Android Market Problems

Whenever I update any app it is causing the market to close. I'll go back to the market and the app I started the download update on will restart the download and finish. Very strange. This just started a few days ago. Any answers would be welcomed.

I have the same problem on stock rooted

Sometimes the market will force-close each time I start it forcing me to do some combination of clearing its cache, removing its update, or uninstalling the most recently installed apps. It's probably the least reliable app on my phone at the moment, with the mms app being in second place.
I've also started to have the issue of it crashing while download updates. If I restart it, it continues fine.
I have no way to qualify this, but it feels like the market app is particularly sensitive to network connectivity. Obviously it needs data to function but it doesn't seem to handle connectivity problems gracefully.
I'm still stock and not rooted.

Clear cache on market... That fixed mine.

I have this issue as well (rooted and unrooted). I was reading the google developer blog and many were complaining how this can screw up their payment, or processing of purchased apps. Not sure, but sounded like this was fairly widespread...

You are having the same problems I have. Force close on downloading of updates is very frustrating to say the least.
I am also stock and not rooted.

I have IG 1.1.1 flashed but my problem is it starts the download then freezes. The whole market goes down. If I reset the phone, when its done rebooting it doesn't reload all off my apps that were already saved to the sd card. Any ideas what is wrong or any way to get the lost apps back? I also have titanium but it only reloads them sometimes.

Thought I was alone with this! My market will also FC once I start to update an app, then multiple apps will update that I have flagged for auto-update. It seems my market gets overwhelmed by more than 1 app update running at a time. I just hit FC then re-open it and everything is fine again.

Market 2.2.6 seems a lot more stable for me. I will randomly get download failed messages from it, but it no longer seems to hang or FC anymore.

Browser Frezing Up...

Whenever I use the browser for a while with tabs, especially on forums, the browser stops loading pages. The page load status bar just stops half way.
If I force stop the browser in Settings and then go back into it everything works fine for a while until I need to force stop again.
Anyone else with this problem? Any solutions?

It happened to me today. I had to reboot and it got fixed.

I have been having similar issues with the default browser. It loads about 80% and then just stalls. Dolphin browser works fine so I know its not my wireless connection. Kinda of annoyong when I'm trying to do something and I prefer the default browser so I hope this gets fixed some time soon.

Same thing has been happening to me still day 1 with stock browser.
After about 3-4 tabs, pages will start to half load then crash. Even after force closing the browser when I reopen after about 2 tabs it starts to freeze up again until I restart the tab. And now Dolphin HD is crashing on me when ever there a flash heavy site.
WHat gives??

I am sure MOTO will fix this problem some day

The only problem/issue I've had with the browser is: When your watching a video via flash on a site, streaming it, if you switch away from that tab it stops playing the audio.
Makes it impossible to listen to something via stream in the browser and browse other sites =/

Not Moto's issue -- it's the stock honeycomb browser. This update will be coming from Google.

CM7 Browser issue....

whenever i try to download a file of the default browser in cm7 it seems about half of them are unsuccessful. i also have this problem when downloading apps from the market. and after using gingersense for a couple days i didnt have the problem once, so i assume its a cm issue and i wanna fix it.

I also have this problem, downloads are almost everytime unsuccesfull.
The market works just fine.

Clear data and cache on an app called downloads or download manager under settings : applications. If you don't have the option use titanium backup to do it. Then reboot. Should be fixed after that

Market Issues

Is anyone else having issues with the Market? For the last few days it keeps saying I have updates available for the same 8 apps Angry Birds, Titanium Backup, Evernote, etc. I've updated them and then the next day the same apps have updates available. Today there were additional apps that needed updates along with the same group. Anyone else have this problem?

Wipe data and cache...that may help!
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

I wiped cache, didn't help but did speed up my Market app. I'll wipe data after my phone charges since it just died.
new update, so I decided to try and update individually, after selecting Angry Birds for instance inside it only has options for Open and Uninstall. So it seems internally it knows its up to date but in the list view it doesn't.

What is happening to you is definitely freaky. I would try to wipe the app cache and then use cache cleaner and clear all of the caches. Then i would reboot and see what happens.

Update: deleted cache and data. Deleted backup of Market app in Titanium and deleted data of Market through Titanium also. Restarted phone and now works normal.
Quick note, last night i let the phone's battery drain fully and charged it over night. Turned it on this morning and it went into Recovery. Restarted phone and ot started up normal. There seems to be a gremlin lurking somewhere.

Update again: well thought it was fixed. But happened again, this time had 2 updates and first one was fine but second one which was Sketchbook Express only had the Open and Uninstall option! Maybe I should've just used the update all. Emailed Android and they suggested uninstalling Market updates and it will update back to latest market version in a few days. They said if it happens again to email them again.
Old market works fine for now. Saw Sketchbook had an update and updated it. We'll see how this goes and keep you guys updated. If this keeps up maybe I'll just reset the whole phone and go to CM7.

I am having similar issues. For some reason only paid apps show is the "My Apps" list. After installing and uninstalling a single app all apps show, but only temporarily. This is getting really annoying.
I have also seen that google does know about the problem, but im not sure how that will help lol

Must have something to do with the latest market and handling videos. Well atleast I know I'm not alone now.

browser crashing

Hi all,
When using my tablet the browser suddenly crahes, xda forum being the main offender. This happens with the stock browser and dolphin hd
No other apps open in the background
Anyone any ideas?

Search, this has been covered multiple times...
But try opera browser, it's good. Otherwise, routinely clear the cache from the browser app giving you issue, this seems to help. Once it gets to about 20mb it starts closing on content heavy pages.

cheers, thought cache but just with it being 2 different browsers. I will also try opera

I use opera and dolphin. Dolphin hd suffers from the aforementioned issue, but since I started clearing it's cache every few days it hasn't happened in months... Same with the stock browser, though I don't use that one as often.
