Google Books install / upgrade issue

[Guest Ralph Martin]

Ages ago, I installed Google Books directly from an apk onto my phone (GSF ROM, after earlier being on JJ).

Yesterday Google Books was released for the UK.

I tried to update Books via the market, but after downloading, the upgrade failed with a message about the signing being wrong, IIRC.

So I used Titanium to remove Books, then tried to reinstall it. I still got an error.

Finally, I reinstalled my ROM, wiping cache and Dalvik cache, and tried installing Books from the Market.

I now get a message which says Unexpected Error -8.

I guess somehow there is some stale stuff left somewhere from the previous apk.

Does anyone know how I can purge this completely (short of wiping system and data), so I can get Books from the Market?

Google Books is part of GSF b22, if that helps you. I think it was removed in later versions of GSF.

I'm on GSF b27. I don't really see how this helps resolve the problem. Thanks anyway.
