[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 !

Existing adroid market app and android 2.2
Will the existing android market apps work with new froyo (android 2.2) after it's release?

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

1) When I open market 1st time - it will ask for my google account then close down
2) After that - when i open market again - it will show title bar "Android Market Terms of Service " with blank white screen
3) Then it start to blinks every 5 seconds but keep showing white screen and title bar <like the screen wiping from left to right>
>>> so I can't open market !!!
++ New problem found ++
I also cannot use mobile browser
-> when I try to open "Internet" the browser start to load then close immediately
PS. I try to do factory reset/ wipe cache .. but still not working!!

Looks like I may need to re-flash .. - -"

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

this happen again after I reflash .. root and do lag fixed ... so I will now go back to JM2

Market Problems? (13/08/10)
Okay so today I tried downloading some applications from the market but to no avail!
It says starting download but goes no furthur, I've factory reset the phone but still not working.
Anyone else experience this or any solutions to fix it?

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] Android 2.1 Browser crash when trying to open bookmarks

I use a Defy with T-Mobile US Android 2.1. Everything worked fine until I started having problems with the stock browser. It starts fine, opens my home page. But when I select Bookmarks from the menu, I get a FC message "The application Browser (process.com.android.browser) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
If I install Skyfire, I can view my bookmarks, so I guess the Bookmarks file is not corrupt.
Any ideas?

Please help, anyone? Is it file permissions problem? Is the Browser apk corrupt? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Finally found a solution. Using ADB shell, navigated to /data/data/com.android.browser and deleted all the files in that folder. All my bookmarks are gone, but at least now I can create new ones and access them.

I had the same problem.
I used a program to manage favorites, and I found one with a symbol.
I changed the name using only letters, and now everything works again.

flash android 2.2 it is better than 2.1

On March 23rd, 2013, my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 began to act differently. In a few days, most of the apps would not open. I would get an error message: "The application ________ (process com.android._______) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Force Close" This "crash" happened with the Browser, email, Kindle apps. I did the factory reset. Did not help. I then did the root process: Got the download target screen, opened OOdin3, selected PDA, chose Quens_P100_EF17_Rooted_PDA and it successfully "passed". It did not solve the problem. I assume I must have a corrupted OS, but that is just an educated guess.
Anyone out there got a solution? Thanks. John

[Q] Swiss cheese ee03 Camera

Has anybody with this rom flashed had any troubles with the camera fc'ing when trying to take a picture? For the longest time now whenever i try to take a picture it would fc and tell me the process com.sec.android.app.camera has stopped unexpectedly. Could someone with a working camera send me their apk from the /system/app folder to test if that would fix my issue?

go under the camera settings and under the wrench icon tab their is an option on page 2 i think to update camera firmware... select it... then select check firmware then select update... then run the samsung apps store app then it should say if their is an update to the camera. if shut down phone and turn back on and rerun the samsung app store...

i tried that already, downloaded the samsung app and re-ran it, says error service unavailable (error code 4002) when it searches for the firmwarer update edit: tried fixing permissions under cwm and would no-ciq play any role in not being able to get the update?

i would go into clock works mod and then reset the phone and do under advanced i think and clear delvik cache. I would also not use a program like Titanium Backup as you could be restoreing files that are causing the issue. The only restore i do is with my backup and text messages only. I then let the market place update all programs then after that is done I then install from the market my programs... I also recommend that you delete everything on the sd card other then your music and dcmia folder (camera saved pics).... then reset the device.... and then after reflashing then rom then do the no icq then do the fm radio gtalk thing then turn it off and use odin to flash the modem...

i used the ee03 tar to flash the rom to my phone so everything was already done including the modem. i tried clearing the cache and fixing permissions with no luck. ill give resetting the phone a try and see how well that will work for me. also before doing that, do you think you could send me a copy of your camera apk from the system app folder to see if that would work for me?

what you suggested isnt working :-\. i did factory reset, cache and dalvik 3x and and tried doing the firmware update and still no luck. i also formatted the sd card and removed all the extra stuff off of it

[Q] Xoom WiFi Root 3.2 Post Install issue

OK I performed the install per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1165998 and have read every single post as of about 5 minutes prior to writing this.
Everything went perfectly fine. Installing over a stock 3.1, except for rooting. I'm not completely new to this... not a master either. I've rooted my Atrix with every official update, and rooted my dad's Verizon Incredible, I think that's the name, and installed Cyanogenmod 7.
MY problem is I can't open any "links." In either gmail or e-mail clicking on a good URL and get it to open in the stock browser, Opera or Firefox (it prompted me before the update). The screen just dims and nothing. I tap the screen and the screen "undims." This also happens when I download a pdf in Firefox and try to open it. If I use Astaro File manager I can open the pdf with out any issues. It appears to be related to the browsers only so far.
I've already performed a restore missing apps and system data with Titanium Backup Root.
Do I need to clean Dalvik cache? Do a factory wipe? Hopefully something less drastic...
Any help or pointer to resources I missed are appreciated.
P.S. I did try posting on the developer thread, and I can't post. Since I'm not experienced enough to be of much help and I prefer researching and learning without asking questions previously asked and answered.

Checked Defaults...
I just tried settings--->applications--->manage applications---->pick your app and clear defaults? No default set for the Browser, Firefox, Gmail or Opera.

CWM Cache Partition Wipe
Sorry for multiple posts I'm trying to troubleshoot my problem...
The problem still exists after clearing the cache partition with CWM.

Removed Opera
No change except I've noticed it is faster since I cleared the cache.

Removed Firefox
Now the builtin browser works!

Reinstalled Opera
Initially the same issue... and then the option to select between the Browser or Opera!
Second try the selection box appeared quickly!
Restored Opera data via Titanium Backup and all still appeared well.
Rebooted same issue... Uninstalled and reinstalled again. No change.
Rebooting...

Redo
Uninstalled Opera.
Used CWM to clear the cache partition.
Reinstall Opera.
Reinstall Firefox.
And I'll post this before my session times out. I hop this may help someone else someday.

You must have missed a post on this topic --default app picker--and someone's solution. I think I saw it in the development section. The solution was to make sure that auto rotate was set to on, and then make the screen redraw the grayed out app default picker screen by rotating the Xoom. They said to do it for each app that was causing a problem. Sounds crazy, but it seemed to work. Look for the post, or just try it. It can't hurt.

Working... Why
Working now and survived a reboot without breaking.
I haven't restored any data. :-(
Anyone know why or where I can look to try and figure out why. How about if I can recover some of the application data selectively?

Good news that works great.
Better news I learned a few new things.
A good day if I do say so myself.
P.S. Note to self App Picker not file associations for Android

ASOP browser question

I searched and could not find a direct answer.... I am rooted with stock browser. I am updated to 4.3 and recently installed ASOP browser and flash. The browser freezes on websites with flash content and the android flash test page doesn't load... Is there any way to get flash to work with this browser?
thanks

Hi, flyers27...
I've never been able to get Adobe Flash Player working in the AOSP browser under Jellybean 4.3. There's actually a whole thread devoted to this issue here. The thread title declares the problem to be solved... it isn't. The OP mentions that by performing a full factory flash back to stock Jellybean 4.3, the problem should be resolved. Well, I did that (for reasons that have nothing to with Flash), and Flash STILL causes the AOSP browser to freeze/crash.
So, I admitted defeat, sometime back in August, and installed Firefox. For the most part, I use the AOSP browser - but if I know I need to use Flash, I use Firefox.
------------------------------------------
A workaround using Flashify...
This method is dependant on how often you access Flash content... if it's only occasionally, then it's fine and works OK. But if you need to access Flash content a lot, you'd probably be better off just using Firefox as your default browser.
Along with the AOSP Browser, install the Firefox browser.
Then install Flashify.
Set your AOSP browser as default... and use this browser on a routine basis, as normal.
On the occasion you need to access Flash content (say on a given website) in the AOSP browser tap on the menu, and select 'Share page'.... a bunch of listed apps will appear, one of which will be 'Flashify'.
Select 'Flashify', and a list of your installed browsers will appear (including Chrome)... select Firefox.
The webpage URL you're currently looking at will be 'sent' to Firefox... and any Flash content will now work.
Sounds more complicated than it actually is... and I know it's hardly an ideal or an elegant solution, but I've been using this method since mid-August, so it's habitual for me. I do it without really thinking about it.
------------------------------------------
Hope this helps... and if you ever do find a way of making Flash work in the AOSP brower, please post your solution.
Rgrds,
Ged.

I also tried many different browsers but with 4.3 - nothing.
on 4.2 Boat Browser helped me better the Opera of Firefox
