No Wifi Tethering after Fresh rom.

I opened the app and set my SSID and Passphrase. When I hit connect I get this force close message every time. Any ideas?

You have to uninstall it and then reinstall it from the google code website. I can't post links but google "wireless tether google code"

i tried that and it still wont work

Strange, uninstall/reinstall worked for me. I installed the one from the market, I'm sure it's the same as the one from the google code page though.

I'll try it hopefully it works.

I had this issue and I realized that I accidentally forgot to turn off the wifi in settings. It sounds ridiculous, I know, but just in case.

I uninstalled it and re-installed the apk from the google code website and it works now. Thanks.

Market hung on "starting download"

I have been searching for the past couple hours and haven't turned up a fix. A lot of people have suggested reflashing gapps and I'd love to do that but I can't find the apk or zip for it anywhere. Does anyone have a dl link for it? Or perhaps another solution?

Happened to me before. The market heals itself with time.

Try cancelling and re-starting the download. If that doesn't work, open up Settings>Applications>Manage Applications, find Market, Force Close it, then re-open and re-install the updated app. Works for me every time.

Done that 20 times already. I've also wiped and reflashed twice too.
I found the gapps zip and flashed it, of course that didn't work. I just noticed that I can't sign in to google talk either. Everthing I've read says that the market is heavily dependent on gtalk.
I am extremely frustrated and want to throw my evo through my damn window.

try opening Talk and letting that sign in, then restart your download and see if it works. If it still doesn't sign talk out and then back in and try again.
Works for me every time, I think there is a glitch that both apps must be logged on to work

Nope. I can't sign in to Talk.

By chance did you recently change your WiFi access point setup? Or recently attach to it? Your WiFi / router may be firewalling your outbound access. I figured this out after a lot of time banging my head with the same problem.
Even more bizzare was that once connection attempts occurred on my WiFi, just shutting off the WiFi did not resolve like I thought it would. I figured it would go to the 3G to continue... but you actually would have to power down the phone (battery out) to get it going.
Ultimately, I had to open up my port access (outbound) for my phone.

Go into settings. Force close market under running programs. Clear data. Open market. Fixed

Maybe for most people... but when I had this problem, that wasn't the cure. Although I suggest he start with your suggestion... if that doesn't fix, he needs to look deeper into what I mentioned to him.

In a shocking turn of events, now it is working again. I didn't even do anything, I just looked at it and it was downloading all the apps that I had tried and failed to download last night. New downloads are working too.
Weird.

If you can fix that your market should work too, have you tried reinstalling GAPPS? It can be found in the Cyanogenmod ROM thread.

Market problems?

Alright I have no clue what's going on here... My market isn't opening at all, it's not even force closing, it just automatically closes. Here's the scary thing, this even happens after flashing a recovery that's known to work fine. I have reinstalled gapps, I've wiped data via TB, I have tried everything I can think of to fix this and the market still closes. I have no clue what to do. Help? TIA
And I just tried going to market.android.com to see if that works and it now says I don't have any phones connected to my account (this feature has worked fine before)

This happened to me last night. It happened to me after I did a full wipe and flash of build 35, so I nandroided back and did a nowipe flash of build 35, and it oddly worked fine. Try using an earlier build, I would say 33/34 and before.

Alright, I'll try that tomorrow (currently studying for an insane strength of materials exam) and see if it works. BTW, this happened shortly after I flashed the latest CM nightly. Shortly after (about 10 minutes) two things happened: I got an error saying google talk couldn't be authenticated and then the market wouldn't open (although I downloaded and installed a few things before that with the same rom).

I hadn't tried google talk when I had the issue so I don't know. Do you by any chance have custom mtd partitions, say, with a 1.5 mb /cache?

Nope, stock partitions

Hmm. Some market issues were caused by a practically nonexistent cache partition. It's probably just a bug, I would try earlier builds or restoring a nandroid or something. It'll get resolved before it's released as a release candidate I'm sure.

Well here's the thing, right now I'm on build 23 which has been very stable for me. This problem happened on build 37 and then I nandroided back to this backup and its doing the same thing. I'm going to try to flash without wiping data and see if that works

That's incredibly strange. Maybe it's something going on with google's systems. Try flashing cm6.1.1 stable and see if the market works there, then wipe and flash build 23 again and see if it does it. If it still does it, check to see if the market auto updated, go to settings>applications>manage applications>all apps tab, scroll to market, and see if there are updates to it. If so, press uninstall updates. I read about a week ago that the market had an update that broke functionality, but it was only supposed to affect 1.6 devices, not 2.1+. Weird.

FIXED! Here's what I did:
Full wipe
Reflashed build 37
signed in as [email protected]!!! I was lazy and only put my username, which was not linked to the market, so it had no clue what to do when I tried signing in to the market. That was all. Just an FYI to fix this you MUST run the start procedure again, that's the only way to fix this.
What a pain in the butt...

Nevermind, I restarted and it came back... weird. It might have to do with TB, actually, because it didn't happen until I restored my TB backup... Looks like I'm going to have to start over in the world of android.. oh well

Yeah it's not a big deal, as long as I can still download apps and use chrome-to-phone I'm good (oh and gmail... geez if that was down I don't know what I'd do, lol). Thanks for your help regardless!

Chrome to phone hasn't worked for me since cm6 :/
In fact, I'm experiencing battery drain and the broken download manager is beginning to get to me so I MAY go back to cm6 for a few days but it's just so irresistible to stay on cm7 with the added features and such. Plus I don't feel like redoing my settings.

Nexus Prime - Market download problem!

Hi all,
I got my Nexus Prime today. I'm quite impressed, but it has a problem that's driving me mad.
When I first turned on my handset and entered my Google username it tried to download all the old apps from my previous Android handsets - I didn't ask it to nor did I want it to! Anyway, this failed part way through and none of the apps actually installed.
Since owning this device a few hours ago I cannot install anything through the Android market at all. I keep getting told that the download failed due to an error, but nothing further.
I've tried rebooting the handset but nothing appears to be able to be downloaded.
I can download from other sources, for example I downloaded the Swype installer and that installed fine, from the Swype website (Swype states it's not compatible with this handset!)
I'm not sure if this is a general bug or if there's something wrong with my individual handset but it would be interesting to see if anyone else has this problem?

Hi I had this problem too, unfortunately clearing cache and data from Market doesn't do anything (at least for me), I had to do a factory reset, worked for me and my friend who also had the same problem.

Damn, after an evening of customising my handset I was hoping not to have to do that.
So it appears we've discovered an issue with this handset.

Yep, that fixed it.
Annoying though..............

The way to avoid that is by skipping the initial guide and then att your account in settings instead. I agree that they should just ask you instead but the above way has worked ever since that feature was intruduced in 2.2.

Sorry for the bump but I'm having the exact same issue.
Just rooted the phone and after all apps were restored I tried downloading apps and keep getting that error.
I already did a factory reset several times and nothing. Just tried skipping the setup and adding my google accounts later but I'm still getting the same error :X
Anyone has any idea how to fix this problem? Do I have to return my phone?
It's been driving me crazy..

there's a Nexus Prime?

I seem to have managed to fix this now. I popped my sim into my old android phone, I noticed that the apn settings being used on old phone are different to those GN has setup by default for my network provider. I just copied those through to the new phone and market works again . Hope this helps someone.

Having the same issue also. I'm on Telus in Canada and the APN settings are the same on my old phone. I have done a factory reset and am still having this issue. Please help!

Are you guys rooted? If you are it could be the ROM your using?

Or just let it restore, and wait. It can take hours, let it do its thing. By tomorrow will be working again.

You are right. It's the weirdest problem I've seen but somehow it just fixed itself.. Apps install fine now (too bad I didn't know that before doing a million factory resets and deleting my settings)

Figured it out. I had to clear the proxy address in my apn settings

seems my Service Provider's settings where blocking downloads esp the Proxy... hmmmm

I've had this problem since yesterday, Market wont download over wifi or data network, messages 'Error while processing payment' or '... could not be downloaded due to error'
I'm running a stock GSM nexus and have tried clearing the market data and rebooting but no luck, I'd rather not have to do a factory reset if I can avoid it.
Any ideas anyone?

Easy fast simple solution when this occurs and usually after an update. Just uninstall the app completely and then go back to google play store and redownload the app.
Have a great day!

I have been tried all the way ( clear, uninstall update etc) but still error... I tried to install other program 'tubemate' still cant connect /play the video, but when i download the video first and play later is no problem..
Maybe something wrong with my data package on my carrier??? Hmmm..
Thanks for all advise...

Again though, thanks again!!!!
:good::good::good::good::good::laugh:

wow thanks for this. It's been driving me insane. I removed Adblock Plus and it worked. So I installed AdAway and rebooted. Seems to still work fine also. So try that ad blocking app out. So far so good.

Solved ! ( apparently not related to AdBlockPlus)
To make a long story short, I don't have AdBlockPlus but i DO have DroidWall installed.
just forgot I had to allow "MediaServer" to access the internet (as well as YouTube of course) - problem solved.

This has been happening to me. I fixed it by going to manage apps. YouTube, Delete cache, delete data, uninstall updates and I clicked the turn off button. Ran cleanmaster app and removed junk files. Then I rebooted and turned youtube back on and now videos will play. I'm on the Galaxy S4 stock.
Hopefully this helps someone
By the way Facebook wouldn't play any videos it would say "can't play video" and now Facebook is playing the same videos that it couldn't before.

It's happening to me now too. But since mine's installed as a User App and not a System App, I can't just uninstall the updates, although I did try uninstalling it completely and reinstalling. No joy.
I've tried a dozen different things. You should know that lots of people post lots of "solutions", but for 95% of the users, none of them work.
I'm hurting especially bad, because it happens to me on both types of connections (4G & WiFi). I even tried a 3rd party YouTube app and that wouldn't work either.
All this since today's (or last night's?) v10.25.57 YouTube update!
I am running a Samsung.

Hi,
I tried disabling AdAway and reverting back to the original Hosts file, but no joy.
This time, it's affecting both my 4G & WiFi connections. When this happened before, I could at least watch it on 4G.
The weird thing is, that if I'm not signed in, I can watch videos. But once I sign in, EVEN WHEN USING A 3RD PARTY YOUTUBE APP, I have the problem!
Yes, eventually a YouTube update will come through that will fix it (could be 6 months or so), but I'm thinking that something "underneath" it all got updated/changed at the same time, because otherwise;
Why would it affect me only when I sign in?
And if it was limited to only the YouTube app being updated and there isn't anything else being changed at the same time in the background where you don't see it, then how could 3rd party YouTube apps be affected when you sign in to them with your Google (Gmail) account?
See what I mean? Something else, "under the hood" simply must be going on, amen?
