I'm new to Desire and having loaded some apps successfully, I perhaps got too confident and was loading up six when I found it not loading. I stopped loading them and tried loading individually and others but each time had to go in and stop the loading.
So if I now go into Market and try loading one of the Downloads it says "starting download" and gets no further. So I can only cancel it.
Knilly answered my problem which was due to changing from @googlemail to @gmail. Change it back on your PC.
So for the past couple days I've been getting an error message pop up with a notification sound talking about Google Talk Authentication Error and says how it cannot connect and what not. I have made no changes to my phone and now I cant even download anything from the market now. I cant download free apps when i try i get the error "name of the app" could not be downloaded due to an error and when i try to buy apps i get this error saying Error processing purchase. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.
Delete your google account from the phone, then try signing back into it.

It says that I would have to do a factory reset on the phone. I wonder if that will cause it to unroot.
Edit:
Got it fixed did factory reset and put in my google account again and boom all good, thanks for the help
Real solution

After cloning a samsung gio s5660 through a CWM backup I started experiencing the same issue. Heres What REALLY happens.
Google authenticates you in their services trought unique "keys" which are automatically generated upon system installation / factory reset, so if you clone your device or install a rom which has these "keys" pre-installed, obviously, your rom will only autheticate you in google servers if your phone is the only one using the service at that given time... Upon failure, your phone assumes to be the one who's wrong, and google servers won't autheticate you until you either tell your phone he is not wrong (by deleting the data from play store, which resets its status and errors) or you change the "keys". SO, what can we learn from this? deleting the play store data IS a temporary solution, and won't solve a thing. Let's delete the duplicated keys shall we?
Navigate with your favourite folder explorer on your android (I use X-plore, you can tell me anything, there's nothing better) to the following directory:
- "(root)/data/data/com.google.android.gsf"
Now you have two real options, either you may delete the all folder, which was the perfect solution for me, since my rom is prepared to re-create it upon phone restart and new keys will be generated, OR, you might want to just delete the contents of app_sslcache inside com.google.android.gsf whish are THE KEYS I HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS ALL TIME, YEEEIHHHH and reboot your phone...
Needless to say, take a nandroid backup before you do any of this...
Thank me later
For those who remember me from symbian s60v3 phones, yes, it is me, I'm back, and I've moved to the droid world, it's much better indeed
Hi folks,
I'm trying to keep my Fairphone free of googleApps (because, you know, $reasons), but as usual it's not that easy.
I am struggeling to get NoGApps working. First of all: kudos to @MaR-V-iN - I don't have a paypal account, but I could invite you for a Kölsch next time I'm in the area.
Can anybody review my steps and possibly describe how to get it running properly?
0. installed OI File Manager (to be able to access the internal partition)
1.1. downloaded μg v1.3.2 (NetworkLocation.apg)
1.2. ( tried to copy to /system/app/NetworkLocation.apk - to no avail: "... could not be copied")
1.3. installed NetworkLocation, allowed access in XPrivacy popup, rebooted.
1.4. downloaded cells-world.db, renamed to cells.db, moved it to /sdcard/.nogapps/cells.db
1.5 tried to find any sign of the application. (Found nothing.)
Sadly, Network location does not show up, anywhere. Am I looking in the wrong places?
2.1. downloaded Blank Store 0.6.6 (BlankStore.apk)
2.2. (renamed it to com.android.vending.apk, tried to copy it to /system/app/com.android.vending.apk - no success.)
2.3. renamed again, installed BlankStore.apk, allowed access in XPrivacy popups, rebooted.
2.4. downloaded android-checkin-1.0.jar and bla.bat, copied them to the location of java.exe, generated an android ID.
2.5. went to menu [Settings]{Accounts}
2.5.1 entered (dedicated...) google credentials and android ID,
2.5.2 entered slightly changed credentials that @DSoundso mentioned (SDK should be 17, I think. I also used a German carrier's MCC-MNC).
2.5.3 rebooted.
2.6 opened BlankStore: yay, I can search it. But I can't install any app: it crashes constantly.
I should mention that the Account settings were gone several times, so the BlankStore would close immediately. I had to re-enter them, and tried also exactly the credentials @DSoundso mentioned in the NOGAPPS thread.
I can't "sync" the account under [Settings]{Accounts}{Sync}. It just "says Sync is OFF", "sync now" does not seem to work.
I logged into the google account on a desktop PC, and no devices show up. ("No active devices").
So, the next steps are unfinished:
3.1. downloaded Maps API v1 (nogapps-maps.zip)
3.2. tried to download via Blank store: BusyBox, TWRP, TitaniumBackup. (BlankStore crashes.)
...to be continued?
Can anybody walk me through?
Or at least single out any errors I made above?
Hey, did you have a look at the XDA-Wiki section about installing the Blank Store? Following this step-by-step should hopefully install the Blank Store
I am too avoiding the Google Apps and also installed the maps successfully (didn't try NetworkLocation yet) and your problems with "could not be copied" sound like a problem with the user rights.. I'm not sure how your file manager works but the with the Android SDK (see above link) and the right commands it should work.
As far as the crashes of the Blank Store are concerned: at first mine also didn't start and crashed, which was caused by the missing Store account but as it sounds yours IS starting but then not really functioning, right? :|

Thanks, I gave that a try yesterday. 1.7 gb download, what a mess... But solved the problem: it was a rights issue. I was under the impression that the OI File Manager had superuser rights. I was wrong. Got BlankStore working now, but it crashes still quite often on download.
I'm still not sure what to make of it. As I said, it *seemd* to be working before as well, but *no* download was finished. Now, *some* finish their dl, and if they don't I get an error notification (was missing before).
However, whenever I try to load a paid app, the BankStore crashes instantly.
I tried to read the whole NOGAPPS thread and realised: it only works for free apps. And I already redeemed a gift card at the Play Store to buy a paid Titanium Backup version. ****e, I'm stupid. :silly:
Still, it would be nice if it would not crash, or at least tell me it would crash when trying to load a paid app.
Also, I still can't see any active device when logging into the account on the web. Any ideas there? Is that supposed to be like this?
(Funny enough, I *can* see which apps I downloaded through BlankStore.)

It seems both are not working properly for me. OSMAnd can find it's position by GPS. Offi is working, but can not find a location (GPS turned on). Also in Offi Stations, 'Acquiring location' never gets finished. The map stays blank in landscape mode. I would very much appreciate it if you would report your status here: if you can get it to work, how - and if not, what $reasons do you assume?
The permissions are not the problem. /system has to be mounted writable.

permissions for Offi / Maps Api access?

Thanks for pointing that out, @elchi1234. I'm not used to work on linux-like systems, but I'm eager to learn.
However, I assume this could have something to do with permissions:

I tried to figure out why Offi is not showing any map. It seems like it's trying to DL / access map tiles and not getting access, which sometimes even causes crashes:
Code:
W/MapsAPI ( 5201): MapTileDownloader: Problem downloading MapTile: /17/65535/65535 HTTP response: HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
According to the crash report, this happens with every tile the app is trying to access.
Did I mess up somehere?
Nice to hear that the Blank Store is now working for you.
Hm, that problem with Öffi sounds familiar to me - I seem to recall that I had these problems too.. since you could install those Apps it looks like your installation of the map files was succesful. I think you should try the GPS fix mentioned here. It really helps A LOT (or did you already do that..?)
Report back!
Well, the MapsAPI seems to be installed correctly. (It was never working for me, too. I use it for that apps that require it but don't really need it.)
I would guess that there is a change in the API of the webserver that MapsAPI doesn't know about.
A couple hours ago, the AFTV wouldn't play any Prime video and would just hang on the Netflix screen with the loading icon. Fairly certain it was on 51.1.1.0_user_511070220. Definitely 51.1.1.0. This was rooted with updates turned off using the adbFire app and a few Amazon URLs blocked in my router's access restrictions. After rebooting the AFTV a couple times, I read that a lot of solutions online were to delete the Prime/Netflix apps' data/cache. That didn't fix it. So then I followed the next common step and deauthorized the account. This is where the AFTV starting going crazy. After putting the user/pass back in, it started very quickly flashing between the "Authorizing Your Device" screen and the "Could not connect screen." A lot of button mashing broke the loop but every time I entered the user/pass, the loop would begin again. Hard and soft rebooting had no effect. Turning off the router (running AdvancedTomato) access restriction didn't help. I even used adbFire to very temporarily re-enable updates. Still no access.
I figured that this was a sign I should protect my root better. It may have been a mistake, but I decided to try and install Clockwork recovery. I left the "pm disable com.amazon.dcp" from adbFire enabled. So Amazon updates were still blocked. I downgraded to 51.1.0.2_user_510058520 kinda not realizing that this would kill my root and maybe also not realizing that Clockwork would need root to install.
I now have the same exact problem as before. I am stuck on the registration page and cannot sign in. It either says that the "sign in failed" or that the "connection was lost." At least on this earlier firmware, it doesn't seem to get stuck on the flashing loop between those two screens. There is some new weirdness where it seems to be pressing buttons on its own somehow. The text entry menu will disappear as if I closed it. And then when I select it again, it's in a broken format with all the keyboard buttons there, but the input field names missing.
I have verified that the current firmware is 51.1.0.2_user_510058520 with "grep fingerprint /system/build.prop".
I am 99% sure that nothing else from amazon is blocked besides "pm disable com.amazon.dcp", which I'm now unable to turn on again as I don't have root. adbFire says that "Amazon updates are off". I thought that this was reset by a downgrade? I can't think of anything else to check. I used to use dnsmasq to block three Amazon URLs before I found AdvancedTomato's Access Restriction but dnsmasq is empty and the rule in Access Restriction is deleted.
I am 99% sure I never edited my AFTV's hosts file. I just did "adb pull /system/etc/hosts" and all it has in it is "127.0.0.1 localhost".
Is there anything else I should check?
Just tried it again this morning. After every "sign in failed," if I let it sit on the failed screen with the keyboard where it wants me to enter user/pass again and touch nothing for 5-10 seconds, it will suddenly close that keyboard pop up and then immediately reopen it -- except it will be broken in that it's missing all the labels for fields like "Enter email here".

If you have Amazon.dcp disabled then remove all the blocked sites from the router and boot it up and see if you get connected. Maybe a site you have blocked is the issue

I don't know where the router block could be. The rule in Access Restrictions is deleted and the Dnsmasq field is empty. I'm going to try using a cell phone hot spot to register it. Probably won't change anything but I can at least rule out the router as a problem.
As soon as I was able to get powershell moved over and tested, my first thought was to see if WinRM (Windows Remote Management or PSSessions) was functional. I was greeted with the cryptic message that "WinRM command line is not available on this system". rpcss and http are required services for WinRM startup, so I have created startup entries for both. Sadly rpcss wants lanmanserver and lanmanworkstation started, and I am unable to start either due to permissions, but these services appear to have startup entries already. Anyone else working on this and interested in swapping notes?
