Hello
I'm new to the scene, yet i learn fast.
I searched many times this issue if it was custom rom related, but without concrete answer, and i can't post in development forum, so here goes.
Installed all correctly with CM 7.2 and latest patch from phiexz, with a2sd working correctly.
My problem is that certain apps, become stuck in starting download in market.
I can download google maps, gmail, handcent, dolphin, etc... but for example, i can't download handcent portuguese language pack, spirit fm, x construct...
I tried many times reinstalling the rom, the updates, gapps, wiping data, dalvik cache. I tried clearing the market and download manager cache/data, with no avail.
Still those particular apps refuse to be downloaded. After i press install, the bar shows up and says "downloading", and doesn't develop from there.
Any possible solution?
Thanks in advance

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

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 am running CM 7.1.0 RC1 plus gapps-20110613, and it has been running fine. But now, out of the blue, Google Maps, Navigation and Car Home has disappeared. I swear I didn't uninstall them myself.
Also, when I try to install Google Maps from Market, the download icon appears briefly in the notification bar, and then disappears and the download stops without explanation.
Does anybody know how to fix this? I guess clearing and resetting everything and reinstalling the ROM and gapps will fix it, but then I have to do all the tedious setup work again.
Dont open threads everywhere..u already ask this in the desire general section
Try the usual things..reboot..try install again..try clear market data..reboot..retry..sometimes the market seems have this kinds of problem (even if rarely)..also ensure to have enough space on data
Something similar happened to me, I couldn't not install with wifi becasue my sim had been blocked
Was updating to the latest cm7 nightly from the latest Miui nightly. I don't have any custom kernels or anything. I opened rom manager, found the file, selected wiped everything and rebooted. it installed fine BUT it did not prompt me to log into my gmail account or take me to the market to install gapps. In fact, I didn't even have a market
I tried syncing my gmail manually through settings but it setting unable to connect to server, even though I have perfect 3g. I then downloaded the market apk but when I loaded it I couldn't log in either. I was on cm7 for a long time. I don't know why this is happening now. I tried flashing previous nighties like #133, 121, etc etc
I'm now back on Miui after endless times of trying to flash cm7. Miui is fine and all but I really want CM7 again.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
I had the same problem, you need to download the Gapps zip from the cyanogen thread on this site then you will have the market and gmail.
Hey everyone. I really am stumped to a solution to this problem. Before posting to this forum, I took the effort to look up answers on Google, and even XDA-devs forums. But it seems nothing worked. This are the things I've done before posting help in the form of a thread.
- I tried the disabling and reenabling the downloads manager. This is the very first troubleshooting I did. Didn't work..
- Tried clearing data and cache of Gapps. I did all of them individually. Nope, didn't budge either.
- One of my friends advise me to wipe dalvik cache and also the cache. Also didn't work. I tried factory reset. Gapps still refused to function normally.
- After factory resetting twice, I reflashed my Cyanogenmod 10.2 and the respective Gapps that worked with it. I still cant' sign in despite creating a new account and trying to sign in using the new Gmail account.
- Finally I downloaded Paranoid Android 3.99 and the respective Gapps that worked with it. Flashed the Paranoid Android 3.99 and the Gapps. Nah, nothing seems to work at all!
The problem is just with Gapps. I can't sign in to apps that needs my Gmail ID to be used. An important app for e.g. Playstore.
I don't mind losing my data, but the inability to access PlayStore and not being able to redownload my apps is highly annoying.
I'm able to access the internet, everything is normal except the Gapps. I really don't know what is wrong..
Please help! I've attached the screenshot that is consistently showing the same error throughout the whole process I was troubleshooting.
Did you try flash Samsung Stock Rom via Odin? Try it and look if it works.
So i am at a bit of a problem here and i cant figure it out.
I have installed both CM11 from 04/24/14, and tried the 4/08/14 Experimental build, both with the latest GApps zip file for CM11 from
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
The install seems to go fine, CM11 works, i can get wifi, connect to google account, gmail, internet, hangouts everything works..
Except Play Store...it crashes every time. Ive tried everything i can think of, those things include
Run the installed one from Gapps, it starts and i can see the initial disclaimer i have to accept then it crashes.
Download Google Play store apk and push it via ADB install, doesnt load.
Use GAppManager, the instant i select a version of GApps to install it crashes.
Try flashing an earlier version of GApps(For ICS) from KFFAide, doesnt work..
Go into Apps, find Google Play store that comes from the flashed GApps and clear its cache...
Ive tried flashing just CM11, booting it, then going back into TWRP and flashing GApps
Tried clearing dalvik/system and every other TWRP wipe except internal
Im really out of ideas...any help would be great nothing i do seems to do it...
I also tried flashing back to a version of 10.2 Experimental for KF HD but it just fails immediately when i try.

Try the GAPPS from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 find which ones you want to use and then choose goo as the download place. Then get a slightly older Gapps. I'm using a set from 1-23-2014 and have had zero issues. They will update anyway so having today's 0 day Gapps is not a huge deal. If you want mini Gapps, here is the link http://goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/roms/gapps-mini/older versions

I've been using the latest GApps ("stock" experience) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 and it works great. It will error out some apps the first time with a notification that you must update Google Play Services to continue. Sign in and update Google Play Services through the store and everything works like a champ.
A bonus of using the PA GApps package (if you want all those apps at all) is that they install to /system and don't use up as much /data space. Maybe not an issue for many, but every little bit helps right?
Keep in mind that the "stock" (i.e. Nexus-esque) package will remove the AOSP Browser, Messaging, and Keyboard. As long as you're good with Chrome, Hangouts, and Google Keyboard, this (again) saves you storage. If you prefer the AOSP apps, read the thread for how to keep them or install one of the other packages from the thread.
It turns out the issue is unrelated to Google apps, ANY application i use and try to download with will crash.
Try to grab an attachment from Gmail, crash
Try to download a file via Chrome, crash
Try to download via Play store, crash
I have no idea what the hell is causing this ive checked my Download and Downloader apps they are both running, ive tried restarting them, disabling them, and many other things...
At this point how do i return my Kindle to a "Stock" Kindle Fire HD as if i bought it from the store?
I may need to return it, im wondering if this is a hardware issue? Doesnt make sense though because everything else seems to work, i can go view internet stuff so the wifi isnt bad, and i can copy files to it via USB so the storage isnt bad...
