Market Downloads & GTalk

Hi there. Anyone managed to find a fix for this annoying issue.
When you try and download an app from the market, the download will not start until you sign in / out of Google Talk.
I have unselected 'Automatically sign in' on Google Talk but it still signs itself in.
The only way to start the download is to click on GTalk and click sign out.
I have also tried uninstalling Google talk but I can't.
I am using WiFi on an unlocked HTC Hero running Legendary v1.3.5 (2.1) ... I have already wiped the caches (Market, GTalk etc)
your help is much appreciated.
Thanks

Reboot........
Or just wait some downloads take a while to start.
Or cancel the download and start it again.
Loads of options that seem to work.

sadly there seems to be the option that it doesn't work at all. i managed to steer my mcr3.1 installation to this point now at least twice, i tried everything, only way to bring back the market downloads was a wipe. lol actually i did that less than an hour ago

[Q] Apps after a Factory Reset

I have a Droid X. I recently did a factory reset then upgraded to Froyo. Some of my apps appear in my "app page" and others do not. They show in the market as being downloaded but I can only open them from there. I can't get the icons to show up on my phone. Any Ideas?

Did you try just uninstalling them and reinstalling them?

I did. Still not working. It's more of an annoyance than anything else. I just don't like when a $600 gadget can't do something that's so simple as replace my app icons after a reset. Plus, the apps that I have downloaded since the reset aren't being posted to my app page either.

Have you tried rebooting?

are you using launcherpro and maybe hid the icons?

I had one app that was hidden in the market the day of the upgrade. The next day it showed up in searches so I was able to download it.

What is contactsunconnected.apk?

For some reason everytime I restart my phone and check Titanium Backup there's an app called "contactsunconnected.apk" that's frozen. I always unfreeze it, but the next time I restart my phone it's frozen again. I've google searched like crazy and I can't find ANYWHERE that tells what this file does. Do you guys know? Why does it keep freezing? Should I leave it frozen? Should I always defrost it? Ugh, this is frustrating.

Market downloads

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?

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

[Q] Setting App Defaults Issue PLEASE HELP!

So i am having a issue on my S4, i have searched around and found it to be a problem on many other peoples s4's
When i set a downloaded app. Lets say Apex launcher for example, i press the home key and click to have Apex as my launcher then i choose Always, but when my phone reboots, it doesnt store then infomation so i have to choose it again on boot cause there are two launchers installed. This also happens for things like Google Keyboard (it didn't come pre installed on my phone) im sure it isnt hardware fault cause it happens on my Galaxy ace 3. its really frustrating cause built in apps such as you tube and the stock browser keep there app defaults such as youtube app to open when i click a video on the browser :/ anyone know what i can do?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Have you got it set as the default under Settings>More>Default applications>Home......
I am currently using Nova as the default without having to keep setting it as the default :fingers-crossed:

No problem solved for my S4 but I cant find that on my Ace 3 it just has, application manager and I can only reset the default in there

Ok so I have have just tried nova and I dont have a issue once I have reset the phone. I dont know if this is cause I emergency restored my phone using kies and its fixed the issue or if when my phone was resetting it was deleting the dalvik cache or what I dont know will try google keyboard again and see how it goes
