Today I received my new shiny Asus Transformer, everything works great except the Market itself...
I can't even download any apps, paid or free. When I try to download any apps, it start like trying to download, but there is no progress on notification bar and it just keep like that.
I reset the tablet several times, also, cleaned the cache of the Market and Framework services, shutdown (restart) several times... nothing
Is this happening to anyone? I searched this forum and performed the steps above, but still nothing...
Please, help
Have you look into My App area, you will see, not installed list of apps. I get that as well...I am not sure if it's a bug or intended. Sometimes, it would stay at download forever. I got to go out and go back into the Market and redo it all over.

Yes, sometimes the apps I am trying to download don't even appear there and sometimes it does. When it says "Installing" sometimes, 1 hour can pass and still nothing... no progress on the notification bar.
In fact, I can't install anything from there, not even using the website version, https://market.android.com/
I had/have this same issue I think its a bug in the market app. I've just flashed the new firmware and it seems to work OK now.
My solution was to press back over and over until I exited the market fully, then start a new instance of it. Works on and off.
Ill let you know if the update solves this issue.

Thanks for the info.
I tried that, still no luck I need to know if this is a widespread issue or not.
I have the EVO and tried to download apps and install them now without any problems.
Also, I have discovered that I can't log in into GTalk either, but I can browse without any issues.

Sounds like an odd issue with your account. Try to check settings, accounts an sync .. and see if anything is amiss. If not, then try to create a new gmail account, and use that to login to market/gtalk. See if there is some confusion as to your phone account and your tablet. Do you have settings>Privacy ticked off for google to back up your apps and sync them? Try disabling if so.
Had same issue and went into settings and had to delete my gmail account and then add it again, worked fine after that!
Thanks for the replies.
1. The Backup and Restore settings are turned off.
2. I have created another Google account and removed the original, still the same problem.
3. The EVO is currently off just in case.
After doing some research, I've discovered that Gtalk have something to do with the Market, if Gtalk can sign in, then the market should works for downloads. If not, then there is a problem.
ok... wtf
After adding a new Google account while replacing the original one, the issue still happened.
Then, I decided for a million times, to make another Factory Reset with my original account again... now GTalk logon and the Market download/install apps
I will keep this thread in mind and report if anything weird happens again.
Android Market hates me. I didn't really want to have to create another gmail account but I have tried every other trick posted and still can't get apps to download.
I had this same problem with my Samsung Fascinate. 3G would download fine but I couldn't get WiFi to work until just recently when I updated the radio that came with the OTA Froyo update plus a new custom rom/kernel. I'm not sure which piece all of the sudden made things work but I was certainly happy. What's so frustrating is that I set up a Droid on the same home network with absolutely no problems from day one.
Amazon App store works fine but many of the apps I want aren't available there. Grrr.

This occurred to me after rooting the TF. I was able to correct it by going into applications and force stop and clearing data on both Market and both google framework services. Then try to restart market, if you don't get a error go back to applications and do it again. Once you get the error reboot, when you try market after the reboot it will ask you to accept terms again and then all is was right again with the world.
I have the same problem. How I can do a Factory Reset?
It was working ok but now it gives an error with the server. Eventually it will download the aplication after trying several times but will fail in the instalation. I have deleted and created again my account with no results.
Welcome to my problem. Another member told me the issue lies with our google accounts and how it syncs up with the market.
I have tried the other methods deleting cache / signing in and out etc. to no avail.
Only solution is to factory reset. Sad thing is it has happened to me 3x in the past 5 days.
I only hope for a solution to this soon.
3 times, that is scary.
Something has surprised me when I upgraded my phone to the new Galaxy S 2 from HTC HD 2 running an Android rom. When I introduced the google account it automaticaly pointed me all the aplications that I had installed in the old phone (free or paid) and give me an easy option to install all quickly. They were identified as my aplications, even they were not installed.
Is this funtion present here? It will remember what aplications I had installed in the transformer before or I will need to look for all of them again?
solution to download apps
press on apps on the home screen. then press on market. this will get you started click on sign in at top right of screen. it should automatically do a sign in with your google account. then go from there
Ok so I have a HTC G2 (Desire/Vision). I decided that i finally wanted to root it and go all out. So I did the permaroot and installed the newest version of Clockworkmod no problem. I then flashed the CM 7.03 rom. Booted up, everything looked good. I then flashed the newest version of gApps. It asked me to sign in and everything was fine. The final step I took was flashing the G2-Fast kernel (1.9ghz OC). So when i boot up my phone, google attempts to back up all my apps via the market. There was around 100 apps downloading. So I left it there over night. This morning i check it, the last 10 apps or so were unsuccessful. I kept trying to reinstall apps but nothing. I also tried new or different apps but all come up as "Download Unsuccessful". Since then I've tried just about everything to fix it. clearing cache/data, reflashing, superwipe, sobe's method, signing into to GTalk, toggling 2G. I figured I try a new rom. So far I've flashed meXdroidMod and MIUI, but same result. Everything is fine but market doesn't want to work. I'm contemplating reloading my old ROM that i backed up once i get home. Anyone have any ideas? I pray to the gods of XDA.
I don't have much experience with your particular phone buy there has been a small epidemic of your issue on droid x running Gingerbread. It appears to be a disconnection of the google account with the market. It always appears to happen after a data wipe and need to reinstall apps. Sometimes you can still push apps from the Internet market to the phone, sometimes not. In a few cases it resolves by unmounting the sd card and downloading. Once download works then ok to remount. Besides those lucky few, everyone else has to wait it out. Even sbf does not fix it.
FORTUNATELY every case I know of resolved itself spontaneously in about 24hrs give or take. I found at least one case via google on a Thunderbolt so I know it can happen to other phones. Also if you have more than one android device on the same account all of them are affected. Good Luck
It has happened twice to me. Because of this I now keep copies of my most important apps on my sd card.

hi there im hoping someone out there can help.
i have an m8 which i rooted last month after rooting i quickly decided that it wasnt something i would actually get the use from and so unrooted it and restored the factory rom. since then ive been plagued with rcp errors when using the play store. sometimes clearing data and caches works but other times its days later before i can install the apps i wanted.
after hours online and more hours playing around with the phone a realized that when i go to settings/apps/googleplayservices all options are greyed out, it seems like the app has been disabled somehow and dosent seem to be a way of re-enabling it finding it in play store it allows me to open it and gives me the option to disable it from there but even when clicking it it dosent seem to have an affect. im hoping that by rooting it and unrooting i i havent screwed something up.
Hi,
I need to know which M8 you have. There are seperate sections for each model/carrier. Then I can point you to a place to ask for help. ?
Let me start off by saying Im not a n00b at this stuff by any means...I did however decide to go cell phoneless for a couple years, so Ill admit Im probably way behind on everything, but I usually dont have any problems. I got my S5 brand new around Christmas, it had 4.4.4 already loaded on it. I decided instead of going crazy like I did with my GS2 and Vibrant, wanting to customize every aspect of it, Id keep it simple, root it, debloat it myself and be done with it. I rooted it no problem, but everytime I rebooted my phone Google Maps and S Health would force close repetitively, until I went into the priv-app folder and reinstalled Health Services and same with Google Maps. Theyd work fine until I rebooted then it was a rinse was repeat situation every time. I updated to Lollipop through Odin, Rooted it, same issue, same 2 apps. While its not The worst problem to have, it is very tedious. So for the time being, Im unrooted, and I really hate the 734 apps sprint preloads on their phones, and Id like to change a couple things in the build.prop, but Im going with the less annoying option for now. Anyone else have a similar or even the same issue?
Also I guess I should mention Ive tried doing a full Factory Reset, wiped cache and dalvik, and before I have time to login to sync my accounts to my phone, if its rooted they force close over and over.

Is this when you are simply rooted? Or after you have debloated? If so, maybe you removed or disabled something important.
I have tried to keep it simple so far as well. I updated to Lollipop OTA. Even though I took the normal OTA update something about the phone was not right. Maybe some old settings or data causing problems. I did a full data wipe and then flashed this stock ROM. It is Deodexed and has a few things removed, but it mostly stock. I also ran the Debload tool included in that thread to rid myself of all of the Sprint apps. The phone has been super stable and smooth.
This happens once its rooted before I remove anything. I learned a long time ago to be careful what I remove, lol. But like I said, once the phone boots up before I even have the chance to set it up S Health and Google Maps force close and continue to do so until I go into the folder I believe its /system/priv-apps/ and reinstall the Health Service and same with Google Maps. and Ive wiped the phone clean, clearing it of any settings. I knew it wouldnt work, but figured I had tried everything else, but I even tried moving them to my external sd. I guess its just one of those things, Ill either figure it out or just keep it unrooted for a while.
That doesnt mean if someone has any ideas I dont want to hear them though.
Well, first of all, sorry for asking this here, but I don't know where else to go. And it's urgent.. Well, for me at least.
You see, I restarted Google Play Store back to the factory settings, and now whenever I try to enter it, everything is just white with nothing in it, there's not even the top icon.. Sometimes shows that circle like it's loading, but most of the times - just white. I tried deleting accounts (it doesn't let me), manually installing the latest GP update (downloaded the apk) and it doesn't work. The Phone is Huawei Y5 II. And the best part is that the phone is not even mine. I have a Windows phone, so that's why I know so little about Android.
Also, as I said the phone is not mine, so reseting it to a factory settings is not an option. As I said, I tried cleaning everything related to google play store and everything else I said before, but.. Good god, I'm so screwed.
