Apps will not install/update anymore - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to install and update apps from appbrain/market and they will not install or even update. It says starting download and it just sits there. This started yesterday morning and I haven't been able to figure out why it won't download anything at all.
I'm running Fresh 0.3 and even reflashed (w/o deleting data/cache), but that dind't help either.
Any idea why this is occuring?

[Q] Phone not stable after update

I've been rooted since 2.2. I can DL the OTA update but when I try to install, it starts but then i'm stuck on the yellow ! screen. I've tried to update via the de-ox file here without wiping and get a boot loop. I tried a fresh install of the ox version and whenever I try to install anything (market or sprint updates) my phone automatically reboots. I did a fresh install of the de-ox and when I restore my apps, I run out of space. So is the update glitched or borked for some phones? I've gone back to my backup I made before the update and everything is fine.

[Q] Unable to download apps from the market

Hi,
since I've rooted my phone and went for DeFrost/OpenDesire I'm unable to download any apps from the market. I've set the installation source to internal memory. I've tried to re-install the ROM, cleaning, wiping data/cache and basically everything around that. I'm even unable to download Apps with the original 2.2 unrooted STOCK rom now.
Any ideas?
What I did so far:
- Wiping the phone
- Formating the SD card
- Basically everything to default
- Installed FroYo 2.2.1 Pre-Rooted
And still I cant download apps from the market.
Please I am begging for ideas
try clearing market's data in "application" section of "settings"
does your problem include free apps? or paid only?
Hi,
did that.
Applies for paid and free apps
Apps Install Problem
Hi,
I've got kinda the same problem.
Got root phone with custom ROM (Neophyte) and download apps form market is fine but after they don't install and I still have the installing process running but nothings happens.
I've try to change ROM but in Cyamogen I don't even see the Android Market.
I have partitioned the SD card with Rom Manager to get APP2SD but I d'ont know if this is working. How to check?
Someone can help? Which ROM should I use to test if the market is Ok?
Can I put a HTC rom into my rooted phone?
I do have the feeling that my phone is not allowed to place the files somewhere it would need to. Does anyone know where files from the market are being placed when the download starts?
Update:
I found a solution. I need to disable the SD card and them I'm able to download files again. So I guess its some kind of app2sd problem?
And with defrost its not working anylonger.
GOD DAMNIT. This is driving me crazy
So even with a ext3 partition I'm unable to download these Apps. I've tried repair mode from ROM manager and he successful fixed everything - without a result.
If anyone has an idea please tell me. I'm unable to use my phone this way and I don't have any idea at this point. I just revoked everything going back to an unrooted HTC Desire EU 2.2 rom.
Its still not working. I dont get this.
SD card was formated, Phone was wiped - its in the same state as yesterday before I rooted it. So how the heck is it not working anymore?! Cant be its kinda hardware bricked or something ... ffs
PLEASE
I have the same problem. After creating the partion in rom manager I am unable to DOWNLOAD apps for the market but I can still install apk's from the memory card.
SOLUTION!!!
The solution is quite simple actually. Tried it on HTC Tattoo
Go to Settings>Applications>Managae Applications>Market and uninstall all the updates for Market and clear cache. Try Downloading Apps from Market.
Cheers!

Unable to download Apps on Market after I unlocked my Tmobile Vibrant
I'm also having the same problem after I unlocked my Tmobile vibrant.
If i reset my phone and go to apps market, Im able to download fine, but after closing apps market and opening it again and try downloading any apps, nothing happens. It says its "starting download" but nothing happens. It seems to be stuck at that "starting download" process. But if I reset my phone and go back to the Apps market and try downloading apps and everything will work temporary.
I tried going into settings---->applications----> manage applications----> clear cache---->reboot
Also tried going to Download Manager-Clear Data----Reboot
Also tried uninstalling updates for Apps Market.
Nothing helps.
Please help if you find a way to fix this problem.

[Q] Market down?

What's going on with the market? I literally downloaded ClockworkMod about 15 minutes ago and tried flashing something, the file wasn't there so I didn't end up flashing, turned the phone back on and the market just will NOT download. Has it gone down?
Also just quickly, if I flash RUU 1.32 or whatever it's called, will I lose root?

You will lose root, yes
And market is working fine for me
Obivously something I've done along the way, http://zantekk.de/~desire_hd/offici....140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed.exe this is the latest version we have root for, correct?
I just installed Android RevolutionHD 2.0.15 (and after a reboot 2.0.16) for the first time and trying to get my apps on the phone through the market and it seems that i have the same problem:
If i want to download any app with any connection it tries to start and soon it sais "unable to download... plz try later blabla"
Was wondering if the problem was related to the Custom Mod AR HD because someone in the mods thread had the same problem. But when you're saying you're on stock rom i think something is going on here^^
[e] Now its working again. Seems it was related with the store and not the rom.
I did correct permissions through Rom Manager (installed with apk) though im not sure if it is related to the market now working again.

[Q] Google Playstore Broke?

Good morning! Alright. So. All I've done to my phone was Root it and get Xposed on it. Everything was completely fine until last night. Now, whenever I try to download anything from the Playstore, it just gets stuck on "Downloading". I've tried wiping its cache, its data, force closing it, reinstalling the update. Nothing seems to solve this issue. I was wondering if anyone else has run into this issue on this phone, and how they resolved it? I can't even update my applications, and I didn't even get a chance to Update my Phone, but now when I try to Scan for Updates, it just gets stuck searching :/
This happened to me at first. What worked for me for a couple days was to toggle airplane mode. Then, it started getting stuck again. So, I downloaded Beans GAPPS, and extracted Google Play services and Play Store.apk, and that seems to be working. Keep in mind, that not everything is going to work smoothly. If none of this works, look for the .apk and move it to your device and install it that way. Hope that helps, bud.
I tried Googling Beans GApps, but it seems like they haven't been updated in about a year. Or am I looking in the wrong places?
This has also been my problem since getting a pixel 2 xl almost a month ago. In fact, I wanted to make a thread about my issue earlier but I'm just too lazy! The only thing I did at first was to unlock the bootloader.
Now, I am completely stock without even root but my playstore downloads are stuck in "downloading" and usually the download starts after being stuck in this phase with about 15-30 minutes delay (which could even be hours before my download is finally started, so it's random). The funny thing is playstore lists my device certification status as "uncertified" in the settings. I have tried clearing cache+data of play services+play store+removing/adding my Google account. I also did a fresh and clean install of the May security update rom but all to no avail. I remember reading in another thread that Google may impose a 7 day lock or something for your Google account in these instances so at this point I am just waiting it out (only 3-4 more days remaining) to see if my problem goes away by itself, otherwise, I am pretty clueless as to what I should do next.

Can't install any apk, update from play store, or install from play store

Out of nowhere I can't install or update anything on my G8 anymore. I figured it had to do with a magisk module so I disabled each and every module except for lsposed through zygisk, to no avail. My next step was to disable all of magisk clear all the data/cache on play store, play services, package manager, and download manager. That still didn't work. So I factory reset losing magisk altogether, still nothing. So I hard reset through recovery still nothing. I also repeated clearing cache/data after the resets. Has anyone else came across a problem like this and has a solution? Sometimes the error when installing an app is package not installed as it appears to be invalid. Yes, I am sure I downloaded the right apk. In the play store it will download to 100% and as soon as the install starts it just like resets like I never hit install. And on updates it will download 100% then stop on the update and it says couldn't update. I'm pulling my hair out here.
On a side note I had to drop twrp last week do to it being stuck on the twrp splash screen then restarting to twrp and doing the whole thing over again. Eventually I couldn't even boot into three os so I refreshed my original boot.bin that I patched with magisk previously
Edit
I installed aptoide and when trying to install am app out said I stl had root permission. And when trying to clear cache through recovery it throws an error art me. Nothing specific just says error. I guess next time I'm at my pc I'll reflash my boot files through qfil and try a factory reset afterwards.
Edit 2***
I was able to install the gta v ifruit app from apkmirror so my little niece could play with chop but even though it installed, when I open the app it says downloading application data failed. Anybody have a clue on wth is going on with my phone. I haven't restored factory yet because I'm kind off curious as to what is causing this problem. I was able to randomly install an app from the play store today after a data clear and restart. I'm thinking I true wipe/format isn't possible without twrp because this factory recovery isn't cutting it.
