New Market App Issue? - Nevermind

I am using DL DesireZ v2.6 on a TMOUS HD2. Not sure if it is related. I been using it for a few days now. Yesterday, I notice a updated of Market App was automatically installed when I open Market.
Two things I notice is
1. my Edge/3G/Mobile data Icon appear when ever I open Market App and won't go away until I reboot. I am set to Wifi-only when first configure and don't even subscribe to a data plan. My mobile data is always disabled (never turn on, checked few times and enable and disable it). Doesn't look like it was sending data though, I still get network error if I disable wifi unless I enable Mobile Data.
2. I am not able to install XDA Developers Official App.
Not a big deal, but I am try to figure out if this is related to this build only. Has anyone else notice this? Was the Market App updated Yesterday. (Jan 19,2011)?

I was able to install XDA Apps this morning??!!
So the only problem is why the Mobile Data Icon show up?

answered my own question.
Looks to be dangling ICON issue. I had another ICON (GPS) did the same thing. so it would appear other than the mis-informative ICONS, there is no issue. Maybe a bug in the custom framework it uses. It's strange the new Market App is able to reproduce the issue on my HD2 consistently.

[Q] Issue with market?

I am experiencing something funky with my marketplace. Everytime I go to "My Apps" I get a server error. I can connect online and I can search for apps with Marketplace, it just won't show me my downloaded apps. Anybody having this issue? I think it started after installing AppBrain and uninstalling.

i had the same problem today but i didnt install anythimg.

Same problem here all day

Something similiar is happening with my marketplace. Im not able to download apps from marketplace on my phone. I haven't been able to do this for about 2 weeks. Sometimes It comes back up and im able to download but most times it won't work. I cant even flash roms anymore because I can restore any of my older apps.

Started with CM7 nightly 32 for me as well.

I just get a blank screen.

Same here searched the web and tried everything suggested : unmounted card, cleared market,cleared caches, logolged out and in google talk.
Works fine if u wipe everything, but any titanium restore of any app will break everything again.
Either I get "download failed" or "package is invalid"
Been happening for weeks.

getting it too but it works.

In other threads it was reported that Market was behaving erratically; group consensus, as it wasn't specific to any particular ROM/kernel/mod was that it was a Market issue and *not* a device/user issue. Convenient patsy to blame was the recent change to support the web-enabled Market and perhaps some ongoing maintenance around that.
HTH

Still happening to me. I started right after I rooted and installed Sprint Lovers ROM. Maybe its just a coincidence.
The market will either not download or will download and then return the invalid package error message. Happens on 3G, 4G and WiFi, even after I clear the market data and cache and reboot.
Very curious.

Few others to try:
1) Delete the .android.secure folder on the SD card. This is where apps you moved to SD are located. If you want to keep them, move them back to the phone before deleting this folder.
2) Power cycle Wifi.
Its probably an issue with market itself, but a few other things to try couldn't hurt.

My phone will start acting like it is downloading. But before it gets to even one percent the download just stops, no trace of it anywhere. Pretty annoying to say the least. However, every once in a while it downloads without a problem. Strange. Been happening about 2 or 3 days.

Folks, I fixed this on my EVO. The details are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=910956&highlight=invalid+package

Not showing all my Apps in the New Android Market

Trying to see if this is just me or other people experiencing the same issue. Android Market updated last wk and now only the apps that I have purchased are showing up under my apps. Under the help section they say this is a known problem. There are certain times when I go into the market and click on my apps and everything shows up but thats like 1/10 times. Anyone experiencing the same issue?
BTW I'm running CM7 nightly on build 08052011

Thanks for the input but I've never heard of "batch relink". Can you describe it more in depth? To clarify all my apps are still on my phone. If I search for the app by name it shows as being installed on my phone, just not under MY Apps.

Saw something called Market Doctor in Ti Backup that sounds like what you are talking about but after that ran it said it restore link for 6 of my apps but still same result only paid apps showing under My Apps.

sorry its called "attach to the market"
try it with a single app if you want, find one thats not linked currently. open titanium go to backup/restore tab & long press on the app you want. you should have an option to attach to market.
let us know if that helps
but yea market doctor might be what does them batch style.. i dunno if a reboot might help after applying

When I long press anyone of the apps that isn't showing up there is a bunch of opts but i don't see attach only one I get is detach from market. Which makes me believe it is linked correctly. Tried rebooting, same issue. Maybe this is a issue on their end since some times all my apps does show up. Just weird if no one else is experiencing this.

In TB, if you hit menu, more you should see the market doctor. If that doesn't work, delete the data for the market. I had to do that to fix mine.

Went to Ti Backup selected Market. Wiped data. Ran the Market. It asked for me to accept to the terms which I did. Same result only paid apps are showing up in My Apps.

This has been a problem with the Market for a while for me. You should be able to see all your apps, paid and free, on the Market website (https://market.android.com). I've never done a "market repair" before.

My issue is that certain apps are just plain no longer showing in the market. such as Better keyboard 8. I love this keyboard, bought the pro version and have a couple of favorite skins for it. now it dont show up in the market.

I was finally able to resolve my issue, here is what I did. Using Ti Backup I selected the Market and restored a older version. The version i had backed up was 2.x I havent done a back up in a while. After the Market was restored to the older version I ran the app. It ask me to accept the term, after i click ok the app forced closed and it automatically downloaded a update. After a few mins I clicked on the Market again and it once again ask me to accept to the term but this time it was the new Market. All my apps are in the My App section. Thanks for everyone for their advise and input. With out the ideas that was tossed out there I wouldnt know where to start or what to try.

Update:
Same thing again only purchased apps are showing in My Apps. I can do the same thing over again and all my apps will show up but this seems to be a temporary fix. Any other suggestions?

Market downloads

Has anyone else had the problem where you're browsing the market on your a500, click to download an app, and it simply doesn't download?
About 70% of the time (conservative estimate) the "taskbar" shows that an app is downloading, but the "My Apps" panel in the market doesn't show that download. If I leave it alone, the taskbar reports that the download completed, but I don't see the app anywhere. I also noticed that if I'm browsing the market on my PC and I send an app to be downloaded on my tablet, if the "My Apps" panel isn't open on the tablet, the app will not download.
I'm running the stock OTA 3.1 ROM.

I get that a lot. I am forced to hit back and then select install or download the app a 2nd time. Not sure why.

I have always had this same problem ,even after updates from the Market. I hate the Market. It turns into a major thing just trying to download anything. It's very frustrating and takes 10 minutes of trying, trying again, cussing, connection time outs. Its pretty bad when we have a Android device and its a Android market and they still can't get it right. Maybe it's a Honeycomb thing? Maybe they should call apple and get some advice?

+1

common issue
Go into settings
Application
Manage applications
Browse to the market app
Clear app data.
This will sometimes fix that issue but only for a while
Worked for me
Good luck

I've had the same problem. Running Taboonay custom ROM version 2.0.

market
Same here have had that problem and so does wife. I get a kick out of wife she gets frustrated and impatient and swears at it.....lmao

So for a while there I was having the same issue. I went into clock work recovery and wipe dcache and battery stats and now all is well again. I would recommend that.

My issues seems to be that when I try to pull down an app, it tells me that it is unable to purchase. And suggestions?

I've had that a few times where I couldn't purchase an app. I found that purchasing through the online market works fine and auto-installs into the right device. It might have something to do with the lack of phone and IMEI number; could be wrong though.
Also, buying stuff with my phone then installing on my tablet works fine.

Go to settings applications Tonto market app then clear . Simple fix. Simple fix

Tried all this stuff still dont work
So i tried all this stuff and it still wont even download anymore it just FC when i click the my apps button FC this is really annoying. Went to market on pc it even says the app is installed on my device and it is soooooo not. Saw on another thread someone said Google was blacklisting users they know are rooted which i think is just dumb and dont believe, who cares what we do to the device we are still running android and want to purchase apps from the store. super lame well gonna try few other things then guess reinstall rom and kernel and see if that helps thank got for titanium backup

S7 Edge Notification Delay and A Lot of Other Problems

Recently I am having notification delays with my S7 Edge G935F. I have read through some posts on this forum and other sources and can't figure it out.
Here are some of the problems:
1. notifications are often delayed for more than thirty minutes
2. if I want to manually check notification when it does not pop up, unlocking the screen does not make the notification show, I have to actually launch the specific app to see the notification
3. It is more than just not showing the notification, when I am using some instant messaging apps (like WeChat), I can't see new messages coming in while the app is running in the front. I have to press the home button and get back to home screen, then re-enter the app, then the messages show up. This happens to many other apps as well.
4. Other things go wrong as well. For example, my Android Auto was set to launch whenever I get into my car and car bluetooth is connected. It is also delayed, by more than hours. It often launches long after I finish my driving and get back home sitting on my couch.
5. Downloading new apps from Play Store has problems as well. It downloads to 100% and just stops there, it does not start installation. I have to use Settings->App to kill Play Store and re-open it to "refresh" it, then it starts to install.
6. After installation of new app, it does not show up on my screen or app draw inside my launcher. I can see the app installed in Play Store. I have to kill launcher and re-open the launcher to make it "refresh" the app list then I can see new app inside the app draw.
I have also tried a lot of ways to fix it:
1. change app to not battery optimized -> didn't fix it
2. update firmware -> didn't fix it
3. factory reset -> works for the first day then it goes wrong again
4. flash to a different firmware (official ROM in different regions) -> works for the first day then it goes wrong again
5. use third-party ROM (Lineage OS) -> completely fix the problem, but too buggy to use
I can see the general idea of what's going wrong, some events happened (connected to car Bluetooth, new messages coming, app finished downloading, new app installed, etc.) and the system is not responding correctly. I am not very familiar with Android development but I feel like something is wrong with the "event handling" or "event raising" inside Samsung's Android system.
Please post reply if you have any idea or are facing the similar problems.
EDIT:
The phone is on Android 7.0, Build Number NRD90M.G935FXXU1DQER

You've stated that flashing the custom ROM solved the problem, so maybe you should try flashing a different rom that's a bit more stable.
From personal experience i can recommend the SuperStock rom. It's stock (obviously) and it's debloated and very stable with pretty good battery life as far as i remember.
there is some info about it here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/want-to-root-custom-one-stay-stock-t3631098?styleid=18 (ignore the root part).

Hi,
did you find any solution to this problem ? cause i got the same problem, and i'm going crazy... few months already and can't figure out what is the problem...
the temporary fix i've found is disabling the "google app" in application manager... it fix the problem but i can't use any Google app features (and i like using them...).
I've found few ppl experiencing the same problem searching on internet but no one with a real fix...
if someone more experienced can help debut this it would really mean a lot...

I think it is the battery optimization setting. You may check the settings>battery>advanced settings>optimize apps. You need to keep the apps un-optimized if you want the notifications and sync.
Also, you may check if Sync is on or off.
If these two does not solve, factory reset if you are on stock ROM. If on a custom ROM, you may check a different ROM

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Actually none of this works... The only thing that "fixes" the issue is disabling the Google app in the application manager... That's why its so weird...
The problem started around July/August 2017 for me...
As i discovered that disabling Google was fixing the problem, i assumed that they'll correct it by updating the app... But only one update of the app was ok, all others would make the problems reappear...
Messing with battery optimization settings doesn't change anything for me... Factory reset as well... The problem comes back as soon as the google app gets updated...

Try clearing cache and deleting data from the Google app the time the problem occurs

already tried... doesn't help at all...
