Post within the ROM thread you are running... This is going to be a specific issue with your custom ROM.

I'm running DamageControl v2.07.2
I just tried wiping and flashing and its still won't let me download.

Are you tryin to download something specific? Some apps in the market dont work. Like the htc battery widget and other htc apps.

No these are all apps I've downloaded before with this same ROM. Right now I'm trying for Google Voice

Try going to setting>applications>manage apps find Market.. Click on it.. Clear cache

Nope not working. The strange thing is I had just downloaded and installed Pandora just last night from the market. I'm trying to get it working through my wifi now to see if its a my cell network.

Nope that didn't work lol.

Try settings> wireless & networks> Mobile networks
If its on then turn it off and back on.. If it off, then turn it on
ALSO
setting> about phone> system update.. And update profile

sign into gtalk. i know it sounds weird but it is a fix for downloads stalling or hanging at 0%

I just read some place about the gtalk but i can't get logged into it. Seems to just sit there trying for ever.

Did you update you profile?
Its not your market.. Its your internet, sounds like you cant use anything.

The profile update failed
I can get to webpages and get email and stuff.

Does it say evdo on your taskbar next to your signal bars?
Whats your prl and pri?

PRI Version is flipz_01 and PRL is 60664 and it does say EV

And you have tried wiping factory, dalvik, and ext partition. And then reflashing a clean rom???
Make nandroid backup before, so if it doesnt fix it, you can go back to your current rom.
Also i have read here, someone had to call sprint and have them reset there profile. Or something like that. Since you cant even update your profile in settings.
you would just have to wait till tom during business hours.

yup, i had the same problem, check ur system apps if u have gtalk.apk or gtalkservice or something similiar. If not, you gota somehow put them back on, i just did a reinstall using ur same rom.

I flashed to fresh 1.1 and did a MSL reset but still can't download from the market or connect to gtalk. I also had to drive about 30 miles today to another town and tried while i was there still nothing even did the PRL and Updated Profile.

Paid apps and free apps doing this?
I had a thought but lost it as I was typing the rest of this. Sorry, will post back later if it comes back.
EDIT:
Oh yea!
Try to create a different google account and setup the phone with a whole new GMail account. I know its a hassle, but might work.

I've only tried free apps and pretty much everything under the popular free section.
I'll try the new account and see what happens.

*Warning* New Market(Tmo) Is being pushed OTA

The new market will give FC's and stop you from DL'ing apps from the market. The new market from T-Mo has a new tab and isnt compat with any custom rom using test keys.
Care to cite a source for us?
Edit:
As of the... shoot what is it? The second newest CM (The other one seems to have a bad zip file uploaded D: as 3 downloads of the file with identical sizes, none of them are valid/complete) I can still download, update, and run apps from the marketplace. :3 (1:25 AM PST 12/6/09)
this sucks but i dont think it would affect the canadian users.
Had no problem downloading anything on my phone. The only inconvenience really was that it removed the custom Market Icon as well as the Downloads tab and replaced it with a T-Mobile tab. There was another small nuisance where old app that I have backed up and had installed using an app manager are now showing up as having an update available (I have them backed up and install them manually because updates have crippled the app, so I obviously don't want the update).
There is a very simple way to revert back to the old market. Menu>Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Market>Uninstall Updates.
Note, your old apps will still show up as having updates available, if you have installed backups from your sd card. Uninstalling, rebooting, and reinstalling did not work for me.
I have g1 with cyanogen 4.2.8 and run partioned sd card for my apps. I just went to the market after reading this and had 5 updated apps. updated and installed all with no problems.
Will have to admit that I am not clear what the orginial post was about or what he is actually trying to say. My understanding is that tmobile is trying to go after the rooted phones out there?

Nope... I'm on Dwang's v1.13 and got the update. No issues with downloading apps. T-mobile isn't trying to mess with rooted phones...just pushing T-mo specific stuff to our phones to "add value" to our Market experiences. I think Verizon does similar stuff on the Eris and Droid.
I am unable to install after the update, it will download, then force close upon installation attempt. I have to remove the update (setting, manage applications) each time I want to download from the market. Yes, it keeps updating on its own after each uninstall.
Nope, T-Mobile is not going after rooted phones. The new market update allows you to get paid apps and have them billed to your phone bill, rather then using Google Check Out. I think Sprint and Verizon are doing the same thing as well, but T-Mobile was the first to implement.

Since uninstalling the update using the method I posted, the Market update has not been reappied by T-Mobile. I think you might have other problems.

I don't think Mlign's Hero rom will get it since it's a 1.5 firmware... but I may be wrong.
I'm saying that because I haven't had a map update yet with the nav option.
I've had Market 1660 since it leaked about a week ago.
The only new tab that I notice is the one that says T-Mobile where it used to say Downloads.
Those that are gettinc FC's should try to get a logcat and maybe try clearing their cache. If that doesn't work then do a backup using nandroid then try pulling the /system/app/Vending.apk file, resign it and then push it back and see if it works then. That may be the reseason why mine works and none of yours do because I've included the newer version in my CHM Theme. However I don't have the alternate form of payment (onto the T-Mobile bill) as of yet. I just bought something domestic ($.99) and the only option that I had through Google Checkout was credit card. Those that have the new market (1660)... do you have any other payment options?

I'm wondering if it's something that T-Mobile has to activate themselves?
And I don't think that CM is going to do anything because of the C&D that he recieved after he released the 1.6 Market prematurely onto 1.5 devices.

probably though i dont know why theyre being so quiet about it, i would think if it comes to messing with your money they would at least make sure everyone knows so they dont accidentally do buy something then see it on there bill(it could happen! lol)
and i was hoping maybe cm would suggest like a work around or a solution. well, i dont really need the new market.. dont like the new category(there suggestions suck) and i actually like the google checkout! do you think there are any side effects from uninstalling the new market?

you wouldn't have done a nandroid backup pre-morph, did you?
If so then restore and see if the market updates later.

[Q] Market "First Download" problem.

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.

Are you trying to download via WiFi or data, there may be issues there.

Could it maybe be becouse I updated my android market to the new one but it had errors and always closed so I put the firmware back on new now its the old one again?

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.

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...

EB13 Market Issues...missing apps

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.

Yep looks like Google fixed it...Slingplayer is now showing with an update to boot.
