[Q] DroidX Froyo market issue

Updated sucessfully to Froyo! Everything runs great.... Except that I can't connect to the market.
I get a time out error/can't connect. Gmail and all other apps have no issues.
I have tried this solution:
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/06/12/tip-market-app-issue-in-froyo/
and, this solution:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/team-chaos/49974-market-update-fix-froyo-leaked-version-2-a.html
without success. The second one caused a boot loop and I had to re-flash .604 via SBF/RSD.
Anyone have any suggestions or a fix for the DroidX?

Both of those links were for the droid. Im have the same issue though.

I was aware that they were for the Droid... I was just hoping that they would work for the DX.... although after looking at the build.prop files I now realize that was a REALLY STUPID NOOB error.
I guess I was hoping that the .zip's contained some code that would change a setting and not RR the whole file.
If someone knows what setting needs to be changed please let me know. For now, I'll have to go back to 2.1 if I can't get the market.

I don't think its an X on Froyo issue, Markets not working on my EVO and X

Google server error?
Other Android users(non-Droid X Froyo users) have reported the same issue in another forum. Seems to be a "Google side" error. Probably just maintenance because of all the Froyo releases this month.

Markets back up

Cleared cache in Market all is good

I was having the same issue yesterday, but tried it today and all works again. Must have been a Google problem.

Good info bro! I cleared the market data and all fine now. Thanks

How do you clear the market cache? I can't seem to find it.

Worked perfect with root explorer. Thx

Market didn't work at first, then it did but with weird apps i never heard of in the Top Paid, then a few hours later almost all my previously installed apps showed up, then the market seemed normal expect for like 10 apps that i can live without for now wont show up.

It was a market issue. Market works great now!

5.0 maps cannot get directions. Anyone else?

So i have the new google maps (5.0) and i am getting a gps lock in seconds but it never gets directions.
I let it go for 30 mins on the way home today an it never loaded directions. I could see my location behind the scene following my location perfectly.
Anyone else experience this?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck.

I had this problem too....I had to uninstall and reinstall the previous version of it I had in titanium backup.

Well I decided to change kernels...I'm on jt's superclean .9 rom and I went to rom manager and installed 11/11 stable kernel and now the new maps are working. I'm not sure if that was my fix but it's working now.

i just heard on IRC that this is rom specific. and seems to be doing this on sonofskywalker3's roms. you could try to change roms and see if that helps. me... i'm gonna stay and wait for an update. I love how my phone is set up and everything,

I had the problem on his... But I decided to do a full wipe and clean install of it... did NOT restore maps (from backups) and all was well.
ps. I did not previously do a full wipe when i first went to his...

It will not work with the Skywalker roms, I tried everything. It does however work just fine with the jt superclean and the 12/16 release. ( I put on the voodoo5 )

This is going to sound lame, but can anyone shed light on how to actually LOOK at the map in 3d ???? I know they don't have it here in LA, but I looked up San Francisco, and still no dice.
What am I missing ????

Froyo. In the help section or the description of google maps in the market says u must have 2.2 and multitouch screen which fascinate has.

Well I have different problem with 5.0. When I'm in my neighborhood, I have no problem with gps. When I'm in another city the gps has problem locating my current location and I live in NYC.

You don't need froyo for the 3d view. Use both thumbs one in each corner of the screen, and drag down simultaneously.

Trouble installing apps after dl30

So after flashing the leak, i found that i couldnt install any apps except for tapatalk. It seems to start download then stop right there. Also im having problems with the Facebook sync. Any help is appreciated thanks.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk

I have exactly the same problem (installing apps and facebook)
I have no idea how to fix :/

Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All>Market>Clear Data

Ditto. DL30 install went fine, set it up w/ my Google account, even made sure I was in Talk (that was mentioned somewhere), went to Market to install Titanium Backup, no go. Starts downloading, then just quits, with no message or error.
Hmm...

Didn't help, unfortunately...

FDro -> this did not work for me

Its funny that this was brought up with the DL30 leak because I am having this exact same market downloading issue on DL09 that I've been running w/o no issues for about 2 weeks now. App states "Downloading" then stops w/o any errors. Have already tried the clear Market Cache, also tried the Uninstall Updates, no go on either. Issue is with both WiFi and 3G.

+1 here. I've re-formatted/cleared/reflashed, waited for the market to update, pretty much everything I can think of so far.
Everything else (and I mean everything) is fine! 3G data and Wifi are both working very well for browsing/e-mail/etc. Just the market is broken.
At one point I did have Angry Birds get to about 6% downloaded, but it was VERY slow. It's the only app I had start downloading at all.
I hope somebody smart swoops in with a "you guys are idiots ... do this" post

I am having the same issue. Tried clearing data. I have no "uninstall updates".

There's some chatter in irc that's it's a server issue, not the market app...

Same here. Any fix? I cleared data under settings no luck yet. Hoping for a fix.

So this is a problem on DL09 too? This could be a Google problem.

is there a way to update to new market app ? maybe it will help.

Yeah I think there's something wrong with the server..couldn't update any apps on mine or my fiancées fascinates

Classic bad timing on our part! I love it!
I can and shall wait until tomorrow. Besides, I wiped my SD card and have about 12GB of MP3s to re-sync. Plenty of stuff to do.
Thanks!!!

its back for me!

App Market is in and out .. Rumors are it is going web based tomorrow .. Know what that means? Google Music .. FINGERS CROSSED!

Yeah, Google Music would be awesome. Oh, and I was just able to do my downloads and updates about 2 minutes ago. Maybe I got lucky?

Too funny. At first I thought it was due to froyo as well. But no. Just the market. Appears to be up for me now. Just installed xda

We ALL got lucky today! LOL .. I have been waiting for this day for months .. now I will take over the world!

Anybody having issues with the Market?

Just wondering if anyone besides myself is having market issues?
Whenever I attempt to download any app...I keep getting the message the download was unsuccessful. I wiped the data and everything on the Market app and still couldn't download any apps. I even uninstalled the updates on the market and still I couldn't install any apps.

Yesterday mine was working fine. I got up this morning and tried to install a few updates and got the message that all of them didn't unable download....

So does anyone else have any issues downloading apps from the Market? Everytime I attempt to download an app, I'm still getting the message that it was unsuccessful.
In addition, whenever I turn on my 4G...I used to get the "4G Antenna On" icon in the taskbar. Now I don't even get that. When I check the 4G status, it just says "scanning".
I just got this Evo this past sunday and I'm trying to hold on to it so I can exchange it for a Nexus S once they come out. But this is driving me crazy. I've updated the prl, profile and did a factory reset, cleared the Market cache and data and I'm still I'm having issues. this has been going on since 6 this morning...
I don't know if this matters but I'm in Madison WI and I'm also stock..non-rooted and my Evo version is the 004 model.

I'm having issues downloading anything since a couple hours ago on my Evo Shift in Milwaukee. New rom, so i wasn't sure if it was my fault or the market's.

What ROM are you using? I have had problems updating apps that were included as system apps in certain ROMs.

I'm unrooted right now. last night when I was rooted, I didn't have these issues. However, I unrooted using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141&highlight=unroot
When after I unrooted the phone, everything worked fine. But this morning, I updated 3 or 4 apps..then all of sudden all the apps stop downloading and the "download unsuccessful" message popped up.

google market fails...

I rerooted my phone and after I rerooted, I was still unableto download and install apps from the Market App itself. I cleared the Market's Cache/Data again and it still didn't work.
However, if i went to https://market.android.com/ on my pc, I was able to download/install apps. So I'm wondering if the issue is with the Google App itself...

Flashed CyanogenMod Final earlier and have had no problems today / tonight with Market.

I had the same issues while I was on vacation in Orlando last week. First, I thought it was my Miui. Wiped everything and started from scratch with Miui. Didn't work, so I switch Roms, CM7...didn't work. Flashed back to my stock backup...still didn't work. Went back to Miui and said the hell with it after I tried other family members phones, and they couldn't either. No app dwnlds or updates from JUST the app market.
It has been working fine since Monday. I was freaking out though, lol.

My wife has an Optimus and she can download apps with no problem. I'm hoping, that it either fixes itself by tomorrow morning.

been having problems since yesterday and thought it was the rom. I have changed to three different for my flashaholic addiction since then and still some problems. Google maps shows unintalled on all roms and it's installed. Don't know whats going on with that.

Market seems to be running again for me. I just installed 2 apps.

When i go to update my apps... It just hangs and says downloading and doesn't do anything. I have to force close and clear cache for it to work again. It has only done a few times to a new downloading app.

Netflix

Watch out when using the Netflix update if rooted runing gb...keep the old version (or make a backup) I believe its 1.2.0. They seemed to have blocked access to gb roms on our Inc. Just fyi. Made the mistake already luckily I had a backup.
Running cm nightly #90
Update:
http://www.droid-life.com/2011/05/26/netflix-removes-device-check-should-work-on-all-android-devices/
Seems Netflix is trying to be nice. Wonder why its hit or miss?

I'm using CM 7.03 and just upgraded Netflix (1.2.1) and have no problems using it, movies still play, everything works as normal.

Well ..me and so far plenty other on droidlife are reporting unusable after update.

I'm using the last stable cm7 and it still works.

Nightly 88 (I think), updated version working.

I know Netflix doesn't work with the new GingerSense ROMs, and the Droidlife article talks mostly about it not working on the Thunderbolt which I believe has the new Sense 3.0 on it, maybe thats the problem not Gingerbread.

Everything running fine for me on CM nightly also. The update actually relaxes the device check it didn't clamp it down further. Maybe uninstalling and clear data before reinstalling, permission fix if rooted, etc, might fix it for those with issues.
EDIT: Well, unless you're running a gingersense that is... I tried again last night with no luck still.

I'm running liberation v2 and I can load nexflix and view my recently watched and instant queue but wont load videos. It keeps on force closing. Its definitely not a sense 3.0 problem.

Yup, it seems every version of Gingersense is getting the same results for some reason. I was hoping the new update would change that but no luck.

Can't even install it from the market.. says insufficient storage

I was having issues with the new update where it seamed like the app wasn't loading correctly or even at all at point, aka just showing a blank white screen, but it turns out that it just took an incredibly long time to load.
DINC with CM7

Thanks first to XDA developers and alot of hardworking people.
I have downloaded from this site about a dozen different versions of the netflix app, including several versions posted after 6/21. None of them seem to work on the incredible 2 I own. I can get the app to install, I can log in to Netflix, I can select a movie, I can start it, but, all I get is audio and a white screen for video.
I have scanned through several forums and I see this is not an unusual problem, and the only possible solutions I have been able to understand seem to involve cracking the phones operating system and going in and messing around with various files and user supplied patches. Reluctant to go into the deep water without a lifeguard and phone still under warranty. Does anyone have a link to an APK that has been tested on the incredible 2 and found to be satisfactory? Thanks for all replies. If I found something will post here.

I'm running CM7.0.3 stable and Netflix 1.2.2 and it's working fine.
