for some reason so I'll repost it here.
hxxp://stackoverflow.com/questions/3321047/search-suggestions-fail-in-2-2
(new users can't post links)
My application uses in-app search, dynamically builds search suggestions on each request, puts them in a MatrixCursor and returns the suggestions to be displayed. Info on search suggestions here:
hxxp://developer.android.com/guide/topics/search/adding-custom-suggestions.html
This works perfectly fine in 2.1-update1, but when I loaded it on a 2.2 phone, I get a fatal error when I try to search. The error logs are in the link, but basically the application is getting an error in code that isn't mine (Google Android code for displaying search suggestions - SuggestionsAdapter). For some reason it's trying to get the MatrixCursor to Long.parseLong() a String, and the application is failing. Again, this does not happen in 2.1. I hope I've just overlooked something stupid.
Thanks!
Decided to help out and with the ok from ihtfp69 i wrote up a FAQ page
for everyone who uses Sky Raider Rom 3.3 Final
feel free to add.
zip is 180,304 kb
Sense 3.3 Requires a FULL WIPE
to avoid reboots make sure you have S-Off, Upgrade the radio to the OTA version
Wipe everything:
Factory Reset
Data Cache
Dalvik Cache
then apply SR 3.3
The initial boot animation is only there for the first boot and reverts to the original thereafter.
The fix for Rom Manager for fix permissions requires you to open Rom Manager once and then it will work after a reboot
Q: How to flash the ROM?
A:good info here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709220
Q: Since 3.3 requires a full wipe, due to all the changes, I was wondering if the MM mappings for the rosie launcher are still compatible with this new release.
A: All of the mappings are new so make sure you clear out the old ones and download the new ones.
Q:how to Change your lock screens from adb or terminal shellLock
A: there are 13 different lock screens including the HTC one
You must be on SP1 or higher to use them
Change your lock screens from adb or terminal shell
Type 'tabunlock' or 'rotaryunlock' to get the menu seen below
Please choose from the menu - S-OFF REQUIRED
1) normal
2) normal+menu unlock
3) normal+trackball unlock
4) music buttons
5) music buttons+menu unlock
6) music buttons+trackball unlock
7) restore HTC lock screen
8) get me out of here!
reboot
Q: how do you get a logcat?
A: Run CMD prompt and in while in the root folder sdk/tools/ run the command "adb logcat" copy paste all you see onto pastebin.com and post the link. or download logcat from market
"HTC Mail Mod for EAS Admin Removal" You just go to settings -> security -> remove admin policy
Any chance someone wants to actually put this on the wiki?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Droid_Incredible
There is a ROM section in there and would be a much better location than in a forum post.
What do you guys think?

hi
I am running SkyRaider 3.0 Sense RC3 but I have been unsuccessful in updating the radio. I've tried HBOOT but it doesn't like the image, tried renaming to update.zip, tried running the zip from Recovery.
Please advise.
thanks
Jack
Hello,
I would like to know what is "HTC Mail Mod for EAS Admin Removal". Is this some kind of feature?
I would like to disable the PIN Lock on my phone that is enforced by my companies security policy. I used to use LockPicker on Android 2.1 but that no longer works. Is there another solution for Android 2.2?
Thanks.
Nevermind I found it. You should add this to the FAQ. You just go to settings -> security -> remove admin policy (forgot the actual name since after I removed it, the option is no longer there)
Im having a couple of problems
1) I cant get my Yahoo mail account to set up, I have installed the Mail Mod from ROM manager.
2) I am trying to install an application from the market and i am getting the error saying I dont have enough space to install. I really dont have many apps so i dont think thats accurate. I have cleared the market's cache, data, and restarted the application, problem still persists.
Thanks for the help

Check to see how many saved backups you have. Each backup can be upwards of 300mb's. If you have more than three that could be the problem. Happened to me once before. I got rid of a couple unnecessary backup files and freed up over half a gig of space. Apps from the market installed with no problems again afterward.

Q: How to enable Tab Lock Screen with Sound Controls?
A: You need to remove the HTC lock screen to get to the underlying stock lock screen, get into Recovery, mount system, I go into adb shell to remove
cmd prompt
Code:
c:/sdk/tools>adb shell
~# (showsup) mkdir /system/app.disabled/
~# mv /system/app HtcLockScreen.apk /system/app.disabled/
~# exit

You have to let it sit for a good while... mine took like 5 minutes after changing the lock screen.
Is it normal for it to take up to 3 hours to complete? Cuz that's what keeps happening

I suggest using sysinterwolf cuz he is the man.
Hi all,
First of all thanks to all for the useful info. Been browsing this site (and modaco) for a while now. Finally got my Vega today
Apologies for the n00b question but....
Managed to sort out USB drivers (despite Win 7 x64... ) and updated to 1.09 from the official vega site. Now I'm trying to get the market working - put the OGMarket update (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931337) on my SD card and installed the google framework, market etc... and I can get the market to run, however whenever I select an app I get "force close".
Any suggestions?
Is there a better way of going about this? I have nothing useful on my vega yet so don't mind reflashing - just wanted to try and stick with 1.09 if poss.
I have noticed it seems to be an old version of the market (I have an up to date X10 mini pro with the newest market on it) but I can't figure out how to run the market updater app.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers.
When I switched to 1.09, to install the market I just used the file linked in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=930267 and it worked right. It installs an older version of the market but once running it updates itself.
Brill - will give this a go.
Cheers,
Xio
Just updated my rom add-on. Needs to be flashed with the software tool. All is working great for me
Hiya,
Managed to get market working using method above - thanks!
Some of the Ggaps aren't there (and don't show up on market) such as calendar, maps etc... but this is definitely a step forward.
Now to go look at that rom...
Thanks again to all for the info!
I would suggest you follow the tip to enable all the apps in the market in my thread, google Maps shows fine for me. I can add more gapps to it no problem, just trying to keep the rom size down. Calendar does not show i can add that as a extra download.
Absolutely brill!
Now got google maps (and the superb mini taskbar) - as you say, no calendar on marketplace, so if you have it handy that would be great.
Otherwise - slick work!

I have had this issue, it started last night when i decided to re-flash my vega. (i have been doing lots of testing and wanted a clean system) It appears to effect all roms and builds. I tried stock v1.065, v1.08 and v1.09 also tried maodaco r8 and all resulted in the same. I ended up doing a application restore (from software tool) which resulted in market logging in, but then getting a message "No matching content in Android Market" I fixed this with market enabler. Not sure why this has happened, as it appears to effect all roms. Have to wait and see how many people this effects.
Your vega not booting is strange as you are the first to report the problem with the Gapps. Did you have sufficient battery power to apply the flash? Enter recovery and reflash the stock rom.
If anybody else is having the same issues please report, Thanks.
It is more a boot loop, the android buddy shows and that is it. I reflashed 1.09 and your pack. I will try the stock settings now. Lets see ^^
Ok it doesnt work, i guess your pack hate germans ^^
i although test to set my language and timezone to an american one (read something in an other forum) doesnt work. So now iam clueless...
Send from my Vega
Odd, I got the market working but it only had free apps. Had to set to US in language and keyboards to get the paid apps to show, but now all prices are in dollars. Must be a location thing.
Afraid I am having the same problem too actually...
I have flashed 1.09 again - system restarts ok.
Unfortunately when I add the apps pack I just get the little android symbol on the screen in a boot loop
Any ideas? Was really cool when the apps were workin tho
EDIT: My location is UK btw.. incase that's useful
EDIT 2: What I mean to say is, I add the apps pack and it loads fine, all the apps work, all is well - however, if I then power down the vega it goes into the boot-loop.
Cheers,
Xio
There are more and more messages and news that there is a problem with the market login. I guess it is not the user, it is the server from google.

That's a relief - I have just been re-flashing and wondered what I had done wrong when the market didn't log in!
Cheers Gman for all yer work so far. Am trying different combinations of apps in the pack to see if it is one in particular causing the problem - also, while on the topic, any chance of getting google talk in there? I have an apk that works on the vega - but I'm not sure if that's going to cause a bootloop too, so I'm leaving it off for now!

Thx man, if you need any help, testing or something, ping me.
Send from my Vega
Hmm,
I'm probably going about this back to front but...
Have installed the apps pack straight away (without the mini-taskbar etc mod) containing only:
Calendar
CalendarProvider
DeskClock
Gmail
GoogleCalendarSync
GoogleServicesFramework
Maps
NetworkLocation
Street
Updater
Youtube
Seems fine (I.E. I can restart the vega without bootloop) but I cannot "establish a reliable data connection to the server" - it would appear much of the internet is having the same problem at the mo for whatever reason!
Ofcourse this is still missing the all important market etc... and I didn't realise just how much I'd miss the mini taskbar!
Tried making "my own" update - chopping together the apks, updating the updater-script file then signing the zip.... it didn't end well.
*Flashes 1.09 again*...
I think this is a google thing. i have tried every rom/market update combination, but still unable to log into market. Restoring from a application back up from software tool, fixes the login problem but you can only see free apps unless you change the language in language and keyboard to US.
I have an Archos 101 with firmware 2.1.04 and I've installed the Android Market via the gAppsInstaller app. However, when I try to add a Google Account, I get this error message:
"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server"
I can sign into my Google account through the web browser without any problem. I've tried re-initializing the tablet, reinstalling the gAppsInstaller app, and I've also tried installing the Android Market with the Arctools app available in Appslib. And I've tried force stop/clear data on the google applications listed in Manage Applications.
Has anyone else had this problem or have any suggestions for fixing it? I would really like to get the Market and Gmail working on my Archos 101. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Same here, something must be down. Try again later...
Sucks to be us.
Ahh, ok. Just got the 101 today, thought I had borked something up. Thanks for the quick reply, I'll try again tomorrow.
Had the same issue with my droid.
My droid required a factory reset to fix this problem. According to google its an issue with the settings.db file that stores your account info.
I've been playing with my new 101 all evening trying to get it to work and have had the same results as you.
I tried rooting with z4root to delete the .db file but it doesn't work either.
su and sudo don't exist in a shell. With my un-rooted droid typing su would produce "permission denied." not "command not found."
I don't think this is a server issue... although I could be wrong. I think its an issue with the app's not being able to read or write to settings.db
"data/data/com.google.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db" in case anyone wants to try something with it.
I also haven't had any luck connecting the thing to adb... but I'm going to try another machine not running ubuntu 10.10 as I've been reading there are a lot of issues with the SDK and 10.10 for some reason. Anyway good luck and if I find a fix I'll post it here.
Yes, I'm having the same problem! It has nothing to do with the tablets or accounts. I tried a fresh install and multiple accounts and none worked. This is something on Google's end.
Edit: @n8hack - z4root doesn't work with Archos after firmware 2.0.54.
I have the same problem too!! Help!!
Thank GOD it's not just me..
I just got my Archos 101 last night and spent hours and hours resetting, formatting, installing firmware via USB etc.. only to come up with the same results.
Anyone with some advice would be greatly appreciated.
(P.S. Thanks to n8hack for testing)
This is very frustrating. It is a problem for everyone trying to add NEW Google accounts to their tablet. People are starting to post about this over at the ArchosFans forum also. This just started to be a problem on the 14th.
I've tried almost all of the tricks I've found in forums, but none seem to help.. I'm still looking for a solution.

I have my 101 rooted.
In terminal, after i type "su" without quotes I get the # prompt (rooted w/ su access)
then I type (without quotes) "ls data/data/" and com.google.android.providers.settings is not listed.
So i try (again, without quotes) "ls data/data/com.google.android.providers.settings/" (to get a list of what's in there) and I get a "not found" error.
now either I typed it wrong, or that particular directory doesn't exist (just my amateurish guess... I'm not very fluent w/ android/linux command line at all)
Hope this helps

I have not had the problem myself but it sounds reasonable.
My market stopped working last night after unfixing the market to revert to the original state. I have re-fixed, tried a full reset and reinstalled gappsv5-final, tried a different (new) account, reset date/time and nothing works. If you have the market working, beware of unfixing/fixing as this is what killed mine. This is really terrible! but at least I know I am not alone.

I've got the same problem, since this morning. Yesterday, it was all ok (also refixing Market).
This morning I reformatted my device (Archos 70 It), then I downloaded Arctools from AppsLib and I installed Market. But there is no way to add Google Account to my Archos...
Some people over in the Nook forums seem to be having the same issues.
Early reports that the following works as a workaround. Dunno if it'll work on the Gen 8 devices though.

2. Open the YouTube application on your Adroid phone, sign out of your account if you're currently signed in (menu button -> sign out)
3. Sign in-menu button-my account, log in with your EMAIL ADDRESS (not your YouTube username)
4. Now You're all done - you can sign out of the account in the YouTube app again if desired. Go to Settings-Accounts and you should see your account in the list.

Really looks like a google server issue to me.
Holy crap! I just kept restoring stuff with Titanium Backup and POOF! I got this thing.
The last time I tried it, I disabled WIFI, and restored my data for G-Talk, Market & GSF. Rebooted, accepted the location dialog, and turned on wifi. Now it works!
There is a fix for this in the Gtab forum. Just install market enabler and fake t-mobile NL (thats what i used) might work with other operators. I had tryed all day on my AdventVega. I just did this and it worked. Thanks to the guys in Gtab forum. Its the sticky thread
I tried using the market enabler app, but all I get is a "Houston we have a problem" error message when I try to fake any provider.
Thanks all for the suggestions..
Youtube method doesn't work
Time and Date are correct
Market Enabler didn't work
I'll try restoring with Titanium.

If you have a good Titanium Backup, restore Accounts, Google Services Framework, Market and Google Talk. REBOOT before attempting to access the Market.
I was able to get mine working this way, I was then able to modify my build.prop and gain access to all apps (finally!!).
Any solutions for non-root users (i.e., those without market enabler or titanium backup)? I really hope that we non-root users are not locked out forever.

Here's the issue I have with that: It appears my current ROM does not have a custom UA. Therefore, I cannot apply this fix. Might you know of any other fixes?
Thanks..
