Hey guys, appears that Android is aware of the Market issues an are working on a fix. So far I can now view paid for apps without seeing the error message. Be patient, we should know issues like his can happen, especially with a new OS
Yeah, Looks like the scrolling bar is back
i thought there was something wrong with my Xoom. cuz i saw notice this in the morning and i even did a reboot to see if it was gonna be fix. but sadly nothing happen. then out of the ble i got updates on other paid apps, that i could not find in the market. so i get updates on previoud paid apps, but can;t buy new once. but i now know it's a bug. hopefully it can be fix sooner then later.
Youtube app
I just bought a brand new Wi-fi Motorola Xoom. I went straight to Marketplace to download all the apps i wanted and for some reason I am not able to download the Youtube app. It goes into start downloading and then it just disappears and goes under "Not installed". Am I the only one or is the something I can do? I didn't want to factory reset yet until I know if I am the only one or not.
The youtube app in Market is for phones.
If you don't have Youtube on your Xoom, go to settings > Applications > Manage aplications > All and find Google Partner Setup, click Clear data and restart your Xoom.

Hello everybody!
I have a problem with downloading games/apps from Android market. Everything was working normaly, till two days ago, when i tried to download something from Android market. My Wildfire has started the download, but then the download stopped by it self (it was no longer visible in notifications bar) and now it is the same every time i want to download something. So now i cant download anything from market. I haven't changed any settings which could result in this problem. What should i do to fix this problem? Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks for your answers!!!
Problems here too.
I got a Desire and got the same issue. What's happening?
same probelm here... getting very annoying now
Also here since yesterday
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Yes, here too.
Im on HD2 with a Mdeejay rEVOlution android rom.
Dont now what it is !
And yes sins yesterday !
Everybody have this problem !
There's a fault in the Market,
Now at the moment there's 1 option ;
Login @ "Google Talk"-application on your phone,
and then just close the app, it would work.
App brain too!!
same problem. It's also happening with App brain. Can take as much as 5-6 attempts before it works (if it works)
Found a solution to this problem. Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> select Market and Clear cache. Then reboot your phone. It worked for me, hope it will for you too.
i think google is working on market to get PayPal enabled i saw an screenshot of an Dev acc where he had to enter paypal infos to his acc
check if u got your network mode set on : GSM/WCDMA.....i cant download with only GSM enabled
PayPal causing the hangup?
So rumour has it PayPal is coming to the Android Market tomorrow. I say rumour because I'm not sure about the release date, although I do know PayPal is coming. You think this could be the reason the Market is so crappy lately?
But until the launch, what I've been doing is downloading one app at a time and waiting for it to finish installing before starting the next download. You gotta make sure there aren't any apps downloading at the same time so cancel them all. If it fails, cancel and start again until it works. I've been having to do this all weekend but let's hope the PayPal integration is the cause and that it's all over by tomorrow so I can start buying more apps
My market works fine, does this mean pay pal isn't coming to all countries lol
I hope it is. We'll see soon enough though. My market also seems to be behaving now, but still no sign of any alternative payment methods yet. I'll keep checking though. CM6 and PayPal purchases within a week? It must be christmas!
I keep having trouble updating apps. For instance now it tells me that there are 3 apps that need updating. I tell it to update, it downloads the update then it says "attention required. tap here".
I tap and it says "can't play or download. There's a problem with the license".
These are just free apps and not large and I'm not letting it lock mid update or anything like that. I've worked around it by deleting the apps reinstalling, but it keeps happening the next time it needs to update.
Any ideas?
I had a problem like this, and it's a really poor design of this page; Where it says 'attention required' on the download page, hold down and a context menu will appear with 'retry' and 'cancel'
I have retried over and over and it just never completes. I deleted the update and I restarted the phone and still the same thing.
Getting a bit annoying
Still can't update any apps. Am I the only one?
Are they trial versions? Seems to be an issue where an update is pushed out for the paid version that doesn't apply to the trial, and the update doesn't go through but you still get notified about it. That's what I've heard (secondhand) from MS support, anyway.
Thanks for the reply. I deleted just about all the apps and it looks like updates started working again. Of course when I deleted the apps it wouldn't let me reinstall apps again, even one's I've paid for. This seems to have settled down after some time and a couple phone reboots.
All in all the whole marketplace and updating thing seems like a real mess from what I have seen, even when things are working right.
I hope we get some updates sometime soon.
Thanks again

willp2, did the apps reinstall when you synced your phone or did you have go to marketplace to redownload them? I'm having the same problem. Except one of the apps is one I purchased but never got to download because of the error.
I had to re-download them. It wouldn't let me at first, but after rebooting the phone I was able to redownload from the phone. I was never able to reinstall from the Zune desktop.
Has anyone else had the problem where you're browsing the market on your a500, click to download an app, and it simply doesn't download?
About 70% of the time (conservative estimate) the "taskbar" shows that an app is downloading, but the "My Apps" panel in the market doesn't show that download. If I leave it alone, the taskbar reports that the download completed, but I don't see the app anywhere. I also noticed that if I'm browsing the market on my PC and I send an app to be downloaded on my tablet, if the "My Apps" panel isn't open on the tablet, the app will not download.
I'm running the stock OTA 3.1 ROM.
I get that a lot. I am forced to hit back and then select install or download the app a 2nd time. Not sure why.
I have always had this same problem ,even after updates from the Market. I hate the Market. It turns into a major thing just trying to download anything. It's very frustrating and takes 10 minutes of trying, trying again, cussing, connection time outs. Its pretty bad when we have a Android device and its a Android market and they still can't get it right. Maybe it's a Honeycomb thing? Maybe they should call apple and get some advice?
> I am forced to hit back and then select install or download the app a 2nd time. Not sure why.
+1
common issue
Go into settings
Application
Manage applications
Browse to the market app
Clear app data.
This will sometimes fix that issue but only for a while
Worked for me
Good luck
I've had the same problem. Running Taboonay custom ROM version 2.0.
market
Same here have had that problem and so does wife. I get a kick out of wife she gets frustrated and impatient and swears at it.....lmao
So for a while there I was having the same issue. I went into clock work recovery and wipe dcache and battery stats and now all is well again. I would recommend that.

My issues seems to be that when I try to pull down an app, it tells me that it is unable to purchase. And suggestions?
I've had that a few times where I couldn't purchase an app. I found that purchasing through the online market works fine and auto-installs into the right device. It might have something to do with the lack of phone and IMEI number; could be wrong though.
Also, buying stuff with my phone then installing on my tablet works fine.
Go to settings applications Tonto market app then clear . Simple fix. Simple fix
Tried all this stuff still dont work
So i tried all this stuff and it still wont even download anymore it just FC when i click the my apps button FC this is really annoying. Went to market on pc it even says the app is installed on my device and it is soooooo not. Saw on another thread someone said Google was blacklisting users they know are rooted which i think is just dumb and dont believe, who cares what we do to the device we are still running android and want to purchase apps from the store. super lame well gonna try few other things then guess reinstall rom and kernel and see if that helps thank got for titanium backup
Not sure if this is the right place to post or not.
I just purcahsed a new Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. Set it up and noticed the Android Market Icon was still there??? Went to download some apps and it prompted me to download Playstore. After Playstore was downloaded imediatly started freezing up and forcing close. Uninstalled, re-booted, reinstalled again and same problem. Unistalled, did master reset, did another initial set-up, went to Playstore and same problem. Wasted an hour of my life on the phone with T-mobile customer care and tech support then wasted another 35 minutes with Samsung tech support with no positive outcome. So this moring I turn to the internet and the real experts. Doing a quick google search I see that in the past week or two there have been a huge influx of Playstore complaints that sound similar to mine and it appears they are not device or carrier specific. Has Google come out an said there is a problem? Anyone else on here having any issues? FYI, I did confirm that I am running the most recent updates.
I checked and I do have the most recent system update on my device. I am not a "geek" but have been using Android devices since before they were availabel to the public and this Samsung is my 6th Android device so I am not a newb, that being said I am ready to throw my new Tab through a wall because I can usually work my way through glitches and get them corrected on my own. I was using a crappy old Viewsonic G-Pad before this, I thought I was upgrading but thet old rooted G-Pad is far better than this garbage.
Thanks in advance.
so are you saying you are on android version 4.0.4? that version should have come with the "play store".
I haven't had any issues myself, but you can try going into settings-applications, and then select the market/play store and clear data and cache. You can also uninstall updates if it still acts up.

Yes, it is version 4.0.4 yet it has an Android Market icon not a play store icon, I was very suprised when I saw that icon, I have not seen it in months on my other devices, i thought it was a thing of the past. Once I go into android market and try to install an app it then tells me I need to upgrade to Play Store, I click continue, download play store and that is when all hell breaks lose. Once I unistall the Play Store update it runs fine until I try to download another app through the market.
Not sure if this could help, but have you tried, instead of the factory reset, clearing data on Play Store and Google Services Framework, restarting and trying again? Ran into some Play Store trouble this past week and this seemed to solve it
I am having the same problem. I just got this 10.1 t-mobile tablet. I can't do anything because it is constantly popping up saying play store has stopped unexpectedly. I have uninstalled the update, cleared the data and cache. Nothing is working. I am essentially dead in the water as this pops every 30 seconds.
Saw the same problem on my friend tab
My only solution was to root and put cm9 on it. Works great now.

Hi all, First of all I have CM10.1 20130210 on my phone. (Had 20130208 when I noticed the problem, But I dont think thats the cause)
I normally check for CM updates & Play Store every night. Yesterday I wanted to check the Play Store but when I opened it it took me straight to the Categories page (It normally takes me to some "General Featured" page).
When I go into any of the categories it takes me to more categories into that one (Games>Racing/Action/Puzzle/etc) it didnt do that before.
After I go into one of those its just a grey screen, The store is blank.
I tried going into My Apps & Its blank. If I go into the All tab though they all show, Clicking on one of those apps does take me to its page & If I try to download a previously uninstalled app it does download and work properly.
Something very weird: The same thing happens in the Webstore, No app shows when going into Editor's Choice & When manually going into the categories its just blank. Going into app pages via my own apps do work.
Ive tried clearing the data of the Play Store (Settings>Apps>All>Google Play Store>Clear Data)
Ive tried reflashing my phone (Thats why I went from 20130208 to 20130210)
Ive tried Force Stopping, Clearing data & Rebooting
Ive tried unsyncing & Resyncing my Google Account
Ive tried uninstalling & Reinstalling Gapps (goo.im/gapps)
Any ideas on how I can fix this? I ran out of ideas myself...
Some screens of what happens, the one with the categories is what the store opens to, the other one is what happens if i go anywhere else.
Ive been trying to fix this all day & Most things Ive found seem to be fixed by wiping the cache or returning the DPI to its default state.
Thing is, I already tried option 1 & I never changed the DPI on my phone. (I dont even know how to do it)
Just tried changing the DPI & Nothing...
I installed Best Apps Market on my phone (Had to google it & Make it directly lead me to the Play Store page coz the Play Store doesnt work)
Basically you can browse apps through there & When you want to dowmload it takes you to the Play Store (Native app) page.
It did work & Display apps properly but they all said that they werent available in my country. I tried a VPN on my PC & Bam, Play Store works.
That seems to be the problem, Somehow my country got messed up but I cant seem to change it. I did manage to change it on Google Account>Settings>Email Edit>Country but that did nothing. Any help?
Did you get any help on this? did you resolve this problem ? i have the save the same problem. did the same things you did, but no solution

Nope, But I am 100% sure that it has to do with country settings.
I tried 1 last thing today: Completely wiping EVERYTHING off my phone & Reinstalling everything. Nothing.
I also noticed a few "Market Unlocker/Enabler stopped working!" threads these past 3 days, So basically Google did something.
I contacted support & This is an email I got yesterday:
Thanks for this valuable information. We really appreciate it, and it's because of people like you that we can improve the Google Play experience for all users.
We are currently aware of this problem with Android apps on Google Play and are trying to resolve it. This complex issue involves several areas of the Google Play Store app and is not an easy fix, so I don’t have a good estimate on how long it will take us to resolve it. As soon as I have any updates, I’ll be the first to let you know.
I really appreciate you taking the time to let us know about the details of your specific case; each time we hear more details, it helps us make a better solution. I hope that despite this, you will keep using the Google Play Store app and keep sending us valuable feedback when things don’t go as expected.

So yeah, Nothing you or I can do about it.
What Imma do next is install a 3rd party app market that doesnt use the Play Store at all (Anybody got any recommendations?)
I have the same issue, when i first start play store it opens categories and then blank page...
the only way i can download apps from play store is from my pc.
I tried all of the above "tips" but got no solution.

Uhmm, That seems more like a phone related problem than anything else. You sure you tried all the things possible? (Even completely reinstalling everything?)
