Why is this and how do I fix this, also, why can't I connect usb anymore, tried 2 different cords and 2 different computers. It was working just the other day.

I somewhat solved the first part, just unmount the sd card then everything downloads.

I have the same issue where NOTHING will download from the market.. I tried all the solutions I found on the net. NOTHING.. any ideas?

Same here, I've been complaining about this for a while.
I tried reload my ROM and manually downloading every app again. I found that the problem re-appears once I restore just the "data" portion of an app from Titanium Backup.
I wonder if either (1) something is getting corrupted or (2) it craps out if I restore settings from an older version of an app.
I've got about 30 updates waiting in the market, and can no longer download anything either.

Have your tried, force closing the market from applications, clear the cache, and reboot?

Help, app installer troubles

I'm hoping someone can help.
Recently I started having troubles with my evo.
I am able to download apps from the market but they get stuck "installing".
This happened on Fresh 3.1
I then wiped and installed cm6 and again, same problem. On both I tried killing the downloader service as well as the market. I cleared the market data but could not clear its cache because it was stuck computing.
I tried installing apps from titanium backup and it gets stuck at 0%.
I then used another installer I got from when I installed tweet deck. It's an installer meant to allow you to install apk's received in emails.
That also got stuck.
Un installing also doesn't work. Gets stuck.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I'm at a loss.

Hit cancel in the market and redownload. I find myself in the same position. Sometimes hangs on download or install..

Can't cancel, the button says "installing" and it is greyed out.

It started working. It's strange since it didn't work across different roms.

This has happened to me, sometimes it will install later after canceling the download. But I really think it has to do with titanium, not sure why, but I stopped using it and never have the problem anymore. I am good with starting fresh each time as long as I have my contacts saved to the sdcard.
It might be titanium..
I couldn't leave well enough alone..
I flashed cm6 back onto my phone then ran titanium.
At 16/100 app installs...the phone froze and rebooted. It wouldn't boot back into cm6.
I got stuck at the EVO splash.
I reflashed cm6 back on after wiping it, this time without the snap kernel, and the problem is back.. :\
If this ever happens again go to the /download directory on your memory card and you'll find the apk. You can then install from that. This happened to me a few times.
I'm not sure what you're referring to..but the installer doesn't work either way.
I tried installing some apk's I have in my sd card and the installer gets stuck at "installing" with the little bar under it continuously moving.

Just flashed CM6, few issues..

I have CM6 and I have a few issues and questions. First, I recovered by backup with Titanium after I flashed CM6 and Gapps. Before I had almost all of my apps on my SD card and everything worked fine. When I restored, everything was placed on the phone. A few apps weren't even showing up under my downloads in the market app. I then moved everything back to my sd card and apps with shortcuts updated, but widgets and swype are not showing up, even after moving them back to the phone.
How do I get the new version of android market for CM6? I tried downloading an app through the markets site on my computer but it did not download, or get forwarded to my phone, for some reason.
Which kernel should I use to overclock? Ive read a few posts and comments about a few kernels and some apparently cause more bugs and issues.
Thank you.
EDIT: Ive managed to find solutions to most of my issues. The only problem I'm having now is apps not installing from the Market website. Im using CM6 and flashed 2.2.11 of the market app to my phone. Whenever I hit install on the site it claims to download but nothing is reaching my phone.
That happened to me the only solution i found for mine was formating the sd card. First you should try to fix-permissions n then reboot if that dosent work id suggest backing up your sd data on ur comp n formating

Cannot Install anything from market

Let me start off by stating I am far from a newb. I have been rooting and flashing android ROMs since the G1. This is the first time I have run across this. My wife's DInc wont let her install any apps. Install unsuccessful each tome and started on stock ROM. I just rooted wiped and flashed cm7. Still same deal. I have never encountered this. Thinking corrupt internal memory. Anyone else have an idea? Tried wiping market cache data etc... tried signing into Google talk... funny thing is out of warranty by one day now. Awesome timing.

how new is the inc? have you checked that the PRL settings are correct? what message do you get when you try to install apps? it wouldn't hurt to do a *228 just to ensure all settings are written correctly.
I had the same problem but it turned out that the apps couldnt interact with my sd card. does it display a pop up error message when you try to install an app?
Last 2 DIncs I rooted, the SD that came with it was Not FAT32. Those had the same issue you describe, I reformatted SD, worked fine.

I'm having the same issue.. I thought it was from me messing around with the provider #'s like 310004 310012 etc.. im on verizon... cant install anything... get a popup of can install on usb or usb storage.... pic attached. ( http://db.tt/0aLvpMJ )
Well... it let me update these... http://db.tt/wCkP1we
But not these.... http://db.tt/NtTKVRc
I'm stumped... all permissions are set correctly. I've erased data and cache multiple times from the market... I've *228'd... and rebooted MANY TIMES!

Thats the exact same problem i had.
Use root explorer and navigate to /sdcard/.android_secure and delete the file "smdl2tmp1.asec" if it is not in that location then it could be in /mnt/secure/asec/
After i deleted the file it worked just fine with no errors.
Does it install if you unmount the SDcard with the system settings first?
I tried doing that but it didn't work for me. But it doesn't hurt to try.

Ahh, I had an issue with it a while back that was fixed by unmounting the sdcard before installing them. I'd read about it in this article before, maybe it will help someone here: http://lifehacker.com/5714300/how-to-fix-installation-unsuccessful-errors-in-the-android-market
Seems like it mostly covers problems with updates, though.

Go to settings, applications, manage applications and click on Market; delete Market cache and Market data and reboot. You'll have to reasign your Google account to the Market when you first launch it, and it'll take a minute or two to sync up but, it should fix it.

i had the same problem.
my market was version 2.3.4, and i think it was either to old or it was corrupted.
it not loaded the app pictures and the apps itself.
i tryed it now for some days with the cache deletion, but it doesn't really worked for me.
sometimes it worked for some seconds and then it had the same problems again.
the fix was pretty easy.
i downloaded the new market and installed it.
problems where gone, and i now have a nice new market.
here is the page where i downloaded the market.

download the apk and install it with the astro file manager.
don't forget to enable "menu->settings->applications->unknown sources" before.

thank man i just install latest market and it still stuck on downloading i guess i have to do factory reset to solve this problem...
Mine does that when I have too little ram available...
I've done all of those things and a few more (uninstalled all downloaded apps, cleared caches from all apps, uninstalled market updates, wiped cache partition, wiped dalvik cache, unmounted SD card) and then finally a factory reset and I still can't download anything from the market. So don't count on a factory reset fixing anything.

Market my apps server error

When I go into market and select my apps, I get this error:
A server error has occured. Retry,or cancel and return to the previous screen.
I tried clearing data, but still does the same.
Anybody ever have this problem, anybody know a way to fix this?

Did you also clear cache for the Market app? Have you tried using a different internet connection, i.e., switch from 3G to WiFi or vice versa? Have you rebooted and reestablished your connection? Maybe use CWM to reset permissions? Backup the app, then uninstall/reinstall?
Try those (probably that order is "easiest" to "biggest pain in the butt") and see if one of 'em works.
If none of that works, what system changes have you done since the last time you successfully used Market and My Apps? Did you apply any patches, switch kernels, install a whole new ROM?
Yeah I tried all that. I was taking out the new market and putting back the old. After I did that I cleared data, and problem started. I restored my backup and it still gave me that problem. How I fixed it was backing up my apps with titanium backup, formatting all data in clockwork. And re-signing in to my google account, then batch restore all apps only in titanium backup. Only restoring data on certain apps.
Everything is back to normal, I believe it had something to do with getting messed up on googles end. Everything is good now.
