market only works on 2.1 (connection error)

I have searched extensively and have not found a solution to my problem.
Problem: cannot sign in to google account (cannot find a secure connection)
I can flash a 2.1 rom and sign in / download without any problems.
When 2.2 first came out (leak) I could use market but at some point it stopped working.
I have tried every fix on the net. Wiped everything tried every 2.2 rom including early leaks that used to work. wifi does nothing. I can log in to you tube which then lets me use gmail however market will hang instantly and give an error.
I would like to install the 2.1 version of market on a 2.2 rom but I have no idea how to do that. simply replacing vendor.apk does nothing except remove market completely. If this is possible somehow I am willing to try... just need some direction. If it is not possible thats fine too I just would like to know so i can stop trying. lol.

Have you tried dialing "*#*#2432546#*#*"?

checkin failed.
checkin works on 2.1 though obviously.

funny when i went on 2.1 i got the upgrade notification instantly.
this was on a non stock rom, rooted w/s-off and latest radio. of course it wouldn't install but i thought it checked these things before notifying. guess not.
just playing on 2.1 for awhile it is definitely laggy compared to 2.2
coming from winmo 2.1 seemed insanely fast lol. funny how things change.

Have you tried the Beta Unrevoked 3.2 ?
If you go to the website,
h t t p : //unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked3
(Not allowed to post link in Forum yet)
They have an WEB IRC Client link that in turn that has the link for the 3.2 Beta.
Of course, they tell you (quite right too!) to use at your own risk.

Market problems too.
I have been having market issues too. I can get in to the market, but when I try to download an app, it starts then quickly says "download unsuccessful." Right now I am running Redemption ROM (pretty nice BTW), s-off and radio 2.15. I can't even download titanium to get my apps restored. I don't think it is ROM based since the market wasn't working with Virtuous either. Any ideas or known fixes?
I tried searching, but didn't find any answers to this. If there is a thread about it, I apologize, and feel free to point me to that thread. Thanks.

I'm on clockworkmod, no issues with market for me.
Tried clearing cache?

during my searches i saw a lot of posts about download issues. unfortunately i did not really read them since they were not related to my problem.
good luck!

Re-root as 2.2 with Clockwork mod 2.5.0.5, I'm @ 2.2, that ROM and no issues for me.
Just a suggestion (Nandroid 1st!).

lol.
i've done all that a million times. tried older recovery builds, amon-ra recovery, even stock recovery on 2.2. already said i tried all 2.2 roms out... this includes asop roms.
i have a feeling this has more to do with how 2.2 is trying to identify which network i am on which for some reason market wants to know.
how 2.1 can do the job just fine is what i need to know.

[Q] Market bug!!

Thx beforehand!
Using Dinc skyraider 3.2 sense hydra kernel OC 1.15 ghz w/ ov
I noticed a problem when i tried to buy an app(ishoot) from the market,the transaction went ok, it charged the money from my account, but it would not download saying that authorization fail or something. Then i bough another app(fruit ninja) and it downloaded and installed fine. Then an update came out for it and it downloaded fine. Now every update that i try to install downloads fine, but does not install.. so does any1 know a solution to this, or does any1 know where to find the downloaded files so i could install using root explorer?? THX

I use astro but i am sure it's the same.
I have the same problem every now and then and this is what i do...
go into /mnt/sdcard/download
in there you will find your .apk's. you probably have a few in there now. i would delete all of them. go back to market and re-download them. if they do not install, i go to the download folder and launch them through there.
works like a charm.
EDIT: this has nothing to do with what ROM or kernel you have. i have had this problem on every ROM i've tried.

[Q] Deleted googleapps by accident, can't fix phone.

www <DOT> brighthub.com/mobile/motorola/articles/102410 <DOT> aspx
Issue is this:
To install the ROM, you will need the ClockWorkmod ROM Manager.
Start Android Market on your phone and search for ROM Manager. Install the Clockwork Mod ROM Manager. Note that your Defy must be rooted before you can install ROMs on it.

Being as I deleted google apps I can't use the market. So I managed to find a googleapps1.3 apk file on the net, reinstalled it but it just crashes and requires force close whenever it starts, have been told it is a permissions issue so I tried fixing permissions via ROM manager but I get this error:
"An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!"
Now ultimately I want 2.2 froyo anyway, but what is the best way to get the correct Clockwork Mod ROM Manager APK for a motorola defy? I've looked everywhere but cannot find it.
ROM manager has an option to download it, but it only gives options for Droid x, droid 2 and some other non defy phone.
So how do I get myself out of this pickle and install froyo 2.2 or at least get google apps 1.3 working again?
Really appreciate any help, thanks guys

had to make a new account as my password wont work and neither will password recovery
anyway I tried using the defy recovery but it says the update.zip file is invalid and doesn't pass the certificate test or some random thing
how am to get google apps working again? all I want is my stock rom working, or if I can get a 2.2 version that is exactly the same that'd be great.
Can anyone help me? I have the googleapps.apk file but it just crashes if I reinstall it.

If you just want to get back to stock...
1. Send it in for repair.
2. Find a relevant SBF file and flash via RSD Lite. What does Settings -> About phone tells you?

system version blur_version.2.51.1.mb25.retail.en.GB
JRDNEM_U3_2.5.1.1
where would I look to find the SBF file?

managed to find a stock rom and reflash it, all is good now
thanks guys

[Q] Having Problems with my Rooted Kindle Fire PLEASE HELP

Okay So I am tired of trying this on my own and failing so heres the deal... I rooted my Kindle Fire a while ago but for some reason something went wrong in the process. I couldn't browse on the internet without getting an annoying error message and the android market wasn't getting installed. So today I tried fixing it.. AGAIn but today I managed to reinstall CM7 and now I can browse the internet with no errors BUT I still can't get the Android market/ Google play store to get installed properly. So everything seems to be working fine but I can't install the market/play store. So can anyone help me? I tried a few guides most were a little out dated.
If anyone can link me to the proper up to date files for installing the google play store app on my Rooted Amazon Kindle Fire ( running CM7) please post here.

Hey. So you need to install the Google Apps (aka Gapps). I couldn't tell if you had outré if you just installed the play store. Either way, I would reflash the Gapps designed to work with cm7. You can access the Gapps from this thread of hashcode's. Just download the right one and flash it with TWRP in recovery or by adb if you're good with that.

thanks but I fixed it, well not really "FIX" but I installed Jelly Bean and everything works great and I like it better than what I was running before so I guess even though I really wanted to run CM7 this was a needed upgrade. Thank you for your help .

[Q] Hot to root, install recovery and ROM on a SM-T805? Confusing info out there!

Hi there,
I have a SM-T805 from a few months, and I grew tired of its lags and sloppiness. I've tried to read many threads to find the most simple way too root, install TWRP and a ROM, but most of the threads are old and quite confusing.
So... could someone please tell me, step by step and with the proper links, how to ROOT and install TWRP in the easiest and most safe way?
Thanks a lot!

You don't need to ROOT 'AND' install TWRP.
Just install TWRP and it will root for you.
You can use the version below if you wish which I built, I have updated the Super su root files and fixed an issue with the wrong reboot option showing - BOOTLOADER instead of DOWNLOAD mode.
Just install via ODIN then boot into TWRP, select reboot from within TWRP and it will ask if you wish to root your device. After that your device will be rooted with the latest updated root.

Did it and installed Iron Rom. Thanks a lot

I have one problem... after I installed TWRP and rooted, with ANY rom I install, included the original one, I get the "no connection" error with every single app from google. In other words, I can't use the tablet. It's like Google knows the tablet is rooted and blocks it. How can I solve this?

Try resigning into your Google account. If that doesn't work clear cache and data for Google play services.

I found out that when I'm rooted, Android automatically sets my wifi connection behind a non-existent proxy. This happens in EVERY ROM I install, from the original one to Cyanogen. I just have to disable that proxy and everything works. WTF.
