2.3.3 Can't download any market apps

Hi everyone,
I have successfully upgraded my NS OTA to 2.3.3, but now I can't download any apps? or do any updates. I am connect via wifi and can access the web in other apps.
I have done a hard reset/wipe and still I can't do it, it just always comes back with "download unsuccessful".
Please can anyone help?

This is wierd I am getting the same thing happening when I sign into My galaxy S, I can't download any apps? is the Android market likely to be down? or is there something I need to do to my account?

Thanks for the reply, I tried this but it was still the same, and when I connect my google account to my Galaxy S it does the same thing, this is over wifi or 3g, is there any chance that the google servers are down or something?

Looks like I am not the only one then:

Did you do the update manually? Or from Google? I haven't received the update yet.

I've been on 2.3.3 for a few days now but I got tired of it this morning so I decided to go back to CyanogenMod but I had this issue. Nothing would download at all. It was very, very frustrating. I ended up going back to 2.3.3 stock and its working fine again. I'm really not sure what the hell was going on.

Will do! Thanks!

It was an over the air update. But I had to restore first before it would see it. I think there was a problem with the Google servers last night, all seems OK now.

I'm still waiting to get the 2.3.3 update on my phone. Do I have to restore my phone? Its taking a while to get to mine.

@Dax05: Don't wait for the OTA. Just download it from xda (make sure you download the right file for you), and follow the instructions. It's really easy. I did it in 5 minutes. It's been a week now and everything runs smoothly!

I'll look into it 'cause if I'm not mistaken I saw the one for GRH78 & I have the GRH78C build. It wasn't working due to that.

4.1.2 >>> 4.2 unable to update

Okey so yesterday I couldn't wait anymore and wanted to update my Nexus 7 to 4.2 but couldn't.
After restarting it did initiate the update but right after it gave me a red triangle with a (!)
And now I can't see any updates anymore. I yet I'm on 4.1.2 still
Dang it..

Download the 4.2 factory images from google and flash via fastboot.

Consider yourself lucky and stay with 4.1.2

I have the same problem as well. When I first tried to get the update, the Android had a red ! And failed the update. Now, it says no update available....
I'm not sure if I should wait until a more stable version is out, however.

Aren't there enough 4.2 bashing threads that you feel the need to take this one off-topic?

Have you modified, frozen, or deleted any of the stock system files? The update checks for approximately 200 files and if any aren't stock, will fail. Your best bet, as someone else said, is going to be to fastboot flashing the stock image. Be forewarned that you'd be essentially starting from scratch as it would wipe your tablet, but I'd personally find that preferable since you'd be circumventing some of the issues that are irking the most vocal of 4.2's critics.

I actually just purchased the tablet, and out of the box the first thing I tried to do was update, and it failed.
I'm not very knowlegable about flashing the factory image myself, but I've heard about updating using a "toolkit"? Is this easier?

Yup, easier. But using a command line and the android SDK/fastboot isn't all that hard... maybe your issue is just the universes way of saying you should go learn a new trick. :cyclops:
However I doubt the universe will waste any energy punishing you if you choose to go the easy route. Plus, you can always read the thorough directions for both routes and make an educated decision before you get your hands even the least bit dirty.

Why not, it's a safe operation.
If you're completely stock, and update fails, either try again (and again, and again), or send it to repair (slowest). Or fastboot (fastest).

well, in that case, id rather root it and flash a custom rom, and thats probably what i am gonna end up doing... ill see, thanks for the answer

Stupid 4.3 ota failed!

My N10 is rooted but with a stock ROM. Earlier on it said that there was an update (4.3) and it downloaded it, re booted and then came up with an error saying 'no command' while displaying the small pic of the Android. It sat there for 10 mins and then eventually booted back into the OS. When I checked the version, it was back to 4.2.2.
Now when I check for an update, it says that there's no update available.
What do I do?

Are you on stock recovery? Barring that, clear Google Framework data and try again maybe?

That message is okay. Nothing is wrong with your tablet, other than the fact that the update didn't take. Do as the above poster said, or manually install the OTA.

Why not try to check again for the OTA? No worries dude... That's not an unusual thing to happen . Also you can try doing what the other two said ,)

Thanks guys. I cleared Google Framework Data and the download started again and failed again. This time, all it said was "error"!
I really don't want to zero the tablet again and lose all my data by doing the update manually. Is there any way to avoid that?
Also is there anything great about 4.3 that makes the update worth doing?

Its probably because your tablet is rooted. Try unrooting and then doing the update.

Yeah, I thought that was it too so I unrooted and tried again. It's still the same.
I really don't want to do a factory reset and manually update the bloody thing - I'll lose all my stuff!
Called Google support and sent them pictures of the Android screen (they asked for them!) and apparently they're investigating...

Yeah maybe you just need to wait a little more so you won't be like me. I just bricked mine today trying to do a factory reset .

You can manually update without performing a factory reset by just pushing boot and system, although you need to know what can go wrong before you try.

Same issue, rooted and custom recovery.
But if they are investigation, maybe I won't remove the custom recovery, too much work.

I got the 'error' screen too. pressed power and volume and it told me that build.prop failed the file check, pulled an fresh copy out of the old factory image, copied it to my n10 and tried the OTA again. All went ok, now on 4.3

Same error!!
Already did a factory reset and still have the error

Same problem here. Rooted on stock. Keep going to Recovery, then errors when trying to apply the 'untrusted' update, as it states.

Same problem here....rooted with stock recovery, tried three times clearing the data from Google framework but no luck so far...

The latest I used that worked well was the one Reverepats repacked "Reverpats-TWRP-Sprint-2.6.3.1.zip".
However the one I KNOW works without issues (for me) - installing, wiping, creating AND restoring backups, accessing USB storage etc. is "TWRP-Recovery-jfltespr-2.5.0.2.zip"
There are some AOSP ROMs that recommend using CWM and not TWRP - so keep that in mind. Always try and follow the OP's suggestions.

+1. 2.5.0.2 is a solid one. I used several of the newer ones, and they worked, but not without quirks. Went back to 2.5.0.2 and all is good.
Welcome back!

2.5.0.2 for me. I can't flash aosp RMs with it (not sure if it a twrp/cwm thing or not) but absolutely no issues at all. Backups, sdcard, touchscreen all work great. I'm leaving well-enough alone!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda premium

definitely recommend twrp 2.5.0.2, was the only recovery I used til I switched to CWM.

thanks fellaz!! 2.5.0.2 it is!!

Technically not 'repacked' I guess but Reverepats was cool enough to make the zip for some and shared it for all.

Installing OctOS with CWM

Has anyone been able to successfully flash OctOS with CWM? I know in the thread they say they only support TWRP but I would really prefer not to switch to that recovery if possible. I've tried 4 seperate times now and every time it doesn't even make it to the boot animation, it just hangs at the galaxy s4 screen and I eventually have to reboot and restore. And yes, I give it enough time, I let it sit on that screen for about 20 mins before I reboot and try again.

I have flashed OctOS numerous times with CWM. what version of OctOS? I am using 10/22 currently because of issues with the 10/31. Did you check the MD5 hash? Might be a bad download. I hope you can get it running. You will not be disappointed, it really is the best AOSP going right now. Good luck!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Interesting, I was trying the 10/31 build, I'll go dl the 10/22 build now and give it a shot. And yes, I checked the md5's and they were correct, that was one of the first things I did. Thanks for the suggestion, I hope it works, really wanna check out this ROM.
edit: Also, what cwm are you using? Touch or regular?

I was using regular 6.0.3.0 I think. I am trying TWRP right now since I took the plunge to MJA. I am thinking about going back to CWM probably the touch version. It really turned me off to TWRP when the first backup I made with it failed to restore. I have never had backup/restore issues with CWM.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Yea that's why I don't really wanna use TWRP if I don't have too, I've heard of people having issues with it and I've never had problems with CWM, been using it for a long time now. I'm also thinking about upgrading to CWM Touch, but for now, the dl just finished so I'm gonna try flashing the 10/22 version. Here goes nothing!
