Anyone having problems with the Market? Able to download apps but they will not install, been doing it since yesterday evening. Don't think its the ROM i am using, but I just want to check with everyone else. Thanks

I had an update to titanium backup hang during installation this morning, but I cancelled and restarted and it was fine. No problems installing other apps, it should be working fine.
Been having the same issue. Just let it be and it will eventually install/download.
I've been having this problem for a while - a download will hang, and I'll have to cancel and restart it. I usually don't have a problem with the installation.
Same for me too... market hangs on download and install...

Mine finally allowed me to update and begin some installs. Hope everyone elses works out too.
Same problem using the stock rom, switched to zippe's DesireHD rom and had no problems with the market.
Yah I had the same issue as well and it happens on multiple roms.
I used to be able to fix it by logging into Google talk app but I have issues signing into that sometimes as well.
Yeah, been having major issues since last night. Made a thread in Q&A about it. I've been having the hanging downloads for a while, but used to be able to restart them, or at worst restart the phone and they would work. Last night, even a factory reset wasn't working. Then they started working for no good reason at all. Now the problem is that 4 apps refuse to install. They are Google Sky Map, MiniSquadron!, Frozen Bubble Breaker, and Frozen Bubble Breaker Editor. These all fail to install with Unknown Error -18. Really annoying since I just bought MiniSquadron and Google Sky Map is one of my favorite apps. I hope that these market issues get fixed soon.

I also notice that some apps from the market won't install on certain roms..... like I couldn't update Google streetview on ava Rom 9.... but I was able to install Google sky map just now....
Maybe u want to try a different rom to see if that solves the issue of not being to install certain apps from the android market.
hang ups

Whenever I update any app it is causing the market to close. I'll go back to the market and the app I started the download update on will restart the download and finish. Very strange. This just started a few days ago. Any answers would be welcomed.
I have the same problem on stock rooted

its been happening to me too on iced glacier 1.1............
same here on Iced Glacier 1.1.1 sometimes i notice market wont even load i would just stay on a white screen and thats on wifi
Same thing here.. not rooted
i get issues where i cant buy/pay for apps
Please post questions in Q&A section.
It's happening to mine running Ice Glacier 1.1.2. It's been that for a while now.

Sometimes the market will force-close each time I start it forcing me to do some combination of clearing its cache, removing its update, or uninstalling the most recently installed apps. It's probably the least reliable app on my phone at the moment, with the mms app being in second place.
I've also started to have the issue of it crashing while download updates. If I restart it, it continues fine.
I have no way to qualify this, but it feels like the market app is particularly sensitive to network connectivity. Obviously it needs data to function but it doesn't seem to handle connectivity problems gracefully.
I'm still stock and not rooted.
Clear cache on market... That fixed mine.

I have this issue as well (rooted and unrooted). I was reading the google developer blog and many were complaining how this can screw up their payment, or processing of purchased apps. Not sure, but sounded like this was fairly widespread...

You are having the same problems I have. Force close on downloading of updates is very frustrating to say the least.
I am also stock and not rooted.
I have IG 1.1.1 flashed but my problem is it starts the download then freezes. The whole market goes down. If I reset the phone, when its done rebooting it doesn't reload all off my apps that were already saved to the sd card. Any ideas what is wrong or any way to get the lost apps back? I also have titanium but it only reloads them sometimes.

Thought I was alone with this! My market will also FC once I start to update an app, then multiple apps will update that I have flagged for auto-update. It seems my market gets overwhelmed by more than 1 app update running at a time. I just hit FC then re-open it and everything is fine again.
Market 2.2.6 seems a lot more stable for me. I will randomly get download failed messages from it, but it no longer seems to hang or FC anymore.
I am on Cognition 1.5.1 with JKay's v.10.1 theme. It all started yesterday. I can't seem to receive any updates and the notifications as well. I've turned on update notifications, mind you. I also can't seem to download anything at all. The progress bar would just be stuck on 'downloading' for the whole time.
I've tried clearing data, uninstalling updates, using 3G or wireless but to no avail.
I have a friend who is on GingerMOD Vanilla v0.4b and he is having the same problem as well
Anyone having this issue as well? Do you reckon it is Google's issue?

EDIT: Title should read Market 3.1.5 not receiving updates.
Not uncommon for this to be Google's fault, but I've managed to download a couple of things just fine in the last 24 hours.
Update notifications are pretty useless, I never seem to get them until I actually open the Market app by which time I already know there's updates.
Do you have issues if you try downloading an app you've never had installed before?

You're not the only one, version 3.1.3 was buggy as hell, 3.1.5 a lil better, but still takes ages to load installed apps on phone's data, shows updates when there's none, hangs when trying to update or download new apps. Strange thing is market works fine if i access apps from appbrain market app, so it's definetely a problem in the google market app as downloads start and work fine if redirected from other apps.
Update: All is good for now. I can finally download apps again. Google's problem it is! Cheers.

Hello!
New Market on motorola Xoom Wi-fi every time I want to upgrade giving me FC. I don't know how to fix it. Tried to delete upgrade install on the Application but it is upgrading by itself. Tried to clear the cash, clear data.
Nothing helps.
Please, who know how to fix this problem? Looks like new Market doesn't work on Honeycomb.
Guys, help me, please? I really need your advice?
Thank you!
What market version do you have?
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
If you have Documents to Go installed, remove it. It has a problem with the manifest and Dataviz needs to update it, you can use the version from their website in the interim.
Or grab today's free Amazon Apps, Quick Office and Quick Office HD.
Tried everything. Market. 3.1.6, market 3.3.1.1 or something like that, all of them giving me fc.
Guys, please, I need a solution. Can somebody give some advice, please? Or maybe somebody have old mafket app flashable trough cwm? Because google doing nothing for honeycomb.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
The problem is almost certainly related to an installed app, if you don't have Documents to Go installed, started removing apps one at a time until the market begins working properly and report back when you identify the offending app.
I had a thread for the same thing a page or so back.
documents to go didnt seem to cause me much grief (but i removed it anyway), but i did have a problem with Enhanced Email FCing the market (which i also ended up removing on the xoom, working fine on the desire).
noticed my market updated itself to 3.3.1.1 (or similar) the other night too - same problems as the last version.
just waiting for ICS update now and will see if that fixes stuff - I imagine it will and/or devs will update their apps to ICS
Do you have apps that you side loaded that the market reported as not compatible? I get the market FC any time one of my side loaded apps tries to update.
I found that it was a certain alternative market that caused me to "loose" all of my apps... I thought that it was the new market and even went back to the moray 2.2.1 to have the old market.
I figured out it was that other market because I uninstalled it and bingo, I had my apps...
I was pretty stupid and used titanium backup to "force" the market links and ended up with one heck of a messed up android market.... Now I am working through that..
Uninstalled the app called "Download all files" and sims like everything working for now.
Thank you very much!

actually i think i had getjar on there... that's missing from the supermarché now - I wonder if that was the issue
i was also guessing that by the time ICS hits the xoom - and all the devs update their apps for that most of this issue should go away
FWIW, I had the exact same problem I uninstalled Enhanced Email and the problem went away. Too bad, I really like Enhanced Email!

I was running CM9 latest without any issues. I've downloaded a bunch of free apps...no problem.
All of a sudden, I can't download some FREE apps any more. I get the message :
"Error processing purchase"
Lots of people are having this kind of issue and I haven't found a fix for it yet. I have not tried uninstalling it and reinstalling yet.
I've tried clearing the data/cache in the app area. That did not help.
Its really odd.....some of the freebie's I can.....some I can't
Time and a couple of reboots seemed to fix that same problem (on a different ROM) for me.
I don;t think Google has all the bugs worked out of the new Play Market.. I get random errors on various apps when I try to update or download. Most work, but some can't finish the download or won't download at all.
Thanks......but very weird
Yeah, strange things happen on the new Play Market even on my stock Motorola Droid X2
So I shut the nook down for a while...started it up again and now I can download free apps again. No changes.
The problem was going on for days before I posted here.

Nahhhhhh , Google is playing with their Play implementation , getting ready for their big movie and cloud grand opening. I would expect random issues for a few weeks.
Something to look forward to!
PLAY is been a real mess.
It is not only in CM9, and it seems to affect only certain apps. I have the same problem with one game that I had installed on other SD several times before but have trouble today. While other apps installed fine.
Any possibility of reverting back to an earlier Market app if this continues? I don't have this problem (yet) but always anticipate the worst from Google. Running racks' triple boot now, everything hunky-dory.
I think the problems are on Google's server side not the app. I have seen reports from people that reverted back to old market and still had the problems.

I can verify that. The apps that I have problem to install yesterday, it has not problem today.
Long story short: since yesterday I have been unable to update any installed apps, or install new ones. When I try to do so, the app shows in-store as "downloading" but nothing actually happens and it's stuck at this stage forever. Stopping and restarting the service doesn't fix this, nor does completely powering off and on. Internet through the browser works as usual, as do all internet-enabled apps. I haven't installed or removed any software recently - the only change I did in the past 2 days is flash a new CWM recovery (went from 6.0.1.0 to 6.0.1.9) but I don't see what this has to do with the store.
I had this happen to me. If you go into settings > apps and clear data from Google Play Store, that fixed for me.

What rom are you using?
Stock. However I'm still on 4.1.2 - I blocked OTA updates until the current 4.2/4.2.1 bugs are fixed.
It's a long shot, but you can try to install the latest Gapps package from recovery. Or remove and re-add your Google account.
Would you happen to know where I can find the latest gapps package? Thanks!
(edit) found it http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121130-signed.zip
Edit2) Oops the 11/30 gapps don't work with 4.1.x anymore, will try 10/11 instead.
http://goo.im/gapps
Since you're on a 4.1.2 rom, get the one for CyanogenMod 10.0.x
I same issue last night. Downloads were very slow. All stock on latest ROM.

Holy f*! The browser works, however downloading through the browser doesn't. I get "download starting" then nothing happens. Same with Chrome. I quickly checked if I'm not out of storage space - no, I have 8GB free. WTF is going on?
I figured it out. last week I was trying to solve my battery drain problems (can't find the thread anymore) and I ended up disabling the media storage service. That apparently disabled any app from downloading anything. I have re-enabled it and now can download. The store works, browsers work etc. I just hope that the battery hogging doesn't happen again.
When I have play store issues I just sign out of Google talk and sign back in and it fixes my problems .. also close the market after..

Doesn't matter if you use Google talk or not... For some weird reason the play store uses Google talk some how it may be to authenticate

If you can't download at all, a good method can be to clear data from "Google Framework Services" , delete google Account, reboot, recreate your Google Account.
I had the same problem. Enable download manager fixed it for me. After I did that all the apps I had tried to install started downloading and play store stayed open and did not force close.
Settings>apps>all>download manager

the fix was in post #11 . op can you update your op post as solved. in post number 11... Also the media data usage and battery drain was fixed in the small update 4.2.1 then the 1.xx mg update fixed this... hope this makes sense.
