Help needed. Market 3.4.4 on CM7 won't download :(

I have tried everything I could find: clear cache, clear dalvik cache, reinstall market, reboot, reselect English language, Market Enabler, downgrade to previous versions, etc. but I am still having problems with Market on CM7
On my Kindle Fire I have installed CM7.2.0-RC0-blaze-KANG, Market 3.4.4 and Google Services Framework 2.3.4.
Market will start and will allow me to browse through apps and to see the list of my apps that need updating, but it closes when starting downloading.
Can anybody help? Thanks

Had something like that happen to me recently. I had been messing with different mods and ended up backing everything up and then doing a full wipe and re-install. Pain in the rear i know, but with Titanium bu re-installing was pretty easy.
Good luck!
BTW I wiped the sd card as well since I think some of the app info is kept there as well. You might get away with just wiping the .Android_secure folder

Thanks a lot Nandorian.
I'll wait a few more days to see if somebody else come up with some alternative suggestion and then I'll go ahead with full wipe and re-install.
The annoying thing is that it is exactly what I did to start with: factory reset, full wipe, sdcard, cache, dalvik cash and I never got Market to work

Additional info
In addition to the problem with Market, I am also unable to install Google Calendar Sync and Contact Sync. Are the issues related?

SOLVED!!!
OK! after trying and retrying with no success I have finally followed Nandorian suggestion, wiped my Kindle and started from scratch ... but even this was not straight forward and it took me several attempts :-(

Here is the step by step procedure that fixes the Market and Google sync issues I had for weeks. I hope it helps other Android lovers that shared my same problems.

What's the best way to wipe an Android phone?

I have a T-Mobile HTC Hero. One thing I did, was reinstall the operating system, by downloading an updated OS from the T-Mobile website, and installed it using HTC Sync.
According to HTC Sync, this wipes everything on the phone and installs the new OS..
But is this actually the case? Does this really completely wipe the phone before installing it?
What I am looking to do... is completely wipe the phone, and then install the new OS. If I've already done that, good. If I haven't, I need to.
If you go to Settings and do a factory reset, that only resets user settings and removes applications. It doesn't wipe the OS and everything on the phone. As said, I need to do all of that, and the install the new OS.

You can either:
1) To initiate the Android device wipe process, first tap your Android Menu key to bring up a number of on-screen options.
2) Next, choose the Settings option within the on-screen menu, and on the following screen scroll down to and tap Privacy.
3) Within the Privacy Settings menu, tap the Factory Data Reset option, and on the following screen choose whether you want to wipe all data on your device, all data on your external microSD memory card or both, by filling in the appropriate check boxes. Then confirm the action by tapping Reset Phone.
4) You'll be prompted one more time to confirm your Android device wipe on the Factory Data Reset screen, and if you're sure you're ready to erase your device, tap the Erase Everything button to complete the process.
or to delete the data from your phone and to install a ROM:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIyYHfb1Afg
Reboot phone and then:
1. Press down button and Power button together.
2. Use the volume down button to select recovery then press the power button.
3. Okay use the volume down button and go to advanced three times.
4. Press the power button and use the trackpad to select.
5. Wipe/factory reset and then select yes.
6. Wipe cache
7. Select advance
8. Wipe dalvic cache
9. Select install from sd card then select the ROM you wish to install.
NB: I am not responsible for any data lost on your phone for the above.

[Q] Froyo -> ICS how

hi,
i have vibrant t959. and its running FROYO..i downloaded ICS RC5 from nyx. I would like to know how to update to that. my phone is rooted.
Please it would be much appreciated if clear STEPS are shown..
thank you

Procedure
Gingerbread
--------------------------------------------
You will be needing rooted Gingerbread for upgrading to ICS
--------------------------------------------
Root 2.3.6 :
--------------------------------------------
You have to use Super One Click 2.3.3
Before Root enable USB Debugging in Applications>Development
Open Super One Click as Admin if on Win7/Vista. Connect Phone. Click Root
--------------------------------------------
ICS
--------------------------------------------
You will need to install Clock Work Mod from ROM Manager for the procedure
-------------------------------------------
Procedure
-------------------------------------------
1. Go to Clock Work Mod recovery using the 3 key combo : volume UP + home button + power button, keep those pressed until it goes into the Clock Work Mod recovery.
2. Using the volume buttons to navigate up and down select Wipe Data/Factory Reset by pressing the home button, hit YES. Wait for it to finish and then Wipe Cache the same way you did with Wipe Data/Factory Reset. NoW Go to advanced menu> Wipe Dalvik Cache.Go back to main menu.
3. Now it`s time to flash the ICS SGS ROM :
4. Select install zip from sd card > choose zip from sd card> browse for the zip u downloaded>choose YES and let it do the magic. If it happens to reboot immediately into Clock Work Mod recovery with a different look (blue), it means it actually flashed just the ICS Kernel first.
Note: If u dont get to Clock Work Mod then you have done it.
5. If you do get there then browse for the zip again and flash it this time it will take longer as it has to install the complete ROM
6. Now all you need to do is wait for it to finish.After the flashing is done> Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache as you already know how to do it
7. Choose Reboot System Now. It takes 5-15 minutes to boot.

[ROM][KITKAT 4.4.2][unlocked BL only][CAYONOGENMOD11] by:Mr.Stenly

Hi guys i want to share my own version of CM11 and i post this here becouse i cant post to android deveopment page!
[Bugs]
Only bluetooth doesnt workig
[Description]
This is my own version of CM11 work smoothly and its light rom its small when you install it size is 500mb.
I fix many bugs like a:
Storage [Now shows 4gb] but you must to be with my kernel thunderzap dont work
Multitouch
GPS
Graphicx when you rotate screen
and many more
i make build.prop modyfications and now
You can download ALL apps on Google play store
I tryed many game like a Modern Combat [3,4], GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, Fifa 14 and all thease games run smoothly and phone dont goes hot or games not crashed
[instructions]
PRO:
1) THE USER INTERFACE IS VERY FAST,AND IT LOOKS VERY GOOD,IT HAS NICE ANIMATIONS AND EVERYTHING RELATED TO THIS.
2)THE CAMERA IS IMPOROVED.YOU NEED TO REDUCE THE EXPOSURE A BIT IN ORDER TO GET FULL SMOOTHNESS BUT THAT'S IT.IT JUST HAS MORE DETAIL THAN 4.2.2.
3)NO BLOATWARES,NOTHING.YOU CHOOSE WHAT TO INSTALL,HOW TO PERSONALIZE YOUR PHONE.
4)ALL THE CM11 FEATURES AND CUSTOMIZATIONS.
5)IT'S JUST KITAT,YOU WILL SIMPLY LOVE IT.
CONS:
1) INTERNAL STORAGE DOESN'T FULLY WORK.WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
- IF YOU INSTALL AN APP,A GAME,ANYTHING FROM PLAYSTORE,YOU CAN'T MOVE IT TO INTERNAL STORAGE.THIS OPTIONS JUST ISN'T THERE.
-THE INTERNAL STORAGE ISN'T SHOWN IN SETTINGS->STORAGE
-YOU CAN ACCESS THE INTERNAL STORAGE WITH A FILES BROWSER(STOCK ONE FROM CM11 IS GOOD).
-IF YOU WANT A BIG GAME,YOU CAN PUT IT'S CACHE IN INTERNAL STORAGE(BY CONNECTING THE PHONE TO PC) AND THEN INSTALL THE APK.IT WILL WORK.THIS WON'T WORK IF YOU PUT THE GAME'S CACHE ON SD CARD.
-ABOUT 300 MB WILL BE TAKEN BY SYSTEM(I DON'T KNOW WHY,HOW,BUT THIS HAPPENED TO ME).ANYWAY,IT'S NOT AN ISSUE
2)BLUETOOTH DOESN'T WORK.THAT'S JUST IT,NO WORKAROUND AT THIS MOMENT.I RARELY USE BT SO THIS ISN'T AN ISSUE FOR ME.I USE INTERNET TO SHARE FILES(WHATSAPP/FB/ETC)
3)IN CAMERA,YOU CAN'T SAVE THE PHOTOS/VIDEOS ON SD-CARD.THE CAMERA WILL FC.HOWEVER,AFTER THE DCIM FOLDER GETS LARGER,YOU CAN MOVE THEM MANUALLY TO SD CARD BY CONNECTING YOUR PHONE TO THE PC.
[HOW TO INSTALL]
I WILL RECOMMEND A CLEAR INSTALL(FULL FORMAT) AND THIS IS HOW MY TUTORIAL WILL BE BUILD.
0)Reflash your firmware.I did it this way to make sure I get rid off all bugs(optional).
ALSO MAKE SURE YOUR BOOTLOADER IS UNLOCKED.
0.5)[edit] Format system before step 8 ! [you'll find this option in recovery]
1)Back-up contacts,apps,etc and save everything you need from sd card(optional ~ if you want to format it too) and from internal storage and format them.
2)Reboot your phone,connect it to pc and in internal storage create a folder named " 0 " (without quotes) and move all folders and files there(the one that Android automatically creates).This will be your new internal storage.Whatever is outside that folder (0) it won't be accessible after flashing CM11.
3)DOWNLOAD ALL THOSE FILES: https://www.mediafire.com/?tdqp9embzum4ecd,y25w433x4f562eq,llv22wd5200nc39,yhh4h41tdsdl58w
4)MOVE ALL OF THEM(EXCEPT CM11.RAR) IN THE " 0 " FOLDER.
5)EXTRACT CM11.RAR ON DESKTOP.YOU SHOULD GET 2 FILES ( SYSTEM.IMG AND BOOT.IMG )
6)DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL FLASHTOOL: http://www.flashtool.net/download.php
7)INSTALL FLASHTOOL DRIVERS.GO TO C:/FLASHTOOL/DRIVERS AND INSTALL THE DRIVER.DURING THE PROCESS,TICK WHEN ASKED: FLASHMODE DRIVERS / FASTBOOT MODE DRIVERS / COMMON DRIVERS FOR TAOSHAN PLATFORM AND PROCEED.IF YOU'RE ON WINDOWS 8 CHECK THIS OUT: http://theconfuzedsourcecode.wordpr...install-flashtool-drivers-on-windows-8-64bit/
8)TURN OFF YOUR PHONE,REMOVE BATTERY AND REINSERT IT.START FLASHTOOL ON PC,KEEP VOLUME UP PRESSED WHILE CONNECTING YOUR PHONE TO PC VIA USB.IF EVERYTHING IS GOOD THE PROGRAM SHOULD SAY "DEVICE CONNECTED IN FASTBOOT MODE" AND YOU CAN RELEASE THE VOLUME UP BUTTON.IF NOT,CHECK OUT THE DRIVERS AGAIN.
9)IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER YOU'LL SEE AN ICON (LIKE A THUNDER ~ FLASHTOOL ICON).CLICK IT AND SELECT FASTBOOT MODE.A NEW WINDOW WILL APPEAR
10) CLICK ON " SELECT SYSTEM TO FLASH" , GO TO SYSTEM.IMG AND SELCT IT( WHERE YOU EXTRACTED THE CM11 RAR FILE ~ IF YOU DID AS I SAID IT SHOULD BE ON DESKTOP) AND WAIT ABOUT 2-3 MINUTES.THE PROGRAM DOESN'T CLEARLY SAY WHEN IT'S FINISHED( IT WILL WRITE " CHECK THE LOGS BEFORE REBOOTING TO SYSTEM " ) . AFTER 2-3 MINUTES CLICK ON "SELECT KERNEL TO FLASH " AND SELECT BOOT.IMG.IT WILL TAKE 5 SECONDS OR SO.
11)AFTER THIS CLICK "REBOOT TO SYSTEM" AND WAIT FOR PHONE TO BOOT UP.YOU CAN DISCONNECT THE USB AND CLOSE FLASHTOOL.
12)OPTIMIZE THE PHONE A LITTLE.IF YOU WANT TO DISABLE SYNC BEFORE FLASHING GAPPS(I DID THIS BECAUSE I DON'T NEED SYNC ~ I RECOMMEND TO DISABLE SYNC AND MANUALLY SYNC ANYTHING YOU NEED LATER) GO TO SETTINGS-> INTERFACE - > QUICK SETTINGS PANEL -> TILES AND LAYOUT -> TAP THE " ADD + " BUTTON AND SELECT SYNC.THEN DISABLE IT FROM NOTIFICATION BAR (TAP IT).AFTER THIS REBOOT AND LEAVE THE PHONE ASIDE FOR A WHILE.
13)DOWNLOAD GAPPS.CHOSE WHATEVER YOU NEED.I CHOOSED MICRO MODULAR PACKAGE AS I DON'T USE GOOGLE SERVICES.I RECOMMEND YOU TO DO THE SAME IF YOU MORE FREE RAM.HERE'S THE LINK TO CHOOSE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942
14)CONNECT YOUR PHONE TO PC ( FIRSTLY GO TO STORAGE -> TAP ON OPTIONS AND SELECT MTP MODE) AND MOVE PA_GAPPS ZIP TO INTERNAL STORAGE/0 (IN THE FOLDER WHERE graphical_glitches_fix / kitkat modules / UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94 zips are ).
15)DISCONNECT YOUR PHONE FROM PC,PRESS POWER BUTTON AND REBOOT.WHEN THE LED LIGHTS UP AND SONY'S LOGO PRESS VOLUME DOWN.THIS WILL GET YOU IN RECOVERY.DO A FACTORY RESET AND REBOOT.
16)ENTER RECOVERY AGAIN -> GO TO INSTALL ZIP -> FIND THE " 0 " FOLDER (IT'S IN SDCARD FOLDER) AND SELECT graphical_glitches_fix AND FLASH IT.REBOOT.DO THIS FOR THE REST OF THE ZIPS IN THIS ORDER:KitKat modules by stenly , UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94 , pa_gapps-modular-micro-4.4.2-20140412-signed .AFTER FLASHING THE LAST ZIP TAP WIPE CACHE/DALVIK CACHE AND REBOOT.
AGAIN,I RECOMMEND A REBOOT BETWEEN FLASHING ZIPS EVEN IF TWRP GIVES YOU TO OPTIONS TO SELECT UP TO 10 ZIPS TO FLASH THEM ALL AT A TIME.
17)AFTER THE PHONE BOOTS UP,PLAY A LITTLE WITH IT AND DO A FINAL SIMPLE REBOOT.
18)GO TO CAMERA AND TAKE A PHOTO.IT'S VERY IMPORTANT,THIS WILL GET INTERNAL STORAGE TO BE SEEN BY THE FILE MANAGER.AFTER THIS YOU CAN CHECK INTERNAL STORAGE(IT'S CALLED " 0 ") WITH THE FILE MANAGER.
19)IF YOU GET CAMERA FORCE CLOSE DO A REBOOT.I GOT FC FIRST TIME AND AFTER A REBOOT SINCE YESTERDAY I HAVEN'T EXPERIENCED ANY FC.DO NOT CHOOSE THE CAMERA TO SAVE PHOTOS ON SD CARD.IF YOU HOWEVER DO THIS,GO TO SETTINGS-> APPS -> ALL APPS AND WIPE CACHE FOR CAMERA APP.ALSO REMEMBER TO REDUCE EXPOSURE A LITTLE IF THE CAMERA ISN'T 100% SMOOTH.
20) CONNECT YOUR PHONE TO PC,MOVE BACK ALL YOUR FILES YOU'VE INITIALLY BACKED-UP AND THAT'S IT.IN ORDER TO RESTORE CONTACTS FROM SD CARD,FIND THE PIM00001.VCF FILE AND TAP ON IT.OPEN IT WITH CONTACTS AND IT'LL RESTORE ALL CONTACTS.FOR SOME REASONS,MY CONTACTS ARE SHOWING THE PHONE NUMER TWICE,I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY BUT IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL AND I HAVEN'T THOUGHT ABOUT IT MUCH.
PERSONAL OPPINION: I'VE BEEN USING THIS CM11 FOR COUPLE OF HOURS( ~ 24 HOURS ) AND I DON'T HAVE ANY COMPLAIN.IT'S SMOOTH,EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS,IT'S FAST.

Hmm.. Thanks for your work:good: I'll try it.

:good: keep going on your nice work.
in your next version ( I hope so ),
After doing all the installation steps and after putting your touch in themes, camera modification and other stuff,
Can you just make a single flashable zip or even a nandroid backup of the whole rom then upload it
it will make it much easier for us, specially those who don't have an available pc right now like me
