I don't know why, but very frequently with my app downloads either the install request won't go through; or i'll be downloading an app until the market suddenly says I'm say not downloading anything though the status bar on my tab will show progress, except when the download "finishes" nothing happens. Does anyone else have these problems or have any ideas for solutions?
yes, i experienced it today using my 3g connection. I switched to wifi and everything works fine.
I'm having this issue as well. Sometimes after its done downloading it disappears and I need to reinstall. Other times the download stops and disappeares. It doesn't happen enough for it to be a problem for me, as it will usually take the second time around.

Anyone else having problems with Open Spot? I wanted to try it out, but whenever I try to load it, it crashes. Sometimes it crashes as soon as the GPS icon flashes, sometimes I can see a map before it crashes, sometimes I can actually move the map, but they all end up with a crash. I think the longest I've had it open is about 10 seconds or so. Any ideas?
I think the motorola launcher is the problem, when I switched to launcher pro openspot works fine

Same problem with mine using stock.

I'm having the same problem, very frustrating. Does not work with ADW or LauncherPro.
And yet it still shows up in my battery use list taking up 3s of processor by 4-5 minutes of GPS
Mine will get far enough to even view the map, but then suddenly close. You'll notice comments in the market about it not working on Droid X as well. I can also confirm it does not load on ADW
Until yesterday if I had an app like Pandora or ESPN Radio playing/running when the screen kicked off the app would keep playing. However, now when the phone goes to sleep everything else gets shut off. I have not altered anything myself per se. Even uninstalled a few apps like AutoKiller [which I had installed for weeks and everything worked fine with it on and installed] but the problem persists and remains. This really perplexes me as I want/need these apps to play with the screen off like they did before. For the life of me I don't know why this is; nor can I find anything in settings to change.
Help!?
I haven't noticed this with Pandora but the NPR apparently stops playing about 15 minutes I turn the screen off.

Are you using goto lockscreen

Well it magically works fine now. For the life of me I could not tell you what caused it or what I did to cure it. I guess problem solved
I'm seeing a fairly consistent problem where I click to install an App, and it gets hung in "Waiting to install". Eventually it just stops trying.
Everything else on the pad works great. I've had no slowness issues, nothing at all wrong with the pad -- just randomly applications don't install. I've installed installing things from the web market because they always work there.
Yeah, that happens to me too. Its annoying to say the least.
Clearing the Market cache usually fixes it for me, at least for a while.
it does happen sometimes, just try a few times and it will eventually install..
Same here, sux yo
Yeah happens to me all the time. Super lame. I just try multiple times.
Ditto. Very annoying. I had hoped 3.1 would have fixed this, but it didn't.
same here .. sometimes i would get connection failure and to 'retry' or 'cancel'
i would turn off wifi and back on and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. rebooting will make it work again but then the issue would occur at times. not all the time though.
or i would disconnct from my wifi and turn on wifi tethering on my phone and have it connect to their and market would load fine again. =/
happens to me too. I usually just back out to the previous screen and try to install it again.
I'm having the same problem. And sometimes pressing a button causes a switch to the recent app (like alt+tab on windows).
Make sure that Google Talk is running in the background and you are logged in. For some reason the Market and Talk are related and killing Talk will cause the Market to hang.
Happens to me too, and trying to install multiple times (while it usually works eventually) will also frequently result in the app not showing in Market's "My Apps" section once installed, or showing but not being able to be uninstalled from Market.
The workaround I've found that so far works 100% of the time is to power the tablet off completely when an app hangs up installing, then restart the tablet and enter market again. The app will then immediately and quickly install without issues.

yea that usually works for me too but kinda annoying to have to keep rebooting just to get the market working. seems like the market will lose connection if the tablet is idle for a certain amount of time even though i have the wifi disconnect policy set to never. and even though market will have connection issue, i can browse the internet and everything perfectly fine when leaving hte tablet idle. hope this gets fix in 3.2!
I have been attempting to dl apps that I've been purchasing only to have to get a refund before my money is lost. Everytime I try to install the app it just says installing forever and never starts the download. The strange thing is this only happens with apps I purchase. Free apps download just fine.
Has this happened to anyone else if so has anyone fixed this?
I've had the exact same thing happen to me. I just waited a bit and eventually it started to download. Took mine maybe 20-30 minutes.
This has been happening to me as well. I hit buy, get an email about my purchase and then it hangs. If i hit back, the button still says "buy", after a couple minutes it changes to "install". It has happened to me a few times with free apps also.

try wlan on / off. i know this bug from my galaxy s.
This happens to me as well with free apps... I've found that whenever it happens to just exit out of the market & try again. Not the best solution, I know... but it's worked for me before. Gotta love those growing pains...
Could you guys please report this to the market? Happened to me and they're just like "hurr durr you're probably doing it wrong"
Anyway once it becomes a known issue I suppose we can expect them to fix it.
When I buy.
I tab [My Apps] in Android market. (I can see: Downloading then Instal).
But will not appear in notification bar (like reguler free application).
Is anyone else having problems running this app? For the last few days whenever I've tried to run it I get a blank screen. It will momentarily flash up the normal home page every now and again, and eventually it will crash
???
