[Q] cm9 problem downloading apps - HTC Sensation

I just downloaded this rom, quite frankly I was going to wait for a normal release but I couldn't. Wait. I added the Google addon with the newest market. I'm on tmous. When I download apps it stays on the download screen without downloading the app, just preparing to dl. Any idea how to fix this?

Im assuming you mean cm7 selfKANG 9. Try restarting phone it worked for me it hasnt happened for a while though. I thinks just the newer version of the market

I believe I remember seeing this issue reported in the big thread over in the Development section. If I recall correctly, you should try clearing data for your Market app. I believe the process is something along the lines of:
Settings --> Manage Applications --> Open up the entry for Market app --> Clear data + Clear Cache
For some reason, there were also reports that making sure that your Date/Time settings are correct, and logging into Google Talk beforehand with your Google Account would help with Android Market problems.
Hope one of these helps fix you up. If not, I recommend searching the thread over in the Development forum. Remember to search before posting in there-- it's already a huge thread, and people may not appreciate answering something that's already been covered before multiple times. Good luck!

I cleared the cache and also signed into google talk so I'm not sure which it was but it worked. Thanks!

[Q] I Cant download or install from market, all of a sudden...please help

I cant download or install anything from the market. This just started happening within the hour.
It acts like it begins the download, then nothing.
this is extremely frustrating. anyone have anything on it?? how to fix, happening to you?
thank you
Same for me. Maybe the servers are in maintenance.
For the moment I think that all we have to do is wait and and see.
I'll get more concerned if it's still not working after 24h...
i can download anything except Gapps...
EDIT: Im getting a force close, a vending error...
I'm also having an issue starting today with downloads/installs using AppBrain and the stock Market place
I have a Samsung Vibrant running Bionix-V 2.2
Seems like only certain apps won't download (like Google Maps), I just downloaded an update for Mixzing though and it got installed
It just looks like it downloads and then it goes back to saying "Update" or stalls at the end of the download and doesn't install
Just thinking: maybe it has to do with the Google announcement that'll happen today. It is rumored that they would introduce the Android Market website besides Honeycomb ... So they may be doing tests or else that could have an impact on the market?
Same thing on my end.
pissing me off, it's been acting up all day.

We haven't heard anything about a market update
EDIT: They are working on an in browser android market so that might be the cause of the issue.
Wifi download didnt work, edge it worked. Then tried again and it worked. Servers maybe
Been trying on wifi and 3g, no go. No application can install/update. Instead, it "pretends" it is installed (shows in my Downloads/My Apps section), allows me to comment/rate, but still reports "Free" instead of "Download/Update"

Android Market acting weird -- is it a precursor to tomorrow's event?
We've gotten a bunch of tips in the past hour or so that the Android Market is doing weird things, and we can corroborate this on our Nexus S here -- we're just not able to download stuff. Apps look like they're starting to download, then they suddenly vanish into thin air without a trace and without an error message. Our Droid 2 is still fully functional, though, so this definitely isn't consistent; really, we're just wondering if this outage might have something to do with tomorrow's Android-themed festivities at the Google campus, which -- naturally -- we'll be attending. So how is everyone faring out there tonight?
Hi, you may try to clear Market cache in app settings. I used to solve my problem in that way.

[Q] Market won't work

I installed a ROM and the market app is black and says " The application Market (process com.adroid.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Any ideas?
Try the thread for the Rom, someone else might have same issue.

This is WHY they have minimum post settings.
I spent a week reading about the bolt, how to root it, etc., etc. Before doing anything. Read, and then read some more before tinkering around with it. Use nandroid backup before making changes.

I know there is some issues with market on the mr2 radio as far as the way the dev of your Rom needed to set it up so it would allow downloading of certain protected apps but sounds like you are taking right steps to try and get back to a functioning market
Clear the cache and data for the market app then try it again.

I have had the same issues and this fixed it.
I posted a topic about this about a week ago after installing MR2. There is an issue with Google recognizing and updating your info that is in some way related to the 4G SIM.
I kid you not....this is how to fix it...... It has happened to me twice the last week as I got an AE.
1. Wait. No matter what I did, it seemed to never "Come back" until about 48 hrs.
2. Clear the Market cache and data
3. Stop the market service
4. Sing into and out of Google talk like you are on OCD.
Pissed the second day I had this happened, I was sitting at a bar listening to some girl go on and on about something so I started signing in and out of Google talk like 14 - 16 times....... Opened the market...no problem!
For "Must have apps, go to the online market place via your computer and push them to your phone. That always worked for me no matter what. Good luck!

Here is a complete list of bloatware that is 100% safe to remove.

I am not responsible for anything that you choose to do to your device. This is just a guide nothing more. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
I am just dumb founded by the amount of bull sh*t in the stock Rom. The amount of bloatware in this should be against the law. I will tell you this much. Once i removed this junk my phone is much snappier. Have fun with it guys. Always do a nandroid before removing anything.

I'd like to add SWM-C to the list. I have no idea what it does, but I didn't need it running, so I trashed it.
You can also add "Tmobile Name ID" to the list if you don't use or want T-Mobile's for-pay Caller ID service.
ECID.apk is T-Mobile name id.

While we're at it, you can look Here to see some others that have been found to be safe to remove.
I personally keep some of the ones on both of these threads, but that doesn't mean they can't be removed.
Also, i've removed the genius app and had no troubles with the system running fine.
Can someone teach me how to remove latitude and car home, while keeping maps?
Car home is dockpanel.apk.

Much appreciated. Wasn't sure what dockpanel was, and hadn't gotten to axing that one yet in testing.
I guess that means i'm stuck with latitude, since I need Google Maps, but since carhome isn't "supposed" to work with our device according to Google, once it's gone it's toast.
I mentioned earlier that I un-installed the Genius app, tossing carhome gets rid of the rest of that silly talk stuff I can't stand. It's a danged touch device for a reason...lol.
I realize different things work for different people - my buddy loves the talking to it to make it do stuff, just not my thing.
But I need Maps because the feature of emailing places to people has become invaluable in a business sense for me.
We all use Maps, and as people need to be places we just email locations back and forth - someone simply clicks the link in their email and it plots it on the map, and then Navigation automatically computes driving directions.
Auto-sync with email notifies of the new location ready to be input, and you can share the location right from starting in the Maps app itself. When a person gets a new location to go to, they send that and their current to payroll - and their mileage is logged and compensation is computed before they even get to where they are going.
Score a point for Google making my work life much, much easier, and streamlining taxes and payroll.
Edit - i'm the guy I linked you to - another lol.
That thread was a group effort we undertook here to find out what all you could get rid of and still have the system run right. On my working install I use in my day-to-day on the phone, I have a lot of the apps I mentioned were safe to remove in the thread I linked to.
When we first got root on these phones, the day revolutionary was released, it was an all-out delete-fest to figure out what could be safely removed. Some people went ahead and froze things, others went ahead and just uninstalled them. By comparing notes and tinkering with it, we figured out most of what we could toss safely.
Like I said, I use some of the things mentioned to be deleted - but the focus of the thread was what could be removed, and not what personal preferences were.
When i'm doing all my GPS / A-GPS testing, for instance, I restore to my original CWM backup I made right after root and do all my testing with all the stock apps installed. I don't want to contaminate any of the tests by running a custom tweaked install, the only thing i'm trying to tweak in that instance is the GPS stuff i'm working with at the moment. I'm also trying to replicate the environment someone will be in out-of-the-box (or as close as can be since the phone is rooted with CWM installed).
Don't think that I run my phone on the daily with nothing on it - that would be silly and kinda pointless to have a smart phone that didn't do anything. But in the interest of discovery, you kinda have to go beyond what you're happy with to figure it all out. (or at least that makes the most sense to me)
Having tested software for a living for a while...just the habits I got into. Another reason why I go so overboard on backups. You should see all the CWM backups I have stored of this phone in different states.
Just wanted to clear up any confusion, in case you thought I was crazy about trying to rip everything out of the phone indiscriminately - there is a method to the madness (...or is it a madness to the method? Can never tell... )
The things listed that you can delete in the other thread are a pick-and-choose option, you don't have to remove them all.
Using ES File Explorer...
Can't seem to delete anything .... says that it can't be deleted.
Do we need to be S-Off first?
If so, how do we S-Off for Mac users?
There isn't too much clear detailed info for Mac users...frustrating..

There is no Mac version of the Revolutionary S-OFF method. You either have to (A) install Linux, configure it properly and run the Linux version of Revolutionary or (B) install Windows, configure it properly and run the Windows version of Revolutionary.
Your only other option is to wait patiently for HTC to provide a bootloader unlocker for this device which may or may not ever happen. They've released it for the T-Mobile Sensation, but that's a pure HTC phone and not a T-Mobile-branded myTouch model.
I've used Revolutionary on Windows and Linux and both methods are fairly straightforward. You just need to know what you're doing -- if you don't, you probably shouldn't be trying to attain S-OFF in the first place. Just use the permanent temp-root.
maps keeps automatically running in the background of my gf's phone. Is there anyway to stop it from autostarting? I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it as noted in another post elsewhere in this forum.

In another thread here, someone also found out that by un-installing the stock Google maps version, then re-downloading it from the market, you solve the problem of it running in the background all the time. Check the battery threads to find the specific posting, I forget which one it was in.
Glad to see we are coming up with all the little details here, everyone has a different approach to solving the problems we come across on this phone. Everyone sharing what they know here is starting to paint a pretty good picture of the whole situation - good job everyone!
(Yep, I know car home works on the device, but once you remove it you won't be able to re-download it from the market because Google has it listed as not working for this phone, so it will block the download - thanks for confirming from another phone that it is indeed working though.)
Exactly.

Unable to download/update any apps! Please Help!

After I flashed the recently released gingerbread leak for the droid charge (ep4p) through Odin, I haven't been able to download or update anything from the android market. It gives me the error "[application name]" could not be downloaded due to an error. (-101) I've tried basically everything I could google/search on forums and nothing has worked. I also have flashed the new GummyCharged and Humble 5. I've tried;
Force closing/wiping data for Market, Download Manager, and Google Services Framework
Factory Resetting the phone
Wiping cache/dalvik cache
Reverting back to EP3HA 2.3.5 (which I was originally on and the market worked just fine)
"Fixing" my phone indicated by imnuts
I have noticed that associating a different google account to my phone enabled me to download apps again, but this is not helpful at all since all my contacts and purchases are associated with my original google account that I've been using. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated with this issue. Thanks in advance.
Edit: I tried installing apps from the android market on my computer, which works just fine. Only when I try to download the app on my phone does it give me the error.
Ok I was gonna suggest a few things but need to get things clear.
When you associate a different google account what were/are you running?
What were you running in the first place with your contacts etc?
Re read it a couple of times lol. You installed EP4P but was it from a DEV?
You might have to edit a file in the build.prop.
ro.build.model=sch-i510
Also there is a market fix .apk
Umm hmm So if you use your old google email and go to your maket / my apps it doesnt show anything?
Now Im confusing myself. Yeah so what were you running with the original contacts etc.. lol

When I associated a different google account, I factory wiped and was on the rooted and debloated EP3HA 2.3.5
I was originally on this build, flashed to EP4P, and then reverted back to it.
The EP4P I flashed was the unofficial gingerbread leak I got over at mydroidworld.com (I would link to it, but since I just registered I can't until after 8 posts)
When I go to my market with my old google email, my apps still show up. It's just that I can't download or update anything. I hope this helps haha. Thanks for your time.

Thanks for trying :/ I really hope someone knows a solution to this. It's been driving me up the wall
did you clear the market app data/cache from application option in phone settings after you installed the new market? try clearing those and if possible unlink your google account from any google apps and clear those apps data/cache in settings as well then log in to all of them again and try downloading from the market
I had a similar problem where it did this on the deodexed/debloated EP4D.
Market always crashed right before download started.
I tried numerous things, but ended up Odining the ROM again. I started up the Market, signed in, let it do its thing. I recall it updated the Market.
I then built up from there with no issues.
I've had some annoying-ass problems with the Market before on different ROMs/kernels, tried all kinds of stuff, and just re-flashed to end the problem once and for all.
Have you tried to odin back to ee4 and accept the OTA for EP4? if it still has issues when bone stock the there is obviously some other underlying issue .

To everyone who's suggested a solution, much thanks. It appears the problem resolved itself. After being frustrated for many hours about this I decided to set the problem aside and come back to it at a later time. After a few hours of letting my phone sit, I tried to download something for the hell of it and for some reason my market was functioning perfectly normal again. I don't understand why or how it happened, but it's like it never happened. To anyone trying to find a solution to this same problem, I can only hope the same happens to you as well.

I hope this works. I called google to see what's up. Let's see what they can do. First level support didn't really know what to do.
I don't know if this is still true, but in the past people had market problems if google talk wasn't installed.

If you look at the logcat, you will see that there was an unexpted error there.
That HTTP error code 509 signals a bandwidth overage; to be more precise, the server will refuse the google account because you downloaded too much in a 24 hour window. This isnt just a google problem, i believe it is an Apache problem in general.
It is my first day with the phone and i have been downloading like crazy from it.
Same problem
Same problem on my Bionic and Xoom. Does anyone know what this 509's MB limit is or when it will expire?

I've had the problem for days now and didn't download much of anything before it happened...
Galaxy Nexus 4.0.1 ECL53F AR HD 1.3.3 stock kernel
I had the same issue on my Galaxy Nexus after flashing a custom rom. This is what I did to fix it.
Go to market.android.com and install an app from there to your phone.
However, if you are getting a 509 Error Code in logcat which is what I am experiencing right now, then you need to just wait until the bandwidth subsides.

[Q] Would post in Developers Forums but need at least 10 Posts.....

I did a search and could not readily find the answer......
Is Gapps.zip also required with DJ ICS+ V1.0.3 also?
I root and upgraded my Sam Tab 10.1. It required Gapps.zip. Also it also auto downloaded all of the apps from my Marketplace library. On the Skyrocket each apps has to be re-downloaded. Would installing Gapps.zip, if even possible on the Skyrocket, add any missing baseline apps and do the auto download of the library?
TIA,
Rob
Nope you don't need gapps

same thing, google wouldnt restore anything I had unless I was using AOSP or something cm7.
So been using DJ ICS+ V1.0.3 for a while now. The aesthetics are excellent and it appears to be very stable. So I have to say the folks that worked on this did a really good job. However, benchmarking this load shows about a 20% decrease in performance compared to a stock 2.3.5, even when clocked at 1.7Ghz versus the stock 1.5Ghz.
I could be doing something error but the load works very well. Perhaps FauxClock is not working correctly.
The numbers from AnTuTu are:
Stock 2.3.5 - 6053
DJ ICS+ V1.0.3(2.3.6) - 4834
This is apparently not a full ICS build which is fine it has a good look and feel but it is at the expense of some performance.
So before the flames start, I am not complaining. Just merely pointing out some fact for anyone looking to some this or the new to be updates load(rom).
I would have posted this in the development forum but still don't have 10 posts.....
FWIW,
Rob

I did a search and could not readily find the answer......
Is Gapps.zip also required with DJ ICS+ V1.0.3 also?
I root and upgraded my Sam Tab 10.1. It required Gapps.zip. Also it also auto downloaded all of the apps from my Marketplace library. On the Skyrocket each apps has to be re-downloaded. Would installing Gapps.zip, if even possible on the Skyrocket, add any missing baseline apps and do the auto download of the library?
TIA,
Rob

Your thread would have been deleted if your question had been posted at the development forums. That is why we have Q&A forums. This is the right place to ask you questions.
Please familiarize yourself with the XDA Forum Rules.
Good you didn't have 10 posts to make your question there yet, didn't you
Ok, being part of several forums that rule is certainly not intuitive.
So since this is the correct forum post how about a response?
Seems like the folks creating the ROM would be interested in the feedback and be best to provide some insight. Don't seem to be getting it here.....
Or did I miss the response?
Also, I read the rules and I did not see anything that would suggest that this post in the Developers Forums would have been removed. Do the rules change as the moderators deem fit???????

it has nothing to do with the ROM. it is a Touchwiz based rom and thus you will have the exact same issues as any other touchwiz based rom when it comes to your apps....
I was thinking of installing the gapps for the same reason. Not so much the apps for me, but on my AOSP phones/roms google saved all my wifi passwords that alone is worth checking out because I have a lot that are a pain in the ass to enter on a phone.

but GAPPS are the same versions of the apps that are already included in the rom...
this is a TOUCHWIZ issue, until you remove Samsungs crap UI, it will remain an issue
installing GAPPS from CM will yield no benefit.....

Didn't know this. Thanks! I recently fired up my old Nexus S 4G and it was nice that everything just worked, loaded, and connected after I unput my google account info. Every android phone should do this.
