[Q] Apps not 'connecting' to the net. ?? - Acer Iconia A500

Running stock 3.2, rooted using timmydeans method (chrishohls version)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307539&highlight=app+connect&page=3
- Browsers (Stock, Firefox & Dolphin HD) all work fine, as does email (K-9 mail).
- I can browse the market but cannot download / install apps nor can I access 'my apps'
-Maps wont load in GMaps along with other apps that use gmaps (marine traffic, flightradar)
-Other apps that need an internet connection (openfeint, teevoid, AdAway etc) wont connect, though interestingly, in app ads still load.
This problem started 3 days ago. I have the same apps running on my mobile and they run fine (using the same wifi AP).
I have no backup installed, so before I try a factory reset, any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Reload your tablet with V3 which has all the latest patches from ACER in it.
I just tested all the applications you mentioned and they run without any issues.
TD

Just rooted last night with v3 and so far so good on those apps as well. I get a few force closes but not sure if they are related. Thanks timmyDean and even more so for the wargames throwback.

Thanks for the reply td.
I rooted my device back on 22 Oct and havent 'touched' it since. It has worked perfect up till 3 days ago.
If no other fix comes to light, yes I will try V3 (after trying a factory restore of course)

What's V3? Thanks.

[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

Do a reflash, and also if possible try to format both your internal and external sd card as well. Hope this works.

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.

[Q] Getting full Marketplace and Framework Issues

I have tnt lite running on my tablet, and went through the full instructions on the guide on this forum of installing it and the marketplace and flash fixes. However I never got the full marketplace on my tablet (no angry birds, lots of apps missing). I also would often get an error every so often about the Google Framework Services having and error, and recently my tablet would reboot often while i was browsing. Then flash started having issues of not loading sometimes, etc. So what I did was I redownloaded titanium backup, installed it, force closed Google Framework Services and Market, went into titanium and wiped data for Google Framework Services and Market and then tried to open the market and got the error. I then rebooted the device and I tried to access market. At first it wasnt opening so i rebooted again and then it started working, however it still isnt the full marketplace. Also randomly the Google Framework Services error came up again. How can I get the full marketplace working? Would you recommend that I backup this rom and just reflash with the 2.2.1 tnt and start over again? I dont have much data on it and can start from scratch easily.
Ok so I have gotten rid of the Framework error and stability issues. I did a factory reset which seemed to have cured a lot of those issues. However I still dont have the full andriod market. I followed the steps again but I keep getting a limited version of the market with barely any apps. Is there something else I need to do to get this working better? I have heard of people getting the full market with angry birds, etc on it, so I know it can be done..
Some of the roms, sepcifically the Vega one, I wasnt able to get the market to work on correctly. I finally did by doing a factory reset, installing Cyanogen mod, Cyanogen gapp pack, and than flashing the Vega one over it without a reset.. and then the usual market fix. And it finally worked. There has to be a better more reliable way though. (From my understanding, it should work out of the box with Vega since it uses the release key instead of the test key in build.prop. But it does. )
I don't think the "fix" has given *anyone* completely full market, has it?
I've done the fix on TNT Lite, newest release, and newest VEGAN and I am still missing apps here and there.

I seemingly have access to the full market. I applied the fix referenced on the TNT tutorial page:
Setting / Applications / Manage Applications / Running / "Clear cache"; then "Force stop"
Then go up to Google Services Framework and "Force stop"
Open Titanium Backup; click on "Backup/Restore" and scroll to Google Services Framework 2.2.1 - and "Wipe data"
Go back to Home and launch Market. You should receive an error message (if not, repeat steps above).
Reboot and you should be good to go.
I also installed the latest update to the market (via update.zip) referenced here

Correct, to the best of my knowledge, even with a good build fingerprint in build.prop (now pre-done for you in Vegan ROM) and after applying Market Fix, we still seem to be lacking a few apps here and there from Market. Perhaps 2-5% of the apps in Market are still missing. Off the top of my head, Pocket Legends, Tank Hero, one of the MAME ports are known to be still missing. Some other minor apps.
CyanogenMod is the only ROM that apparently doesn't have this issue, though I haven't tried it to verify that for myself.

I've yet to notice any problems. No FC's at least
Edit: Just installed an app, uninstalled it, and updated another one. Done a bunch of browsing. No problems found so far. Mine updated from 3.1.6 in case that matters.
Won't install for me, says package with same signature already installed. Tried uninstalling market but won't let me do that either.
I tried it, wouldn't update an app that was already installed, restored 3.1.5 and it worked right off. May try it again later...
Also working fine for me. Had to push it to my folder. Can do it using es file explorer
i just used root explorer, renamed to Vending.apk, deleted old vending, put this in /system/app then clicked and installed it,
havent run into a single FC or problem.
I just installed this. It went well and I didn't have to do anything special. Looks good so far, no fc's or any issues downloading/updating my apps. Running almost stock 3.2 by ezterry.
Thanks for the headsup!
It looks nice , much better then 3.2 market but on HC 3.2 it is laggy as hell and I tried it in my new rom and installes ok.
But , but , but , laggy and conflict with finsky.apk that is working together with default a500 market 1.0.28.
The 3.3.11market doesn't update my apps like it should and the only thing you can do is delete the finsky.apk to get rid of those conflicts , google maps don't update , superuser don't update.
So I stay with 1.028 market , better layout for me and no update problems.
Thank you for this! Works perfect.

I tried to install this and it went fine..but after installing it several of my games started to FC on me. Anybody have a clue why? Is it the cache that does it? Can I wipe the cache with CWM without erasing game data?
It stopped when I installed the original marked .apk again.
I've been running this release since I saw it on Engadget. It works but it definitely has it's glitches if you just install the apk in my case. (I don't have or want root).
First of all, the app descriptions don't show up. You see an icon and the 2 or 3 buttons (open, update, uninstall or open, uninstall).
Secondly, there are 2 market app icons now. The market that is originally on the A500, v. 1.0.28 or something like that and the new one.
I'm keeping the new one because I like the auto update setting as well as not having constant notifications for updates. But just keep this in mind IF you are simply going to install by running the apk. I've had absolutely no force closes and for me there' no market lag as others have stated.

Specific app suddenly FC - clueless

Hi all,
OK so before I start let me convince you that I have put in a fair bit of effort and done some research before I post this. I have been working to solve this for two night now to no avail.
I have been playing Gameloft's Modern Combat 2 for a few weeks now on my TF, it runs great and I love it. Yes I am using the proper APK and yes I know it is not officially supported on the TF but if it was I would be the first to buy this game.
As I said it has been running fine until a few days ago. Suddenly when I launched the app, it FC.
In between playing the game I have been updating and wiping and flashing my ROM (primarily PRIME rom) with every update that came out in the past weeks/months. Never did I have any problem. When I did a full wipe, I just reinstalled the proper APK and let the data download over wifi.
What I have tried now:
- Removed the app, removed the data, reboot and reinstalled.
- Replaced the data folder from a buddy of mine where the game runs
- Superwiped, reinstalled Prime rom with latest updates and installed the apk and downloaded data
- Superwiped, reinstalled Prime rom with latest updates and installed the apk and copied working data folder
- Superwiped, reinstalled Krakd rom with latest updates and installed the apk and copied working data folder
Whatever I do, it keeps FC. I am 100% positive I have the correct apk for Tegra 2.
It leaves me clueless as to why it keeps FC instantly when I open the app, while I have no problem with any other app. Nova 2 HD and other Gameloft games are working fine.
If anyone has any suggestion what to try next I would be happy to hear.
When you use the term "proper" you bought this game? and took the apk and loaded on on the Transformer and the latest new rom now is causing it to crash ?

Some Apps crashes directly after start. What to do?

Hello,
I try since some weeks to setup my P9Lite VNS-L31. I upgraded the stock build B150 to different ROMs, like B201, MedroM Custom ROM v2 and V3 and currently B160. I've also rooted the phone and installed xposed with xprivacy - the most important apps for my device.
However, everything works fine. Everything? Not exactly. Some apps are terminated instantly after they was started. A (not fully complete) list of these crashing apps:
- Google Play Store (so it's not possible to create accounts)
- DB Navigator
- Lightning Browser
- xPrivacy (Opening via notification after installed/updated apps are possible!)
- And some games...
What I alread tried:
- Re-install all of ROMs above, with and without root, with and without xposed.
- Dirty ROM upgrades and full wiping in all directions.
- Delete user data and app data
- Delete and reinstall apps
- Clean and dirty reinstall apps in other versions.
Nothing helps... I'm confused about that. I can't find any reason about that and also I don't found any solutions for that. So can you help me, please?
Many thanks in advance.
Best wishes
Dan
