Google Maps is Missing / Google Maps will not install from the market.
This is caused by your phone thinking you have two copies of it installed on your phone. The only people that should be affected by this are some 1.0.0 beta testers. The easy fix is to just do a full data wipe and then reflash the rom.
If you don't want to wipe then you can try the following which may or may not work for you:
adb remount
adb shell
rm /system/app/Maps.apk
pm uninstall com.google.android.apps.maps
mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 dev/block/mtdblock4 system
sync
If that doesn't work... then do a full wipe and reflash.
Why does the alarm clock go off without a way to turn it off?
This means you installed a vanilla lock screen without fully reading the release notes with them. If you are using a vanilla lock screen then you MUST set your alarm in vanilla clock or else you won't be able to turn it off. Read the release notes on each of the 4 different vanilla lock patches to see the differences.
After installing Fresh Rom my phone keeps rebooting / boot looping / saying "Freshhh" over and over.
In every case that I've seen, this has been caused by sd:ext not being wiped properly. Clockwork Recovery isn't doing it right. It appears to but actually errors out. The fastest way to actually wipe it properly would be to reboot in to recovery and re-partition it. This will wipe EVERYTHING off of your sdcard! Do 0/0/Remaining if you want to use apps2sd or 32/1gb/Remaining to use apps2sd. Then wipe everything and re-flash the rom. The alternative option is to install Amon_RA's recovery (there is an FAQ on it) and use that to wipe sd:ext. If it still continues to loop then go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7003602#post7003602
How come I deleted an update/theme from Fresh Updater but it's still on my phone?
Deleting it from Fresh Updater is only removing the downloaded update off of your sdcard. You need to either do a nandroid backup to restore to the previous update, or flash another one that overwrites it. Example: To go from the vanilla lock back to HTC's lock just grab the HTC Lock Screen update from themes.
I installed the vanilla lock screen but decided I want HTC's back. How do I do that?
Just go back in to Fresh Updater and go to themes and there is one for the HTC Lock Screen.
User submitted: Why am i getting android with exclamation triangle after applying any patch from fresh updater?
This appears to be a bug with Clockwork Recovery only. If you use Amon_RA's recovery that can be found here, that won't happen. Fresh Updater uses the standard commands to reboot in to recovery. I honestly can't explain why that happens as that indicates that you do not have a custom recovery installed. The exclamation triangle is what the STOCK recovery looks like.
Why doesn't voice search work?
I have removed it because I was constantly turning it on by accident. You can easily reinstall it by opening ES File Explorer (included in Fresh Rom) and going to /sdcard/fresh-removed-apks/VoiceSearch.apk and it will reinstall for you.
Can the 270 rotation be removed?
Yes, I can put a patch out after all the initial release stuff settles down.
User submitted: How can I contribute and have my theme in the theme update section list?
That's a great question! I don't currently have it setup for other users to be able to submit their own themes. Over the next couple of days I will work on getting that setup, and I'll make a post at that time.
User submitted: How do you install and use Amon's recovery?
I'm not going to answer questions on using his recovery because I have enough going on. :) But you can find his post here which has detailed instructions, and you can ask any questions there. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026

How many times should I hear "Freshhh" on boot?
You should only hear it once on a normal boot; two times on your very first boot. If you are hearing it over and over then check out the FAQ about bootlooping.
Why does the vanilla lock screen unlock when I press the "Menu" button?
This is the normal stock behavior of the vanilla lock screen. I will make a version that doesn't do this and get it posted up.
