I'm on JFADP1.51 CRB43 along with the new 1.35 Hero Theme installed. The Marketplace has suddenly stopped informing me about updates.
When I access my "My Downloads" section, it does not show a title for "update". Whenever searching for the specific app I already have installed, it shows me that there is an update available. This goes along with just casually browsing the "All" app catalog.
Could this be because of the ADP1.51 version of the ROM? I've been using this ROM for more than 3 weeks.
It looks as if this is targeting all a variety of ROMs.....:

i am having the same problem. I haven't paid my bill in a couple months (being jobless sucks) so I assumed that's why....?
I created another thread that's dealing with the same issue (just throwing links to each other to help anyone that comes along with the same problem hopefully find a solution).
momentarylapseofreason proposed a possible solution. Although it didn't work for me, I'd be interested to hear if it works for others:

Simple resolution...
Go into Settings-->Manage Applications---Market
Clear Cache
Then go back to the Market and you should see the updated versions (Worked for me with HandCent and MobileDefense.

Thank You bitbybit!
I really appreciate it that I'm not the only one experiencing this issue. I was reading your thread and found the link to my thread from there.
EDIT: Seems that clearing the Market cache does nothing...
Haha, no problem I was going nuts thinking I was the only person whose apps weren't updating
I'm hoping it's not an intentional thing that Google decided to shutoff access to anyone w/a hacked rom/root or something
Hopefully it'll be fixed soon!
Shouldn't be related to hacked ROMs - I am on stock 1.5, and have same issue.

so do i for this market not updated for the app, right now im using jf 1.5 ADP....we just waitin for the confirmation from google why this thing can happened

your phone is still on after a few months of not paying????? they turned my phone off at midnight the day my bill was due a few months back, i wasn't even able to call t-mo and figure out wtf was going on. i was a day late and they turned off my phone even though i have been a loyal customer for 7 years
I also started experiencing this problem a couple days ago, im on JF 1.5 ADP with the Hero theme. If you search for it manually though, it will say update available. Weird stuff.
Same problem here...it was working when I was on Cyanogen 3.2...ever since I upgraded to 3.4.4 about a week ago it stopped working.

same for me ... good to know i'm not alone .
Work Arounds!
I am having the same issue as well, but it does not seem to be ROM related.
I have been using Cyanogen's ROM's since version 3.2+ and have never had this issue until recently, but seeing as how people with stock phone's are having the issue as well.. that eliminates the possability of it being ROM's.
I tested out clearing Market Cache which did not work. The only thing that seems to be working for me is going through and searching for the app manually, which will list an update for the app your searching for, just not in the My Downloads option.
OR
You can download aTrackDog from the Market which will find updates to all of your apps and you can download from the Market using that. But if anyone else seems to find a workout or fix, please let me know
I'm having this problem also.
Is anyone that has this specific issue able to download paid apps? This seems to be broken for me as well.

Yep -
I have this issue (UK Magic on O2 with Cupcake stock). Noticed it last week. Bought CoPilot (UK) on Sunday and 2 apps today without any further issue.
My 2 cents: I did briefly try a non-Market app (using the appropriate checkbox) the other week - could this be a cause?
I'm currently using aTrackDog to get my updates (I've tried clearing the cache and it did nowt).
Why don't you start using aTrackDog? This should help for your problems while someone will find the solution for this.

Well damn. I cleared cache and even verified the permissions of my app-private directory. I've wiped and reflashed.
Both problems persist.
Just out of curiosity, what was the non-market app?

Oooo now you're asking...
*struggles to remember*
sigh - sorry can't remember (I've been trying a lot of apps lol) - whatever it was it wasn't what I was looking for as I deleted it (and the downloaded apk).
I'm hoping this is a market bug rather than a handset issue...

wifi my friend. My voice and data has been off for a couple months lol.
[SOLVED]
Hi,
I've found a way to solve the market issues and missing updates issue.
I'm running CyanogenMod-3.5.2.
These are the steps I recall I've done to fix the problem:
1) Open the Terminal and:
Code:
cd /data/system
mv packages.xml packages.xml.old
2) reboot the phone,
packages.xml will be recreated
this may took a little time so be patient.
3) you have to enter your gmail account info again.
and some apps could forceclose.
4) reboot again
5) I've run also the fix_permission script in the Terminal,
but maybe it is not necessary, so you can try to skip this step:
Code:
/system/bin/fix_permissions
6) run the Market app and you'll see Update available in My downloads,
if there are some updates for your apps, downloading and installing also
works again.
7) You can delete packages.xml.old now if you want:
Code:
cd /data/system
rm packages.xml.old
That's it.
So far I've not noticed any malfunctioning, all my settings were retained
and all apps seem to work. Hope that I've not forgotten any important step,
so USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
UPDATE:
:-( sadly this worked only initially, the missing updates issues is not resolved
but at least i can download apps again. Seems like a file permission problem tough.
Hey guys, I've recently updated to the leaked Froyo update and occured some problems. My phone worked fine the first couple days, but now for the last two my facebook app doesn't work. Ive tried whiping, reinstalling the update, clearing cache for the app, and re logging back into it. The error message I keep getting is:
"An error has occuried while fetching data. [null]"
I've never seen this kind of error before, and can't figure out how to fix it. Any ideas or suggestions? I had CM5.0.6 on before this if that info helps. If you need anything else from lemme know, caz I'm out of ideas
Same problem here. Noticed it today. Even at home with wifi connected, I get that same message on Facebook. Anyone have an idea why. Facebood worked for a couple of days after updating to froyo, then now nothng
i have stock nexus one. started happening to me yesterday
It's not your ROM or phone people having same problem on the hero

btw - tested facebook app on my xperia x10a. gets the SAME error. facebook app problem, probably.
It's definitely a problem with Facebook itself. Most likely due to the changes in privacy settings (again).
ya, wifes cliq has the same issue all day
Yea doesn't work on mine either as of later night...same. " null" error. Strangely, I loaded 'Blue' and it works fine

Its a Facebook issue
Wife says her iPhone won't even work, so Facebook screwed something in the API.. Probably making changes so random people have even more access to your information.
Not androids fault. Blame it on facebook. Its on their end.

lol couldnt have been said better ..i started having this too. it just started today..i can get notifications to load correctly and comment and what not,but when i go to neww posts people have put or try to write something on my wall then i get that notification..
Facebook just changed the users privacy settings once again, so that's why.
It's working again today.
Hopefully, with the Android Facebook SDK released yesterday, it won't be too long before we get a really good facebook app like the one on the iPhone (as opposed to the crap we have now).

Ever seen the Windows Mobile Facebook? The current Android one is awesome compared to it.. Never looked at it on the iPhone.
And gee, I was right.. They were adding more "Privacy" settings. Funny how they use the word "Privacy".
Not sure if any of you saw this or not but I trust in Eric Tseng. He's been at Facebook about two weeks and he's already getting stuff done. http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/385
Btw the error fetching data happens to me too. It happens all the time and they have to end up updating again. Have faith in Tseng!! He just needs more time.
I had that error too, it went away early this morning...
also, I cannot wait to see what the next facebook app has in store with the SDK being released...does this mean our facebook client will equal or even surpase the iPhone one?
even on a stock rom, i still have issues with fb
Facebook app seems to work just fine here (N1 running Froyo). I've tested using both both 3G and WiFi.

Anyone know what fixes Market apps not downloading very first time you start download?
What i mean is when i first install a rom and try to download an app from market it gets stuck on "downloading" but wont download apps,apps will download eventually but it may take few minutes or few hours to start,and after the first app downloads successfully market functions without problems.
I know there is a trick to make it download quick first time,but i dont know what it is.It used to be clearing market cache or syncing gmail but that doesn't work anymore.There is a few roms that i used that have this problem,gotta be a fix for it.
Wrong forum

Yes wrong forum but you can answer the question (assuming you know if not apologize), but what i do is when i first boot up on a new rom, i open up the market, then it will auto send me to sign in after i sign in and everything syncs up i restart the phone. When the phone boots back up, i open the market let it sit for a little while then go to menu -> downloads, and usually my previously installed apps are listed i try to install one if successful i have no market problems(btw this was all done over wifi).

You can try signing into google talk, this fixes the initial lag, might fix this too. Sometimes I cancel and restart the download a few times which eventually works

No. This is definitely the wrong sub-forum for this thread. This sub-forum is for ROM/Kernel development.
This belongs in General.
Does this forum have a dedicated Mod? If we do, we need a second.

No,my market is working fine(i don't mind waiting for first download to go through",i was asking because someone was having this issue on kanged rom that i posted,so i wanted to see if there is quick way to start first download.I will try your method next time i flash and see if it works.
I've had this issue with every rom i've tried, except for the baked snack one, and i've tried just about every rom ;p
The workaround i've found is..turn on wifi.. open up the market place and let the icons show up in your notification bar.. then turn off wifi. Works flawless for me everytime.

Same here too. I'm wondering if it's related to being rooted. Total speculation, but a lot of the posters on the Google forum posting do mention custom ROMs.

Is anyone 100% stock, never rooted, and having this problem? And is anyone rooted not having this problem?
The wife is using Fresh Rom on her Hero and it works perfectly...
I am rooted running MIUI and my download started within 5 seconds of clicking install in the browser.
I hadnt even thought of using this yet. Logged in, picked a random app, and it downloaded to my phone instantly on CM7.
No issues here. Running CM7#24 and market 2.2.11

What kernel are you running? Any themes or anything else that could change something? Also what build are you using? When was the last time you flashed a Rom? What did you have for breakfast?
Sorry for the 10 million questions, but it would be cool if we could narrow down whats causing it.
I have the terrible "no device is associated" error
Was unable to download from the website with CM6 and market 2.2.7. Installed a market 2.2.11 zip...voila problem solved.
Using an unrroted Evo the downloads start almost instantly. It might be related to being rooted though...
The website worked for me on Myn's but not on CM7 nightly 23
Just tried and the market began downloading immediately.

I have had this problem come up a few times and it seems to me there is something getting stuck, however once I turn on WIFI the programs stated downloading instantly, then after that it seems to come unstuck... I started having this problem when i turned off the Enable aways-on mobile data, to save battery. So I offer this as a solution only becuase it has worked for me... That is download it via Wifi to get it unstuck and then try it via 3G or 4G...
I wiped everything last night (for a few reasons, not just this), and it cleared up the problem for me. I'm still on myn RLS5, as I was before when it wasn't working.
I restored all my apps + data, and a handful of system data (Phone contacts, Browser data, and some other stuff).
One thought I had was that maybe Google Talk data needs to be cleared? I think that's related to how the downloads are pushed to the phone. I didn't try that before I wiped.

If your on wifi try turning it off and download through 3g...
I can't believe google took away appbrains ability to do this even though they had it first. Not to mention their UI was much better looking and a lot smoother to use...
That's ridiculous. Easily on par with some of the ways apple has screwed its developers...
I loaded up EB13 last night and had no issues until I started downloading my apps. I have Slingplayer that I purchased to watch my Slingbox on my phone while on the go. If I search the Market it is missing. At first I thought it was something with paid apps, but I noticed my other bought apps were listed. I also noticed Ringlert was not listed in the market...a free app.
If I login into the Market on a PC web browser I can find those apps with no issues. But it says I have them installed on my phone already. Umm..no I don't!
Anyone else having issues like this?
There seem to be some people, myself included, that are having issues with protected apps. I noticed that NYTimes is not showing up and neither is TMZ. I need to try a clean install and see if I still have the problem, I cannot tell if this issue is happening after a data restore from CMW, or if its a real bug. Did you do any data restore?
The problem is the market does not recognize this release as a legitimate. It will take a few days before it does. There is a fix you can apply if you search for it in the device section.

Kinda figured something like that... think that's the i9000 fingerprint fix or something like that.
Also, try to contact the developer of the app. They might be able to change something that might make it work.
Just for the Record, I'm having the same problem as well. I Installed the EB13 and Slingplayer isn't listed in the Market, I'll wait a few days to see what happens. Hopefully it's back in there cause I really don't feel like screwing around with crap.

Slingplayer still missing. Missing on another phone that isn't rooted. He refuses to root his phone.
Clearing the cache won't help with this problem. It's on Google's side.
If you are rooted, you can always backup the apk file while on the old 2.1 or DK28 build when it showed up in the market, then reinstall by hand after loading EB13
This is now resolved for me.
