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.

I have been having this issue since oh I say about CM6 Nightlies 8/26-8/27 when the "Market Issue" crept up. And let me say I know that had nothing to do with this ROM per-say. I am using CM6 now on 9-1 nightly...Perhaps someone has\had the same problem.
No matter what I do using AppBrain or just the Market app I keep getting these dam force close on trying to download these 3 updates. 1. Handcent SMS and 2.Droid Battery and 3.Clockwork ROM manager. All of these apps I have removed and re-installed and then tried the market again...Still shows they all 3 need to be updated. Obviously when I am re-installing I am installing the last version I have prior to the updates that both sites say I need. Should I go into manage apps and wack all the updates for all 3 of these apps? Or is there a fix for the market itself? I have removed AppBrain and re-installed but that did not fix the issue either.
Now I have not been wiping anything on these nightlies I might add..And I have never had ANY issues other than the ones mentioned here. I have noticed the GPS issues as a lot of others have. But on 9/1 has ZERO GPS issues and locked in a matter of seconds. Also, I only can get ANY data via WiFi...<---A whole OTHER issue. But I know the fix for that. I just need to have my phone added with my Provider...Which is MetroPCS blah blah. I can get SMS and the Net of course now that there is a nice Proxy Setting which I hope that remains in the final build.
Anywho...Market issues anyone? Is there a way to wack the market.apk and re-install it? I have cleaned cache on just about everything I could think of..Re-set defaults etc on the 3 apps in question. Suggestions?
What I need is
Handcent SMS Version 3.2.9...Again I am NOT able to get to the market and I can't get on WiFi at the moment...
After further investigation ALL I need is Handcent SMS 3.2.9 I have the other versions I have NO idea why it keeps saying that I need to update the other two I have the latest of Gauge Battery Widget and ClockworkROM Manager. Hmmm interesting...

This is a recent and known google problem, not a rom problem. Google's servers have been overloaded, sot his is why the market is not preforming well.
i'm having a similar issue for quite a while now. probably over a month but i've just been dealing with it.
i think it started when i put cy mod 6 on my hero after a complete wipe.
i can not install any apps. from appbrain/market it will go through the dowload process and begin installation. but the installation is always unsuccessful. for almost every app. i've tried restoring from myback up, titanium back up, app saver. nothing works.
i was just about to completely wipe my phone & sd card but thought i'd take a look here first.
any help would be greatly appreciated. =)
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

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.
I've been having this really annoying problem lately, where apps just refuse to finish downloading whenever I'm on 3G. They usually go to maybe 25% or so, then just stop there. I can even have full bars and that happens to me.
Whats weird though is that my internet is just as fast as it should be, especially when I use the browser or anything that involves surfing the internet. I've tried many different roms and no matter what I still get this problem. When I'm on WiFi though the apps update or download just fine.
Anyone know of a fix/ have come across this problem as well?

Since you tried different roms, that would rule out most software issues. Have you tried deleting and reinstalling market? Have you flashed it back to stock and did a master clear? Could possibly be a hardware issue? If its still under warranty, I would flash it back to stock and see about trading it in.
I haven't tried flashing back to stock because I figured, like you said, it may be a hardware issue. But its weird that its only affecting the market though
You never know...its worth a shot. And another thing...if you are performing backups through Titianium Backup...are you backing up and restoring system data? That has also known to cause problems.
The route I would take to troubleshoot this...I would do a flash back to stock and master clear. And do absolutely nothing else to it, just for troubleshooting purposes. That way you know you are starting on a stock fresh clean slate. Get logged into the market and test. If it continues to do it, I would do a warranty exchange. If it fixes it, then you know you have something going on with your configuration or maybe corrupt data.
I have this problem on Wifi when I use the Bill to Account method of payment. If I use my credit card billing, there is no issue. If I want a smooth app purchase from Market using the Bill to method I have to go via 3G. Might not be related, but thought I'd mention it.
Ok so I have a HTC G2 (Desire/Vision). I decided that i finally wanted to root it and go all out. So I did the permaroot and installed the newest version of Clockworkmod no problem. I then flashed the CM 7.03 rom. Booted up, everything looked good. I then flashed the newest version of gApps. It asked me to sign in and everything was fine. The final step I took was flashing the G2-Fast kernel (1.9ghz OC). So when i boot up my phone, google attempts to back up all my apps via the market. There was around 100 apps downloading. So I left it there over night. This morning i check it, the last 10 apps or so were unsuccessful. I kept trying to reinstall apps but nothing. I also tried new or different apps but all come up as "Download Unsuccessful". Since then I've tried just about everything to fix it. clearing cache/data, reflashing, superwipe, sobe's method, signing into to GTalk, toggling 2G. I figured I try a new rom. So far I've flashed meXdroidMod and MIUI, but same result. Everything is fine but market doesn't want to work. I'm contemplating reloading my old ROM that i backed up once i get home. Anyone have any ideas? I pray to the gods of XDA.
I don't have much experience with your particular phone buy there has been a small epidemic of your issue on droid x running Gingerbread. It appears to be a disconnection of the google account with the market. It always appears to happen after a data wipe and need to reinstall apps. Sometimes you can still push apps from the Internet market to the phone, sometimes not. In a few cases it resolves by unmounting the sd card and downloading. Once download works then ok to remount. Besides those lucky few, everyone else has to wait it out. Even sbf does not fix it.
FORTUNATELY every case I know of resolved itself spontaneously in about 24hrs give or take. I found at least one case via google on a Thunderbolt so I know it can happen to other phones. Also if you have more than one android device on the same account all of them are affected. Good Luck
It has happened twice to me. Because of this I now keep copies of my most important apps on my sd card.

I rooted my phone tonight, everything went great.
When I restarted my phone and signed in with my account, all of the apps I had on the phone before the root immediately started downloading. For whatever reason, they have all stalled and the market won't work.
I've cleared the cache & data, done a force stop on the market, restarted, taken the battery out and restarted, still, the apps are stuck. Is there a fix for this? Am I the only one who has experienced this?
Did you install any rom after rooting?
I've had this problem as well, and so do many other people. There is what seems to be anecdotal fixes for it. My personal fix that I've become reliant on is leaving the Market open while the download(s) completes, and this seems to work most of the time. I've researched the issue quite a bit and unfortunately it seems to have been relegated to a "oh well, we're rooted and have installed a custom rom, I guess this is an unfortunate consequence that can't be fixed". From cm7 to aosp to the sense based roms, the problem seems to occur on all of them.
If you open up Titanium Backup and run "Market Doctor" it should fix the problem. You may need to restart the phone afterwards, but I can't remember if I usually do or not, lol.
