Market issues HAVE NOTHING TO DO themes!!!

On every theme thread people keep reporting that the theme is causing the problem, they're NOT!!! The Market has had issues since 1.6, and they continue with 2.1, and the Market issues aren't just related to the X10.
Go to start a new thread and type "market issue", and you will see that other brands and handsets suffer from the problem too.
I know I haven't modded the Market app, and know that others haven't too, had we of done there might be something to suggest it's the theme, but we haven't and it isn't!!

Just uninstall the market update from "manage applications" and all should be well

Never said it was your fault mate. But it is something that is easily replicated for me. I only use your theme so do not have a comparison.
I am NOT complaining, I choose to do these things to my phone and I am aware of the risks.
The market seems to be getting worse rather than better, really wish they would pull their finger out and sort it.
I have no problems clearing market cache etc.....
Something about the process of applying themes certainly does seem to upset the market though, but like I said, I do not hold you responsible my friend.

Works fine most of the time, just wish the monkeys could sort it out for good. It is way too unstable.

I'm just saying as it's been said on every theme thread despite the issues existing since 1.6 and with other phones too.

Hate to say I told you so

Definitely not a theme thing. I've seen this happen with a fresh firmware install.
It has something to do with the Market update, and as others have said simply uninstalling the market update fixes the problem every time.

I don't really follow the other theme threads very much.
Like I said, messing with files like this is risky, just wish people were better prepared for when things go wrong.

And like I've said, the Market app hasn't been modified by any themer as far as I'm aware and as pointed out it's happened on a fresh install for one person which supports what's already been said.

Hopefully android will fix this bug soon!

They are aware of the problem for a longer time, but instead of making it better they just keep sliding downhill...it seems to be complicated. There were several times devs couldn't add their apps because of maintenance, so they are trying to solve it.

I know this has nothing to do with themes, because since I upgraded to 2.1 it happens to me almost once every other day. I just uninstall updates and it goes back to normal. It is obviously a Google issue.

If you guys have titanium backup pro, try using the its new feature of applying the market update directly into the rom (system/app). This seems to have increased stability for me. If you don't have the pro version, you can still move it via root explorer or adb.

I installed the theme step by step. but seriously the mearket stop working. it forces closing. it downloads as usual, but the problem is when it install, force closing.
can not install.
but i really like the theme. looks so mmwaaaaa !
i just repaired my phone.

is there a way to stop that stupid market updater?
it messes up my eternity theme, and disables appbrain FWInstaller :'(

Reedz, it isn't the theme mate. I believe it's simply the act of messing with those files that upsets market. I can often get the same result messing with other files. It is simply 'twitchy'.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

Guys i got the way to solve this, you need to navigate to settings/applications/manage applications/market/ then in market uninstall updates.
go back to market and start downloading as usual.
hope it helps.

these things happen often , if one is decided to mod and go against the shipped ROM , then we have to anticipate such things ...
anyway as Reedz posted , the solution simply worked... XperiaX10user , keep up the good work , whatever ,and however much we work , Sh!t just happens out of nowhere ... , anyway i am ur fan man... waiting for ur next release , hoping that you get on to more color and rich combo of colors...

Yep. I did that and was able to download as usual. The next time I opened the market after that it was the updated market again though so there doesn't seem to be a way to suppress it completely. However, after the market upgraded itself the second time (after the uninstall updates step) the new market worked perfectly fine with my modified theme. No issues.

[Q] Google Wallet

Does anyone have their Google Wallet still working? Seems like a wide spread disabling of google wallet on vz occurred over the last two weeks.
Device is rooted, load a back door wallet apk, installed fine, grayed message "Not supported"
Using stock ROM, is that the problem??

It says not supported but still works fine.

I was hoping the guy I quoted would chime in, or the other folks who had successfully changed their build prop to sprint and just installed from the market.
And I wasn't flaming. I simply stated that I have gotten this before and I know it's not that and you shouldn't throw blame around, saying that I broke my secure element.

These forums are just getting ridiculous the way people act. If you would have gave a little more detail about the problem then this wouldn't have happened. And you didn't have to come off like that to my response. The whole point of the forums are for people to help out and learn from each other otherwise if everyone was so smart there wouldn't be a need for them. Next time I suggest you just realize how your responding to someone before you just go off posting.

Pardon? Did you even read my post? It was pretty specific. I said what I did, where I downloaded, and what issue was coming up. My question was even directed at someone. Before you go pointing fingers, you should make sure you know what you're talking about, tough guy.

I had told u earlier that I changed my build. Prop to the Sprint version and working fine for me. I I actually reverted back to the verizon build prop more than once and back to the Sprint one and never any any issues.

The last time I got this issue I didn't flash the correct order of zips from the wallet thread. Upon doing so everything was fixed. I know how to install wallet, I just didn't know if changing your build prop to Sprint made it any easier since they were talking about updating from the market no problem. That was my only question.

[SOLVED]anyone else having trouble downloading from browser?

It seems no matter what Rom or kernel or combination I use I can't download anything from the stock browser or chrome. I've tried resetting the app cache and clearing data all to no avail. It's pretty annoying I can't even download anything from this phone. Anyone else have this problem or found a way to fix it?

Okay so...I don't have this device.
But..
On my galaxy nexus this happens sometimes.
And is fixed by a reboot.
I see u say you tried clearing app data and such...but did you try the almighty fix of a reboot?

I can understand that frustration.
I had major issues with downloading via chrome and aosp browser on my Gnex recently. It would download to 99% then BOOM unsuccessful.
Installed Firefox and presto magico it worked fine. Maybe give that a shot? Chrome has been irritating me lately not only on android but on my Linux mint setup. So I've been mainly using Firefox on both with it's sync setup, and must say I'm very pleasantly surprised by its performance and usefulness.
Hopefully this can work for you also. Or maybe try downloading a "download manager" app. Can't help in pinpointing your issue but MAYBE using Firefox or download manager app will subvert the issue for now.
I'm curious either way lemme know how it goes.
(And I'm sure you aren't alone fully, others probably have the issue but just don't know it yet due to not downloading same things or big downloads or whatever reason lol)

after downloading Firefox it still wouldn't download but it gave me more information. it gave me an error saying emulated storage couldn't be changed. After trying to mount and unmount and fix permissions I remember I encrypted my storage awhile ago and forgot to revert it when I reset between changing roms. I just had to boot to recovery and format data to unencrypt and presto after weeks of no downloads they now work again.

Huawei's decision to use its own memory manager....

Ok, so this was a huge problem on the Mediapad X1. Where huawei's memory manager kills apps in the background. Why do we need task killers today Huawei? Please stop
On the Mediapad X1 there were a bunch of apps like Google Hangouts that would get killed even though you tell it not to get killed via "Protected Apps", having your texting app not run in the background is bad as you can imagine. So now I have an X2 and it seems like this Protected App thing actually works better, however I noticed today that the bluetooth services were getting killed in the background as it would not pair with my car until I turned on the screen. Because these are built in services you can't "Protect" them.
Just posting this here so hopefully Huawei can see it and fix it
But seriously, they should just use the memory manager built into android and not try to monkey around with, we don't need task killers any more.

I have had Textra recommended to me as a work-around for MMS texting glitches. I am used to that now and will try it but if I have problems I will try your app. By tweaks I just meant that so much of what most of you do is not what a "regular" cell phone user would know. I had no idea there were memory manager things I might need to address. (I haven't done that before). That is why I am here. To learn about new things and to be prepared as much as possible for when (at this point it is "if") my 702L gets here!

You have to go into startup manager and check each app, protected apps and trust each application, add it to startup, and in permission manager you have to trust each application. I agree though, I wish this didn't exist as there's no need for it. If you're rooted you can take it out but you'll lose the Do Not Disturb mode as it is baked into it.

I was rooted on the X1 and getting rid of the Power Manager still made stuff die in the background, it was pretty irritating. So far with the X2 it mostly works. As far as I can tell only bluetooth dies (Which I can't add to any of those apps as its a system app)
The X2 is such a better phone than the X1. I hope Huawei keeps on top of bug fixes. With a generic android memory manager this phone would be truly awesome.

I got my X2 today from fashioncoconuts on eBay and everything is good. It even came unlocked. I'm liking these eBay sellers.
Edit: after I did a factory reset it said the bootloader was locked. Now when I use Google Maps it tells me I must update my Google Play Services. When I do my Google Account Disappears and my Play Store doesn't open. I'm beginning to dislike Huawei's implementation of their apps. Blocking certain apps from being installed is totally lame on Huawei's part. Now the waiting game begins for my unlock code. I'm giving them three days. If not both phones are going on eBay and I'm done with Huawei. Rant over.

Yeah. They told me they shipped it out on the 5th and didn't until the 15th. Now I know why. They raised the price too right after I bought it. A lot of these eBay sellers jack the price up way too high. No one should pay more than $399 for it. I'm just glad it came already unlocked. It seems Huawei is no longer sending emails to people with the unlock codes anymore.

Ok, this morning bluetooth connect up fine (I'm on B108)
But I noticed the Lux (screen brightness app) had stopped in the background.
Services shutting down in the background was a huge issue on the X1 and for the most part seems to work on the X2 but it seems some things still get killed in the background once in a while even though they are "Protected Apps"
I'll keep monitoring and see if I notice anything else...

BAD LUCK! Just posted to get empathy

Yesterday I flashed CM 13.1 on my OPO and postponed the final tune ups and settings to later and went out to the gym and LOST it there (Or possibly has beed stolen!) and It's so painful because I hadn't installed and activated Adnroid Device Manager and teh Lockscreen was open //I feel very upset now…

Just saying, is it too hard for them to go to recovery and flash any other rom? They can erase your current rom as well no matter what security app you use, right? So, the sooner this thread gets deleted......

Theoretically Cerberus pro can resist a Factory Reset, but I don't know how it does that and if it's bypassable...

Maybe you can try something like AndroidLost? Though, I believe it requires Google account to be on device beforehand. I'm not sure if it's compatible with CM13, but nothing wrong with trying at this point

very useful tips. But unfortunately the location on my device was been always deactivated (just when i wanted to search am adress manually, and that was 4 days before I lost!!)

well report it stolen that way they block the emei I think. Then you are sure they wont be able to do anything on the phone. In rare cases they find it and can get it back. Very rare cases. Hope your new phone will be just as satisfying

use your cyanogen account. You can use it to locate and wipe if need be and track too!

The unit is not lost.. the IMEI is. It is an invalid one. No matter what I try and have done to the unit it does not come up as a valid one. I was told I would need to change it and then it would be fine. Any help would be great! :good:
