Android market place crashes when downloading anything - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I have a xperia ray mobile phone
I rooted it yesterday with zergrush.
It was working fine then suddenly android market started crashing when I downloaded anything.
I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it still crashed.
I had a backup made earlier with titanium backup
I restored the market and still same thing.
I restored the phone to factory setting
I didn't find the android market there although it was there when I bought the phone, all the other stock apps were there.
I installed android market from an apk I found on the net.
It starts but when I want to download anything it crashes, then it keeps on crashing whenever I start it until I go to manage applications and delete it's data then it works until I start downloading anything, therefore I cannot download anything into my phone.
Can anyone help me please I just want android market to work again.
Thank you in advance
PS. After I reset to factory setting I also can't seem to connect my phone to my computer by USB or anything else

Titanium Restore on 3.1

3g Xoom with freshly installed BRD 3.1 packages.
3.1 update went well, reinstalled Titanium to restore everything.
Restore seems to go fine, yet virtually every app that gets restored, once run will FC. Every single time.
Any ideas???
Thanks in advance!
Im not sure, but I think it has something to do with the fact that the update gave us a new android version. I dealt with the same problem last night as well. What was weird was that the only app that restored the app+data without FC probkems was Angry Birds.
Restoring the apps only (no data) worked every time though...
Reboot into recovery, Fix permissions, reboot. I had no problems at all after doing this.
When i use titanium backup i'm only showing some xoom functions, not my apps. How do i fix that? Did look for threads before posting btw.
I had this problem also. I tried restoring all my apps + data and got force closes. I uninstalled the apps and downloaded them from the market- they'd work.. Try to restore data to the newly downloaded app and again it would FC. Market doesn't recognize the apps that are replaced via Titanium Backup so I had to download them anyway just so I would be able to stay updated.
Another problem I had- Titanium no longer recognizes that I bought the pro version. I downloaded both parts (titanium free and the pro version- that's just a key...) but Titanium doesn't open all features after downloading Pro from Market. I see donate version only beside hypershell, etc...
It also takes a VERY long time to ask for root rights when starting up... Anyone else?
I will try to restore one app from Titanium and fix permissions as mentioned earlier in the thread. Here goes nothin'....
To the guy having issues finding his apps- try installing the busybox installer from jrummy16 in the market (the other one didn't work for me), install busybox 1.9 from it because the busybox that TB installs didn't work for me (and other people) and then make sure in your preferences that you have the correct folder selected for backing up. The autodetect worked for me.
EDIT: Wow! Fixing permissions solved the FC issue- now I can restore all my apps. The problem with TB not recognizing that I've downloaded Pro version remains however.

I'm having the same issues you are having with TB. It takes a very long time to get root permissions and it will not recognize my pro key either. It says "Reboot / See checkout.google.com". I found a thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13728994&highlight=titanium#post13728994 ) that has mention of what at least one person was able to do to get it working, but it's not working for me. My busybox is v1.18.4, but it's just not working.
Fixing permissions didn't do it for me, but I appreciate the response.
It's weird- the apps and data install fine. I run the apps and they seem to load alright but within 2 or 3 seconds they always FC.
It's very odd....
Thanks for the replies folks!
Titanium has been updated. Everything works great now.

Factory Reset - Not very happy - No Market :-(

Hi - I have the stock rooted EE4 ROM, and I needed to do a factory reset this afternoon. Before the reset, I backed up all my apps with MyBackup Pro.
While it restored mostly OK, I seem to be stuck now.
A number of my apps show that they need to be updated.
However, my Market app is the old one (probably the one that was embedded in the ROM). Now, whenever I try to update (or, install) any of my apps, the download just seems to abort after a second, and none of my apps are getting updated/installed.
It doesn't matter if it is a new or old app - nothing gets downloaded. I do have 3G/4G data available, since I can browse OK, and the Market does show apps in its GUI.
How do I fix this?
Thanks ...

Go settings=>applications=>manage applications=>all applications=>market and clear data on the market. Also if you used the factory reset through settings=>privacy, you should never do this from a custom ROM. You should only use that option from a stock ROM.
Awesome, Landshark! That worked!
If I could "thank" you 5 times, I would!
Cheers!

Installing apps on custom ROM causes reboots

Hi!
Apologies in advance, I don't know much about the workings of android, I just follow guides!
I'm trying out my first custom rom, namely gingerclone, and am having trouble getting all my apps back up and running...
Before installing the rom, I backed up all my apps and settings with titanium backup, so I could restore them much easier after the rom change.
Although when I tried restoring them, I had lots of force closes with titanium backup itself, and about half of my apps would immediately FC on opening and didn't have icons. I then uninstalled the problem apps manually in settings>applications, and tried installing via the market. For some apps, it worked fine, but for others, whenever I try to install from the market, my phone reboots when the download is done and it tries installing. Sometimes it won't even download and just gives me errors, and for some they will install, but will not launch, just force close. I've tried cleaning the dalvik cache with titanium backup, and deleting settings files for the problem apps from my sd card, so that as far as I can see, there is no trace of them. But still, random reboots whenever I try installing, or unopenable if I manage to get them to install.
Any idea what could be going on? Plenty of other apps have installed and are working fine, so I'm stumped.
Had the same exact problem trying to install apps with titanium backup.
what i did was just slow down and install each app one by one and wait for each app to completely install before trying to install the next.
trying to download all of them all and once always made my phone reboot like it does to yours.
well hope this helps!
Wel I ended up uninstalling them all and trying to install again from the market, but I can't even get them to install individually now. It seems like trying to restore the backup has put some rogue files somewhere and is messing it up when I try to install the apps...
I have no idea why, but everything has started working again, so problem solved :/
I don't know. That never happened with me

Problem when updating apps

Ok, i will try to explain (english is not my first language)
I have strange problem when updating apps via play store.
When i go to play store and manualy start app update, and when update is finished, the app which i am currently using, like msgs, youtube, facebook if freezes and i have to close it with task manager and run it again.
The bigger problem is when i start update and go to my home screen, immediately after the app is updated, the launcher freezes and i have to restart the phone.
During this i can open notification bar, open settings and stuff but nothing else works.
I don't have many apps, maybe 15 installed, and i am running cleanrom v5.
Is there some log which can help me to identify the problem?
Thanks
UPDATE:
Maybe this can help to someone but the problem was because of restored apps with titanium backup.
I reinstalled rom and then dowloaded all my apps from play store and everything is ok now, no problems.
I am not sure but maybe i created backup of my apps when i was running cm10, so restoring it in sense rom could cause instability.

Titanium Backup troubleshooting

So I have been using TB for years now, since back in the day that I had the HTC Hero and I have never had a problem with it until now. There are some certain apps that it will just not restore no matter what I try. It begins restoring the others just fine but when it gets to the same exact apps, it just stops and freezes.
I am using the Restore missing apps with data option.
I have tried deleting all backups and backing up again. I have tried verifying my backups various times. I have also tried not using batch restore for those specific apps (Going directly to that app and restoring just that one app with and without data, and it just hangs as well).
I am using SuperSU with my binary updated and busy box installed. I also changed the application processing mode to indirect. Is anyone else having this same issue? Its not on one specific rom, it happens on every rom I flash may it be stock based or aosp. I have exactly 112 apps backed up so when I have to force stop TB, and go back to uncheck the apps that are not restoring various times to restore the rest, it sucks especially since I am very picky with things working as they should.
Apps it will not restore:
Tippy Tipper
Subway Surfer
Nimble Quest
Battlefriends at sea gold
Commander (Star wars)
Instasize
If anyone has any idea what may be causing this and how to fix it, please let me know. Thank you beforehand!
What kernel do you have installed?
Stock CM that came with the official CM12 rom.
But either way, I have had this issue on every rom I have flashed.

Do you have SELinux in permissive mode?

I use this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mrbimc.selinux
I tested this out and I am still having the same issue with the same apps.
I am having a similar issue. Diff device, but I couldn't find any other info. Oddly yesterday it restored no problem.
I was on a diff rom tho. Maybe I'll flash another rom.

If you go to the play store are you able to install them? I have had a few that i can't restore, but once I've installed them from the play store I can restore the backed up data. I haven't been able to figure out why some restore and others don't (unless they aren't compatible with the DPI and the Android version I've found a few that when you look them up in the play store they are not compatible)

I have been able to install them from the play store without any issue, I just can't restore them using TB no matter what I try. And its weird that its the same apps every time. So it is something that those apps have that does not get along. Can someone manipulate the situation and check on their end? I am running Illusion (Latest version from the 18th) and latest version of TB. See if you can restore those specific apps backed up from any rom.
Try changing the mount namespace separation setting in super su. I got that message when I first installed titanium it was a warning I don't know what it does or if it will fix your problem
I realized today that when backing up the specific apps after deleting all backups (Fresh backup), it rushes through those specific apps like as if it doesn't want to back it up but it doesn't give me an error message.
some apps don't like restoring to a different rom than they were made on.
Have you tried using the option in TB to create an update.zip you can then flash?
Hi there in desperation I come to this thread. Ive tried everything thats suggested in this thread and more.
TT backup Pro home page shows all necessary items like Root etc checked.
Problems with Pro:
1..Nandroid restore crashes immediately on item selection eg as soon as Menu Item Nandroid is selected Titanium crashes.
2..As mentioned by others, some apps wont restore; TT sits there in restore mode with nothing happening. This is on several apps.
3..Menu/Backup data to XML Bookmarks=yes Messages=yes Call log=crash/'Unfortunately, TT bup has stopped.'
4..Several other annoyances in reliability but the above are most important.
I have politely asked Titanium for support but they dont bother answering. After a few days waiting I gave the app a feedback of 1 on Play thinking that would get some response but no!
In 20 years of computer work, I have never had a software supplier with such a terrible support policy, and the feedback page for this app supports this comment.
Im sorry to have to come to this forum asking for help, but the Titanium folks leave me no choice.
As an aside I also use 'Backup Your Mobile' which IMHO is better at restoring settings and reliably restores apps with settings at no cost if you can put up with the ads.
Kind regards,
Alistair.
Since this post and no replies I have submitted 2 more support requests with TTBup support which is done via a web page interface. I even supplied a small video showing the problem. Alogcat does not report any errors which is odd.
Still no replies from TTBup support.
