Device not showing in market solution - G Tablet General

After letting mt GTab sit, I noticed that after 48-52 hrs My GTab would show back up under my Market in devices.
I did another one of the market fixes and it disapeared again. Decided to download a free app and let it sit again.
Another 48-52 hrs later it shows again.
Seems as though doing a market fix removes your device from their server then it just needs time to locate your device again.
Not sure if others have found this out on thier own, but thought I'd post for those who are still worried about the issue.

[Q] market suddenly missing apps

running tnt lite 4.0 as of yesterday with market fix. all was working normally this morning. downloaded and installed quite a few apps and live wall papers. this afternoon most of the apps are missing and i can only get 1 live wallpaper. all the other stuff is missing. even the stuff i have already downloaded is missing. performed market fix over and over still same thing. the market seems to be working fine just most of it is gone. anybody got any ideas? am i looking at a complete rom reinstall?
It's happened to me a couple of times...
If you have Titanium Backup installed, just load it up and let it populate the app list...
After that, the Market seems to recognize everything that is installed right away...
It does eventually seem to come back on it's own -- but TB is the only way I've found of "forcing" it to happen sooner...
nope that didn't help. still missing most of the apps. the weird thing is that they were all there this morning and i haven't done anything that would have borked the market.
something else too. the market makes me "accept the terms" the 1st time i load it after a reboot. rebooted 3 time in a row and its the same every time.
Have you tried doing the Market fix again? I've had to do it several times. Even after it's done there are a few apps hat never show up, but most do.
You're talking about apps you've already downloaded from the market so I would definitely try the market fix again and see if that works.

That usually happens when you "Clear Data" on the Market app -- but you say you haven't done that? If so, sounds like the flag isn't being set/stored when you click accept -- so perhaps permissions are borked?
Maybe try rebooting into recovery and doing a "Fix Permissions" and "Wipe Dalvik Cache", then go back into normal boot, accept the terms again and see what happens...
yep done that too. at least a dozen times. and i know i am doing it correctly because it worked the first time a week ago when i rooted and intalled tnt lite the first time and again on saturday when i installed tnt lite 4.0. the market fix worked both times with no issues. now almost all the apps are missing. there are no free live wall papers listed and only 1 pay live wall paper listed. that and only 1 app shows up in the featured list when i launch the market.
i am really trying to avoid a complete reinstall of tnt if i can help it but i guess if i have to then i have to.

yea done that as well. same thing. its very strange. i have been at this for hours yesterday combing through the forums looking for an answer with no luck. i found all of the suggestions mentioned above and tried them with no success.
Ahhh...TnT 4 introduced the problem. I just read in another thread that v4 includes the Data2Loop hack and lots of people are now reporting this very issue...
Will update with the link to the thread which includes remedies...
Update: Link to thread detailing issue -- may want to just jump to the end and work backwards
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004
hmm.... well there it is. thanks man. will revert back i guess. 4.0 sure was fast though.
This happened on my "stock" Zpad. I woke up one morning and it was like it was partially defaulted. I had to accept the terms again and some apps were like they were only newly installed (eg asking for default actions). It was like some database go corrupted overnight (by itself).
That was all about a week or two ago and I haven't had the same problem since.
I began to have market "re do" issues several days ago (On tnt 3.1.2) and have had to fix it several times a day. I think Google has something to do with it. I turned off all Google Sync to Gmail and since last night, market is sticking again.
I have been using it without any problems and suddenly all the apps are gone from the market download and for others the icon is not working anymore.
I use the website Market now. I notice more apps on the website than in the market application. If I download an app from the website it puts it in the "downloaded" part of the market app anyway, so all the updates happen normally. This works for me and I don't have to worry about re-doing the market fix.
Cheers, Mal.

Market issue

so here is my problem. just out of the blue, market has stopped letting me update any of my apps. i am able to see all the apps, mine as well as any other app on market, however, as soon as i begin the update process, my data connection cuts out and the update fails.
i have tried a multitude of different roms/kernels today and no luck. i tried clearing markets cache and still no luck. even on a clean install of any rom, i still have the same issue, market will not let me update my apps, nor can i download any for that matter.
i have finally given up after tinkering with this issue since 10am. are there any wise thunderbolt savants out there that can shed some much appreciated light on my new dilemma?
i dont think it is any particular app causing this as when this problem arose, i had not made any changes to my bolt, it was just as if market just decided to give me the finger....all day. also i did try different radios as well and still no change.
the data connection seems fine otherwise, just when the market wants to download, it stops and fails the updates.
thanks a billion bolts in advance, i think my brain is fried from romming all day.

[Q] Can't download/install any market apps

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

Marketplace problems today 5/5/11 anyone else?

"Can't get this information at the moment. Check again in a little while."
When i try to download or update apps.
also get "Can't play try signing in with your Windows Live ID or synchronising again." when trying to stream music with my zune pass
I Rebooted the phone, changed my live ID password, synced phone with Zune, took the battery out of the back, deleted the offending apps (now i cant redownload them and use them get same message), I am doing all these updates via Wifi, the router is about 10 feet from the phone in same room so no connection issues.
It's really annoying me now. I really want to like this OS but all the little bugs like 3rd party live tiles not updating, marketplace bugs, no call duration information in call log etc are starting to wear me down, factory resetting the phone is not a solution, having to reinstall all your apps and resync 10gig of music and files every time this OS has a hiccup is ridiculous.
I am having the same problems with my markeplace ever since I updated my phone this morning, please tell me I wont have to hard reset my phone!!!
It seems to be widespread. I'm hoping for a crazy billing update of some kind

Yeah i have been getting that today also am hoping it goes back to normal soon.
Yeah, I'm having the same problems. Ticking me off because I have two app updates and I want to download Square Off. Its not a bug though since its widespread, MS is probably doing something to the servers.

Microsoft is aware of the problem. Its affecting NoDo builds. They haven't released any fix as of yet. Started five hours ago or so.

Ah well makes me feel better it's not just my phone been stupid.
Marketplace is back up and I'm dowloading all my updates!!
Mines started working again too, yay!
yes i too !!!
i tried to start marketplace but it don't work HELP!!!
It's still not accessible on my phone. Strange thing is, when i use the app Marketplace Search and select an app i'm redirected to the Marketplace site of that app.
I have updated my phone yesterday with the latest security update.
I have problem too. I get try later message.
I have an HTC Arrive which came with NoDo and did not have any trouble today at all.
Mine is fine now, must have been coincidental that the problem started just after I updated.
I've seen this happen a few times in the past. It always seems to go away after a little bit.
I also faced it today morning and rebooted multiple times with no luck. Afternoon it resolved by itself.
I think marketplace was down for a while. It's okay now.
Had same problems til 2pm...Working now

Yes me too, yesterday. Microsoft's resolved then I can accessing now.

[Q] Apps up to date. After reboot it found an update.

Today i faced a problem where i went to the play store and went to my apps and all of the apps were up to date. I rebooted my phone and ''Youtube'' was being updated.
Why did it update after reboot instead of when i went to ''My apps'' in the playstore and everything was up-to-date ?
its normal.
it might of not been available for your phone the first time you checked. when apps are updated, not everyone gets the update right away. your neighbor might see an update for that app while you get the update hours later.
it's normal. That's happened to me pre-nexus 5..might be an availability thing or just need to refresh the connection to tip off the fact that you need the update.
I usually restart my phone at least two times a day just to keep the system running smoothly and make sure apps close out so it's no biggie to me
