Every time I try a new ROM and try to go back to my backup I made on Nandroid in Clockwork-mod regardless of when the backup was made everything works fine but find out that I can’t download anything. Gmail works, I will get notices that updates are available but it hangs at starting download.
I have tried to clear cache, use WIFI, everything else I can find but the only solution is to Odin and start all over..
Any suggestions about what I can do?
This is my first Android phone after leaving Apple - is this what I should expect?
anyone? any ideas?
From one novice to another, have you tried uninstalling the market from the stock application screen? Not titanium backup or rom manager, but uninstalling the market from your stock applications is safe, all it does is remove your temp market files, not the app, you simply launch again, accept the tos again, and you're back in, hope this helps.

I apologize ahead of time if there is a thread on this, I couldn't find one off hand.
Just installed Fresh 1.1 on a friends Hero, and installed Task Panel. I ignored any system apps from auto kill, but downloads quit working after a while. I had this happen once when I first got mine rooted, but don't remember what it was, any droidians know the fix?
Uninstall task killer
Sign into Gtalk
toggle wifi if you have it on.
I have this problems at times. The easiest fix is to go to Disable and then Enabled Backgroud Data. If that doesn't work, then just turn your phone off and back on.
Found this, but there was no solid response with how succesful it was...

Let the phone reboot and now all my settings were gone its ok i have a nandroid backup now sign into the market as normal with your normal sign in
Download a free app (anything works) it should now download without a problem (mine did)
Now boot back into recovery and restore your most recent backup.
Reboot and now market seems to work (well atleast for me it did)
Now this happened cuz i almost bricked my phone trying to get the market to work in the 2.1 ROM I am not sure if this will fix your issue but it is worth a try as it fixed my market problems.
By the way mine would load but the apps would hang at Starting Download and would never pass that.
I found out the hard way that Google talk and the market downloads are tied together.
Hello, I am having an issue with my droid 2. I have rooted it following all the instructions here. Since this phone is my GF's she has loaded all sorts of stuff on there, and now the phone is running slow, and burning through battery. We decided to do a factory reset on the unit.
after setting up her google account, all her old applications start flooding back in. how can i stop this? we want to have the phone with a clean slate.
we have tried deleting all the apps on the phone. rebooting, waiting then wiping as well. all these same apps come flooding in.
Any help will be appreciated.
Go through darkonion's sbf tutorial that will start you off from scratch.
will that remove root?, im not sure that would fix it tho, ive read around, and it appears like google has some sort of application backup and restore option. somehow that was turned on. and im not sure how to turn it off.
It will remove root but you can easily get root back with darkonion's one click root. Look in Settings>Privacy>uncheck Back up my data>uncheck Automatic restore and try a factory data reset.

Yeah its a feature in froyo that its restoring all your apps in the my downloads folder of the market. If you have done a full wipe just open the my downloads folder and begin to uninstall apps, that should also break their chain to come back if you wipe again

Ive tried that, i guess ill have to keep battling it. the odd thing is my incredible does not even have this feature... maybe its the rom im using (Virtuous) but i dont see anything that even remotely looks like this.
the last thing we did was uninstall all the apps and wipe again, and they all came back. Maybe if i do it from the market, like you suggested. ive already disabled the backup and sync. i wish there was a more intuitive interface for this.
If it's not too much of a hassle just sbf the phone and make a new google account.

So i figured out a solution. I wiped her phone. and skipped adding a google account.
I then went to settings privacy, and i saw that backup my data was unchecked, but automatic restore was both greyed out, and checked.
i quickly enabled backup my data, then unchecked automatic restore, and backup my data (making it so everything was unchecked.)
I added her google account, and none of her apps came back. This was a pain to figure out, but not that bad of a work around now that i found it.
hopefully this helps someone who is having the same issue.
Hi i deodexed my phone 2 weeks back and ever since then my market seems to just randomly stock working every morning. to get it working again, i have to go to CWM, install the deodex file from this forum, reinstall my theme, and reinstall my kernal(stupid-fast). the only fix i can think of is undoing the deodex. any tips??
I would try wiping and reinstalling whatever rom you are using.

well i did a full odin restore, installed a stock.zip, turned on my phone, signed into google, and my market worked for 30 seconds and now everything is "download unsuccessful" as it was doing before. am i screwed? lol
I use appbrain to manage all of my apps. Install the app first then sync all of your apps. After wiping/clearing cache, you can just reinstall appbrain, sign in and sync.
when ever i flash a new rom all the apps that i have installed even ones i uninstalled start to download in the market ?? any idea how to fix this maybe even wipe my maket history beside my paid apps and i just started using lex lite 3 and im getting random reboots
Clear your cache in Koush's bootstrap.
thank u i will try this
that didnt do anything to the market its still trying to download all those apps even though i already ran titanium
Funny, I recently reflashed fission rom and experienced the same thing. I thought about playing with the "detach from market" option in Titanium Backup.
Ultimately I just manually stopped all the downloads and proceeded in setting up my accounts and batch restoring my apps via Titanium.
I think this happens when you first sign into Google after you boot your new rom for the first time. I skip logging into Google, and then it doesn't download all the apps right away. later I set up my google account and then go into the market and reinstall what I want.
as always, don't quote me on this
Hope this helps.
Nookcolor with MN 4.5.25, 1.1 overclocked kernel. I had the market problem, but 4.5.25 cleared it up. It worked fine for a week or so. Then yesterday all of "My apps" disappeared from market except the several I paid for. I did the 4.5.25 market fix several times and the rename Vending.apk fix a couple of times, no cigar (I'm aware of the risk of appearing insane, so I won't keep doing the same thing over and over, at least not too many times). On the desktop Android Market, my account, "My Orders" shows only these same paid apps and two free apps (with no rhyme or reason as to which two, except both have been uninstalled by me). If this isn't clear to you, I am talking about the list of the apps I have downloaded on market. All of my apps are working fine on the NC.
If I find the rest of my apps on Android Market on the desktop, all are marked "installed". But they simply will not appear, no matter what I do, on the NC or on the "My Orders" screen on the desktop.
Short of downloading each again (my time, ambition, patience, and data allowance are limited) how can I restore the apps to list on "My apps" on the NC and "My Orders" on the desktop?
I have a Titanium backup taken a few days before the failure. Is this information kept in some data area in the NC and sync'ed to market? Could I restore an app or that app's data and get my apps back in sync? I hesitate to restore everything, as I am beginning to believe that I am digging a hole.
Waiting patiently for some informative responses, DaveD
I haven't resolved this problem, and am still waiting for suggestions. In the meantime, an additional problem. Whenever I install a new app, downloaded in the standard manner from market, market will then appear briefly when I try to load it again, then disappear. I then have to restore the market.apk with Titanium, after which i will work again until the next time I install an app. I will now see in the my apps section the same several paid for apps plus any additional that I have installed since the problem first occurred.
Please help if you can. I would like to fix this. DaveD
I am trying to figure out the best way to backup my data and apps.
I am between using Titannium Backup or Backup Pro.
Any suggestions....?
Also,
Do you know what's the easiest way to reboot into recovery mode?
I'm running CM7 off SD card. Tried the Power and N button combination, with no luck also tried selecting reboot into recovery mode from CM7 desktop.
Which backup?
Since no one else is responding, I'll give you my recommendation based on limited experience. I like Titanium, and after installing it quickly paid for the Pro version, for the simple reason that it allows multiple backups, which I consider necessary in any backup program. I don't know about backup pro. But overall, among the two dozen or so apps I run, both free and paid, Titanium Pro appears to be the highest quality of them all.
Regarding rebooting into recovery mode, I don't know how else to reboot . See the next item in this thread for additional info on that.
Well, since no one is either interested enough or can help, I took the plunge and fixed it myself. If there is any interest, here is the only answer I could come up with.
First, I tried selectively restoring system apps with Titanium. I ended up restoring 20 or so. All that did was got me deeper into it. At the end I could no longer download apps--it would come up with the infamous "starting download" and that was the end of it.
So I decided to start from scratch, attempting to revert the Nook to it's original 1.1 out-of-the-box unregistered version. I followed the directions in the Nook Wiki (don't remember the two items and don't have time to go looking, as will be the case with a lot of the explanation below). I started with the ADB interface and entered the reboot failure 8 count from the desktop, upon which it rebooted, but did so into ClockWorkMod recovery, and recovered to the MN 4.5.25 system I was trying to get rid of. So, ignorant as I am about how all this works, I did the eight reboot failures manually, same thing, same thing. Now, I guess I could have gone in and uninstalled ClockWorkMod, but didn't think of that. So next time I tried it (third), I had recovery reset all data and cache. Then when I rebooted I was in NookColor stock 1.2, without rooting. But every time I tried to get back to out-of-the-box 1.1, I entered recovery again.
Now, withe the expectation that I could reinstall MN for the express purpose of killing ClockWorkMod recovery, then go about following the directions in Wiki which should work, I MN'ed it. Upon reemerging into MN, market worked! So I installed the 1.1Ghz kernel, and started reinstalling the apps, which I am still doing. No need to go back to the 1.1 clean level, as far as I have seen. Some of the old apps are still there, but most are gone. Again, no rhyme or reason as to which apps. But it works.
I could reinstall the old apps from Titanium, which I did for Dolphin merely to get the latest Beta 5.0.6 back and for the bookmarks, but for the most part am reinstalling from market, as I need for market to be aware of the apps I have.
Bottom line, it is much easier to wipe the Nook (provided you get ClockWorkMod out of the way first) and reinstall apps then to spend hours upon hours trying to figure out how to fix a market problem. Market is nice and solid with 4.5.25; I hope it stays that way this time (I don't know what caused the original failure, but I am highly suspicious that it was operator error)! I guess a clean wipe and reinstall to 4.5.25, including an overclocking kernel and apps, will take an hour or so, less if you reinstall apps from backups.

titanium pro is the only way to go. buy it!. I had back up pro before and had to uninstall it because it would not reinstall from time to time. titanium pro always works and with the pay version you can batch activities not like the free version where you'll have to do it one by one. anyway, if you restoring with titanium pro remember to restore apps only and not the data. you don't want to pass on bad data to your fresh flash.
with the market did you try to clear cache in application manager? sometime this will help. go to settings / application / manage application / view all and scroll down to market and clear cache and data. I also think you'll need to clear cache and data with google services framework, but I forget, not sure.
for flashing nighties (only if you're going from cm to cm) all you have to do is wipe partition cache, not data and wipe dalvik cache and flash your new nightie. all of your app will be there. I hope this helped a little. good luck.
