[Q] CM 10.1 ROM Gmail problems - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've recently installed CM 10.1 nightly build, the most recent, on my Nexus 4. I am experiencing only problems with gmail, when I attempt to open the application, it loads then crashes every time. It is becoming very disturbing and making me not want to use this ROM. If anyone else is experiencing this issue can you tell me below to get this thread popular so someone might find a fix? And if you've fixed it, can you let me know how?
Thanks, Eric.
EDIT: I'm also realizing that almost all of my GAPPS are not functioning whatsoever. I did a restore of my apps and system and shared to get all my apps back, but now half of them are incomplete for some reason (no icon and non functioning) and the rest work fine though.

If this is your first flash of CM 10.1, you also needed to flash the 11/30 gapps that they point you to in their OP

lol dude another "i flashed xyz rom and now everything is broken" thread

Hey everyone learns one way or another here at q&a. Heck, I'm still asking questions myself

If you backed up everything in Stock, then it will be tricky when you try to restore in Cyanogenmod. You can restore downloaded apps and data safely. But you may start running into problems when you begin to restore system apps, system data, and system settings.

Many Apps Saying "Incompatible With Your Device"

Is anyone else having the problem mentioned here after flashing CM7?
one of the main apps i use is the BB&T mobile banking app, but now its no longer compatible with my droid 2.
I have cleared caches, reinstalled CM7 changed market apps, done everything i thought possible and cant download it for some reason.
any help would be awesome if anyone knows anything about this issue.
I have read on other threads about this being a common issue with CM7, which if it is, i may have to revert back to stock 2.3 until its resolved.

Help installing ArmSense_XE_0.6.130 ROM

Noob alert. First post, first rom.
Thought it about time I had a go at hacking my Hero and thought I’d better start with a rom that seemed stable. I chose the ArmSense_XE_0.6.130 Android2.3.5+sense3.5 on this forum.
Root and install of the custom recovery was painless.
Flashed this rom and all seemed well. The first thing I thought I’d try was maps, as I want to check gps functionality, but no maps app to be found. I then remember reading in this forum that custom roms rarely contain the Google apps. I found, downloaded and flashed the 20110828 version of gapps (in the same way as I flashed the initial rom, but without doing a wipe first, I hope this is right).
Still no maps. I know they can be downloaded from the market (play), but the market app seems to fail. When I select it the screen goes white for a few seconds and then returns without displaying any error. Not wanting to give up I visited play via the browser, but this would not let me download directly to the phone either, as it reported that I must use the phone app to visit the site first.
I’ve obviously visited the market many times before on this phone, and am sure I set my Google account up properly during the setup. (though googlemail has changed to gmail during the time between I originally setup the phone and now).
The upshot of all this is that I have these questions:
Generally have I done the right things?
Should I have the maps and come to that gmail, which I now notice is also missing?
Any ideas on the problem with the market app?
And lastly, I was sort of expecting the same clock as shown on the op of the ArmSense_XE development thread be the default, but this is not the case. I quite like it. What is it and where does it come from?
Restored to my original stock 2.1 configuration for now.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
The ROM you choose is far from being stable, that's why it's marked with the version ArmSense_XE_0.6.130.
Please check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343988
I'm using the SHPONGLE v3.5 and I'm quite satisfied.
M
Thank you for the advice. Downloading it now.
I have the right gapps package I guess and will need to add it to this rom too?
Cheers
Hi,
The ROM already have gapps light, meaning that you can register your account and access Google Play.
Then you can download the apps you need like Maps, Youtube, Gmail, whatsoever...
M
Got it working now.
Apart from a little niggle with the lock screen (probably me being unfamiliar) it all seems very fast and smooth.
Thank you for your advice.
SHPONGLE v3.5 is by far the fastest 2.3.7 on Hero in my (very fresh) experience.

[Q] Facebook Messenger force closes.

I downloaded and flashed 'cm-11-20140922-NIGHTLY-jflte' (which I know is not as stable as a snapshot but the snapshot was stuck in a reboot loop when I installed it so I had to revert to the nightly) onto my previously stock phone and everything is fine, I can't believe I haven't had a custom rom sooner. However, the ONE app I have problems with is Facebook Messenger; it opens, but crashes when it goes to load my details in and force closes from that point on. It wouldn't be such an issue if I could still interact with people through the Facebook app, but you're forced to use the Messenger app, which seriously will not work at all for some reason.
I've tried reflashing the ROM, clearing the data and cache, cloaking the fact that the device is rooted, installing an earlier version of Messenger and just about everything I could think of. I'm at a complete loss, I don't know what's wrong. I thought maybe something to do with it accessing my contacts or something but I'm really not sure.
Any help will be appreciated, it seems stupid but Messenger is an important part of my phone, I use it daily, so if I can't get this figured out I might have to go back to stock. Thanks in advance guys!

Works great thank you for the work. Also wondering about the advanced calling feature, but thanks for everything so far.
Advanced/Video calling
I'm having issues with advanced calling on this ROM as well. I was not able to get it working on BOD5, so perhaps it is the same issue. Any new input?
Great, but no Side load apps
You can side load apps on the original BOE build, but after installing the MODS_V2, you can side load anything. It does not allow you to click on the install button, bottom right hand of the screen
---------------
Edit:
This Version of the BOE build does not allow you to side load apps

Restarting with alarm.
I'm also having issues with the phone restarting at times when my alarm is alarming. I noticed this same issue on your BOC4 build, but didn't mention it because I updated to your BOD5 build. I didn't have this issue on the BOD5 build. I believe the issue is related to themes. I used your themes on BOC4 and BOE1, but not on BOD5, which may be the reason why I never experienced the concern in BOD5. I'm using Alarm Clock Plus, if that is helpful at all. I'm going to dirty flash the BOE1 ROM without themes and see if that fixes the concern. I'd love to use your themes if possible, but it isn't a deal-breaker.
Dirty flashing the ROM without theming appears to have solved the issue.

Does anyone else have any issues with app updates not staying updated? After I update my apps and reset the phone, it takes forever to reboot, and it optimizes the same number of apps. When the phone finally boots back up, it tells me that those same apps need to be updated. I had this issue in the past, maybe on OC4, but I never found the cause. I am not themed anymore, so it isn't related to my theme issues.
Deleting the apps and reinstalling them does not fix the issue. I did backup the apps with TiBu, delete them, reinstall them from the play store, then restore data only. I'll give it a shot without restoring any data this time.
Deleting the apps and reinstalling them without restoring data did not work either. Also, I updated the play store using Aptoide, and that update sticks, but it did not fix the problem. The other apps appear to stick when updating with Aptoide, but it still shows them as needing to be updated in the play store.

I had the same issue. After trying everything, I whiped and re-flashed the rom and everything has been working great since.
volume warning
Any chance of getting a volume warning mod, hate those.
straight talk
call straight talk and have them reset your data access, I've had to do this almost every flash of a rom but once you get your rom good, make sure the network mode is in lte/cdma not global. I've had good data for a while now with the kinks worked out, but you have to call straight talk to reset.
Fingerprint lock screen
nice rom, thou it looks like fingerprint lockscreen is broken. It just sticks to "swipe" to unlock when you set it to use fingerprint unlock.
Try flashing muniz_ri's g900v ROM first to get advanced calling working. That contains an actual image of the system partition, so you might have more luck.
Updates not sticking semi-fix.

I figured out what causes the symptoms, but I'm not sure what causes the actual issue. I wiped the "system only," and re-flashed the ROM, but that didn't fix it. After doing some reading on other devices, I looked in the /data/app folder and found multiple apps had multiple data folders. The only apps with multiple folders were the ones that would not keep the updates after restart. There was a separate folder for every time I attempted to update the app, some as high as 15 folders. That explained why my storage space plummeted recently lol. I deleted all the duplicate folders and kept only the most recent folders, then the updates stuck after reboot! I had another occasion where the same occurrence happened, but I knew how to fix it at that point. I didn't like the thought of it possibly continuing to do this, so I backed everything up, did a factory reset today, and restored all my apps and data. I had a few updates afterwards, all of them are sticking after reboot, and I don't have any duplicate folders.
Bottom line: The issue lies in the user data partition, not in the system. Re-flashing or wiping the system will NOT fix this.
I don't know the actual cause of the duplicate folders being created in the first place. Other threads for other devices have mentioned similar issues and some have stated that odex files in the /data/app folder cause the issue. Maybe jrkruse can explain, because I'm baffled.
Hello, I updated to latest 5 android and now my lte doesn't work, I'm in russia now, but it worked on 4.4 , so , can I use this firmware to Odin my s5 verizone ?
Can xposed work with this and if so what are the install steps?
Quick Connect option
I have been looking for the Quick Connect option. How can I add it back? Thanks in advance for any assistance. Love the ROM by the way. Thanks for the great work.
Can I update from origin BOE1 ? I installed boe1 using Odin, and now is it posible to flash this via Odin?

Unable to load webpages

As stated in the title, I can't load any web pages in Chrome, Firefox, and several other browsers. My wifi is fully functional, but I can't load anything related to web pages. So using the XDA App, I can browse the fourms fine, but if I were to open a link to Google or anything, it will crash and return to the XDA App. This occurs when I try opening links from apps like Facebook as well.
At first, I thought this was a ROM problem or something to do with my apps, so I format and decrypted my phone and clean flashed OOS 5.0.4. It seems to work well for some time, but returned a good hour later. Restarting each time it happens seems to fix it for a short while, but I am quite annoyed of constantly restarting because of this.
I've searched around and it doesn't seem like anyone else has this particular problem with their OP5s so I'd like to fix this up if I can.
I am still on OOS 5.0.4, but now with NewKernel 1.29 from the OP5T thread. I'm also rooted with Magisk beta v16.2 and have the Pixel 2 Oreo WiFi v4, OnePlus Camera M, NotoColorEmoji Patch Modules along with a systemless font module installed.
@StarzSkyz have you tried another network like mobile or other wifi?

Yeah, each time it happens I try swapping from WiFi to data, but no difference. I'm currently trying to see if it was due to restoring a certain backup from Titanium Backup. I did recently find a post speaking of the problem, but for the use of debloater somehow affecting it. So it may also be due to the loss a system app.

You said you did already a clean installtion. So clean install again without any restore of settings and 3rd party apps not provided by the rom :good:

I feel like an idiot for not remembering about doing that.
I've clean flashed and left all the apps enabled and the problem hasn't appeared again. After taking a TWRP backup of that (just in case I mess up something again) I rooted without any modules other than the WiFi Mod(which I did feel like it being one of the causes, but it helped with connection speed) and the systemless font module and tried restoring only user app data(so a fresh install from the play store and then a app data restore, not touching system apps at all) and thankfully it didn't cause any problems, so I got to restore some data back.
Thank you for the advice of actually just clean flashing again, cause I was actually slowly uninstalling and restoring my apps. I apologise for not posting as soon as I found the fully clean installation working, as I really couldn't help myself and try see if it was due to having root and my user apps. Once again, thank you for your help with my problem here. If it appears again, I'll probably post here again if it happens again (hopefully it doesn't).
