This just happened about 24 hours ago to me. i noticed it says "unable to start wifi" also i think that affected my wireless tether.
My phone has the simple root done to it. I have Astro File Manager, ROM Manager, and like i said before i did the simple root with Unrevoked3. i am a mac user, i dont know if this second paragraph of information helps.
What should i do? should i just wait for the update to 2.2 that is supposed to be updated to my phone sometime soon? i tried restoring from an old backup and also tried to do a full system clean as well but still same thing. I am a newbie to this but i feel as though i have somewhat of a grasp on this.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated
You guys sure keep the mods busy around here.

that suggestion didnt help
I feel your pain, most responses around here aren't helpful... just negative... you'd think that if someone took the time to reply they'd just share... typical forum behavior though.
I can’t seem to find a clear answer on this… some say it works, others say it’s broke.
*watching in hopes someone can help*
yeah i am just hoping i get the 2.2 update soon and it fixes it. so i am guess i am gonna have to wait until then and then take it from there. unless someone has some ground breaking suggestion. cause, i've been looking around and it seems like this is a problem thats been occurring as of recently.

I have sky raider 2.5.2 and my wifi keeps trying to connect then obtain ip address then disconnects and keeps trying all over again why please?
so since nobody gave me any good feedback i decided to take on the task like a blank canvas.
Step 1: Reinstalled original Kernel
step 2: Full Data/Cache Wipe
step 3: reuploaded all of my data from last backup...
it appears everything is working fine.WIFI works great!!! I need to double check wifi tethering though. if anyone is interested i can repost if tethering is working.
Hi,is anyone else having problem downloading apps via Market?I've got an unbranded,unrooted Froyo Desire and downloads were fine yesterday but for some reason unknown,Google Market has refuse to complete downloads.Is this issue general?Cheers

It is driving me crazy all day as well! I got the impression that it was because I installed a new ROM or because I added an EXT partition in Clockworkmod recovery. This was the first time I wanted to try A2SD and it drove me crazy all day not being able to download apps anymore...
Not over Wifi, not over 3G...
And now I have to conclude more people are having this problem today haha
OMG
Yer its killing me,
I need to download My Backup Pro
Just flashed rom and cannot restore nothing.
Just noticed the same issue, was trying to update the YouTube app and download failed. Have tried a factory reset and this hasn't worked. There is a list of possible fixes on the Google support forum, just search for marketplace fix.
Seems odd that several people are having the same issue on the same day, perhaps its a marketplace fault?
Yeah the market is not working properly at the moment.

Damn I need my apps!
Alright so it's not just me going nuts...
same for me. been all night. driving me mad.
Someone from an android forum website suggested the following quote and guess what?,it worked! :-
"I know its going to sound daft, but load up Google talk, sign in, and then retry. I had a problem with my Hero back in the day and that worked. My downloads are going through fine atm"

Market working again
Had the same issue all day yesterday. The Market is working again this morning.
Had the same problem last night. It seems to be working fine today.
Working for me too this morning, tired the Google Talk tip along with many others re: clearing out various caches but none seemed to work. Obviously a fault with the market place than our actual phones.
So is this a common problem then, as I've just recently flashed my phone to 2.2 on the JPM firmware. I was beginning to think it was this, but after I thought about it, it happened to me this morning while I was still running 2.1.
How annoying!
hmm it diden't work yesterday for me but this morning it worked. but now it dosen't :S
I was having the same problem and tried the talk app logging in method which had worked previously in similar circumstances, but this time didn't work yesterday. Later I cleared the cache for the market app via the settings menu and it worked immediately, but was slower than usual.
my unrooted 2.2 desire will not update or download new apps from the market either.
i was thinking it was a memory issue.... had some issues on ota rom upgrade recently and i needed to uninstall 'Google earth' to get it to work despite phone showing ample memory free.
Also I have had the problem since downloading 'voice search' or this could be a coincidence.
So my phone or marketplace fault?
Is everyone else able to download/install again now?
[SOLVED] This is not a market / memory / phone issue
Guys,
I was having this exact same problem and after doing a bit of searching on the internet I found a solution:
It's something to do with internal phone cookies / tokens. The market depends on two sets of data - the market app and "download manager".
You can fix this problem easily in the future if you force close both, and then clear the cache and the data from both from settings -> applications -> manage apps
The reasons signing into google talk would have worked is that it updated the internal token
It seems the time out is very brief - but this is indeed the issue and its fixed every time using this method.
As far as I can tell there is a bug on Android developers already registered.
Sorry Mate ... doesen't fix the problem for me
make sure you force close the apps, market and download manager. then clear the data.
click on your market download list to rebuild it too. then it should work
I had same problem on my desire, and I looked the way to fix it. On phones memory was just 8% of free space, and I erased some apps. On the end I concluded that phone can't download or update anything if it has less than 10% free memory space. After I erased some apps and on that way make more free space on phones memory I was easy downloaded and updated apps from market. I must say that I have non rooted phone.
I hope so that I help with my thread.
I can download free apps no problem but for some reason I can't purchase apps. I get a error message that says server error retry or cancel. Switching roms doesnt help. Anyone know why i am not recognized by the network

I read in another thread that Google was having server problems, so its not your phone. I'm sure they'll get it fixed pronto as this is losing them $$$!
Have you tried updating your credit card info? Sometimes that helps.

Other people I know have no problem at all. I cant get to payment screen. Not sure if I should call Tmo about it as I have rooted phone obviously. Never had this problem before though

Your credit card info is out of date... the same thing happened to me, I went into gmail from a browser and updated my checkout info somewhere in the settings... hope this helps

Actually it magically works again. It hasn't in three weeks, so i guess it was some network server issue, strange. Thanks peeps
G2 with ExtraHotSauce v0.2!!
Unfortunately, this is happening to me now!
Same exact scenario, same exact steps to remediate (switched roms, factory reset, etc), however, I still cannot get to the payment screen.
Anyone else have any ideas?
Yeah, i thought i did sumthin wrong and tried everything but in the end it came back magically after weeks. Strange ****. Just hold in there mate. The only thing I never did was call tmo
G2 with ExtraHotSauce v0.2!!
Fixed my problem:
My primary account was a google apps account and my checkout was a gmail. This worked fine up until mid january.
I noticed that checkout is available for google apps accounts now, signed into it using my gapps account, filled on credit card info, and everything is good now.

well if you are unrooted have u tried to take it back to sprint?....sounds like u could be in line for a replacsment......
the problem you are having is common as far s I know. it is not necessarily related to a phone problem.
It has been happening to me for a very long time and have actually replaced my phone twice because of it and the problem persists. I have found it is because of a low amount of ram. If you have a lot, or even a few programs that are running in the background It will happen more often. I discovered this because I have a program Tasker installed on my phone that kept notifying me I had low memory and soon after my phone would reboot itself. Web browsing, youtube, games.
since I have discovered this I have deleted some of the programs that were not necessary. Lookout was a huge ram hog. if you have a lot of widgets running the likely hood of your phone rebooting is more likely.
You can check your running services by going to Menu - Settings - Applications - Running Services.
There you can see what is non essential and therefore delete, or just live with the rebooting.
I have deleted some of the programs and the frequency of the rebooting is far less.
Hope the info helps.

Hi everyone, please people don't mess with our friend, his english is very good, and understandable, by the way are we allowed to type the "damn" word?, dain, it is very smug to correct someone else when he just express very well, besides someone with his problem we should get his feeling.
BTW Exactly just check how many apps you just dont need and uninstall them.

Hi all,
I got my Nexus Prime today. I'm quite impressed, but it has a problem that's driving me mad.
When I first turned on my handset and entered my Google username it tried to download all the old apps from my previous Android handsets - I didn't ask it to nor did I want it to! Anyway, this failed part way through and none of the apps actually installed.
Since owning this device a few hours ago I cannot install anything through the Android market at all. I keep getting told that the download failed due to an error, but nothing further.
I've tried rebooting the handset but nothing appears to be able to be downloaded.
I can download from other sources, for example I downloaded the Swype installer and that installed fine, from the Swype website (Swype states it's not compatible with this handset!)
I'm not sure if this is a general bug or if there's something wrong with my individual handset but it would be interesting to see if anyone else has this problem?
Hi I had this problem too, unfortunately clearing cache and data from Market doesn't do anything (at least for me), I had to do a factory reset, worked for me and my friend who also had the same problem.
Damn, after an evening of customising my handset I was hoping not to have to do that.
So it appears we've discovered an issue with this handset.
Yep, that fixed it.
Annoying though..............

The way to avoid that is by skipping the initial guide and then att your account in settings instead. I agree that they should just ask you instead but the above way has worked ever since that feature was intruduced in 2.2.
Sorry for the bump but I'm having the exact same issue.
Just rooted the phone and after all apps were restored I tried downloading apps and keep getting that error.
I already did a factory reset several times and nothing. Just tried skipping the setup and adding my google accounts later but I'm still getting the same error :X
Anyone has any idea how to fix this problem? Do I have to return my phone?
It's been driving me crazy..
there's a Nexus Prime?

I seem to have managed to fix this now. I popped my sim into my old android phone, I noticed that the apn settings being used on old phone are different to those GN has setup by default for my network provider. I just copied those through to the new phone and market works again . Hope this helps someone.
Having the same issue also. I'm on Telus in Canada and the APN settings are the same on my old phone. I have done a factory reset and am still having this issue. Please help!
Are you guys rooted? If you are it could be the ROM your using?

Or just let it restore, and wait. It can take hours, let it do its thing. By tomorrow will be working again.

You are right. It's the weirdest problem I've seen but somehow it just fixed itself.. Apps install fine now (too bad I didn't know that before doing a million factory resets and deleting my settings)
Figured it out. I had to clear the proxy address in my apn settings
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
seems my Service Provider's settings where blocking downloads esp the Proxy... hmmmm
I've had this problem since yesterday, Market wont download over wifi or data network, messages 'Error while processing payment' or '... could not be downloaded due to error'
I'm running a stock GSM nexus and have tried clearing the market data and rebooting but no luck, I'd rather not have to do a factory reset if I can avoid it.
Any ideas anyone?
