Market fubar?

Yesterday tried updating an app and all I got was a quick 1 second showing of the download icon in the notification bar and then it dissappeared with no error message. Tried numerous other apps, same crap.
Went through the normal clearing the cache of the usual suspects, logging out and back in of gtalk, and nothing.
12hrs later (this morning) same crap. Did a wipe wipe wipe and restored from a backup from a few weeks ago. Now all my apps just sit on "download starting". So it seems to be a market issue rather than something with my phone. I can check gmail etc fine so my account is good.
Anyone else experiencing yet another market fail? WindowsME was able to keep a longer uptime than the market.

I have this happen to me occasionally. I'm on dk28. It has not Lasted as long is for you though. Usually it only lasts a couple of minitues. Same as my wifes stock evo same thing
Ok. Something with my setup. Did a factory reset and didn't restore any backup.
Setup gmail account, went to market, agreed to TOS and the first app I tried downloaded fine.
Wiped again, restored backup, now back to unsuccessful downloads.
So, what could be causing it I can try to fix? In no mood to start from scratch after a factory reset unless I have no other choice.
On rooted DI18, not using anyones rom

Factory reset and install your apps one by one and see when it starts to act up and when you've fingered your culrpit, restore data and delete it? Idk. I hate when I'm in that situation. I hope it helps

Data disconnecting

Hey guys, I'm having an issue where my Atrix keeps disconnecting the data connection every few seconds whenever I start using data (browsing, youtube, google music, etc).
When the issue first started I was running ATT 4.5.91 with 01.77.15 Baseband. So far I tried factory reset, reflashing baseband, CM7 Ba2Tf, and right now I'm running on ATT 4.5.133 rooted and deodexed, with 01.77.36P ATT Baseband. I did the update to 4.5.133 and the current radio via CWM after wiping cache, dalvik and data. The problem still occurs.
If I keep my phone idle, it stays connected (blue bars, blue H+ icon and arrows beneath it).
A few seconds after I start browsing the web or using other data intensive tasks it keeps disconnecting the data connection at frequent intervals, every few seconds. It doesn't drop any signal bars, but the H+ and bars turn grey (lost connection to google servers) and doesn't show the Up/Down arrows below H+, meaning it disconnected the data connection. After a few seconds it connects back and everything turns blue again.
It's really annoying and I'm out of ideas. I have tried reflashing everything, another rom, another radion, also tried setting the apns by hand, all to no avail. Some insight would be very much appreciated, thanks in advance.
Sounds like an app problem. The new market did this in it's earlier versions. Would have to reboot or go into and out of airplane mode to reconnect data. What apps are you using when it happens?
In my case, CPU Tuner was causing this behavior.
I think I've set it up incorrectly or something and as soon as I uninstalled it the problem went away, but will try it again soon.

Thanks for the help, guys.
In order to test for an offending app, I cleared /data (factory reset on CWM), cache/dalvik cache and installed the latest CM7 weekly. I did not flash gapps and did not restore/installany third party apps.
The issue still appeared while browsing the web. Then I restored my current rom (att 4.5.133) and left the phone sit for a couple hours. After a while I did a few tests and everything was normal again. Then I went to bed after testing the phone for about one hour and when I woke up the issue was back. Could it be that my carrier has anything to do with it? I'm trying to get a hold of another carrier's SIM with data enable to test it out.
I had this exact issue. I was running CM7 Ba2Tf for several weeks, no problems. Then all of a sudden, my connection to google would drop for no reason at all.
The H+ & signal bars would turn white, indicating that I still had a data connection to AT&T, but no connection to google. Every time I used one of the gapps, the connection to google would drop. This was especially apparent when I was using google talk.
I cleared caches, data, re-flashed, wiped, etc..., and the problem persisted. There was absolutely no way around the problem. I'm baffled that after completing clearing & re-flashing everything, the problem persisted.
I could not find a workaround. I am now running a fruitcake variant, and do not have this problem. I really miss CM7, and am curious to hear if anyone has found a legitimate solution.
It looks like this is not a new bug either. Check out Cyanogen mod issue 3557.
I know that this thread doesn't have much action, but for what it's worth, I don't have this problem on Jokers ICS Roms.
It appears that when this problem manifests itself, it's somewhat rom specific.

Sounds strange, but I had the exact same problem after I installed Chess for Buddies. I removed the app and everything went back to normal. I do miss playing chess though

I have it on Turl's ICS.
That's crazy! Did you have it the instant you flashed the ROM, or were you able to run for a few days?
What were you running beforehand?

I think those having this problem should try removing APNs they are not using, thus only leave the one you are using.
I was having this issue on any application that would load up the GPS, as soon as I deleted all other APNs and just left the one I needed I never had the problem. I think part of the issue is when GPS connected it would quickly knock me out from data but on reconnect it would try the standard ATT APN versus the mvno I am using.
Probably won't help for everyone but that was my solution and it has worked on various ROMs I have tried (Blur, CM7, CM9).
That's a solid observation mastermind.
I would to add that the evening before I started seeing the issue, I enabled tethering on my cm7 the (ba2tf). Pretty much the next day I started seeing the issue.
Perhaps something got screwed up in the APN settings when I tethered. Up until then I hadn't seen the issue.

[Q] Problem with Flipboard

Hello everyone,
I have an issue I can't solve specifically with flipboard.
Short story short: Yesterday I connected to a wifi in a café. They had the usual wall before the connection: signup, name, email etc. then I could get connected. The wifi was called The Cloud, in a Costa coffee of London. Everything fine.
Then I get back home, and now, for certain feeds in my flipboard, I get this screen (attached).
I tried to erase the cache from Flipboard and my browser, didn't help.
Please tell me I'm not going to have to wipe my entire system... How could I fix this?
THANK YOU!
Remove and reinstall Flipbook? It's a little less drastic than wiping your entire system.

I guess so, thanks
Yeah, I'm sure that Flipboard just tried to cache some articles before you logged on to the wifi at the cafe. The problem probably would have gone away on its own after a few days anyway.

[Q] Cannot Download Apps Error 500

So with my G2 running Clean Rom 1.0 I just started getting errors trying to download apps from the app store. Error 500 is what I get on wifi and on mobile data. I have tried resetting the APN, clearing cache and data on Google Play app and have wiped cache and dalvik cache with fix permissions. Still I get the 500 error, what else can I try besides factory resetting the device? Anyone?
Also I have searched and it seems no one goes past resetting the APN as a fix.
It works now.... Not phone related.. All my friends had this issue for the last half hour with the play store.. It started working now tho

phone restarting

Just got the s5 phone about a month ago and it restarted on it's own out of no where while viewing a you tube video..
Another issue is when on you tube it's very hard to scroll in videos is this normal? I also notice a bit of lag while using messaging or scrolling a website is this normal?

Have you tried clearing the YouTube app data in settings/apps/all apps? Or clear the caches in recovery? Or else data factory reset or if that doesn`t help reflash the stock rom with Odin.
Unfortunately you didn't give us much information to go on. For instance you didn't say if your phone restarted just the once or how often, if it is recurring. It's hardly worth worrying about a one time glitch if it doesn't repeat.
The first thing to try to solve a persistent restart issue is as was already suggested, try clearing the cache and data for the app in the settings menu application manager. And then boot to recovery mode and wipe the cache there too. Past that, you can try reinstalling the app or starting in safe mode to narrow down the cause. You are essentially trying to narrow down the possibilities and watch for any pattern in what might be causing the issue.
If you are sensitive to lag, then search for some posts about debloating your phone or installing a custom ROM that is better optimized. It's all of the superfluous Samsung junk and carrier apps that cause most of the lag.
