Can't download apps from the Marketplace

Since I updated to the new Orange .66 ROM earlier today, I can't download any apps from the marketplace.
I try and then the download just hangs saying 'Starting download' as does nothing. I've left it 'downloading' for ages but it didn't do a thing.
I can search the marketplace etc but just can't download.
Any idea?
Checked all of my data connections, everything is fine, exchange emails are coming through. Even tried it with WiFi enabled and connected.
It's driving me mad as I updated the ROM using the RUU installer which wipes everything on your phone. I now can't download the apps I need.

Sorted. Everything suddenly came back to life without me doing anything. Must have just been a minor blip for a couple of hours

It's a quite normal problem many users are experiencing. The usual fix is in fact to log in on the Gtalk app (believe it or not)

I'm using stock rom and have the same problem.

So you open Gtalk and then the downloads should start or do you have to stay in Gtalk until they're done downloading? I tried opening it and then going back to the Market Downloads and they hadn't started yet.

You have to log in to Gtalk - that's the thing to do

[q] problem with calendar

I am using Android on my HTC HD2 for around 3 months now and I am really excited... It is like buying an totally new phone. The only major issue I have is that the calendar does not work!!! I always get the message
"The process com.htc.calendar stopped unexpectedly.... OR
"The process com.htc.bpg stopped unexpectedly....
Any help is appreciated

I'm bumping this thread as I'm having the same problem... I can't use anything calendar-related in Android without getting "The process com.htc.calendar stopped unexpectedly"
I'm currently using MCCM v3.4 (continuation of Darkstone's FroyoStone) but it's been the case since I got this phone with FroyoStone 3.0 and remained when I upgraded to 3.2. I'm also using a stock(-ish) 2.10 WM ROM... at the moment.
Any suggestions as to where to look/tweak?
Thanks in advance.

Bumping again.
So... many views (177 as I type this) and no responses. Can I assume from this that the original poster and I are the only ones experiencing this sort of issue?
I'd really, really, really like to be able to use a calendar in android!

looks like its just you guys?
ive never had a prob with the calendar, but did have an issue with HTC people/contacts app when using same data.img in a diff' build. clearing data & cache using app mngr & a reboot fixed it.
might work for u
or, might not.
worth a try.

Yeah, maybe we're just 'special'!
There seem to be a bunch of app managers available... any particular one recommended for the functions suggested above?
Thanks!

hey,
the stock android app mngr will do the trick (settings> applications> manage applications) or if you want something with more options try 'quick system info' from the market.
hope it works for u.

Hah!!! I've been brainwashed by the wealth of stuff available from the market (e.g. SystemPanel), and it's been so long since I've needed to use settings> applications> manage applications, that I'd forgotten you can clear cache and data using it!
As an update, there was no cache to clear for calendar, and only 2.0kB of data... clearing that didn't stop me from getting "com.htc.calendar has stopped unexpectedly" ... so I'm not expecting a reboot to help... but time to try it anyway... only my 17th reboot of the week!
Edit: Holy [email protected]!!! As mentioned, clearing data for Calendar itself made no difference, but I hadn't noticed 'Calendar Storage' just below it in the list... deleted the 48.0kB of data for this app, et voilà... calendar worketh! ... even without that 17th reboot of the week...
Thanks again for the suggestions.

good stuff, glad it worked for you

[Q] anyone else having this?

hi all. im getting that annoying 'sorry process com.htc.bgp has stopped working' crap every time it tries to sync facebook contacts. ive done tones of searching and tried removing and re adding the facebook account, clearing data/cache. it not a clash with google cos it does it even when im not logged in to google, ive tried official 1.5 rom - no problem there, accepted the first part of update -still no problem, accepted the 2.1 update - boom! it also does it on villain 12 now. have no idea why its just started doing it
anyone else having this issue at the mo?

HAve you tried updating the facebook app
found on google ( apparently you need to backup your contacts first
goto settings, applications, manage applications, all
then search "contacts storage", click on it, then choose "clear data".
after that the contact storage should work again, allthough you lost all data
in it...

Hi, thanks 4 the reply. I have tried clearing contact storage with no luck when u say update Facebook do u mean Facebook 4 android (if so, yep, done that) or Facebook 4 sense (if so, how do I do that?)
This is really p***ing me off now

Hi there,
An interesting cause i read about is apostrophess in names. Apparently the contact sync messes up if you have an ' in your name.... others also recommend clearing "Calendar Storage".
I know that installing a a custom rom fixes all (but adds its own problems )
Good luck!

Hi. Yeah, that was the cause of a previous error but not this time. After a lot more searching and the help of a tech friend it seems that its a sql mismatch between sense n Facebook. Htcs response was basically 'turn it off n on again'! So basically I say **** you HTC and am now on custom, no-sense Rom n my next phone won't be HTC!

Seems so I do like the look of sense but I'm now on elelinux 2.2 special running its default kernel speeds and its over twice as fast as stock 2.1 (4.1mflops as opposed to 1.8) and nearly twice as fast as my gf's wildfire on stock 2.2 (she gets 2.2mflops) and with adw launcher to customize everything actually looks better than sense... screw you HTC

[Q]Facebook

Anybody noticed that Facebook push notification aren't working?

Noticed that...can't find any reaso why.
Should work with Android 2.2.X but it doesnt

Ah I'm glad it's not just me. Well I thought it was just the ROM I'm using but like you said all 2.2 devices should support it.

Since today i'm running RAFDROID HD 3.1 and there is no "push" setting in facebook available.
I think it's an Facebook bug because a friend of me have an Desire HD and there a no notifications, too.
Are there any solutions to get they working? I would love push notifications in facebook

There never was any push setting it jusr sort of happened try going back to version 1.5.0. Tell me if it works. The apk is attached for you.

I noticed that the notification aren't working when on mobile data, then a message appears saying that notification cannot be checked (connection reset by peer) or s.thing similar.
However, when on WiFi the notifications are loading.
Guess as well that it is a Facebook bug.

With that try force closing Fb then try it again. Happens to me a lot but that fixes it.

Ouch I don't have that problem. Are you sure you haven't turned off auto sync?

two weeks ago i was running a CoreDroid HD Rom and got the first time push notifications in facebook. i could swear i saw there an option called "push notifications" on/off...
maybe i was wrong.
since that time they never worked again on any rom i tried. (desire z / Raf / Coredroid...)
why we are so outstanding with android? it can't be so hard for the devs of the facebook app to get push working?!
Main thing is the applephone have it!!

Well maybe there was, I'm not sure. I have never seen it. Exactly the situation had them perfect until a week or so ago.
Lets face it the app could do with a facelift compared to the Apple one anyway.

Front facing camera always sideways
*If there is another thread for this please remove

Entertainment center not working

Fingerprint scanner force closes as well as "Battery & data manager" for some reason.

Did you restore system apps with TiBu? That caused alot of FC for me, including Battery & Data manager...

I did with some system apps but those weren't included, TiBu shows I have the 2.3.4 versions of both Battery/data manger and Fingerprint sensor.

does gps work for anyone else?

GPS works perfect, even faster lock-on with 2.3.4 versus 2.2.2.

Anyone try searching a contact and selecting one to make a call? I get a force close

mms doesnt work.
