A bit of a weird one.
Updated to CM12.1 Atares ROM :good: I have been running CM12 ROMS for ages and updated to the 12.1 via the OTG in settings and using Nightlies.
I have only noticed problem yesterday and going back to CM12 just causes more problems, also going back to the previous Nightly doesn't help
I cannot access Google Play Store. 'Check your connection and try again' All WiFi settings are correct etc... even when using mobile data, I still cannot get access.
My GT1905 has disappeared off my devices list on the play store too! I've also noticed that Google+ has disappeared off my phone too, but more interestingly my SUBCARD app has gone too! (not sure if others have gone but I noticed this as I like a subway :yum: ) But... if I go to the playstore on my phone (or PC/tablet etc...) via chrome it says it's installed! I cannot access it via my apps list.
So other than doing a wipe of my phone if there any other suggestions?
Did you perform a full wipe before updating?
You cannot just flash it over an old CM 12 you need a fresh install.

Well I would of done if it hadn't come via the OTA updates, never noticed it went from CM12 to CM12.1 until Monday/Tuesday last week.
Will do a full wipe later on today and see what happens.

Custom rom OTA's are not like official rom OTA's. Doing a wipe is still recommended. Anyway, force stopping google play and clearing app cache and data might help you in this case.
Had similar issues on other roms, even though I wiped before flashing.

I tried clearing all data and cache and also force stopping. WhisperPush kept crashing too.
Wiped the phone and started again, all sorted now with CM12.1 latest nightly build
Cheers for the advice guys.

Hi all
I've just switched to ICS from the rom uploaded by kwiboo.
everything seems fine except that i can't configure my Google account.
when i try to add an account, i can't see Google account. if i try to add it as a corporate, i always get a message saying "unfortunately, exchange server stopped"
any one faced the same problem ?

Sounds like you've got a bad zip download or flash. Try wiping system, boot, data, cache and re-flash. Post this stuff in Kwiboo's thread for support.
hmm hey ask around the glaxy nexus people might just be a ICCS bug too
ICS wifi issue
Google account works fine with me, 3G is a bit unstable though.
Been flashin all the ICS betas prepared by drew and on none of them my wifi worked.
Flashed newly published AOSP ICS rom but wifi still refuses to work
It doesn't seem to find any of the networks around me. Any suggestions how to correct that?
Also, i've noticed that battery drain is huge with this rom. 12% off in just 23 minutes.
it happened to me too, when i tried my luck flashing ICS on top of CM7 nightly without wiping data.
it works ok when wiping like we should tho
Wipe it! Should work afterward
Thank you all
I wiped the cache first but it didn't work.
then I wiped the whole thing. It's working now.
thanks again.

is there any way to do this without wipin all the data? maybe wiping just the data for google apps?
Yeah, I simply added my Google account like on any other Android release without any issues
I was out in the sticks today and I was having trouble getting my GV to update since I didn't have any service. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and now it force closes after I finish setup. Did a factory reset from the menu and I still have the same issue. Even with nothing but the stock gapps installed. Anyone else encounter this?

Make sure all the Gapps are updated to the latest versions. I get FCs all the time after flash Gapps and not updating them.

How can you uninstall and then re-install GV?? it isnt available on Play store...
if you installed it again from the GApps package then the case might be due to lack of libs.
flash the latest GApps again/the GApss available along your ROM. if your ROM has Gapps add-on inside it, then reflash the ROm; data isnt lost
I'm sorry, I may have used some of the vocabulary incorrectly. Allow me to explain this a bit better. My phone is completely stock and unrooted. By update, I meant grab any new texts/voicemails I had missed while out to coverage. When I mentioned gapps, I was referring to the Google apps that come stock on the N4.

Google Voice is available on the Play store...
If if GV isn't available where you live, it's probably not on your Play store, the OP is in the US where GV is supported and available on the Play store.
Still having the same issue after updating all apps. I find it odd that it would crash after a factory reset with nothing else installed. Does the factory reset option from the menu leave any residual data behind? Is there another option that does a true full wipe?
Bump
I'm dead in the water here. I use GV exclusively and this is really hampering my work. Any help you guys can offer would be greatly appreciated. Should I attempt to flash a custom rom and go back to stock? Are there any partitions that could be holding any previous settings that could be screwing things up?
I recently did the root from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2291827
and the hot spot mod from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2256950
I've reverted the hotspot mod and still the same result.
All my old apps work fine, nothing new that I download can be opened.
try clearing the data/cache on the apps then force close them and try to relaunch.....i had that issue with slim for a bit but it seems that whatever changes in build 6 were implimented fixed the issues.

stock rom.
Just tried a factory reset and now everything is crashing before I can even get into the setup process.
all services/apps that try to load crash.
I'm also unable to wipe cache from stock recovery, it says error.
is there a way to do it from odin? I'm waiting on stock firmware download, hoping that will make my phone useable again.
would installing TWRP and flashing an aftermarket rom potentially fix it? stock firmware is taking forever to download.
Stock firmware fixed the issue, scared to reroot the phone now tho....
if your having issues booting after a wipe try moving to to differant rom. if you like the TW UI there are still plenty of options for you in the way of custom roms. also if your going to be formatting your phone (i.e. wiping cache and dalvik and system components) i would recommend you load a custom recovery. you dont have to have one but it is advised.
I am running aokp 4.4 kitkat nighly and I wanted to update. When I update without wiping anything on top of my previous rom it works, but my google play is missing. Also , my folders and widgets went away leaving me with only gallery and setting on the main page. Google now was not there either.
How do I update without losing my data?
Do i have to wipe anything before flashing?
Thank you in advance
Gapps are stored in system which is formatted when you update, you have to flash gapps again.
Nightlys are not really for normal use so you shouldn't have any data that you're worried about losing on there.

I would think about trying another rom. You should be able to dirty flash an update for the rom that's already on your phone without losing anything.

Some nightlies can be a daily driver, just have to pick a developer who is well known for their work and not someone who just started learning last night!
Sure, you have to start somewhere, but I think you know what I'm saying.

Hey guys.
Phone is CyanogenMod 11 (Android 4.4) and Paranoid Android (Android 4.4)
What happened:
Phone crashed (screen became full of colors and phone restarted). After reboot everything on the phone was gone - GApps, all my apps, save a few of like a 100. Basically a fresh CM install without GApps.
What I did was flash GApps (correct package). Everything worked fine until I've tried to install an app. Phone immediately rebooted.
I've tried wiping everything, doing factory resets, installing older CM builds, now I've even installed Paranoid Android ROM. Still the same problem persist:
If I try to install any app from Play Store or just from an apk with I file manager - phone immediately reboots. The only way I can now use it is by disabling Play Store so it doesn't start to update something
Has anyone ever encountered this?
Is this the right forum to ask?

Maybe you just need to flash gapps right after the rom. I flashed cm without gapps once and when i booted back into recovery to flash gapps my phone crashed.
Doing them one after the other is the way to go.

Thanks for suggestion, I've tried that several times, didn't help...
I had the opposite after a crash on a nexus 4 over a year ago.. phone would reboot unistalling any app wether by play store or settings/apps.
after trying everything for most of a day, the only thing that fixed it was formatting the data partition.. not wiping, there's a format data option in twrp

I'll try this! But when? Before installing CM and Gapps, after?
Tried various ways, no game
