I just brought my girlfriend a wildfire s which she loved an everything was going great until she stopped being able to download apps from market place. I checked the phones memory an there's still 68Mb left.
You can use market as normal but when you go to download an app or update one the download starts then stops straight away. I swapped over our Sims but the problem stays with the phone.
Has anyone else had this problem or know what it is? Thanks in advance

I have an answer from the HTC Company:
The only solution is to do hardreset of your Phone.
Hello,
I´m having the same problem. Market ( 2.3.6) works fine, until I try to update my apps or download new one. When I try to download something somethings, it says that it´s starting downloadnding and in the same second says that downloading fails. Everything was ok before. I am googling it whole day but havent found nothing usefull...
I tried this last week n it worked n then i completly forgot to update the thread, so sorry for that n thank you to Kubel.

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
EVO APP store
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 ....
hi,to all!
I really need this help.
Since I started using the phone,I can never open Android Market App on my phone HTC Desire (Android 2.1).
please,help me how to solve this prob.
Every apps work finely.
Browser works fine too.
so,what went wrong?
thank to you all.
What error do you have FC??
Didi you try a hard reset??
Please provide more info.
I had the same issue all i did was reboot and it magically started working again>??
hope this helps
I hope someone has found a solution as NO ONE from GOOGLE seems to respond when I sent a support request.. I have not been able to download ANYTHING from the NEW market APP. I tried deleting the android_Secure, looking for the temp file people talk about, deleting cache and data etc. I have since FLASHED the OLD MARKET back. NOW, some APPS will install and SOME updates to apps will install. OTHER APPS and OTHER UPDATES will not install with the "install unsuccessful" message and OTHER apps will try to update but the phone will restart.
I see this listed all over on different forums and I am hoping someone has found a solution. It appears it is a wide spread issue. last night I was able to download a program from the market called FULLHDMI but today I tried to download SPRINT TOTAL PROTECTION APP and it downloads but doesnt install. Then I tried to update FULLHDMI and that worked but another app update didnt and finally a third app update rebooted the phone.
What is going on and how to resolve?? There has to be some kind of fix.
Thanks ....
Dang... you are still having issues? I wish I could help you more man. I have told you all I know to do That sucks!
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.
The android market just gives me that striped animation anytime I try downloading an app. Have tried clearing the market cache, google framework service cache nothing seems to work! Just the new EU firmware OTA and rooted and removed the bloat apps and downloaded script manager from the market without any problems. Then tried to download a busybox app...thats when the market just stuck on the stripped animation and its been that way with everything else I've tried from the market incuding updates to my apps. Please any help guys??

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
