Android Market Fix Found for Droid X

Everyone, If you rooted your DroidX and removed CityID and/or GTalk and found out you can no longer download from the Android Market, heres what I did to fix it.
I searched and searched and found others who provided the stock, untainted .apk files for gtalk and cityId. I saved to pc, transfered to my SD card, then used the file manager to navigate and open them. I selected the manage option and selected " INSTALL "
Once done, I cleared the cash of the Market app, ran it and it worked!!!
I emediatly re-downloaded all my old apps bith free and paid. No problems.
Now I reset my phone to defaults first and then rooted it. I dont see why you would have to do that and i dont see a problem trying it if you phone is not rooted but thats up to you.
I discovered this fix when after the Market issue, i tried to install the leaked Froyo installer ZIP and kept getting an error refering to CityID.
Bassically it was saying it was checkeing for an update and files related to CityID and since mine where missing, it wouldnt install.
I thought that maybe this was also to blame for the Market download issue. Sure enough my inkling was right and now my phone is fixed.
FYI, if yo dont have CityID and/or GTalk installed, then the Froyo update wont install. Leaked or otherwise that I know of.
So if you had my problem, gve it a try. If for some reason you android market doesnt download, try replacing or re-installing the .apk files I attached and see if it fixes it.
Post here if you discover anything or need help.
Im not a programmer, just a PC Tech, so if things go wrong, sorry, I dint make you do it.
These attached files are for the DROID X.
WHy Google hasnt said anything about this is beyond me, but im sure they have known all along.
Cheers Android world, and Google, your welcome, i just may have saved you mucho customers. Enjoy.

Rom Manager Killed my G-Tablet

I downloaded Rom Manager thinking it would help with Udated TNT-Lite roms. To my suprise it killed my tablet. Now I have to start all over again. Can some one tell me if I have to rebuy all of my work apps, I.E. -Touchdown, Quick Office.

You won't have to rebuy your apps. They are attached to your Google account not your device. DON'T USE ROM MANAGER TO FLASH ROMS. It doesn't play nice with our tablets. In Rom Manager if you scroll to the bottom of the first page then you can flash an alternate recovery. The bekit 0.8. You can download with Rom Manager just don't flash roms or flash the current recovery
Thanks, I am going to Flash the Updated TNT. 4.1 and see how that runs. But when I flashed my original tnt 2.2 the most of the market was gone. Do I need to do the market fix again. It is still in my .apk folder
You will probably need to do the market fix again and I would wipe/data cache if you coming from 2.2 to 4

[Q] Market not working: "Download failed", tried everything.

I know that there are tons of threads about this but none of them have helped. My market just will not work. It shows it downloading, then displays the message "Download failed" for a split second and disappears.
I have an HTC Desire (BravoC/CDMA) with the latest version of CyanogenMod 7 Nightly and ClockworkMod 2.5.0.9 for recovery. I also have Firerat's Custom MTD Partition. Details and links to all these can be found in my signature.
I feel like I've tried everything. Uninstall updates, Installed latest GApps, Installed old versions of GApps, Installed leaked versions of Gapps, cleared cache, formatted device.
This has been happening since the new market website was released. It really sucks, I can't update any apps or download any new apps.
If anyone can offer any help or suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you
Try removing SD card then try again. I had the same problem with my galaxy s I removed SD card backup on PC then I formatted it put it back in and market works perfect, don't ask me why but this worked for me
Sent from my Ideos using XDA App
a little weird thing i noticed is,if i have checked the box that allows applications to be download to the external(Apps2sd) whatever i try to download, will be resulted with Unsuccessful. When i unchecked it, my downloads were successful.
See if you have it checked.
I discovered that it was a problem with the CSC file. I had exactly the same issue with a 'mixed up' firmware. Download would not work at all from the market. Anyhow, I flashed the phone (galaxy s) with a different CSC file and the market started downloading.
the only thing I had changed was that file.
So u may want to consider that Hope this helps.
I think there is also a possibility of going to applications --> market, and then stop & clear data.
same situation here...
re-flash the rom and market won't download anything.
But it's strange that I can install apps from web market.
i know i'm at the wrong thread but could somebody help me pls with sgs gingerbread im stuck at on command where it is saying that busybox is not a valid command and thats its not recognized
Thanks for all the suggestions guys, after some time I have discovered what was causing the market issue. It was the Firerat Custom MTD Partition Mod the whole time. Apparently the new version of the market deals with downloads a little differently now and doesn't get along with Firerat's mod.
So now the waiting game begins for a new update from Firerat.
Hi,
NOt a solution, but I found a workaround for this issue on my phone.
I am using Hyperdroid GBX V8 on my HTC HD2 now. From last 2 days I was struggling with this problem. I tried all solutions I found with google. Clearning everything and Reflashing, clearing the market and caches for other apps, reflashing, unmount/mount SDCARD and so on, smaller bigger recovery partition, without EXT3/4 partition.
Still the problem exist on the phone. But I found a workaround. Logon to market.android.com using your google id and password, select the app you want to install and click install. if your phone is up and live, it will be installed in a few seconds.
In other words, pull doesnt work, but push works .
Thanks.

[Q] Can't download from app market - and no backup!?!

Hi all...I hope someone can help with my problem.
Background: After my stock phone 'crashed' last week I have spent a few days on the forum's and have learnt how to fix it.... First I created a goldcard and recovered the device using a stock WWE ROM (updated device using the PB.zip method). This all seemed fine, so then decided to use enrevoked3 to root....this went fine and I ended up with rooted version of a stock WWE ROM (I think?). It wasn’t until I decided to install a custom ROM (starting with a backup) that I found I couldn’t download anything from the app market!
I thought it was unrevoked that had caused the problem so re-flashed the WWE ROM, but found I still had the same issue (an no longer a rooted device ).
After researching on the forums it looks like I’m missing the gtalk.apk which is used by the app store (does this mean the WWE ROM I have is not up to date or complete?) However, this isnt so much of a problem if you reinstall the gtalkservices.apk, but after trying 3 different apk files from 3 different threads on this subject I still am unable to download anything from the app store (the apk's wont install and just come up with an error - 'application wont install' - also I tried this on the phone when it was rooted and after I reflashed back to the WWE ROM)
Can anyone suggest how I fix this?? I dont have a stock ROM that I can flash back to and I didnt have a backup of my original ROM as I hadn't expected to need it (as before last week my phone was 02 stock).
As a thought I wonder if I re-root with unrevoked and then installed a custom ROM (not the WWE ROM I currently have, something like Cyanogen or Miui) that maybe this would solve the problem assuming the custom ROM I installed included all the relevant gtalk apk’s etc??
I have tried to find the solution without posting another thread, but none of the other threads I have read seem to cover the same issue (most of the solutions are either re-flash your previos ROM, which I cant do, or install the apk, which doesnt seem to work..)
any and all help much appreciated
apart from step 5...this seems to have worked...hope it helps someone else one day ;-)
1) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>google services framework>clear data
2) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear cache and force close
3) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear cache and clear data
4) Reboot phone
5) Open and sign out of GTalk, then re-open and sign in.
6) Open Market and accept agreement. Let it load your apps. Close Market.
7) Go to market.android.com and sign in. Go to My Market Account>Settings tab>Edit>Nickname your phone and click Update.
8) Install an app from market.android.com.
