[Q] Market server errors?

Both my wife and I (both on Fresh 3.1.0.1) are getting server errors trying to access android market tonight. Anyone else having this problem? Tried rebooting, tried routing through wifi, neither helped.

Just flashed king's kernel 4 and i'm seeing the same market issues.

EDIT: nvm, seems to be the local tower plus market refusing to go thru wifi. Sorry.

Yes. I'm getting it too. What did you mean about the towers and refusing wifi?

Edited OP. 3G here is spotty, so I thought it might be that market refused to go thru wifi for some weird auth-related reason. I wasn't seeing packets going thru the router, at least. But I turned off wifi, verified that I was able to route packets thru 3G, and still no market.

Gotcha. I do hope they fix it soon. There's nothing worse that being bored and wanting to browse apps. It's funny because I normally don't browse much on the app store. Maybe it's my fault

theres a all around problem with the market for the last hour or so i just tested both my Evo and a old Samsung Moment laying around the house and both are having the same problem.(Also my Evo's Rom is the stock rooted 2.2)

I just flashed a new ROM and thought something was bad. Good to know it's not just me.

Same here.

same here fellas!!

It got me too, hopefully it's just some maintenance, although the least they could do would be to post a notice

It seems to be back up. However, I can't find some apps, and it's not showing free apps in the list anywhere near the top when I search (e.g. my wife just searched for "clock" -- she wants a new clock widget). I'm hoping this is a temporary problem.
Actually I'd really like to be able to filter to get just free apps on a search, but, no go on this.

I think they are SLOWLY getting it back up. I don't have top paid tab in my market. Its loading very slow, and a lot of apps are missing. Hopefully it will be sorted out by morning.

Did you turn your 4g on first? You wont get a mac address unless it is on.

I also have the same problem. I went from CM6 to Fresh 3.2; i updated the radio and wimax radio and my 4G is stuck on "scanning" and says MAC address is unavailable

Take your phone to sprint. They will replace them. Just tell them your 4g is not connecting. As of right now I don't believe that there is a fix.

not true, he probably botched up his 4G while flashing somehow. The development section has a few dedicated threads with the necessary steps to fix a bad mac or broken 4G.
Also, the phone will not show a mac address until 4G actually connects

I had this same problem with my phone. I got a new phone, rooted it, and set it up on Fresh 3.1.0.2. Before I rooted my 4g worked fine. After flashing Fresh 3.1.0.2 it stopped. My MAC address still matched, but for some reason I could not get my phone to get passed scanning.
If you turn your 4g on, and let it try scanning you should eventually get a MAC address to show up. At least I did.
What I did to get it working again was I flashed the latest radios, and changed ROM's. I was on Fresh 3.1.0.2 and flashed up to 3.2, and all works well.
Also, make sure you know you are in a 4g area. I thought it was just me at first, but I tried some co-workers 4g and found that I wasn't getting 4g coverage in an area where I thought I had had it before. So just make sure that's not the problem.

4g WiMax Broken
So I live in area with 4g, worked perfect when i got phone, but then I went out of town for a month to area w/o 4g & rooted it, and have since flashed couple of different roms.
Now I'm back in 4g area and it doesn't work, and not sure when in rooting/flashing rom process it stopped working
I used simpleroot, and flashed burntdroid, then couple other roms I didn't like (virus, baked snack, maybe 1-2 others) now back to latest version of burnt. Before each rom flash I cleared all those things in recovery that they said to clear (devlik/user data?/some other stuff). I did flash kernel couple of times in between from one's on this site. I have never flashed a new radio, or wimax.
Did try turning on 4g like someone said, and then it does bring up correct wi-max mac address that matches one under my battery. But 4g does not show up at all on top of screen at all to show that it has connected.
I was going to try those procedures for ppl w/ broken 4g, but I never tried to flash a wimax radio, and my mac address seems to be correct, so not sure if I need to do that. What's wrong?? Should I flash a wimax radio?

ok so looking at some other threads trying to figure this out, looks like I may need to flash new radios.
Have some questions:
In one tutorial it says to flash newest radio BEFORE flashing new custom rom, any issue with me doing it now AFTER I have flashed custom rom?
Do I just take the latest radios from this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 and put them on my sdcard, and boot into recovery and flash em??
Toast had a post saying to do that, but one step says "Reboot to recovery and run .sh or .bat file to gain custom recovery"
Is this just holding vol down and power to get to custom recovery? What is this run .sh or .bat stuff? Also what's the difference between Radio and NV one's listed on that site?

well flashed the newest radio and wimax (not NV cuz still couldn't figure out what exactly that was) and didn't brick anything and wimax mac is stil correct, but still no 4g when im in area that should be getting it!

I ended up wiping the fresh rom and flashed the evio one and now I have blazing fast 4G, maybe the fresh rom just has issues with 4G

Maybe just a clean wipe will do the trick... I flashed the newest ota and wiped everything and my 4g magically started working.

In the market download Wimax key checker to see if you still have your keys

Yeah it sounds like you lost your Wimax key

Or maybe your not in range of 4g or you don't have 4g service. Or possiblity Sprint tower is down. You have to look at those list and if everything fails unroot restore.back to factory setting see if your 4g works if not maybe you need to exchange it for new EVO cause it could be the hardware who knows.

Mattykinsx, steered you right, I followed the procedure in that thread and have since been extremely pleased with my 4g service. Of course as they say "ymmv", but it did work for me.

WiMAX No longer working

OK folks, don't understand what's going on here. All I have done so far is
Rooted with Zedomax v3
flashed stock kernel back on the phone
WiMAX definitely worked when I got the phone, but now I get stuck at "Obtaining IP Address"
Any ideas? Here is a link to my pastebin of WiMAX interface starting up...
http://pastebin.com/RkDYYSAM

The only way to tell what happened is to try a different kernel or rom and see if it works. If all fails go back to stock, if it fails then then you must have lost your wimax keys... and that would suck!

hmm, thought I read that Samsung doesn't have wimax keys in the same way that HTC does. They are embedded in the device and can't be lost. Plus, I make it pass authenticating to the tower, just seems to have problem establishing IP

Odin the eg30 stock rom/kernel that crawlj posted. It should fix it. This is what has been fmdone to fix the wifi and 4g problems.
Sent From My Evo Killer!!!

It looks more like a network problem to me (albeit a convenient one). Since the problem is obtaining an IP, then your wimax radio is having no problems actually getting the signal (otherwise it would hang on connecting) and problems identifying the connection. What I would do, if it were me, would be to flash crawrj's stock tar (the whole stock rom in tar form), factory reset and try again.
If it still hangs after that, then it's the tower and give it a day or two to get it's own panties out of whatever twist they're in.
Sometimes this kinda stuff happens to me too, but it always starts up again eventually

Data Profile not updating??

okay i had perfect 3g connection before i had youtube streaming fast and webpages loading really fast. Now my 3g is no bueno i have connection time outs and slow downloads speeds and buffering is all i get when trying to watch youtube over 3g. So what ive done so far
First i went straight back to stock and factory resetted everything on Gingerbread and did my OTA official updates than did update prl and profile in settings status update but my data connection over 3g is still slow so i did the next thing
##72786# SCRN reset
##3282# (checked all my settings) Device ip says 0.0.0.0 dont know if thats right the other info dont know if thats right either only able to VIEW and EDIT seperate fields one at a time
##MSL#(even put in a new MIEID number from sprint)
then onstart up hands free activation is running sucessfully it updates prl and check for firmware.I then open up sprint zone to chck voice and data both are green however there is a message of an very important profile update available please click here to have full coverage of your data so i click it and i get error cant update profile please try again later.So i keep trying and eventually it updates and says settings have been applied updating content. when i reopen the sprint zone voice and data turn green but the darn profile update for full data services is still there. So i power off pull battery and continue getting same results. The data profile isnt sticking even when it says its been updated. My 3g internet is still slow. Ive also done factory resets from the recovery menu.Sprint even re-pushed my connection off on then pulled battery to see if signal issues were an issue.
so then i do ##rtn# but still the same results. I have tried different modems as well to see if that was the case but no cigar.
Im currently on FH13 ICS 4.0.4 Official stock sprint. the sprint tec support suggest me to go into a store for further troubleshooting cause thats all they can do however i think theres more i can do here just need a little help. I know theres a bunch of more menues i can enter the codes are from this website below. I hope someone can help me with specific correct configurations in the data profile section because this phone doesnt give you the option to reset to default in your data menu just edit and view. Thank you in advanced

Thier wasnt any outage on my network or construction over here either

Don't pay attention to it's a bug in Sprint Zone it always will say there's an update. Update PRL and Profile in Settings and you're good. About speed maybe a network problem in your area it happens to me yesterday PRL Update failing and eventually updated after a few hours also speeds went back I called Sprint and indeed it was a tower problem in my area.
They will tell you there's not outage if no one is reporting. It happens a lot here in PR and when I pass by the tower in Hatillo there are workers on the tower. Lol they know nothing about their own towers.

Leave it to team themers, ugh I mean team devs, to take care of that...

Being that it's Sprint, more than likely it's just their horrible service. If you call them they will probably just give you an excuse like a tower down or something. I have constant issues with their data speeds and signal and this what they always tell me.. .

im using a signal boost app thats from market. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.freshnetwork
and its fixed my youtube streaming over 3g don't know why it takes an app to do whatever its doing for a signal im already supposed to have.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk

but what also is funny is that im using a app called landroid which lets you poke around your network and see information by entering your IP so i did and i got this off a ping......
10 packets transmitted, 0 received, +1 errors, 100% packet loss, time 9007ms
this cant be right though because im using 3g right now to write this post shouldn't i be unable to reach through with these results?
i ran a busybox ifconfig and got the results i should have no packets lossed maybe i entered the ip wrong or its one of those loop traces idk it said ip so thats what i used in landroid regardless still got good 3g any tec want to fill the slots for me please thanks.
