CM6- cannot install apps- causes a reboot!

[Guest RavemasterX]

Hi all, I've got a very odd problem here. I've given my Pulse to my wife now I've got a SF; I upgraded it to Tom's CM6 0.3 before I gave it to her and installed TouchPal and LauncherPro so it was nice and usable. But eventually it started failing to install any apps- they would DL from the Market fine but then fail to install.

So today I had a bit of time and decided to reformat the 4GB Kingston class 4 card I have in it, wipe everything on the phone, and start again from scratch. This worked fine, I managed to install Astro File Manager and a few other apps. Then I used Astro to try and install TouchPal having copied the .apk out of another ROM- a few seconds later the phone froze, and they went straight to the Cyanogen whirly android boot up screen. I tried installing another app from the market- exact same result.

So then I went into clockwork mod and formatted basically everything I could get at except the boot partition. I (very slowly) formatted the SD card (apart from the 64mb swap partition that I put on there) using a card reader on my PC. Then I reinstalled CM6 and the google apps zip- and then installing any app at all failed with the same error.

So I'm a bit stuck really. Any ideas?

I had a similar problem when I installed CM6 with the gapps-pulse-20101020, everytime I downloaded an app it would then reboot when it came to the installing the app. So I used the gapps-mdpi-tiny-20100930 instead and this has solved this problem.

Perhaps this might do the trick.
