[Q] Installed CM7 and it's working...a few questions

I am up and running, so I think I did everything right!
However...
Angry Birds won't open. I've installed from Market, from backup, uninstalled, reinstalled, rebooted...any other ideas?
Facebook app is glitchy.
My Nook app is force closing when I try to open a book...I'm thinking maybe I did something wrong...
Is there a way to remove the phone related apps and references?
I do miss the BN Library Shelves...I think I'll get over that though...or attempt a dual-boot.
Overall, it is so different than what I'm used to that it's a bit intimidating...but I'm sticking with it for a while due to all the over-the-top positive reviews here!

Nook app update...I had downloaded a book and it was in the notification list that it had finished...cleared it and the app is working now.

I know that Facebook version 1.5.3 had bugs that caused force closes on MANY devices. They released 1.5.4 last night to correct these issues, but I have not tested the new version myself. Others have said the app works great now. I downgraded to 1.5.2 which works fine, but I will try 1.5.4 later tonight.
Unfortunately I don't know about the other questions you had so hopefully someone else can help you there

Im no expert, but have you fixed permissions in rom manager? thats been known to stop force closes

I tried to fix permissions, but it says I don't have permission to do so...something's not quite right.

Yes, 1.5.3 caused problems for many. So far 1.5.4 works for me without any problems on my Droid X and Nook Color.

How are you showing phone references? You mean the apps?
If you're talking apps, get root explorer, nav. to system/app/
mount r/w, then add the suffix .bak too app phone related apps (doing phone.apk LAST). It doesn't do anything, but helps some people sleep at night.
mms.apk
telephoneprovider?.apk
phone.apk (will cause force closes...just hard shut down and reboot)
Haven't run into any apps that need these (dropbox used to), but good to keep around.

Try moving angry birds from sd card to "phone" if that is where it is located.

Hmmmm... Strange. Have you tried to boot into clockwork and fix permissions there?

Just want to make sure-- you did format your data & cache partition as ext4 right?

I'm not sure about the ext4...is that something different than just formatting through CWM.
Angry Birds is installed on 'phone' and not the SD card.
I did figure out how to remove phone apps, thanks!
We have multiple nooks so I tried Phiremod's on a different one and really liked it. I ended up reflashing this nook to Phiremod and am so far, really pleased...angry birds still won't load, but I guess we can live without it!

power button and home button problem
I just installed the latest cm7.0.2 build, and I found that my home button does not work...
also, the power button only has reboot and poweroff selections, the other selections in cm7.0.0 were lost...
Anyone saw this problem?
I tried to set the home button settings in ADWLauncher->General Behavior->Home button binding, but it does not work...
anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks

If Rom Manager doesn't allow you fix permissions, open superuser and make sure it's allowed superuser access.

CM9.... What did I do???

I have a question for some of you. I had been doing some research on CM9 for NC. I found a download, ( Though not on this site) along with some additional help from this website.
I installed everything to my NC and low and behold, it all works!! It looks just like my Toshiba Thrive tablet, except it's showing that its running Android 4.0 version.
Now for the drawbacks.... it has NO sound, NO Market, etc... Is there any way to install those? Or has this been the problem all along??
Thanks!

What links you got the CM9 from?
I got CM9 running with sound and market is working just fine.

I knew better than to trust another site, but ... I went to androidfamily.net. It had a "how to" to install CM9 ...
Could you give me downloads you used?
Thanks alot!!!

Check out the Samiam nightly builds in the development forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444943
You basically need to flash three files that are available from there. Latest nightly main CM9 ROM, Google Apps (Gapps) and the telephony-permissions fix.
That will give you market, working sound and best CM9 for Nook at the moment.

I see the Gapps file, and the telephony-permissions fix file, but where is the CM9 main file you mentioned? Am I overlooking it?
I tried again, using the same CM9 file, and then installed the Gapps file you mentioned along with the telephony permissions fix. Still no market. Everything else worked fine!

So do I just download the link that has today's date by it?? That's what I did, and no market. I went back re-read everything, and then downloaded everything all over again, and again... No Market. Everything else is working fine.

Are you connected to wifi? When loading a new rom, sometimes the market doesn't show up until hooked up to wife.
If this doesn't solve your problem, then I would start from scratch. Can you boot into CM recovery? If so, go into mounts and storage and format data, system and cache. Back into main screen and factory reset and wipe cache partition. (so many debates on if this is all totally necessary, but I have had glitches with installs when I have not done every one of these steps in this order).
Install CM9 (I do recommend samiam's build. It works flawlessly on my nook.)
Choose reboot option in recovery. Connect to a wireless network.
Samiam has included Rom Manager in his build. I use this to boot into recovery. Install Sam's gapps, telephony fix and boot animation fix. Reboot.
Hope this helps. Post if you need more detailed instructions.

I don't think you are flashing the right ones or are missing one of the 3. There is a patch that fixes market, boot animation and SOD issues. In unofficial cm9 forum.

I am getting a little confused. When I clicked on the CM9 build....it shows parent directory and then all the nightlies. Which one do I use? I also tried to just wipe it and reinstall CM7... I did manage to get the market running the CM7. So, I think I must have just downloaded the wrong nightly??

You can click on the latest one (Jan. 28.) and download. I always check the end of samiam's thread to see if there are any hiccups on the latest builds. I am running Jan.26 build (haven't updated yet) and it is running beautifully for me.

I have tried everything! and still no market! I believe I'm doing everything correctly, because I downloaded CM7 again, and had the market.
Is there anyone out there with the same type problem that corrected it?
Thanks!

From Recovery you want to format cache and system (under mounts). Also format data unless you already have a good working set up and you want to preserve all your settings, apps etc.
Then you should be flashing 3 zips in this order
update-encore-2012xxxx.zip where xxxx is the latest
gapps-ics-4.0.3-sam-noinit.zip from the misc folder
telephony-permission-fix.zip from the misc folder
The gapps zip in particular has the google apps including the market. Note that if you are comparing with the CM7 MiRaGe ROM then that has the gapps in including the market already in whereas with CM9 you have to flash them in separately.
If you have formatted data then when you reboot it should take you straight into a setup where you set up wifi, then sign in to your google account. The market app then should work OK.

Went to CWM and did the above ..went to mounts and storage..format cache and system, and data. After I did this, I hit the power button, once to go back to the screen to install the zips. Now, when I hit that power button, the following message came up 4 times... E: can't mount/cache/recovery.log. Could this have something to do with it??
I tried your instructions again, and No Market. You said that it would take me to a screen to set up wi fi ..but it doesn't. My screen is black, with a clock, a picture of a camera, and box that says gallery.
I am just going to have to go back to CM7!

I think I finally thought it out. For whatever reason when I put the gapp file in my NC it shows installing..but I don't think it worked. CM7...No problems! Have installed twice today and both times had the Market.
CM9... runs great...but no market!

Strange. The only thing that I can think of at the moment is that you have a bad download of the gapps file.
If you haven't tried it before then I'd suggest downloading it again. You should then just be able to flash that one on its own.
---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------
As a double check the zip should be 16,874,937 and you should be able to open it on PC and see the apps files in the system/app folder with vending.apk

I checked, and BTW I'm using gapps-ics-4.0.3 -sam noinit ......my download is 18,275 KB ? and when I clicked on it to check the apps files as you suggested this is what it showed... 3 folder icons with MACOSX, META-INF, system. And then directly underneath the folders were 3 other things with the same words as the top 3 ... NO vending.apk ?? I clicked on the one that had system, and all the apps are there. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Would you tell me which gapp file your using?
Thanks for helping me!!!

I go the Gapps I use from the link
http://sphsolutions.net/android/Encore/Nightlies/Misc/
However, it looks like I got a slightly earlier one (probably 1 day before). I retrieved the current one to compare them. The later one has the YouTube app in which explains the difference in size. All the Google apps are exactly the same as in the one I use and the Vending app is there as well under system/app
If you can't see that folder then there is something wrong with your zip download.
The other difference from the earlier one I had is that it looks like the later one had been put together on a Mac system as it has the extra __MACOSX folder and a few .DS_Store folders which are not really part of the required zip but should be harmless.
Just to check I just tried installing with the latest nightly 20120128 and the later gapps version and I got the market OK.
So two thoughts: either your download is still bad or maybe you have signature verification turned on in your clockwork and that is causing this gapps install to fail whereas the main ROM is passing and also the gapps when you do CM7. I have signature verification disabled (which I think is the default). Try toggling the signature verification menu item and get it set to disabled.

What and where is the signature verification? And..... how do I get there?

Unable to install APK's

Anyone have any idea as to why, I cant install any APK's in OmniRom ? - I dont have GApps installed, if that any help. (GApps keeps failing to install).

First thing is to check Settings->Security->Unknow sources.

Well, I have the DEB nightly of 2-19-14 of OmniRom

But when I try to install the Google Voice apk, I get the message : Cant open file.

I don't see any DEB nightly on Omnilog. Only FLO version is available.
Are you running an unofficial version?

Its an official build right from the OmniRom website.
Heres the link to the DEB...
http://dl.omnirom.org/deb/

1) How did you get the apk on your phone?
2) What file manager are u using to install the apk?

I downloaded it directly to the tablet. & I went into the Downloads folder & just taped on it to install. Then I also copied it over to the tablet under OSX. after deleting it off the tablet the first time.

Again, which file manager are you using to navigate to your download folder and install the apk?

There is no file Manager on the system. Nor do I have GApps installed. And when I try to install any thing, it wont install. & since I dont have the Play store, I cant go through that to download/install any thing either… What a mess
- Btw. Thanks for taking an interest & trying to help me with this.

Your issue maybe that you don't have gapps installed and it's missing the installer files to install the apk

Does 'adb install' from a PC work?
Many of the gapps APKs are required to be in /system so they can't be installed via 'adb install' or any other method. Maybe the APK you're trying to install has a dependency on gapps.

Google apps, as well as apps that rely on the APIs they expose (mapping is common) are a tightly intertwined mess. You'll get seemingly silent install errors because you're missing libraries, for example. Trying to restore apps through Titanium Backup will similarly fail if they are missing required libraries.
They generally will show up though logcat if you look carefully. Resolving the issue requires the sufficiently complete and self-consistent (sub-) set of Gapps.

Yeah. What a lot of people don't realize is how many apps that are out there which aren't part of gapps, but require the presence of the core gapps components.

[UPGRADE(Dirty Flash)]
I have noticed if you dirty flash on first boot you may experience a little lag or possible reboot. After it settles down no issues. Not sure if its art related on upgrades or what. Its hard to pin point as it only happens once and smooth after that. Recommend after an upgrade let it settle in before playing hard.
Thanks

FIrst boot is a little slow but that is due to art. I always recommend a clean install when upgrading but if you feel luck. Backup and try a dirty flash. If you have issues run a clean install and if you still have issues please post with a logcat. You can upload via bugreport in the toolbox under settings. If going from a differnt rom other then evervolv lollipop always clean install. ALWAYS REMEMBER TO BACKUP its important if you don't want to loose anything

the multiwindow is AWESOME!
---------- Post added at 12:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 AM ----------
I caught a small issue w/ my Wi-Fi after turning on multi window. I followed w/ a hot reboot because the recent apps was not allowing me to choose a layout at first and I didn't want to go through a cold reboot. I'll get logs asap. Then I'll do a hard reboot to see how that works out.
UPDATE: I uploaded my logs via the bug report. I'll do a hard reboot and let you know if I see anything similar again Flintman

I just added my personal email account to the built in mail app and as it was downloading my mail, it repeatedly FCed on me. I will do a reboot and see if the FCs stop. Just thought I'd mention that before I go hit the sack for a few hours. FYI, the type of account was an IMAP account.

maybe the gapps from rgib CM13 (note 8) could be a lead. (because they work like a charm on my tablet with cm13)

Amazing first MM. The HPTP runs great on Marshmellow. Great job Flintman!!

I've been playing with the multi window more and I find that it's still a bit temperamental. Some times it won't let me tap on any layout options when I hit the recent apps icon. I'll keep the logs coming as I play with this, but I am very pleased with how this has started so far! Thanks Flintman and EV team for such hard work to teach our "old" TPs new and amazing tricks with M!

MM Screen rotation
Got a couple of Keyboard double clicks when entering details for the 1st time (Wifi selection page) and also screen rotation doesnt appear to be functioning..
If i reboot with the TP held in portrait, it come up in portrait but wont rotate to landscape when at the home screen.. likewise, Boot up on landscap, no rotation to portrait.. Setting in "Display" is set to rotate contents.. There doesnt appear to be the older 90,180,270 degree etc
Excellent work @flintman... Thank you

The native e-mail client continues to force close when it connects to the IMAP mail server for my account to pull down new mail. This is despite multiple reboots.

Thanks flintman for a great test build of MM for TP. Most of the apps run with no problems. But the Titanium Backup and facebook messenger are not working. The logcat is attached for your review. Thanks!

Thanks a lot for this nice tool (which came in too late for myself, alas). A couple of comments:
- Could you preserve timestamps of incorporated files? It would make comparisons to existing tools easier.
- I understand that ROM size is not an issue, would it be possible to make the debloat deactivations reversible? (e.g. pm disable/hide instead of rm - if something goes wrong there would be a chance to get back functionality)
- Five minutes seem a tad on the low side - I have seen more than that in a single reboot (when cache rebuilds took place).
Nevertheless: Very nice, I hope the tool will be useful to many people unpacking Fires from their stockings!

So I can run this on the stock 5.1.1 firmware by just downloading it to the sd card and install. On home screen open and it will root and install all that is listed?
Thank you in advance

Thanks for this! I just used it on my son's brand new Fire 7" tablet. I had to modify the .sh a little to run the script in Ubuntu http://pastebin.com/C1PXnqxa

Sorry about the unclear instructions. I updated the tutorial. You run the script from your computer with your device on the homescreen. :3

Thank you for clarifying. Will give this a try.

Thanks so much for the suggestions.
- I honestly don't know what you are referring to by this or how to do that, but I'll do it if you can PM me explaining it.
- Sure! I'll do this in the next version or the next, but I promise something like it will be done. :3
-I'll time it tonight and update. The script cuts off the cache rebuilds until the very end.

Thank you, the install went perfectly, this makes the Fire 5.1.1 livable until the bootloader is unlocked. I have encounter one thing, widgets cannot be added to the homescreen. Is this an expected issue or is there something going on with my tablet I need to explore?

I think I know what the problem is. It'll be fixed with the next update, which probably will be less than two hours from now. I appoligise for the inconvenience.

It's just sitting on daemon started successfully for quite a while, is this normal?

not sure what is going on, ran the script and everything went fine. however, the device is still trying to update. it seems like updates weren't blocked or something. i never let it install the initial update though that it tries to do when you turn on the device. i never even connected it to a wifi network so not sure how it can even update
google play services refuses to install as well. not sure what is wrong but seems like there must be some bugs in this script.

That's very odd. Can you attach screenshots and such so I can look into this? Also, try the updated script I have just updated the link too.
If you continue to have problems, adb sideload to start fresh.
I believe you may be getting confused with the "Updating your apps" screen, which is normal. This is android recompiling the cache for the newly installed apps.
What's the error shown when google play doesn"t install?

That's not normal. What OS are you using? Is Android Debugging enabled on your device and did you allow the "Accept debugging from this computer?" prompt on your tablet?

The Fire logo with "Updating Apps..." is normal. :3 It should be gone after two reboots.
As for the google play problem, It sounds like you need to clear the data and relogin to google. Was there anything relating to google play on your device previously before the script? You may have to be connected to wifi for google play to download updates, if you still aren't.

i haven't loaded 1 thing. i never even connected to wifi before running your script.
ok i went in and cleared everything in the google framework and play store, now when i try to open play store it just spins. will not load. any suggestions? no idea what the problem could be.
EDIT - ok finally got it. for some reason it just started working. i think there must have been a notfication that was showing which i didn't accept

Glad to hear! Usually the infinite spinning wheel means you need to accept the terms of use. :3

Everything worked fine, just one note that seems to be a side affect. I had a childs profile setup before running the script, now I cannot change settings or delete the profile.
