More Froyo

Looks like we have to go without a theme until the market issues are fixed. That might need to be added to the OP.
I'm themed right now. Didn't bother going stock. Is everything working with the market with no theme?
 
I think theres a very important lesson here people are missing

CW Nandroid restore = wipes everything
SPR Nandroid restore = can install over WITHOUT wiping everything

If you only have CW, download RM, and use it to flash SPR, then once you install, go back into RM and reflash CW (if you want)
This is FALSE!
If you boot in to CW recovery and go to nandroid>advanced restore, you have the option to restore whatever part you want.
Just be sure to wipe the sections you want to restore also ;)
 
can anyone please respond to my post from page 2?
not sure if anyone posted for you yet since i stopped reading at this post and decided to let you know what i did.
1. use clockworkmod recovery
2. wipe data/cache - factory reset
3. load backup per directions
4. flash new kernel and radio (if you wish)
5. do NOT log into google account when the phone comes back on
6. download the apps you want from market or backup from TB
7. now go to menu>settings>accounts&sync and log into google account
8. don't forget flash 10.1
9. ENJOY
This is what I did and it's the only way I could do it that would not cause the phone to crawl and bug out. hope this helps
 
Well this is nice and all, but I'm going back to bugless beast until somebody comes up with a flashlight app that works on froyo. It's a very small thing, but not having it really sucks. I use it several times a day now.


Have you ever tried quick settings its a cool app that lets you change your volume, gps, wifi, bluetooh and brightness and has a flashlight in it. you can have it in your notification tray. should check it out

I'll let ya know in just a minute. I just flashed it again without a theme and it is restarting now.
Ok cool. Weird that a theme would break the market like that. Unless this leak has something new in it tied to the market that the themed market doesn't have (from the original leak) if that makes any sense lol
 
jhank did you wipe data cache before installing newest version.

Market works for me.

It's either a theme issue or wipe/cache issue.

I wiped data/cache btw
 
OK I just updated via Clock work. Here is what I did:

Downloaded file and extracted 2010-06-08.03.05.55
Copied 2010-06-08.03.05.55 to my cloclworks backup folder on the SD card
Booted into recovery
Backed up current system.
Restored 2010-06-08.03.05.55
Loaded 1.25 Kernel
Restored data from last backup.
Rebooted.
Everything there and working great!!

Please note I do not have any after market themes just personal background picture.

I definitely wiped before installing.
Only issue is my paid downloads aren'y showing. Well, some are, some aren't
 
the only way a theme would break it is if its a whole new market. I would wait until I report the theme other apks could have change and you guys just loaded all the old apk from the previous leak
 
any advice before i flash my firmware back to 2.0.1

i am having a similar problem..

Checking MD5 sums...
Erasing boot before restore...
REstoring boot image...
Error while flashing boot image!

i have tried the spr method as well and failed.
i have the firmware version 2.1 - update1
i have tried on multiple different roms.
the general recommended instructions have been followed exactly.
i have followed all instructions from fellow users with no positive outcome.

pending any advice the only thing i can think left to do is flash sbf back to 2.0.1 and root and try this again.

please someone out there save me the trouble..

apologies for any incorrect terminology.. i have only been rooting my droid for about 5 months now. so i am a noob in sense.
 
Yeah for me also a lot of my paid apps aren't showing up. Time to go back to the first release.
