[Q] Market Cannot Download Apps - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just unlocked the bootloader and rooted my Nexus S. I flashed Cyanogen 7 and it worked fine. I later flashed to Blandroid and then my market was not working properly. I tried to reflash the gapps but it didn't work. I tried flashing to stock, it didn't work. I tried wiping everything, clearing caches, etc, nothing is working.
When I try to download an app it says, "download was unsuccessful, please try again." HOWEVER, if I go to the Android Market website, I can install apps to my phone fine.
Does anyone have any ideas?

same problem here, solution would be great. I can't download anything from the market.

install this app and then start it hit the menu button and select Use WiFi or Download using Mobile network-depend what u want to use.
It should help u

Wouldn't install

Go to manage applications > market > uninstall updates. That should fix it.

Already tried that. One person said I should try reformatting the usb storage. What do you think?

[Q] Market Download Unsuccessful

I posted this over in the android general section. Hoping someone over here might see it since its on my Infuse.
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.
Your external SD card is causing issues with the mounted filesystem.
Try backing up everything that's on the card in your pc first, and then format the card. See if your purchases load then...

Tried it to no avail. Formatted the internal sd card as well. still nothing. Thanks for the idea.

Just tried that and it didnt work. Downloaded GTG's ultimate unbrick to go back to complete stock. Still not downloading. I have no idea what else i could possibly do.
Try to set up a new account and see if you can down load things through that.

Im able to download everything else just fine with the same account. Its only ADW for some reason.
And of course im still waiting for google to get back to me.
Dont know why. But it just decided to download all on its own. Thanks for all the suggestions.

It takes some time to authorize a purchase sometimes. I bought Launcher Pro, and it said "authorizing" and didn't download. I went to bed and when I woke up it had downloaded.

That was the first thing I tried and it didn't work. I ended up using the back to stock program. Now I have the agonizing pain of redoing my entire phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA Premium App
did you install a second launcher (like launcher pro) and delete tw3 before installing 4.5?
I did those to steps and I have had little issue with tw4.5.
The only issue so far was yesterday, I tried dropping some apps from the app drawer onto the home screen. Each time I did this my phone did a soft reboot, after pulling battery and rebooting several times it was still an issue. So I cleared defaults for tw and ran launcher pro and everything was fine, I switched back to tw and the issue was resolved. Not sure what caused it, but clearing data/defaults seemed to do the trick.

what rom/kernel? there seems to be an incompatibility with entropy's kernel on gb for me. if you have root explorer installed you can navigate to the /system/app directory and remove it but only if you have another launcher installed. if you cant launch apps (mine showed the app drawer as blank) you can use the search key to find apps.
What I did is flash tw4.zip through CWM. Then download TW4 manager then update the latest stable version. Everything worked after that. Widgets and all

Google Wallet Reset Hangs

Installed Google Wallet with the wallet installer. I can't seem to get the app to reset as it hangs at 96% and stays there. I tried closing the app and opening it but it attempts to reset as I open it and it gets stuck at 96%. Anyway to fix this?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I have the same problem. However I get to 97% and it just hangs. Anyone else experience this?
I have. Usually it stops 3 under the target number. I then kill the wallet process and clear it data under applications. Never had a problem when flashing after doing those steps

I just tried this. Now Wallet can't seem to set up my device. It just force closes after trying to set up for a while.
Weird. Have you restarted since resetting it? Are you trying to re activate it on the same rom or have you flashed a new one?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I had same problem with it hanging at 97%. I ended up restoring my build.prop edits back to Galaxy Nexus, rebooted, and then reset google wallet. It then reset fully. See if it works for you.

Same rom. I'm trying to reset it completely without hanging. :/
You never get it to reset "completely" the progress bar will never get to 100 percent. This has been an issue since wallet was first made available to verizon through the hack. By resetting in wallet and clearing the data it actually does reset. If you want to make sure it has completed just go to the wallet website and check that your phone is no longer authorized for your cards

Yup! Running the installer works! I just have to reset my Wallet now. Hopefully it wont hang again. :/
Alright! It worked!
To anyone else that runs into this problem.
1) Close Google Wallet through the multitask window.
2) Clear data
3) Run Google Wallet installer again
4) Your device should be setup
5) Reset app!

Clarification question before I switch to try a different ROM.
Would step 6 then be restore build prop and step 7 reflash new rom? Also, do you backup wallet in Tibu and run the steps above or do you not even bother and just uninstall and rerun the wallet installer after loading a new rom?
Use the installer or the zip flashed in recovery. Never backup wallet in TB

Yes. Although I believe it's optional you can restore your build prop. Then flash your home.

Please help me!
Odin flash your stock 2.3.5 and delete cache & data/ factory reset before and after the flash.
Then root.
Then restore only the apps you downloaded from app store using titanium backup. Don't restore any system apps.
Do some homework on deleting the tethering system provision app because that error means it has other dependencies most likely.

If you Odin back to stock all the system apps would be restored as if it were brand new from the manufacturer. You must be doing something wrong.

I searched other forums and tried their solutions but still no success. I cleared cache and data, uninstalled updates,forced close the app, changed my account, changed the rom I was using and rebooted my phone. But none of these helped me. Please give me a solution !
