Just got the phone today, have an issue with the market. Every app I try to download, fails, says thatcdownload was not successful. Any ideas? Anybody else having problems? Also, if I try and do factory data reset, it fails as well.
Odd man, no issue here... sorry I cant offer anything up.
no everything ok here but i do have an isue with Google GPS on the maps??
no problems with market either.
My Market keeps losing connection every now and then.
Market works fine for me as well tho on occasion it takes a little while to load the "services description" after hitting install on an application.
I had no problems what so ever with the market before i rooted the phone
^ that makes it sound like you have an issue AFTER rooting? But you did not explain.... so I assume you do not have an issue?

Haven't rooted it yet even. I'm thinking something wrong with the rom on my phone. Am at the gym now, was going to go to the store and try to get a replacement after.
Just picked up a brand new vibrant and I'm having market issues. Unsuccessful downloads. NO root BTW. Some apps initially installed but now it doesn't work anymore despite several reboots

Correct. I was chiming in that I had no issues until I changed something.

Just came back from Tmobile. Got a replacement, tested market at the store and updated maps and installed Pandora with no issues. Drove home, issue came back! Blenheim, it is not my phone, something is going on here!

spoke to the folks over at tmobile611 and they said that since our plans get 'reset' when buying a new phone, such issues are possible. they advised the usual 48hr period to see if the problem goes away.
interestingly, my 3g works for web browsing and everything else. its only the market that's having an issue, even over WiFi.

Unlikely, I paid full retail as I am on even more plus and I'm not even the primary on my account. My gf got the slide last week, she hasn't had any problems like this.
I fixed it!!! Not sure which one of the things did it, but here is what I've done!
A) in settings, manage apps, clear cache for market AND market updater AND download manager. I also force stopped them all!
B) under settings, manage networks, switched to 2g only for 39 seconds, then unchecked the box again. After, I went ahead and searched for networks and hit select automatically.
Then bow market is working, knock on the wood!

interesting.. i put my SIM back in my mytouch3g and the market worked just fine (after it prompted me to enter my password again).
put the SIM back in the Vibrant, entered market, input password on being asked, and AGAIN NO DOWNLOADS!

Danger, I'm sorry, that's what I've done and it still is working. Annoying issue for sure, if I find anything else, I will post it here. Maybe somebody else has a better solution?
I am having problems with my market as well and the above suggestion didn't help. Suck!
the advice given to me over in the root your vibrant thread was to sign into google talk first, then open the market. It works, most of the time, although the majority of the time it doesnt install the first time and I have to hit retry once or twice. But it does work.
For the past 48 hours I have been having problems downloading anything from the UK market? Everything stops at 'Starting download'. It had been working fine until then and I uninstalled the few apps I had recently installed to see if that was the problem but no joy.
When I turned my phone on this morning it downloaded all the updates I had been trying to get yesterday so I assumed it was working. When I then tried to download some more updates the problem was there again. Any ideas why this is happening?
I am running Cronos 2.1.3
I had the same problem yesterday. Rebooting the phone did nothing. However, I saw a post that said switching on airplane mode and then disabling it might work. Fortunately, it did. Hope it does for you.
o thought it was jsut me. Although the problem fixed itself after a reboot, and is fine now.
Running VillainROM 10.3.
I thought it had somethign to do with my phones low storage.
Android Marketplace
Is anyone still having problems downloading today?
I've just got back Hero back after HTC fixed the screen so I'm looking to reinstall all my apps - however nothing will download at all. I've tried WiFi, 3G, rebooting the phone, switching airplane mode on/off, logging in & out of googletalk & also hard resetting.
Still all I get is "starting download" and nothing else.
I can't see of anything else to try.

Thanks. Seems to have worked. I found that I had to leave airplane mode on for a while before turning off. If I turn it off and then straight back on doesn't seem to work
This is now getting stranger and stranger.
I left the phone overnight and awoke to find that about half a dozen apps that I'd previously downloaded (they show in my download list but not currently installed as the phones been wiped) had actually downloaded and installed without any problems at all.
The other half dozen or so apps haven't downloaded yet. And the ones that I actually told it to download also haven't.
I've left the phone for another 6-7 hours this morning while I was out .... and still nothing has downloaded. I've got 2 things that say "starting download" and that's it.
Yeah - I'm back to having the problem again. I'll try turning airplane mode on for a while. This is really strange. I wonder if we have not installed the same application (or an update) that caused this. I think most recently I installed the latest Evernote. Did you happen to do that as well?

I don't have Evernote. I also uninstalled apps I had recently downloaded.
As far as i know IT is a market Problem. Some have it, other Not. Two friends have the same problem, one with a g1 and the other with a legend. Google says it could take time till tomorrow.

In a post in this thread http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile-pulse-pulse-modaco-com/315840/android-market-resolved/ someone claims that this is the fix:
Turns out google have screwed up some (if not all) UK accounts with the switch to GMail.
The fix is simple. Change your account from @googlemail to @gmail, wait an hour (recommend 2) then factory reset your phone, sign into your google account (@gmail) and your good to go
You can change your account from @googlemail to @gmail in the GMail setting (On a desktop computer not a phone) The option is in tiny writing

Before I try this I wanted to ask: Is everyone having problems in the UK and do you all have @googlemail email addresses?

I was having the market problem from Thursday to Sunday last week, changing my Google account to @gmail.com and doing a factory reset (I didn't read anything about the 2 hour wait, so skipped that step) fixed it for me. The other potential fixes I read about like opening GTalk, turning Airplane mode on and off did nothing for me.
I had the same problem. I tried wiping cache from recovery and applications menu. In the end I juts re-flashed after a Titanium backup which solved the issue. I was running VillainROM 12
I have changed my email from @googlemail to @gmail, done a factory reset and the market seems to be working. A PITA: thanks Google
Yeah - I've got a U.K. googlemail address. I was a little hesitant to switch from googlemail to gmail because I thought people had a lot of problems with that. Do your paid apps get transferred?

Mine seem to have been transferred fine.
I had the same problem. Changing my email from [email protected] to [email protected] in google account settings fixed it.

By factory reset, do you mean a full wipe? So I'd have to install all my apps again?
Sorry for being a bit thick but if I'm going to do a wipe, may as well change the ROM again
Yup. Full wipe
I am rooted and have SS installed.
Just last week, my VM symbol showed up. I use google voice and have been for a few years now. It was the stock VM symbol. So, I listened to my messages in stock (not GV) and deleted them. The symbol still stuck. I removed the battery and restated, still nothing. I even went into the phone app and force stopped the phone app. The icon went away on my status bar for a few hours, then it reappeared!
Its just frustrating.....normally I would just put a piece of black electrical tape over whatever was bothering me.....this...well, I can't.
I have searched several forums and there used to be a setting somewhere that would just clear the notifications.
I have not changed anything with my stock VM or GV settings in years.
Not sure why this is happening all of a sudden.
Thanks in advance

I tried that too. Strangely enough...I just re setup GV and it went away! Whew, it was making me nuts!!
Thanks for your help!
This happened to me on my Galaxy Nexus. Ended up having to call verizon to have them reset my voicemail. I also use google voice.
It's doing it again every time I power down my phone and turn it back on, the dang icon is back in my status bar. I force close the phone app and it goes away. Looks like I'm going to call Verizon. Thanks

I'm having the same issue, it just happened to me today and I have google voice as well. I can't even get into my stock voicemail inbox. When I call the stock voicemail it goes to my google voice recording.
Have u found a fix? And why is this all of a sudden happening to us around the same time?
I wish I could say I have found a fix....... I just force close the phone app every time I reboot.

Yeah every time I reboot it reappears.
Strangely enough this exact thing happened to me yesterday. I resolved the problem by:
Change VM provider in phone settings back to Verizon VM.
Open voicemail app and (if available) sign up for the visual VM demo (or call the VM number, you should be able to get in now).
You should have one or more VM's in the stock system, make sure they are all marked as read, notification should go away.
Switch your BM provider back to Google Voice and now you should be good to go.
If you signed up for the Visual VM demo, you can cancel it now.
This has worked for me so far, rebooted multiple times and the notification has yet to return.

Wow that actually worked, thank you so much. What is weird is that I did have a voicemail from yesterday that went to the stock app, not google voice which is strange. What caused it to do that?
I have a sprint galaxy s5. Ive had this problem for about a month and the only thing i havent tried is coming here. The push notifications are not coming through on any app unless the phone is on wifi or i leave an app running on the screen while im away. Ive check all the settings, had sprint look on their side, factory reset, took it to a sprint store, and than had it replaced with another S5. After the first day with the new phone it worked fine until i went to sleep and it updated to 4.4.4 over night. The following day the same problem, no push notifications on data. I went to a samsung video chat and they said it was a bug and wait for the 5.0 update. Well......its here and im still waiting for my friends test email and facebook message to come through.
Any thoughts would be very much appreciated.

If you're rooted maybe this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andqlimax.pushfixer
could fix your issues. There is an app for non rooted devices too, but I doubt that it works as good.
I'm not rooted and tried the other app you recommended with no luck. I decided since the 5.0 update came through to factory reset the phone. I sent a test to my gmail and installed whatsapp to see if notifications would come through and I've had no luck. Looks like another trip to the sprint store for another phone.

Maybe you have Restrict Background Data checked. It wont give any notifications on Sim network till the app is open. Did you check this out? Push notifications are coming easy on the WiFi and not on mobile data.
I have tried the restrict background data, toggling it on and off and I also checked data usage for apps and none are restricted. Everything is fine on wifi but not on data, app has to be running on the screen to update if i'm not connected to a wifi. I've looked through different forums and many reported the issue fixed because the APN needed changed, but Sprint will not let me configure it. I've been through their tech team and everything seem right on their end.
Reposting from Verizon samsung galaxy s6 edge+ forum, just because this forum gets much more exposure.

Ok, so I've had this issue more than once, but MMS had completely stopped working, sending and receiving. The last two times it stopped, I figured it was because I cleared all data for the Samsung messaging app, and the only fix was to reset. And this was after owning the phone for only a few weeks. This time it's been fine for awhile, but suddenly stopped again, and I didn't delete the Samsung messaging app data. Any ideas on this issue so I don't have to reset again, I've done so much since the last time I reset, it would really suck to have to setup everything again.

Here's some basic info so far:
I am up to date on OS
I've been using the Samsung messaging app since last time I reset
I've tried restarting
I've tried *228
I've tried the Verizon messaging+ app, after issue started, but no change

P.S. it's the Verizon one, just in case you didn't already figure it out.
Fwiw, even though the Verizon messaging+ app doesn't work, textra does. I just confirmed that now.
Also, using the built in messaging app, I cannot even add a picture to a message, it just says cannot attach image.
