[Q] Can't download off Market anymore.

Out of no where, I can't download off the Market anymore. This is what happens when I try to download when clicking on Install, it displays the Downloading icon in the notification bar and disappears without any warning or error! When I look back on the Application page for example Angry Birds, it just shows the Install button like it wasn't even touched!
I power cycled many times, I tried a lot of the tricks off of Google like Gtalk fix and the uninstalling the marketupdates trick, still no go I'd hate to reset to factory again, specially after recoverying from the Wifi issue from the other post.
Your help is appreciated!

Did you try going into applications, click on market, and press clear data?

Yessir, and cleared most google services too.

Hmmn, not sure what to tell you if you already did that?

I think the market is down. Same issue here. Try with me nexus one and it wont download either.

Same here. Can't download anything.

I factory reset (which sucked royal balls) but I think I know what caused it now, it's that Fast Web Installer for AppBrain app. When I tried to re-install it, it said something about causing issues with new market update, and I remembered that I installed it successfully before the reset. So it might of conflicted and busted my market.
Let me know if that works for you, assuming you have this app.

Nooooo..market is down!

Hmmm.. not for me, I just re-downloaded all my apps... now that you mention it, downloading 260 apps might have something to do with that :/

Interesting. I still can't. androidcentral mentioned it's down also.

I can't download any app either, and I just wasted 2 hours trying to fix it...I guess it's down!? I can see the apps, I click install, and then it says download unsuccessful, just like the OP said.

O. M. G.... I factory reset for NOTHING?!?! *double face palm*

[Solved] Market 3.1.5 not receiving updates.

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.

[Q] Market keeps fcing

Anyone else have issues with the android market on xoom?
have 3.2.1 and market versions 3.1.6 and if i open and hit my apps it fc's - when i try and update apps in the market it fcs
tried clearing data/cache but all that did was stop it fc'ing when i opened market - then i get fc when i go to my apps now.
xoom is not rooted - only happened in the last couple of weeks.
can still push apps to xoom from market.android.com

Clear it and do a hard reset. Mine did it too.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

yes - but it was happening before that - been happening for about 2 weeks - a few days after the OTA update after 3.2.1 came out.
i will try uninstalling
already cleared the data on the market a couple of times - helped a little bit didnt make much difference - it only helped me get into the market - still fc on my apps

Mine did once in awhile, but only when I was going between screens very quickly.

This was just happening to me so I uninstalled Docs to Go and now the market works again!

Was having the same issue. I have docs to go as well. Also had more than one account see up. One would work but the others would all fc when going to my apps. Went into apps and cleared the app data and cache for the market. Went back in and chose the account it should be using and so far no more fc.

I went to the Market website and installed the latest Docs to Go and my market onyx TV's some of the time like it used to.

Maybe, but I found a few app updates that the market was having a hard time digesting. I'm not sure it's your system's problem.

Market on my US WIFI only Xoom updated itself to 3.3.11 automatically and i don't see any problems with it.
I installed the 3.3.11 apk (from androidpolice.com) to my GT10.1 and it has problems, missing backgrounds, small icons and text.
So there seem to be two different versions with the same version number, one for phones and one for tablets?
My Xoom is not rooted, so i can't get the apk from it. No one else has received the Market update? Maybe someone can pull the updated Market from Xoom.

Check your available ram
I've noticed as I've loaded up the old Xoom with lots of fun apps, that my market updates/downloads will choke if my ram starts to get a bit low. Makes sense.

[Q] New Market and FC

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!

Question about an app that keeps closing?

I have a 6t tmobile version that I updated to the international version and I have an app that won't load. When I click on it I acts like is going to open and then closes instantly. Is supper quick that you don't really see it. Help. The app is the YouVersion bible app. The thing is that the app was working fine before the update to international version. And the only older versions work.

Every time I update I have a few apps that do this. I have to open the play store and let Android system WebView update to cure this problem. Have you checked for updates yet?

Oh, I get it. Did you disable it? That is very weird. That was needed and it being outdated was the exact cause of my problems when I had similar issues that you describe.
I remove many things from OOS, but I've noticed there a few things I have to make sure are up and running before I remove otherwise I have issues.
What I would do is try and re-enable that and update it. See if that fixes it. If it does great. Try and disable it again after that if you want. However I think you may need it. Otherwise if you are rooted, back up that app with TitaniumBackup, and probably it's data in Android / Data folders and try a fresh install (This should be a last resort)? <-- That is unless it's an app that doesn't really have data that matters. If it's something that can be freshly installed without worry go ahead.

I figure out how to enable it, but it did not help. The app keeps opening and closing instantly

try this
force stop the app, its probably running in the background
wipe the cache and data in the app(settings/apps and notifications/
then un install the app
now reboot, and let the phone settle in a minute
go to app store and try to download/ install again
thats what I would try.

I did that however it does the same thing am just going to wait for an update.

email the developer and let him know about your issue..

Thanks for all the help. I finally got it to work. What I ended up doing was reseting the phone. I guess the last time when I used the oneplus backup app it cause a problem. Or a least that is what I think. I used the Google backup instead.

I found the answer
Hi i hope it can help for myself i finally got the ultimate tricks to prevent any background app to be killed especially the bible using text to speech output you only need to move your app to system ?
