Android Market on Xoom not working please help!! - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My market allows me to download and delete apps, However whenever i go to the section "my apps" the market always force closes. When it does that it says: "The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Ive turned mt Xoom off numerous times and still have this problem. Has this happen to anyone else? Does Anyone know how to fix this?
My Xoom is stock. Wifi

Go to settings , applications , manage applications , and finally , click on all . Scroll down to market and select it , clear data , cache , and force stop . When you reopen the market accept the terms and you should be good to go .

I've tried that multiple times and still it does the same thing. Ive done it and restarted the Xoom. Ive done it without restarting. Nothing is working. Any other ideas?

Not really a lot more you can do, you've already cleared the Market settings. next step from here would be a factory reset I think... unless someone else has any ideas?

try settings /applications. Go to market and uninstall updates for the market otherwise sounds like a factory reset.

[Q] Help! cannot install app from market

No problem go to market, search, browse and even download app(I can see the download progress bar was full of green), but once download finished, it shows installing, then takes forever.
Congnition 2.3b6, flashed several times, same problem.
Thanks in advance.
Did you try going to manage applications select the market and clear data? Make sure you do the data not just the cache.

Yes I did, still the same. Even delete and reinstall market app, had the same problem. Flashed back to 2.1, everything back to normal.

i've tried exactly 15 times now to do the market fix, but it wont' give me an error

have you tried it without booting up market after the cache and data wipes and waiting a few minutes after rebooting?
have you tried with both TI back up and with the applications settings screen(each seperately and exclusively)?

Didn't know vegan 4 was around .....
I am having somewhat the same problem. I was on CM6.1B4, all working ok but wanted to check out this vegan ROM since it is getting so much traction. I installed vegan beta 3. Tried the market fix, got the error, rebooted, waited over 5 mins, nothing. Tried this over and over.
I keep getting 'Network Error, please try again' in the market. Yes wifi is on and working, I can browse the web, download from the web. Once in a while get the market to show a couple apps and download them. But for the most part the market errors and/or is empty.
Here is the stuff I tried. I did a data/cache wipe on ROM install. I also tried a data/cache wipe 2 more times. I have tried the market fix over and over. Sometime I do not get the market error (the expected one). I tried the new market, with the market fix.
Someone please help, what am I doing wrong, why am I getting the network error. Thing is useless without the market. Gmail seems to have issues too downloading mail. This everything worked fine with CM6.1, does the wifi support 802.11b/g/n in vegan?
What are the exact steps from ROM install or data/cache wipe to get market up and running? And don't point me to the market fix, I wants steps prior to that....
You could just install Applanet... granted it only has like the top 10,000 android market apps... It essentially has everything and anything you would really want from the market. ..
Oh yeah and its free and no need to root..

I found this worked for me and might work for you too.
I goto the settings and select applications and then system
apps. I basically disable google service framework, market and
market update. I then use T. backup and look for google frame-
works and wip the data. I then try to run the market, it should
fail .. You do a complete shutdown and restart ... If you done
it correctly it should get the market working.

When you are wiping the cache for the market in the applications settings do you actually see the byte size for cache go to zero 0.00B? I had the same situation on one of my rebuilds - had to wipe and rebuild because the clear cache nor the clear data were actually clearing (i.e., showing zero).
I had the same issue, tried many many times, no error. it worked for me when I first logging to Google market first. Then, do the market fix..

Where are my apps?

I got a terrible problem with my rooted Milestone 2. In the offical android market under downloads it alwaxs says that i havent download an app yet which is not true. This means that i am not able to get updates for my apps. Is there any change to restore my apps so that they are visiable in the market again?
Manage Applications >> Market >> Clear cache

try that^
and if that doesnt work, you can maybe try installing the new market v 2.2.7. if you dont already have it that is. link HERE
if that doesnt work, then since you are rooted try getting on the Titanium Backup app. if you go to backup/restore tab on the top and go down to the app that isnt showing up in the market, press and hold the app, and it will come up with menu and one of the choices are "Attatch to Market (Forced)"
hope this helps homie

[Q] how to stop "ongoing" marketplace download??

Today when i was trying to update skype and download some other applications in the market, this below thing happened to me.
On my drag down task bar there are 17 "ongoing" downloads from android market. even though i cancelled everything, tried also to stop/remove market from app manager, stop google talk (i don't have this installed but i see it in running services?!), rebooting the phone, software repair (failed),... that thing is still there and never goes away.
i'm running out of ideas. anyone can help?
sony ericsson x10i 2.1 update-1
Try deleting the market cache/data. Go to settings > applications > manage applications, then the "all" tab. Find the market & force stop it. Then clear the data & the cache. If the notification is still there, reboot & it should go away.
if in MIUI rom there is a Downloads application to manage download.
duno where to get the apps

So the problem is that your status bar is stuck showing downloads, not necessarily the app itself.
Since you said you uninstalled & reinstalled the market, I'm assuming you're rooted. If this is the case, there's an app on the forums that kills your status bar then restarts it, but I'm not sure if it would work in your situation. It was made with the CM7 theme chooser in mind, so it may only work on 2.3. I'm not sure though, as I've never used it. You could also try booting into recovery & wiping your cache & dalvik cache. If you have a root level file explorer, try going to /cache and deleting any downloadfile.apk files you may see. They may be in /cache/download if that path exists.
If none of that works, you could try reflashing your rom over itself. Just wipe cache/dalvik, not data, and everything should remain as it was unless you've made changes to any system files. And if that doesn't work, I'm all out of ideas.
I am assuming that you've rebooted, but if for some reason you haven't, try that first.
em... now i can't download anything from the market anymore. everytime i choose to download something, it just adds up in the task bar and the downloading never ends. now i have accumulated 18 ongoing downloads even though they are not really downloading anything.
i have a rooted x10 but i cannot find any folder named /cache when browsing using astro file manager.
i don't know how to get into recovery mode to wipe off the cache as you said.
and yes, rebooting was the very first thing i did but it doesn't work...

I'm not sure how to get into recovery on your phone, but I'm sure a quick Google search would yield the answer. You can also try using a cache cleaner app, but it may not solve the problem. If you can get into recovery (again, I'm assuming you're rooted) then go to the "wipe" menu... it may say something else but the word wipe should be there. From there choose to wipe cache & dalvik cache. I think in ClockworkMod that wiping dalvik cache is under "advanced", but I'm not sure if that's your recovery version or if it's even available for your phone.
The only other option would be a factory reset.
Oh, and the /cache directory is on internal memory, not the SD card. Astro is not a root level explorer, so you would need Root Explorer or ES File Explorer.
hi,
i am experiencing the same issues and my phone is not rooted.
i've done the clear cache thing and still the issue persists. the phone also freezes up whereby it does not even register my touch and the screen just blanks out.
any other advice on this please for non-rooted phones??
Hi,
I've just seen this problem on a X10 mini upgraded to android 2.1 update 1.
The solution was to "clear data" and "force stop" for "Download Manager".
IE: go to settings/applications/manage applications, press menu key, select filter and set All, scroll until you find the "Download Manager" entry, select it and then click "clear data" and "force stop"
You can now go to the market and start again any install/upgrade that might have been stuck in the queue before.
Hope it works for you too!
Stupid xperia 10
Okay WTF!, this is the only thread online I found that deals with this problem. Is Sony really that incompetent?.
I've had this problem for a week, I am now upto 35 ongoing downloads. I only had 8 ongoing 3 days ago. I cannot download or install or download and install anything!. This is complete B.S.
I have done everything in this thread and nothing works. Sony still has not e-mailed me back. I am FURIOUS!, WTF is happening!. Why can't I remove these ongoing downloads/updates.
I've done the whole "application manager" B.S. but it won't let me force close my market. I've disabled wi-fi. I am losing my effing mind!.
HAS ANYONE ACTUALLY DEALT WITH AND CORRECTED THIS PROBLEM?. I will give you $5. This is getting retarded.
Oh and FYI "Download manager" does not appear in my list of apps what so ever, and there is no such thing as a "all" tab in my "manage applications" directory.
... Oh great!, I've uninstalled my market but my Icon still appears... Oh look at that the program works "ING! AWESOME!" considering IT DOESN'T EXIST ON MY PHONE ANYMORE! INCLUDING APPLICATION MANAGER! WTF!

THANK YOU! Add me to the list of grateful users as this also worked for me!
I was unable to stop the 'Download Manager' nor 'Downloads' apps, but I cleared cache & data for both, + all of the above for the Google Play Store; removed downloadfile.apk and 2-files from dalvik cache. Notifications stopped !
Then I rebooted. GP-Store (which was already current) indicated they were updating and required my acceptance. Then the store opened normally; I manually download ONE app.
I only download via Wi-fi so Wifi is my emergency panic button.
Thanks again!
thank me if. I helped u guys please im a newbie here
Hey dudes just do as I say during the force download goto settings>applications>manage applications then press menu > filter > all and search for download manager and tap it and force stop it , PROBLEM SOLVED KEEP SMILING , Any way I say xperia always rocks , mail me regarding any doubts

ADW Launcher - Keeps Crashing

I keep getting:
The application ADW.Launcher (process android.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
It keeps looping this over and over when I force close.... please help
First go to settings, then applications then manage applications find adw clear cache or data, then if that doesn't work uninstall then reinstall, and if that doesn't work I'd say do a clean install of rom, by the way which rom are u running?

I can't even get into settings at all....this happens when it unlocks and keeps looping so I can't even get to my homepage.
I tried to get into the market via voice search for android market, but when I try and launch the market, the market app crashes too!.
The phone is currently stock 100%, just carrier code unlocked..
Yup, mine started doing this when I change themes. How does one get in touch with developers?

You could have deleted adw via adb while in cwm or even while booted into the os.

If you were 100% stock then that means you had installed adw launcher from the market. Correct? If that's the case then you could also have just done a factory reset from within cwm and it should've cleared up any issues as it would've deleted any user-installed apps, including adw launcher.
Either way glad you found a solution.

Problem already solved but just for others visiting this thread, there is a way to get rid of the issue (which worked for me). when there was crash in ADW Launcher, statusbar still works. This is to key to get back to original theme (as you can't access settings directly to set default theme)
Opened status bar, start internet.
From another device (or desktop machine), send a mail to yourself with google play link for the new theme you just installed
Your status bar will now have new mail notification (assume its activated)
Now access your mail app and open the link from the mail
Now you have browser app opened with google play page
You will have uninsatll option for that theme. Just do it.
Now as new theme is uninstalled, your default theme will come in picture and everything will be normal.
I hope this will help others fall in similar situation after installing new theme.
