Is anyone aware of or experiencing any problems with the android market?
I'm using a Stock UK Orange ROM. 25mb free internal space. Using Android market I can go through all the motions and tap install I get the message saying my item will be downloaded. The "downloading" bar appears and is animated, This happened last night. This morning the item had downloaded.
I thought that was the end of it but as I write this I've been waiting an hour for a clock widget to download.
Have also tried via appbrain but experience the same problem.
I can watch youtube videos and browse so I am online. Is there a hidden setting I might have misconfigured? or anyone else experiencing the same thing?

Since you have 25MB free, that is peculiar. Typically downloads get stuck in queue when space is low -- in which case you are getting a notification in the Notification Bar that you are "Getting Low on Empty Storage Space". In those cases remedy of course is to uninstall a few apps you rarely use. After you do that, the "Low on Storage Space" icon will clear, and the instant that it does, all of the downloads you had started -- but were all stuck in queue -- will now proceed -- instantly.
But in your case i don't know. Are you for certain NOT getting that icon notification? (just checking that's all)... Then this probably won't solve your case at all. THIS POST: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7663366&postcount=17
No worries.
The only thing in my notification bar is the icon for advanced task killer, and 1 Gmail notification.
I've uninstalled a couple more apps but that still hasn't forced a download. This has only happened in the past couple of days and it crossed my mind that google might have been tinkering, but i've read nothing of the sort.
Just been to the shop and back and in those 5 mins Tajam (the clock widget from my OP) has downloaded... I've just added a pinball game, but it hasn't downloaded...
Is it at all possible that an application has reserved space? As in I might have 25mb free but some app has reserved some of the free space on my handset?
Nobody else had this issue then?
Any thoughts on a solution? would a hard reset solve this?
Try to:
- start your google-talk-app
- use the menu-button to open the menu and sign-out!
- restart the google-talk-app
- use the menu-button to open the menu and sign-out!
usually, after the 2nd or third time you do that, the download-process begins...
edit: you should notice that the log-in-process of the google-talk-app takes some time, seeing the spinning wheel-symbol on the top-right... just ignore it, start the app, wait 5 seconds and sign-out, repeat...
Thanks for the reply but I dont have google talk installed.
I'm thinking a hard reset might be my only option but it's a pain, and now difficult to download any backup software.
Found this thread http://www.google.tm/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=57b5e3efa7477b50&hl=en
Started by a google employee, subsequently locked. Seems to be a recurring problem
I've the same issue, cancel/abort the download and start it again fixes the issue
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Hey,
I suffered from the same issue...
I literally tried every in the book but to no avail!
Eventually I had to add a file manager into a rom in order to manually download the apps from the internet and then install them onto my desire!
This is a repeat issue with the Android OS. It does go away after a while... Give it a day or two and it'll just literally stop with the issues.
Good luck friend
I had this issue last week and tried every trick I could to get things working again, even a hard/factory reset didn't work. From reviewing the thread you quoted from the Google support forums I got the impression that it was a Google account problem of some sort so before doing a second factory reset I changed from @googlemail to @gmail and for whatever reason after the hard reset this has done the trick.
Yes, I am having the same problem too and only started couple days ago... I can't download anything at the moment
Still no market downloads
After the froyo update for me, there's still no way
to update or download apps from the market.
I tried all the options now known:
Gtalk
Cache clearing
Factory reset
Etc.
What to do next???
I checked a few places and this seems to be a common problem. One thread on the market forums was started by a google employee, 400+ replies later the thread was marked as answered (which it clearly wasnt) Now the forums are becoming littered with posts on this same problem.
I've managed to sort it out. Settings>apps>market>clear cache>force close market>soft reset seemed to force any pending downloads.
But that wasnt really a solution, so had to export contacts to gmail. Change my googlemail account to a gmail account (as prompted when you login to Gmail in the UK.... then I had to perform a hard reset and make my Gmail account the primary google account on my handset.
Very annoying, and I'm in disbelief that google are SO aware of this and dont seem to be offering any help.
But for the time being it's working again. The suggestion on the market help forums is that the UK market is having problems with @googlemail accounts.
Well i never had the googlemail adress and i'm not from the UK, so there's more to
it then only that specific problem....
Pls advice....
None of the great developers here has an idea what's happening here or maybe a solution to this issue????
Pls help out guys?
Guys please advice, i'm just a bit desperate with this issue.
Nothing seems te help and google stays as silent that i lost faith they are going
to fix this....
Does this mean my DESIRE became useless??!??!?!
It's a bit temperamental to be honest, I left it at 'Starting Download' and sometimes it would start after a few hours and another time after about a day. Never used to be like this before. Google need to seriously take a look at this problem.
Sadly my downloads all just end in "failed" within 5 secs....
Had Problems downloading for a month
Hi All,
I have had this problem for about a month now. Never starts to download for me except if I do a factory reset then it downloads some apps between 3 and 22 apps before it hangs again. The phone is a Samsung Galaxy s I9000. Unlocked. I tried different SIM cards from different carriers and removing the SD memory. I can download from different places on the web like Samsung or one of the web sites that have the apps just not the market.
Has anyone else been having this problem for that long?
Regards

Same here. I usually leave the downloads "hanging" around. After 10 min. to a few hours, the downloads start.
Same with "Chrome to phone". Both apps use the GTalk service to send commands to the phone. Google broke something.
Since updating my phone to an official-based ROM, I've been having inexplicable awake time issues. However I never have any issues while using any release (nightly or RC1/2) of Cyanogenmod. Once my phone began to stop sleeping, the only way to fix it was to do a factory reset. Spare parts shows no partial wake issue at all, just that the android system was running 100% of the time.
I work in tech support, so I have extensive experience with troubleshooting issues such as the one that I was having. However, a week later with at least one factory reset a day, I still had no clue. I had even been keeping a journal of the things that I had been doing with my phone to find something to blame the problem on. The only thing that I found was that after a factory reset that the phone would work fine until the awake time got to between 1:30:00 and 1:45:00. Once it got there, the phone would stop sleeping.
Finally after doing some serious thinking, it became quite apparent that the only thing that really was consistent across every test was the google account that I had used when setting the phone up.
Now for a little background info: I was one of those guys that flashed Cyanogen's first nightly build along with the google apps that had been pulled from the N1. Upon signing into my google account after flashing that first nightnly, I received an email from google saying something about activating a N1 on my google account. This of course wasn't technically true, but google sure thought I had since I used the N1's g-apps. Unfortunately I deleted the email, so I don't know what all it said. However, when I go to my google account dashboard via a web browser on my computer, way down at the bottom there's an "other products" section. Under that section, I have an option for Google Nexus One. It isn't currently manageable via the dashboard, but Google definitely thinks that I've got a Nexus One and there's no way that I can find to remove those settings (if you know of a way to do it, I'm all ears).
So, yesterday the problem cropped up again right at about 1:40:00 of total awake time. When I did the reset, I decided to set up another google account just to see what would happen. With my phone signed into my new google account (which doesn't show a Nexus One in the dashboard) I'm not experiencing the non-sleeping issue.
So...... my conclusion is something like this: My guess is that Google thinks that my phone is an N1, and it probably has the N1 checking in with it at given intervals if it's associated with a gmail account. Since Cyanogenmod is based of AOSP, then that check-in (or whatever it is) runs just fine. However, when I go back to a ROM based on HTC's official release for the Evo, that check-in can't (or won't) happen. My guess is that this check-in mush be scheduled by Google at the time that the phone is attached to a Google account. Because of that, when the scheduled time comes, the process (either left out by HTC or HTC did something to keep it from running properly) causes the phone to fail to sleep since it's trying to run this background process.
Without knowing what the process is, how to stop it from running, or how to change the schedule that it runs on the only option that I can come up with is to use another google account (one that you haven't had a Cyanogen'ed Evo connected to) and see what happens. Since changing the account yesterday afternoon I'm up to almost three hours of total awake time and the non-sleeping issue still hasn't reared is head.
Sorry for the long post, I just wanted to give everyone enough background info so they wouldn't automatically say, "You've installed something from the market that is keeping your phone awake, dummy..."
so did this actually fix your problem? or no?
my phone hasn't been sleeping lately, and it's really starting to bug me. I can't figure out what on earth is keeping it awake!!!
any more info you found out or do find out, please post here! Thanks!
That TLR crap doesn't fly with me. Never apologize for a long post. Some of us really appreciate it when the OP puts time and effort into the information being posted. Thanks man, now I know what to look for if it happens to me.
Hey guys,
A few weeks ago my Verizon Samsung Note 4 received an OTA update - nothing major, I believe it just added some security patches and removed some bloatware. But since then, my gmail app has not been syncing properly.
The sync is definitely still ON, because it does sync sometimes but it's very sporadic. But it's not syncing as soon as emails come in, and often it will take a couple hours for new emails to show up (which I can see if I'm home near my computer). Some mornings I'll wake up and my emails from overnight will be there, and some mornings, nothing will have synced from overnight.
And as far as I can tell, there's nothing specific that finally prompts it to sync (in other words, turning my phone on, or simply opening gmail doesn't make it sync. It just seems to be totally random).
Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks!!
Dude I though it was me.. I been having the same problem. Anyone else having this problem and figured it out?
Same
I got the 5.1.1 update 8 days ago and exact same issue. I've been through 3 factory resets both using previous backups and starting fresh. Also used troubleshooting fixes from other posts... clearing data, clearing cache, turn sync off/on, removed/added Google account, etc. Nothing so far
Same issue here...
Strange. I've also taken the update (actually, if memory serves, there were 2 updates within a couple of weeks) and aren't experiencing the problems you all are seeing. I know, that doesn't help you any.
Hmm, well it does help to hear from others that are having the same problem, so at least I'm not driving myself crazy trying things that won't fix it! Thanks for the replies.
And of course, if anyone has any solutions, I'd still love to hear from you too . . .
I know this also is not much help, but I've sent an email to the Dev but no reply yet...
Same here in note 3 and since updating gmail app my gear 2 no longer gets notications from gmail even when gmail DOES show up on phone notifications.
Leave it to Verizon to screw everything up after finally making some big progress with the first 5.1 update. That update fixed SO MANY issues I was having with the phone. I was ready to switch to a new one, but the update made me want to keep it. Then I wake up to see this latest 2nd update was installed without it asking me, and now I am having major issues with things like Gmail not syncing, but also answering a phone call is horrendously bugged. I will have to swipe the green answer button like 8 times before it actually picks up the freaking call. My wifi will randomly stop sending and receiving any packets and my signal will just drop out completely, airplane mode doesn't fix it and it requires a hard reset. Like holy hell Verizon, what the actual freak do you guys do to your phones...
For months I have hardly problems with this android.process.acore has ended message in my cm11 rooted fire phone installed nano GAPPS (but even with other versions of GAPPS the Problem stayed the same). I have no idea what to do any more, flashed and backuped everything again and again, deleted and restored the contact-datas the way it is discussed in many forums. The problem disappears while disabeling the contact-storage, but this way I cannot use my Fire Phone for phoning from the contacs anymore much less using contacts in Whatsapp . The problem seems to come along with WhatsApp and Facebook and its Messenger, but once installed the problem android.process.acore does not disappear when uninstalling these programs. Anyone got an idea? Thanks a lot for your help!
That's strange, has there been any recent updates to your phone?, i don't know how long you've been on cm11 but amazon recently stopped supporting Facebook who also owns whatsapp. I know someone on stock whose messenger and whatsapp stopped working and the tech on mayday had to relay that to them. Idk if they stopped support through an update or some other means since I haven't been on stock for a very long time. My advice would be to take a logcat and post the issue in the cm11 thread if you can
<romario3600> Thanks for yor advice. I've been with CM 11 from the very beginning and I don't really remember when the problem started, might be like half a year before.. That's weird, for any reasons that android. access. accore disappeared now after uninstalling both facebook and its messenger. Didn't know that the support stopped and this might have caused it. I got a solution now with a third party facebook version by apache. It's working well until I found a solution for my problem.
I have still no idea...
Now the android.process.acore is happening again. I uninstalled all the apps (facevook and it's messenger) that caused the malfunction. Now I got another app called Immonet that claimed the same rights with synchronisation owitg contact data. I uninstalled this app with all data and even wiped the old folders. But the error promt does not disappear anymore I did not find anything all over the net anyone having the same problems that I do.. Anyone got an idea how to solve this one out? I'm so much disappointed,hardly thinking of buying another phone but I like this fire phone with CM11 a lot.

As a last resort if you have the time and effort to put in, id say revert to stock and do a factory reset the normal way using the fire phone's recovery. That should at least ensure that everything is wiped and back to default. After that try downloading and installing CM11 again, don't cut any corners where you might have to wonder if something went wrong. Once the systems boots properly try installing the play store as well as messenger and whatsapp and see how things go from there. avoid rooting the device until you are sure things work
I got another completely new fire phone, rooten CM11 now from the latest FireOS 4.6.1..1. and at the beginning everything worked fine up to now. Now I got the same android.process.accore message again on this completely different device. As this problems is not very common I got now the idea that it might have anything to do with the synchronisation of google contact and it's permission management with these programs that have the rights to read sync the contact storage. But no idea ehat it might be exactly. A while ago I deleted all my contacts on the Google server. Is it possible that the synchronisation got a problem now with my different devices that were once registered on the server with not always having the very same telephone directories? How to solve it if my venture is right?
I just solved this (I hope, so far so good) on my Sony Xperia Z2 tablet. I cleared data on any and every app that had anything to do with Contacts. I went right down the list in All Apps. If it used contacts, I cleared it. That meant Gmail and Hangouts, Messenger, etc.
Before I did this, I tried to write an email and litterally had the error with every single letter. Since I did this, I haven't seen it once. I wrote out an email address on a draft email and posted 2 posts (this will be the third) here. No error yet!
Not an expert. Just a user and fellow acore victim, sharing what worked for me. Though I have been in tech support for 17 years (just more of a Windows PC tech really).

I will check this out on the weekend when there's some time for me doing so. Will tell you if it worked.
Not sure if anyone else has run into this problem since upgrading to Nougat but I wanted to throw it out there in case someone has noticed it or has any suggestions.
Every time I restart my phone, app permissions are reset. Notifications revert back to stock. Camera asks for storage permissions. Calendar needs access to accounts etc. It's hasn't gotten me frustrated enough to reflash but if anyone else has had this experience or has a suggestion I am willing to try it.
My HTC One M9 only recently got the Nougat update (within this month, March 2017). I too have been plagued with access permissions being randomly forgotten at start up. The most annoying being Gmail and Calendar, but I too have had Camera asking for them to be allowed too. Very very annoying.
Since the Nougat update I have had a strange problem with Gmail, even when permissions have been correctly set. The phone completely forgets the two Gmail accounts that I use. I decided to try to uninstall the app but it takes you back out of the updates to the factory installed level. Then when I tried to put my two Gmail accounts in the Google account option was frozen, just could not add them. I finally decided that HTC Sense might have something to do with it! So I disabled it, then re-enabled it and Gmail account setup suddenly responded with my two accounts already showing! So I have now gone to Google Play Store to download the latest Gmail updates and it all appears working. But for how long?
What has HTC done with its Nougat update? The phone was once stable, now its an unreliable mess!

Same issue same phone, I triedclearing cache from TWRP, doesn't work. Are you rooted? I am systemless root with Magisk, so I have a feeling it could be due to this.

Good to hear from you, especially as you are a fellow sufferer.
I have a stock phone, not rooted at all. Sadly I gave up my "nerd" hacking a few years ago. I prefer not to mess these days and stick with what the manufacturer supplies.
However, I still find it odd that no-one else has reported this, but you and I. I am now convinced there is a bug with HTC's tailoring of Nougat. And I believe the reason is that no-one reports it is because they leave their phone on all the time, even when charging. I always close the phone down at night and put it on charge overnight. It seems the complete restart triggers this behaviour. It doesn't do it every time though. I even wondered at some stage if it was simply app updates being applied, as the Gmail, Calendar and other popular apps are often being fiddled with (sorry, enhanced) by Google. However, I also have had the problem at start of day, even after no updates have been applied.
It is very annoying. I wonder if I should try never switching the phone off completely to see if the permissions remain then? What do you think?

So I found my issue was due to a encrypted SD Card which constantly resets permission. So what I did was I formatted my SD Card and replace with existing backed up data from the computer, and it worked.

I've noticed the issue, for sometime now and I've been updated to Nougat since day 1. My phone never sleeps so I didn't noticed. It's pretty annoying. Will try the SDCard formatting and see. I'll let know how it goes.
