Market issues after rooting and installing Virtuous Unity .. - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I have two issues to discuss, after rooting and installing a custom ROM on my phone (Virtuous Unity) ...
1) Even though I have added my Google account to my phone, have enabled syncing on it, and have also gone into the Market app on my phone, on the Market website, my phone is still not showing up ? How do I make my phone show up on Market website as well ? .. This helps in installing apps from your computer, which is easier if you want to install lots of apps ..
2) How do I enable the US Market on my rooted phone now ?
Thanks in advance for your help

Problems downloading from Marketplace on an Orange HTC Desire

I have just picked up my new Orange HTC desire (very nice it is too, apart from the Orange stuff that comes with it).
The problem I am having is that I am now unable to download any more applications form the Andriod marketplace. I was able to do this until the other day.
I found this (android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile-pulse-pulse-modaco-com/304562/download-unsuccessful/)forum which basically says that you need the gtalk service running.
I had disabled this the other day whilst messing around and I couldn't work out how to re-enable this. (Possibly due to the ORange branding stuff, not sure).
I found a link to the gtalk.apk in one of these forums, downloaded it and installed that. That got the gtalk service running again. however I am still unable to download apps from the market place, this is very annoying.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
try clearing the cache from the settings menu / applications / manage applications / download manager and then reboot your handset. This worked for me earlier in the week.
Thanks for the tip, I tried it but still no luck, any more ideas anybody?
Cheers

yeah, after updates, rooting, froyo.. etc..
i couldn't download apps as well.
Logged into GTalk and app downloads started working.

i dont think you need gtalk running to download from the market, im sure i have removed that app b4 and had no problems i can remember, what is the error you are getting? you have give us no info? is the download failing or the instalation? many problems with the market can be solved by going to settings/application/manage applictions, find market under the all tab, click on it then click on clear data, reboot your fone and try again ....

[Q]Web-based Android Market issue

(There are other posts around the forum about this, but none apparently directly related to Desire)
I'm using Oxygen 2.0 RC7 ROM with recommended radio, Oxygen HBOOT & S-OFF.
I've tried using the Online Market today, but not having much luck.
The apps I have purchased / installed show up in the market, but I am unable to install any new apps from here with the site claiming: "There are no android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account."
If I check the settings under "My Marketplace Account" no device is detected. The help only has 2 options;
1) Check your account login (done, correct)
2) open the market on the device (done & downloaded an app to be sure) - Still no dice!
Is anyone else having this issue with:
a) the same ROM / setup
b) a different ROM / Setup
Has anyone discovered a workaround?
Has anyone had the same issue with a similar setup but been able to correct it?
Has anyone had NO issues with the same/similar setup?
So many questions...
Appreciate any and all advice
No problems with oxygen, but since it only just launched give it some time. Probably just a bit busy because everybody is trying it out.

I have the same problem, but I'm using Leedroid 2.3d. In "My Account" it only shows paid apps and some free apps, which I have deleted a couple of month ago.
I haven't found a solution anywhere. But it seems others have got this problem too. And it doesn't seem to be related to the Desire or any specific rom.
Yeah, looking at the official blog post announcing the release, it appears this porblem is affecting stock ROMs also.
Waiting game!
similar issue here: LeeDroid 2.3d
I can see apps I installed before I rooted the phone, but no apps after that.
In the settings page I can see my phone and the "Last used" time stamp is today but for all the apps the latest time stamp is on the day I rooted the phone (the 3rd of January).
I opened a ticket with Google.
In the same boat - no devices found

I have exactly the same set up (but I'm with Telstra not Vodaphone).
From device - market access fine - and can even see my purchase history in my gmail account dashboard - www dot google.com/dashboard/
But no matter what I do, no device found on website.
Tried reinstalling oxygen (as I had installed the latest marketplace which isn't part of the standard RC7 release), but no help...
Would love to hear how to fix this!
Well, I don't quite know what to say... but mine...just....started working!
Maybe the roll-out has had some bugs or other issues? I dunno. Just checked back and it saw my device. Tried installing an app and it started pushing to my device immediately.
I guess you'll just need to hold on and be patient?
Cheers, Jeff

[Q] Android Market Problem after flshing to new ROM...Please Help!!

Good day everybody,
I'm running into a very strange problem, and it's my first time to see something like this!!!
From time to time, I'm used to flash my Desire with new ROMs to test them.
What happened this time is strange, after I flash my desire to StarBurst ROM using the normal procedures
(Wipe every thing, then flash from sdCard through recevory)
As uesual, the flash ends deleting all apps and games, so I have to download them agin from the market.
The strange thing is that when I enter the market, I can't see most of the apps and games that were installed on my phone before flashing to new ROM!!
I thought that the ROM is not ok, so I flash again the same ROM my phone used to work with which is the LeeDroid (Froyo 2.2), but the same problem in the market!!!
Right now, I can't find;
Angry birds (all 3 games)
Advance Task Manager
arcMedia Player
eFile (File manager)
.
.
.
.
etc
(allmost most of the apps and games that were installed in my phone before flashing new ROM)
I decided to enter the market website through the browser and try downloading directly from there, and I found under my market account all the apps and games I downloaded!
I noticed that all of them has the download button in blue color instead of green and it shows downloaded! and even if I click on it, nothing starts to download!!!
I'm looking for your help regarding this problem.
Thanks in advance
wrong section. this should be posted in q&a not in developement
Maybe contact Google and ask them to divert some of the Billions of $'s they throw down the drain subsidizing people who want to upload "dancing dog" videos to fixing their notoriously flaky Android market
Try flashing google apps seperately it might be corrupted

I can heartily recommend you just try flashing again and then setting up again. Worked fine for me on the 3rd try.

[Q] Market problem

Yesterday i flashed the latest version of the runny Rom and everything seemed fine until i tried to download apps from the market. i cant download anything, market keeps showing that its going to start downloading but the progress bar never moves, i force close Market app and the progress bar doesn't dissapear from the notificacion bar.
i thought i t was the rom so i restore to my previous rom, and the market wasn't working either.
i've tried every solution i've seen on this and other boards (clear data/cache from market app, start gtalk when downloading, clear date/cache from every gApp, uninstall market updates )
i've wipped everything on recovery and installed 4 diferent roms (1.0 2.1 3.0 and 3.5) i've done everything i can think of, and my market still doesn't download anything.
i really hope some could help me.

im gonna try that, and report how it went.
no luck with the fix.apk, im trying to de-root and re-root to see if it helps..
still no luck, please i need help, i've just went back to stock, s-On, and market still not working, then unrevoked, s-Off, custom rom, market still broken. i've tested the the next roms with no luck:
-Community Rc5
-Runny Revolution v1
-Incredible HD V1.0.4 (and with the updates to 1.0.5)
-Miui 1.9.3
-CyanogenMod 7.0.3
-Stock 1.0
-Stock 2.1
Kernels:
- Stock
- Latest Gingertiny
Hope this info could lead to a fix to my problem.
Ok, i think i've found the culprit, i've just tested to download only on 3g/1x and downloads start and finish, on every rom, but when i try to download through wi-fi, downloads never start.
i've checked other sources on the web and apparently its a common issue with all kinds of android phones not just my inc, and some people are able to fix it unblocking some ports on their routers, but i've done that with no luck..
but i have a hunch that my problems started when i installed the latest beta of gingertiny, the one that enables 802.11n... hope with this extra info someone could help me, im really desperate.
Thanx to the couple of people who actually tried to help, if anyone runs into this problem with the market i've found the solution, its not your phone (rom, mods, radios) its actually some kind of issue with your router.. i've just factory reset my router, and the downloads from market started to work again.. hope this helps someone in the future.
updating..
i've found a temporary fix for this!
Yesterday after i reseted my router i though my problems with the market where gone, but they started a couple of hours later.. so i asumed that i wasn't my routers fault.
so i started again testing roms, kernels, unroot, reroot, and bam! found a fix.. not the best one but so far i can download anything from the market..
what i did was:
1.- unroot with PB31IMG.zip (stock rom from last year)
2.- connect to wifi during initial setup
3.- login to my google account during setup
4.- open market app (version 1.82 i think)
5.- download any app (wait what? yes im downloading)
6.- market updates itself and i stop being able to download anything.
so it seems obvious that the culprit was the market, so i freezed "market_updater.apk" to stop the market from autoupdating, uninstall updates and create a backup of that markets verison (1.82)
now im running community rom with that market and everything its perfect, hope this helps someone in the future.

[Q] Downloading non market apps

Hello everyone, I just recently purchased the LGOG and am wondering if there is a way to download non market apps without rooting? Basically i wanted PDAnet on the phone and am unable to download it. I looked in the settings and under developer options. I really like this phone and didn't want to root it. Thanks in advanced for your help.
Found it sorry it was under security.
