As of yesterday, none of the apps I download from either the marketplace or amazon will install. They will download without problem, but they won't actually install.
Anyone else having this problem or know of a fix?
What does the error log say?
it just says install unsuccsessful

go to applications>Manage Applications>Market>uninstall updates and clear data and cache. then go back into market and sign back in. hopefully that will fix it.
This happened to me, I had to clear some space on hard drive or whatever you want to call it? (Solid state memory, SSD, I'm really not sure) It totally fixed it.

how did you fill up 30 gb so quick lol ?

lol wow. that does stink. guess thats good to know.

My medical school has lectures online. I d/l them on my desktop computer, transfer them over USB, and watch them on my xoom. I fill up space pretty quickly. Each organ system is only 2 weeks, so I also empty space pretty quickly. This also means I'm waiting pretty impatiently for SD support. WTF is the hold up?
The xoom has been clutch for watching these vids while there's something on TV or while I'm cooking dinner or eating breakfast or.... you know, trying to do stuff that people with free time have the luxury of doing. Sigh....
I had a update today say declined? Does anyone know what may have caused that?

its because you touch yourself. Or because you bought that app in the amazon store and not the Google store. Google only updates apps bought from its store.

AFTER TRYING TO UNINSTALL THIS YOU WILL NEED TO RESTART TO REGAIN YOUR 110 MB INTERNAL SPACE.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7047142#post7047142
got it to install, but had to uninstall a ton of stuff to get the 99 Mb apk installed..
Only quick race works now, after playing a race it prompts you to buy the full version, you need to be on verizon to buy the full one apparently for the moment since it was ripped from Droid X and gives an error.
To top it all off, the quick race isnt even that good...meh. For 100 Mb you'd think it would be better than this. Hope its just cause its a pre-release, cause they hyped this up a lot.

I believe that can be done if you have root. Somehow you can force it to install all your apps that way.

worked like a charm, but the game was all messed up and almost everything was black...
finally, i installed it with a rooted + a2sd htc desire. can get in the game. but the color is a shXt. all black besides two hands and some labels.
by making enough room for it to install... Yes this app does install and play however you can't see anything when you race so for others who are unable to figure this out IMO i'd just give up until a playable demo comes out.
you can force A2SD normal froyo way and it installs but says I need to connect to verizon to play...
no problem in installing {A2SD},but all black,uninstalling right away
I caught one with 190MB application storage which is unacceptable for most.
I use MT4 and NS instead of nexus one because of that. Don't ever think app2SD helps because it won't work when the phone is in USB mass storage mode or memory card is removed.
I had about the same until I started adding some of my apps to the phone. I can't even add all my apps because of the internal storage. Can't wait for root and some Roms (CyanogenMod 7).

Man this thing is pissing me off. I can't even install half the apps I had installed on my original Vibrant.
T-mobile should give us options on installing apps as soon as we turn it on. They just throw **** we won't use on the phone and call it a day. Now what if we had no devs nor root or anything like that? Look at what we would be stuck with. In that case people would just return the phone.

Cool I rooted it and have Titanium Backup installed. Just no CWM yet for ROM Manager.
I have all my appz installed with no issue... honestly 16gb onboard made the vibrant slow. im glad to have less... and I can install as many apps to my sd card as i want.
I see someone has said they have over 500mb of internal, how is that possible and why is mine not the same?
I'm on live chat with T-Mobile right now. The lady just told me...
"Okay, thank you for that information. There definitely seems to be an issue here. I am looking further into this"
So obviously there is a problem

Ok cool, let us know what's going on. I have a total of 539MB internal storage.
Specs says 1GB! I read that off phonedog I think.
"You should definitley have more memory than what you are showing. I can get you the manufacturers information. Since it is a Samsung device their support teams will definitely be able to assist you a little better than us at the moment.
_Jessica C: I know that you don't want to go back to the store, but if there is an issue with the device it may be the best bet since it is a new phone. I can also recommend taking it to a T-mobile direct dealer. They may be able to test your software. They know anything and everything about these phones.
_Jessica C: I do apologize but I am limited with my information at the time."
Since it's a new phone she doesn't have all the info, etc. At least they know there is a problem now.
I'm going to go to a t-mobile store and talk to them so I'll let you know what they say
LOL
i doubt that a t mobile rep would know anything and everything about the phone.
Ok, I just got off with a T-Mobile rep and she said the internal memory should have a total of 512MB. ...sucks! But good thing we have a 16GB sdcard.
^I was told 512 ram and 1024 rom. Plus 512 makes no sense when dude a couple posts up said he had 539mb available..sorry not dude above, you said it yourself! lol

Ok, I can't stand my phone to be on stock so I think I will be going back to my MT4G.
I'll be back when Rom Manager supports the phone, full recovery and some nice ROMs starts flying in. (I WANT CM7!)
...love the screen though! Big difference when coming from the MT4G. :|
I will be checking this section and will be posting as well.

Just a few bloatware things, probably 10 or 15 apps.
There's a nice little app with no name, sitting on top of my apps list with an impressive array of permissions. It appears to be a system app, so likely not malicious.
Anyway, just curious to know what it is and if it's safe to freeze.

It does seem to be a core Android process given the long list of permissions & reckon it wouldn't be safe hence to freeze it. It always shows as 0.00B though.
After reading this I checked mine and confirm mine is also having this app. Don't have a clue what it is and what it does.
I may wrong but I don't think it was in GB.

Will someone just remove it already, and get it over with? Lol.. but, make sure you can get into recovery and have a backup if something goes wrong...
I had a weird update available on Play Store today while I was working my way back to CM10... for Play Services or something like that - the icon was a small puzzle piece with play store colors.. but I did not update it and now I can't find it on the play store anywhere. True, we have a GoogleServicesFramework.apk, but I have never seen an update for something like that before.. and the 4 reviews that were there mentioned that it was a virus or something... oh well, probably unrelated.

Hilarious - People fooling around with the reviews
But seems like a legit Google thing.
Every time I'm scrolling through the market looking at apps, it kicks me back to the top of the list after viewing an app. Its really frustrating when you scroll through 50 apps trying to find one you want, click on one and decide you want to go back and keep looking and then it makes you start all the way over. It didn't use to do it like that until market got changed to play store. I've tried many different ROMS with no other outcomes. Anyone know a way to change this? Its really annoying.

It's the way Google have made it so until they decide they want to sort it, it will always be like that.
''Evil corrupts the mind of the weak but fails to feed off the mind of the strong''
Funny, though. The old Market did not kick back to the beginning of the list, but Google Play does...ironic.
But Google must have a reason for doing thing, because it definitely is not a RAM issue.
Side note: If possible, access Google Play from a PC, and push the download to the specified device(s). It makes life MUCH easier. Trust me on that.

It makes me question Google. Why would they even think someone would want to scroll through 20 apps, click one, hit back and have to start all over. Its the main reason I barely have any apps on my phone now. Oh and thanks for the tip. Haven't thought of that.

Yes, that was an utterly TERRIBLE decision/oversight/whatever by Google. Especially when I am about 120 apps down the list.

I'm not sure it'd work for you but you could try downloading Dumpster from Google play. The only thing is idk if it recovers deleted files or it recovers files deleted after the app is installed.

[GUIDE] Internal Memory Data Recovery - Yes We Can!
sent from my HAMMERHEAD neXus
The first thing to do would be to STOP USING THE PHONE. The more you use it, the higher the chance of the data being overwritten and thus unrecoverable. Remember, "deleting" something only marks it as available on the disk/flash memory.
http://www.icare-recovery.com/free/android-data-recovery-freeware.html
As above, if you carry on using the phone there's a chance you might write over the deleted file, any chance of recovery then becomes much more difficult, maybe even impossible. Try some of the software that's been mentioned above, if the files not been overwritten you should have a good chance of recovery.

correct as the past few posts say if you havnt overwritten that area of your internal storage where the video was saved you should no problem using some recovery tools to get the deleted information. I work as a security analyst doing forensics and e-discovery. I recommend the program r-studio to recovery deleted information. you will have to pay for it unless you can find a free copy on the internet.. lol but you can also get a trial of it which will let you recovery files smaller than like 1mb which might not help you but you can at least use the trial to determine if the video is recoverable.
You can also use diskdigger. The free version should do what you need it to

Thank all of you for your help. I tried several tools, with varying results.
Sadly I can't seem to get anything watchable back. I got a couple of bruises and my jaw still kinda hurts, but it's nothing permanent.
I got an app that can undo removal of photos and videos for the next time something like this happens, also I should be more carefull not to put myself in harms way again. People are unpredictable.
