Not able to download from market on evo - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone have an issue with the market? I can not download anything. In catlog it shows can't find pathname for completed download uri.
Any ideas?

tried a battery pull? Just checked mine, works fine.

YES tried this.. I did have a problem with the latest market where I had to uninstall the market update to revert back to the ORIG market (before the update) to get it to download anything.. BUT since I did a ROM update, I dont have the old version anymore .. so NOW the latest version of the market does not download at all....
Any ideas??

If google voice came on your rom, make sure you haven't killed or uninstalled it. That will mess up market downloads sometimes.

I dont think it came with the ROM but I did install it. Anyway, its there and running fine so I guess that isnt the issue with the market...
HMMM

You could try installing an older version of the market. Has it worked at all since the rom update? Or it just isn't working right now?

It was not working BEFORE the rom update but I was able to uninstall the market update and use the OLD market and it worked fine..
SO I believe this is a GOOGLE MARKET ISSUE.. where can I find the previous market that WILL install on the EVO?

If you want, you can pm me with your email & I'll email you the vending.apk that came with cm6 for the Evo. I'm not sure if you can simply replace the apk in system/app or how to go about installing, but if you want it I'll send it to you.

Just so you know, you can upload it here in the thread as well. And yes, the market apk can be replaced.

When I click insert, it only gives the option to insert from gallery, camera, or URL. This may be because I'm on my phone, not sure.
And second, I just remembered that my market is themed. I don't think this will cause problems but the op may not want a matted blues market. If not I could pull it out of the original rom download.

Yea, that's just cause you're on the mobile app. And it wouldn't make a difference, just his preference, but yea the original apk could be pulled.
Also OP, what rom are you using?

[APP][Q] Facebook 1.4.0

so Facebook updated their Android app. When i try to update, installation was unsuccessful.
Having had to deal with this before....i backup'd w/ TB, uninstalled, restarted, and trying to update again. Same issue (installation was unsuccessful). Now, TB won't let me restore my backup for some reason
Has anyone else experienced this yet or know how to fix it??
Worst case, could someone upload the 1.4 .apk for me?
Thanks guys.

Some ROMs will not allow the update...for instance I'm running Ultimate Droid and launcher pro fails for done reason.

I had to uninstall w/ TB and Reboot. Clear cache/data from market (restart) in order to install.
Then had to fix permissions with rom manager in order to run the app.
Seems like quite a hassle...wonder if anyone else is going through troubles

Market told me there was an update available, I went in and did the manual update and it d/l and installed with no problem. See device info below. We finally get to catch up with the iPhone zombies with "Places"....cant say that I missed it too much.
I'm running Uncommon Sense and I can't update to FB 1.4.0 either. It just says installation unsuccessful. If anyone finds a solution please post.

after it fails in the market, go to astro sdcard/download and instal from there. Thats what i do with all the fail installs. Always works.
Ugh I'm on uncommon sense to, no fix yet guys?
If your facebook apk is in the system/app directory, you may need to manually delete the apk (use Root Explorer), reboot, then try installing Facebook from the market.
(This worked for me with Uncommon Sense)

Pocket Legends APK

Does anyone have the Pocket Legends APK released yesterday?
I would be so very thankful if someone could supply me with it since it is the only bloody app that refuses to download from the market.
having the same problems on my phone as well.
had my mate next to be download and install it but weirdly the apk doesnt exist in data\app or system\app....
but +1 i want the apk too
Can't he do a search for the .apk?
yeah we searched for pocket* using root explorer with no results. Unless you know what its called..
Get him to uninstall it, get the application installation tracker, reinstall and it should say shouldn't it?
he tried to uninstall it and it made his launcher crash. now it doesnt show up in his app drawer after he rebooted his phone. he went to market to uninstall there and now it will only download but not install. It just hangs at the installing status.
hes not too happy anymore haha...
This apk is impossible to find, even apps like apkshare won't find a trace of it.
Scratch that, I got it

nice!! thanks mate!
I'm still having issues with this. I've downloaded it to my Evo using Myn's rom, wont install. Donwloaded the apk from here, still wont install.. flashed CM6 and still no luck. Is it not compatible with the Evo or something?
It originally installs on the SD card, and is 40(!)MB, so make sure you have space.
Mine also installed 2nd time from the market, and it's fun to play! I'm happy to see and MMO finally on android, I was craving for one! A bad point is, that it seems you have to pay a lot of extra to buy +dungeons, items, etc. No good....
Really nice with BT Mouse and TV-Out this one!
Thank you for the link

1.5.1 is on market but problem with download still here ( plz can anybody upload it somwhere?
:/
I have the same problem
I dont understand, what is so special on this aplication, that its not possible download it from repository of market. Other applications are downloading correctly.
When I press install, It seems that it will start downloading, but after few seconds apears download bar, where is nothing happening. I am user of Desire with Leedroid froyo rom. I tried clean market and download manager data, but problem is still there.
Do you have any idea how to resolve it?
Meantime can someone upload .apk file of version 1.5.1?
Thanks and sorry for my english.
Ah yes, the game has been updated (to 1.5.1), the earlier APK is not usable any more. And for me it appears to actually download it, just not install it.
same to me...can't install the game from the market .
and i have the earlier apk version
Thanks for the download link!

this is happening on mine and wife's phone too we are both running bonsia b14
Seems to be happening on a few GB leaks. The only way I found to fix it is to delete the market and market updater, flash in an old market 2.3.6 and freeze Market Updater. I will be experimenting with 3.0.2.7 tomorrow but in the meantime here is 2.3.6 for you to try:

Yeah, I believe that any 3.x version will still update automatically no matter what you freeze. I will see if I can find 3.026 somewhere today and try that. But you have to clear data in Titanium and Force Stop in settings, then remove it completely from your system, flash the file above and immediately freeze market updater and market feedback upon boot. The older version of the market is much faster anyway.

Oh ok thanks I d/l yours. Will follow this when I get home tonight. This started last Wednesday or Thursday for me sucked I was a way on vacation rebuilding my phone on my anniversary at dinner LOL. No matter what I did I thought there was a issue with permissions or something tried everything except flashing back to stock. Is it only on certain versions of the leak? I can go back to ec05 but really don't want to.
Yes it is only on certain leaks and I am guessing it is caused by the same thing that causes the new Google Voice to FC. Anyone running Market 3.1.5 on a Gingerbread leak let me know which ROM so I can see if we are missing a file removed as bloat.

That does not run either the new Market or Google Voice updates. Is there a GB leak ROM that does not FC with either of these updates? I guess I can compare files in the stock deodexed EH17.

Have you installed them like new, or have you restored them? That could be a problem with going from Gingerbread to ICS. Also there is a GPS patch in the development thread. Why don't you give that a go? You might need to reinstall them from scratch again. If that doesn't work with Swype, then they probably haven't updated it to handle 4.0.3. I have the same ROM too. Everything is great, but the gallery and camera fc's and charging is slow as hell and the battery drains quickly.
tried that
i tried to download from the website but it needs you to uninstall swype first. and i can't uninstall cause it's preinstalled. Because im new to this i don't know how or if you can uninstall a preinstalled app.

You would have to use titanium backup or root explorer to erase a system app

Ohhh that's why. Okay... Go into the Play Store and download Titanium Backup. I think you can do this with the free version. Open it and at the top you should see Overview, Backup/Restore, and Schedules. Hit Backup/Restore and scroll down until you see "swype........" Tap it and hit uninstall. After that, try install your new swype.
AWESOME
AWESOME. Thanks guys you were really healpful. I used the titanium backup (free) and was able to uninstall. Finally able to swipe again
So do you guys have any tips on getting my location to lock when using maps. it's not that it's is slow it just doesnt lock me in at all.

I personally prefer Root Uninstaller with my rooted phones to get rid of system apps and bloatware!

Rooted and installed Cyanogenmod 7.1, but cant download anything from market...

I followed the g2 root wiki and installed cyanogen mod 7.1 per the directions, and I cant download anything from the market. It just says "app name" could not be downloaded due to an error.
I restored to the froyo backup I made, and marketplace downloads still work.
I then downloaded the ILWT rom, installed that and the same thing, cant download anything. Anyone know whats going on?

I've had that problem myself, Not sure if its a CyanogenMod issue or google apps issue.
That aside go to settings/language & input and change the language to anything but english then switch back, That should fix the issue.

Ended up switching to the Andromadus Audacity Beta 3 rom and no issues at all with it, but if I end up going back to a cyanogen one I will give that a try.
One thing I noticed was that on the cyanogen roms, it would have the old marketplace. On the Andromadus Audacity Beta 3 rom it had the new play store. Not sure if that has anything to do with it?
