I have a KF with the latest (last week) install of CM7, very impressed with it. I am running the Go keyboard, it's rooted, TWRP installed.
With some specific applications, I'm getting force close when I run them. Specifically, when I run the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corp.) news application, and also NPR, public radio.
They will sometimes run if I close it and then run it again.
During the install of CM7, I know it clears the cache and dalvik cache, but once I started to get these FC's, I cleared them again through the TWRP menu. Still get the forced close.
Any idea why this happens, and why some applications are more prone to it than others?

So I recently installed Blackhole 1.2 rom with the 11/6 non voodoo stable kernel and revolution theme. Since the reboot, I keep getting a market force close error. I tried doing a restore, but the same issue comes up. I also tried installing a different kernel (JT1134 Test 11/11 non voodoo), but still the same issue. If i try to do a cache and data wipe, my phone freeze's during the data wipe in clockwork mod, or a force close loop through standard recovery. Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Seems without adding anything to my A7, in the past day it is literally non stop FC'ing on the above process. I hit Force Close and it keeps coming back (not immediately, more like randomly without 10-25 seconds). Only thing I've did extra n the tablet lately is play Angry Birds. Should I try to clear it's DB even though I haven't loaded it today? Also would like to state that I have rebooted and even shut down the tablet, and it still does it.
what have you done to it? stock firmware update? DexterMod? Stock fresh out of the box?

Guess in my first version of this thread, before I edited it, I had that information (morning brain fart).
DexterMod v1.3 + BT Fix
Worked fine yesterday morning then it started FCing out of the blue. I've begun (even though none of the apps were installed immediately prior to the FCs) uninstalling widgets that I installed. Next is to start on programs (I did however uninstall Button Savior as I know it loads on startup so I was thinking that was causing it even though it had been on the device for a couple days running flawlessly).
Got tired of messing with it. Did a Cache Partition Wipe and Device Wipe and it's back to normal DexterMod v1.3. This seems to have resolved the issue so it must have been something with one of the databases on the applications that I had installed. Will see once I reload all my apps.
Nookcolor with MN 4.5.25, 1.1 overclocked kernel. I had the market problem, but 4.5.25 cleared it up. It worked fine for a week or so. Then yesterday all of "My apps" disappeared from market except the several I paid for. I did the 4.5.25 market fix several times and the rename Vending.apk fix a couple of times, no cigar (I'm aware of the risk of appearing insane, so I won't keep doing the same thing over and over, at least not too many times). On the desktop Android Market, my account, "My Orders" shows only these same paid apps and two free apps (with no rhyme or reason as to which two, except both have been uninstalled by me). If this isn't clear to you, I am talking about the list of the apps I have downloaded on market. All of my apps are working fine on the NC.
If I find the rest of my apps on Android Market on the desktop, all are marked "installed". But they simply will not appear, no matter what I do, on the NC or on the "My Orders" screen on the desktop.
Short of downloading each again (my time, ambition, patience, and data allowance are limited) how can I restore the apps to list on "My apps" on the NC and "My Orders" on the desktop?
I have a Titanium backup taken a few days before the failure. Is this information kept in some data area in the NC and sync'ed to market? Could I restore an app or that app's data and get my apps back in sync? I hesitate to restore everything, as I am beginning to believe that I am digging a hole.
Waiting patiently for some informative responses, DaveD
I haven't resolved this problem, and am still waiting for suggestions. In the meantime, an additional problem. Whenever I install a new app, downloaded in the standard manner from market, market will then appear briefly when I try to load it again, then disappear. I then have to restore the market.apk with Titanium, after which i will work again until the next time I install an app. I will now see in the my apps section the same several paid for apps plus any additional that I have installed since the problem first occurred.
Please help if you can. I would like to fix this. DaveD
I am trying to figure out the best way to backup my data and apps.
I am between using Titannium Backup or Backup Pro.
Any suggestions....?
Also,
Do you know what's the easiest way to reboot into recovery mode?
I'm running CM7 off SD card. Tried the Power and N button combination, with no luck also tried selecting reboot into recovery mode from CM7 desktop.
Which backup?
Since no one else is responding, I'll give you my recommendation based on limited experience. I like Titanium, and after installing it quickly paid for the Pro version, for the simple reason that it allows multiple backups, which I consider necessary in any backup program. I don't know about backup pro. But overall, among the two dozen or so apps I run, both free and paid, Titanium Pro appears to be the highest quality of them all.
Regarding rebooting into recovery mode, I don't know how else to reboot . See the next item in this thread for additional info on that.
Well, since no one is either interested enough or can help, I took the plunge and fixed it myself. If there is any interest, here is the only answer I could come up with.
First, I tried selectively restoring system apps with Titanium. I ended up restoring 20 or so. All that did was got me deeper into it. At the end I could no longer download apps--it would come up with the infamous "starting download" and that was the end of it.
So I decided to start from scratch, attempting to revert the Nook to it's original 1.1 out-of-the-box unregistered version. I followed the directions in the Nook Wiki (don't remember the two items and don't have time to go looking, as will be the case with a lot of the explanation below). I started with the ADB interface and entered the reboot failure 8 count from the desktop, upon which it rebooted, but did so into ClockWorkMod recovery, and recovered to the MN 4.5.25 system I was trying to get rid of. So, ignorant as I am about how all this works, I did the eight reboot failures manually, same thing, same thing. Now, I guess I could have gone in and uninstalled ClockWorkMod, but didn't think of that. So next time I tried it (third), I had recovery reset all data and cache. Then when I rebooted I was in NookColor stock 1.2, without rooting. But every time I tried to get back to out-of-the-box 1.1, I entered recovery again.
Now, withe the expectation that I could reinstall MN for the express purpose of killing ClockWorkMod recovery, then go about following the directions in Wiki which should work, I MN'ed it. Upon reemerging into MN, market worked! So I installed the 1.1Ghz kernel, and started reinstalling the apps, which I am still doing. No need to go back to the 1.1 clean level, as far as I have seen. Some of the old apps are still there, but most are gone. Again, no rhyme or reason as to which apps. But it works.
I could reinstall the old apps from Titanium, which I did for Dolphin merely to get the latest Beta 5.0.6 back and for the bookmarks, but for the most part am reinstalling from market, as I need for market to be aware of the apps I have.
Bottom line, it is much easier to wipe the Nook (provided you get ClockWorkMod out of the way first) and reinstall apps then to spend hours upon hours trying to figure out how to fix a market problem. Market is nice and solid with 4.5.25; I hope it stays that way this time (I don't know what caused the original failure, but I am highly suspicious that it was operator error)! I guess a clean wipe and reinstall to 4.5.25, including an overclocking kernel and apps, will take an hour or so, less if you reinstall apps from backups.

titanium pro is the only way to go. buy it!. I had back up pro before and had to uninstall it because it would not reinstall from time to time. titanium pro always works and with the pay version you can batch activities not like the free version where you'll have to do it one by one. anyway, if you restoring with titanium pro remember to restore apps only and not the data. you don't want to pass on bad data to your fresh flash.
with the market did you try to clear cache in application manager? sometime this will help. go to settings / application / manage application / view all and scroll down to market and clear cache and data. I also think you'll need to clear cache and data with google services framework, but I forget, not sure.
for flashing nighties (only if you're going from cm to cm) all you have to do is wipe partition cache, not data and wipe dalvik cache and flash your new nightie. all of your app will be there. I hope this helped a little. good luck.

Hi all,
I have a problem on my HD2 with CyanogenMod 7 (v 2.6)
When installing it on my phone everything was working perfectly.
but now... 4 months later, when i go to the menu, browse to Applications, and pressing Manage Applications or Active Services, the menu fades away, and returning to the Applications menu, there is no way of going into that menu.
Rebooting doesn't give any solution.
Does anyone recognize this issue, or know how to fix it?
Alright, Do you use CWM?
Do a backup.
Wipe Cache,
Under advanced:
Wipe Dalvik-Cache, Fix permissions.
Try again, booting will take longer, explanation by Cyanogen:
When Android starts up, the DalvikVM looks thru all of your applications (.apk files) and frameworks, and builds a tree of dependencies. It uses this dependency tree to optimize the bytecode for every application and stores it in the Dalvik cache. The applications are then run using the optimized bytecode. This is why when you install a new ROM, sometimes it takes a very long time to boot for the first time. Any time an application (or framework library) changes, it's reoptimized and the cache is updated.

Try if it works, if not, reflash the rom (that's why you did the backup), and clear those caches again, and fix permissions.
Good luck
I do have Rom Manager, when i want to backup it asked me to install CWM.
after installation and running the backup tool it rebooted without any messages.
I try get into the recovery mode, but i am failing doing that.
in the aMAGLDR v1.12 i held the Power button for a couple of seconds.
a menu appears.. there are 10 options, but non of them is related to AD Recovery.
what do i wrong?
BTW.. it's funny to see you as living in the same place
oops.. i think i screwed up some things..
In the rom manager menu, i selected the Fix Permissions item.
After a couple of minutes and applying of permissions i had to reboot the phone.
..and now it is in a reboot-loop.
Hi guys
I'm having problems I guess CM7 related, maybe you have experienced one ot them (or all like me):
- SNESdroid: It doesn't work, when I try to load ROM I get a black screen and I have to kill the app
- GoLauncherEx: It works fine but I can't change themes because it doesn't do anything. If I try to add an app to desktop by the menu of GoLauncher it try to load apps list but exit immediately, and get same behaviour if I try to go to preferences of GoLauncher
- Games: After 15 min aprox of playing some games (AngryBirds, TripleTown) the cellphone get locked and I have to press power button to unlock it and the game quits
When I installed CM7 I didn't did 'wipe dalvik cache' since in [1] says anything about that, I tried yestarday doing 'wip dalvik cache' from 2init but it doesn't change anything
I'd like to know if the bugs are app related, CM7 related (or I did a bad installation). SNESdroid is the most important for me, do you manage to got it working?
Thanks in advance

this happened to me, once. Nothing really seemed to work except a fresh install of CM7, by the book, and note... you need to wipe Dalvik cache before you flash the rom, or it won't work right.
Fixed

That was it, I have to reflash the build again. Currently I have CM 7.2 Nightly and it works pretty good. Thanks for your post mankymoo
PD: Can a mod mark this as solved please?
