You can try to paste the market app you just downloaded to the system/app folder of your phone, and then I reboot. That method worked on my epic and charge.
Have you tried to do a reset again, and what rom are you using?

I rebooted a few times and it stopped Force Closing. Now I'm getting an Authentication Login Error, saying that I need to Log in to my google account.
I'm running rooted EE4 w/Voodoo Lagfix Enabled

The only thing that I can think of is to maybe disable the lagfix, wipe data, reflash the rom, then renable lagfix
But I would say the easiest way to fix this is find a rom to odin over it, maybe ep1f humble or gummy if you want GB, both are good

Finally got it working. Just waited on the screen where it asks me for authentication... then after a minute or two, it started working... weird. Thanks for the link to the new Market!

Thanks, I actually may have fixed it by accident. I used odin and again and used the PIT this time and then went into 3e and went to the option to delete user data and when the phone rebooted i went thru the setup guide and skipped everything. I then went to the market and it had me go thru the google sign up guide and i signed into my account and then i went into the manage applications and saw that the market version was 2.3.6 so Im not sure if what i did worked or if it was just me.
Just FYI it auto updates to the latest version. Had the same thing happen to a new Infuse I picked up today for my wife.
Hers hadn't updated after 10 minutes so did the following (posted on a Google help forum I can't link to because I'm noob):
Delete the market's cache and data and force close it, reboot your phone. After reboot start the market wait a minute go back to home and then restart the market.
This "worked" for me, but waiting a little longer or rebooting may have been what actually fixed it.

I did delete the cache and data and i waited like an hour and it didn't update. Whatever i did before worked.
Thanks for your help.
try downloading an app, it should then say updates available in the notification bar, it may automatically update or you can go into "my apps" and see the updates. if that doesnt work i guess i can pull the apk and post it
I got it figured out, but before it did update some apps.
It eventually changes, mine stayed liek that for 3 days i think then just changed to the new one...
i kind of like the old one tho.

[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

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...

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.

[Q] Market fails on downloads

My market will not download anything at all, it loops 'downloading' and 'download paused' then fails out. Currently running Eclipse v1.1 with imnuts PBJ non-oc kernal.
I tried the market fix posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1121179 and tried swapping out the Vending.apk. I cleared the data/cache as well, that didn't do anything either.
I also tried Gummy Charged(1.8.1 and 1.8.5) and Humble 1.1 roms, still no dice.
Any ideas or recommendations would be appreciated.
Go into applications in the settings menu. Force stop and clear data then retry. If that doesn't work try restarting the phone. That worked for me.

I had tried doing that with all the roms I ran, didn't do anything. I just odined back to ED1 and market is working. Going to flash back to Eclipse and see what happens.
That was my second idea. Lol. Was to just reflash the ROM. Hope that works for you.
Back up and working, weird.
try opening your google talk, i had that problem before on my Incredible and by doing that and logging it in, it fixed it.

market wont download

I reflashed from miui back to stock , re-rooted, and flashed voodoo com kernel..... no problems until trying to download from market... stuck on download showing download, but not working....tried different apps...same thing.... and google talk continues to open trying to launch...I've never used it once....help a semi-newb
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Other than reflashing, here is what i do when that happens.
Open Market, getting the loading screen? Force stop the market and open it again......seems to work ok after that.
This happened to me, and force closing the market didn't work.
Other than going using GTG's unbrick process, here's what you can do.
Download GTG's Infused and extract the market.apk from there. I think this should fix it.
If you have a Gmail account logged in on your Gmail app, try logging off, then back in on the Gmail app and on GoogleTalk.

I thought gtg's fix was for not enough space while using the market........
his market.Apk never stopped the market from stalling or whatever.

Yes, you're right. It is for the "not enough space" error. But hey, it doesn't hurt to try. I was just brainstorming some ideas on how to fix it. I never said I was 100% those were the best fixing methods. Nothing bad will come out of him trying to use GTG's market.apk
You are right, since u mentioned it......im going to try it out and see if i can eliminate the problem all together.
