I'm trying to install Metamorph (and hopefully reskin the entire phone), however, each time I download it, the market crashes when it tries to install.
Any ideas?
Update: This occurs on any app that I try to install.

I was running DCv2.06 and thought a2sd was working fine until one day i got a out of space error when updating Nesoid Lite (NES emulator.) Took a look at available space and it said ~30mb. Not exactly out of space but whatever, weird, moving on.
• Went in and started totally fresh wiping everything and, repartitioning and then successfully activating a2sd. free space = 101mb.
• My Nesoid shortcut said the app was no longer installed upon pressing it. Market says there's an update available and that it IS installed.
• When I try to update it tells me I'm out of space.
• When viewing the app in market my only option is to update. Uninstall button is grayed out.
• I can install any app on the market, even big ones like google earth with no problem, except Nesoid Lite.
• Nesoid Lite is not under Setting > Applications > Manage Apps.
• Tried to install Nesoid Lite from an old backup, same Out of Space error.
• Downloaded Nesoid Lite from a website and tried to install via a couple different app installers and ES File Explorer - same error.
• App is still in my market list.
• WIPED FULLY and started over. Same app, same error... and still in Market list under Downloaded. Still says Update Available.
how in the world does the app's market link survive a total wipe!?
what the f.
EDIT:
Just cleared market cache and the problem persists.
Cleared market upldater cache - problem persists.
I can install other emulators, like Gearoid Lite, by the same developer: "yongzh"

Start by making sure the market isn't running (task manager of your choice, or settings->applications->manage applications, Market, 'Force Stop' button).
Then open a terminal and type
Code:
su
rm -r /data/data/com.android.vending/*
Restart market, if the button is still grayed out then reboot your phone.
results were the same. Thanks for you reply.

I don't know what the name of the apk is, but if you can find it, you can manually remove it in /data/app (if you have a2sd running, it'll redirect you to /system/sd/app). If it isn't there, try /data/app-private. Last place to work is /system/app.
Once you remove it, reboot the phone and see if you can install it again.

The app is in fact uninstalled (foir the most part) and is in neither of those directories.
I'm having a problem downloading and updating apps from the Android Market. As soon as the download is complete and the phone tries to install the Android Market force closes. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it? My N1 is rooted and running CM 5.0.6.

Go to settings>applications>manage applications>market then clear cache and uninstall updates.
Come back to home screen then go into market, accept the T&C's and download your stuff.

Thanks man it worked. The only thing is that I have to do it every so often. It also takes a lomg time for anything to show up (i.e. searches, downloads, and just browsing)
Thanks
Worked for me too
Thanko you!
Finaly!
I didn't need to uninstall updates. I fixed this by just clearing the data in the application. But yes, if an application hangs at install it seems to screw up the Market app.
Mhhh. Yesterday had an app (Volume) that was stuck on installing an app ... for hours.
Thanks! Fixed my issue.
Thanks, worked great

Am I missing something? When I goto settings>applications>manage applications>market I can clear data and clear cache but I can't uninstall anything.
I cleared both the cache and data but once I except the terms of service it FC again. And I still have the issue with FC after every install or uninstall.
Anyone care to chime in here? I'm still having issues with the market crashing even after clearing data and cache.
Also I notice the market will crash after I set my USB connection type to data (connect to the computer).
WTF!? i have tried partitioning/formating the sd card and reinstalling cm6.1.1 and everytime i login to my google account and go to the market IT ALWAYS CRASHES! i dont have anything but 2 purchased apps that are not installed. clearing data and such does not help. even tried to reinstall cm6.1.1 with and without hdpa gapps but the problem is still there. i have flashed roms countless times and this is a first. makes me want to get a blackberry now.
Worked, but now I have the old version. Does it upgrade itself?
I've installed new rom and when market updates it crashes. I did wipe chace, unistal update and yes it works. I get back my old market. But after few minutes it updates itself to new one and I'm back at the begining.

Where is your Market update installing to - /data or /system?
Sorry but I'm new here. How can I see where updates are? Do I need to go to recovery and find market folder somewhere in -data or -system?
You can use a file browser and look in /system/app and /data/app to see if the Market is there - however, a better option is to use Titanium and use the batch options to "Integrate updates of system apps in ROM".
Once the Market is back in the /system it should behave a lot better...
-data/app folder is empty. I found Marketupdater.apk in -system/app. I'll try this Titanium and report back how are things.
Ok I've fixed it. You just need to select english language in settings and it dosn't crashes anymore.
PS: Sorry for bad english.

This is the solution for most market FC issues. Someone should pin this.
I just recently updated from CM6 to CM7 RC2. I flashed the ROM, then the gb gapps (03-07-2011 version), then darktremor's a2sd. I wiped data and dalvik. All of my apps on my external partition appeared upon reboot. When I open the Market, it works fine. However, when I goto the My Apps section, several apps automatically begin downloading automatically, but they never make any progress. When I cancel the download, and restart it the market crashes. If I try to download a new app, the market crashes. All other apps work fine.
My settings are set to save apps internally (so they will goto the ext partition). I've tried the following things, to no avail.
Deleting the smdl2tmp1.asec file
Reflashing gb gapps
fixing file permissions with rom manager
fixing file permissions with a2sd via terminal
clearing market, downloader, other-seemingly market related caches
Is there any other fixes for market force closes? If you need a logcat, let me know.
Bump.
Market still not downloading...I may try making a Nandroid, then flashing straight CM7 & gapps, without dta2sd....
UPDATE: I fixed it. I uninstalled the market updates, which didn't appear to have any effect, other than fixing my problem. I don't know how it updated, unless flashing gapps did it.

I don't uninstall market update,and my market is fine.strange...
I experiment with some apps, install them via market, after a short time uninstall them. Now, market shows "installed" for uninstalled apps. Is there any way to "told" the market that these apps are uninstalled?

Try clearing the data for the Market app.
rebooting seems to fix that for me. How would you clear the market data ?

Depending on which ROM you're using: Menu >settings >applications >manage applications (if you're on CM7) >scroll down to the Market app, press it and select clear data. You will need to sign back into the Market once you open it again.

Clear cache foreclose and reboot is not working

A see all the Apps in my Apps, but again later on... everything is empty
Somebody have same issues?
Cheers,
Peter
If you find an app you have purchased before, does it allow you to install it? Or does it say its "incompatible" with your device?
It is allowed to download it and install it. And i have no new phone... so maybe my account is corrupt at Google side?
Try the following, if you have superuser permissions.
In the file /system/build.prop find the line starting with ru.build.fingerprint, and replace symbols JFM to JJ7
If this not works, in the same file find the option ro.sf.lcd_density=167 and change 167 to 160. You may set another value, eg. 240.
After saving the changes you should reboot.

Care to elaborate? Or do I need to remove your post?
My ro.build.fingerprint is like:
ro.build.fingerprint=htc_wwe/htc_ace/ace:2.3.5/GRJ90/$:user/release-keys
Do i replace GRJ90 then?
ro.sf.lcd_density=240 this is my line
Have change this things but did not work.
clear cache did also not work again...

Better first try to change LCD density to 160. I'm not sure about fingerprint in non-Russian roms
Btw, are the permissions for build.prop set correctly after making changes?

Try everything nothing helped...
I use a build.prop editor this saves the file and correct the permissions.
Even uninstalled the market update did not work
IT is working again:
unimstalled the update of market
Clean data from google services framework.
Then force close
Clean data of market
Then force close
Reboot
Now it seems to work....
After update of market app the problem is back. Now i try the same steps as above...
After the steps above without remove market update i got my list back...
But after a change from portrait to landscape the list is gone again....
Seems like Google developers "fixed" something again. Try to ask their support

I discover it was a App problem. When i did a full restore of Titanium the problem was there... When i did every time 5 apps restore i use for long time the problem was gone...
I do not know that app gives this error.. because i delete all other apps what i think it was the problem and even do not use them anymore as well..
It is a update of something .. so my problem is solved.
Also, Market Fixer can help to solve the problem. Root required!
Market fixer did not work... have try that already.. but it is solved now...
Official fix for me...
Requirements:
Market Fixer app installed
Faith and patience
Intructions:
1) go to manage applications in your settings, tap view all and force close "Market" (don't delete any data)
2) while still there, also delete "Google Services Framework"'s data and force close it
3) run "Market Fixer", tap analyse market links, select all of them and tap remove market links ONLY
4) go to "My Apps" inside Android Market and make sure there's a Retry button on the screen telling you it couldn't communicate with the server, if there isn't, repeat step 2 and re-check
5) re-run "Market Fixer" to be sure the links didn't get recreated, and if none appear, reboot
6) go to "My Apps" as soon as you boot completely
7) if previously bought apps appear on the list, go to the free apps category and install a new one (this will recreate your market's database with working information)
8) check "My Apps" one last time, all apps should be there now
9) if you want, reboot once more and go to "My Apps" again to make sure everything's in working order with your "My Apps" list
10) dance the macarena, shoot a few hoops or just enjoy your victory like i did
11) make sure you don't re-link those evil apps to your market so you don't have to redo all of this
***As you could've noticed, the idea behind the first five steps is to keep the market from recreating the links or having to clear the data for Google Services Framework many times (both happen when the market's still running in background).***
