Skymap not installing on Froyo RC 1.3a - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I download through the market but it keeps saying the install was unsuccessful. I search the forums but couldn't find anything on this. Anyone got any ideas? Is it because of the gps issues?

It's the same for me on any android build
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

I can install it and it works. (i'n using Cyanogen Rom with Data fix
But it isn't correct/accurate because of the compass calibration "bug".

If you can't install it do this:
Settings->SD Card and phone settings->UnMount SD Card->Install sky map from the market place->Remount SD Card

goatmaster, thanks alot, works like a champ!

I can confirm this to be a solution, thank you so much!

This doesn't work for me because it won't download. I try to install it and it says it will download but it never does.

Hugs and kisses mate.

Put *star*.apk in sdcard\Android\AndroidApps and restart beast.

Just copy *.apk file into /data/app using Root Explorer ("Unmount SD Card"
may not working on some builds)..

And one day i wants to install some apps in SD card, but doesnt now what to do first. i try to do something myself, but only thing that i do is split the SD card memory, and now some space from my sd card memory is not avaiable. Can so9meone can say what to do first... to install some apps in SD and install some unofficial 2.1 android version on tattoo.
P.S. - I am latvian and not know the English language perfectly, so maybe that is the reason because i dont understand what to do first...

Download AppMonster or Astro from the market. These will allow you to copy apks to your SD card. But note, you can't run apps from your SD card, you can only swap them in and out of memory.

[Q] Angry Birds Lite unable to install

Anybody go the same issue?
yep, doesn't install, just returns with some error 18 or something like that, no further nots
Bangsters 1.3 here
Unmount sd card then go back and install
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
thanks for the hint but... I'm a newby and how can I do it?
Thanks a lot, pal!
I guess it's Settings -> SD-Card and Storage -> Eject SD-Card (or something like that, my phone is set to german so no idea what it says there in english) but can't try atm.
done but... the game still doesn't install...
"Oh well, whatever, nevermind..."
yep, still won't install. same goes for Fruit Ninja, just tells me that installation failed, no further notes or explanations. and raging thunder 2 freezes my phone completely.
ok got it:
unmount sdcard -> install game -> mount sdcard
Hy there people, yeah i know it s boring those app that wont install.
The thing is not in mouting and unmounting sd in settings, i ve tried
a lot of things but noting works, except changing my custom rom.
I used froyostone rom the one with no sense clock can be found on forum.
I never could install angry birds and others app or games, even if i downloaded
the file via pc and put it on my phone with droid explorer.
So i changed to an other rom the one with cyanogen builds, yeah it work
for me to install angry bird lite, but got much other apps that wont install. But those same apps worked on my froyostone rom.
So i guess there are some settings missing in those custom roms so that it make
it possible to install everything..... be patient or buy a second sd card one where you install froyosense with an older 3d patch in it (yeah if i bench froyostone i got a worse benchmark than with cyanogen based rom) and one the
second card install an other vustom rom if you want to install apps that dont
work with froyo...
Ehmmm by the way does somebody know if there is a patch boosting froyostone
rom 3D because i got i a difference of 200 points when i use cyanogen based rom???

Suppose we have to unmount sd card,where should I put the source file?
Because usually I put everything in the SD card

I could still access it when going to the lowest directory level and then going to the sdcard folder. seems the card is not really unmounted, just for the system but you can still access it with astro:
press "Up" until it goes no further, then scroll down to "sdcard" and voila.

I can't get this to install no matter what I do. I've tried DLing it from the market, DLing the apk to my card & installing it that way, but it just will not work. Unmounting the SD card doesn't work either. Has anyone gotten this to install on Shubcraft?
Unmounting the card worked for me as well. make sure you are doing it in the right order as the previous posts
Unmount the card
Install game
remount card
A lot of people were unmounting, remounting and then installing
Instructions work.
I was unable to find the file after unmounting. However, as suggested, clicking to the lowest level in Astro and selecting SDCARD revealed the contents. The SDCARD shortcut in Astro did not work, had to navigate as mentioned.
Hi,

glad to know there was an easier alternative.

Angry Birds full version released today but which version do we download?

As the title suggests, the full version of this game was finally released today. BEWARE, THE SITE KEEPS CRASHING DUE TO THE NUMBER OF HITS:
http://www.getjar.com/
but there are different versions for different android phones and I still haven't found the right one! The fact that the site keeps crashing due the volume of people trying to get the game means that I have only been able to download 2 versions, the desire version and the desire z. I don't even know if there is a version that will work for us yet but, if anyone has the right apk for the HD2 then please post it here.
Thanks

+1 I also have the same problem. I have a stock nexus one rom by tytung, and I cant get this game to work. Any solutions?
It is also in the market. I am downloading it now.
my question might be a bit off topic (don't want to create another thread), sorry about that, i have read in several threads that i need to unmount and then mount my sd card to install angry birds. just wanted to know how that unmounting/mounting procedure will affect the files in my sd card. basically, is there a possibility to loose all the data/files in the sd card? cheers
Yep,
They've released it in the market now so all is good.

I haven't had any problems with mounting/remounting my card. That's not to say that it's impossible to encounter some data corruption but I think you should be fine.

you also have to do this for some apps like Google Sky Map and Gameboid, it never effects the files on your SD card.

as far as I know its not actually unmounting the card, obv we're running android from the card so therefore all sorts of problems would occur no??
I think it just pretends to unmount the card......
not entirely sure though....
Either way, Ive never had any issues.
Also unmounting drastically improves the speed of marketplace downloads......
Not been able to install this bloody game though........... about to try unmounting.
Ive been told it can be installed via ADB, however this involves dl'ing the entire android SDK....... all for a 12meg game about bloody birds........
anyway..... lol
Is there any website to download this game and then install it? I download it fine but installation is unsuccessful ...

Method 1: Go to settings and unmount your SD card. Then open the Market and Download and Install Angry Birds, this will be succesfull and afterwards you can mount your SD Card again.
Method 2: Download Angry Birds (http://www.mediafire.com/?6e1yfy5yg6912nk) and copy it to your SD Card. Next, move the file from the SD Card to internal memory with ASTRO or any file manager. You can place it in the 'cache' folder or something like that. Then unmount your SD card, go to the folder and install the .apk. After the installation is complete, you can mount your SD card again
P.S. Unmounting your SD card will not shut down your Android or make you lose any settings/features. You can safely mount and unmount the SD Card

It'd be nice to get SD Card to unmount on my hd2 with mccm 1.5 build :/ ...
It says unmounting in progress and that's about it - never unmounts it and if I exit and come back to settings - shows option available to unmount - so no angry birds for me

Angry birds

I am getting unsuccessful installation.
Searched the forum and found this answer

But it cant apply to us since we CANT UNMOUNT SD CARD since Android is on it.
So what are you guys doing to make it work?
you still can un mount your card with android running.

Or use the new Hastarin kernel 8.2
When Android boots up, it puts Android into the RAM rather than run off the flash card. Unmount the SD card after boot, install the app, then re-mount it. Then all is fine!

USB Mass Storage mode CANNOT work - the phone runs Android off of the SD, hence the SD needs to be mounted for Android to work. Just in WinMo when the SD is unmounted from WinMo when you plug it in, the exact same thing would happen in Android - and then Android wouldn't be able to function... make sense?
You can use ADB with USB, but that is it. It's useful for debugging...

when you connect to pc via usb cable choose disc drive on phone and wait for pop up
you can then put apk files onto sd card then disconnect and navigate to apk with file explorer, open and install,
you will also have to check unknown sources in applications settings
If you are using normal froyo app2sd. Settings > applications > manage applications > go to an app and pick move to sd.
But are apps in SD slower than apps in phone?
If you have a slow sd card and the app has to support froyo app to sd

Since all the apps cant be installed to sd card, therefore i recommend you download "app2sd enabler" from the market. after downloading it, just go to settings>applications>manage applications. and you can move you desired apps to sd card.
I have done it with the following tutorial

If you do the following MOD, Applications which support them self to install in SD card will automatically goes to SD card.
http://nmobilephones.com/applicatio...tall-applications-to-the-sd-card-by-default-2
Applications which do not have support must be installed to phone first and then have to moved to SD card through Application Manager.
