Hello Everyone,
I'm Perm rooted using Flippy125's Kernal update and CyanogenMOD 6.1.1 ROM with google apps. Despite this, my Android Market has an infinite download bar when I try to download an app for like 10 seconds, then download icon automatically disappears, while the app itself remains on the market without a status (instead of saying INSTALLED or DOWNLOADED, it shows "Free") like it's never been bothered with...could anyone know what the cause of this is?
Have you tried clearing Market's cache? I've had this experience before on my G1, running CM6 before. It seemed to have solved the problem for me. You might want to do that as well.

I know this is a problem a lot of Android users have, but wondered if anybody has found a solution.
Often the market states that an update is available, but when downloading it the app successfully downloads, but then fails to install. The market just sits there with the download percentage bar at 100% and won't progress any further.
I have done the usual things like signing out of Talk, clearing all caches and the data in 'Market' and it resolves it for only a few downloads then I am back to the same problem.
Also clearing the 'Market data' means that I have to tick all the "automatically update" options on all my apps again, which is a pain.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem for good? I'm running a stock rooted ROM.
Cheers.
I am using DK Custom Froyo V4.5.2 ROM by Deep-Knight .. very nice ROM for daily usage .. thanks Deep Knight and other contributors.
All running fine, only problem i am facing is the phone has updated the market to latest version. But when i run this latest market it crashes. So i have to uninstall the updates of market. Any solution for this ?
Secondly, i want to disable all applications like maps, market from auto updating. I don't know how to use comand prompt, so any software or patch to flash to disable auto update.
Thanks for all your help guys.

Summary:
- Old Market Flashable is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17490859&postcount=131
- Freeze Market Updater using an app like Titanium Backup to prevent the market from updating again.
- As for other apps like Maps, I don't think they update automatically (Unless you explicitly allow them to). Auto updating only happens for System Apps like the Android Market.
Good Luck
Google maps auto updates itself regardless of the tick box in the market, I'm not sure if that's for everyone but I know there's a lot having the update problem,
autostarts has solved it for me, and the fact that its also constantly running in the background.

That's weird, I am still on v5.3.0, and I get an option to update it from the market.
I am currently using ARHD 6.1.2 but also had this problem with 6.1.1
When I install google+ (the new leaked version)
(I haven't tried the old/current version)
Its causes some Force closes,
mainly with my people process (contacts)
So i can not access my contact, not even when im composing an sms or via any other way!
Has anyone else experienced this problem and has anyone got a solution?
Thanks for any replies!

Yes, there's been quite a bit of discussion about this in the main thread. I haven't tried it myself, but the new G+ app is causing FC for a lot of (all?) users. It may well be a problem with the underlying HTC base software. Only "solution" I've seen is to uninstall it, sorry.
I'd suggest we all wait for Google to release v2.0 officially, that way we would avoid a lot of issues
I get Force Close on superuser, anywhere from 2-10 times a day...whether the phone is judt on main screen with no apps open, but use any rooted apps like system app remover, rom manager etc etc....force close all the time.
pull out battery, go into recovery, fix permissions...sorts it for an hour or so, then starts all over again....aRGHHH!!!

Do you have the Market version of Superuser installed? If you do, check to see if it has updated to 3.0.5, and if so uninstall the upgrade. There's more about this in the main ARHD thread.
Hey.
I've been waiting for ages to get the market app updated to latest version but my DHD still keeps 2.3.4. Tried to clear Market data several times, still nothing.
I maybe screwed something when I installed it manually before?
I am running stock ROM, no root.
Thanks for any help.

Make a factory reset and try again
Wiped. The problem persist. Weird enough, young padavan :/.

Well, google tells you to open the market and press the Home button(not the back button, the HOME button backs it to the homescreen and leaves the Market running, being able to update itself).
BUT, that did not work for me. So i downloaded it from here
Its v: 3.1.3 i believe.
Should work, but if it doesn't, hit me up.
download market.apk manually and before install clear data market app.
OK have rooted my phone and never had an issue. Now all of a sudden I find I can no longer download from the Market / Play store? This started last week when I downloaded the new skygo app - (Only to find it doesn't work on rooted phones)
If I use the play app - I can visit and search but when I click download and accept I just get a message "Error while downloading purchase".
If I sign into the market on my PC, my phone is showing, all previous apps are showing, I can go to the store and download - but nothing happens, the app never arrives.
Currently installed apps all update without any issues.
Running: Redemption1.0 -Alpha4.0

Already cleared app data.
Have updated the ROM to Alpha6.0 and still no dice.
Any other ideas?
Did you change your LCD Density (DPI) to a different value? The default is 240 and the Market does not always work if you change this. If this is your case then try this
clear the market data and cache
set the density back to 240 (i.e. edit system/build_prop to have ro.sf.lcd_density=240)
reboot
use the Market to update everything (hopefully it works)
set your density back to what you want
reboot

Did you use the BlackICE Icetool app to change densities? If not then you need to manually clear the Market data and reboot. Depending on your country you may need to use something like Market Enabler to pretend you are in the U.S.
Also, the newest versions of Play Store seem a bit better
