Can't install Android apps :(

Hey guys I have a HD2 and I was able to install the NexusHD2-Gingerbread ROM on there.
I've only been able to install TweetDeck and Stumbleupon.
Anything else I click the free button, then okay, then it says downloading and it never installs the app.
Any help?

It was the market that was down. At least that's what I can tell. Anyways, try again, it should work.

Thanks, I was able to install a couple then it wouldn't let me install some others, I assume it's down again?

HEY bro im using this rom for like 3 weeks now and its been working great, got that problem you got a few days ago installing one app to check the batt stats. downloading from applanet never had this prob.. so lets not be too quick to blame the rom when half the games and some apps we install dont work on gingerbread anyway..

[Q] Why I have missing featured apps ???

I need your help guys and devs for one problem. I had to downgrade from wildhero (2.3.3 sense) to 2.1 cuz I needed more stable rom for a few days. I choosed one and flashed it, but the market didn't show most of the featured apps, like Skype, My Tracks, Google Sky Map, Xda devs, Tapatalk and many more. I used Search and it's the same - they're not in the results.I thought its location problem but it isn, cuz after a lot flashing different roms I haven't any problems till now. Tried 3 different 2.1 sense roms - its the same - same missing apps. Now when I flashed back this wildhero 2.3.3 sense rom (ver1.2.1) everything is fine , like it should be. I think its 2.3.3 Sense problem , somehow it restricts old android`s version market.. its wired... could you help me somehow ?? please its important to know !!

It is probably due to the fact that those apps need a newer API so it restricts you from downloading it to your phone with an older firmware.
BTW, you said you use Skype? Do you start getting it getting choppy after 30 seconds? I am trying to use it with Fusion (offshoot of Froyo) on my HTC Hero and am finding that happening. What OS are you using?
Thanks,
A

Yeah, mate , I supposed so, but I'm looking for solution. Skype is running well, even very well surprisingly, I'm using WildHero 1.2.1 now, but with older roms like VillianRom12 and 13 was running well too.

P.S. I noticed that when I search for something , in this case were Skype, Sky Map, Astro file manager, and few other apps - the results are all in japanese, korean or chinese language and nothing to do with the searched word .. isnt that strange .. ??? I'm from Bulgaria , far away from these countries.

hmm i had the same prob to when i tried wildhero 2.3.3 no market and gmail etc
i donwloaded a rom with gapps and they didnt show up when i flashed the apps when i downloaded a rom with gapps included i didnt had the problem so maybe you should try a rom with gapps included

Fixed it , I unrooted the phone as downgraded to official Cupcake for Hero, Then followed the online updates.

Swype Beta

Apparently, the new beta will not work if we've already got it installed.
Shame as some of the add-ons and tweaks sound like a good step forward.
Anyone got any ideas if they'll ever update the versions we've got preinstalled? or is it simply waiting on it to leave beta and end up in the store?

With the SGS1, swype was updated whenever the firmware was updated.

It works, you just have to "force install" it.

I've been using it for over a week now. Works great. Can't sync with Facebook (to get custom words) but other than that I'm typing away.

how do u guys get the new version 3 to install? I download the Installer from Swype.com by login to my account. Then when i run it, it say to disable swype first but i was unable to do that.
Thanks 4 the help!

you could remove swype from /system/app like I did and then install the new version

Yep, you have to force uninstall the stock version, which requires root and something like Titanium Backup.
Or, if you like making things more difficult for yourself, you can go into /system/apps and delete Swype.apk and delete libSwypeCore.so from /system/lib and then install.

cool thanks!

Yesh I realised after we could force install it, I'm gonna leave it and hope they update with the next firmware. I'm running pretty close to stock at the minute, want to get a feel for the phone in it's naked state to start with.
Thanks for all the info guys. Much appreciated.

sweet, I forgot to backup my stock swype though before I uninstalled, what will happen when the beta expires?

so i installed the new version, reboot the phone and then swype isnt swyping anymore, just regular typing works. Then i tried to reinstall it and it said "Generating license failed".. anyone knows the fix for this?

Happened to me too I removed the beta with titanium and reinstalled

I like the principle of swype but find it frustrating to use due to the dictionary giving bizarre choices and editing being counter intuative. I look forward to trying beta 3 of swype but until Samsung deliver it on a future firmware update I'm not using it any more. However I have just discovered SlideIT and a m trying it out, it works just like swype and my opinion is favorable, it seems more accurate and easier to edit mistakes. It is a free trial and the full version costs money but it looks like a good alternative too those of us that don't root and therefore can't have swype beta 3 yet
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

I'd been using the beta for oh maybe 9 months and it only ran out once and all I did was log back into the site and generated another license.
I look forward to Samsung rolling out another version in the firmware. The one installed seemed smoother than my old beta, who knows the new beta might be even better.
Since 2.3 editing wrongly spelt words became much more annoying. Though I swear it's slowly learnt how I type.

So it's not possible without root ?

[Q] Google Play Services for custom rom

After Trying many Custom roms i found that in only hyperion latest build google play services works no other rom allows it After doing a lot of search in google and xda i found out a reason for .It occurs due to signing of apps by kitchen or by removing there odex part or by editing there signature. The solution i found out was flashing gapps to remove edited gapps and then doing data cache and dalvik cache wipe but and updating apps from market it will get automatically installed but this method didnt work for me. And many more method were tried by me but non worked for me please help me out i want to sign in in youtube in latest version

I had same problem. But few days earlier, I tried mobgenie software on desktop to install the google play service on my samsung galaxy y with hyperion rom. Amazingly it worked. Better use latest google play service (.apk file).
Hope this process will work on any android device with custom rom.

will work on any stock based rom
you just have to wipe data and then mount system and flash the zip
you dont need to install the rom again as you are wiping data
if you dont wipe data it will bootloop

My device is comprised of the api 22 sdk and moverio sdk. Is there any way to get around the issue of my "custom, stock rom" not being compatable with the installer?

Android 7 (B577) on AL10 - Update via hiapp

Upgraded to 7 using the hiapp and it seems ok. (I quite like the interface)
I have 2 issues, one new and one continuing
Launcher - I used the Google launcher in android 6 it worked fine (I didn't like not having an app draw)
Now I've upgraded I've noticed that the phone doesn't like the Google launcher. I'll set it to the default launcher and it will work fine for a bit then for what seems like no reason EMUI is back!
Is this just me ?
Bluetooth - is still dreadfully twitchy
Smart unlock on my LG urbane watch works sometimes
My girlfriend thinks I now shout 'fuc#### phone' instead of saying goodbye when I'm using handsfree in the car.
Phone still seems fast, using gboard as keyboard after I found the standard keyboard would stutter now and Again
Still think it's a great phone
M

To use Launcher drawer, change SETTINGS-->HOME SCREEN STYLE to drawer and you can use the Launcher with drawer.
BT is still f*&^% cant help with that

Thank You - step in the right direction

No, this should be installed with TWRP.

I did not try the one you posted, but u mean go into TWRP, factory defaults lets say and then flash the rom? Does this work? Because most 7.0 based roms produce errors due to twrp not being official. Cause im having problems with kangvip and play store. On some apps it works OK but in others it says that i need to authenticate my account. LOL This is a known bug for devices without play store by default but I never found the solution. I tried all the delete data/cache uninstall updates etc but nothing works.

I don't know what would be the effect to return from KangVip to "normal" B577 just the way you suggest.
I did it but I returned to the eRecovery version first. Strange thing is that my version still shows B575.
I have the same problem with Google Play but only when I try to install a new app. All apps that I ever installed with my account, also bought apps, can be installed without problem and also updated. If I install a new app with another phone and clear Google Play Store cache and data, I can install also on my Mate 8.
I also Googled hours to find a solution but it is all about clear data/cache, install latest version etc. but no cure.
With a totally new Google account, no problem to install whatever I want.
