I know there is someone who has encountered this problem. I know its mostly Google's retarded faulty programming that is causing this and I've Googled it and I still can't find a solution. I cleared data and cache, reboot it, accept terms, yet when I try to buy an app, I still get the same problem. I've had this happen before. I'm on the OTA Gingerbread Plus ROM.

Goto ur Google account on PC & make sure it sees ur device

I did and under dashboard it shows my device under"Android device"and I'm still having the same problem. I can't even purchase a comic through the Marvel app

I have to ask, is a valid credit/debit card attached to your Google account?
Is it possible your bank halted purchases stemming from the android market?
I have two, but when I try to set the other in default I have the same problem. However when I purchase from there actual website I can do that. I would be ok with that if it weren't for the in app purchases

I remember someone having this problem before, can't remember if they had to uninstall market & reinstall or just fix permissions.

I tried uninstalling the market updates, but I'm still having the same issue. I even created another gmail account and added my cards and I'm still getting the issue. Could it be the ROM or my phone?
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
Most likely rom, what aru running.
Maybe try reflashing gapps?

I think it might be the ROM. I talked to Android Market support. And I was able to sign in on my mom's phone and bought an app. Here is the ROM I'm using.

Yep its the ROM. I went back to the regular OTA gingerbread backup and I didn't get the error message. I'm going to see if there is a solution to the ROM I want to be on though
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda premium
Gotcha, glad you were able to figure it out. If it helps, you should contact Jermaine151 and let him know of your issue. I want to say that was an anomaly since Stock Plus is a popular rom.
All in all, glad the issue is resolved.
Well it will be when I get the market he'll put in the post so I can flash it. But I'm glad its not my phone lol

I have evo running cm7 someone hacked my phone they got my txt msgs and forwarded them. I always have my phone. How can I find out how they did this and how can I prevent this.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
OK, well it really isnt possible to remotly hack a phone unless you installed an app that let somebody do this. So, two questions, what have you installed recently, and how do you know somebody hacked your phone?
Well really nothing and I also get 10 to 15 blocked calls a day I have Mr number blocker installed to block these but somehow some get through to my voicemail. The messages were saved and the whole thread was forwarded. Also pictures get forwarded and phone makes calls by itself
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Sounds weird.
Full wipe and/or factory reset just to be safe. Probably not a good idea to use any backups from the infected rom.
LBE Security is an app for free on the market.
It'll prompt you if an untrusted app tries to do anything malicious like that.
Swyped from my Htc Evo using XDA App.
How does he know that they were forwarded.... probably someone was messing with your phone
With adb you can use the following to find out what all is running, whatever is doing it should show up on there
Code:
adb shell ps
I always keep my phone on me. I know they were forwarded because my ex got pic and messages and I did not send them thanks guys

check your apps through TB or manage apps and see what is all on your phone, maybe your ex or someoene installed something on your phone to forward texts.. i had a ex try and install a app on my phone (cant remeber its name), this app was suppose to be hidden and only accessable by hiting some numbers on the dial pad and hitting send.. But i noticed right away somethign was weird in my phone (it was acting real slow) and i looked in applications and manage apps and found it and uninstalled it..
Looked at my apps, saw nothing weird

If you're on of those people who believe your phone can get hacked I'd suggest lookout security or avg free antivirus to ease your mind.
Yea, I find it hard to believe someone hacked your phone JUST to send pictures to your ex girlfriend. Are you sure you didnt get drunk and send them yourself? Or let your friend borrow the phone?
I don't drink and its happening well thanks anyway I guess I wont find a solution here
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA Premium App
Are you sure someone didn't sign in to your Sprint picture mail acct online? I think they can forward from there. Also if you always use the same password, they can dial your number and access your vm and forward them etc

This problem had been bugging me for a while and im just interested if anyone else is having the same problem.
When checking out apps on the new market i can only view images 1,3,5 and since on. If there is only 2 preview images i can only view preview one.
This never happened on the old market place. Its only since the new market appeared.
Is there anyone else having this problem.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
That's why IMO its better to roll back to the previous version.
Settings->market->uninstall updates
The "freeze" the market updater with Titanium Backup, and you can stay on the old market for as long as you want...

Hi,
I did that, its working but for some apps, for some the old way like not showing the images in the even # screens.
I have the same problem
So its not just me than.
I would roll back but I've got used to the new market now.
I'm sure they know that people are having thus problem and will fix it soon.
Or maybe not.

I had the sand problem , the market was not collecting cache . But this will automatically get solved in a day or so.
A co worker copied a root explorer apk to my phone, I installed it but my conscious got the best of me as I do not believe in stealing so I decided to buy it but I can't buy it because it says already purchased. Any way to correct this?
Did you try deleting the original apk and then try purchasing? Not sure if it will work or not.

Well, you could contact the maker of the app and explain the situation. Maybe pay for it through PayPal or something.

Yeah I would contact the maker of the app and explain what happened.
Honestly ... I didn't pay for root explorer at first either... I got it from someone else as well..BUT I loved it so much I deleted it and paid for the real one... ( I like to do it this way if the creator of the app doesn't offer a trial version)

U just need to uninstall it. If its installed to your system then you need to use root explorer to delete data and cache of the apk then delete the apk in system and reboot

nope it's locked in
it's a known issue with Google Tech support for Android Market
it's permanently burned into your account
they have no way to fix it yet
it also happens with other LEGIT Apps from Amazon and Getjar
i opened a complain ticket several days ago
I had the same with an app I had gotten from the Amazon market, but it hasn't been getting updates there, but has on the Android market. Well the Android market had it on sale for ten cents, so I tried to buy it there and have not been successful. I haven't really tried hard to get it though.

Uninstall it, clear all your caches, and go to your application settings & wipe data for the market. That usually works for me.
Does anyone know of any apps that may send international text messages to south korea. I noticed a charge on my bill and I started checking to see they went back to october. Sprint says they can't tell what the number is and I have downloaded several permissions apps from the market and the ones setup to send sms don't seem like apps that would be doing this. The charges aren't expensive but not knowing what is in these ghost texts has me worried. Thinking about odin back to stock and starting fresh. Anyone have any suggestions.

you might want to download a virus checker; maybe even odin/heimdall to start from scratch.

hello,
i have a epic 4g rooted, stock rom, seems that when i go to the market, it does not show the apps that i have installed and/or the ones that i purchased. additionally, if i were to delete one of these missing apps, they still dont show up in the market/google play. I have attempted to use various market enablers, but this has not solved my issue. on another note, and perhaps related, when i use titanium backup only one app shows setcpu, while previously it was working.
a lending hand would greatly be appreciated.
eric

Try wiping data in Google Play, and let it rebuild your list. You may need to use Titanium backup for this.

This has happened to me before, and wiping the data should fix it. I was able to do it without Titanium through the app manager.

You could try manually flashing a different Google play version and let it upgrade automatically. This happened to me once and that fixed it for me.

The problem is FRUSTRATING the "F" out of me with Google Play. I have a rooted and running AKOP epicmtd milestone 5.2 and when I go to download certian apps (even ones I already had before on my apps list), I get a black box that says "This device isn't compatible with this version" It's making me crazy because there are LOTS of apps that are pretty common that I use I cant download. Like Facebook for instance. But there are more important ones that I count on that I cant get back. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone solve this problem?? I sure could use some help cause Im bout ready to throw this thing at my annoying step daughter LOL! Thanks

Did you change your lcd resolution? That makes apps incompatible for your device.

Hey Kenny, I followed the directions to the LCD settings thing here, and now I cant get into Play at all! GRRR. it says something about background data needing to be enabled, but when I click on the option box to "enable" this background data, it takes me to "accounts and sync" and from there I dont know what the heck to do. Ive rebooted from there, Ive done this process over and over about 5 times and it's still not working and now some of my app icons have been changed to the little android guy. VERY confused now EESH!! Anymore ideas?
Thanks,
Ridge
Reflash the ROM..isn't that standard density? It probably wants you to enable gmail sync and sign in.
Sent from my PantechP4100 using xda premium
At the very top of accounts and sync in the settings you will see background data... check the box... background data has to run for the market to run
