My wife has iheartradio installed on her Captivate.
Today, for no apparent reason it stopped working. Now, when she opens the app it displays a red dot with this at the bottom:
Fetching Configuration
Version 2.2.2
I have tried everything I can think of. I uninstalled the app, I searched the dalvik-cache, app folders, sd cards and removed everything I could find associated with the file - then re-installed.
NOTHING works.
She likes this app so she can listen to some of her favorite talk show hosts in the morning. And, we can't find another app to play those stations.
I did some searching and couldn't find a solution. If I missed something please direct me to the correct location.
Thanks,
Shane

So I love the idea behind AppBrain and now Android Market (on pc) but I can't get either to work with my phone. Both sync my apps to their website but neither will install the apps I choose onto my phone. Android Market shows the app as installed and adds it to the list while AppBrain says "...error sending the app to the phone..."
I thought it was first the program but now I'm wondering if it's a phone setting I need to change. I have installed and turned on Fast Web Installer and I have made sure I am logged into Google Voice but nothing has helped. I searched around but all other similar problems look like they were solved with an update a while back. Any ideas?
I have a Droid 1 running CynogenMod v6.1.2 with P3Droid kernel LV1.2
Google did some sneaky stuff in the 2.2 android update that disabled the AppBrain Fast Web Installer. The latest version of AppBrain is supposed to have the feature back, but I haven't got it to work either. If you turn off fast Web Install you can brows and create install lists on the AppBrain website and then just click the "INSTALL" button a few times in the app. This makes it easier than browsing the market on your phone, but is still not perfect. I'm just waiting for AppBrain to fix the latest fix so it actually works again. It used to work so well
AppBrain Fast Web Installer is not working on my phone either.
Just to add to previous poster reply as it took me a few minutes to find how to disable Fast Web Installer (i tried uninstalling the application and searched on AppBrain site without success): you have to go into AppBrain app in Preferences/Disable Fast Web Install.
As for Android Market it's woking fine. I haven't changed any setting to get it to work.

Your pc is behind a router?
I've just installed clockworkMod v08 and TnT Lite v4.2.5, following the instructions in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
I been able to successfully complete all the steps up until you need to open the market place app.
I installed adobe flash player or atleast it seems to work; both newgrounds and bbc news video loaded just fine.
Whenever I try to load the Market Place or Gmail, the screen just flashes and returns to the same screen where I selected the app to begin with.
I suspect that my mistake is something painfully obvious, but I haven't figured it out yet. I believe, I haven't done the following:
Log in/set up your Google Account before trying the market fix
I tried doing this using the contact app, and this did import all my phone contacts, but I'm not sure.
Can someone please tell how I need to go about setting up my Google Account on the G-Tablet now that I'm running TnT Lite v4.2.5?
Thought I would ask before attempt the two alternative methods link in the bottom of the guide I linked to early my post.
Thanks.
tap the MENU
tap SETTINGS
tap ACCOUNTS & SYNC
You can then add your Google account(s)

I don't see an accounts and sync tap in the setting page. The closest I've seen is a family accounts.
Market fix is the one downside to my Gtab. Every time Google updates the app site...I have to do a fix. Last fix borked my tab so bad, all of my system and purchased apps all FC'd on me.
Did my wipe, re-installed tnt 4.2.5 used Titanium BU to restore all my apps and now I too can't locate the sync option. I know it use to be there, but now it's MIA as well.
what ROM are you running on your GTablet?
I'm running VEGAn b1 5.11 and have no problem with accessing the Market (It just doesn't show many of the apps that I have access to when accessing through my Android phone).
TnT lite 4.2.5. and I have the same issue you have. Market site only shows the apps that did an update after the restore was done. I still have 15 more apps that don't up in market place under "my apps", and it's been 3 days since I did my restore and market fix.
One thing I did notice w/ the fix is that it took on avg. 48 hrs for my device to show back up under my devices in the market place. This is now the longest I've gone w/ it not showing up.
Intermittently when installing apps from the market I get the above error. I've tried clearing the cache and re-installing the app. Neither has any effect. Anyone get the market to work predictably on the kindle fire? I'm using the app from the guide that calls for vending.apk
Uninstall vending.apk and use the one that ends in amarket.apk instead.
That causes the market to crash every time I try and launch it.

Strange, it works fine for me. I've never used the vending.apk always used the com.amarket.apk
Did you try clearing the storage or deleting vending one first? If that doesn't help, then I have no clue. I have no issues with the market with that APK.
Did you push it to the /system/app folder before installing?
I have it working perfectly, thus far. Cn you list apps that are failing so I can try it?

Ok, I uninstalled the market app and cleared the card. I re-downloaded and re-sideloaded everything. I have the market. I can click install but the apps I want to install are stalling at "starting download". I'm on wifi, I can access the web fine.
Apps that won't install.
Google Music
Retro Clock
OTA rootkeeper
I just installed Google Music without error. Did you install the market from the system/app folder?
//Tapatalk.KindleFire//
I have the same problem. I installed the vending.apk in systems/app ensured all the permissions are correct (when they weren't market would insta-crash) so I re-installed, corrected permissions and it loaded but now whenever I try and download it hangs on, "Waiting for download to start"
Also if I search for say, "Official Twitter App" it will bring up the first 15/20 or so options covering 2/3's of the screen of 15,000 or whatever but there's no option to see more.
Is that normal? I've never used Android before.
Apps I've tried to download,
Busybox
Twitter
OpenVPN Installer
OpenVPN Settings
(BTW until there's a tun.ko don't bother with VPN...)
I had this problems too, i tried 10 diffrent versions of the market.
The solution was to clear cache and data from the "Download Manager" app. I also cleared cache and data from all google apps, but i think the download manager was the main problem.
Thanks for the tip to clear the download app data but didn't work for me...
I'll have a go with the other suggested apk tomorrow.
Problem Solved! / Solution? Not really.
I've got it working.
I have two different vending.apk files. I didn't hash them to see if they're exactly the same but they have the same size to the byte. One installed the phone market version and the other installed the tablet market version. The tablet version not only looks slicker but it crashed exactly once and after I restarted the device it's worked flawlessly as far as I can tell. Installed many nice apps.
My initial thought is that I missed a step in the process early on, serves me right being a script kiddie type and just following the steps instead of understanding why each step is taken. I think I've learned a lot about how security works in android from this experience.
Also, google reader on the kindle fire rocks. Get the articles to fill the screen and you can page through them like the best magazine ever written.
I got Market working by integrating it into the ROM through Titanium Backup. It seemed to be the only way I got it to work.
About a 4 or 5 days ago a app started showing up in my "Installed" tab in the Google Play Store. The app has no title, and it says its made by TimothyMilla. The comments on the app say that its tied to Teeter, which is an HTC Bloatware game that comes with the phone. I haven't clicked Open on the app yet because the other apps made by TimothyMilla look suspect, TimothyMilla didn't make Teeter, and I didn't install whatever this is.
My question is does anyone else have this issue, or know what it is? Or does anyone know if TimothyMilla apps are spyware? Look Out Security couldn't find any maleware, but i'm really concerned with this showing up.
I've tried wiping everything off my phone, which removed the app at first, but by the time I finished reinstalling all my apps, it showed up again. (I reinstalled apps directly from Google Play, not through a phone back up).
Yeah I have the same app showing up in my play account. Comes up clean jen scanned though..

* when scanned...

It's Teeter, however does not know why it shows up this way.
I removed teeter via titanium Backup (never played it) and it was also gone from My Apps on the store.
Hi!
I have such strange "app" too. And I've teeter installed on my phone. Anyway, I've never seen Timothymilla before yesterdey on my phone market.
I don't want to remove Teether. What is this app?
I noticed this yesterday as well. I clicked 'Open' and it opened Teeter. I haven't noticed anything different about my phone, so for now I'm just assuming its a link anomaly of some sort.

RCMix3D 4.0

That is exactly what it is. This "dev" has an "app" with the same package name as the stock teeter app and thus is being mistakenly tagged in the store. Timothy Milla is NOT the dev that created teeter. The same thing is happening with the GS2's stock email app. The store is mistaking it for some Russian app. This is all do to the latest update to the store, 3.5.15. In short, you don't have Timothy Milla's app, you have teeter. The market link launches teeter because that is the package on the device that corresponds to that "app."
I don't know what happened but such entry has disappeared on my Play Store.
I had a similar event show up in my apps yesterday on my Acer Iconia A500 tablet. The strange thing is that it doesn't show the typical 3 choices of Update, Open, and Un-install. It just has a button for Open. I have no idea what it is so I am not opening it.
Is there some way to block an app from showing updates?
Rooted A500 - Thor HC 14.2 ROM
TimothyMilla appeared again!
This bothers me a lot!
One thing I forgot to mention is that this unknown app of mine has no permissions listed and also has no ratings or comments section. Does your Timothy Milla app have all these usual "bits" shown in its listing, or are they also missing on your mystery app?
As for the permission list, I don't see one too. But I don't see permission even on other normal apps. As for the comments, yes, they are present, I see few comments.
This morning I had 4 apps in the update list on my tablet, but the mysterious app previously discussed was gone. Hopefully Google figured out what was going on and dealt with it on their server.
Actually it disappeared again on my device too.
So, it seems to be a Google Play issue.
I'm getting the same information on the similar thread I started on Android Forums, so it looks like the issue has been discovered and fixed.
Not spyware
Well this is a little flattering... I'd just like to clear some things up. No, this isn't some major hack on the Android market that puts you all at risk. It is however, a huge bug in the new Play Store Google put out a little while ago. Let me explain: Google used to have a list of package names that they would screen from appearing in the market for example, preinstalled apps such as Teeter. Somehow when Google updated to the Play store, this system got reversed and it somehow picked my developer account (I'm still trying to contact Google and find out how) and displayed this on your "My apps" section. No, the app was not automagically installed on your phone, it was always preinstalled but it just now showed up in the Android market because of faulty programming on the engineering team for Google Play.

There is no way my device would have an intrinsic application which doesn't even list itself in English. Especially because the device on which it appeared is running a custom ROM, so I know which apps it would have "preinstalled". I believe what you are saying is that Google initially chose to block your account based upon that app, and it somehow got through. They likely had a good reason to do so. I see you do have other apps on the store, but every one of them lists in English. Not very compelling evidence that the rogue app was something safe.
I have a tf101, with AOKP build 28(1.6) and flashed gapps-ics-031712, and I also downloaded the 4.5.11 music apk, and it worked at first. Then i didnt use my tab for music for quite some time, and when i went to use it again, it said "Couldnt play requested track." I thought perhaps this was only my music that I had stored in the cloud, but it will not play anything I have on my SD card either. I have tried downloading and installing the 4.5.13 apk, both through downloading the apk straight to the tab, as well as using marketenabler to get it straight from market. I've rebooted and wiped cache, and dalvik cache. I am curious; Does anyone know if there is something I have not tried, or if there is some other method to get Google Music onto our beloved transformer?
I had that happened last month.
Look for an app call Dev Tools (might be in the market but i know it's part of CM9 ROM). Run the "media scanner" option. That fixed it for me. If you can't find the app let me know I'll post it for you.
I can't seem to find it in market, or an apk online, so if you've got it that'd be a great help
edit: found what you were talking about, shows up as "developer" tools in market, thanks!
