Hello there, I am in need of some slight help...
I flashed Darky's 7.0 from stock Eclair on my brother's i9000, and I am having trouble with the Dialer application. I figured it might had been a bad flash, so I flashed 6.0 from 7.0 (no lagfixes have been applied at any time), but the issue remains.
The phone can make calls normally, but when receiving calls the app will force close, and I get "No Service" for a fraction of a second. I figured maybe the problem was a corrupt Dialer (2.2.1), but I can't figure out where to download a fresh version (or where I should put it once I download it, for that matter).
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
Update on my situation... I figured the apk is called Phone.apk and that I can find it on the ROM zip file. When I try to paste it over the old Phone.apk using root explorer, i get a force close of some application, and I get "No Service" for a fraction of a second... again.
I'm guessing pushing it through ADB might be worth a try... how exactly would I go around to do that?
2nd EDIT:
Even though Darky's rom says you can flash from anything without wiping data... that is precisely what was causing the problem. Re-flashing the rom with Wipe Data/Cache selected fixed the problem.
Sorry for wasting your time!

I'm posting here because I don't know what else to do, my phone freezes using any froyo rom. It happens randomly and sometimes will not happen until I reboot the phone, but it makes my phone pretty much unusable. I've tried the leaked froyo rom, BB, CM 6 1&2 and countless others. I've tried wiping data / cache and formating the SD card (worked until i put my music back on), and I'm about to just try stock 2.2 and exchange it for a new one if it wont work.
Anyone else have this problem that could help me?
One thing I didn't see you do...
Have you at all root your phone to install the desired froyo rom for your phone?
Yes I am rooted, I'm currently on CM 5.0.8 and very happy but I would really like to get froyo working.
Alright. This is what I've done to get Froyo working on my Droid: I rooted my phone, downloaded BB v4 and changed the name of the file to update, installed Rom Manager on my phone(then found out I can download the roms from here as well), reboot into recovery through rom manager, wiped data & cache, selected install zip, then selected reboot phone. It took a bit to register but it converted over with BB v4.
I think I've found my problem
droidforums.net/forum/tech-issues-bug-reports-suggestions/67526-music-sd-card-causes-bb-4-freeze.html
this sounds like my exact problem, I'm going to look through my library and see if there is a corrupt file then try again
Hopefully that is the source of the issue and that'll be solved quickly. Good luck to ya
Noticed this in quite a few custom ROMs that market doesn't work after flashing. I kept getting the 'download unsuccessful' errors all the time. So on a hunch, I replaced the vending.apk and MarketUpdater.apk files in /system/app with the same files from CM 6.1 beta, and market started working again (as in I can download files again). However, now I am getting market FCs every minute or so. Is there any other that probably needs to be replaced? What are the market's dependencies?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
i have the same problem with market: download unsuccesful but i didn't flash my phone or anything. i tryed but it didnt work. after a while i've noticed that the market send me this msg when i try download smth.
how we solve this?
bump...
someone please help...
Ok, I have a solution here (sort of) which I've tried on various custom ROMs now and it works. Last time I replaced vending.apk and marketupdated.apk and it gave me FC's all over the market. So, this time, instead of replacing individual APKs, i flashed the whole Google Apps package from CyanogenMod via recovery. It solved the market issues for me.

and how exactly u did that? there are a lot of files/dirs there, which one to download?
Hey aatifahmad,
I also would like to learn how to apply this update.zip. I tried it via recovery but it seems I had recovery 3e and it does not do unsigned update.zip. Do you have a workaround for this issue or did you revert back to recovery 2e?
If you have an easier way, please let us know. I really don't want to mess with the recovery.
I need help please. My phone is not in a good place.
Here's my current state:
AOSP 2.3.2 (Gingerbread) [02/09/2011] installed
Home Button doesn't work
Phone Button doesn't work
No Market app installed so can't download anything
Browser works
Incoming calls don't work
Outgoing calls do work
Lock screen doesn't show up
Probably many more issues with things I haven't tested
Here's how I got there:
1) Installed AOSP 2.3.2 (Gingerbread) [02/09/2011] with Firerat's Mod
2) Everything seemingly worked well. Was prompted by Market to install all of the google apps
3) The apps from Marketplace didn't install. I ended up finding the "fix the Market" link on the Wiki and that solved the problem
4) Installed the core apps but some wouldn't install - like Voice Search - failing with an Insufficient Space error I believe
5) Started revisiting the parameters for the Firerat mod (mtdpartmap.txt) and reflashing the FR-boot
6) Didn't solve problem so decided to flash/wipe/reinstall AOSP 2.3.2 again
7) Got me to the state I'm in now. I tried 3 more times, still this is happening.
Going to try now with the 20110210 build and see if that's better. I see there's a fix for the lock screen so maybe it's related. Meanwhile, has anyone seen these symptoms before?
Thanks!

Sorry to hear about that, but I would recommend you to follow the steps from here: http://romrepo.info/wiki/index.php?title=Install_from_another_ROM. Try doing it without Firerat's MOD. Perform step # 2 - 2 to 3 times, before you flash the ROM.
Try and report back. Hope it helps.
SOLVED
2/10/2011 update solves this problem!
When you flash a different Ron, you need to go through the whole from process starting with fr- recovery after wiping/formatting everything. I have had troubles with 2/10. Maybe bad download. I get a weird keyboard error and it wants to send Google a report and can't get by that to start signing in.
I flashed on top of 2/6 yesterday, but still had VVM problems. I finally got that sorted out with 2nd method in GB wiki and started new TB folder.

I've seen other people having this issue, but no fixes as of yet. Does anyone have a fix for this?
I updated my Captivate with the leaked Fugu kernel of Gingerbread. I thought everything was working fine, but it turns out that I'm not able to answer calls. When I get a call, the screen blacks out, and then the calls get forwarded to Voicemail. I can't answer the calls at all. Also, it kills any connection I have at that time, so 3G and the bars go away, and I get the circle with a line through it. Then after about 30 seconds, everything comes back, with four bars. Everything else seems to work fine, and I can make outgoing calls with no problem. Texts work great, MMS, and web.
Ideas??
Baseband: I897UCKF1
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-I897UCKF1-CL273832
Firmware: 2.3.3
Build: GINGERBREAD.UCKF1
If u want to stay on the leaked stock i897uckf1, then i suggest u flash designgears Cognition Beta 2 Kernel (it's rooted of course) and if that doesn't fix the issue, then reflash the KF1 modem (or i897 modem of ur choice.)

hey Teejeaux
I have been having the exact same problem. i did gingerbread with fugu also. i had started a thread here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1168128 .... and bumped it three times but still no answer. maybe you will get lucky and someone will shine in that knows about the problem.
i am also wondering if the problem happens because we restored contacts and messages. Teejeaux did u restore any contacts and messages using TB or from the export feature in the contacts menu if so then that might be the problem. I restored contacts on both mine and my brothers captivate and we are having the same problem.
Good Luck
edit: stangri and killer_raj had responded but i had not noticed sorry.
edit: prbassplayer replied in my thread with a link to flash just gingerbread without bootloaders here. i would use the one that says "odin 3 file no bootloaders" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145149

and yes restoring data & apps from tibu is cause of forceclose and freeze and lot of times...
not all the time..and when u know what u r doing...so just see after the fresh install everythin works fine..then dont use tibu...
the best n the cleanest..safest way of restroing contats and sms..which i always use...
from contacts..import/export...and export to sd card..u wil hav just one vcf file..having all ur contacts in it..so u can even copy that to ur comp for future use....and restore later when u done flashin..
and smsbackup and restore app by ritesh sahu in market..its free..and it makes a backup on ur internal sd..so copy it to comp or to external sd after taking backup...later after install put that back on internal sd..and install app and restore ur sms...
and i dont use tibu to restore my apps..i always hav the apk's i use ..so i fresh install after the flash...or i download them again from market..so i never had any freeze/forceclose problem ..after any new rom flashin...
Simple troubleshooting:
If <ROM Version Here> starts acting funky (no calls, data, force closes etc..)
I would recommend flashing back to stock - I would also perform a factory reset on the device and even go so far as to format the SD Card (I know might be extreme but you know your phone is def wiped clean)
Re-flash the ROM and don't install/restore anything! Still having issues? Post it on the Q&A of <Insert Rom Name Here> forum or look to see if there is a known issue.
To me this sounds like a bad flash - or the modem didn't flash correctly.
TiBu isn't necessarily bad - but I don't try and use it to restore system data - only application backups/data as your less likely to have issues with force closing.
But... now days I have my app list paired down to just the actual apps I use - so its easier to restore the apps from the Market and restore my Angry Birds saved games
Hi, I have rooted 2.3.6 (I9000XXJVT). There is random problem with dialer. It's crashing when I start dialing number and just back to home screen without warning. Any help? PS. The same was with older version of android. THANKS!
i have this issue to
does anybody know the solution if not i think i might have to reflash via odin
Have you tested to see if the proximity or light sensors are faulty as i had similar crash problems force closes and just returning to the home screen and it is my proximity sensor not working and when you try to make the call and the phone dont do what the cpu is saying that's not right it just gives up

Try this:http://www.mediafire.com/?h9n6e4qwagaln3f
Copy two files in system /app and then reboot.
your rom ust be rooted and deoxeded
First of all, @OP and followers:
I think that you have force close error on com.android.phone, right?
Second, for the helpful guy: the solution depends: there are two version of fix, for odexed and deodexed phone, both available After magic button: SEARCH use

and this stops you from trying the solution provided above? OK guys, so please wait. I hope that within 12 months someone will look for it specifically, as you do not want to replace phone.apk.
