[Q] Market won't work

I installed a ROM and the market app is black and says " The application Market (process com.adroid.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Any ideas?

Try the thread for the Rom, someone else might have same issue.

This is WHY they have minimum post settings.
I spent a week reading about the bolt, how to root it, etc., etc. Before doing anything. Read, and then read some more before tinkering around with it. Use nandroid backup before making changes.

I know there is some issues with market on the mr2 radio as far as the way the dev of your Rom needed to set it up so it would allow downloading of certain protected apps but sounds like you are taking right steps to try and get back to a functioning market

Clear the cache and data for the market app then try it again.

I have had the same issues and this fixed it.

I posted a topic about this about a week ago after installing MR2. There is an issue with Google recognizing and updating your info that is in some way related to the 4G SIM.
I kid you not....this is how to fix it...... It has happened to me twice the last week as I got an AE.
1. Wait. No matter what I did, it seemed to never "Come back" until about 48 hrs.
2. Clear the Market cache and data
3. Stop the market service
4. Sing into and out of Google talk like you are on OCD.
Pissed the second day I had this happened, I was sitting at a bar listening to some girl go on and on about something so I started signing in and out of Google talk like 14 - 16 times....... Opened the market...no problem!
For "Must have apps, go to the online market place via your computer and push them to your phone. That always worked for me no matter what. Good luck!

What in the name of Zod is LocalTryTry?

This has just been sitting in the my apps section of marketplace since I ran market doctor in Titanium Backup. I have absolutely no idea what this app does, (if anything) both the description and Whats New text simply says LocalTryTry followed by two screen shots of a three paned interface that is completely blank. Attempting to update the app fails and I can find no actual trace of it's existence on my transformer anywhere.
So I ask, what is this thing had how do I get rid of it? Frankly Its freaking me out a bit.

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.asus.weatherwondered the samething. just looked on the market page. It says in the url com.asus.weather. thanks for making me look.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.asus.weather

Well that seems to be that mystery solved

I have exactly the same problem.
It came about exacly the same way i have tried using two different roms with the same result.
Have you got rid of it and how you did it.
Thanks

Using Titanium Backup just unlink LocalTryTRy (Asus weather) from the market and it stops nagging you about updates that always fail.

Well first post gets an answer pretty quick.
Pretty easy when you know how
Thanks for you help.

So instead of breaking the market link is there a way to port the update again? If I knew how I would since that seems like a better option.

[Q] I've searched. I swear! I suck.

I've been searching all $*#(&$# day. Please be kind. I'm about to cry.
I bought my Samsung Galaxy S 4g when they first came out. I rooted because I heard I could delete the "bloat" and regain disk space. I had no trouble rooting, but my phone has never worked right and I'm ALWAYS getting out of disk space messages, even though I've moved every possible app to the SD card. At some point I lost the ability to send or receive picture text messages so I went hunting online. I don't remember the steps I took or how I took them, but somehow I changed the model of my phone to say HTC Vision. It was on recommendation from someone somewhere, but it was over a year ago and I can't find the thread I originally read.
Fast forward to now. I got the out of disk space error AGAIN, so I used Titanium Backup to delete some stuff. Yes, I'm a dumbass and I must have deleted something that looked unimportant, but WAS. Now both email and text messaging crashes. I can receive a text, but messaging crashes before I can reply. I can make and receive calls.
I've been looking for a day and a half to try to find a stock rom with instructions to "flash" back to factory settings. (I put these terms in quotes because, while I've seen them everywhere, I really don't know what they mean). I've downloaded the updated Kies program, but it won't recognize my phone. Possibly because it thinks it's an HTC Vision? I've also installed Odin in preparation for reinstalling the stock rom. I keep hitting a wall whenever I find a link to what I think is a stock rom - I get a stupid ilivid link and nothing else. I've avoided installing ilivid, but I went ahead and installed it to try to get the rom. I don't know what else to do.
I'm sorry this is so long. My level of proficiency is just enough to get myself into a lot of trouble with no knowledge to get myself out. Can anyone help in a "for dummies" answer? Thanks in advance.

one click back to stock should do the trick. I believe you do it twice for bootloader.

Don't cry lol. Go to this link :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358498
and download the one click. All you have to do is open it up and click flash and everything is done for you. When its done, your phone will be just as it was when you opened the box it came in. As a word of advice though, don't use titanium backup to move apps to the SD card. It does more harm than is justified for saving a few MB's, because system apps aren't meant to be used from the SD card. If you don't use them, just delete them.

Thank you!!!
You all are amazing. I now successfully have Gingerbread stock (when I used to have Froyo) and everything seems to be working just like it should. I think I'll leave my phone alone now. I tried to swim in the deep end, but I belong in the kiddie pool! This is all above my head. Thank you again! MWAH!!!

[Q] Chrome Search Hijacked...fix?

I'm running chromi-x. My chrome browser's address bar search feature is somewhat hijacked...
<search term> goes to google/yahoo/bing (as set in settings) but it searches for: http://www.search-goal.com/?q=<search term>&affID=<somenumber>&babsrc=amob_ait
Has anyone seen an android browser hijack? Any idea how to fix? AVG A/V hasn't had any luck....
EDIT/PS: This is not happening in the default android browser.

Oops. Didn't read properly. Sorry. Forgot you said it searches the correct engine.
Edit: after a few Google searches, I can't find anything about search-goal.com, and the site has no information about itself either. My best guess is an app you installed is doing it. Uninstall anything you may have installed in the last week or so, and see if the problem goes away.

My suggestion would be to uninstall reinstall if that doesn't work, reflash the rom. I just went to search-goal.com on my pc and it looks dangerious. Im wasn't aware the homepage could be changed without user input, if you've installed any root access apps (essentially any apk files) id uninstall them.

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried uninstalling chrome. Got it uninstalled but had a heck of a time re-installing. It would NOT wipe /data/data/com.android.chrome. I finally removed that with TWRP. After reinstalling chrome it's still doing it. I've done an "install over" rom install (install, no data wipe) and it's still doing it. As much as I've tried to avoid it I think I'm going to have to wipe/reload/reinstall apps one by one. My last shot is I'm trying to find where the search engines are set up if it's a file somewhere to see if I can edit it.
Definitely malicious given the one time I tried to open it on a PC that I knew I could clean if I needed to it came up looking like a google clone.
Thankfully it's not actually loading that site so it's not doing anything but being annoying when I try to search.

same in my case -> solution
I had the same issue at my tf101 (at Team EOS rom) - and I was able to find the reason: in my case A.I. type keyboard app and the so called customized web search capabilities. When you remove this "feature" chrome search is back to normal.

Happy camper!

Many thanks be to timbetu! I shut off all my extra keyboards I was trying out. (FloatNSplit, GO, Hacker's, & Perfect Keyboard Free). That left the Android, ASUS, and Google voice typing turned on. Sure enough it went away! I was actively using FloatNSplit at the time. Will do some experimenting to find out if it was that one or another.
You have saved me from having to resetup my tablet!
:highfive:
EDIT: Also, dude, that's pretty awesome that your 1st post to XDA gets a thanks! Welcome to the forums!

I'm using floatnspin keyboard and that seems to be my issue. There is a setting for web searches and once I turned that off my browser worked normally again. I guess thats a new "feature".

Had the same problem, uninstalling the app fixed it. Please flag this app in Google play so Google can know about this! If you ask me, changing the default search engine without notifying the user is pretty nasty and malicious.

FloatNSplit and A.I. keyboard seems to be the same app.

I recognized this problem at my tablet and searched for an solution. During my search I found this topic here - but unfortunately without help. So I tried everything at my Asus and as I discovered the guilty app I just shared this finding with other affected users (because I knew of this thread).

[Completed] Can anyone help speeding things up a bit?

Hi there! I'm having some doubts about the phone, switching between apps forces app refresh, even if I switch only for a couple of seconds. If I was filling up a form and had to check something in another app (let's say a bank app), everything I completed resets itself. If I was using a browser, leave it for a couple of seconds, come back, it refreshes the website (spending data and time). Any way to make it better? A really fast phone but this is bothering me.
Here is a video I recorded to show what I mean.

Tried limiting 4 background process as someone suggested me but it didn't change behavior.
Thanks!

Greetings,
Unfortunately, no one can help you if you don't provide your device model.
Thanks.

Hi, yes I thought about it but I also created a thread at the phone forum and no one replied, it's a Leeco Le Max 2, don't think many people have it, perhaps someone could put me in the right direction as to what I'm looking for.
