[Q] Gmail set up issue, cant access Android Market. - XPERIA X8 General

Hello,
I'm new with my Xperia X8 and all the Android world. I bought it used to another person, 3 weeks ago. The issue is this: I can't set up gmail account. When I go to "Setup guide" to set up gmail account, I hit the "set up" option and I get nothing on the screen. Is like not pressing the set up option at all. When I go to Market app, screen goes white as well, and no access to it. That means I can't download Android Market apps, and can't install any theme, which is what I'm trying to do. The previous owner was able to do it, because there was a few "market apps" and "no market apps" install on the phone. So, here are the steps I already completed to solve the problem. First, I reset the phone to its original settings (meaning I lost some cool apps). I rooted it, no problem there. I tried to install xrecovery to make a back up but got stuck in the process because I couldn't download a market app that was needed. Also, I changed the gmail password to set up the gmail account but it was useless. I have read a lot of threads but I can find he solution. Besides all this, my Xperia X8 works perfectly. I'll really appreciate help.

Hmmm, did u updated it to 2.1?
p.s.: u don't need anything from market to install xRecovery.

Yes, I'm using firmware version 201 -update 1

I think it can act like this when you don't have internet access or connection problems

[Troubleshoot Discussion] all Android Market problems here!

i am coming across from a rooted G1, i had about 160 apps i have managed to get most restored with mybackpro but have had market issues since i first signed in.
Apps when downloading continue to show as downloading even after they are installed, is this just a syncing delay, I know I had this with my G1 at times when switching between roms and it usually fixed it self after a few days.
If this is the case is there anything I can do to try and fix this myself, its very annoying as the whole market is app is slow.
Error opening market.
Hi,
The Internet browser on my Galaxy S I9000 opens all web pages on both, GPRS and WiFi networks. However, the following applications give me errors-
1. Market - "Server unavailable. Please try again later". For both, GPRS and WiFi networks
2. Talk - It simply shuts down without showing any dialog box on both networks.
3. Maps, Gmail, Mail, Samsung Apps - Works only on WiFi and not GPRS
I do not have a 3G network in my region yet.
Since market doesn't open; I can not download anything.
Kindly guide me with this. I am more concerned about [1] and [2].
Thanks !

Market Fix JF2 not working
Hi,
I tried everything, but its not working. I changed the build.prop (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7309462&postcount=162) wiped the cache and app cache, but still not full app catalogue in the market...
Can anyone help me?
A lot of them do, some mess up but devs are usually fast in tweaking the app to work with froyo
Upgraded to JM2 and now certain market apps missing
Hi, i'm pretty sure i'm in the right section, anyway, I upgraded to firmware JM2 and now there seems to be the odd app missing in market, not specifically paid ones.
For example myplayer is not there, is there a fix available for this or has the app just dissapeared(could anyone verify?).
Many Thanks
Replace build.prop with one from an official rom

Market Problem
Hey,
i can find all apps on Market but can't download any of them.
If i press install it says in German: "Download wird gestartet..." means more or less in english:"Download starting..." it gets stuck on this message.
I used JM2 and OneClick LagFix 2.0 market wasn't working. so i decided to reflash and don't use oneclick lagfix, but nothing.
Then i flashed JM5, bit it still doesn't work.
I also tried another googlemail account, but nothing..
Anyone has a idea? I can't even restore my backups, since i can't download titanium backup from market lol.
This has happened to me today too! Maybe it is problems with the market servers.. :/ Now I am stuck without any applications until it is fixed.
I have the exact same problem and i have also tried a factory reset, if i find a solution I will let you know.

Please Help, Messed Up

Hey guys, I've pretty tech savvy but new to playing with smartphones.
I have the Titanium backup and I removed some bloatware. (Bell Galaxy S 2.1, rooted, unlocked on Telus) I made out OK but stupid me never did a backup first.
Everything was fine until I removed Google Talk and I don't remember the other one below it. (I think it was goolge talk storage or something like that)
No when I boot the phone up I get Error com.google.process.gupps closed. And I can't download from the market. Everything else is fine afaik
Can someone help walk me through this?
A google search ?
https://wiki.ousli.org/index.php/Vo....google.process.gapps_has_stoped_unexpectedly
Thanks for the help but on my phone I don't have that option. Where do I find the place to clear it on my phone?
Wich one you don't have ? Try clearing all google stuff
There are no options on my phone that I can find for clearing anything google. I know how to clear the browser stuff but can't find anything else to clear google things. I found where I can sync my google contacts, gmail & calendar but not clear it. There's an option to remove the google account and I tried it but it says I can't delete the account because it's used by the phone and I'd have to do a factory reset.
Press your device's < Home > button, then press < Application >.
Select Settings and then Applications.
Select Manage applications.
Maybe All tab
Select Gmail Storage and then select Clear data. Answer OK when prompted.
Return to the list of applications by pressing the < Back > key.
Select Gmail and then select Clear data. Answer OK when prompted.
Restart your device (Press and hold the < End call > button, then select Power off. Press < End call > to power on).
I found and cleared google service. that fixxed the error on boot up.
But the market still wont download and angry birds beta stopped working at the same time this happened

And try to re-install angry
Thanks for the link. I am just a bit scared to install it because it says it gets rid of the radio. My market worked fine before I deleted Gtalk and Gservice.
Is there another way?
OK so just to clarify, everything on the phone worked fine before I uninstall Gtalk and Gtalk Services (I think that's what it was, it was right below Gtalk)
Can I put the Gtalk and Services back on to fix it? (If so where do I find it online? Maybe someone has a dump?)
I don't know how to install the marketfix without the market either, it just sends me to the market no matter what I do.

Receive a direct download link in your mobile
Sorry I should have told you I tried all the methods on that page. I got the direct link emailed to my phone and it just opens up in the market.

Download on computer and transfer anywhere on you sd then use my files app to install it
Thank you, I will try that tonight.
I wanted to ask too, if I wait for the official Froyo update will that fix this problem too?
Well yes cause you will flash your phone with new fw
froyo is due 2 weeks away
not sure you want to wait for that long
The EXACT thing happened to me before. I did a google search and learned that Google Talk is in fact tied to using the Market.. I had to reflash my phone's firmware to get everything back.
I recently made a backup of all the default software of my SGS including Google Talk. So I have its apk and such.. I dunno exactly if you can install it from an APK..but yeah I have it. I'll upload it for you when I get home later.
I will just reflash the phone with original firmware if I can find it. Mine is the Bell version. Will the IMEI change if I reflash it with new firmware? Mine is I9000UGJH2 currently. No updates available through kies.

(Q) Unable to delete primary google account

Platform: HTC-HD2
Android 2.2 DFT (31-12-2010)
Problem: Unable to delete primary Google account from device under Android 2.2.
Got this phone from a friend, but his google account is still linked at Market. I already created a new one for myself, but I can't install any apps, due to the linkage between his google account and Market. t
Did already tried steps under settings/Accounts & sync/Google/ remove account/ only get a massage asking to go to settings, under privacy and reset the phone, which have not been able to find. The only place I’ve found which allows you to delete accounts and personal data is under Settings/ SD & phone storage /Factory data reset. I’ve tried repeatedly resetting phone from that selection and still will not remove Google account. Resetting by deleting img-file on /sd/android works either, since there is no such file there...
Anyone a solution?
Thanks!
same problem
I just picked up a HD2 cheap just so I could play with the Android part of it..Love playing with phones so I'm not a pro quite yet but it sounds like maybe you need to re-install Android 2.2 with DFT. That should give you a clean fresh rom install. Like I said, I just started on the HD2 so I might be wrong but it might be worth a shot.
There are different ways to do it.
I would suggest to make a fresh install of your chosen rom.
If you want to keep existing rom then you need to answear this. What magldr version are you using? (To check the version, turn off phone, turn on and then quickly after hold power button till you get to magldr, check version, post it here.)

Android Market: instant 'Download unsuccessful' message

Hi everyone,
I'm positing because I have a peculiar issue. I cannot download from the Android Market....and I have tried the solutions on the internet from clearing data/cache to trying to sync my google account in different ways...
Here is the background:
- Bought used Vibrant on craigslist
- rooted, unlocked, then unrooted, then hard reset
- no external SD card
After every hard reset, in two instances now, I have been able to download from Android market SUCCESFULLY for about a ~30 min window. After this time window, any download from Market does NOT work, and after clicking 'Install' immediately goes to the red triangle status 'Download unsuccessful.'
At all times, my internet still works fine, both on 2G/3G/wifi.
Android market website does NOT show my device (is this because the device only works with the very first sync when the phone was purchased??)
Something is locking me out from downloading. It's come to such a stupid workaround that since I know Market WILL work after a hard reset, I do a mass download of my app essentials in the ~30 minutes that I have.
Thanks for any help in advance!
Clear market cache
also, setting proper permissions on /data/ and /data/app might help (with a program like root explorer)
Do you use titanium backup? Restoring any setting? I got similar problem when I freeze "media container" in titanium backup.
Had this problem when z4mod was setting incorrect permissions on /system partition
All,
To avoid the issues with any roms/rooting, I unrooted the phone, as stated in the first post.
I basically got the phone back to 'stock' settings, and I have this issue. Any additional help would be great...this is my first experience with Android and it has only been headaches....
getting nostalgic with my old E71. haha
So, did you use odin to go to jfd?
I'm really interested and willing to help, just santo make sure I understand everything that you've done.
How did you root?
Why no external?

Please help in Htc wildfire not able to download application from android market

Dear Experts,
i am new to this forum, recently i brought htc wildfire but i am unable to download any applications from android market, when i log in android market website it shows no android device found with this id try another id, this is same id which i was entered initial phone setup.
And also i am not able to open android market application in my mobile when i click on this its take some time to loading and immediately close the application.
I try many forums for the solution some people told me to make factory reset i did but same prob no use.
hope.......
regards,
if u're using stock rom it's a bit strange :s did you set your account google ?
Freshly format your phone. During initial setup add gmail account and after setup make sure you enable background data and autosync.
And first you need to use phone market application to download something. If it gives error wait for sometime and download again. Then you can even access market from browser.
And suppose if you format the phone and haven't added gmail account yet, then you cannot use market through browser until you add the account to phone and download atleast an app from phone market (actually accepting to market "terms of service" is enough. It comes for 1st time when you open market).

yes i have only normal gmail account its need any special account ????
Did you try to hard reset it? It will work. And make sure after the hard reset you have a WIFI/3G/Edge so you can follow the on-screen instructions and then try to download from the Market. You won't face any problems...
