Maybe switching ROMs or re-flashing your current ROM will work. Give it a shot, backup your apps of course.

Are they apps that you have ever had installed? Try installing an app that you have never had installed and see if that works. If it does, then use a file explorer (I use astro), and see if there's anything in the folder titled ".android_secure" (without the quotes of course) on your sdcard. I actually had this problem before, and there was some left over app data that was interfering with the installation I guess

geez was hoping this would work but I just checked my astro application and checked android secure and all directories are empty. also this is a problem with applications that I ready have that need to be updated and brand new applications I am downloading from the market... I just get a triangle with an ! in the middle of itfor each application that did not successfully install... and this is a brand new problem haven't done anything different been running the newes t fresh for months now

What is your memory situation?
Froyo apps2sd ? A2sd ?
GO into recovery and clear cache and Dalvick cache.

Try wiping the market data this happened to me couldn't update or install anything and it worked

Did you install your previous apps from the market or did download apk's then install them? Try Settings>Applications>Manage Clear market cache and data that might work like the other person said. Check your memory. What rom are you using? Try backing everything up then go do a factory reset and then setup up your google account that's what I did when that happened to me months back and seemed to work. Hope I helped

Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

no i use ''my backup''
thanks for the help

Does it have an option to connect your apps with the market if not made a backup and just download them it should be fine and np

I'm having a similar problem. After the 2.33 update, it FCs when I chose "My apps". I tried downgrading to several different versions, cleared data/cache, wiped cache/dalvik, but no joy. Now, after I press "accept" on initial start, it FCs. Any help?
Thanks.

Update: I used TiBu, wiped everything again, still no joy. I ended up deleting the Market app from Manage Apps. This left the /system/apps version of Market intact, but unavailable to launch. I rebooted the phone, the /system/apps Market became available in my apps list, and it worked. It then automatically updated to 2.33 again and now all is well.

I had similar problem with my htc evo with cm7 rom after flashing a google add on. As soon as you clicked maket it would try to open but then close right away,I tryed to wipe market data didnt work. Did as you sudgested and wiped catch and dalvik catch and reinstalled rom and the previous add on and no problems after that. Thanks

Question I already had a add on flashed after installing cm7 and tryed flashing another one over the other add on. Is that why I had problems with market?
The main reson I tryed flashing the second add on was After flashing the first one I did'nt have a voicemail app. The voice mails would come in a text with a link to hear the message.
Does anyone know a way to get my voice mail back? Thanks

Downloading from android market question (easily the weirdest problem you'll see)

Hi XDA, long time lurker, first time poster.
So I rooted my droid incredible yesterday evening. Everything was dandy- I installed CM7. However, this afternoon i stopped being able to use the market application - it would require a force close - both the market app and downloader. I decided to wipe everything, reinstall, and re root and do it again. I installed CM7 again, market wouldn't work. I then did a full wipe, factory reset, cache reset, davlik reset, and installed the newest nightly build of CM7. Still couldn't download from app marketplace.
I now just installed SkyRaider 4.0. I still can't download from the google marketplace on my phone. I can, however, install from the amazon app store, and when I use google's web install interface I can install the google marketplace apps from there (this also works for appbrain).
--I can use the google marketplace and appbrain marketplace on my computer, just not on my phone --
Clearly, the default android marketplace app doesn't work on my phone (and consequently appbrain as it goes through that).
How can I fix this?
Thanks,
Brian

Any other apps not working?

Have you tried fixing permissions?

Reboot into Clockwork recovery, there is a fix permissions options. If I remember right it is in the advanced section. Run it. It will not hurt anything it will just run script that will run through the files and fix the permission settings on them.

Fixing permissions didn't eliminate the problem.

Did you download the Google apps zip with cm and flash it too? You never mentioned that part. Might be the problem

OMFGB, Slayher#27, CWM 3.0.0.8

applications/all applications/market/clear cache - this should fix your problem

did the post above fix your problems

superuser force close

hey guys superuser force closing alot on me im so-off.6.98 boot
it closes then sometimes its fine, titanium backup wont find root then it does seems very strange any ideas?

I also have the same problem

ok i deleted superuser 3.04 and installed 3.02 seems to be working ok.
heres zip if anybody needs,

Anyone know why the update crashes?
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium

I had updated SU and had the same issue but flashed the zip file above in recovery and it sorted it, so thanks for that. Currently using version 3.0, are there any advantages or new features of the new version?

Did anybody try clearing data for su via manage applications? Usually works for this
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

yeah i tried it dan , didnt really help me much.

A new update came out last night, does that fix this?
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

maybe somebody can try mines ok at the mo. and if its working for u why update!

I had problems with 3.02. I then tried to uninstall it and flash 2.3.6.3.
No joy.
Then again the market update for 3.02 showed up and I installed it.
No go.
I went to running apps and cleared data for super-user.
This solved all problems and since then I have updated via market to super-user 3.04 and all is well.
Why use old versions when newer is available

Thanx gerhard i had the same problem and your solution was the best.
I got FC with busybox but after i cleared the data everything was ok.
Thanx again.
-------
Edit : i had to clear data again...it seams i have to clear data every time i want to use it with another app.
An i'm using su 3.0.5

3.0.5 is buggy as all get out and causing all kinds of problems. Makes me wondering if the dev is trying to get people to buy the elite version?
Sorry for the "conspiracy theory" here, but there's been a bunch of SU updates, several of them FC all the time.
I've gone back to 3.0.2 per the zip on this thread. Gotta have my wifi tether working.

Use super user 2.3.6.3
Use super user 2.3.6.3 it solved all my problems.

I read somewhere that if you uncheck the "remember" option, it won't force close. Let me know if that works

I had the same problem with Super User and wasn't able to solve it . I tried cleaning data and then su started up without fc, but it couldn't get root access. So I just wiped everything via recovery (Titanium Backup before that) and reinstalled my current rom. That solved my problem.

I think the latest update fixed the force close error.
edit: No, I hadn't updated yet... my bad, I thought it did.

I am fairly sure 3.0.6 fixed it, I updated it and haven't seen any errors since.
Also updated the binary to 3.0.1 in the Superuser app preferences.

so pi$$ed off with superuser !!,it either force closes or binary will not update ..... i have installed several zip files that are supposed to fix it,tried the one from the market numerous times !!!
i have just got my rom working great,now i cant reset my voltages cant access titanium back up or rom manager.. only one option left full wipe and flash rom again ...... bugger ...... i have tried everything ....

I have the same problem, and i must do wipe all.
Know is working.

Having some issues with last three updates of task aokp

I can't seem to get Google now to work anymore. It keeps crashing as soon as I give it a voice command.
For some reason now, it seems like my phone lost compatibility with lots of apps. I can't update top the latest versions of the apps and download apps directly through playstore app. On my laptop, the playstore site says the apps are compatible and "downloading" but I get nothing on my phone.
I ve done a clean install of the latest update and cleared data for the individual apps that I've had problems with but I'm still not seeing any changes.
Any idea what's going on here? Is this something everyone else is experiencing?
(Didn't want to post this in the Rom thread since these issues are not just about the Rom, i think)

I've been running his ROM for a long time and never experienced this issue... It might be your play store or gapps. I would download and flash his gapps again see if that fixes it.

Are you using a different dpi?
Sent from my SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2

It's the gapps that you flashed.. he posted an earlier build shortly after which fixed the issue (just have to update Google Search app in the Play Store). This was posted in the OP.
I'd probably fully wipe but at least system and both caches and reflash the latest ROM and gapps posted.

I am. I changed it by editing the build.prop file. but even if i change it back to normal dpi, i still have the same issues. i just did a clean install of 5.5.13b update and still having same issues. im back at normal dpi.
is there a way to fix this?

explain clean install. i would recommend wiping data cache, dalvik, & formatting /system, /data & /media then flashing ROM/gapps. completely fresh start. what recovery do you use and what device was the version for (d2att, etc)?

clear data from play store and google services framework after reverting to stock dpi. then find a multidpi play store and flash it. then you can freely change the dpi.
