A few days ago I successfully rooted my phone to s-off status. Since then I have installed ROMmanager and ClockworkMod.
For the past 2 days, I've been having Market download issues where some apps begin and appear to complete downloading, but don't actually install. I've tried clearing the download manager and restarting, but that didn't work.
Anyone else seeing this?
Mine just recently today started force closing after every app I clicked update on. I would restart it, work fine then click on an app to update then FC. Thing is, the application continues to update normally and works fine. Its just the market is screwy or something...
Try clearing the data for market... Then reboot. I haven't had the issue with my 4g, but I did on my vibrant and that was the solution.
Worth a shot.

Thanks, unfortunately that didn't work. I even went back to a nandroid backup from 3 days ago...but androidcentral.com just sent out a tweet asking if anyone else has been having Market issues. Maybe it's not just me then?

Yeah, I am having issues. Mine will start to download, then it will just stop. Same with updates, I think it is a Market issue. Not a phone issue.
But mine just started tonight.
Edit: Woah, it works now.. Looks like my issue is gone, check on your side.
Edit 2: Stopped working again!
Edit 3: Looks like apps will only install when I hit "Automatic updates"
Edit 4: Scratch "Edit 3" seems to only work sometimes.. Looks like a market issue still, and not phone.
okay thought it was just my phone, i am having the same issue where it will start but then just disappear

Wow, you really took my brain for a ride. I think I need a vacation! ... I hate how these issues can come out of the blue because they're all server-side. I've had to swap my phone out several times before I got one without dust under the screent, etc. On top of this, my neighborhood has downed towers so the network is a bit spotty. All this started the day after I received my latest MT4G. This is the stuff heart attacks are made from!
If you want a quick fix go to settings> applications> market and hit "uninstall updates"

That works once, but then it updates market again
And I don't want to delete marketupdater.apk
Update: It is deff a Market issue, my Vibrant is doing the same thing. And others in the Vibrant section reported it.

Lol... the issue probably won't last long but you could always download droidwall to block network access to market updater.

Lol IDK, last time there was a Market issue.. Wow
It lasted about 15 hours. I hated it
But hmm. It seems to be working now. I will try to download a few more apps to confirm.
Yeah, it is working now.
I was just able to download a few apps consecutively, individually (not via update all), and they all worked. Perhaps issue is now resolved?

I had the same problem. I went to. Settings > Applications > Fast Boot and unchecked that. Since then I haven't had a problem with the market on my phone.

Looks like the issue is back :/
I've had this problem for months on all sorts of ROMs but never put much thought into it.
Is there a fix? I NEVER know if updates are available until I hit up the market.

Go to market, menu button>settings>notify me
I should have mentioned that I had that option selected. I've also tried clearing the cache, etc, with no luck.

I think the Market just sucks at notifying you. Its never been very good at notifying on my G1, mytouch slide, or the Vibrant, so its gotta be the Market.
I thought so too, but notifications work perfectly on my rooted Nook.

Go to menu> settings > applications > manage applications> market. Here click on clear data. Nyu may have a problem with broken links of ur apps. If that's the problem, above steps should solve it.

I've tried that before with no luck. What's really weird is that my market cache is always 0.0kb in size as well.
I wonder if I have an app or something that is blocking it. Right before I installed Bionix 1.3 I formatted my internal sd (just because I had never done so) and I received market notifications then and thought that maybe it was just clutter. But the issue is back. Super weird.

I also don't receive update notifications until I open my market. I just let programs update automatically, and check it every once in a while for manual updates due to apps requesting new permissions.

I think its a market issue. Its hit or miss for me. Sometimes I get them and sometimes I dont.
I don't know if this is a 2.2 issue or not but ever since i updated, my market has been acting iffy...along with a few other samsung widgets. I don't know if it's a server issue or something with 2.2 on our phones but i know a few people that started having that problem as soon as they updated to 2.2.
Same market issue here, hardly ever get notifications on updates. However whenever I open market all the notifications come up
I'm with everyone else, I don't think I've ever gotten notifications before. My gf's phone doesn't get hers either and shes using a MyTouch Slide. I do get notifications right after I close the Market, but never before.
I think its purely a market issue.

It worked perfectly on android 1.1 with the G1 back then, but since 1.5 its been hit or miss .... guess its been over looked by the OEM, when putting together roms for their devices ... Or it can just be an issue with google's servers .. I just made it a habit to check every day for updates ..
Mine works it seems to work every 3-4 days on notifying me. But, it hangs in the download so I end up doing manual update.
This method go to Market> type find updates or update apps then it seems to find them
The auto update is kinda flaky and unreliable
What's weird about it, at least to me, is that it works perfect on my rooted nook and with the honeycomb demo for my nook. At least I'm not the only SGS owner with issues.

Wait... you think this is a bug/bad thing?
OMG I'd be thrilled to never receive market update notifications, instead, I have to manually kill the service every reboot (even with "do not notify me" set) and often uninstall unwanted updates from my themed apps in /system/app until I have time to theme them.
Royal pain, I'd love to never have updates, lol.
Cheers, =)

Has anyone else started getting Facebook push notifications??? I haven't updated the Facebook app since a week or two ago, but as of last night I started getting pushes.
Anyone else?
I did as well and mine hasn't been updated either.
i haven't gotten any except for a random chat message that i got while i was still online on my computer.
I did as well. Either EC05 fixed it or Facebook tweaked something on their end. I did a double take when one popped up lol

Wasn't EC05 since I am still on EB13.
I was using Flow to get my notifications but last night I updated to EC05 and all of a sudden my fb app notifications started pushing again. Maybe they finally got their act together.

I wonder if sprint had them turn off the feature because of dk28 being leaked (remember it worked at first) and now that there is an official non-pulled version of Froyo (since only 2.2+ supports push notifications) they turned it back on... just a thought.

Are you expecting it to notify you of Likes? It won't.
Otherwise, there's nothing to set AFAIK. I did turn off the update interval though.

Its not supported yet which is a joke. You only get notified of messages and event invites.
I wasn't getting the facebook push and neither was my husband, but after updating to E05 we are now getting the push notifications. We also had an update from facebook so I am not sure which enabled the push again.

A downgrade indeed... in terms of features. You can't view the permissions of the app before downloading now, updates don't seem to show up on top. There is a possibility that I might have missed those features since I'm new to this.
On the plus side, it's super fast now and there are more useful categories. I hope they bring back the old features if they've been removed.

I'll need to check that out. Thanks!
But how about the updates? I know there's an app that has an update because I didn't grab it yet. Lo and behold, the app does have an update button in the app details BUT it doesn't show up on top of the list. Maybe I'll try doing stuff like rebooting my phone.
Oh, and one more thing. There's no longer the auto-update check mark like before. Is it really missing or am I just missing it?

My two updates are at the very top and seperated. And of course you can see permissions. Click download and a seperate page comes up to confirm and shows permissions and more clearly I might add.
Also its only showing the updates of apps actually downloaded from the market. I too had two that weren't showing but they did in fact have updates. The reason is those two were backups from like November and I don't remember if I got them from the market or here.

All my applications that needs to be updated are on top also there's still an option for automatic updates.
This is really a good update. I just need a wifi at my house so I can now rent movies.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
So it turns out that all of the features that appeared missing (uninstall, auto-update, permissions section) were mostly caused by my apps losing their market links.. and being too quick to judge for the permissions one. After rebooting, the list of all my installed apps disappeared where they were in the "not installed" section before. So I think I'll have to find a way to restore them. It's either with market doctor in Titanium and/or clearing the market data, right?
I hear rooted users can not rent movies though the new market. Is this true?

Yup, rooted phones can't watch movies. I don't see them removing that policy because of piracy issues.
But it really sucks to be this way, maybe they should do what amazon is doing? Making sure that the movies will only work on the account that downloaded it?

Thanks EB for the link. working perfectly on SimplyHoney 3.9.1.
tried the market apk on the latest cm7 nightly, but when i try to open it i get the message "you must add an account to the device to continue. Do you want to add one now?" so i choose yes but nothing happens i logged in to google thru the browser but no luck there either any suggestions??
After spending about 15 min with this, I have to say that this market is a nice improvement. The issues I encountered were all temporary (missing update button, security permissions lists before download, etc). Sucks that they decided to stop rooted users from video rentals. I can see why, but in the end someone will figure out how to bypass that.
If anyone has issues listing their installed apps in My Apps my solution was to use titanium backup to wipe the data of the market app clean + using the market doctor. I also had two accounts in accounts and sync and had to get rid of the secondary one to get to load up my default sync data.

You have to accounts and sync in the settings and add an account. Quite weird that you can't do it through the actual market. I never had an issue doing that in youtube!
Seems like every other day I get a notification that there are 2 updates for my apps on the market. If I click that notification, or go there manually from my apps list, everything is already up to date.
Here's the fun part - it does this both on my epic and xoom, so it seems more account related than device related.
What can I to do ferret out this weird market issue?
