[Q] Tweak Stock Adobe Flashplayer issue [RESOLVED]

i just noticed this last night, i tried to play a game of miniclip (lol dejavu) but the game never loaded,
i then downloaded it to my computer and then passed it to my phone,
i installed SWFPlayer from the market, and tried to run it but it gave me an error message that my phone did not have flash player installed, i went to the market and installed it, and tried it again, it gave me the same message,
i restarted my phone and tried again and it still didn't work, so i restored a NAND backup to test it and it worked this time so the issue is with the rom
I really like this rom is there a fix for this?
*Fixed* here is the same link from post #6 that fixed my issue

I would suggest asking dwitherell either by pm or in his Tweakstock thread, perhaps something he included (or left out) is causing the issue

[Q] Market wont open on ICS/CM9

Hi, I just flashed the ICS ROM for my g2x and also running CM9, everything works great but only few problems I found. My market place wont open up. I tried re-flashing the ROM but that didn't work. I also tried installing the Market APK file but that didn't work either. I cant even install apps through the browser. Any ideas as to why and how I can fix this?
Also I cant sign into any of my Google accounts and my clock app doesnt work, The alarms are still running but I cant open the app or edit the alarms. Any help would be appreciated.

maybe wrong gaaps file?

Did you flash gapps? This is needed for Google accounts and Market. Use the version dated 2/15/2012

Well when I flashed it I just restored my phone to my latest backup which had all the gapps. If I go ahead and flash the latest ones will it just replace the ones I currently have or do I have remove them first?

[Q] Stock Camera not working in Sensation

Hi, i've bought an unlocked T-Mobile HTC Sensation and was running Android Revolution HD for Sensation gingerbread. my Camera app has suddenly stopped working... I've tried updating to latest ICS from Android Revolution HD 6.5.1 but still the camera is not working. when i start the app... the screen flashes and then again I'm back on the home screen. Strangely, when using application "mirror" it starts the front camera... and that is working fine... and i've tried multiple apps from market for back camera...but its not working using any of them... can you please help me out with this... any help in this would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks

this is weird did you tried other camera apps?
if its still not working then
do a superwipe and flash rom again and see(this method erases data ..so backp them before hand)

Similar problem, if i click the camera or camcorder icon the screen goes black, it either stays black until i take the battery out or it crashes and restarts?! Weird, cant use it to take pics in any other apps either. front camera is fine on skype though...!? everything is uptodate nothing was updated recently?! Anyone
(Im on stock)

This happened to me once when i was stock. I would do a battery pull and it would work again..but finally did a hard restore through recovery and cleared all the caches and that worked. Now im rooted and on energy GB rom and I have not had that problem anymore.
Just flashing a new rom did not help. I actually had to do a factory reset on the ROM as well..in the Setting/storage.

Never ran into this problem

Have u tried maybe a different rom??

I would suggest clearing the app data.

Have you news. I have the same problem and have yet to find any solution. If you have one I'd be grateful for it.

Go to Task Manager>>Advanced>>All apps>>Find the Camera app and select it>>Force Close if it is running & then Clear Data.
This should fix it.
If not, get this app. Go to primary and secondary camera, & check if they both work.
If it works, then there's a problem with the stock app.
If not, there is either a problem with the camera or with camera access.
I would suggest reflashing your current ROM, since this seems to solve issues, many a time.

Try installing another pyramid
have you tried to download a special or customized pyramid from the sensation android development department and then tried out your 4g??? a customized pyramid + tweaks will allow the htc camera to work because the htc family usually creates htc's like as if they were real babies.. the htc's adapt to you and then little by little all the problems like "over-heating reset, camera faults and random keyboard touches" are common problems with the htc... installing a different pyramid or returning it for another new one will usually fix this..

As far as I can tell, your camera is not being detected.
I would recommend that you do this:
1>NANDROID backup
2>SuperWipe (it can be found in this post at the very end)
3>Re-install ROM (Remember to check MD5 before installing)
4>Check if the Camera works.
If not, then Super Wipe and restore your previous backup.
If it works, get back to me. (PM me if I don't reply)
If you have further questions, feel free to ask.

Play store FC when going back to GB?

I've been using ICS for a while and I wanted to go back to GB but I can't get the play store to work. I've tried Hellfire, CM, and EB with the same problems. I've downloaded Gapps from different places and even the tweaked versions and same problem. I am on the latest BB but plashing over the fix is suppose to fix it even on GB.
Anyone else run into this?
Here's a extensive run down of the flash I run from ICS:
Run Nullifier Dual-Wipe 2.0.6
Install Rom
Install Fix
Install GApps
Fix Permissions
Reboot
Let phone sit for 15+ mins
Log into phone w/out putting in the google info
Restart into recovery
Fix permissions 3x
Reboot to ROM
Go to Settings and put in my Google Account
Reboot to recovery
Fix permissions 3x
Reboot to ROM
Open GApps ... Force Close always happens ...
Thanks in advance
Edit: ICS works fine but I do want some of the functionality of GB that ICS just doesn't have yet without the official drivers released.

Dang you do about 3x more steps than I do when switching ROMs, have you tried clearing the market data in the manage apps menu? You're flashing the right Gapps for whatever GB ROM you're using also?

Yeah, that's a lot but I wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything.
I did try to clear data/fix permissions/reboot... same problem.
And yes, I downloaded the "tweaked" Gapps for HFP and the Gapps from Cyanogenmod when using CM7, ect. Nothing seems to work. And it's only for GB, ICM doesn't have this problem. It doesn't make sense to me unless it's something in my google profile that's doing this.

Well found a fix
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582422
It's working now with the 3.5.16 version. I can finally go back to GB.

How to troubleshoot issues

Ok I have been learning how to and moving forward with flashing different ROMs.
I am currently running a 2.3.6 GB on my Infuse.
I am looking to go to ICS however I want to understand better certain issues I am having with my phone.
Its not every time but I will click to open my applications and wait but nothing happens.
If I lock my screen and then re-open my applications will be there. (this part is consistent)
Now Im also getting a lot of Force Closes - I even uninstalled and re-installed applications and still get the same force close when I try to open with one exception where that fixed the problem.
I tried the fixed permissions from Recovery mode but that did not help.
So I have better than 50% of the time where my applications wont open but locking and unlocking causes it to pop open.
I have several applications that i keep getting force close on.
I also have times when things seem sluggish and times when I go to unlock my phone and its froze so that I have to pull the battery.
I use the Go Launcher and its utilities like Power Master and Task Master to manage battery and tasks and it seems to do a good job and has a lot of people recommending them.
What I would like is a way to be able to evaluate and determine what may be going on and resolve it.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

If one Rom doesn't work for you, try another one until you find one you can settle on for a while.
Remember to always do the appropriate wipes when switching roms, and be careful when restoring apps & data, as it can sometimes cause issues.
I would recommend to give JB a try if you haven't yet.

I was going to go to JB but have heard its still a bit buggy.
I used Go Backup to restore applications this time around.
I have used a variety of Backup and Restore options to include nandroid, Titanium, AppExtractor however Go Backup seemed to do my apps, sms, mms, contacts and so forth the best.
If you can refer a better process for application backup and restore when upgrading / changing ROMs Im all ears.

Not buggy for me. Cm10 & paranoid android are pretty solid.. have not tried the others but I believe they perform well too.
I use mybackup pro, just personal preference. I find it simple and works for me.
Sent from my sweet & buttery Infuse

I have tried CNA , MIUI, PA, CM10 and Cypher AOKP ROM (my current one). All are pretty stable. Just be aware most, if not all, are MTD based and going back to ICS (different format) can be a process. Also back up EFS using Infuse toolkit just in case your IMEI disappears.

I suspect your problem is related to Go Launcher and the other Go apps, particularly if you are using one of their builds from the last 6 months. If I were you, I'd backup and do a full wipe and install of one of these GB ROMs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1613523. Restore all your apps except the Go apps and see how things run. Go Launcher provides more functionality than any other free launcher, so you'll have to get used to that. I moved to the free ADW launcher when I was on GB - it's kind of simple, but there are some nice themes available for it.
Also, don't use the GO utilities!
Of course, you could move to a JB ROM. They are all pretty good and stable. JB, however, has some irritating bugs and some apps don't function properly on it. I'm using Paranoid Android 2.0. It's really good, but not quite as fast as the straight CM10...

Funny you should show those ROMs as I am using that very ROM - Option C version
Man I really like the Go Launcher and my wife doesnt seem to be having a problem with it.
Oh well I was looking to maybe make the move up to ICS so maybe I will do that tonight.
Also can you use Heimdal to install those packages or just Odin?

Neither. I believe ODIN and Heimdall are more for recovery.
If you have GB now, download the ROM(s) to your phone and go to CWM and install the zip. Make sure you follow the instructions on the OP of the ROM (wipe/factory reset, etc). Don't forget to install GAPPS too.
And if you want to flash JB, go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1878458 (great guide, also shows how to go from GB to ICS first...follow those instructions).

Ok I was reviewing the link you gave to upgrade and had a couple of questions.
9. Flash ICS, then ICS Gapps - this step refers to ICS Gapps
Once it boots into ICS, turn off and remove your external sdcard.- Why do you have to pull your external sdcard?
The in the section for going to JB it says
5. Flash Gapps - Is this a different Gapps file?
Just curious...

Having the SD card has been known to cause problems...best to remove...you can put it in later. ICS and JB have different GAPPS. Look for the link to the correct GAPPS on the IP of the ROM you decide to use.

Also when I tried to make sure I had the device driver installed it is not showing me the Samsung Common.
I guess I hear Entropy has a top JB and also heard good stuff on Th3Bill's JB.

My USB drivers say USB Composite Device. If you are going to leap from ICS to JB, it probably doesn't matter which one you flash...most of them are really good (I used UNi-yuma-PoRN when I was on ICS). I have used several of the JB's and everyone likes what they like. Try them all and see which one you like best.

I found it however when I click to download it says it couldnt find it.
Is the gapp just based on the flavor ie. gapp for ICS, gapp for JB and so forth or are they more specific to the ROM?
Hopefully can flash one tonight but if not - tomorrow.

ICS GAPPS were used across the ICS ROMs. Some played around and created inverted GAPPS (black screen, white letters) but ICS had GAPPs and JB has GAPPS. Not sure why...probably due to the different file formats.
Also the mirror in the first link on the OP is down...some upgrades. Try the other mirror
