Downoad error message?? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've go the G2 and its rooted.
Anyway, I was checking to see if I did the root properly and ended up resetting my phone to the factory settings , and I went on applanet to get a few of the apps I lost and I'm trying to download, but wheN I do I get a download error message.
Anybody know what the issue may be?

Are you currently properly flashed to a stable rom?

are you downloading it directly to the phone via the phone browser?
sometimes the browser doesn't play nice with certain file downloads... just manually stick them on your sd and open them with a file manager

I have whatever ROM came with the phone lol.
Yeah, looks like I may have to manually do it until I fix the issue, because this has never happened before so I was trying to understand why now.

you can try a free app called "download crutch", it's no longer on the market but if you use a little google'ing you can probably find it. All download crutch does is enable your browser to download files regardless of format

Lost access to copy protected apps after root + A2SD

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.

Removing android market (gapps)?

Hey all,
I'm running cm7 stable and have noticed recent that a new market version has come. So I tried updating though settings>applications but the option to update wasn't even there. So I found a new version online (3.0.27) and downloaded it. It was an apk file so I just ran it from astro, but it didn't work.. just kept on saying "application not installed". Next I tried to remove market but it would not let me either.
I deleted com.android.vending and anything else that came up with either "market" or "vending" in it but I still can't get the new version to install.
Any advice? Is there a list of files somewhere that pertain to the market that should be removed?

I tried to replace market on my Moment when a new version had come out and the only way I could do it was by pushing via adb
Yeah that's one thing I've yet to try. hopefully I can do this when I get home
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I just downloaded a version I found on the forums, and clicked on it once it downloaded and it prompted to install then installed normally.
But I'm on MIUI, which I'm sure made a difference. I think I have the apk that I used in my dropbox if you want to try it.
I do remember that back on CM6 when a new market was released it was almost impossible to get it the update. I tried multiple ways and couldn't get it to work (others couldn't either) and just gave up.
Have you tried replacing the old one with the new one via Root Explorer?

Done a restart ?
If it does not help: Because you are rooted, you should be able to delete the Android Market. You can get the AndroidMarket.apk from the net and reinstall it(Unknown Sources have to be checked). But before doing something fancy, you should do a BACKUP, with CWM or RZR.

Yeah several restarts. Just got an update, it appears the youtube app also gets stuck with the rotating circle...cant load the video. Cant help but assume these are related. And also I've tried this on both wifi and 3G, same.

This is strange indeed. If even the solution above doesn't help, I would recommend you to flash you ROM via ODIN. Usually it should replace the missing files, so this could work. Do a Backup as mentioned above.
BTW: But generally your internet works? (via Browser)

Yes my internet works fine. I actually cant do anything requiring a usb cable since I lost mine and wont be getting a new one till the weekend maybe. I actually tried some other things like clearing the cache partition in recovery (stock) and logging out of gTalk and relogging in which solved similar problems for people online. Just seems everything is fine...except the market cant connect and download stuff, and youtube cant connect and load videos...I feel its a google account problem surely but dont have a clue what to do. Thanks for your response all the same.
First......Ensure SD Card is properly seated, open phone and make sure of this!!!
Do these :
Settings/Applications/Manage
Applications/All/
Downloads/Clear Data.
Media Storage/Clear Data....

I've done them...nothing. I've also tried clearing the Dalvik cache using Titanium Backup...didnt help. After leaving the phone over night with a dowload still in the background..this was the error I found in the morning 'Error Download Could be Completed (497)'..???

I cant quite explain what happened, but I fixed it. It had to do with a botched backup/uninstall of google books with TB. I tried to back it up but it seemed to just hang up. Then I killed TB in the Task Manager and restarted it. I realised a backup had been made for the older version(1.46) instead of the new version(1.52). Google Books showed up as a system app after my last FW upgrade and I updated it (through the market) but the update made the app unusable(FC everytime I start it). I ignored all that at the time since I didnt use it actually. Tried to remove it yesterday and I guess that set this whole mess in motion. Thanks to all

Annoying Market Glitch - reinstall after wipe

I was booting up for the first time after a wipe, finished the setup and all my apps were auto installing over wifi. Well my power went out in the middle of all the apps downloading,so an error appeared for each app in my status bar.
Manually I could start each installation one by one. All good. But adobe flash player was one of the apps that got interrupted. I've obviously had it installed constantly thru ICS. Well immediately the market won't let the download continue for flash because it got interrupted. Even though it was just installing 30 seconds ago. Says my device is not compatible. Is the market that glitchy where I'm not out of the loop of existing users allowed to continue using flash? It took a simple power outage failed download and the market can't remember I should have flash installed?
I'm annoyed cause I wanted to keep flash officially in my app install list.

Maybe try pulling the flash related apk from a back up, then push to your /system/app folder then fix permissions then use titanium back up to restore market link

Seems as if Adobe has pulled the Flash player out of Play Store earlier then the said august 15th date...
Can't find Flash player on the play store thru search (on a Gnex which doesn't have it installed).
On my phone, which does have it installed, says my device 'isn't compatible with this app' when I go into the Play store and look it up. If you'd like, I could attach the .apk file here..
EDIT: Attached Adobe Flash Player 11 apk

I don't think you can search for Flash on a Gnex since it's not supported. Try browsing to play.Google.com from your desktop. But even if you find it you may not be able to push it to your device.

Hmm, that's strange. Seems your right, but I HAD previously installed it on my Gnex... and flash is working in any case. Maybe it's JB, since it's not supported, it won't show up in the app store?

If you copy the url of the app from your desktop/play store and open it through market on your device, it will say unsupported.
Forget flash. Use html5, it's way better.

[Q] [Redmi 1s] Can't download anything from playstore

Hi, i got the redmi1s few days ago. Today, i decided to root it and right after that i couldn't download anything from the playstore. It just keeps on buffering. Once in a while after rebooting it starts downloading but, it is freakishly slow. things that took 5 mins before takes more than half hour and/or it says couldn't download in the process.
i.imgur.com/eb6FPyI.png
I've tried clearing data, cache on the apps, factory reset, removing and adding back google account and other things that were suggested in the forum.
Edit: now i can't seem to install anything. While trying to install it says the file could not be parsed or something. Happens after rebooting the device.

Edit: Somehow, was able to download supersu from the playstore and it said no storage available while i haven't even installed anything happens when i'm installing externally.

So yeah, are there any solution/s for the following problems. I'm planning to flash a new rom, PAC. But, i've never fiddled around much before.
Try

The apk file shows not enough space and after reboot the apk file is says file couldn't be parsed as in the pictures in the op.
I had the same problem.. Just wipe data,cache,dalvik, from recovery. Then reboot n try installing . it should work....
Good luck !
