If your phone has been through a ROM change and multiple SBF restores, there's pretty much no way your data partition is still in a well-working state. As anoying as it is, I would reccomend you clear your cache and data (i.e. a factory reset) and redo the SBF to get a perfectly clean phone. Then re-root and maybe give Fission another try. The problem is, when you change ROMs, you almost always have to factory reset (unless special care was taken by the ROM developer to make things stay compatible).

Get into the app manager and clear your Market's data and cache, reboot the phone, try to see if it still does it. Then report back. If problem persists we'll see about other fixes.

nope, same stuff :/ it says its installing but it stays there after i get the error message :/

Okay. Wipe your Dalvik cache. There's an app in the Market called Cachemate. I don't know how effective it is, though.

what? also i cant download anything off the market period :/

 

[furbearingmammal]

Ah. Well, my suggestion to you is to get Bootstrapper, install it, reboot into recovery, do a wipe (but not a factory reset) if the option exists in Bootstrapper, reboot, uninstall Bootstrapper with terminal commands (I can provide those) and see if it fixes things. If not, you should do it manually.

Bootstrapper can be downloaded and installed independently of the Market.

i have it already, i just did a factory reset, and all my apps and everything are still there, it works now, thanks!

 

[furbearingmammal]

Great!

That's the problem with running stock (not that you D2G guys have much choice) -- no real options except the big gun to clear things out/up. Glad it's working, though!

 

[Droid DOES!!]

They do now. There's a zip to flash that allows a D2G to run a D2 custom ROM

Great!

DroidForums Junkie!!

Still pretty much stock. Without a kernel a ROM is only a theme, basically.

But yes, there are "ROMs" out there for the D2G.

I have had the same problem too. It started, or I noticed it yesterday, didn't think much of it but today the same thing. I am rooted, and that is about it, never installed any ROM's. bootstrapped, but that is it.

 

[furbearingmammal]

First, do a data/cache wipe from within the app manager. If that doesn't work, then reboot into bootstrap.

Using bootstrap, wipe, but do not do a factory reset the first time. If you have to do a factory reset then back up anything you can't afford to lose just in case.

so how do i go about putting fission on? last time i did it, i slid the unlock and i just kept getting error messages, i went into clockwork and installed it off the SD card, i really dont feel like doing RSD again, so can anyone guide me though it?
