[Q] cant download marketplace apps?

Ok, so I just got my Dell streak on O2 - first thing I did was install 2.1 on it.
when trying to sign into my googlemail account, it kept saying I had no connection (even though I was on wifi, and the browser worked on both streak and my mbp). After trying and try I decided to use the O2 sim that came with the phone (i was using my previous one still on iphone tarrif) and turned off wifi - this allowed me to sign into the market.
I found a handful of apps I wanted to download, but when I go to the download page, they all just say "starting download", the bars are animated but nothing is happening. I have tried this with both wifi on and off.
Is this a 2.1 issue?
I love the phone/tablet (phablet?) but not having access to the marketplace sucks! I also can't sync my contacts!
Help!

Also have the same problem with downloading apps from the "Market", but mine are on the Motorola Milestone, already preloaded with 2.1 ()Eclair. Simply won't let me download any apps, which is a minor problem I 1st had with my old HTC Wildfire, but automatically overcome. Help is greatly needed, thanks.

This is a 2.1/2.2 bug in the Market, which Google has to fix.
Try leaving it on "Downloading..." for a bit, it might start. Else you can try cancel-install a few times, that should get it going.
I thought they fixed this for 2.1, but they obviously didn't :/

Aight then, thanks, so it's basically a common Eclair/Froyo OS problem? Hopefully that'll all work then. Thanks

Would there be any other problems other than the OS that could prevent apps from being downloaded from the "Andorid Market"? Because I've tried the above steps and I'm gettin' nothing.

when the HELL will this be fixed...
i have 2 phones ACER stream and HTC Desire, both have the problem....

Have you looked at the logcat? Anything of interest in there? Maybe try posting this...

Can anyone use the Market now?

Yes, I know that MS is working on it, but it seems they do work cause I can get to the install screen but when I try to install something, while it says "Purchasing" it pops me an error code saying:
"There is a problem completing your request. Try again later.
Error Code:c101a420"
Does everyone experience this? or maybe only the HD2 WP7 owners?

no.. i just have this problem too. and i have a hd7..
an<one knows an answer?

No no, this is good, they're probably working on the servers, but I was concerd if they are trying to block the HD2 users.

oh ok

Same here..

Can I just say that developer is responsible for the awful Windows Phone 7 version. They claim they're developing for Microsoft but I find it hard to believe when you see all the crap they put out.
Good luck with that.

I have the same problem... HTC Desire with Cyanogen Mod 7...
Have you any ideas to solve it?

could it be because msn is linked to fb contacts and the app is unable to fetch them?

Same here.

What device are you using? Chevron is a tool to get your device developer unlocked. To use the tool you must first install the cert, like you already did. Neither the tool nor the cert have something to do with the marketplace. To be able to use the marketplace, you need a Windows Live ID.

i have a htc trophy, i can enter in the marketplace but i cannot download enything
, i am doing a restore now

But you set up your Windows Live account and entered the activation code that came with your device, right? Without that, you cannot use the marketplace.

ye the account is fine, but it s after i installed the certificate file, still not working after the restore

Is there maybe a problem with the marketplace just now? I've just tried to download a few different things and am getting message along the lines of "can't get this info right now, check back later"?
I've not installed anything or done anything out of the ordinary today on my phone?

I've been trying to update apps as well and it's now allowing me to...

MP usually has problems for me too on weekends..

To confirm, I'm having issues as well. I went so far as to factory reset my phone
I put a call into Microsoft/Zune Support. They're suppose to call me back in like 30 miutes

Been trying to update Cocktail Flow, but kept giving the same error over and over (since yesterday). Downloading new apps was fine... just updates.
Only now have I been able to update it... check it out guys.

MP problem is problem over net/over cloud, it has nothing to do with our phones... same for Xbox Live or Zune Player MP..
I dont think its not a good idea to hard reset my phone over net/cloud problems.. just wait .. lol

Yeah...unfortunately, learned that the hard way. Now I can't get my phone back the way i want it until this issue is fixed.
**UPDATE**
Just for the heck of it, I created a new live id and was able to download apps. is there a way I can switch all my transactions from the live id that's not working to the live id that is working?

I don't know about that.. But I have switched from mobudget to my budget app.. And my trial expired last night .. Since than I have been trying to buy it but nothing ..

Is anyone else still having problems with the marketplace? I'm still getting the "can't get this information right now, check back in a little while" error when I try to download anything.
Edit : I also can't download any apps or music through Zune on my laptop so I'm guessing my windows live I.d. has developed some kind of problem in the last 24 hours. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Everything is fine now for me.. microsoft updated mp with new apps and new featured apps and things like that.. maybe thats why their is a downtime on weekends..

I can install/buy apps now..

Patience people... same with updates and problems.
I would have f***** ** my phone a while ago I haven been patient with NoDo and forced it.

New to wp7, need answers

Hello, I just got my Omnia7 and I need some answers:
1. When does mango come out? My country/region (Finland) doesn't have the market available and it's SO ****ing annoying! I can't dl games, apps I cand to ****.
2. Is it true that when I get mango, Can I use hidden wifi? My house wifi is hidden (don't know why, no hax0rz nearby I know that)? It annoying me so much that I can't even browse the net with my phone because no wifi available -______-
3. I have a .XML backup file of my SMS, is there an app like SMS backup&restore so I could get my messages back to my new phone?
I had somethin else on my mind that I had to ***** about too lol but I cant remember atm... Don't get me wrong, this phone is awesome, fast, and looks amazing but it's not ready yet and needs Mango ASAP!!

About the first one, Mango will be out probably this month. In order to get the marketplace working you can either create a live account with a UK address or wait for the official release of mango.

1. new rumors tell of an Mango release on 15th Sept.
search at wpcentral . com for the reasons of this rumors
(I´m not allowed to post links)

1. Marketplace will be open to Finland when Nokia launch its Windows Phones which is in 2 months.
2. Yes, Mango supports hidden WiFi.
3. Sorry, there's no way to restore and backup your SMS. (not officially anyway).

Uh guys, as far as I can see at this source the Finnish marketplace should already be open
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/952586?sd=zune

mango may be out in the fall, and now the mango is the reveal version.market is a Problem.you can hacking phone

Thanks for all the replies
Okay so the Mango should be coming in September? It's the 2nd now, wpcentral says it might come on the 15th and that's only two weeks with a phone I can barely do nothing...
@day2die do you have a source that I need to wait for the marketplace that long? I can access zune marketplace on pc with the zune thing I downloaded. I DL'd YouTube app yesterday but I guess it failed somehow because I wasn't connected
To wifi when I tried to visit the mp on the phone...
Thank god for the hidden wifi support, why didn't we get this from the start -___-
Also the backup&restore, I don't care if it's official or not, I just want my messages back lol hopefully some 3rd party software maker will make an app for that if there already isn't one....
How can I hack my phone to access the marketplace? Or how do I install mango beta? Does the beta have hidden wifi availability?

I read somewhere that Mango will be release in October not september.

If I now go to Mango beta by looking the noob friendly guide, is it easy to come back to the NoDo and then update to official Mango?

yes ' you can...........
i updated to mango beta and now i came back to nodo with out problem.....
