I used to use a Sony Ericsson X10a running Android 1.6 and managed to score a Gaslaxy (sweet!) however Android market still thinks my handset is an X10a and downloads from it fail. Google are unable to provide any answers - has anyone else had similar issues? Any and all help would be awesome as this is driving me bonkers
Do a reboot, force close and clear data. Then try again.
Thanks for the suggestion - I did a full factory reset and that didnt make an iota of difference, I'm still getting "download was unsuccessful, please try again". the funny thing is that APTKOR works fine even though appbrain fails.....
Try logging into youtube with your gmail account. Then try market again
Go to the market website, log in there. Once logged in, you can change your settings, choose galaxy s is your current device.
Let me know if it works.

Same here too
Yeah, if you read the comments you'll see a lot of complaints about it. They say its Google's fault, but no other apps are having this issue.
I will post it on my dropbox so all can download if anyone wants it

Might be just a Market network issue, but a lot of the time when this happens to me, I force stop the Market, clear cache and reboot. That usually fixes it for me. Sometimes I think its just the app or the market and you just have to try again later.

I've had issues with hanging downloads from the market, but after 10 minutes or so they download. Some go immediately, as they should, but some seem to hang up.

Try appbrain app market
I had this issue with the new gmail app so i just used appbrain app market and searched for it and downloaded it from there and installed it.
Any time a download hangs, I wait a few minutes and if it still doesn't start I just reboot. The majority of the time this fixes it

Yup....I though the same thing, and all of a sudden, they changed the version on the market and it downloaded just fine. Originally, they released 1.0 and the version now is 1.0.0.1, so I think it was their issue. You guys should be able to download this now without a problem......I just did.
When apps don't download/install properly I go into the sd card under /download and the .apk is usually there. Deleting it and re-downloading or installing from the apk works for me.
Hello,
I'm having a problem with my Twitter app. Every time I go into it, it's attempting to log in, and I'm unable to cancel the login attempt or do anything else other than leave the app via home button.
I can force it to close, or at least, my phone tells me so, but I when I restart it, it still attempts to log in.
Even after shutdowns and restarts this issue persists.
I have recently rooted my G2, however, this problem was occurring before the root anyways.
Does anyone know a possible way to fix this?
PS. I'm new to the whole smartphone thing and rooting scene (1st phone and 1st root) so, any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
EDIT: I've chosen to just delete the app via Titanium Backup. Reinstalled 1.0.5. Problem gone. So much for restoring stock 1.0.4.
Tweetdeck is way better any way to be honest

I had the same issue. Go into settings, accounts and sync, click on the twitter account, then remove the account. Go into applications menu under settings and click on twitter then force stop. You should be able to log in again after that. Haven't had any problems since.

All of the sudden the other day I went to check the status of my apps in the market and to see if any needed to be updated and a strange screen appeared. It has my email address, which is the linked account, and underneath it says "Applications and games owned by this account will appear here." Underneath it has two buttons that say "Browse Apps" and "Browse Games". I've reinstalled the market apk and also reinstalled my current ROM. No luck with anything. Anyone have any ideas?
Hmmm maybe a bump will let people see this?
I know the market got another update to where you could have multiple accounts on the market maybe that had something to do with it.
Try to clear data and uninstall any updates through app manager.

Tried all of that and nothing. Hell, I even tried restoring a recent known good backup and the market still tanks on me. I've googled this and it seems a few others are having the same problem with no luck. We shall see.
*edit*
I just wiped and installed a DIFFERENT ROM and i'm still having the same issue. It starts out fine and then, poof, its back. I'm gonna reinstall again now and try reloading my TB backups one at a time instead of a batch restore. Maybe its a corrupt backup that making my Market wonky? I'm at a loss.
I can't seem to dl any paid apps at the moment from either my SGSII or my Galaxy Nexus. I can dl free apps OK but get "an error occurred. Please try again" message on any paid app.
I was able to dl from the internet but not from the market app itself and I have never had issues before.
Anyone else having an issue like this today? I'm in Canada by the way on Rogers and always have been able to dl paid apps...
I have cleared the cache and wiped the app data and rebooted each device but still get this error when trying to do paid apps...
Bump... Anyone?
I have the EXACT same issue. I've had a ticket open with Google support for 8 days now... and they have failed to get back to me about much of anything...

May I ask what country youre in? You have the SAME issue as me? Can you install free apps but just not the PAID apps?
I now seem to not be getting push notifications from Gmail and things as of this morning anymore either and again... This affects BOTH my GNEX and my SGSII so I know its NOT device related...
Ive read some other threads on Market Issues that are SOMEWHAT the same but not exactly and followed their instructions to fix the issue such as... Deleting my Google account and re adding it, Deleting my credit card and re adding it, etc and nothing has worked...
I mut have deleted the app cache and data like 30 times on EACH device and rebooted like 30 times on each device and still I get the same error...
FRUSTRATING!!!
At least I know its not JUST ME and if I had to GUESS.. Id say that this issue has to do with the switch from Google Checkout to Google Wallet...
*EDIT* My push notifications from Gmail have returned but the Market Error still exists!!! GRRRRR!!!
So... I got a reply from Android today and they advised that I uninstall all market updates to rectify this issue. I did so on my SGSII and rebooted my phone and low and behold.... IT FIXED THE ISSUE... I will try it on my Nexus too if I need to...
EDIT - It did not fix the issue completely as I still get this error but after a couple trys it will let me in to purchase apps ONLY on my SGSII...
Ok so... I did what they said and uninstalled the market updates from my SGSII and it seems to have worked... well... kind of...
I still get the error but now if i try it like 3 times or so it finally lets me purchase paid apps BUT...
I went to do this on my GNEX but since market v3.4.4 CAME with the device there is NO update(s) to uninstall and as such I still CANT purchase paid apps from my GNEX market app... :-(
For ANYONE who is having the same issues as I am, keep an eye on this thread because I wont stop until I figure this out...
Ok, so... I got another email from the help desk telling me to factory reset my device(s) and that should fix it (even though this is CLEARLY NOT device related) so I backed up my items from my GNEX ONLY (as I seem to now have a 75% properly functioning market now on my SGSII as I mentioned in my previous post and dont wanna mess with it) and factory reset and it STILL did not work!!!
I then tried another tip I found here and cleared the cache from the "download manager" app AND again from the Market and THAT did NOT work either!!!
This is getting VERY upsetting!!!
Again... For ANYONE who is having issues like this or similar please keep an eye here as I will continue to post any progress.
I fixed it by deleting all updates to market in Settings/Applications/Manage?Market app. Google Talk could then work as well.
Have the exact same problem now.
Not sure what the issue is!
Have done all the "regular" fixes.
Drives me nuts tbh!
Running AOKP B27, stock Kernel.
Did anyone ever get this fixed? I'm having the same issue on multiple ROMS...currently running Codename Android 1.4.0 I can download free ones no problem but not paid apps....
I'm running AOKP B27 with Trinity Kernel and just bought Poweramp off the market a couple hours ago for $1.99 (48 hour special)...
I had the same problem. I tried all the other poosible solutions, the " Settings > aplication > all > Google Services Framework and force stop, clear cache then reboot your phone." solution did it for me
Hey Guys,
I updated to 4.0.4 last night by clearing the data for Google Services Framework and rebooted. Update went smooth. Noticed this morning that when I go to the Play Store website, it does not show the Galaxy Nexus under My Devices. Same thing for Google Dashboard. I am on AT&T in the US. Anyone else have this issue? Able to resolve it?
Thanks
Perhaps someone on custom 4.0.4 rom or updated via normal method I.e. Google push update can check if their devices are missing as well ?
If so it would most likely be an issue with 4.0.4 or Google play store

I fastboot flashed 4.0.4 update to my phone and it shows up in the Play Store. Just installed an app from the web page no problem.
Has to be something with the way you "forced" the update, OP. Try clearing your Play Store cache/data and rebooting, and logging in/out on the browser.

I tried this. Same thing. Galaxy Nexus does not show up in Play Store on the Web. I am able to download apps fine on the device itself. Any other ideas? Anybody else's not showing up in the Play Store?
This might be a dumb question but are you able to get into the playstore via your nexus? If you can perhaps you should try to download something from your phone and that might activate the play store to accepting your phone there.
Same for me, not showing up via the website but am able to download apps with no issue.

So I got my phone showing up in the Play store by signing in the store again. However, the store force closes every time I try to download an app from the web-ui. Anyone else experiencing this?
Downloading from the web seems to be working as normal for me. There was an error (927) bit disappeared after 20 sec.
Yeah, the problem resolved itself on my phone too.
i just cleared the play data sorted it instantly
it seems the problem is not the 4.0.4 update but clearing the Google Services Framework data. I still cannot see the phone on play store but as suggested above I will wait for another 30 min or so to see if it comes up.
PS: still on 4.0.2

This worked for fixing something missing in my device Play Store App, on my Razr M - it has yet to restore my device via the web browser.
Have tried everything else except Factory Reset (trying to avoid this).
Update: A day later my device is back via the web ~ though I suspect it's related to me removing a Secondary Google Account last night.
