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
Sent from my Archos5 using XDA App
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.
Hey everyone,
When I go to use facebook via the stock browser, it brings up the old Mobile Facebook UI. This has only started happening recently, after installing ProxyDroid and activating it for the first time over my university's network. When I was simply rooted and had AdAway activated the current Mobile Facebook UI (that's similar to the Facebook app) would be displayed.
Why is this? Nothing's really changed. Is there any fix for this? Googling gets me nothing.
It started for me today too. I'd rather use the mobile site because the app sucks and is a huge battery hog.

I was speaking to a friend of mine, and he has said that despite uninstalling ProxyDroid, it may still be messing with the Nexus' proxy settings. So I'm going to install it again and clear all the settings. If that doesn't fix it, I'm considering going in and removing any trace of ProxyDroid from root (or just in the Android folder over ADB).
If it's an issue with Facebook though, well... That sucks.
SOLVED:
I just had to clear the stock browser's cookies and cache a few times. Not sure why didn't fix it the first time. Oh well.

Thanks for that mate ... I was having the same issue on my Galaxy S2, didn't know why it was happening but it just suddenly started doing it. I thought it may have been 'cos I had recently flashed a new rom. So I flashed back to stock but that didn't fix it.
I then came across this thread of yours and did as you did, cleared cache and cookies a few times and it seems to have fixed it
thanks again.

It reverted to the old UI for me again after updating to IMM76I. Wiping cache and cookies did nothing, so I went into CWM and wiped my cache and dalvik cache. That fixed it.
I get this notification that says it's downloading. But when I go to app info. It's from downloads instead of the Play Store. I don't know what it is. When I disable the app. Everything stops working; Play store, Chrome, Facebook, etc. I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem?

I didn't download anything. I noticed it on my way home. It initiated randomly. And it won't finish, or even stop. It isn't showing in the downloads either.
****edit
I found it in the downloads a couple hours after the problem started. I don't have a full solution, which sucks.

Might be it is sync ur gallery with fb photos. Uninstall app and reinstall.
I'm experiencing this exact problem, also initiated on its own. I uninstalled and reinstalled Facebook but that did not affect the perpetual downloading of this. Nor have several phone restarts, etc.

solution!!!
I don't know you already fix this problem or not.
I searched several site and finally got an answer for this problem.
Just connect WiFi and let it do whatever it want.
Before I found this, I tried several things;
1. restarted my phone
2. pulled out battery and put back
3. killed the process from task manager
4. removed FB account
5. removed FB app from my phone (actually, back to previous version) and update again
Non of these helped me ever!!!
Also, this problem is not device specific. (I realize it after googling it)
I mean various devices and locations had the same issue.
Anyway, good luck!!!

Thanks. Connecting it to wifi did allow it to finish the unending installation very quickly. That was annoying and I'd like to know why an update initiated on its own, seemingly from within the app and not through the Play store (I do not have any auto-updates allowed, especially for social media apps), and drained my battery while it looped an install process that was apparently constantly seeking a wifi signal to complete.
Thanks a lot!!

I started having this issue today on my Galaxy Tab 2. The only solution people found on different forums is ti turn on WiFi. It'll immediately start downloading and would get installed (Probably due to its size it does not want to be downloaded on 3G/4G). Although I don't feel very comfortable installing this, Does not feel very genuine to me.
Did any one else had this problem? or any issues after installing it?
I had to switch to Wifi about 3 or 4 times and then it finally downloaded. It tried to download all of last night and killed the battery. In the mean time my phone has switched to using Edge instead of 4g and no matter how many times I switch Airplane mode on/off or restart the phone I can't get my 4g back. Think it is just a local problem? I've got a S3 on T-mobile in Orange County, CA.
Here it is in a nutshell: Error 927 on ANY download, any app, any game, be it paid or free, on my Nexus 7 (2013) FHD. I've done the following:
- Cleared the data and cache for the Google Play Store, Download Manager, and Google Services Framework.
- Uninstalled updates for the Google Play Store and Google Services Framework.
- Deleted and re-added my Google account.
- Rebooted.
- Hard reset.
- Downgraded to 4.3 and re-upgraded to 4.4.2.
- Tried to download the apps and games from the Google Play website, and get "An unexpected error has occured. Please try again later."
- Changed the filter and proxy settings on my Cisco router.
- Switched to LTE, and... same thing.
- Created another Google account, and it worked, but I will NOT be forced to re-purchase the apps I've spent nearly $80.00 on over the years, or upload my music collection to Google Music again.
- Reached out to Google for help, and... crickets.
I'm at the end of my rope. If this isn't resolved soon, I'm returning the Nexus to Wal-Mart. I've NEVER had this sort of issue before, even with my first-generation Nexus 7. I've had Android tablets since my Motorola Xoom awhile back. I've ALWAYS had Android tablets. I'd hate to have to abandon Android because of this idiocy, but I may have to do so. I don't want to have to go with Apple for both my smartphone and tablet, but it's starting to look that way.
If anyone has any suggestions that aren't listed above, please, help me out. I love my Nexus 7, but without apps and games, it's pretty worthless.
Thanks in advance.
Normally deleting and adding back the Google account is a solution for Play Store problems, but as you said, you tried that. Some have reported that error 927 is because of a network connection error. How is web browsing? YouTube?

How did you do that? Did you download the 4.3 ROM to flash it? Did you unlock and flash a custom recovery?
When all else fails, flash the stock ROM, especially with your downgrading and upgrading. Google's files include a "flash-all.bat" within that will wipe everything and flash the stock ROM and recovery.

All web browsing and pre-installed apps work just fine. Just any attempts to update those apps, or install any other apps from Google Play, fail with error 927.

I actually have flashed the stock ROMs, from the original 4.3 to 4.4.2, with the exact same results. I've also made certain not to unlock the bootloader and to not root as to recreate the OOB experience as well. At this point, my options are exhausted.

I've been having the exact same issue for 4 days. Regardless of rom, phone, or gmail account I use. I've done every wipe format imaginable even Odin as I have a Samsung phone same issue. Now I cant even get any Google apps to connect at all. Such as Google plus play store YouTube etc...Google says never heard of it before sorry.

I'm having the exact same problem now for a few days. I called Google support and they are aware of the problem and had no resolution. I was told too bad basically.
Out of curiosity, for those having this issue, did you upgrade to a 4.4.2 ROM?
I updated to stock rooted 4.3 galaxy note 2 Verizon and it happens on all of my gmail accounts too

I have the same problem. Ran across this thread doing a search for the error 927. Running a Verizon HTC One and an LG G Pad 8.3. Both have the same problems, and i too have called Google several times. Their answer was to call HTC. I was livid. I changed my password, but was only a temporary fix until I made a purchase from the Play store. Then the error came back. I realize i am in the Nexus 7 forums but wanted to chime in since the problem is happening to me too. Hopefully Google comes up with a fix. Too much money tied up to just create new account, which does work by the way.
Creating a new account shouldn't even be an option what it the issue happens on the new account? Google just needs to fix it.

Same boat. I did everything the original poster did as well. Called into play store support and eventually got passed off to tier 2 support. Haven't heard anything in over a week.
The issue affects every device I log into with my account. Originally showed rpc:s-7 error, now 927.
Anyone with this problem find a solution? Again, I've done everything the op posted. In the past I've been able to correct the problem. But this time, no go.
Have the same problem... In every device I'm using with my account... 3 tablets, 2 cell phones. Spent more than 400 dollars in apps.. Can't download, nor even update. Always error 927. Changed password and problem persists.. It's obviously a problem with my account.. Wonder what could I do.
Have you tried installing apps from Google Play on a computer?
Hello, just an update...
My problem has gone... Seems it was from google side.
Too bad I had to flash my cel 3 times before I realized it was happening to all my devices.
Don't know if the password change had anything to do with the fix since, at least, it didn't work immediately.
If you encounter the same problem don't panic... give it a little time, hopefully it fixes on its own.
Thank you very much.
Does anyone here use the live weather lockscreen wallpaper? It only started giving me issues just a few days ago (I've used it for months without a hitch). It seems that it simply won't update the location, even though I have location set to high accuracy. The weather widget is updating its location just fine.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any idea what to try to get it working again? I'm wondering if it has to do with the latest LP update to OF1...
Edit: Followup - I gave up trying to avoid a factory reset and just went ahead with it. It's working now as expected. I've no idea what caused the problem, but I suspect I deleted some files I shouldn't have. Hope this helps someone else if they so happen to also use this feature and it stops working.
Update: Yeah, I spoke too soon. It's definitely one of the apps on my phone interfering with it, as it worked for about 24 hours after the FDR. My guess is a recent update to one of Samsung's apps may be disrupting it. The investigation continues (for as long as I have interest in trying to fix this).
Any idea of where else to look? Is there an easy way of finding out when exactly each app was last updated or installed?

I recently have the same issue. ES File Explorer has a way to view installed apps and sort by most recently modified. It's on the lefthand pop out menu under library. Curious to know what you find out and if it's truly a recently updated app causing the issue. Note I can manually make it work by manually resetting the lockscreen wallpaper, but it only updates once, then stuck again.

So I'm not going crazy! Glad to know I'm not the only one. This also works for me, and only once. You can also force close the Live Weather app or reboot the phone and have the same effect.
I'll see what I can find from ES when I get the time and report back. Thanks for the info!

Hard to believe we're the only ones experiencing this. Your post was the only recent hit I got on Google (that's why I joined this forum). Sure tons on how to get the location settings right to work correctly with the lock screen weather wallpaper but that's old news. If it's any help I have the latest Verizon OTA update OF1 on Note 4 as well and keep my apps updated weekly. But I just got this issue maybe Sunday 8/9? Or at least that's when I guess I noticed.
That's true - perhaps many don't really care enough to pursue fixing this issue, too. Hehe
There was a recent update for the VZ note 4 - now the build ends in OG5. Hasn't fixed the issue to no surprise. It was mostly a fix for the Stagefright vulnerability from what I gathered.
I tried disabling the Samsung Push Service app yesterday, no change in lockscreen behavior so that app can be checked off. I'm trying not to go crazy with disabling a bunch of apps all at once, and my free time is also limited. This will be a long and grueling process...
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
I also was hoping the recent security OTA update would fix this but no joy. Just FYI I stumbled on an app that does nearly the same thing, Weather+ by Lalaworks. It's in the Play store. I installed on my Tab Pro since that didn't have weather lockscreen built in. You might want to check it out in the interim. A bit of hefty ram usage but that's the price for eye candy I guess.
I just tried a factory reset again yesterday with a minimum installation of apps. No luck again. I did go bloatware-disable happy though. I have nearly 40 apps disabled. I did try re-enabling all apps for a bit a couple of weeks ago though, which didn't seem to make a difference anyway. I *might* try a 3rd reset tonight and leave all bloatware (minus DTIgnite and VZ Protection) enabled for a day and see where that takes me.
After that, I'll throw in the towel. I can't really see the apps I have disabled now interfering with the wallpaper, especially when they were disabled for months on end with proper operation. Thanks for an alternative solution, will have to check that out.
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
The verdict isn't out yet on Weather+ for me. Seems to work okay but no lock screen notifications, at least I can't find that setting in the app. Don't want to have to find another 3rd party app to get Lollipop lock screen notifications back. Ugh! We may have to wait for the L 5.1 or M update I fear.
@imamax, you mentioned you noticed this starting around 8/9. Did you update to the OF1 build around that time?
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
Unfortunately no, I did that update 7/19.
Interesting my wallpaper did change on its own tonight. Just once so far. Weird the pic from Flickr says Berkley... I'm in Massachusetts and weather widget location is correct. Updates from Play Store tonight were Facebook, Google Play Games, Angry Birds Friends, Netflix. Something to chew on.
Huh, interesting. Did you happen to reboot your phone recently, prior to that happening? Do you have the wallpaper set to update over WiFi only?
I just did one final factory reset, and installed no additional apps. I disabled "DT Ignite" and "Support and Protection" and It seems like the lock screen wallpaper was changing overnight while I stayed put. We'll see if it updates now that I'm going to work...
Nope no reboot and no WiFi only. Still stuck on same screen this morning though. We'll see what happens today.
Kind of a long shot but...do you use any sort of security lock on your phone? I use the fingerprint scanner on my lock screen. I wonder if security is somehow affecting the live weather app's access to changing the wallpaper... It's a far-fetched thought but so far the screen hasn't updated for me since early this morning.
Nope. No PIN, no finger scan, nothing. Just swipe and unlock.
I've had DT ignite dialed for a while and VZ Protection was update 7/3. No change all day so far.
---------- Post added at 10:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------
Oops meant disabled not dialed.
I succumbed to doing another reset, just so I could restore a backup from a couple of weeks ago rather than manually download all the apps I once had again. Interestingly the lockscreen updated itself once within the hour after setting it as the wallpaper after the reset, but hasn't updated since. I'm out of ideas. I also kept DTIgnite running overnight. That's being disabled now...

Alright, a little update. I exchanged some posts with Verizon on their forum, and they *might* look into it. It must be a bug with the latest software updates, or something on Yahoo's end. But a coworker here uses the wallpaper with no problem on his ATT Note 4...
Is there anyone else out there on here using the Wallpaper on the OG5 or OF1 builds??
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
I am using the Note 4 on at&t (SM-910A) and am experiencing the same problem. It seems to have begun malfunctioning after the stagefright fix. City images no longer load, and it does not update periodically anymore (only after restarting the phone). Thought about factory reset but haven't done so yet. I tried clearing caches (including android system cache), disabling reenabling; everything aside from factory reset. No dice. Hoping the 5.1 update provides a fix.
