Hello there,
There's been some Android market issues on my Aria for the past 24 hours. Nothing will download and it's stuck at 'Starting download…'
I've downloaded plenty of apps the previous days, this just started yesterday. Wonder if the Market is overcrowded, is currrently down, or if this is normal sometimes.
Other info / Steps I've taken:
1. I'm running Liberated R12
2. I'm well connected to the internet (can browse, chat, etc)
3. Tried downloading different apps but they all were stuck at Starting download
4. Tried downloading update for other apps instead, same thing
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!

Its definitely not a market issue as I've used it a few times today with no issues, I'm even downloading an update as I'm typing this. My wife also downloaded from the market today with no issues. I'm running cm6 and she has a stock rom.
Maybe try clearing the market data?
Thanks for clearing that up for me. Now we know it's something with my phone… Would you please advice how to clear the Market data? I tried looking for it in the Market app by tapping Menu and other stuffs, but there's no such option.
Thanks again!

Hi there thanks for the quick reply!
I just did the Clear Cache but no can do, it's still stuck at Starting download
Any other suggestions? Lets try to avoid re-flashing please
Okay google sent me an email advising me to login to Talk app. Did that and it didn't solve it.
Anyway I just re-flashed and it's working alright now. Thanks!
Help needed!
Background:
I have installed the saschianooter on my nook touch 1.1.0 . I had earlier installed the earlier version of touchnooter which wasnt compatible with the version of nook that I have. The nook got stuck at the 'forever reading' page and I had to do a restore with the nrestore after repeated failed attempts to restore with reboots.
Problem:
After this I installed the salsichanooter because there was a youtube video on how to go about it.
However unlike the man in the video (and I guess you folks too..!) after erasing, rooting, rebooting, checking/unchecking, signing in on youtube and then syncing gmail, I do not get the market to open up.
I only get upto the page where it asks me to accept the market agreement. After that I only get "no matching content in android market"
I do not get to see a single app on the screen.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks a lot for your help.
please?? anyone??
I am in Canada .. could that be an issue?
It seems to be a recent issue. Try waiting 12-24 hours and trying the market again. It should work after 12-24 hours. I rooted my wife's Nook STR with salsichinooter 0.4 on Black Friday with no problems. I liked it so much that I bought myself a Nook STR a few days ago and had the EXACT same problem you had. I tried several different market apk's just in case, but they all had the same problem. Waiting a day fixed it.
Read the Touchnooter thread and you'll see others with the same problem with that method also.
If it did not automatically unlock after a day, you should try a different vending.apk to see if that fixes it.

Thank you..I was wondering if I should leave the reader on or switch it off for 1-2 days?
Hi,
First time posting here. I've been searching around but I can't seem to find anyone with this issue. Which means I'm likely making a rookie mistake.
I've been running CM7 for a while now w/o issue. Decided to look into the state of ICS and found out JB is where it's at. So I decided to give it a whirl based on some successful posts about it, even at an early stage. I used a 8GB SD and on my latest attempt, I loaded cm-10-20121204-NIGHTLY-encore and gapps-jb-20121011-signed onto EMMC. Afterwards, it booted up fine, got connected to the wifi and looked great. Somewhere along the way, something happens that causes Android to popup a dialog saying it's updating. After that's done, soon after I get a popup that "Unfortunately, Gmail has stopped working." When I open a browser, it immediately closes. If I try the Play store, it pops up, "Network error - retry". So it's like a part of the android comm "stack" gets busted on that update. Weird thing is that if I run the Google search app, it returns results from the web, so some connectivity is still there. But when I click a link, the browser pops up for an instant then closes again. I tried clearing caches, doing resets, reflashing gapps, etc. Nothing seems to work. Is there a log I can activate to maybe get more details?
I've probably tried out 5 installs now, using various recently nightly's up until 1204 w/similar results. I just can't figure out what triggers the update. I even tried w/o installing gapps. In that case, I sent myself a link to the Amazon android app, using the email setup. It installed and I could get apps downloaded and running w/o issue. But eventually after a reboot, android updated and I was right back at the gmail failed mesg, even though I hadn't installed gapps. On another try, I had installed and when I reformatted the SD card, it updated after the reboot and same result.
So, I guess I just don't have a clue at this point as to why this update runs, nor do I know what it changes to break the device. After going rounds w/it for about a week or so, I gave up and reloaded my old 7 image. I'm willing to try again if anyone has a clue what I can do.
Thanks

Did you do a factory reset with recovery before you booted into CM10? It sounds like you have some old apps like Gmail staying on there. Coming from CM7 you really need to wipe first.

Thanks for the reply.
CM7 was installed to SD only. CM10 was installed direct to the EMMC.

What was installed on emmc before? Did you wipe that? You might want to use my format 567 zip on my tips thread linked in my signature.

So i have a Nook Simple Touch I was using about 9 months ago, which fell to disuse for a bit for a variety of reasons. It's running 1.1.0, and is rooted.
I dusted it off to recently give it some more use again, and wanted to update some of the apps, but discovered that the Market doesn't seem to work anymore - I know it used to, but now, whenever I try to download anything, I get a dialog: "Download Errror: Download was unsuccessful, please try again." I've waited an extra day, as I remember that was originally necessary to complete the registration process, but still nothing. Searching (with Market Search) works, even for things I haven't looked up before, and it still recognizes my account, as I see my email, though I noticed that the Nook Touch doesn't get listed in the Google Play Store under devices.
Any ideas what might be going wrong here, or things to try? I'm also willing to upgrade to a newer firmware (1.2.1), but am not sure of the best method to update a rooted device. I can pull it into a separate post, but I'll include it here for now:
I'm sure I'l have to root again, but Is it possible to upgrade the rooted device and then simply re-root, or will I lose everything I've installed? Is it just better to wipe, update and re-root? If so, is there any convenient way to keep all of my settings?
Thanks!

Sad, no one wants to reply. Or perhaps no one knows.
Did a backup, and experimented. I couldn't update directly, so I wiped back to a stock ROM, and upgraded to 1.2.1. Rooted with ManualNooter, and the market worked. So I have no idea what was going on, but it works now. Sadly, a computer accident made me lose my backups (including unrooted images). But at least I've got something functional.
I am currently in the same boat with my NST (BNRV300) running rooted 1.1.2. I last installed and/or updated some Market apps successfully perhaps about a year ago, and have not made any other change to the Nook, so I am at a lost as to what might be the cause. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
For now, my workaround this problem is to download the desired app's apk file from an alternate source (e.g., APKPure) then side-load it onto the NST.
My guess would be that somehow your authtication with Google has been lost on the device.
If you go to the PlayStore on a computer do you see your NST listed as a device, and if so, when you select an app that way does it eventually appear on your NST?

I think you are right -- my NST credential with the Playstore must have expired or more likely become invalid when I changed my password on my Gmail account.
If so I can't figure out how to re-validate the credential: I recall entering my Google login/password via the YouTube app during the course of rooting my NST using the MinimalTouch tool's 2-phase process, but now I can't even get the YouTube app to start (error message: ... problem starting up, please check your network connection and system time).
Look here
I responded to a related issue awhile back. Not sure if the info at the link might kick-start the signing in process.
Thanks for the pointer.
I decided to go the route of "factory reset, upgrade to 1.2.1 and re-root using Nook Manager", as simply re-rooting 1.1.2 using the old tool (Minimal Touch) is tedious & somewhat error-prone -- plus I'd like to try out 1.2.1.
That was what I would usually suggest but the farther I have gotten from that "day 1", the less likely I am to take/offer the same advice. I've made so many modifications at this point I don't think I'd ever get it back to its present state! Back up early and often...and, apparently, access the Market every so often, even if you don't want anything.
Good luck!
Hi,
I have an Acer A501 on which I installed CWM and a custom rooted 3.2 ROM shortly after purchasing it in order to use a certain app that required root permissions. I noticed that after the root, the device would give me a "server error" when trying to download apps from Google Play, but I didn't really pay much attention to it, since I didn't download new apps very often and I figured I could just get APKs from other sources. Recently, though, I have been trying to give the tablet a new life by getting Google Play back to work (since searching for APKs on dodgy sites isn't exactly the most reliable way of getting new apps) and maybe installing ICS. I flashed a stock 3.2 ROM and got rid of CWM, since I assumed it was the reason for Google Play not working, but apparently I was wrong, since I am still getting that error. I have also been trying to flash a stock ICS ROM, but every single one I've tried so far shows an error (the Android robot with the yellow warning sign) almost immediately after starting to flash. Does anyone know the solution to these problems? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Bump... Anyone?

Yeah, I remembered I had the same error.
Anyway, pls try to check this link...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733038
In my case, I just removed the existing account. Then, add the same account & it is working OK.
Thanks for the link. As for removing and re-adding the account, I have done that multiple times, to no avail. I have tried force-stopping and clearing the cache of Google Services Framework, as suggested in the thread, but now, I get a connection error merely trying to add a Google account to the device... I even did a factory reset, but I still can't add a Google account, as if the Google Services settings hadn't been reset at all.
EDIT: I just realized that the reason I got a connection error after the factory reset was not being connected to Wi-Fi. However, after clearing the cache and data of Market, Google Services Framework and Download Manager, I get the same connection error while trying to add a Google Account, even while connected to a Wi-Fi network.
EDIT 2: I have rebooted the device, and now I'm back where I started. The error code is RPC:S-7:AEC-0 LOWQ-XYAM-M7MTS.
Any Luck? Same problem here with a stock A500 after a factory reset. I've tried two good google accounts. Getting "Google Talk Authentication Failed" and " Error retrieving data from server"
