hi guys, i found out my solution for the market download problems
had the market download problem accidentally after once rooting my i9k. Tried many ways, clear market and gtalk cache, wipe cache, factory reset, log out google, change password, change account, change sim, root after root, reboot after reboot still no working. Every time i downloaded or upgrade something, there was a download icon shown on notification shortly and disappeared. The download never finished! Reckon some of you encounter this as well.
But last night, i suddenly realised that there may be problems with my cache.rfs as i could not lagfix it to ext4 or any other form. I started to think cache.rfs is broken. So i searched on the internet and found out a kernel (k12k) only have cache.rfs, instead of zimage. My market has survived right after installation and reboot! Brilliant! Then i install newer version of kernal with zimage and still working. The kernel name is update_speedmod_k12k_500hz.tar. If you have same condition and problem with market, try it! I am not exactly remember where i downloaded this kernel from, and cannot post link cos this is my first post. But hopefully you can find it somewhere.
Good luck to your market!
here is the file FLASH with ODIN as PDA

My Vibrant is having some serious issues. I've only found one other person that seems to have my issues and that thread went out of control so I'm starting another.
Symptom:
Within 5ish (if that) minutes of a factory reset, the market will get stuck on Starting Download... for any application. Nothing fixes it. I can download 10ish applications but that's all.
Attempted Fixes:
Factory Reset
Various ROMs via Odin
Flash JFD ROM with "repartition" option selected, then flash another ROM over that without repartition
Factory Reset and different Gmail account to set up the phone
"Easy Fixes" like logging in to GTalk, resetting Market cache, switching networks and over to wifi in any combination and every other suggestion that doesn't work.
Notes:
Everything was working fine until that OTA update came in and I opted to install it without checking online to see if there were any issues. Of course, the update froze halfway through and I used Odin to install JI6, then all these issues started.
This is my first phone and it used to work perfectly well in any number of locations around where I live. Now it doesn't work anywhere.
I periodically get spammed with a lot of application downloads that I didn't initiate and they all turn up unsuccessful (since the problems started).
I tried using the Appbrain quick web installer feature which may or may not have caused the problem.
I am currently using Bionix 1.8 with VOODOO.
My wife's phone has the same set up and works. I tried her Gmail account on mine after a factory reset and I had the same issues.
Any suggestions?
When you flashed JI6 did you use the pit file?
are you restoring any backups after you flash?
I posted this in another thread. Someone did this with success and it worked for me too. The key thing "AND Uninstall updated"
I have managed to sort this now - here's what I did:
Go into settings - applications - manage applications- scroll down to market & long touch to open. Clear cache AND Uninstall updated. It will ask for confirmation and then uninstall. I then went back to market and Bluetooth file transfer downloaded and installed with no probs. Hope this helps anyone else with same problem.

Also have you ran a "Fix permissions" from RomManager? It seems to help with a lot of these strange errors ....
Sorry for not responding... work is keeping me busy.
Anyway, when I go Manage Applications, select Filter~>All and go down to Market there is nothing to do with Uninstall. I tried long clicking and that did nothing. When I click on Market, the only buttons are Clear Cache, Clear Defaults, and Force Stop. Am I missing something?
To answer other questions, both the JI6 and JFD .tar files I used (found on xda) came with their own .pit files and I did use the respective .pit files when flashing. After the flash, all I do is install Appbrain and start loading my applications again (no other restoration methods). I've run fix_permissions and that didn't help when I ran it though I've only done it once or twice in the whole process.
Note - I have Market 1714.
Cleared the download manager cache?
+1 on Fix Permissions in ROM Manager. This has fixed many market issues.
The TMo Android customer service folk had me try clearing the Download Manager's cache (and I tried again just for laughs) with no results. Tried fix permissions again with no luck. My replacement (refurbished? from TMo) should show up today.
Got the new phone (with JI6 on it and the new market that keeps applications up-to-date), flashed Bionix Fusion 1.1 and things look to be working pretty well. My signal is noticeably better than it was before (it used to be good then got worse for some reason so I guess it's back to what it used to be).
I paid $10 for 7-10 business day shipping or something like that but I got a text about it shipping on the 25th and it got here today (after being back-ordered) so I'm relatively satisfied. Sure would like to know what's wrong with the other phone and how to fix it if need be in the future but I'll just avoid accepting any OTA updates in the future.
I have struggled for a couple of days now trying to fix my market problem but still no luck.
When ever I try to update or download an app it gets aborted after just a sec. So I can't update any of my apps or download new ones.
I have tried this already:
Wipe market data both in settings and with SGS tools
Titanium market doctor
Flashed JM8 from scratch with dalvik wipe and factory reset then Doc's 9.6.6 (work on non of fthem
Tried Appbrain (but not fast web installer) nedd an .apk for it)
Don't now what more I could do now
Any ideas? Anyone else having problems the latest days? Maybe a Market problem!?
I'm now on Doc's 9.6.6 with Spedmood K13C 500hz (Got the problem after I tried the 2.3.2 leak).
Reboot recovery and clear dalvik and reboot
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Did try several times, no luck
Thats very strange, never heard of this before. I can only suggesst that you try flashing a different ROM like Darkys 9.3 final....Might not be any use
Now I also tried first flash JM8 with 512 and repartition.
And the flash one more time without repartition.
But still no downloads possible on market. "Download unsuccesful"
i got the same problem like 2-3 days now.#
any help pls. I did wipe dalvic, tryd another rom, used another market version , used another gmail account.. and so on.

You are my hero!!! My market works!!!
Okay so I flashed oodie miui today and checked it out, and then full wiped and flashed bugless beast 2/16. Once I got in I went to the market to dl titanium to get my apps back and it says "cannt download titanium backup due to an error".
So I wiped data in the market app, tried fixing permissions in CWM, wifi on and off, same error. So I downloaded code name android and I am getting the same error. I have even tried other apps and am getting the same error.
WTH? I am out of ideas, anyone have this happen to them? Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: So I now see that the market is trying to download 56 apps. If I hit stop nothing happens. So still not able to download anything.
Edit: So I have tried reflashing gaaps, reflashign rom and gaaps and unchecking restore. So in market it shows no apps trying to download and still nothing! I can't figure this out!

Best bet for you is to ask in the thread where you got the ROM from. The devs will be able to help you out. We had the same problem with the ROM I am using (Codename Android), the gapps needed to be updated and reflashed by the dev. Hope this helps you.
Hi all, wasn't quite sure where to post this so I posted here. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 SM-S975L (straighttalk) running jflte cm13 and I am having an issue. I usually get much of my advice from googling around and that leads me to xda, so since googling hasn't solved my issue I figure I'd make an account here. the problem I'm having is with Link2sd. When I first installed cm13 link2sd wasn't working, it threw an error for mount scripts, an issue resolved at the following link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65411424&postcount=19
For those who don't wanna click I typed in terminal (on the phone)
su
cd dev/block/vold
ls
ln -s public:179_66 179:66 (my directory was 179_66)
doing so solved the issue.
However after I started experiencing google play error code 504 when trying to install previously installed and uninstalled apps I found that the only solution was a factory reset (even titanium backup wouldn't work).
The first time I factory reset to solve this issue I had reset the SD card and backed up all the data, making sure to re-partition the second partition to ext2 like I had before, and link2sd worked fine.
I again experienced the same 504 issue when trying to reinstall a previously installed app so naturally I did the same process I did previously however this time after I do the terminal process to recreate the mount scripts for link2sd and reboot, and then after reboot I link the apps to the SD and reboot again for any reason, cm13 stays at the "jflte optimized cyanogenmod13" loading screen.
If I pull the battery and remove the SD card and then try to boot, everything boots fine, of course without the apps that are linked to the SD. If I put the SD card back in with the phone on, link2sd demands I recreate the mount scripts again or reboot. no matter what option I choose the phone will stay stuck at the cm13 loading screen. I read in a couple xperia threads something about an init.d script where the solution to that being to install init.d toggler from the play store and enabling init.d. I have tried this and still find myself stuck at the cm13 loading screen.
Can anyone offer an alternative solution to the ones that I have tried? I'm open to anything.
I think you should flash the stock firmware. There might be no other way. Either install the backup if you've made previously using custom recovery.

I haven't tried that yet, but that will have to be my next step. I've tried wiping dalvik&cache and then wiped everything and reinstalled the original cm13 zip I had, but I still get the same result. Link2sd was working for a time, so something happened to make it not work and continue to not work now..

Hmm I'm certain that would surely work for you.
I fixed both the issues. Very stupid solutions, almost too stupid to mention, and I feel stupid for not thinking of it. Solved the stuck at boot issue by not linking all the apps at once and instead linking five or six at a time then rebooting and repeating until all my apps were finally linked. Solved the google play 504 error by going into link2sd and selecting the "clean up second partition" option, the apps wouldn't install because there were still files linked from the previous time I had installed it. Thank you for your help.
hello, i have a new problem found few days ago and been trying to fix it but to no avail.
here is how it started.
i tried to install an app called fsecure vpn network from google play. then the phone when into a bootloop. then i did a clean wipe (reset, wipe cache and dalvik from recovery) but somehow my files were not gone. that is some kinda miracle i have no idea how it happened.
since then my phone have issue whenever i installed mihome:
-. google play services, trebuchet, package installer, and some other has stopped.
-. cannot open apps list in settings when mihome is present. the settings just stopped and crashed.
-. if i try to open the mihome, the phone goes reboot.
-. even uninstalling mihome from application list is not working, the package installer stopped. have to uninstall from google play.
-. i tried to make a bluetooth printer app, but when i put the app-debug.apk into my phone. file manager would crash whenever it tried to read the file. even by just scrolling down. example: file manager work fine if the file is not copied inside (meaning we can scroll around and not crash). but once the file is copied in then the file manager will work if we dont scroll down to find the file, but when we scrolled down to find the file then the app crash.
things i've tried:
-. clean wipe then reflashing rom and gapps.
-. manually update google play store, download google package installer and reinstall it.
-. tried to download google play services apk but was unable to install it.
-. tried the idea of clearing cache of google play service but still no luck (force stop was disabled anyway so i cant try that)
i have no idea how this all happen just because i tried to install that fsecure app. its not even fully installed yet. it was just starting to install after download then this hell happened.
im desperate for some help as i've tried for 3 days in fixing it but to no luck. any helps would be very appreciated.
thanks and regards,
hendry

Hello,
Did you try to reinstall Stock ROM ?
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-grand2/SM-G7102/
It happened to me that sometimes, apps or rom just run into a bug and maybe it corrupt the firmware but after a Stock ROM flash (via Odin) + custom recovery (via Odin) to wipe Cache + Data, everything was fix.
Hai, could u possible post me a tutorial on how to do those thing via odin? Coz i usually only do it via cwm. Thanks

Did you try to flash a recovery only ?
Maybe your firmware/system is not corrupted and then you could just reflash a clean rom ?
In Odin, Select AP and load your recovery.tar
I am having the very same issue. The difference is that it's happening with Spotify, Xposed and Relay for Reddit. So yeah it's been much worse for me. I will try to flash stock rom + reinstall another recovery and see if it fixes. By the way, I got a couple of questions:
1 - Does the country that I select when downloading the stock ROM matters?
2 - Which Recovery can you guys recommend? There's a bunch here but not sure if all them are worthy
Okay so I flashed an Indian stock ROM (I'm not indian nor live in the country), then I wiped all data, so I could boot. This is the default procedure to revert back to a Stock ROM.
After that, I noticed the Wifi wasn't working, probably due to the Stock rom I've downloaded. Anyway, I installed a custom Recovery (even an updated version of what I used before, then I reinstalled Ressurection Remix, and tried again.
....It didn't work. Relay for Reddit crashes everything, Spotify puts my phone into a bootloot. Same with Xposed. I have no idea what to do anymore. Someone, please help. I really can't afford to buy another phone right now and I really need those apps. Expecially Spotify.

Okay, so I guess there won't be any need for that. I've redownloaded the stock ROM, but this time, I checked my phone Serial Number so I could download the right stock ROM for my phone. Now everything seems to be working again. Spotify and Relay installed without any issue. I will now try to reflash recovery and then another ROM and see if the problem persists.
For those who don't know how to check your Serial number, it's right above your android version, at the "About phone" section on Settings.
I still need advice on which Recovery I should use.
Anyway, thank you guys. I probably would't be able to solve this without your help.
UPDATE: I've installed TWRP 3.1.0.0, and also rooted the phone using it. Still on stock ROM. Everything seems to be still working without problems. I think I'll stick with it for now. Maybe later I'll try to lash a Custom ROM and see if it still works.

Hi,
I'm glad you fixed you're problem. Sticking on Stock ROM is the best thing you can do if you need your phone as every functionnality is checked and working.
I personnaly use TWRP as recovery, its good you got usb, root and everything you need to backup/restore your phone + reset your phone.
