[Q] HP running CM7 app issues - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

SOLVED (kinda)
I have a bit of a rare issue here, thanks for taking the time to read.
Recently my HP Touchpad running CM7 will not download additional content for apps. It WILL INSTALL APPS / UPDATES (most issues found similar won't install anything, that is not my issue). To be more specific Madden 12 & Dead Space (both purchased). They install fine. They load. It says there is an additional download required (300 MBs or so) and they tell you download failed. There are no issues with my internet connection (already tried at work and home).
I have tried rebooting, airplane mode on & off. I have loaded the ROM manager and reset permissions. Anything I'm missing here?
Thanks in advance!
P.S. I posted this here because it does not meet the requirements to post in the development forum

you need to change your build.prop file to another device, like the GT-i9100

Check this out it my help

Looks like great info. I'll try it tonight. Thanks!

No good. Just to clarify there is no issue with installed or launching the apps. I am just unable to download the extra content (server rejecting connection? I'm not sure). I have them both installed no problem on my stock incredible. Thanks for the quick responses earlier

It's a known issue with all EA apps, and only EA apps, on the touchpad. The only solution I know is to install the game and data on another Android device like a phone and then copy the data over. Once you do that the first time it should download updates normally after that when there are updates.

Most hd games have a device check and a device specific or hardware specific versions. I think its a matter of the wrong version of the app. Usually the snapdragon or andreno gpu versions work. Some games just really don't want to run.

Solved.
UPDATE: I got fed up, rooted my droid incredible and copied the data. Works fine... I really wanted a solution so I don't have to do that in the future, oh well! Thanks for the help

I experienced the same issue with Shadowgun recently. I contacted the company and was told that their servers occasionally have issues with the game data downloads. (Madffinger games). I attempted the download the following day (with no build prop changes) and was able to d/l the files with no issues. If there is going to be an issue with build properties, it will show up when you try to download the game. This was the issue with Mad Finger but there might be other issues involved with your downloads. Just sayin.....

i cant download anything in the android market anymore and i dont know why

i recently noticed when i try to download any app from the android market or update an app it will act like its starting the download but then never actually start it. im running the latest cyanogen rom. i have tried wiping and reflashing the latest cyanogen rom and reflashing the google apps addon. i have tried restoring to a previous backup when the apps were working in the market. i have tried flashing a non cyanogen rom even. nothing i can think of (my thoughts are limited since im fairly new at all this) and still no success. i had the same problem on my g1 with cyanogen and i somehow managed to get that working again by trying similar things but no luck yet with my nexus one and its really upsetting me. any ideas on how i can go about fixing this? thanks for all your help

May sound stupid (and yes, it is) but try launching google talk. Often bby logging in to talk, market downnloads kick off. Seems to be google account related.

try going into settings, applications, market, and uninstall updates, then open the market again

OK I tried the uninstall updates idea and no luck there. Opening Google talk also didn't solve the problem. Any other ideas guys? Thanks
I wonder if you ever found a solution to this?
Well for me, I have to open GTalk and close it and reopen and close and reopen...it eventually works when it fully loads... Oddly, it seems to only happen on wifi. I'm pretty sure it's a GTalk issue.
Hopefully the new market system will make a difference...I really hope
How's the amount of space on your phone? Do you see the little hard drive icon? I know that the Market always starts to download stuff but never actually downloads anything when my phone space its low.
Hope this helps!

What keeps USAA Mobile from loading?

The Market app is happy to download the USAA app and attempt to load it, but it's always unsuccessful.
Any ideas why and whether something can be done about this? I'd really love to use this application.
As a 30+ year member, I wanted it too and got it to work once when I first loaded it, then no joy. Cleared data and uninstalled.
I just use Dolphin HD to go to the actual site. Works fine and goes to USAA Mobile without issue.
I was having the exact same trouble with the USAA app when my tablet arrived in the mail. I have found that the fix described in the following link will get it working for Vegan Tab 5.1 (and I would assume for any other ROM where the app is displayed but it will not install):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845175
Please post back on here if you have any luck!
Works for me
The app works fine on mine, running VEGAn-Tab 5.1.1 and Clymsen's Kernel ver. 9.

"Working" in the sense that it will install and run for you? The market fix just changes the search results, so I can't see how that would help with installation. I have no difficulty locating the app, nor in downloading it. The problem seems to be entirely on my tablet when installation is attempted.

Would you be willing to post a copy of the .apk you're using? One can easily be created using appack.
Pulled from my Titanium Backup
Here is the .apk, though in fairness it does not work on my wife's Nextbook2 tablet. It would be nice if CWM was loadable on it, it is a decent piece of hardware, even better with a decent rom.

Thanks for posting that. Unfortunately, I can't get it to sideload.
I haven't tried to load the market on mine so I can't install the app on the Tablet. My cell phone seems to use the google mapping GPS function with the USAA mobile app. Could that be whats causing the refusal to install? I know I had to enable it to get the app to install .

That would have been my guess, but michaeljwestii has it running on his g-Tablet.
I did try using location spoofing apps and tried installing it with the CyanogenMod 7 ROM that has functioning location service over WiFi. In neither case would it even install.
mine doesnt install either
I cannot get the app to display in market on my gtablet (running CM7 nightly or stable) and I cannot get android market from the web to push it my gtablet either. So I had my son install the app (version 3.3) on his epic and i side loaded it. Run just fine for me. What kind of error is everybody getting when they try to side load the app?

The standard, un-helpful "Application not installed" notification in Package Installer.
Maybe a kernel issue. It installed from the Market just fine on 4349 (1.2 kernel). When I downgraded back to 3588, it again wouldn't install.
Works on my tab...running Vegan Ginger.
3.3 version of the USAA app.

I have had that error in a couple of situations which I think does not sound they apply to your case but here were my solutions. One was To go into ROM Manager and have it fix file permissions, reboot, then try to reinstall the app. The other one was when I already had an older app installed and tried to install a newer app. I used Titanium Backup to force uninstall the older app and then exit Titanium Backup and install the newer app. For some odd reason the older app did not show up in market.
I had the USAA app installed at one point. I was able to use FakeGPS app (from android market) to manually set my location, but that was only required for the mobile check deposit function (which worked!). All other functions were working without that.
I'm now having trouble finding the USAA app on the google market, on either my Viewsonic Gtablets (one Brilliant Corners 1.2.1, other is TNT lite, 4.4). I lost the app when reformatting my tablet. I did the market fix, although not clearly different markets (is there a way to tell?). Anyone else able to find the app? Guess I'll try to sideload from the link above.

Okay time to add on to this quick post at the start of the thread. I am running this on VeGan Tab as the ROM of choice. The App switches from portrait to landscape mode with a minor reload. The search look exactly the same as before. One of the cool feature is the ability to side scroll between the home screen and categories to the left and top paid, top free, top grossing, top new free, and trending. From each of these you can scroll up and down. The scrolling is just a tiny bit laggy but not a hugh issue. Clicking on an app opens a nicely laid out window which fills the entire display and is well laid out in my opinion. The one odd issue is when you click on the screen shots they only display in portrait mode. Also the movie preview streams are excellent they do not lag even on my slow internet connection.
It is my recommend for all tablet users 2.2 and higher to install this update to the app store

Even users with HC? I've been putting this off because I thought it was for Froyo/GB people.

What I know of this update is that it is for 2.2 and higher. from the google blog...
Recently, we’ve been hard at work improving Android Market to give you new ways to find great applications and games, purchase books, and rent movies. Today, we’re releasing a new version of Android Market which makes all of these available on phones (Android 2.2 and higher).
So I take it this is not on the HC builds and it can be used on the HC builds. As with anything like this your mileage will vary. I just put my two cent worth in on the update.
Tried on Stock 3588 but no go which of course I did not think it would work.
I like the new Market however I keep getting a force close if I try to add a customized icon shortcut via Better Cut. I have to drag the app icon from the application menu & add it to my launcher bar, which is fine but I can't use a customized icon.
I am running this on Flashback rom with no problems.
Actually have two Markets to pick from for now so I'll wait and see which I like better.
Downloaded Zinio from new market and updated a few apps no problem.
Now if we can get Netflix to work on Flashback this would/will be a great tablet and replace my laptop.
Anybody try it on HC yet? I really like the layout of the HC market.
any hack fix for this version of the market
Any hack fix
Anyone tried it on Honeycomb yet?
Running BoS 6.0 Alpha nad so far no problems.

Im on Vegantab GE and I get a force close after a few seconds every time I open it. I have tried clearing the cache, clearing data, going into CWM and clearing cache and data there and even fixing permissions. Nothing seems to work. Anyone else experiencing this?

Had this happen to me but doing something different. Before you go wild and try a lot of things, I found out that this may be caused by your contacts getting corrupted. If you have Titanium backup and can get into it, wipe your contacts/account data and you'll be fine.
If not, you most likely DON'T have to NVFlash your device- just wipe your data&cache if you have CWM recovery installed.
Whoa... Nice improvements. This is SLICK!

I've ran it on flashback 5.4 with no problems, but i like the hc version better.

Yeah, the contacts don't have anything to do with the market so Im not even going to bother. Are you runing Vegan Gingeredition? If you are it may be safe to assume that the issue is a conflict there. Need more feedback from others running Vegan GE to know for sure. For know I just reverted back to the orig market and it runs fine, I don't plan on renting any movies anyway, (not that they play on rooted devices) so not having the new market doesnt bother me a lot.

the new market is awesome tho. i have it on my droid 1 with no issues. i guess ill just have to stick with the original market for now. i dont care about the movies or books either but it just looks so cool haha

[REQUEST] Sirius XM 1.6 APK

Does anyone have, or have access to, the new apk (v. 1.6) of the Sirius XM app? I would love to try it on my Xoom and see if it works. This is the only thing missing from my perfect tablet.
This was the first thing I thought of when I saw the update was released. Sadly I still can't make it work, it gets stuck at the "checking for updates" notification and then times out back to the login screen.
I've tried clearing the app data and reinstalling the app with no results. If you or anyone else figures this out please share.
Try inserting the app into data/data with matching permissions.
May work that way. Maybe.
It's working for well for me, doesn't look perfect, but the station quality is great.
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
^ what method did you use to install?
once again it only works on 3g xooms... sigh
I suspected something like that when I saw the permissions requirements on install. It requires (Phone calls: read phone state and identity) and (Serices that cost you money: directly call phone numbers), which seems kind of odd to me unless they're using your phone number to track/identify you to the service, or determine your location / country (license or channel listing data maybe?) to build the initial app database.
So this means it's probably getting stuck trying to access the device modem and because there isn't one it just times out.
I'm curious to see if someone who also has the app on their phone and copied the /data/data/com.sirius folder over to the xoom after installing the .apk normally would have any better luck. My phone is rooted but my xoom is not so I can't try it.

Looking for the apk for 1.6.1, if anyone can help and provide, would be much appreciated

Market- your device is not compatible.

Hi all. All of the sudden (or maybe I just noticed) hardly any apps are compatible with my device on the web market.
I had the latest apk with the +1 and yellow incompatability message so uninstalled it to try and resolve the issue as I was getting the message for most apps even ones like Skype which say in the description they are compatible!
I was on kratos when I first noticed it (full restock and flash as per guide). I have wiped cache, dalvik, fixed permissions, factory reset, re flashed, smashed my head against a wall etc etc you name it- nothing works.
I like my LCD density quite low at 175 and have heard this can cause issues but this problem seems to occur even at 240. I'm on 200 now and running an older market as I'm also now running cm7 because I was sick of this happening on overcome- it seems I'm the problem though, not the Tom, otherwise everyone would have this issue. WTF is going on?! What can I do?! On the older market a massive handful of apps don't show, and on the web market pretty much anything is incompatible.
I know this type of thing is discussed in variances across different threads but it is my hope that by starting this thread anyone else who might share my problem or get it in the future or already have solved it, will be able to come here for some answers.
Hope someone can help me!

This has just started happening for me too. I have a feeling its because I don't have a SIM card in it and I'm only using it with WIFI. I've seen similar issues with owners of the P1010 which is WIFI only. I can't be sure if that's the problem but it's driving me crazy.
Please help :|
Could also be the new version of the market? I tried uninstalling the update but it just reinstalled straight away and the 'market autoupdate' app doesn't show up in the market for me...
Hi I have also found the same just after installing LCD density and changing it to 200 I have a sim card installed so it is nothing to do with the sim. I manage to download the apk's from other sources and love the screen at the new LCD density setting so will not be uninstalling it.
I changed my density as well and have the same issue. The solution I have found is that the old version of the market works fine, so uninstall the update, then either delete or rename marketupdater.apk.
Your market should now function properly.

Where is the marketupdater.apk? I did a 'find / -name .apk | grep market' but nothing. Or do I need to uninstall the market updates first?
I use an app called systemapp Uninstaller, I found it in system apps

Thanks a lot. That did the trick. I used a free apparently called Remover.
Hopefully Google fix this soon. I liked the look of the new market

Hey dudes...
This solution worked for me and my viewpad7 w/ FlintFire ROM and screen rezised. The market was driving me crazy with "your device is not compatible with this application" message.
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the input all, I'll give it a go. I know that I can reach market updater through t.backup. if it works I'm going down to 175 that's the perfect LCD density for me!!
