Ok so I don't know what is going on with my android market, some downloads download and install no problem, other end up freezing during the download or something. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to solve it? I have read about market problems before but I don't know if his is the same. I tried to attach a shootme photo but it says its not in the right format. Basically it shows the app I.e. (flash10.1) and has a horizontal grey and wite bar next to it and no status under it.

How did you update? personally I believe that updating via a full Tar.md5 is the best way. updating from an experimental build (if you had DK05 or DK17) to another (DK28) would be best to do a full fresh install instead of the update.zip that's tolling around here.
Have you done a factory reset? (you will loose your data).

Anyone know of a fix for this?
EDIT: Fixed by downloading and installing an app in the market.
I did that but it's still not showing everything. Wonder if reset and restoring from backup has anything to do with that.

Yeah, rgr. It doesnt show all of them. Mostly just all free or no copy protected i think.
I have the same issue, even after a hard reset. I think we're stuck until the official update comes out.

I applied ryanzas lag fix and want to remove it quickly. Will formatting my phone via settings remove it? Does this remove root because I want to keep that.

What version of his lag fix did you apply? You could just use the unlagfix option if you used the market version or the one click.
I did the original the one that required a computer. Can't get to a computer for like couple of days and wondering if I can just remove it doing that method.
Yes formatting your phone.still remove it

I believe if you download the lagfix from the market, you can uninstall it. It gives me an option to remove it.
Search for "lag fix" and you'll find it in the market.

This will only work for lagfix V1+ If I remember correctly. I had installed the one click alpha version via adb and wasn't able to uninstall using the OCLF app. I had to do a complete wipe to get rid of it. The unlagfixme didn't work for me. I installed the app to make life a lil more simple after my wipe.

Do a titanium back up of all of your apps, flash the vibrant stock firmware, or even the new leaked one found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780935
Than use titanium to restore all your stuff, and you will have successfully removed it no matter the version you had used.
I have to go back to odin? You sure the format won't work?

If you did the computer one, you can undo it the same you you applied it, by clicking the file that says "undolagfix" or something similar.
I also installed OCLF but the market version and then I undone everything... But I noticed I still have update.zip should I delete it? Did stock vibrant come with update.zip?

Any idea how long it is supposed to take? I tried to use that and after "allowing" the application from supeuser permissions, it just kinda froze for about 10 minutes, so I rebooted my phone and then i bricked and the phone stayed on a black screen after the samsung G boot screen
Not sure what it was, but I got a system update message on my phone. It wasn't like the voicemail one it didn't say what it was for.
So I clicked install or whatever, it rebooted and went to like the rom installer screen (black white letters, installing system packages)
I get back into android and it doesn't look like anything is different, however I went into settings and a message popped up saying I needed to charge the battery before the phone could finish upgrading.
Anyways I am new around here, first android phone. I was rooted installed 2.2 froyo, had a few bugs and went back to stock and thats when the system update prompted me.
Anyone else get it?

Could be the market update? Does your market have a "related" tab now?

Did you check and see if anything is different now under "About phone"?
No everything looks the same, and if I go to try to update the firmware or anything it stays I am up to date.
Really strange, it definitely seemed like it installed some system files. It looked like when you flash a custom rom through clockwork and see like unpacking /system etc etc.
Charged my battery up more and rebooted a couple times and doesn't say anything about an update anymore. *Shrug*
Whoever sees it next should open up a terminal or adb in and go into /cache and pull out a copy of the zipfile that's there to see what it is.

The market doesn't typically update like this. I think the market has its own method of updating...can't remember what the process is to force one.
Anyone had any issues where they download apps but they dont install.
Mine began doing this recently. I cant install any apps what so ever from the market, but im able to push apps via adb for whatever reason.
Even a soft reset hasnt worked?? Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Yes, thought it was just be being impatient and getting a head of myself..
Glad to know I'm not cracking up aftera all lol..
I found that if you click through to the "MyApps" in the Market (Top-Right) then go back and install I can install the Apps. It's like it needs to 'engage' the install process for some reason........ Very annoying!!
even the described method doesnt work.... someone at google support was looking into this one for me but i think its something they cant do lol
Any solutions here?
I did have this with my UK wifi Xoom for about a week but because I was planning on flashing the US image I just ignored it. Now installed US image and working fine. I suspect a factory reset would solve it but I guess you don't want to go that far.
Try clearing the Market cache in applications.
Mine is always restarting at app install
Seems that I have about same prob but mine keeps restarting and not installing any app
Anyone have some suggestions if mot guess ill reboot and see what happens.

+1 had same issues with market from the day I bought mine (euro 3g). Nothing worked, including factory reset, until I flashed the US 3.1 build. I don't think its crashed since.
So waiting for the 3.1 upgrade is the only option as a factory reset didn't work. Meh lol....
Maybe if any devs see this, maybe we could get a fix?

Im getting the same error n cant seem to find a solution
recovery fix permissions didnt work either!!!
yep thats the error im getting , im going to email market support again in a bit , i think they may beable to finally solve it
Could anyone with this problem, tell me how much space is left inside there xoom?

Genius man
yes for me its the storage problem.
what i did was just deleted two movies n had 2.96GB of storage available n all updates were successful.
hope this works for all u guys too.
cheers
After trying it out, it is confirmed...
Apps Will Not Install Unless You Have More Than 3 Gb Left Of Internal Space Left On The Xoom
You might get away with 2.96 Gb as above, but not 100 % sure as i cant fill enough data on my device to that point.
I wonder if in 3.1 this will change.
But still this is so crap as to install an update of 324kb we need 3gb free.
Think i was a bit too eager to get xoom. Should have waited for samsung

The problem I'm having is that I select apps to install, it shows them as downloading, but I open a different app, and the installs never happen. I have to go back into the Market, and keep the market open for them to install.
I am having the same problem on my Xoom and My Sensation 4G. I have 12.6GB free on my Xoom and 727mb/3.15GB on my Sensation
Been trying to solve it for hours!
I NEED my Android stylin' for school!
I press install, then it downloads, but doesn't say the app is installed / the app isn't installed. Help meh.
How do I fix this, so I can install apps?

Edit:
I tried CM7 again but this time, a little combination of two instructions.
Before, I couldn't fix the market problem, like anything I tried (clear cache, data in the manage applications settings) didn't work. And the uninstall updates wasn't visible. So today I tried again but with some different instructions, and this time it worked! So glad I can use CM7 on my phone, so awesome.
Are you using a stock ROM or a custom ROM?

I've been having this problem lately (on both Bandroid's ROM and rdannar's "diet" stock ROM) with the new marketplace.
Even on updates some apps will go through the whole process, and even act like they're downloading, then will still show up as needing an update.
This didn't help you, but you're not alone?
Rebooting (sometimes) helps.
Do you have the new market yet? I notices when my phone switched to the new one it took a few hours for it to get back to normal. Also, it mat not show its correct status in the market app and if you leave and go back it may say it is finnished.

This is crazy, I don't know why it's doing this, I can't even do gapps because the market won't install the apps.
Market
version 2.3.6
and their is no unistall updates button either. Mannn this is so frustrating.
Wait... are you installing Gapps after installing a ROM? Which ROM? Are you using 3g or wifi?

I have this same problem. I can't successfully install any app via the android Market. I tried clearing Market cache and data with no improvement. If I choose install an app, it looks like it downloads in the status bar, but doesn't actually list it as "Successfully Installed" as it normally would.
If I look in the Market's My Downloads it lists the app but says "Free" next to it instead of "Installed" or "Update". If I then try to install it I get "Sorry! The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Force Close.
I also rolled back the updates on my Android Market with no improvement in functionality.
I think the issue started when I went to Android 2.2.
I'm not clear on how to solve this problem.
Same problem! !!!!!!! Any solution??
unmount SD Card
A temporary fix would be unmounting the sd card and then installing the app. It happens on some roms..hope it fixes...works in my case.
