[Q] Unable to download marketplace apps - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

All,
I'm having a bit of an issue after flashing the Android Revolution HD 5.1.6 ROM - it seems that whenever I try and download an app from the market that it fails to download.
I originally flashed the ROM and forgot to do the EXT4 so re-did it flashing the EXT4 first but still have an issue.
Strange thing is, my marketplace apps synced themselves on initial boot after flashing the rom so I have them, it's just getting any new apps that fails.
Any ideas?

Menu/settings/applications/ click the all tab. Scroll down to market and clear data and cache. Then try again. Should fix it.

I am having this problem exactly, except going from 5.1.6 to 5.1.7 with the EXT4 data partition format. Marketplace synced all my apps fine on first boot, but updating and installing any other apps is unsuccessful. Installing from market.android.com works fine. Clearing the market cache doest fix. Any ideas people?

Look for a folder in your sd card named lost dir and delete everything in it. Then delete any apk files in the android secure folder. Then wipe market data and cache. Then load market and see what happens.

I just flashed the 1.32 RUU and we're having the same problem there too, so Im gonna root it and use a fresh SD card on AR5 and see where that gets me...

Right Ive just flashed the 5.1.7 rom including the data partition wipe... On the SD card LITERALLY was a couple of folders containing mp3s and photos. Nothing android at all. I still cannot install anything from the marketplace. Any more ideas guys? It doesnt appear to be from the phone? Maybe Googles side?

I still can't get this working. I've tried clearing the cache partition and dalvik, fresh Rom install, clean SD card. I can install from the market website, but everything from the app fails.
Edit: just to clarify, clearing data partition and setting up a new Google account fixes the market... Which is pointless cause my paid apps are with my main gmail account. I restored the nandroid of the data partition and market is back to not working. It's becoming more and more clear that this is a Google issue with my account.

I'm also running ARHD 5.1.7 and I've found the market tries to download apps, then stops. Restarting the phone, and the file(s) download straightway without a problem... I suspect it's a Google issue, rather than a rom problem.

Same here, tryed also with new google account and works for it but not with my old account...

Oookay I'm up working again.... (AR 5.1.7 is brilliant BTW)
Id read about making sure Google talk was signed in, and id checked a fair few times, but it didn't work. I did just read something about logging out of talk and logging back in, so tried that and it worked. All fixed.

Worked for me !!! Thx a lot

[Q] Starburst ROM, market problems

Just installed
[ROM] StarBurst Froyo HTC 2.29.405 [17 Feb] Stable Data2SD | Unlimited memory | Stock
I'm now having problems with Market downloads, messages like "package file is invalid".
I've tried wiping the dalvik cache as per the FAQ but that only allowed me to install one more app. Funny thing is that the problem developed over time, with the first few Market apps installing trouble-free. Any ideas? I seem to be unable to post this at the StarBurst forum.
I´ve had the same problem and wiped my Dalvik-Cache but now my phone doesn´t want to boot :/
I just read at StarBurst´s blog that I shouldn´t have done it, but there´s no solution given for what to do if I´ve mistakenly done it.
Is there anything I can do now without deleting all of my data? It´s not important to save my personal data like contacts or something else, but I wouldn´t like to loose my app data
tried this rom but wasn't that good
I haven't had any problems w/ Market on StarBurst 1.3.3.4 or when I was with 1.3.3.5.
First, save all of your SD card data onto your PC hard drive, then do the 3 wipes: wipe data, cache and dalvik-cache. If you have synched your contacts and calendar, good. If you haven't, do it before wiping. ALso, did you guys partition properly? Remember the sequence: Partition the FAT32 portion first, then the EXT4. Starburst works best on EXT4, and won't work well with EXT1 or EXT2.
Do a nandroid backup, execute the 3 wipes, repartition your SD card using GParted, then reflash StarBurst. If you're wary of re-installing every app you've ever installed, then download TitaniumBackup from either Market or AppBrain on your PC, then save the APK into your SD card, then use File Explorer to launch it. TitaniumBackup backs up all your apps and settings, so you won't have to manually reinstall everything later on.
Wiping dalvik cache is on the list of donts.. Once wiped the kernel hangs at boot looking for dex files..it's a well known issue..
The recommended method to remove dalvik cache is to delete it in titanium.. Or with adb while system is running..
The market file parse error as mentioned is again on the list of faqs which should have been read.. It is because the system partition is full.. The solution too is on my site. It is to convert the W version script you have now, into the latest X script which had that issue solved..
Guys, read the faq page on my site when you have issues, or preferably before you have them.. If you have rom specific problems, post them in Starburst thread where experienced people can see it and respond..If you're unable to post there, tough..

MARKET - install failed

HELP! I am running the latest SPRINT LOVERS ROM and have been having an issue with downloading NEW apps from the market and also installing updates to APPS. I could not get ANYTHING to install or download using the LATEST MARKET so I flash the OLD market to my phone. for the past week or so, I have been able to download SOME new apps and update SOME APPS. However, some apps, I had to uninstall and THEN reinstall or else I would get a INSTALL FAILED message. Now as of today, I cant download ANY new APPS as it downloads and then TRIES to install and I get a DOWNLOAD FAILED. In CATLOG I see "DEXOPT FAILED" and it references the downloaded file I was just downloading.
How do I fix this so that I can download again. I see in the android market forum that LOTS of people are having this issue but there is no resolution. I though it might be the memory card but I tried a different one and SAME issue. I also cleared the cache and DALVIK cache and same issue (the dexopt failed mentions the DALVIK CACHE). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Well, you can try reflashing the rom, going into apps clearing the market cache, reboot, or flash the newest gapps.

I wiped cache and dalvik cache... Same issue....
The problem isn't the market, well the upgrading/installing new apps part isn't. There is a temp file that is on your sd card which is for the market, if that file gets corrupted or flagged with low on space, it'll prevent updates/new installs from happening. To fix this you need to delete that file, you can only see this file via plugged into a computer as a storage device then go to .android_secure and in there will be a random named file with .tmp at the end. Just delete that, unmount and restart the phone, after that it's back to installing again.

I dont have that TMP file in the folder mentioned. I know whichj on you are referring to and a while back I had this file which prevented me from installing files.. But I dont have it now.. any other ideas??
Note: the file is called smdl2tmp1.asec and I dont have it ...
Now something else strange... I SHOULD be able to download and install APPS with the card unmounted.. I cant EVEN download an APP if the card is mounted on the PC or unmounted from the phone settings.. any ideas
Also I notice that some times the phone will reboot while doing an install from market. I googled and saw others with this issue.

OK well I found something on another forum that mentioned re-flashing the ROM overtop fixed the market errors.. Well, it put the NEW market back and I cant download or INSTALL anything. I now am flashing the old market back.. any ideas? the new market wont even start a download as it ERRORS right away with DOWNLOAD failed...

[Q] Upgraded to Gingervillian 2.4 on HTC Desire. Problem with Dalvik app's force quit

Hi,
Had GV 2.1 running fine but thought i'd upgrade to 2.4. Backed all files up in TP first and installed zip file of 2.4 from recovery mode.
Went fine but SD card said 0mb and lost A2SD. int memory said 4mb instead of 60mb - 100mb like before.
As its been a couple of months since last modding, I forgot what to do so looked up issues and tried going to recovery again and clearing cache and wiping dalvik cache as well as installing a2sd Dark tremor script again which seemed to load fine but still no joy on int memory.
Then remembered last time I moved Dalvik to sd using terminal and this gave me my int memory, so I entered 'su, and A2sd cachepart'. It said successful so rebooted phone.
Then the trouble started. All app's one after the other started force quitting and I couldn't use anything inc terminal or TP. Obviously done something wrong.
Note. I have SD ext 4 for A2SD.
Anyway I've just rebooted to recovery and restored backup I did before upgrading ROM.
Can someone explain in layman's terms what went wrong and exactly what I need to do in order before/after upgrading to GV2.4 please?
P.S
Just booted after restoring from recovery however all personalization has gone. Back to stock gingervillian desktop. All app's and launcherpro gone widgets gone. Downloaded TP root from market again and restored all apps + data but launcher pro isn't there, have had to download from market again.
Gone to TP again and restored missing app's but goes to soft reboot half way through. This is even though the market is working as downloaded TP! The stress!

[Q] Incredible: Sync error and Google Services framework force close with CM7

All of a sudden a couple days ago, Gmail on my rooted Incredible (running CM 7.1 and incredikernel) began acting sluggish, syncing poorly, and force closing. Soon thereafter I got a message reading Google Services Framework was not responding, followed by FCs of pretty much every app I tried to open: maps, market, voice, etc.
It happened once before due to an issue with Google Music sync. Turning that off, waiting a day or two, and resuming sync did the trick. This time I'm seeing sync errors with Gmail (on each of the 2 accounts I have set up), Contacts, and Music. All at different times. And nothing seems to solve the problem
I've tried seemingly everything to no avail.
Thus far I've: wiped Dalvik cache, wiped cache, rolled back to an old Nandroid backup, reinstalled CM 7.1, reinstalled GApps, reinstalled GMail app from the market, wiped all data and cache from Gmail/Google Services/Contacts/Contacts Storage/Calendar/Calendar Storage, and ultimately did a full factory reset through Recovery.
After reinstalling CM 7.1 + GApps last night, things seemed to be OK, but I'm back to everything FC'ing today. If I have sync turned off, I can use the phone. But even then, my wifi/radio icons in the status bar are permanently white.
Any ideas? I don't seem to have any corrupt contacts. And setting up a one-time sync of each Gmail account (including contacts and calendar) didn't seem to be any harm. Only thing I can think is if my Titanium back up had something corrupt in it. I did restore that (apps only, no system data) after factory reset.
Thanks in advance for any help
Are other apps syncing correctly? I'd try a fresh start WITHOUT restoring anything through titanium.
Thank you.
Is it possible to determine which files backed up through Titanium might be causing the issue (or otherwise try to prevent against this down the road)? Alternately, after a full wipe/restore through Nandroid, is it possible to restore individual apps from a batch Titanium back up?
I know it seems to be specific to Incredibles that the typical wipe of calendar/contacts/gmail doesn't get rid of Google Services Framework FCs... so hoping to be sure all bases are covered.
Thanks again!
Yes, you "can" restore apps in titanium but have to be careful. It seems like most people don't have problems restoring just apps. Some are even OK with app+app data. Its NOT recommended to restore system data, especially if you're going from sense to AOSP or vice versa. Personally, I redownload my apps fresh from the market, using the automated Google restore or the web market, which you can download apps straight to your phone from. I've never run into any problems doing it this way.
Sounds like my GFs problem too, except the FC'ing happens once and a while and I have to format the whole phone to fix it.
My Incredible with CM7 is having the same problems
I was using an older CM7 nightly which had been stable for several months.
Out of the blue, all my google apps start crashing, as well as the framework.
Force closes EVERYWHERE.
I loaded the latest nightly, and rebooted. Same problem.
Had some trouble with Titanium Backup destroying the functionality of my home button along the way... so I started from scratch (as much as possible):
Wiped the Delvik Cache, Formatted the Cache, Wiped the Data.
Installed newest CM7 and gapps from cyanogenmod.
Ran "Fix Permissions".
Reverted back to the included ADW.Launcher instead of the paid version I previously had.
Manually installed a skeleton set of apps, and used titanium backup only to restore data on a handful of apps that really needed it.
It was stable for a day, then the same force close issues with all my google apps and the google framework.
Rebooting the phone seems to help temporarily, but I hate having to reboot my phone twice a day.
I've been updating to new nightlies every day now, hoping that one of them will finally fix this problem.
Do I need to flash a new radio, perhaps?
What could I be missing?
When you do a fresh install, wipe system and boot as well data/factory reset. Also, try downloading and installing apps from market, not titanium (restore nothing from titanium). Your radio should be a 2.15 series, but also shouldn't cause this.
Found this thread looking for my answer and found a solution somewhere else, just as an FYI here:
The strange thing is, I'm NOT out of space. My SD card and internal memory have plenty of room. Then I remembered: The Incredible only has about 300 MB of application storage partitioned. Cyanogen seems to work around this problem, EXCEPT for apps from the Marketplace. They will still say there is not enough space. Other install sources (raw apk, amazon, etc), work just fine.
I remembered that I installed Peggle from Amazon yesterday, which was an 80 MB download. I also remembered I couldn't re-install Angry Birds that day because the Market said I was out of space.
So! I uninstalled Peggle and a couple more large apps I don't need, turned all my syncing back on, no DB I/O errors in LogCat, no force closes, no nothing!
So here's my diagnosis:
-HTC Incredible only partitions ~300 MB for applications+data
-Cyanogen lets users install MORE than 300 MB of applications+data
-Android services (such as market and sync) don't understand Cyanogen is doing
-Android services fail gracefully (like market), or not so gracefully (like Sync) when you are out of 'storage'.
-Making sure you have some "free" space in your /data/data/ folder (I have about 30 MB) causes these force closes to stop.

[Q] Cannot save attachments

Hello,
I'm currently running the 4.4 rooted deodexed stock Rom downloaded from the developers section. It worked fine for about a month after I installed it (using the recommended recovery, full wipe etc.), and then I ran into the 'process.android.acore stopped' process which rendered the phone unusable. Based on what I read online it seems that the only option was to perform a factory reset which is what I did.
Since that point, any application that needs to download (or upload) files, has been unable to do so. I first noticed it in WhatsApp where the images send to me showed up blurred and when I clicked and tried to download them I would get an error that the download failed. Sending an image would generate an error as well. Looking further I noticed that none of my email apps (outlook.com, Touchdown, Xfinity etc.) is able to download any attachments either.
I tried to wipe and reinstall the Rom, as well as formatting the SD Card and internal memory, but when I reinstall the apps I mentioned or restore them using Titanium I get the same behavior. The errors do not indicate what hte root cause is, but I assume it has something to do with storage on the phone being corrupted somehow.
Any suggestions on how this might be resolved would be appreciated.
Resolved by upgrading to the N1 ROM.
