[Q] I Cant download or install from market, all of a sudden...please help - Android Apps and Games

I cant download or install anything from the market. This just started happening within the hour.
It acts like it begins the download, then nothing.
this is extremely frustrating. anyone have anything on it?? how to fix, happening to you?
thank you

Same for me. Maybe the servers are in maintenance.
For the moment I think that all we have to do is wait and and see.
I'll get more concerned if it's still not working after 24h...

i can download anything except Gapps...
EDIT: Im getting a force close, a vending error...

I'm also having an issue starting today with downloads/installs using AppBrain and the stock Market place
I have a Samsung Vibrant running Bionix-V 2.2
Seems like only certain apps won't download (like Google Maps), I just downloaded an update for Mixzing though and it got installed
It just looks like it downloads and then it goes back to saying "Update" or stalls at the end of the download and doesn't install

Just thinking: maybe it has to do with the Google announcement that'll happen today. It is rumored that they would introduce the Android Market website besides Honeycomb ... So they may be doing tests or else that could have an impact on the market?

Same thing on my end.

pissing me off, it's been acting up all day.

We haven't heard anything about a market update
EDIT: They are working on an in browser android market so that might be the cause of the issue.

Wifi download didnt work, edge it worked. Then tried again and it worked. Servers maybe

Been trying on wifi and 3g, no go. No application can install/update. Instead, it "pretends" it is installed (shows in my Downloads/My Apps section), allows me to comment/rate, but still reports "Free" instead of "Download/Update"

Android Market acting weird -- is it a precursor to tomorrow's event?
We've gotten a bunch of tips in the past hour or so that the Android Market is doing weird things, and we can corroborate this on our Nexus S here -- we're just not able to download stuff. Apps look like they're starting to download, then they suddenly vanish into thin air without a trace and without an error message. Our Droid 2 is still fully functional, though, so this definitely isn't consistent; really, we're just wondering if this outage might have something to do with tomorrow's Android-themed festivities at the Google campus, which -- naturally -- we'll be attending. So how is everyone faring out there tonight?

Hi, you may try to clear Market cache in app settings. I used to solve my problem in that way.

My stock froyo facebook app was working perfect and today will not fetch data. Even after I cleared it and re-logged in.

I think this is a problem on their servers (Facebook) as I have the same issue on 5.0.7.1 and from what I have found it randomly fixes itself after a few days somehow in most cases. First time it happened to me as well.
The message that I get is something like "An error had occurred while fetching data [null]"
Do you get a similar message?
ye same problem for me as of last night ~10pm GMT
I also have this problem on CM 5.0.6
Probably facecbook issue.
I get that as well but i'm on CM507 and it was working!
Yup!
Same error code!
Thanks
I was about to reload some stuff
Doesn't seem to be wanting to fetch data. It's a facebook issue. I really do hope a new optimised app for froyo will be out soon, and bring more goodies to the table. This app is starting to feel old (not to mention the bugs)

Yeah, defiantly seems to be a server issue on their side, nothing much you can really do other then try touch.facebook.com and use that as a bookmark and place it on your home screen or something.
Same here and I'm on 5.0.6 and I also think it's a facebook issue.
Side note: This maybe old but anyone seen the option to 'download facebook for Nexus One' at the bottom of the mobile site? it just takes me to a blank page.
Yeah same issue as of a few hours ago on the stock leaked FroYo. Glad it's not just me, lol. The weird thing is the widget is updating!
good thing we have flash to access the real website
I think its a mobile facebook issue.. My gf's Cliq and a buddy's BB Curve have been having issues since last night as well as my N1
Yeah it must be a facebook issue. I am having the same error on my froyo nexus one, and my 2.1 htc hero. Very wierd that the widget still updates. Come one facebook, release a REAL facebook app for android.
Possibly because of the new privacy changes.
Whew - someone else having the same problems!
I installed Froyo last night and Facebook worked fine for the first few hours, but starting late last night it's been having the "Fetching" problems.
Go figure?
*sigh* I bet this has something to do with it:

I am also having this error. Very annoying!

Interesting.
Seriously hope this improves FB for Android.
Its doo doo balls right now.
Doing the same thing for my girlfriend and a friend with Droids so it's Facebook.
I surmise there's an update coming soon for the official app that uses the new Facebook Android APIs including the new facebook graph API.
Let's hope they include chat soon too...
Same problem. Installed FB Touch as replacement meanwhile.
I also have problems with my email app. It force closes easily. Annoying.

[Q] Words with Friends problem

I flashed a new Rom last night and WWF was working fine for me. I was playing back and forth with my wife for a few hours. Then it quit working. It starts to load, then quits. It goes to a screen showing the upside down android with link. Click link and it says Web page down. I uninstalled the game and then installed it again. ?Same thing. Trying to figure out if it is a WWF problem or some thing with the Rom.
My question is, anyone else having problems with Words with Friends?

If you happen to have AdFree Android installed, I remember reading somewhere that this messes up Words With Friends. Probably because of their awful post-move full screen ads.
The rom has adds removed. For what ever reason words with friends doesnt work properly without adds. you need to delete the host file on your phone using a file manager

You my friend are a genius, I looked at the specs of the ROM and there it was. My last rom had where you could turn it off. I just gotta find the option for that for this rom.
THANK YOU
Actually if you do a Google search, there are instructions on editing it to enable just words with friends. Other ads are still mostly blocked.

I actually just discovered Wordsmith, a similar game to WWFriends. Seems to work better and more stable. Only thing is it's not cross platform with iOS.

[Q] Market not showing installs

Quick question. My transformer installs apps from the market fine but when im navigating around the market looking around the apps ive already dont show as 'installed'. Instead it shows 'free' or the price of the app. When i click on the app it shows as installed and it also shows the installed apps within the 'my apps'......is this normal????
Anyone else got this?
I have the same "issue".
same here.
I have it as well. I presume it's intended/design flaw.
same thing we me. i suspect they still need to squish this bug.
maybe 3.1 will have this fixed.
Thanks for confirming this, i though i was going mad. I half remember reading a review of honeycomb and it included this issue but i cant find it now. Its a hard one to Google as it gets mixed with people who cant install apps or cant see apps in the market.
I remember hearing that 3.1 would fix this problem.
Hmm i thought i was going nuts when downloading apps and sometimes they dont show up anywhere, hope 3.1 irons this out

agree, very annoying...
I had the same problem, I did a system reset and it all started to work also make sure you do not uncheck the restore device settings. I think that was the trick for me.

[Q] What causes the newer netflix apk releases to crash after login?

Sorry if this topic has been brought up before but I've been looking around and haven't been able to find much as far as netflix support on the Charge. So far my experience with all the various mods that have been released is that they simply don't work. The closest I have gotten to one working was the mod by ften for v1.2.1 which allowed me to log in and pick a movie to stream, upon which I got the 2005 error. I have heard that this error has since been fixed for several devices with the newer 1.2.2 mods, however all of them seem to have restored the initial issue of the app crashing after attempting to log in. My question is could this issue be caused by the same problem that caused the first apk release to crash? And if so, could one of the new modded apk's be modified in the same fashion as ften's initial 1.2.1 crash fix to create a fully functional apk for the Charge?
I have an evo and they recently updated the application. I had to uninstall, reboot, and then reinstall the Netflix application. Otherwise I was getting the same problem you're getting now.
Maybe give that a shot?
PS I know nothing about the modified Netflix apk or what the first problem was that caused that problem. Just trying to be helpful.

I have tried that method with several different apk's and haven't had any luck so far. Like I said the 1.2.1 crash fixed apk was the only one that let me get passed the login screen. Thanks for the input though it is appreciated!
I am pretty sure you will need to be running a gingerbread based rom for netflix to work correctly.

[Q] cm9 problem downloading apps

I just downloaded this rom, quite frankly I was going to wait for a normal release but I couldn't. Wait. I added the Google addon with the newest market. I'm on tmous. When I download apps it stays on the download screen without downloading the app, just preparing to dl. Any idea how to fix this?
Im assuming you mean cm7 selfKANG 9. Try restarting phone it worked for me it hasnt happened for a while though. I thinks just the newer version of the market

I believe I remember seeing this issue reported in the big thread over in the Development section. If I recall correctly, you should try clearing data for your Market app. I believe the process is something along the lines of:
Settings --> Manage Applications --> Open up the entry for Market app --> Clear data + Clear Cache
For some reason, there were also reports that making sure that your Date/Time settings are correct, and logging into Google Talk beforehand with your Google Account would help with Android Market problems.
Hope one of these helps fix you up. If not, I recommend searching the thread over in the Development forum. Remember to search before posting in there-- it's already a huge thread, and people may not appreciate answering something that's already been covered before multiple times. Good luck!
I cleared the cache and also signed into google talk so I'm not sure which it was but it worked. Thanks!
