OK I think I just helped my father-in-law with this problem so maybe this may help;
1 - setting/applications/manage applications/market
2- In market - clear cache, then unistall updates if you have that option also.
3- back back back and open up market, agree to terms again and it should be working.
At least that worked for us, his market was FCsing every time he went into his downloads. Hope this helps
no.............it didn't work :-(
Did you do the "lag" fix ? That caused me problems with not being able to download from the market. After a reboot, all of the files were doneloaded and installed without any prompts.
I have no Idea what the "lag" fix is, and I did reboot my phone. When I try to download it just says "download unsuccessful"

My market just displays "starting dowload" indefinitely when i try to download anything. And my google talk closes the instant that it opens. Any ideas on a fix?

Have either of you done a titanium backup?

I had that problem yesterday I had to un-root the phone I can't post the URL but you can find the thread in the 2nd page of fascinate and devlopement forum
it was the only solution I found and it helped
Im Having the same problem. Happened after flashing JT's clean ROM.
It's from restoring apps with Titanium Backup. For whatever reason, whenever I do this, it breaks my market no matter what ROM and whether I have Voodoo or not. Restore to stock, re-root, and everything, and you need to restore every app manually.
I did not use Titanium Backup.
I posted a new thread about this, seemed to work for me and a few others I tried. Check "for anyone having market issues"
Been having the same problem. I used titanium to freeze then defrost Market. Then did the same thing to Market Updater. Market works perfect now, but it reverted from the Froyo version back to Eclair. But it's better than not working at all.
Promise this will work. Just go to titanium and click on Market and then click Wipe Data. Do the same with Market Updater. All will be fixed.

This is an old issue, with several things to try.
I would first suggest looking through your application list and uninstalling any 0.00 sized files left as ghosts of apps manually removed. There will possibly be other smallish sized files left behind as well if you can identify them.
Force stop and clear market cache
Boot into recovery, clear cache and reboot.

I tried everything you just said above exactly. It still has the same result: "Starting Download" indefinitely.
I also tried using Titanium Backup to wipe data for market and market updater, but that didn't work either. I'm pretty frustrated that I can't figure this out
Got a solution. I was having the same problem with my Evo. Go to applications, then go to installed on sd. Move everything over to the phone. Then go to all applications and clear cache/data/and force stop it. That did the trick. You can move everything back to sd card after it fixes the market issue and it shouldn't happen again.

I also had this problem, I had to remove lagfix, restore older backup and start all over. It worked and all is well for me now. It sucks but it worked. I hope someone else can find a better solution. I even had jt reply and he said he didnt have that prob. Hopefully some will figure it out.

Uninstalling the froyo market and reverting back to the 2.1 market resolved this issue for me on 2 phones ... Mine and the wifee.
I had this issue, and I found out something peculiar. I was running JT's Super Clean rom with Market 2.2 and a Voodoo kernel, and the Factory Reset ran, but did not actually reset anything. After turning Voodoo off, I was able to Factory Reset, which fixed the Market issues.
Same thing here...
I was having this issue as well. Had to install JT Clean rom w/ wiping cache and data. Tried every suggestion in the book but none fixed it but wiping cache and data and installing JT Clean Rom.

I was installing a battery mod on my vibrant. Its rooted and stock. after installing and restarting my phone its stuck at the boot menu. I went to recovery mode and reinstalled my packages, wiped the cache and data clean but still not resolved. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Has anybody had any issues with downloading apps from the market after updating to the newest leak? The market will download the app and upon completion give the error Download Unsuccessful, please try again later. Ive tried wiping data and Cache, reloading the rom, Odin'ing back to DL09 (which worked) but after following all the steps to get back to EB01 or even DL30 I cannot install any app from the market. I've looked through the forums and found a few things like clearing the download manager's cache and the same for the market but that didn't help. I also force updated the market to the newest version and that didn't help either. I've also tried intalling apps that are backed up on my SD card and they will not install. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, my phone isn't currently activated, I will be re-activating it soon, but I'm not sure if that could have anything to do with the problem.
Did you odin the ed01 radio?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I've not had any problems. Hopefully someone else can help you.
But remember, this is the developer's forum. Troubleshooting goes in the General forum, or in the thread of the ROM you are using.
Odin'ed the EB01 radio. Followed the instructions 100%. Everything else seems to work great. I'm at a loss. & my apologies for posting in the wrong place, can this thread be moved?
Try flashing the new 2.3.2 market, it can be found in the development section
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Just use the cwm zip there
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I have already flashed the 2.3.2 market. It didnt help
I think I've got it. I found another post where a guy had a similar issue. He also had a Fascinate that was not activated. I turned off the "Mobile Data" in the notification bar and apps began installing properly. It does seem to be a Froyo related issue (or security measure) of some kind. Seems to be resolved. Thanks for the help guys!!
Very odd, you could try going to setting, applications, manage applications, select market in the "all" applications section and clear data, on the market only.

Its just odd, mine works fine

Dude you needs to redo it.
Boot into cwm, wipe cache a couple time, wipe data / factory reset a couple of times, and the reinstall your ROM. Hope it helps.

i had that prlblem on my gfs phone. i think using voodoo this go round on froyo mayb solved it for me though.
Been trying to solve it for hours!
I NEED my Android stylin' for school!
I press install, then it downloads, but doesn't say the app is installed / the app isn't installed. Help meh.
How do I fix this, so I can install apps?

Edit:
I tried CM7 again but this time, a little combination of two instructions.
Before, I couldn't fix the market problem, like anything I tried (clear cache, data in the manage applications settings) didn't work. And the uninstall updates wasn't visible. So today I tried again but with some different instructions, and this time it worked! So glad I can use CM7 on my phone, so awesome.
Are you using a stock ROM or a custom ROM?

I've been having this problem lately (on both Bandroid's ROM and rdannar's "diet" stock ROM) with the new marketplace.
Even on updates some apps will go through the whole process, and even act like they're downloading, then will still show up as needing an update.
This didn't help you, but you're not alone?
Rebooting (sometimes) helps.
Do you have the new market yet? I notices when my phone switched to the new one it took a few hours for it to get back to normal. Also, it mat not show its correct status in the market app and if you leave and go back it may say it is finnished.

This is crazy, I don't know why it's doing this, I can't even do gapps because the market won't install the apps.
Market
version 2.3.6
and their is no unistall updates button either. Mannn this is so frustrating.
Wait... are you installing Gapps after installing a ROM? Which ROM? Are you using 3g or wifi?

I have this same problem. I can't successfully install any app via the android Market. I tried clearing Market cache and data with no improvement. If I choose install an app, it looks like it downloads in the status bar, but doesn't actually list it as "Successfully Installed" as it normally would.
If I look in the Market's My Downloads it lists the app but says "Free" next to it instead of "Installed" or "Update". If I then try to install it I get "Sorry! The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Force Close.
I also rolled back the updates on my Android Market with no improvement in functionality.
I think the issue started when I went to Android 2.2.
I'm not clear on how to solve this problem.
Same problem! !!!!!!! Any solution??
unmount SD Card
A temporary fix would be unmounting the sd card and then installing the app. It happens on some roms..hope it fixes...works in my case.
my market keeps fc! The lady just had her baby and i won't be near a computer for a while to re flash. Any ideas? It force closes every time i open market. Just started today. Even uninstalled updates
Sent from my MB520 using xda premium
congrats on the baby!
hm, try uninstalling market, and reinstalling 3.4.4 apk. also, check if you have vending in /system. What rom are you on? wipe cache/dalvik?
Thank you! I actually tried to get into clockwork to try fix permissions and hit reboot recovery and it bricked! straight to boot loader every time with tons of errors. It sucked because i had no phone to send baby pictures with . Re flashed cm7 and issue seems gone now. Thanks for the suggestion!
