[Resolved] [Q] Can't download from Android Market - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
Since yesterday, after I've installed a new Gingerbread custom ROM, I haven't been able to download anything from Android Market with my phone. It just resturn's "Download was unsuccessful. Please try again". I've tried to clear the data from the market app, and login to Google Talk, but it still doesn't work. I've tried to wipe and reflash it, and when I than start the phone, the market will download the first few apps, than it'll give me the download error again. Even my old ROM doesn't download market apps anymore.
It works if I create a new GMail account, but the problem is that I've bought a lot of apps on my GMail account, that I want to use, and now I can't download anything. I think that it's the automatic backup with the Google Account, but I've tried to disable it, and it still doesn't work.
Does anyone know what I should do?
I'm using a HTC Desire HD, and the problem started after I've flashed the RCMix HD v5.9.3 Most Complete Gingersense rom 2.31 CRT ANI. I've used the Android Revolution HD 3.3 before.
Thanks,
Johan
EDIT: It works fine with the official ROM. Seems like I'm stuck with it for now.

Try wiping Dalvik-cache...

Android Market downloading problem

Hi everybody.
After i flashed the new Android Revolution HD cfw onto my dhd, i wasn't able to download anything from the market. I can view everything but every time i try to load something i get an error msg. Loading failed, please try again later...
i tried many things, deleting the market app, clearing the cache, disabling google talk, but nothing seems to work. google isn't a big help either...
i hope that anybody has an idea that might work.
thanks a lot

has you tried to do full wipe (with fullwipe v.03.zip for example..) and then re-flash again?
no, i have not, because i'm afraid of doing the whole setting up thing again... contacts, progs, etc. i thought that there might be a way of correcting the problem without wiping the whole mobile.
i thought a full wipe is not necessary before flashing a whole rom, because it's overwriting your old fw and deleting all the old stuff... hmm does that also delete my clockworkmod? what exactly does that wiping tool delete?
thanks for your answer

I read about fullwipe and performing one now.. hopefully this will work... do i need to flash my radio again, after that?
No you shouldn't need to flash a new radio unless this ROM is giving you issues with the radio you are using, check the Android Revolution post for the recommended radio to use.
ah okay, i ment "should i flash my radio again". i did already flash the apropriate radio...

hey thanks for your help. it's working now

[Q] Market Apps wont download

I am using Coredroid V7.
When I am trying to download apps from the official app market, it doesnt download.
it says downloading then just clears itself out. i try it again it doesnt download it.
i even did a full wipe(1.5 and coredroid wipe) then freshly flashed the rom again, then it doesnt download again.
because of that i even had to RE-root my phone..well that didnt fix it as well..
it worked completely fine in 6.7. can anyone help me whats wrong with it? i even resetted my phone..nothing worked...
im trying to download miren browser..
Wow hmm I had this before. Are you setting up any accounts after flashing? What I mean is once you flash and get to set up tutorial,when it asks about setting up accounts,so u log into Facebook or Google right then?

Well, after the extensive wiping/rerooting/reflashing/reseting you've done, to no avail, maybe it's just the market acting up.
I've run into similar download issues both stock/unrooted and custom/rooted, from time to time. It's usually that stuck progress bar that never seems to move and never finishes, almost always when trying download something that's set to update automatically.
I've also run into specific downloads not kicking in, as you're describing. It usually clears itself up if I just wait a little while and try again.
Not a very specific solution to your problem, but all I'm saying is that after all you've done to "reset," that should have taken care of the problem, if the problem was indeed on your end.
FWIW.

Do a Search for Full Wipe, there is something you can run that just cleans yer device completely. I would try that. Else; I am unsure.
Settings->Applications->Market-> Clear Data/Cache ???
Worked for me =(
It's just a sporadic issue with the Android Market. I have encountered this very same problem and thought it was the rom but never did any reflashing or wiping data/cache but then I would go try to download an app and it would successfully download and install. I think it's an issue with the android market.

Just fyi, I flashed v7 tonight, and installed several apps after the fact, so I can at least assure you that it's but the ROM.
Sent from the computer I carry in my pocket.
Solution kinda
I was having the same problem tried all sorts of wipes to no avail ended up just downloading and installing new cooler looking app market thinking it would solve my problem but it didn't just gave me an error message to go along with it.....so the solution u say......annoyingly simple really reboot into recovery after installing new market clear cache and dalvik cache too just to be sure.
confirmed working as of 5 minutes ago.
with new market
on virtuous unity rom (but I don't see a reason it shouldn't work on most roms with weird market bug)

[Q] Market Download Unsuccessful Problem

I have a similar problem that many people have had with downloading apps from the market, however none of the solutions i have seen work. I purchased ADW Launcher Ex from the market the other day and it wouldnt authorize. I replaced all my billing info and then it authorized fine. I click on the purchased button and it authorizes, then says starting download, but after about 5 seconds it just stops and goes back to the bottom of the "my apps" list. I dont get a notification saying the download was unsuccessful, but when i try to download and install again, it says download unsuccessful and just goes through the same process all over again. Anything and everything else downloads and installs just fine.
I have tried wiping data and cache of the market and download manager.
I have restored my phone using CWM to a previous backup.
I have reinstalled my custom rom.
I tried an alternate rom.
I have reset my phone to factory.
I reinstalled the stock rom.
I tried logging out of and back into Talk.
I added another gmail account as well.
If ANYONE has any other ideas PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know. Stupid google hasnt emailed me back yet, so i figured id probably get more help here anyway. Thanks in advance.

[Q] Market searching!! HELP

I have been using my transformer for 4 months now but ever since i updated to Prime 1.7 my market hasent been working correctly. I cannot search for apps on the market, regardless what i search it always tells me there are no results. I have also tried installing apps from the web market on the tablet but it says installed but it never goes through on the Tab.
I have tried re flashing Prime1.7 and even flashed revolver 2.1 but neither of these have solved the issue. I have also cleared the market cache and data. no change
does anyone know how to fix the issue?
I had problems with market on my desire HD never showing the progress bar properly after doing all usual tricks to no avail I sent a support request from market help and got a standard reply to try clear cache etc... but after a few hours it just started working again. To which I reckon they reset my account to clear the problem, so give that a try as I did much the same as you on the dhd but it never got solved untill I send that help request.
I have tried this but they sent me the solution for android 1.6-2.3. Still have no market but only for apps. books and movies work fine any ideas?
Have you tried using the web market? Go there and make sure your account has the proper device(asus transformer) connected to your account. The marked app only shows apps that are compatible with the associated device.
Yeah I have tried using the online market and my Transformer is on there but twice. Also if i can get a market link to an app and try to download it it notifies me that the app cant be downloaded in my country even though im in the USA. this is a new issue for me because apps that I have downloaded on my G2 have installed fine while my tab is refusing to install
Clean market cache!
Go to applications, look for the market, and press clean market cache. This should help a bit. Also try to install Market Enabler...may/may not work, but it worth the try..
I have cleaned market cache, tried market enabler which doesn't work and even tried the market after a fresh re-install of Prime 1.7
none of it works.
would reverting to stock possible solve the problems?
Well I'd say so...if the issue started when you installed the custom ROM..you should rollback..just make sure to Root the stock rom...
The issue started when I went from went from Prime1.5 to 1.7.
And I didn't do a backup of the stock rom. Where could I find one?

*SOLVED* "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server"

I've had issues with my phone where google services would eat up all my battery like 50%+.. To temp rid of this issue I would freeze google services, then when I wanted to check out the market I would have defrost services and update gmail info to use market. Now I get the issue stated above. Ive read of a youtube trick, but when I click "my channel" it says sign in and add account which sends me back to Add a Google Account.. Are my only options a hard reset?

Factory reset would be the way to go!
I backed up sd card and did a factory reset, when phone rebooted into recover it said E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11. I restarted phone and same issue, not able to connect with market, yet file explorer was able to update by itself? Id like to try the youtube fix, but all i could find was the 2.4.4 version online and when I try to log on it sends me to sync.. Any other options? maybe hard reset??
Hmm.....I'd say GR then go from there.
I performed a one-click, had to download SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_1.5.4.0 after many failed attempts installing stock.. Then flashed vb-fb-build 3 twice consecutively and everything is much smoother Ive been flashing rom after rom etc etc.. So a clean install was good to do finally. Thanks for the help! If anyone has any questions feel free.
