Unable to update google maps - Desire Themes and Apps

Hey people. I was wondering if anyone else seems to be having issues with updating google maps to latest version on a rooted desire with old apps to sd enabled? It downloads but fails to install
I've had a quick look but can't find anything.this happens on all roms that I try.

Make sure it is not running and if it is force close it, then uninstall it. Try unistalling it using a different tool like quick system info.

YouTube update wont install

Im using the miui rom and already tried uninstalling YouTube via titanium backup.. Whats the deal?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Got the same issue running CM6. It says the app is not signed correctly
Delete it from system/app then adb push it. Everyone had the same issue when gmail and car home came to the market.
New YouTube is stunning though. Hint to what Gingerbread will be like?
Sent from my HTC Desire
But why is it? Because of the custom rom? Also, how do i do the adb thing? Could you be more precise?

I'm not entirely sure, but I think its because its originally stored in system/app and after we update, it tries to store on your SD, without properly deleting the system version.
Something like that anyway

Any of you having network problems with the new youtube app?
I keep getting a network error, error 400 I think it is. Its not because I don't have internet, because I have no problem using the browser or market. Any know solution?

tried deleting youtube.pk in system/app and then installing but no joy
anybody? i want it too!! why doesnt it install??
Uninstalling in titanium backup reboot than install in market

To use Widgets; apps must be stored in phone memory. Once you update YouTube goto settings>applications>manage applications select YouTube and move to phone.

A Solution
I had the same problem - tried installing and got package incorrectly signed, solved it by uninstalling YouTube with Titanium Backup, restart, and then installing from the market.
If i tried installing straight after the uninstall it failed - meaning restart is a must.
Using OpenDesire 4.0.36.
I have manage to install new ver.
first delete from system/app/youtube.apk than also
in data/app/youtube.apk
restart
& now download new Youtube from market or if you tray to install
before downloaded apk file ,should be in SD/download/download3.apk
or some other nummber

Okay im really getting pissed off from this sh#t! i have tried EVERYTHING thats been explained here but it just doesnt work, and here's why i think: when i delete the youtube apk with root explorer and restart, its there again! it comes back :S and the installation is always unsuccesfull!
please please PLEASE! what can i do about this? im already sick and tired enough to just throw a new rom on there
@ mod: sorry for the language, please close the thread im just gonna download the new miui rom with the new youtube cooked in.
install worked no problems for me, deleted youtube.apk from /system/app/ using root explorer.. rebooted and installed from the market with no issues
I can't find YouTube app on market, it just doesnt show up!!
When i go to "m.google.pt/youtube/" it says that my device is not compatible with youtube... lol
I have a Vodafone 845 that come with stock youtube player... lolz....this sucks :s

Market Apps will not install

I've tried searching for this but I haven't found anything that works. I was on the SiulMagic's sense port and wiped/flashed to MIUI earlier and began to have issues with downloading apps from the Market. Hours and 3 different ROMs later I'm not back on the Sense ROM and I still cannot download anything. I'm getting a "Download was unsuccessful, please try again error" on every app and I have no idea what to do.
I've tried every combination of Force Stops and Data Clears that I can and it isn't helping.

That's strange to be honest. Did you go into titanium backup and then find the market and then select wipe data? Might help
god i am dieing with the same issue did you ever get yours going
Wild shot here can your try clear data, and all that jaz then try to uninstall update for market, then try?
Already tried all that did a superwipe but every time you first launch the market it automatically updates

I think all you need is to delete the smdl2tmp1 from the folder .android_secure on your sdcard. Its known to cause problems - helped me also.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Yep, exact same issue here. I flashed siulmagic's new port last night and since then have been unable to download from the market no matter how many different wipes and roms I try. I made a nandroid before flashing the sense rom of my perfectly functioning CM7 and even going back to that doesn't allow me to download from the market anymore. This is pretty messed up and hopefully a fix is found for this soon

Do this...
After alot of testing I have found out the problem does not have to do with your rom or your phone its your google account try testing with a friends account or create a random one it will download apps fine but even if you get a new phone using your current account you will have the same issue. For now you should be able to use the desk top site.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Alright, so yeah it is definitely not a rom issue and I was able to fix my problem by accessing the Android Market website from my phone and downloading an app from there. It downloaded and installed successfully from there and now my market is downloading all my apps normally on my phone from the market app itself
just tried it did not work for me sent google a market help message heres to hoping
Aaaand my post has been succesfully ignored..

A long shot: unmount sdcard, try to install something.
A very long shot: do you have enough space for installing stuff?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Sounds like an issue you need to talk to a developer about fixing. This error that you are recieving, is the after math of a developer including and old outdated Market app. It would help to wipe or update but it seems like you are having issues with that too. You need to talk to a developer about this old Market app issue, and how it can be fixed. Hope I helped.
Thanks did that last night, market help got back to me at 5 with a message saying they are working on it. All of of the sudden everything is working perfect don't no what they did but glad they did it.

no apps market

hi
just got a new htc desire hd
and there is no android market on the phone
how can i install it to the phone
thanks
Are you definitely sure that it isn't there? Considering that it does come installed stock.
Otherwise, install it from this link: http://code.google.com/p/synergy-base/source/browse/trunk/system/app/Vending.apk?r=239

You really should go back to wherever you bought it from and ask for an explanation.
If that doesn't work out for you, a simple way to install it without connecting it to your computer would be to install ROM Manager and then install Google Apps from there. I personally would take the new Market from the XDAForums.
Hey, if you are going to install the market, it might as well be the new one.
How can he install ROM Manager easily without the Market, and what use would that be? I've merely provided the apk, that's all there is to it.
To the OP, remember to allow installing from unknown sources under Settings > Applicationa
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
I see your point.
I was just assuming that if he didn't have the market, he probably didn't have some g apps either.
Doing it either way is easy enough, and in any case, and if you're going to install through an apk, then you might as well take the new one (that said, I haven't checked out your link as yet).
Does ROM Manager give a flashable package or a bunch of apks? Because again, if he isn't rooted, he can't flash zips either...knowing ROM Manager, I'm presuming they are zips.
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
ROM Manager deals with installing Google Apps the same way it deals with any other ROM. It is a pretty useful thing tto hhave, especially because a lot of ROMs ship without Google apps.
So yeah, I'm guessing that you would have to root.

That's really strange, I've had no problems at all with mine! What ROM are you running? Maybe its a bug?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Sugggest you back to shop to ask for an explain. By default it comes with HTC Sense and all Google apps. If you sure it is not there, maybe the shop flash you another customized rom?
as far as know its the standard rom the phone came with
its wasn't root etc.
its not a UK phone its from Kuwait but it has English etc on it
i was wondering if it doesn't have apps market as standard in that country??
i got it online so would mean posting back, emailed them and that dont understand why it didnt have the market on.

If you go to settings > about phone > software, could you post the info from there on here please? Just to determine whether your ROM is standard or not
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
You can get the latest Android Market.apk from here.
(It's also on XDA in a few threads.)
EDIT: Sorry, nevermind. I missed the replies on page 1.

Hmm...all stock. Strange.
Did you install the Vending.apk from my link, and did that work? 1.86 is very old, that might be why it doesn't work as well.
If mine didn't work, I can fetch the previous version for you.

Maybe you could try deleting the data from the app by going to settings > applications > manage applications and find market and press delete data or whatever hope this works!

issues with the market freeze

im having issues with the market freezing and causing my Note to hang . this started while i was using Kingdroid 4.x and now on Criskelo. the only way is now to hard reboot the device to be able to use the device again. any ideas/suggestions. i think it might be the avg im using but i could be wrong.
Did you try to update the Market to v3.4.4?
If not, do a search here on XDA on how to do it.
it is on 3.4.4

Unable to click install button from apk file

I am currently running the latest paranoid android Rom on my nexus 4 using Franco's milestone 2 kernel. I am having problems installing apps that I downloaded (e.g., Adobe flash update). What happens is I can see the installation screen with the different permissions, but I cannot click on the install button. It works when I install apps from the play store but not through root browser, astro, es explorer. I have tried other apks to make sure it's not just that one file. As well, I had even removed those dimmer apps like twilight and lux before installing. I also stopped the running applications and then tried installing. I'm stumped and I have no idea what to try next. Maybe there is another uncommon app that I need to uninstall before installing off my card...
If anyone has any suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated.

you can not install adobe flash from the play store, flash does not support android 4.2.2. yoy would need to install it from the adobe site list of past flash updates. same with any other app from the play store that doesnt support the nexus 4 or the right android version.

Also AppWidgetDisplay for Sony Smartwatch causes such behavior.
There is another way which will always work, If you don't want to waste your time.
Just use adb to install. As shown in the post below.
