Apps Hang and dont donwload from Market

I am having this problem recently. I try to download any app or an update to any app. It will just sit at starting download and never download.
I am on Fresh ROM 1.0
I did update some apps after installing the ROM so that's not the problem.
I also have a problem that if I clear the cache, when I reboot Everything force and keeps force closing forever. Whats up with that? isn't the cache supposed to recompile on reboot?
I tried clearing the cache to fix the market issue to no avail (beacuse of all the force closes never got to see what happened after clearing cache). I tried clearing the cache from recovery and using Fresh's app installer,and both times tons of force closes.
Someone please HELP!

U probably need to login to gtalk. I had the same problem from using autostarts. Jus open the gtalk app, it will/should sign u in automatically.

this is not a gtalk issue. gtalk is not even related to what problem he has. i had it happen to me on my eris when i was playing around in the bootloader. when i started back up everything force closed and would not start. only sugetion i can give you on the force close it is a factory reset or ruu reset both will work. as far as downloads not starting are you rooted?

Yes, to install a custom ROM you need to be rooted. Tried the gtalk sing in to fix the Market issue and no dice. Still hanguing...
Anything else??

So I'm not going to call you out or something, but please read before you speak. Gtalk is MAJORLY tied in to the market and it is a documented fix from google themselves to try signing in to gtalk to fix stalled downloads.
Even though it doesn't work for everyone (depending on the reason it's stalled) it IS related.

Hundreds (maybe thousands?) of posts. Starting back in March and dating all the way until today. Google hasn't been able to resolve the issue. I can tell you that what has always worked for me is a combination of cancel download > disable wifi > disable mobile data > enable mobile data > try download again.
Didn't work? Reboot and repeat. Eventually it will go......

Thanks a lot flipz. I'll try that

95% of the time your second sugestion works. it may be that gtalk has major issues with stalled downloads but ussually i have this issue when i start my download over wifi for some reason it just never connect to the google server but when i kill the download and connect over 3G or Edge it works everytime on my G1. that's been a documented fix too. this issue only happens more frequently on custom roms than stock android roms. so it's more of a rom issue that googe issue. we're all here to help each other not trash talk each other. from my point of veiw gtalk may have some type of issue but it's more with the rom cooks than the app itself and it's not their fault either gtalk was desighned to work on googles cookie cutter os not on the home brew roms so errors happen you just have to know how to sweat talk your andoid to doing things when issues happen. the problem i had with your post was you only stated the gtalk issue when the wifi issue is more prevelent. i wasn't sure if he was on stock os or custom os so i asked about it. then i would have given him the instructions on turning off the the wifi, killing the downloads, and restarting the phone. like you told him to in the second post cause that seem to work better than the gtalk method.

I stated clearly on my first post I am on Fresh 1.0 ROM, so everyone would know I was on a custom ROM.

sorry. i did not read your post clearly thought when you said fresh you ment fresh install. haven't really been keeping up with the hero roms to much and thier names still waiting for my eris to get it's turn at root. when i saw your post it just reminded me of how my rooted G1 would not start downloads over wifi. so i asked rooted or not just to be on the safe side.
the thing that got me a little heated was when he said "not to call you out" then he goes into a trist about how wifi seems to be the better fix.
by the way did you get your problem fixxed?

(Ok,fair enough it can be confusing when i wrote fresh; no worries).
About my problem: Not at all man, I tried every single one of the fixes and no luck. I am thinking about going back to stock and reflashing the custom ROM. I'll report back if/when/how it gets fixed

I ended up factory resetting and now everything downloads normally

So... apps were downloading perfect from market UNTIL I restored a nandroid backup. Afterwards, Apps hang again. I mean exactly after restoring, went to the market and the problem is there again. Can the problem be tied to restoring backups? Or just coincidence?
Update:
Got the downloads working after clearing the cache of every single google application on the phone as well as IM.
After this, started downloading the app and it still hung. Opened gtalk and exactly as it signed in it started downloading fine.
I tried the afore mentioned fixes and had no luck, so for anyone who has this issue and has not been able to resolve it, this is another workaround.

Just FYI to anyone still with problems, I had problems again today EXACTLY after restoring a backup again.
This post I quoted by Zippy-man did the trick today Great Help..

Market problem (not the download one)

Today after I flashed the latest JPX Docrom, I wanted to visit the Market. Suddenly appeared to me the following error message: "Warning: Your device may not be compatible with Android Market For more information, contact the manufacturer of this product.". In the Market I have now lost my installed applications displayed and when I search for "documents" I hit only 5 results.
What I've tried:
-Re flashed the Rom
-flashed JM9 and then the standard JPX-
-flashed CyanogenMod
-searched for errors in the build.prop
etc. ......
I really do not know what more can I do? It would be very nice if you could help me.
I'm really sorry for my bad English

Have you wiped cache & dalvik cache after install?

This should be in general...

I wiped the normal and the dalvik cache and made an factory reset.

I have the same problem too
with original JPU, JPX, JPO, JM9, JP6... with all, the problem appears again

I have the same problem!
I tryed JPU clean without any mod/kernel ecc but 2 day ago was all fine..
Someone have this problem? what can we do to resolve?
Please help...
Thanks

This could be another time a problem with google. Like with the download problem.

i had this problem too this morning (i'm not on Doc's rom or anything, just using Supercurio's VooDoo kernel on stock FroYo). I got it fixed after clearing the Market Cache, after that i restarted the Market app, and immediately had the NEW Market layout. Maybe it's worth a shot.
J.

Maybe,
but why someone have this problem and someone no...
i can't understand this absurd situation...

But I´m glad to see that this not only my problem.

got same problem... tried everything, wiping everything lots of different roms.. nothing helps

Try updating to the latest version of market. Not via phone, but either search in the xda or google it & install.

also tried this, will try it again.
Think it's somehow coupled to my google account.

Today i have the same problem. My device mounts the RSJP5 rom. I guess that it is a server issue, or a random google account issue.

Are your IMEIs ok?
Market shows & behaves perfectly for me as of THIS moment.

Market not working - how do I remove downloaded OTA update?

I have a problem. I can not get Market to work, even with the market enabler and the latest market mod from the NotionInkHacks forum. I had it working first, then did the OTA and it was still working. But then I did a full factory reset to clear out my Adam (something I always do after a few days with new units, so I can remove the traces of experimenting. And now I can't get Market working again! I have done the unbricking update with the recovery image dated the 24. of Jan, and I'm pretty sure that will fix it. The problem is that I can't seem to get rid of the OTA update that's on the unit. I have tried to hard reset it with both the reset in Settings and the one in the flash menu (power on + vol up), and still it's there installing itself. And I can't find it with Sniffer or Root Explorer! Any idea how I can remove this thing, so I can get back the Market access?
I also deleted the recovery.zip on the "internal SD card", and still I get "Your Adam is up to date" when I try to check if I'm back to an earlier image, and I have the same problem with Market. Driving me up the wall here! According to my About Adam the build number is NIP20230111.

I finally solved that. I downloaded the 5. of Feb update, and now I can update to the latest. Still market doesn't work, though. Any help on that would be appreciated! Driving me totally crazy...

Did you try force closing market and clearing data?

Sorry, should have posted that I finally got it. I went to Edenx and tried 3-4 full resets with that, and suddenly it worked. I have no idea how and why, but it's there now. It' very slow, but it's there. My son's Nook Color pops into market and makes searches in seconds, this takes at least half a minute. But I can deal with that. I've got Titanium Backup now, so I won't have to download anything more from the market if I don't need new apps.

Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped

After flashing the 4.4.2 firmware to my Note 3, I get the following error message once the device turns on: "Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped". I can just click ok and the message goes away but it shouldn't be appearing in the first place so does anyone know how to make it go away? An the phone works fine.
Yes I did a clean install, tried clearing the data and cache from app manager and any of the obvious ideas.
Anybody else having this issue? Any help is greatly appreciated!

try doing a factory reset, if this does not work then try flashing a different 4.4.2 or re-downloading the one you flashed and trying again.

you have already downloaded and installed a different version of 4.4.2????
if you are getting the problem on multiple roms then you must be doing something wrong during the flashing process.

Hmm, Tried a reflash? -- if no good, reflash with a full wipe that usually solves 99% of issues. Only thing I can think of

I had that problem too and it almost made me to hit my note 3 into the wall. From the first day I turned him...
My fix solution was Settings>Application Manager> Menu > Reset app preference>Reboot. Do it again if its going to be the sam outcome. I found tjat when you are force stopping aps, or closing you are going to end with those messages....

my friend
don't try to reset , wipe any thing .
i have same problem and posted before : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620340
i asked from all kings of developing , but no one could help me .
i searched on google and found out that problem maybe cause of our sim-card . maybe changing sim card your problem will be solved.
i'm almost confident that is cause of baseband " NA6" and we should wait for 4.4.2 for our region with different baseband .
be aware , this problem is with u even when try any custom rom , cause all af the are using NA5 and NA6 .
just crossing your finger and wait for new and diffrent baseban version my friend .

I'm having a similar issue accept my phone boots with the error, and will not go away even after multiple confirmations and reboots. Tried wiping cache/dalvik but nothing.

Are you rooted with any changes?
Sent from my Note 3...making all others drool!

I had the same type of problem myself,
But on my HTC one. I was close to start the painful process of unrooting my device and go back to stock.
My problem was not having ANY network & using the phone or sms didn't work at all. I read many "solutions" on the internet but none helped.
I experimented myself and found a solution to my problem. If it can help others as well I am glad.
First go into settings, then apps.
Scroll to all applications, search for phone.apk - if you have an option to uninstall phone.apk to previous version/state do this. Reboot the phone. In my case this did the trick and everything is working properly. Hope it helps others as well.
Please respond if you tried and it worked. It may be helpful for others too.

Try wiping cache, dalvik cache, system data and then factory reset (all this from recovery). I don't own a LG phone but this process is the same for almost all phones I think.

How did you wipe the cache/dalvik in this situation. I can't even reinstall anything to re-root the phone. And there is no keyboard that I can type on. The only way that I can communicate with the phone is to speak through voice mode. And that isn't always a good experience.

Netflix Error 5.2 after updating to Android 8.0- UNROOTED, STOCK

Hi all,
Just updated my stock, unrooted Verizon Galaxy S8 this morning to Android 8.0. Now, whenever I try to watch a show on Netflix, I get an error message saying "This video could not be played. (5.2)". I have already uninstalled and reinstalled, restarted my phone, and called Netflix (who said to just contact Samsung- and we all know how useful that will be). Any ideas here for how to fix?
Thanks!

I fixed that using root.
In a nutshell:
Rename the following file:
/system/lib/liboemcrypto.so to /liboemcrypto.so.bak
Not sure if you can root a Verizon S8, try your luck at this thread for a discussion on the issue.

I can't, and don't want to root- I feel like Netflix and/or Samsung really screwed up here

This is an issue with Android's DRM implementation, I guess. Can you check if your device passes SafetyNet?

Haha well I'm glad it's working for you! After it working all night for me, I'm now getting the same exact error you were getting. It's really annoying me, going to try rebooting next I guess.
Edit
So, rebooting was enough to let me watch one episode of a show, but then I got that error when I autoplayed to the next. I cleared the app's data and that fixed it, too. We'll see if that's a permanent fix.

I have this exact same problem. Don't want to root or unlock. I've tried uninstalling and installing the app. I've tried clearing data and cache. Is the next step a factory reset? Anything else I can do before that?

Same thing happened to me. Just uninstalling and reinstalling the app didn't work. Had to reboot the phone after reinstalling and after logging back into Netflix, went to settings and ran check network. Everything came back OK. Was able to watch without any issues since. Hoping it stays that way.
