[Q] Download Unsuccessful

I was able to download a bunch of apps today, but now I can't download anything. I keep getting "download unsuccessful" notices. I've tried restarting, turning flight mode on and off a couple times, but no luck. I can't download anything.
Anybody else experience this today? Any tips to fix it?
EDIT: After some intense googling, under Settings->Applications->Manage Applications, I cleared the data from Download Manager. That seems to work for the time being.

I'm having the exact same problem. When I go into Settings->Applications->Manage Applications however, Download Manager isn't there. I don't know how it would have gotten deleted but I'm thinking this may be the root of my issue. Anyone know where can download the stock Android 2.1 Download Manager?

Download manager is there (change filter in manage applications to all)
This apparently does not appear to be the problem...
Any other ideas. I only get this problem from mediafire and xda attachments

[q] driver problems?

I have updated everytime there was an update. I updated to the new rom 6.1.1 on 12/17/10. About a week later I tried to use the USB tether on my laptop and then on my desk top. I could not use it as the computer said the driver is not signed. Or code 10. I'm not a great PC user. How do I fix this or is there a fix for it? I use to use it on the previous rom 6.1.0 with out ever having a problem. I asked a question about this in a different thread and was basically ignored. Both of my computers use XP.

So nobody else has this problem? Or nobody can or wants to which is it cause I have done lots of searching and reading without finding any answer or clue. Thanks

So anyone else that uses USB tethering, please reply and let me know if yours works. If so is there a trick to it?

I've never had any issues. Try doing a full wipe (clear data/cache) and reinstalling the rom.

No issues on Liberated 2.2 with tethering. But still you can use 3rd party apps, like PdaNET.

I've done this three times with no success. Both of my computers still giving the error. (Code 10) driver not digitally signed. I noticed one thing thou that after wiping everything and reinstalling one of the times it would not reboot all the way. Stayed on the Cyanogen mod symbol with the stuff going around it. Every time it tried to load it just bounced back to this screen.

Just about to try PdaNet. In my phone info: Says Android 2.2.1, Kernel Version Is: [email protected] #69 Mod version CyanogenMod-6.1.1-Liberty.

PDA net works. I really wished though that I could use what was already installed on the phone. It worked all the time flawless in the previous ROM.

Just to make sure, don't have your phone plugged in when you are using recovery mode; for some reason if your phone is off and you plug it in via usb it enters an unreliable version of clockwork recovery. Instead choose boot into recovery from the power down options within the rom.

Did you try uninstalling the driver from your computer?
Also, start > control panel > system > hardware > driver signing
what setting do you have currently for driver signing?

My driver signing is set to ignore- Install the software anyway and dont ask for my approval. I dont really know how the settings in both computer would have changed. Unless when I installed a printer it automatically changed them. Cause besides the new ROM it is the only thing Ive changed. Also I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and deleting the tether and downloading and reinstalling with the same every time.

On top of that now my phone is rebooting it self. Today while checking cl. it just flashed to the begining cyanogen screen. What's going on? What should I do Now?

I tried to reinstall the ROM again, cleared everything. I noticed while Wiping Dalvik Cache it just jumped back to the previous screen. It didnt show that it was wiping or anything. I reinstalled and apparently everything was not wiped because when my phone Rebooted. It took me through the setup screens like a new phone but when the screen poped up. My wallpaper was still there. Can someone help me? Im really getting sick of trying to get this to work now It seems as I have more problems now.

Does the computer you're trying to use the tether on have wireless capabilities?

One of them does and the other does not. Both run xp though. Wiped again, wiping everything twice before flashing the ROM. I have not had any self reboot so far, and everything seems to be working ok. I have not got around to trying the usb tether yet though. Maybe a little later today.

[Q] download unsuccessful

This problem has been bugging me for a while and i wondered if anybody could help me.
A little while ago i rooted my x8 2.1 and installed xrecovery. I backed up everything with xrecovery. A problem later arose with my phone so i did an advanced restore of a the data on my phone with xrecovery and now when downloading anything from the market, i get a download unsuccessful error.
Ive tried clearing the cache or various apps, (market, google aps, browser etc.)
Nothing works, i would like to avoid a factory restore if i can.
Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

From my point of view , it has norhing to do with the restore and the other...
Check some other thinks...
-Try downloading from an other network to be sure that its your phone's problem.
-Check your phone and sd card free space...(no space to download)
-Check if you have the latest version of the market.

Thanks, ill check those later and get back to you, but im sure it cant be the network because it happens when im connected to wifi aswell

if ur problem is.. market just "starting downloading " so.. do this..
dont know wats wrong,, but i try to reinstall the market,,
download it from here use root explorer to delete the original, and replace with this,, try restating your phone after done... and try again..
its work on me..

Thanks, if that doesnt work il get back to you

It didnt work!
when ever i click an app to download, it waits for about 20 seconds then on the notification bar it pops up with Download unsuccessful

Aussie Roadhound Stock ROM

TL/DR: I need a copy of the stock aussie roadhound firmware.
I've been using CM7 unofficial and CWM 5.0.2.6 recovery for a while on my plain u8800. The other day, the phone randomly shut it self down (wasn't plugged in).
It was stuck in a boot loop, and the only thing that would get it out was clearing cache and resetting permissions.
When the phone restarted I was presented with the setup guide again. While going through the guide, a lot of apps I had installed previously (titanium backup ect) were force closing. Although I was connected to the internet I couldn't download or sync my google account.
I skipped the setup guide, most applications didn't work, and I opened terminal. Using wifi I could ping googles dns servers by IP (8.8.8.8). I tried an nslookup using that dns however, and it failed.
I tried upgrading to the latest CM7, and since then I've had a question mark over my battery, and now only wifi works (3g/mobile worked at the start, now I can't even make phone calls.)
I'm hoping to try a stock firmware one last time, and if that fails, at least I'll be able to return my phone in that state. Unfortunately, none of the links online seem to be working.
Any Ideas/Links?

[HELP] i think i've encountered a new bug.

hello, i have a new problem found few days ago and been trying to fix it but to no avail.
here is how it started.
i tried to install an app called fsecure vpn network from google play. then the phone when into a bootloop. then i did a clean wipe (reset, wipe cache and dalvik from recovery) but somehow my files were not gone. that is some kinda miracle i have no idea how it happened.
since then my phone have issue whenever i installed mihome:
-. google play services, trebuchet, package installer, and some other has stopped.
-. cannot open apps list in settings when mihome is present. the settings just stopped and crashed.
-. if i try to open the mihome, the phone goes reboot.
-. even uninstalling mihome from application list is not working, the package installer stopped. have to uninstall from google play.
-. i tried to make a bluetooth printer app, but when i put the app-debug.apk into my phone. file manager would crash whenever it tried to read the file. even by just scrolling down. example: file manager work fine if the file is not copied inside (meaning we can scroll around and not crash). but once the file is copied in then the file manager will work if we dont scroll down to find the file, but when we scrolled down to find the file then the app crash.
things i've tried:
-. clean wipe then reflashing rom and gapps.
-. manually update google play store, download google package installer and reinstall it.
-. tried to download google play services apk but was unable to install it.
-. tried the idea of clearing cache of google play service but still no luck (force stop was disabled anyway so i cant try that)
i have no idea how this all happen just because i tried to install that fsecure app. its not even fully installed yet. it was just starting to install after download then this hell happened.
im desperate for some help as i've tried for 3 days in fixing it but to no luck. any helps would be very appreciated.
thanks and regards,
hendry

Hello,
Did you try to reinstall Stock ROM ?
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-grand2/SM-G7102/
It happened to me that sometimes, apps or rom just run into a bug and maybe it corrupt the firmware but after a Stock ROM flash (via Odin) + custom recovery (via Odin) to wipe Cache + Data, everything was fix.

Hai, could u possible post me a tutorial on how to do those thing via odin? Coz i usually only do it via cwm. Thanks

Did you try to flash a recovery only ?
Maybe your firmware/system is not corrupted and then you could just reflash a clean rom ?
In Odin, Select AP and load your recovery.tar

I am having the very same issue. The difference is that it's happening with Spotify, Xposed and Relay for Reddit. So yeah it's been much worse for me. I will try to flash stock rom + reinstall another recovery and see if it fixes. By the way, I got a couple of questions:
1 - Does the country that I select when downloading the stock ROM matters?
2 - Which Recovery can you guys recommend? There's a bunch here but not sure if all them are worthy

Okay so I flashed an Indian stock ROM (I'm not indian nor live in the country), then I wiped all data, so I could boot. This is the default procedure to revert back to a Stock ROM.
After that, I noticed the Wifi wasn't working, probably due to the Stock rom I've downloaded. Anyway, I installed a custom Recovery (even an updated version of what I used before, then I reinstalled Ressurection Remix, and tried again.
....It didn't work. Relay for Reddit crashes everything, Spotify puts my phone into a bootloot. Same with Xposed. I have no idea what to do anymore. Someone, please help. I really can't afford to buy another phone right now and I really need those apps. Expecially Spotify.

Okay, so I guess there won't be any need for that. I've redownloaded the stock ROM, but this time, I checked my phone Serial Number so I could download the right stock ROM for my phone. Now everything seems to be working again. Spotify and Relay installed without any issue. I will now try to reflash recovery and then another ROM and see if the problem persists.
For those who don't know how to check your Serial number, it's right above your android version, at the "About phone" section on Settings.
I still need advice on which Recovery I should use.
Anyway, thank you guys. I probably would't be able to solve this without your help.
UPDATE: I've installed TWRP 3.1.0.0, and also rooted the phone using it. Still on stock ROM. Everything seems to be still working without problems. I think I'll stick with it for now. Maybe later I'll try to lash a Custom ROM and see if it still works.

Hi,
I'm glad you fixed you're problem. Sticking on Stock ROM is the best thing you can do if you need your phone as every functionnality is checked and working.
I personnaly use TWRP as recovery, its good you got usb, root and everything you need to backup/restore your phone + reset your phone.
