For some reason today I can't download any apps. All I get s "Starting Download". I have tried wifi as well to no avail. I can get email, surf the web and make calls. I cleared the cache in the market app. Is anyone else getting this or know how to fix this? I am rooted with stock rom.
Same issue here. No changes on the phone & i could download apps 2 days ago no probs.
I am on the T-Mobile G2 (Hero) UK. Running rooted on SenseHero 2.1 ROM.
Anyone else? Ive tried rebooting & switching wifi off. Also email & web wwork ok.
here's what ive found...and i did this change today... looks like this may be the fix!
"Have you recently changed your Gmail account from [email protected] to [email protected]? Doing so will prevent you from downloading anything from the Market and will prevent you from using Google Chat. It's a known problem and Google are working on a fix."
Looks like it may be the market. Just saw on engadget that alot of people are having issues with the entire market. I can see the apps, i just cant download them. some people cant even see them. hopefully it will be fixed soon.

This question might be asked before but i couldn't find exactly the same problem.
In the tab "Status and Events" in All Contacts, it won't update mine events? I know that i have unread messages but the phone won't download them..
Does anyone els have this problem? Any solution?
Just me who has this problem?
Me too. In previous Leo roms on my Blackstone it worked fine. Not on Leo now.
The only solution HTC support had was to reset the phone. And that i could work better with wifi.
After i did a reset, it worked one time?!
I emailed them again, if i solve this i let you know.
What build did it work with?
Youtube perhaps?
My facebook sync stopped working as soon as I installed the YouTube app (using a T-Mobile device so it was not on the phone by default). After i Uninstalled it, all is well.
EDIT: SOrry my mistake. Seems it wasn't Youtube but the "Turbo" CAB i installed from the tips & tricks thread. As soon as I got rid of that, updates were working again.
All of a sudden I got "An error had occurred while fetching data [null]" every time I want to see my live feed and my own profile from my Nexus One phone (stock Facebook app). I have no problem accessing it from the browser or PC.
Strange thing though, when i log out, then re-login using OTHER facebook account, I can see the live feed and the profile page no problem. Everything works fine again.
However, once i login using MY account, problem starts again.
I have hard reset my N1, problem still there.
Any idea? Please help.
I like the stock Facebook app on N1, don't really want to install another app or use browser to access it.
Oh and my N1 is stock, no root yet.
Thank you
Calm down and take a deep breath I have the same problem. It is not your phone it is facebook server. I had the problem yesterday shortly and today in the morning. Now it seems ok for me...wait until they repair the problem and use the browser application in the meantime...
i had the same issue also, mine seems to be working now though.
so server related not my phone?
phew...
mine still isn't working though
still not working? dang, just give it some time, mine was out a good 6-7 hours
I've had this issue on the Desire ROM where the live feed on the Friend Stream just refuses to update... I was "locked out" for a few days.
strange, it wasn't working for a while until u put the facebook widget on my home. click on the facebook icon, then ta-da! all working again.
Not sure if it was a coincidence...
It's a problem with some 3rd party apps that push data to your facebook feed and the client's interpretation of the XML. Zynga apps being one of them.
You can experiment by hiding various 3rd party apps form your facebook feed (or logging in when you get the error on a computer and seeing what apps were there and not on your phone).
Once they're hidden (or, over time as they pass further down the history list) your feed will work fine.
i don't play games on facebook, nor have i allow any games to be on my profile.
strange, but it works ok now.
Not just games this can be form ANY third party app that has an illegal character in it....this includes quizes, "who visited your profile", horoscopes, any of those things, anything that is not a pure-facebook update.
Same problem here on htc desire S. On wifi all is ok. On 3g ''An error had occurred while fetching data (null.)'' This is very strange.
Anyone else having this problem with the facebook app on their HD2?
All status updates in the news feed appear to be wall posts to the same user (see pic attached).
Also Status Updates are just blank.
I've tried full reset, removing my memory card, and literally just installing the facebook app (from marketplace) and I still get the same issue.
oh, the same on my Facebook Client...
same here, this was reported in the energy rom thread too.
seems to be an error at facebooks end and theres not much we can do....
I would recommend using touch.facebook.com in the meantime....
LOL, yeah got the same here, glad it's not just me,
Also using the energy rom here,
I've got the same... It's such a mess now
Same here.,really messes it up.,hopefully they will fix soon
seems to be working again!
I have this problem, but it hasn't started working again for me! If I log out and back in, it will gather updates once, but then it will stop working again!
Arghhhhhh!
I have the same problem with updates, my app won't update at all even if I hit refresh.
log out of facebook and log back in every time you want it to update. or use your browser.
Hey guys!
so my mum gave me her Htc hero yesterday
I wiped it and then I got informed of a software update so I did it now when I try and download an app its stuck on Starting Download
This never happened when my mum had it.
I have look on the internet and tried all the options.
What else could I do?
Reboot it.
I assume you're using the official version. How long does it get stuck for?
I have trying rebooting it
Yeah I am using the official version. and it just wont start I have been trying for days
Would maybe using one of the versions of android on the forum would sort it out
I've had the same issue before, just check if you are able to connect to the GTalk server, ie fire up the Google Talk IM app. If you can't connect, your Market hasn't got a chance.
My advice here would be to reset the phone & log into your Google account.
I had this issue when I changed my googlemail.co.uk address to GMail.com, & another time when I added more then 1 Googlemail account to the phone.
Installed the Dexter upgrade 1.2. Update went flawlessly. Followed all the steps outlined in earlier posts. Now have Calendar!!!! and market icon. When I try to add my gmail account I get the following message -
"Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server."
I can sign into my gmail account through the browser...but can't seem to connect via the "add a google account" or through the gmail icon (which was not a problem before the upgrade.)
Also tried to set up a new gmail account. Get the same message.
Any ideas?
Make sure your date and time is set correctly
Time and date are set properly. But I switched to automatic just in case...
Still get the same message. Worth a try though. Thanks.
Market issues
I am having the same issue with the google / gmail account setup. It does not appear to be connecting through the wireless when connecting to google. I have let the inital connection fail then it sets up the wireless and that gives the message about not being able to connect to data services (cell network). I can browse with the browser fine and is otherwise normal but will not set up google accounts. Did the factory wipe and the install went great without any other issues.
Cannot get to market HELP!
Ok this is a major problem, market won't allow you to sign in with your google account. Ever since the update to 1.2 is like they put a lock on the market! I wiped both the user settings as well as the cache before updating to 1.2 and I am still locked out. Can anyone clarify what I am doing wrong?!
still not working
OK...came to my office and tried a different wireless network..not that I thought that was the problem, but anything is a shot. I have wiped the cache, etc. et.c
Still a no go.
All the workarounds that I have found use You Tube...but A7 doesn't have You Tube and no other sites that I can access offer it.
Since this thread isn't on the "developer" part of XDA not sure if anyone who can help is seeing it.
Here's the upside...I didn't have market before..so I haven't lost anything except a lot of time.
Has anyone gone back to the previous mod version to see if it doing the same thing? Could it be an issue with Google and not the mod?
I have not done that...but will try it tonight. I had othe problems with 1.1...FC on both sound and brightnes and the calendar, so I went right to 1.2 after that rather than load anything back onto the device.
This has been happening since yesterday. the g tablet section is having the same issue, as are many other I'm sure. Google seem to be screwing with the market.

BTW...took about 30 seconds to install...what a pleasure.
That worked great!
My other A7 is now working without the Market enabler, so looks like Google was screwing with stuff yesterday...
Thanks for all the help
