Anyone having issues with the market right now?
Mine is trying to update maps, beautiful widgets, and titanium; but its hanging on downloading.
I've cleared market cache, rebooted, and changed to WiFi.

+1... funny thing is that I was able to get some apps to download/update after several tries.
Yes. They seem to be having some issues.
issues here too. cm6
yeah same here. grrr
Ok, just glad I'm not the only one. Was going to flash a new ROM, but I'll wait till this gets worked out.

HA!! I just switched to a new ROM and I have been posting in the devs thread telling them the ROM isn't allowing me to download anything from the market. Oops! At least I know where the problem is coming from now though. Too bad I have wiped my phone and now can't download Titanium Backup to restore.
Also I have tried 3G, 4G and Wifi. The market just isn't working.
Yeah, maps won't update. Guess ill have to wait. Now says my maps aren't even installed.

1 out of 3 downloaded (smart keyboard pro) maps and another app are hanging as well. I was wondering what was going on. Glad I saw this thread I was considering a wipe. Using calkulins rom.
This is driving me crazy.
It goes from "Starting download" to "Download paused"
dumb
Same here. Started this afternoon when I went to update some apps. Goes straight to download paused (never even seen that before) and after some time says download was unsuccessful. Tried downgrading market but it didn't help. I hope Google gets the market issues fixed soon. They keep secretly updating it and half the time it works and the other half it gets serious bugs.
What a cluster, but I'm glad It's not just me.

Just open up and log into GTalk and the downloads should automatically resume their downloading....

If you want the new market to update automatically all you have to do is go into your applications and clear data once that is done go into the market click agree and log or of it and give it a minute and it will update. Worked for me hope it works for you.

Worked for me, but it didn't happen immediately. I played a couple of youtube vids and left it alone and poof, about a half hour later I have it. Thanks for this tip!
I cleared both data and cache and got the update within a minute or two. Thanks for the tip!

Worked for me, clear the data and whatever else can be cleared, I waited about a half hour then opened up the market and it was the new one. Great find on this!

I did that a few times as well. I just think it doesn't work on CM

Thanks OP! It worked.
For those who aren't sure what to do, this might help a bit.
On your home screen, press menu, then select settings. Navigate to "Applications", then select "Manage applications".
Click "All" and go find "Market", click on it and then click "Uninstall updates", confirm and uninstall, then click "Clear data". Now you can close it and reboot (or turn off and on if you are not rooted).
Then just relaunch Market again, wait for a bit and you should have the latest.
I've had this problem for months on all sorts of ROMs but never put much thought into it.
Is there a fix? I NEVER know if updates are available until I hit up the market.

Go to market, menu button>settings>notify me
I should have mentioned that I had that option selected. I've also tried clearing the cache, etc, with no luck.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
I think the Market just sucks at notifying you. Its never been very good at notifying on my G1, mytouch slide, or the Vibrant, so its gotta be the Market.
I thought so too, but notifications work perfectly on my rooted Nook.

Go to menu> settings > applications > manage applications> market. Here click on clear data. Nyu may have a problem with broken links of ur apps. If that's the problem, above steps should solve it.

I've tried that before with no luck. What's really weird is that my market cache is always 0.0kb in size as well.
I wonder if I have an app or something that is blocking it. Right before I installed Bionix 1.3 I formatted my internal sd (just because I had never done so) and I received market notifications then and thought that maybe it was just clutter. But the issue is back. Super weird.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
I also don't receive update notifications until I open my market. I just let programs update automatically, and check it every once in a while for manual updates due to apps requesting new permissions.

I think its a market issue. Its hit or miss for me. Sometimes I get them and sometimes I dont.
I don't know if this is a 2.2 issue or not but ever since i updated, my market has been acting iffy...along with a few other samsung widgets. I don't know if it's a server issue or something with 2.2 on our phones but i know a few people that started having that problem as soon as they updated to 2.2.
Same market issue here, hardly ever get notifications on updates. However whenever I open market all the notifications come up
I'm with everyone else, I don't think I've ever gotten notifications before. My gf's phone doesn't get hers either and shes using a MyTouch Slide. I do get notifications right after I close the Market, but never before.
I think its purely a market issue.

It worked perfectly on android 1.1 with the G1 back then, but since 1.5 its been hit or miss .... guess its been over looked by the OEM, when putting together roms for their devices ... Or it can just be an issue with google's servers .. I just made it a habit to check every day for updates ..
Mine works it seems to work every 3-4 days on notifying me. But, it hangs in the download so I end up doing manual update.
This method go to Market> type find updates or update apps then it seems to find them
The auto update is kinda flaky and unreliable
What's weird about it, at least to me, is that it works perfect on my rooted nook and with the honeycomb demo for my nook. At least I'm not the only SGS owner with issues.

Wait... you think this is a bug/bad thing?
OMG I'd be thrilled to never receive market update notifications, instead, I have to manually kill the service every reboot (even with "do not notify me" set) and often uninstall unwanted updates from my themed apps in /system/app until I have time to theme them.
Royal pain, I'd love to never have updates, lol.
Cheers, =)

Now that I think about it, I realize I have the exact same problem. I don't think I get update notifications until I open markeg myself.

Like whoa, looks nice. Explains why my phone was showing the GPS icon this morning even though I had no apps open, lol. Sucks though because it auto updated my Skype from VZW.
Anyone know how I can get that out of My Apps since I use the real Skype app? Its irritating to always see it needed an update even though my other Skype app is up to date.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
If you're rooted you can move the Skype apk to another directory, rename it, or freeze it.
Titanium backup pro (if you are rooted, you should have this app) can freeze, remove, rename bloat.

I second Titanium Pro if rooted, super simple.
For some reason with the new market I can't buy apparently that cost $$

Anyone else notice that they can only DL or update 1 app at a time on wifi and 3g. In the past i could have multiple downloads going instead of them being queued. Strange, guess it keeps the market more stable.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Yeah, I noticed that

Anyone else notice that no app screenshots appear? I just get an error on the screenshots and the Retry button does nothing.
Anyone else get automatically updated today? Was running the old version last night and earlier, now its the newest one and I didn't download anything!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Yeah happened to me as well.
I hate the new market. Not only are the animations unnecessary and annoying, but all of the sudden I don't have access to QuickPic OR the ACS Updater app! It's ridiculous! EG22, EC05, and CM7. ACCESS DENIIIIIED.
Earlier today I updated an app in the old market, then driving on the way home I got the new one. It's pretty cool, and much faster, but so far I got 2 gripes:
1) my text reviews are either hidden or vanished; only the star rating shows. ETA: n/m, if you tap the star rating you see what you said. Better that way, actually. Good job big G.
2) there should be an option to sort My Apps by something other than A-Z order. The old market had them with the latest updated at the top; makes more sense.
I hope apps don't disappear on me anymore and if they do that the old cache/data clearing trick will fix it.
ETA: to get the super rad new more 3D shaded icon on your homescreens you may need to trash the old and bring it out from the app drawer or Touchwiz or whatnot. Least I did. ;-)
Can you guys search the market from home? (Hitting the search key then selecting market at top right?) I hate how the self install one you couldnt
Sent from my SPH-D700
I just uninstalled the manual update to see if it would update and it did. I opened the old one and noticed my data activity. Closed it and waited for the traffic to stop. Opened it and had the update.

Likewise. I'm surprised if that feature was ever possible actually.
You need to approve permissions every single time now, even if they haven't changed (kinda paranoid on G's part if you ask me, and annoying). And you have to expand them sometimes to see all of them too. Downloader beware.
Oh, and with the update notify option now seemingly gone, does it just not let you know (my preference) or is it forced? 2 app updates since the new Market hit and no notification in the bar either time for me.

From the homescreen hit the search soft key on the phone, and it'll come up with google search and at the top left corner press that and select the market. Then type in an app name or anything and it should search the market for it. On previous markets it worked for me

Couple things I really don't like, and I had the manual install for a while as well. I would much rather a list of catagories than a cluttered mess like it is now. I'm sure I'll get used to it, but just, bleh. Also I hate that when you hit the menu key the search option no longer pops up like it used to. So now I have to use the phone search magnifying glass thing. Time to relearn I suppose.
Went to delete a topic I just made of the ota and it was already gone lol.
Ah well less work I gotta do. Yah, I received mine this morning.

I've gotten notifications in the last 24 hours using the newest market. What bugs me (and this was the case on the old version too) is all the notifications for apps I got free from amazon. Amazon doesn't update their apps nearly as fast as the market does so these apps keep showing up.

You can select what locations the home searches in, at least in Gingerbread.
Open search from the home page (hit the magnifying glass button), Press the icon on the upper left (for me its the google icon), on the window that opens press the gear on the upper right. That opens a page that allows you to choose the items that are searchable in the search function. For me, Apps is the second item on the list.
Soundhound claims there's an update today, but when I click on it I see nothing but Open and Uninstall. Annoying. Whassupwitdat? Maybe time to clear Market cache & data after all.

Yes the new market is good for that. I don't like that and I don't like games being mixed in with the apps. That's annoying.
