can you tell me how to partition properly so i dont lose my market app

You should only have to partition one time. Unless you decide to change the sizes.first,backup everything on your sdcard.Then boot in to recovery,choose partition sdcard.Then these are the sizes I use,you can choose different. 32 swap,528 ext,the rest is fat, which is what you can see when you plug into computer.After that is finished while still in recovery choose Usd-ms-toggle.Then plug phone into computer copy over a rom that you like.Then flash that rom reboot.Now you should have everything set up. After your fully booted plug your phone into computer,open command prompt,enter these cmds.
adb remount
adb shell
cd data/app/
pwd

if it returns system/app you have everything right and have apps running on sdcard.

Hey guys,

Does the AOSP dialer mod only work for certain ROMs? I'm trying to install on a phone that has Fresh ROM, but the dialer never changes after I flash the zip. I tried it a couple times and also tried Beezy's suggestion to clear dialer data, is there anything else I can do or other dialers I can try?

Thanks!

Have you tried to clear defaults,not data?

I've been looking for a simple black keyboard but haven't had any luck installing them. i have tried a couple from here and xda but can't install them through astro. can someone help me out?

Maybe I should start another thread about this, but I'm having an issue that is keeping me from getting into "Manage Applications" now. Whenever I select that, I get an error message: "The application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

I've read about this on a couple other threads and thought that wiping/re-flashing would do the trick, but I just wiped (factory reset and wipe Dalvik) and flashed a new ROM, and am still getting the same problem.

Anyone have any idea what I can do to troubleshoot this? Aside from not being able to try the AOSP dialer I think I'll have other problems if I can't get into Manage Applications.

Thanks!

What happens when you try to install them?

 

[aaron1981]

I just flashed this one from nfinitefx45 over at xda:

[ROM] Sprint 2.27.651.6 STOCK Deoxed w/apps2sd 6/18/2010:Update 2

 

[flipfone]

when you 1st flash the ROM you CAN get into apps however after you install 100+ apps then manage apps crashes. i dont know the eact number but its around 100. Is that your issue aaron1981?

 

[soo4i5]

starts installing and the progress bar pops up like any other apk then stops and says application could not install

 

[flipfone]

black keyboard - xda-developersDo you mean the keyboards from this thread ?? if so then you dont install the apk you flash it from recovery.

 

[soo4i5]

the first one i get install from sd card...
finding update package...
opening update package...
verifying update package...
E:no signature (2 files)
E:verification failed

 

[flipfone]

that means the file isnt signed so you cant install it. if you were trying the 1st file in that thread its because they posted in the wrong place. get the HTC_IME glossblack keyboard here http://www.4shared.com/file/Tq-k8bBB/HTC_IME-glossblack.html i believe thats what you want. i just flashed it myself, looks great!

 

[soo4i5]

thanks flip. it worked perfectly.

 

[flipfone]

Awesome. and thank you thats a sweet keyboard.

Hi, I tried getting into Manage Apps right after flashing the ROM. My apps are on my SD card so those are in place, but way less than 100 (maybe 10).

What happens is when I hit "Manage Apps", the dialog box pops up with the indicator that goes around in a circle, but freezes before the circle goes around once.

Thinking about this, maybe one of my apps is causing the problem? Is there some way for me to see each one and uninstall them one by one through command line?

Thanks for any input!

Use astro file manager from the market you can uninstall with it.

@Beezy Do you ever sign update.zips on MAC? If so, could you provide a break down as to how it's supposed to be done?
