Hi,
since I've rooted my phone and went for DeFrost/OpenDesire I'm unable to download any apps from the market. I've set the installation source to internal memory. I've tried to re-install the ROM, cleaning, wiping data/cache and basically everything around that. I'm even unable to download Apps with the original 2.2 unrooted STOCK rom now.
Any ideas?
What I did so far:
- Wiping the phone
- Formating the SD card
- Basically everything to default
- Installed FroYo 2.2.1 Pre-Rooted
And still I cant download apps from the market.
Please I am begging for ideas
try clearing market's data in "application" section of "settings"
does your problem include free apps? or paid only?
Hi,
did that.
Applies for paid and free apps
Apps Install Problem
Hi,
I've got kinda the same problem.
Got root phone with custom ROM (Neophyte) and download apps form market is fine but after they don't install and I still have the installing process running but nothings happens.
I've try to change ROM but in Cyamogen I don't even see the Android Market.
I have partitioned the SD card with Rom Manager to get APP2SD but I d'ont know if this is working. How to check?
Someone can help? Which ROM should I use to test if the market is Ok?
Can I put a HTC rom into my rooted phone?
I do have the feeling that my phone is not allowed to place the files somewhere it would need to. Does anyone know where files from the market are being placed when the download starts?
Update:
I found a solution. I need to disable the SD card and them I'm able to download files again. So I guess its some kind of app2sd problem?
And with defrost its not working anylonger.
GOD DAMNIT. This is driving me crazy
So even with a ext3 partition I'm unable to download these Apps. I've tried repair mode from ROM manager and he successful fixed everything - without a result.
If anyone has an idea please tell me. I'm unable to use my phone this way and I don't have any idea at this point. I just revoked everything going back to an unrooted HTC Desire EU 2.2 rom.
Its still not working. I dont get this.
SD card was formated, Phone was wiped - its in the same state as yesterday before I rooted it. So how the heck is it not working anymore?! Cant be its kinda hardware bricked or something ... ffs
PLEASE
I have the same problem. After creating the partion in rom manager I am unable to DOWNLOAD apps for the market but I can still install apk's from the memory card.
SOLUTION!!!
The solution is quite simple actually. Tried it on HTC Tattoo
Go to Settings>Applications>Managae Applications>Market and uninstall all the updates for Market and clear cache. Try Downloading Apps from Market.
Cheers!

Unable to download Apps on Market after I unlocked my Tmobile Vibrant
I'm also having the same problem after I unlocked my Tmobile vibrant.
If i reset my phone and go to apps market, Im able to download fine, but after closing apps market and opening it again and try downloading any apps, nothing happens. It says its "starting download" but nothing happens. It seems to be stuck at that "starting download" process. But if I reset my phone and go back to the Apps market and try downloading apps and everything will work temporary.
I tried going into settings---->applications----> manage applications----> clear cache---->reboot
Also tried going to Download Manager-Clear Data----Reboot
Also tried uninstalling updates for Apps Market.
Nothing helps.
Please help if you find a way to fix this problem.

I recently flashed the new Cyanogen mod 7 nightly and The new google apps. As I started to experiment with this rom, I noticed that i cannot download any market apps at all. Whenever i press download, the "downloading" notification would pop up for like a second or two and it would then disappear. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Did you try to clear data and cache for the market? That might help. It does not seem like a CM7 issue as it is working perfectly here.
Yeah I have tried that actually. Still the same problem..
Wipe all the data including both caches, flash the build and then flash the apps. Things are working fine with the CM7 builds since I use it. Maybe a radio update if your not up to date ish?
Same Issue
I'm having the same issue on my HD2 Typhoon Cyanogen 7. I was able to download apps from the market for about an hour, right after first launch - now (3 hours later), nothing. I don't have the ability to click 'clear cache' for the Market and I can't seem to download from the online market, either. I don't know whether I should try to clean-install Typhoon or switch to another ROM - or if this problem will just 'go away'. If anyone has further advice, or wants any info from my device, please send me a message.
Update: ROM Manager won't do anything, but I'm not too worried about that. Booting while holding 'Power' gets me to the Bootloader, from there I can get to the Clockwork Recovery. I tried 2 fresh wipes of Typhoon CM7 before throwing in the towel. Another ROM installed and I can download anything I want from the Market.
Ditto here. I installed on a full wipe and market is not working. Are you using wifi or 3g?

I have the same problem, i tried to solve it doing everything (uninstalling and reinstalling market, full wipe, re-flash the rom) but nothing.
I noticed that every time i re-flash the rom market works for a period but than gets stuck !
- download "zipsigner" from market
- select the new market apk (the one that didn't install and fc's)
- select "platform" as key/mode
- sign the file
the resulting apk can be installed as every apk
cc to c3k
wel then you are one of the lucky ones i have tried wipe cache wipe delvick cache reinstall nothing works

I have your same problem on DHD CyanogenMod 7 RC2 (uninstalling and reinstalling market, full wipe, re-flash the rom) but the Market don't work!
I got the same problem and solved it by simply wiping my device (Desire) again without flashing CM7 (RC1) again.

could you be more specific on 'wiping'? how did you do it? having the same problem here.
EDIT: reflashed rom and wiped data and cache. market is now working.
EDIT AGAIN: market only worked to download GAPPS eg gmail, youtube, google maps etc etc. when tried to download other apps, a prompt comes up saying "the process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly. please try again."
Hi,
Had the same problem, with cyanogen Mod 7.
First with stock (cyanogen) Market, then even after updating with the new market 2.3.4. Always the same, trying to connect and failure when downloading, no FC at all.
I just solved the problem by flashing again the radio 5.14.05.17 ! (I had this one before flashing Cyanogen and all the other communications were ok, except the market downloads so I didn't think it could come from there ...)
Hope it helps you
I simply solved this problem thanks Titanium Backup that takes back the Market (app+data). Obviusly you had had a backup!
EDIT: doesn't work...after reboot market doesn't exist... I've to rebuild it from TB every time.. that sucks
RE-EDIT: finally works!! I installed it from a backup and then I started it after flashing again gapps(if you don't have a backup you can unzip gapps.zip on pc then move the apk vending to the phone: install it with a file explorer) Then I entered my gmail username and psw(<--- important step) and now it works great! I've made also a reboot to test it.
Solved Problem
After flashing gapps, i had the same problem....
Try a restart - It worked for me!
Yeah, I have the same problem with my freshly installed, latest stable CM (7.0.3-desire). Not all downloads are affected, it's about a third to half of them. If I get the apk file in some other way, installing it works fine. It's just the download from the market server that stops after a second or so (or perhaps never even starts properly).
I've tried to clear market cache, tried rebooting, tried versions 2.3.3 and 2.3.6 of Market app, to no avail.
When you guys say "flash this" or "flash that", does that mean "update"?

i've manage to fix it.
first i backed up my SD card, partition it with ROM Manager, downloaded S2E from the market, check Download Cache, reboot. done. anything and everything can be downloaded now.
I managed to fix with re-flashing CM 7.03 and wiping data. For a couple of days it worked properly. Now from time to time it happens again and the only solution is restarting the phone. Probably I found a similar problem when I tried to install Cut the rope apk from my sd card, CM just did a warm boot. After a several try I restarted my phone and installation worked like a charm. Any thoughts?
what do you mean by using the term "flashing" ?
I am a noob and I am having the same problem too.
Code:
forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/20328-solution-to-unable-to-download-big-apps-from-the-market/
There is a solution on the Cyanogenmod Forums.
I just flashed back to CM 7.0.3 (came back from MIUI) and the market will start the download but I keep getting the DOWNLOAD IS NOT SUCCESSFUL error, I did a full wipe and cleared the cache and the market cache as well but nothing has worked. I really need help fellas, thanks in advance.
It occasionally does that, and the CM team is looking into it. Have you tried the newest nightly? Is this on 3G, wifi, or both? Can you try it on both if you haven't?
The weird thing is that I was on CM7.0.3 before I tried MIUI and never had a problem, but when I switched back to CM7.0.3 I started to have this issue. Anyways, I just tried downloading the apps on 3G and it worked so thank you for that, but I'm still trying to figure out why this happened to me ? lol.
Wait scratch that, spoke too soon I was able to download 1 app and then it went back to download unsuccessful, fml.
Try signing into Google Talk. I had this problem numerous times, and found out that Google's main solution is that one must be signed in to Google Talk or the Market will fail to download apps.
i am currently running stock, but when I get that error I have to move the app from my SD card to the phone.
Hey all,
Installed the RunnyMede 5.0 ROM by Sebastian15 the other day, The ROM although is very impressive, fast and such but there is one issue that I'm facing. Whenever I try to go to the market app using wifi, it gives a network error and says to either retry or close. Works fine on Edge but not on WIFI.
If any of you beautiful people have faced this issue and found a working solution, Pls share
Thanks!

Hi there I am having a similar issue. But not quite the same. I am updated to the latest market but am unable to go to myapps directory. Every time I click on my apps I am being given my google account and an option to brows apps and games.
All help is highly appreciated.
I think it has something to do with gmail not syncing on wifi.. they are the only two things not fine atm. I hope someone got a workaround this?
All of my other g-mail apps a synced : calendar ,contacts etc.
In the beginning of using this ROM and on first installation prior to moving back my apps everything seemed OK and I was able to access the market. I cleared the market cashe as well as my g-mail account but to no avail
I think I fixed it on my own. I reformatted my sd card, started from scratch, made the partitions etc.. did a full wipe, reinstalled, and now it works flawlessly.. Make sure to have a ext4 partition, i think that helps :S
Let me know if this works for you too.
I am with 1gb ext 4 partition. Will tru the A2SD++ version with a clean wipe. Hopefully it will fix it,other wise this is a brilliant ROM.

I don't have such a problem with a clean 5.0.
But did you try to flash market 3.3.11 from addons?
It was automatically added,mate. Running the latest version from several days and still the same issue and non of the installed apps get updated. I am waiting for Runny 5.2 to make another full wipe and clean install. I hope it will solve the issue.Thanks for the help any way.
i think you should download last version of market...

Did you try the route I mentioned? It works for me now, flawlessly.
I am with the latest market version ,but do not want to re-format the card. Simply will wait for 5.2 to be released if the issue continues will follow your steps ,mate.Appreciate the help.
Will be flashing 5.2 in a while.. will update then
Me too,but I solved it.
You may entering "setting">application>app management, then at "market" ,click it ,wipe the app cache , so you now run the app ,no more issue.
Try it and let us know, btw 5.2 works like a charm

Issue partially solved
Since i did the cahce cleaned on version 5.0 as well but forgot to mention it .Yesterday I made a full wipe and clean install on version 5.2. I set up the ROM and checked the market and it was running fine. Afterwords I restored my apps. with MyBack UP root and the issue reoccurred so I figured out it is from the back up. I used titanium to make the back up - full wipe and set up the ROM again.I restored my apps with Titanium the market works fine but the ROM itself does not recognize my returned applications in the myapps market list. However the original ROM applications are being recognized so I can live with that for the moment. If you have any suggestions I am open for them.
Hi all,
It seems the market is running slowly than the previous version and I read if you use setdns app sets on "dhcp/disable" the market is running very quickly than before. Change Dns.
if that's help....
Thanks.
Fred.
Thanks for the prompt will try it tonight !
I don't have any problems with runny Rom and market , but you'll try the new version 5.3 i think everything is ok there ...

Oh BTW I'm with Runny 5.2 with ad2sdx-1.0-RC01 Script Everything is fine here and verry smoothness Today (but i think later) I'll "Fix" my Rom with 5.3
As it turnes out it has something to do with backing up applications. Installed all in one version and returned all of the applications simply by installing them from the matket and it seems the problem is solved for the moment. Cheers and thank you for your help.

Done a restart ?
If it does not help: Because you are rooted, you should be able to delete the Android Market. You can get the AndroidMarket.apk from the net and reinstall it(Unknown Sources have to be checked). But before doing something fancy, you should do a BACKUP, with CWM or RZR.

Yeah several restarts. Just got an update, it appears the youtube app also gets stuck with the rotating circle...cant load the video. Cant help but assume these are related. And also I've tried this on both wifi and 3G, same.

This is strange indeed. If even the solution above doesn't help, I would recommend you to flash you ROM via ODIN. Usually it should replace the missing files, so this could work. Do a Backup as mentioned above.
BTW: But generally your internet works? (via Browser)

Yes my internet works fine. I actually cant do anything requiring a usb cable since I lost mine and wont be getting a new one till the weekend maybe. I actually tried some other things like clearing the cache partition in recovery (stock) and logging out of gTalk and relogging in which solved similar problems for people online. Just seems everything is fine...except the market cant connect and download stuff, and youtube cant connect and load videos...I feel its a google account problem surely but dont have a clue what to do. Thanks for your response all the same.
First......Ensure SD Card is properly seated, open phone and make sure of this!!!
Do these :
Settings/Applications/Manage
Applications/All/
Downloads/Clear Data.
Media Storage/Clear Data....

I cant quite explain what happened, but I fixed it. It had to do with a botched backup/uninstall of google books with TB. I tried to back it up but it seemed to just hang up. Then I killed TB in the Task Manager and restarted it. I realised a backup had been made for the older version(1.46) instead of the new version(1.52). Google Books showed up as a system app after my last FW upgrade and I updated it (through the market) but the update made the app unusable(FC everytime I start it). I ignored all that at the time since I didnt use it actually. Tried to remove it yesterday and I guess that set this whole mess in motion. Thanks to all
