HTC EVO, OMJ FROYO 2.2, Google Contact Sync

Hello,
I recently updated to OMJ's Froyo 2.2 ROM v2.1, FroYo 3.26.651.6 (august 4th) and afterwards, I kept getting a "sync is unavailable" error, when I would try to sync my google contacts.
This is the answer I found after an hour and a half.
1. Settings
2. Applications
3. Manage Applications
4. Running TAB
5. Scroll down to "Contacts Storage"
6. click on the "Clear Data" button (should zero out.) may or may not start increasing in size almost immediately
7. go back to settings
8. choose "Accounts & Sync"
9. choose "Google"
10. Sync your contacts if it hasn't already started by itself

THANK YOU! WHAT A PAIN! I thought I broke something when I rooted.

SetCPU won't start on boot

Ok this is driving me crazy, I've tried reinstalling/clearing data but nothing is working. And yes I have 'set on boot' checked.
Has anyone had this issue or have an email to the dev?

Had the same issue, if you don't have profiles enabled you will not have an icon in the tray. Also, with my case, for some reason the setcpu task was disabled using my AUTOSTARTS app. I would check either of those first.
You said you cleared data, was that through recovery menu or the "manage applications" entry for setcpu? Try clearing CACHE, DALVIK and the manage applications data clear...

I have noticed that if you have the widget in use it will do this, and you have to click on it for it to set. I removed the widget and it seems to be fine now.

I have never used the widget, I do have profiles enabled, it is not disabled in autostarts, and I have tried both wiping cache/dalvic from recovery and wiping app cache in settings.
Not sure what else to try.

[Q] Market keeps showing "Installing" status

Today, when I check the updates of the apps, I found that this app keeps showing "installing" but the app has been installed properly yesterday.
I tried several ways to solve it but all doesn't works.
1.) Restart
2.) Unmount & Remount SD card
3.) Uninstalled it by Titanium Backup
4.) Restore the app with older version
5.) Kill "Market" in Taskiller
But all of these cannot solve the problem.
Current rom: mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense 1.8
Does anyone know how to solve it? thanks in advance.

1. go to your settings
2. select "applications"
3. then select "manage applications"
4. press menu and select "filter" then "All"
5. scroll down to:
- "Market" then select "clear cache"
- "Market" then select "clear data"
Problem fixed!

Worked to fix my problem!
Thanks a million

Excellent
Fixed it... great!!

Doesn't that also clean your settings in the market? I've read that someone had done this and the whole market just hung up.

Thanks!
Worked great for my EVO. I had deleted an app and when I went back into the market to install it, it kept saying install.

my solution is re-sign google talk .

[Q] MN5 - Downloaded market Apps won't install

I have a new Nook Color running 1.4.2 and followed the instructions with CWM 3.2.0.1 and MN 5.02.19. Everything looks good except apps won't install. I see the Android market and have downloaded all apps from my Google account. I can see they are downloaded but when I try to install, nothing happens.
I've used NookColor Tools to force stop, clear data and clear cache in the Market app but still can't install.
Edit: I've reinstalled with the apps2sd version plus the stock kernel. Still no joy. Have spent an entire day getting nowhere. I see that NookColor Tool doesn't have any hidden white text on a white background. It's all white text on black background. Toggleing the tick box doesn't seem to do anything.
Can anyone please help me?

heh... toggling that select box breaks app installs for me. I fixed it by rerunning the sd-boot root again. After the root, just verify that the box is selected.
There's also the solution from old_fart
you try clearing the cache and data of both the Google Play Store app and the Download manager
1.Visit Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage applications
2.Tab over to "All"
3.Select the Google Play Store app, and then tap "Clear data" and "Clear cache;" then, select Download manager and tap "Clear data" and "Clear cache"​
Good luck

Thanks Ron, I do remember the select box in NookColor Tool was already ticked after I ran the sd-boot root. I'll try once more.....Could the problem be that the Market isn't updating to Google Play Store? I'm stuck with the old Android Market. I can see my paid-for apps but it won't download them for installation. Can I force an update?
ps. old_fart's solution didn't work for me

Third time lucky....I tried the root again and this time I didn't toggle the NookColor Tool tick box. Market started it's upgrade to Play Store within seconds and Angry Birds installed first time. Thanks Ron
