I installed last night, ands over all, I'm lovin it- except that the market won't open! No fc message, when you touch the market icon, the normal white screen with the loading indicator comes up, then, after a few seconds, it closes and goes back to the home screen. If I go to running applications, it shows it, but killing it and trying to re start does the same thing. Going in to manage applications, market, it does not show that I can un install updates or clear cache.
Anyone have any suggestions? I've tried to re flash lgb 1.0, but that didn't help either. Any way too get the market apk so I can try to re install it, and see if that fixes it?
 
Did I miss something? Where is this Liquid Gingerbread you speak of?

Its not ready for prime time, but it was fun to play with. I loved the customizations available, and really liked the old school tv off effect when you locked the screen. Unfortunately navigation is sb absolute must have for me, so with that not working, and the market not working, I went back to lfy.

What do you mean by navigation not working?

The market works fine on mine too...

The only thing I noticed was the battery issue, but that usually happens when I throw on a new rom. What I do after a new rom install is run the battery until it turns off, then I power it on again and let it drain till it turns off again. Then give it a full charge. That seems to help the rom relearn the battery life.

Navigation would force close every time I opened it- lots of others have said they ran in to the same. Market would just not open, but no fc, so not sure what was going on with that. Battery was pretty bad too, I had it go from 70% to 20% in about 20 minutes of web browsing.

Same thing happened to me. Wiped everything 3 times, flashed LGB, and let it restore apps, contacts, etc. Went to the market, looks like it will open, the back to home screen. No FC at all. Also, my DSP manager app kept force closing. Same thing with Beautiful Widgets. Really want to use this ROM, but with no market, its a no-go for me.
