Hi
I got the message informing me the upgrade is available, i downloaded the file. When i tried to install it, i got a message telling me i need to have at least 25mb phone memory, i uninstalled some apps and got the memory up to 45mb but it still wouldn't update. I rebooted my phone and now i don't know how to install the update, i can see the file in my downloads but i don't know how to got about installing it. I tried to check for software updates but it keeps telling me my i'm up to date, however my firmware is 2.1. How do i get the update installer to come up again? Is anybody having the same problem? Any solutions?
Thanks in advance
Can you still see it in your downloads? Then just press it, that started it for me.
(be sure that you have a goldcard inserted if you have a debranded phone)
I can see it in my downloads through my file manager, but when i click it i just i see more files, is there anywhere else to access the downloads, i tried through the web browser but i can't see it.
By debranded phone do you mean sim free
Thanx in advance
With debranded I mean you used to have, for example t-mobile (or whatever provider you have) splash screen when booting up instead of htc. or that you had some programme's preinstalled by your provided on phone. And now have gotten rid of all that stuff by installing a clean htc rom.
As to how to get the update working, I don't know.
I solved the problem, i stopped hello fota and downloaded the update again.
Thanx a lot for your help Flaggie

I have just picked up my new Orange HTC desire (very nice it is too, apart from the Orange stuff that comes with it).
The problem I am having is that I am now unable to download any more applications form the Andriod marketplace. I was able to do this until the other day.
I found this (android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile-pulse-pulse-modaco-com/304562/download-unsuccessful/)forum which basically says that you need the gtalk service running.
I had disabled this the other day whilst messing around and I couldn't work out how to re-enable this. (Possibly due to the ORange branding stuff, not sure).
I found a link to the gtalk.apk in one of these forums, downloaded it and installed that. That got the gtalk service running again. however I am still unable to download apps from the market place, this is very annoying.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
try clearing the cache from the settings menu / applications / manage applications / download manager and then reboot your handset. This worked for me earlier in the week.
Thanks for the tip, I tried it but still no luck, any more ideas anybody?
Cheers
EVO APP store
yeah, after updates, rooting, froyo.. etc..
i couldn't download apps as well.
Logged into GTalk and app downloads started working.

i dont think you need gtalk running to download from the market, im sure i have removed that app b4 and had no problems i can remember, what is the error you are getting? you have give us no info? is the download failing or the instalation? many problems with the market can be solved by going to settings/application/manage applictions, find market under the all tab, click on it then click on clear data, reboot your fone and try again ....
Hi guys I rooted my desire using the live cd method, powered up my phone before installing a2sd and I could see all of my download history on the market with access to all apps. After this I booted into recovery using step2 on the live cd and installed A2SD. When I turned the phone on again all of the download history was gone and I can't see apps like Google Earth, National Rail etc.
I thought I did something wrong so I wiped the device and installed the rooted rom update again with a2sd at the same time. The problem still exists and nothing has changed.
Could you please help me because this is very annoying and I cant set up my phone the I want until this is resolved.
Very strange... Use Market enabler > http://market-enabler.googlecode.com/files/MarketEnabler_latest.html
install, apply new settings and reboot, problem solved
Thanks for the suggestion but the market enabler doesn't solve it, I tried it.
Another strange thing that I found is I have an .apk of CoPilot which I was using before rooting and when I tried installing it now it gives me an error "Application not installed".
I still haven't solved this problem and its really bugging me.
I un-rooted my phone and used a different google account with no luck. I still don't see some applications in the market.
Just to let you know I am in the UK using a generic sim free desire on 3 network. Could you please, please, please help me out. I am running out of options and I thought unrooting would fix it.
Weird issue you are describing. As far as I know it depends on the fingerprint of the build.prop in the ROM (and if Google added it to the white list(?)) or not.
Many people are using the rooted ROM (all the same build.prop) and they can access protected apps just fine. So probably the problem lies elsewhere.
I have a similar problem, before I rooted my device I could see all apps I bought in my g1 days. After I rooted first of all none showed up, after a day or so only a few showed up... rebooted a few more times (only ever flashed once using Windows with apps2sd) now I have a few I had before show up not all just a few and thats how its been since. weird. I had half results :/

Same problem here with one single application.
Had SlideIT paid version installed on stock firmware.
Once i rooted it gave me the message "application not installed" once i tried to install it.
Funny enough the SlideIT lite version is still able to install fine.
Definitely want it to work again, so i hope someone knows how to fix it
I tried a couple of different ROMs today and had this same problem, clicking My Downloads would just show a blank screen, and there was no "Top Paid Apps" tab. I tried unrooting, rerooting, nothing fixed it, until I found this;
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=1ea082d443f3d16c&hl=en
Pushing that xml file (note the spelling mistake before you do it) fixed it all back up, no idea what caused it to get all messed up and why it wasn't fixed by wiping and reflashing.

I tried to push the file via adb shell in windows and got permission denied. Am I doing it right or do I need to root the phone again to be able to push that file because I have reverted back to the generic stock rom?
Mine was rooted when I pushed it, try re-rooting it and pushing it again I guess.
I finally got around to re-rooting it and tried your solution with pushing that file but no change to my market
Just to be clear I can see the Top Paid apps tab, but I cant access copy protected apps like Google Earth.
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.

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.
Hey guys:
Unlocking and rooting my HTC Wildfire was the second most frustrating experience of my life. However, it's finally over and I flashed CM 10 onto my phone along with 4.1.2 GApps signed (I followed this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1878031&highlight=unlocked+bootloader+but+s-on).
Everything seemed to go well, except the Google Play Store doesn't work. It keeps giving me the "Error retrieving information from server. [RH-01]" message. I've also noted that Google Services Framework is NOT installed on my phone. I should note that I have 0 apps installed, meaning I do not have a file manager and there is no file manager/explorer that comes stock as far as I'm aware.
I've looked all over the internet and everything tells me to erase the cache because corrupted data seems to be the most common cause of this error message. This is obviously not the case with my phone. What do I need to do to get this thing to work? I've reflashed the GApps and even flashed a different one. I've tried manually downloading and installing Google Services Framework but it won't install. I've tried moving files around on my SD card (the only thing I can access from my computer) and nothing has worked.
I'm just about at my wit's end here guys. Please help me!
PS. I have a clockworkmod back-up from before my phone was rooted saved onto my computer. However it doesn't have my apps in it so I don't think I can get a file manager from it.
**FIXED**
I feel like an idiot, but the reason it wasn't working was because the CM 10 mod I was trying to install failed to install :S I wrote the warning sign off as something else and didn't read the message it sent me I guess.
ANYWAY I found a fix here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136011 use the SLIMCM-10 ROM instead and that's what fixed if for me (use all the other downloads he has there too, except for the regular CM10 mod). Thanks for the help that I received, and sorry for being a n00b. Love this community BTW, you guys are the best!
This happened to me the first time I flashed icu's marvelc port of paranoid android...I fixed it by wiping everything and just reflashing the whole rom and gapps. Try that. Tell me if it works.
