I am getting a constant barrage that tells me "Unfortunately, Weather has stopped". I assume it's the app on my home screen that was installed automatically. This message will not stop and repeats so quickly I am unable to do anything, literally. I have to pull the battery and reboot. Please help.
Usually a corrupt cache. The following procedure will resolve most xxxx app has stopped error messages.
If you are using a weather widget on your homescreen, drag it to the trashcan. Then go into the settings menu > applications > all > application manager > weather and click force stop, then clear cache, then clear data.
Then boot to recovery mode (pull battery, replace it, then press and hold in order the volume up key, then the home key, then the power key). Once the screen turns on, release the keys and from recovery mode, wipe the partition cache (or wipe cache + Dalvik if you have a custom recovery).
That should clear up corrupt or messed up weather settings. You will have to drag your weather widget to your homescreen again to replace it.

Thank you so much for answering. The sign happens so quickly and so frequently it's extremely challenging, but I was able to delete it from my home screen. The app manager only lists downloaded apps and I think the one causing the problems is part of the standard package as I don't see it there.
I did find running apps. I did not see any weather apps. Things started happening so quickly that there is no time to do anything.

Not true. If you choose the "all" column instead of the "downloaded" column, you would see all of the apps.
settings menu > applications > application manager > all > weather
And no, you will not get special attention by PMing me. Further requests for tech support by PM will be ignored. Everyone benefits when questions are posed and answered in the forum. If you are impatient, consider doing a search of the forum as this question, like most, has been asked and answered many times before. So hard as it is to click on search, there is a wealth of helpful information in existing threads.

Is it just my phone, or is it after the market had updated itself, apps under "My Apps" are missing?
If it's just me, does anyone know how to fix this issue? I got like maybe 3/4 of my apps there, where did the 1/4 go!? I can still use the apps that aren't on the list though.
Hmmm...
Did you press menu in the market?

That happens to me sometimes too. A restart usually fizes it I think. Either that or just waiting. I bet a *#*checkin#*#* would do it too.
I think it's a dropped or broken connection with the market as it's reporting/loading your apps.
Easy fix.. Go to Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications and on top press the tab for "All" then scroll down until you see Market. Press it. Then press the tab to Clear Cache then Clear Data. Go Home and then go to the Market. It will ask to Accept the Terms of Service. Once you do and the Market loads go to your apps and you should see all of them.

Yup. This worked for me too when I manually updated to the latest version of the Market app. But then I remembered that I just flashed to a new ROM and didn't restore my apps from Titanium yet and it caused a big mess LOL
Since there are several post discussing this I have opened this thread instead answering the same on all of them.
To get all apps (at least all I have looked for ) you only have to follow the steps described.
1. Go to Manage Applications (in settings/applications)
2. Press the running tab and select market (if market is not running execute it)
3. Select Market from running apps. And:
Press Clear Cache
Press Force Stop
4. Go back and Select Google Services Framework. And:
Press Clear Data (answer ok on the message warning)
Press Force Stop
5. Try to run Market. You will get an error message.
6. Reboot the device and run market twice (the first one you will get the error message again).
Here you have a video performing this steps on a wits device:
Nice one, it works a treat I spent hours changing the market package trying to get it to work. I will add it to my market, small taskbar thread (many thanks to you of course)
Peace.
So I was bothered by not having a home button on screen of CM7 on the Kindle, so I was looking around setting and saw that you can add custom application launching on long press of the search button at the bottom. Awesome right? So I went over to the market, ran a search for "Home Button" and downloaded the first one on the list and assigned it to the long press for search button. Now I can get to the home screen on ease!
Is CM7 worth the install though? I mean with no audio functionality and misc. other bugs still, why not just keep your kfire rooted running a launcher like GO ex or ICS launcher?
Serious question as I'm still new to all this. Kfire is my first experience into the android/smartphone/tablet world. But love the hack/mod'ing. I want a new rom but not sure if the recently released CM7 is worth it right now.
I guess my real question is, why did you decide to go ahead and start using CM7?
You can easily add home button through settings on CM7. Settings - Cyanogen Settings - Tablet Tweaks - Choose soft buttons and check /uncheck the buttons you would like.
Yay thankx.

Thanks! The only thing is when I go to Settings>Cyanogen Settings it automatically force closes:
"The applications Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Funny thing is, I can go into Settings and select any of the other categories, i.e. Display, Applications, Accounts & Sync, etc. But when I select Cyanogen Settings I get a force close... any ideas?

I have the exact same problem. As a temporary solution I'm pressing the power button down for 1 second. This brings up a menu with a shortcut to the home screen.
I don't expect to be able to solve the problem of opening the CM Settings, but I'm looking for a way to enable the home button from the shell.

Did you clear the Cache and Dalvik Cache when you flashed the CM7 ROM?
I'm wondering if this has to do with the FC. Generally speaking you should do this when flashing new ROMs just to purge previous ROM data.

Yes I did. I was suprised to find that the app's i'd installed under KF standard were still installed. Does that mean I did the clear incorrectly?
I'm going to try re-installing again and see if anything changes.

Dalvik is the base running platform for android apps, and the Dalvik cache normally houses user data and app settings. Wiping it should clear everything from a previous flash if done correctly.
Make sure you are wiping it before you boot into your newly flashed ROM to avoid anything wonky happening.

I'm using TWRP2 to flash the the CM7 update.zip. After a minute or so I get the option to "Wipe Cache/Dalvik".
I've just done this for the third time and noticed that the output from the wipe operation ends with:
Code:
/sd-ext not present, skipping
I don't know if that is significant.
I have also tried wiping the cache first from the TWRP2 wipe menu.

Getting a CM Settings forceclose?
I was having this exact same issue while using TWRP2.0 to install CM7. I was wiping system, cache and dalvik cache... just like everyone was saying. I figured out that you have to do Factory Reset as well. Once you do all four steps: Wipe System, Cache, Dalvik Cache and do a Factory Reset, CM7 installed perfectly and the CM settings no longer force closes.
See if that works for you.

That works perfectly! Even Amazon Appstore working now when it wasn't before.

So I sideloaded the Google Dialer from the Nexus devices on my rooted Verizon Galaxy S5. I downloaded the APK, copied it to /system/priv-app, changed the permissions to 644 (rw-r--r--), then ran the APK to install the dialer. I tried launching both from the app drawer and through Nova's shorcut, Actions, Google Dialer and then the first phone option; both ways loads the launcher and then immediately crashes with the error "Unfortunately, Google Dialer has stopped." Has anybody had any success getting the Google Dialer to work on their Galaxy S5? If so, any workarounds that you had to do to get it to work or did it just work? I'm wondering if it's because I froze a bloatware or installed an app that's causing a conflict. My stock Samsung dialer works fine, but I'm not a fan of that dialer and I like the local business search feature of the Google Dialer.
I installed it, but it crashes as soon as I try to search for a person (type any key and crash). I'm not really interested in rooting my phone til CM is ready, but I hear you need to to get it working properly.
Crashing here too, something with S5 firmware or software?
Same here
I'm on a Verizon Galaxy S5 rooted with GEL and I tried making a shortcut to the Google Dialer with QuickShortcutMaker. The dialer crashes every time. Would love to be able to use the Google Dialer again. Coming from CM11 on a Galaxy Nexus.
To stop it crashing, you need to clear your system caches.
Go to the Applications manager in the Settings menu and find the Google dialer in the "all" column
Choose force stop > clear cache > clear data
Now reboot to recovery mode (power phone down, then volume up + home + power)
And select clear cache
Then a normal reboot and you should be good
.
I am having a problem with the stock Samsung dailer, it crashes at least once whenever making a call. I tried clearing the cache that helped for a little bit but now the issue is back,. Any idea of how to get rid of this problem permanently?

Dear all,
I have an Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S5 with ATT G900A. I've rooted and i tried to unlock the Wifi HotSpot for my phone. During the process, by mistake, i delete this file TetheringProvision 4.06.72 (TetheringProvision.apk and TetheringProvision.odex).
Now the Mobile HotSpot is showing this error "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped."
Can someone advice what should i do ?
Thank you very much!!!

Well you ought to have a backup method so that you can easily revert changes that don't work out. In the meanwhile, perhaps rename or move files, rather than delete them. Again to facilitate recovery from any mishaps.
At this point, you could download the full ATT firmware, extract those files and replace them on your phone.
Also note that clearing the app and system caches can help. Settings > Applications > Application mgr > all > (app name) > force stop > clear cache > clear data.
Then reboot to recovery mode (phone powered off, then press and hold volume up + home + power) and clear the system cache from the onscreen menu.
.
but if i download the full ATT firmware it will block my Phone back with ATT only ?
Where i can download ATT firmware ?
Thank you
