I'm on market version 2.3.6. Running gingerbread leak. Most of the time, no apps will download. They stay at "starting download..." And when I click on them while they're stuck at that step, I get "download failed, please try again." Every once in a while it works but its randomly.
The market is one thing that I can't stand. It necessary works. Does anybody know what I should do?

try fixing the permissions on rom manager if you have it
Mine does the same thing at times. Try wiping your Market data under Menu>Applications>Manage Applications>All>Market and see if that helps. Like you said, it's a random thing, especially if you are using a custom market from a custom ROM. The stock ROMs I've used don't seem to have this issue.
that doesnt fix it. The 2.3.6 market isnt custom though. it was pushed to my phone...
i think it was the rom though. i nandroided back to 3.70 and it hasnt had any issues. same market version.

Rydah did you try to move all your apps and delete the android_secure folder? Seems strange that when you did a nandroid back it was fine. Try going back to that nandroid and move all the apps that are stored on the sd card over to the phone. Then browse with a file explorer and delete the android_secure folder and reboot. Then you can move them all back to your sd once rebooted. I've had to do this a few times after flashing new roms because that folder gets corrupted.

Some apps that have been restored with Titanium Backup won't update in the market. The download will reach 100% and then the installation will fail, or it will just sit there.
Usually I can resolve it by unmounting the SD card, but that is really annoying, and I would like to find the cause & cure. Does it have something to do with the app's cache or something?
I had a similar issue. I think it might have to do with the market itself. Instead of updating the app from the update tab in market, search for the app in market and install from there. That has helped me.
Also, it helps if you post what your current setup is. Various roms, kernels and basebands can cause issues too. Not just titanium.

It's not titanium or the market from my experience, It's the kernel. The only time I haven't gotten hang ups was with the stock kernel.
Just cancel and re start the download. May take a couple tries :/

This is stock 2.2, rooted. I did an RUU install, and then used Titanium to restore my apps. They all show up in the market.
Once I have gotten an app to update with the sdcard unmount, subsequent updates appear to be fine. Still annoying though.
Oh hmm. I guess I wasn't on a stock kernel long enough to see it. I know I've seen other people post about it, guess it just bothers some people more then others.
I do wish there was a fix for it, or some way to realize what was causing it.

Maybe switching ROMs or re-flashing your current ROM will work. Give it a shot, backup your apps of course.

Are they apps that you have ever had installed? Try installing an app that you have never had installed and see if that works. If it does, then use a file explorer (I use astro), and see if there's anything in the folder titled ".android_secure" (without the quotes of course) on your sdcard. I actually had this problem before, and there was some left over app data that was interfering with the installation I guess
geez was hoping this would work but I just checked my astro application and checked android secure and all directories are empty. also this is a problem with applications that I ready have that need to be updated and brand new applications I am downloading from the market... I just get a triangle with an ! in the middle of itfor each application that did not successfully install... and this is a brand new problem haven't done anything different been running the newes t fresh for months now

What is your memory situation?
Froyo apps2sd ? A2sd ?
GO into recovery and clear cache and Dalvick cache.
Try wiping the market data this happened to me couldn't update or install anything and it worked
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Did you install your previous apps from the market or did download apk's then install them? Try Settings>Applications>Manage Clear market cache and data that might work like the other person said. Check your memory. What rom are you using? Try backing everything up then go do a factory reset and then setup up your google account that's what I did when that happened to me months back and seemed to work. Hope I helped
Hello,
I rooted my Evo with Unrevoked a few weeks ago. However, my phone has been experiencing major issues. When I shut the phone down and restart it many of my links to programs are broken. I try to download the programs again but i get error messages that the download can not be completed. I have flashed different roms. I have updated the Radio etc. I cleared the data and cache before each flash. I have no idea what the problem is. Can anyone help?

What. Rom and kernel are you experiencing this on? When you say links to programs are you referring to apps?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
What programs? please say more about the phone system.
Thank you for your quick replies.
I have flashed Calkulin and MikFroyo. Using the stock kernels for each.
When I click an app it will not open. Like when you uninstall a program on windows and the link to program remains but it will not let you open it because the program no longer exists. "app no longer installed" it also changes the icon to the market icon.
What recovery image did you use to flash the Roms?
Let me double check
Please try to use Amo-Ra is the best. Cm is known to have problems.
So flash this and report back if the problem persists? Thank You

You can actually flash it with Rom Manager App.
It sounds like your phone is not wiping correctly... maybe try caulks format all

Do you have a nandroid backup of your system with your apps? If not, did you restore your apps with something like Titanium? If no to both, you'll need to re-install from the market.

Does it have an option to connect your apps with the market if not made a backup and just download them it should be fine and np

I'm having a similar problem. After the 2.33 update, it FCs when I chose "My apps". I tried downgrading to several different versions, cleared data/cache, wiped cache/dalvik, but no joy. Now, after I press "accept" on initial start, it FCs. Any help?
Thanks.

Update: I used TiBu, wiped everything again, still no joy. I ended up deleting the Market app from Manage Apps. This left the /system/apps version of Market intact, but unavailable to launch. I rebooted the phone, the /system/apps Market became available in my apps list, and it worked. It then automatically updated to 2.33 again and now all is well.
I had similar problem with my htc evo with cm7 rom after flashing a google add on. As soon as you clicked maket it would try to open but then close right away,I tryed to wipe market data didnt work. Did as you sudgested and wiped catch and dalvik catch and reinstalled rom and the previous add on and no problems after that. Thanks
Question I already had a add on flashed after installing cm7 and tryed flashing another one over the other add on. Is that why I had problems with market?
The main reson I tryed flashing the second add on was After flashing the first one I did'nt have a voicemail app. The voice mails would come in a text with a link to hear the message.
Does anyone know a way to get my voice mail back? Thanks
Hey.
i have an htc desire and yesterday put cm7 on it. (7.0.3) but if i reboot my phone all my installed apps are gone.. Only the standard apps (stock) are still availible..
HOW CAN I FIX THIS? Cause this really sucks..
Thanks in advance,

Did you backup your apps before you flashed the rom?
Sent from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
Yeah, Was running on RCMIXHD first but i just wanted an clean install so i saved all the .apks in an folder..
next i wiped everything and flashed the rom.. And then this happened..
edit: But the strange thing: When i install the apks it says already installed, and all settings are good (tweetdeck) so i dont have to login and stuff.. same for whatsapp, tapatalk.. and more.
Anybody knows the answer?
Am I missing something here? In the OP you say you lost all your apps but in your second post you say "...when I install the apks..." so you must still have the apps. Once you wipe your phone then flash a new ROM you have to re-install all your .apks anyway...unless I'm missing the point.
well i have an map on my SD with all my apk's... and i can install them. When installed its no problem. After reboot, all apps that i installed are gone..
Are you using a third party launcher? If so try swapping back to stock and see if that helps. If not swap back again to the third party launcher and see if they've hey prestoed back.
Also, try backing up using Titanium Backup. Makes life easier after installing new ROM. Then I'd try a full wipe and reflash your new ROM.
Your SD card is obviously mounted if you can access the .apk's so I'd try the steps above first.
Well it worked Awesome! Thanks!
