“Size mismatch” error

February 4th, 2010

Those of you trying to download GV Mobile + from Cydia may be getting this error. I’m working with Kyle @ ModMyI and Jay @ Cydia to get this issue resolved. Sorry for the troubles!

    This version doesnt prompt me to update… but rather to install. What are the changes in this version. I assume I need to uninstall my old version and install this version? I guess i should wait to do that until this error is resolved.

    Mike N – how long did it take you to get your invites? I got a google voice number around Xmas and haven’t got any to give out yet. My wife needs one and I had hoped my three invites would be released to me by now.

    Sean, one thing which would make a huge difference for me is if the offline dialing could accomodate the “+” in front the numbers (example: +1818XXXXXXX). I make lots of international calls so all of the numbers in my Google Contacts are formatted as such. The offline dialing is a huge advantage to GVMobile+ for me, but going through and changing the 700+ of my contact numbers would be an arduous task.

    You don’t need the plus sign when dialing outside US.

    Sean,
    I just upgraded to GV+. One feature request is that the Contacts list in the app does not seem to include any Business contacts– those that just have a company and no first/last name. I have many Businesses which show up in my normal contacts list, but not in the GV+ app. Can you update the app to include those?
    Thanks,

    sean, I got the app yesterday and it works beautifully. I adore the offline feature. I don’t mind the brief waiting period at all. Thank you.

    Will you make a version of this app for Android? Please.

    Sean,
    Love your app, I put it to very good use. I have a problem when I use the offline dialing, it does not work properly. I have done it manually and it works fine. Here’s what happens when I use the offline dialing from GV Mobile+. It dials my number, then”,” which I assume is a pause, then my pin. There’s no * before my pin. When I dial manually when I do not have 3G service, I dial as followed:
    1) GV#
    2)*PIN
    3)2
    4)Tel# of the person.
    How can we resolve this issue? All we have to do is add * before my pin.

    you don’t need the * before the pin.

    @Ole
    I tried it again, it will dial out. But it does not recognize the comma, it will leave me a message. On the message I can hear the buttons being pressed with the telephone number that I wanted to dial.
    Do i have to set up a default area code?

    It sounds strange. I am only using the offline dialing service and it works like a charm. I don’t have a data plan on my phone so it is the only way I can dial using the address book without having to write down the number and then dial everything manually.

    Did you set it up that it will call your GV number?

    @Ole
    Thanks for getting back to me. What do you mean about the default settings? Do you mean the offline dialing settings. Then no, I do not know how to. I went into the forum and poseted the problem. Thanks so much again for your help.

    I bought the new gv mobile+ and was unsuccessful in installing (size mismatch). I tried going back to the free gvmobile and It’s giving me the same size mismatch error. When I checked my old 2G (running same unlocked 3.0), and it installed the free one without an issue. I also noted it was v1.5, but on my 3GS, its version 1.22.1. Can someone help me get this resolved? Miss the app already!

    i’m trying to update to the latest (2.1.50? 2.1.60?) and get the “Size mismatch” error message.

    any news on a fix for this?

    Solution to ’size mismatch’ error:

    http://www.7hertz.com/archives/2010/07/cydia_size_mismatch_issue.html

    you can shell to the command prompt and try to fix it.
    - su root
    - apt-get update

    [if you see errors, it's probably in /var/lib/apt/lists]

    i ran the apt-update command a couple of times, then went to cydia and reloaded any out-of-date apps. appeared to me this command alone cleared out the stuck downloads. the original recipe continued:

    - apt-cache policy cydia
    [if you see errors, it's probably same as above]

    - cd /var/lib/apt/lists
    - rm *

    [if something is in "partial" directory, go there and rm * that too. when
    done, do: apt-get update]

    - cd /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
    - rm *
    - apt-get update
