cant download from market after going back to a 2.1 rom from 2.2 beta

i need some help. i cant download from the market after i went back to a 2.1 rom from a 2.2 beta rom. any ideas?

Is it stuck on downloading?
Usually when it is, I just leave it there-- then after a few minutes, it will tell you it's installing.
You can also try going to Settings > Applications > Market and clearing data and cache. Then open up market again and let it refresh.

i tried that already and it still hasnt changed. even did a factory reset twice

I SO don't know what I'm talking about. Ever. But especially here.
However having said that, perhaps you flashed the baseband to 2.2 with the modem file and Odin, and need to flash it back to a 2.1.
Anyone confirm/feel free to correct me and call me names....
Also I've had issues with the market upon restoring backups after trying out different ROMs. Sometimes I stop all the backed-up market downloads, then clear the cache, the reboot and try downloading apps again one or two at a time and that works. Recently I had an issue where the market thought I didn't have a program installed, but I did have it from a Titanium backup. Market kept trying to restore it. Then I uninstalled it from my Epic and reinstalled it from the market.

I had the same issue when I reverted back to 2.1. Are you doing a restore from a nandroid backup? I tried doing a straight nandroid restore, failed. I tried wiping and flashing a 2.1 rom and then doing a data restore, failed. Finally, I just gave up and forwent the data restore. I had to rebuild everything, but it worked.
I'm sure you can find a more elegant solution, but it's what worked for me.

Ibwas having the same problem. It was caused by restoring from a nandroid backup. I just reflashed and restored all my apps manually
Tapatalkin it from my Epic 4G

i fixed it by going back to the 2.2 beta rom i was using. i reverted back to 2.1 because gps wasnt working but now gps is working on 2.2 and i have market access. i would say close this thread but i sure somebody else will have this problem and need the help so leave it open

Completely Hosed....

Alright, so....
I did a complete voodoo uninstall per Adrenalyns thread, ODIN back to stock, re-root. On either DI01 or DJ05 I have no market download ability, my Gtalk wont open (immediately closes) and nothing I do seems to work. I have ODIN'd about four times now, and no luck so far,
Any ideas?

Lol. I've tried everything I think. This is new to me. Will do this again and pst results.
Edit: No dice. Market says starting download, but never pulls anything down. Try to open Gtalk, and it just immediately closes down. Going to look at steps in next post. I'm really frazzled at this point.

Root explorer is the only file manager I have tried that can do step 2 easily though... And you may not have it installed given your predicament. Also note that titanium backup released a new version today that improves data wiping support for Galaxy S phones.
EDIT: I had run into the same issue with Market myself. Happened when I flashed stock kernel from adrynalyne's completely unvoodoo thread over my existing DJ05 (prerelease) Blackhole 2.2 using CWMR. I have never once installed Voodoo, so it was not related.
I didn't spend time troubleshooting it though. Nandroid restore via rom manager fixed me.

Found an .apk of root explorer and no dice on all the listed steps. I did try a nandroid as well. I don't know what the hell is up. Gah.

Adrynalyne has a sweet Odin package under the development forum. Its called di01package3.tar and its a single flash file of about half a gig. I would link it but I am in a rush. It should be on the second page. Its a great package I've tried to brick my phone and this brings it back all the time. Tell me how it goes.

Found that this morning and flashed it. Also did a standard restore, file by file. whatever the problem is, it's on my phone, and it's not something that is being overwritten with the ODIN files. I even signed in under my finace's login and had the same market issues, otherwise I would assume it was my google profile.

ROFL. So check this, I copied a full nandroid backup from my gf phone to mine, flashed it.....
Still no market. Ha. Fing. Ha.

Lol damn dude that's the ****s :/

Just pointing out that Daswolven is up to exactly 666 posts right now.
He may really have to take it to Verizon now and tell them his phone needs an exorcism. But as stated before, it would be best to figure out what the hell happened... he did nothing wrong, and he tried everything in the playbook. Stumped! *Bump*

Have you wiped data/cache from stock recovery? Thats the only thing I can think of.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App

Yeah, he exhausted my entire list (Re: post 4), AND did fallingup's backtostock recovery steps, AND did Adrynalyne's all inclusive backtostock MEGA Odin recovery, AND did a stock nandroid recovery. His phone is a scientific mystery at this point.

Mystery it is. I managed to screw something up that is beyond ODIN or backup. lol. I'm sure it's voodoo related. Have some ideas to play with tomorrow though. we'll see.

Just curious, if Odin was used, which destroys voodoo (especially if using my odin file), how can it be a voodoo issue?
Reset your gf's phone and put your account data in. Wouldn't shock me if market failed on her phone.

Sounds like your problem is with your Google account. My bro in law had the exact problem with his fascinate and his was completely stock. His account miraculously started working again out of the blue after like 2 days lol. Good luck.

Just as a side note. I find my life happiest if I refresh all of my titanium backups before a data wipe, ESPECIALLY adw.
I have suspicions that some combination of rejiggered app versions between updates confuses the hell out of some shoddily written code in market so it is always nice to be able to go to the exact setup you recently had for everything you installed before the update. I say the bug is with Google Market.
When it sees this kind of error, it should be smart enough to recognize that no download is happening, and handle it in some way, or throw an error. Sitting there dumb-struck shows a lapse in engineering. And whomever might be in the peanut gallery that wants to bring up the halting problem and Alan Turing... he died of cyanide poisoning. Market is too important to be this fragile... bottom line!
Speaking of that, did you happen to try Titanium Backup's Market Doctor under settings? I doubt it will do anything for you. But hey, why not?
That said... Never seen anything that Odin couldn't save me from.

Enter recovery > advanced > format system and everything else in that menu that says format then ODIN.

Not only does my market work on her phone, but when I log into mine as her it doesn't. added to the mystery is my verizon app doesn't recognize my number, but tech support was unable to correct.
I did use titanium market doctor. I honestly think I've tried everything. lol.
I am beginning to believe my issue has to be a verizon network problem. There's no way that I can see it being hardware or software at this point. What the hell they would have to do with anything I have no clue.
As for voodoo, I only know that was where the problem started. I was flash happy and tried to flash Superclean 0.9 directly over a stock build straight from rom manager without disabling or using the red CWM. phone wouldn't boot past Sammy logo. Couldn't boot from a restore, and that's where my trips to ODIN started.
But yeah, once there, voodoo shouldn't have anything to do with it. In the end, it was just my not paying attention. lol.

After trying everything in the book, no dice. I did the unthinkable, and called Verizon tech support after reverting completely to stock. They couldn't troubleshoot it, of course, and sent a replacement. Came in today. Logged in, went to market, works fine.
Logged back into my other and no dice.
At this point the issue is a mystery, but at least it's resolved. I hate replacing like that, I always disagree with it, but I did actually try everything. lol.

Glad you have a working phone again Daswolven, sorry it took a trip to vz replacement.
I just blew away my market too. In my case, I was upgrading my blackhole install the lazy way. I narrowed down the cause to be wiping data and then being overzealous with Titanium.
I fixed by (wiping data again and) purging counter-productive backups, particularly:
* deleting my Accounts system data backup (copied gmail password from keypass instead)
* deleting my adw backup (adw has its own means of backing up settings and layout)
* continuing to abuse titanium
Note: this wouldn't have fixed Daswolven's problem.
As a side note, clockwork recovery froze up twice looking for data pre-install. Turned out to be nnd, just a battery pull.
All good now.

do you actually have the market, or is the google apps zip not flashing at all?
try clearing the data and cache from the market app(settings, applications, then choose market app, then hit clear data and cache). See if that fixes your downloading issues.

I dont have the market, the rom doesn't come with any apps put in by google and it wont let me install any apps whatsoever through the file manager..and i have no marketplace either so it's just ridiculous.. lol but whatever i've decided to go back to ice glacier till cm7 is good...ice glacier is MUCH more stable

Appears you haven't followed cm7 install instructions. gapps zip should be flashed the FIRST time you install, along with the ROM. Then, on your first use of the Market app - automatic or you cancel out during first boot provisioning sequence - Market will download all your previously installed apps for you. Like magic.

i tried everything. what you said what i said what others told me. nothing worked.

You stated Market was not installed. You also stated you followed directions correctly. One of those can't be the case.
Try a complete reinstall. From recovery, format /system, factory reset, then reinstall both cm7 and gapps from their zips. On the first boot, you'll be prompted to select some apps from Market. You can cancel out to set up wifi or do other stuff...but the first time you run Market you'll get the same opportunity. When Market runs, all apps you've downloaded will be downloaded again.
Be very careful restoring any system data from Titanium Backup. Email data and SMS data, AW Launcher should be ok.
HTC Glacier running CM7 #28

go to rom manager.
under "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"
Your current recovery should be 2.5.1.4 and not 2.5.1.2
Be sure you have the latest build to install gapps.
May the force be with you.

Not trying to sound like an ass but I honestly have tried everything you guys have said but they all did not work I didn't com on here and ask for help when there's many threads for that I've looked I'm not the retard that reads nothing and then asks for help..I posted this thread cause nothing has worked whatsoever..

Let's get this straight. You did a COMPLETE wipe as described, installed cm7, installed gapps, booted, and you weren't prompted to run Market or cancel during that first boot sequence? Or after your boot completed, Market wasn't installed?

Yep i've even tried installing cm6 same problem..i guess i was not destined for cm..

I can only think of two possibilities. You will, I'm sure, laugh at #2, and assume it is an impossibilty. Yet I think it more likely than #1. But you can test #1 by creating a new, temporary gmail account. If you don't get Market, then the answer must be the one you don't believe: #2.
1. There is something dreadfully wrong with your gmail account settings.
2. You are missing a critical step in the installation process.
If you do find things working with your new gmail account, you could compare account information and try to effect repairs -- Google's dashboard might be a place to start.

yea if your not getting market thats a big issue..... are you using the right gapps? cause CM6 and CM7 have different Gapps i think. i know you think we're a bit retarded cause you've gone through and tried all these methods. but unless you give us a FULL detailed account of exactly everything you did we won't know. not to bash just letting you know. and yea i know its frustrating just take your time. dont want to brick your phone.

nah i kno you guys are trying to help lol ill try the gmail account thing tho and let you guys kno how it goes :] and i also used the gapps appropriate for each cm hehe i generally follow exactly what needs to be done... but thnx for the help guys sorry if i went off earlier..

Have you tried a fastboot wipe before installing CM7? That would be my suggestion. Also, make sure you are flashing thru recovery so you can make sure to be able to see any errors while flashing. It sounds like it isnt even installing any of the apps that are included. You can also use a file explorer and look in your system/app folder and see if anything from the gapps zip has been installed. You can also take the vending.apk and push it via adb or copy and paste it via Androidmate (free in market). Just make sure you check and fix the permissions to match all the other apps in the folder.
I really think a fastboot wipe will do it but you can try and check the other stuff first. Maybe it is placing them but not installing for some reason.

Well the gapps aren't the only problem tho which is why I don't think it's an installation problem. Even if iI tried installing other apps it just says app not installed like the package installer isn't working...maybe the main problem lies there?

[Q] LauncherPro Plus keeps refreshing - possible SD Card issue?

I wasn't sure where to post this so I hope this will do...
All of a sudden today my MT4G with LauncherPro Plus keeps refreshing or restarting or something on the home screen. Sometimes it does it every minute or so other times it does it so rapidly the home screen isn't even showing up before it does it again.
Worst part aside from the annoying bright flash every time it happens is that it kicks me out of apps to do it.
It's not a Force Close and no errors pop up it just refreshes to the Home screen as if I hit the Home button or restarted LauncherPro.
I am so confused.
I have no new apps recently, but I did Root a few days ago using The Unlockr's Visionary root.sh method. Had no problems when doing it and phone has been fine since until this. No custom ROM yet, still on Stock 2.2.1 while I research which one I want to get.
I already wrote to the LauncherPro people who thought it might be because Keep in Memory was checked, but it isn't checked so no help there.
There was one point when I unmounted my SD card to put it in the pc to get to the files because this issue kept kicking me out of Astro and I couldn't get anything done. And while the card was out, it did not do it. As soon as the card was back in though it started up again.
Sometimes restarting LP will help, but other times it will make it go more frequently. So frustrating.
Can anyone help or at least point me in the right direction. I have a video of it if that will help to post it, but it doesn't show much, just the home screen restarting several times. Also happy to provide any more info anyone thinks might be helpful it stopping this.
Thanks so much!

Yes, I have my settings backed up and I've tried to uninstall it, but I can't stay in the market or manage apps long enough to do it, it keeps kicking me out. Is there another way to get to the uninstall screen for it?

OK thank you very much I will check that out tomorrow. Don't want to try something new half asleep. LOL

Uninstall didn't work :-( it's still doing it. Not quite as frequently but bad enough I am still getting kicked out of apps. I'm wondering if it is even a launcherpro issue since I never had a problem before yesterday. Any and all suggestions, help, advice and ideas welcome. I'll try anything this is driving me crazy!

Lol try the Uninstall method but instead install another launcher then press the home button to choice the newly installed launcher and see if that works ?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

Tried ADW Launcher and it did the same thing :-( Guess it is not LP after all. I put LP back and reboot. As of now it is not doing it, but I am very afraid to reboot or do anything in case it starts up again LOL
Can't help wondering if when I flash a new ROM it might stop altogether...

is this issue solved?

well depending on what ROM you have installed (Im assuming stock froyo after reading the OP), just run the ROM Manager app and then "reboot into recovery". from there, the recovery screen comes up. you can then "wipe cache partition", then "advanced>wipe dalvik cache". finally, "advanced>fix permissions" and after its done you can then reboot your phone. this USUALLY fixes a lot of problems with FC's and other issues

Update: It has continued to do it, not constantly, and seemingly randomly, but yeah, not totally fixed. Going to flash the new CM7, trying to fix other issues, maybe that will help.
I did try your above advice, wiped the caches, fixed permissions... it was stable for a few days then started up again. Really bad at first, like I wasn't even seeing the screen before it flashed again repeatedly. That was about a week or so ago... Now it is still doing it but every couple minutes instead. I mostly don't notice it unless I am in one of the apps it kicks me out of when it happens. Really really annoying. hopefully the new ROM will help.

Has anyone else been having this problem or found a solution. I've been trying to flash a new ROM this weekend, but can't stay in any apps long enough to prepare the phone for it. Titanium Backup and ROM Manager keep closing because of the launcher restarts. Not force closes, they just exit out and go back to the home screen which just keeps refreshing. I can't stay in Apps2Sd Pro long enough to move apps, can't stay in the market to update apps, and can't uninstall anything, I can't even stay in Astro long enough to do anything. It's driving me insane and I really want to make sure as many apps as I can are moved to the SD card and backed up to flash the new ROM. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!

[Q] Error! Superuser BUSTED!

So yesterday I decided I was going to play around with the different roms like I do my phone w/ my tablet.. Bad idea. The same usual steps to backing up and restoring are supposed to be the same. maybe not so much.
I decided to try out the new Revolution theme by thor, so i made a backup of where i was at before the wipe and subsequent install. Install went on without any issue, I played with it for a while, decided I wanted to go back to my latest backup. Performed the restore and went to bed.
When I went back to the tablet it had successfully rebooted with all my prior settings in place. Except one thing. Superuser wont work, and I cant download the updater fix in the market. So my rooted device is now unrooted with Taboony 2.1b rom. None of the apps we are all accustomed to using will work without superuser working.
Has anyone experienced this, is there a fix I just havent seen? I have searched and searched and searched. Well versed in google

With reflash of rom you will have root again, but do a full backup of your rom using cwm and then restore your backup and you will once again be left without root.

The fix I got was, i got into cwm and flashed the new mix rom and viola, everything works as it should lol

There have been issues with SU in Taboonay. Happens after a backup / restore. I had the same thing.
For a more complete solution check the thread on Taboonay / DEV in the forum, but the short answerthat worked for me with Taboonay is : uninstall SetCPU, Reflash 2.1, reboot, reflash 2.1b. this worked for me...
Good luck!
