I want to publish my stupid app, but I cant!

I made the world's lamest app because my wife won't let me squish spiders... She wants me to take it outside. I called it Spider Squisher.
I signed up for a Google developer account about 1 month ago and now I am trying to upload my app. When go to https://market.android.com/publish and try to publish an app. I
1. select the app by clicking browse
2. click upload
3. receive the following dialog box pop-up
Unable to parse response. If you have a browser extension or add-on installedwhich changes the JSON response, please disable and refresh this page.

Then
4. when I click back, I get a dialog popup that says
Unable to process the uploaded file. Please check if it exceeds the size limit.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and it's only 13Kb!
5. I click back again after clicking OK on the dialog and I get to my developer console.
6. I click "edit profile" or "Setup Merchant Account" and it takes me back to the Android Developer Console (basically refreshes the page Https://market.anrdoid.com/publish/Home)
I have tried using the following
Ubuntu Desktop 10.10 computer 1:
Firefox
Firefox in safe mode (firefox -safe)
Google Chrome
Windows computer Windows 7 home 2:
Windows Internet Explorer
Windows Internet Explorer in safe mode
Windows 7 Starter Computer 3
Another Windows internet explorer
Ubuntu 10.10 netbook Computer 4
Another firefox
My Phone- Samsung Captivate running Andromeda3 (Android 2.2)
My phone webkit
Windows XP Home Virtual machine 1
Windows Internet Explorer
Windows XP pro Virtual machine 2
Windows Internet Explorer
Nothing is working! I still get the errors above
I opened up a java console and see a whole bunch of errors relating to border-radius, align, cursor, zoom, user-select, and filter on the market.android.com/publish/gwt/*.css... about 20 warnings in all. Nothing I can point a finger at though.
What's going on? I'm flipping out here... I just want to publish this stupid apk file myself.
I have my receipt to the android market. It's linked to my google account. It's been over a month and I'm still receiving this message
Your Registration to the Android Market is still being processed.
You can upload applications to the Android Market but you cannot publish until your registration is completed.

Attached is the "Spider Squisher" apk file. I would like to publish this myself.... Is there something wrong with my APK?

Yes this is a hello world app... Please tell me I didn't just download a virus.

No, it is not a virus. I am frustrated with the google publishing process. It won't let me upload!

The market is pretty buggy at times, last weekend i tried for 3 days to update an app without success.
I had the exact same error you had, after sometime i just said f*** this and went to sleep. Sometime next day it worked.
Don't give up hope!

K... I've been trying for 2 days now.

Somewhere i also read that he had the same message, which was very misleading because he got it as he was not yet fully unlocked to use the market.
Seems you are not either? Maybe this could be it too.
They wire you some cents money, which you have to type into a field to complete registration, did you do that?

That is for a sales account. I did not set that portion up. I am not accepting money for this. However, I i tried, and It's doing the same thing as clicking on my account which I mentioned earlier. The market appears to be fully broken and inoperative here. I just don't understand. Who can we call about this?

No one.
You can probably fill out a form somewhere, thats the google way im afraid.
They don't support phonesupport.

I can't find the form... that's why im here on the forums. I could not find a form or email address.

Can anyone help me? Where do I contact google market?

Here is the form http://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/bin/request.py?contact_type=publishing
Litterally, within 1 minute of hitting submit, I received an email apologizing for the delay.
Now when I log into the developer console I see
Your Registration to the Android Market is approved!
You can now upload and publish software to the Android Market.

Click to collapse
And I can upload apps!

Interesting, must be their cunning plan to cut down on the amount of junk apps that just aim to get ad clicks.
(Not saying yours is - I like the sound of it lol)
Have you made a Boss Spider with your wifes face on it yet

download manager

Hi,
Call me a noob, but I DID try to search for it, but could not find anything that would suit me. I do sometimes download ROMs using 3g network(unlimited data plan) but when its too big, sometimes happens that it gets disconnected in midway and never resumes in the original download manager in browser. So I am looking for some download manager, that would allow me to pause/resume downloads, or perhaps resume from where it stopped by disconnection.
any Idias? I have tried some on android market, but could not find any useful
Free are prefered

Hi, try "Download all files" from market.. its blue icon with white arrow inside ;-) hope this help

I dont have problem downloading any files, so basically this will not help, I have it downloaded anyway, but I dont think it supports pause/resume function

And you mean sites like: megaupload, rapidshare ... ?if yes, try this
androidzoom dot com/android_applications/tools/jdownloaderrc_hyhy.html

No, currently I have in mind this: http://www.baadnwz.eu/search/label/stable The file has 277mb, and ALWAYS fails at 22%. I believe that some downloader would allow me to start again and continue after 22%, rather than start again as the build in downloader does

Byte tornado downloader or Synodroid from market is that, what you looking for, i hope

I'm currently using Xwind Downloader
https://market.android.com/details?id=cn.com.android.surefan&feature=search_result
It monitors the clipboard and also intercepts downloads from your browser, the interface and translation is still a little wonky but it works decently.

Gameloft games

Dears,
I purchased lets golf 2 hd from gameloft wap store,and installed it, when i opened the game a message appears for checking the files, after that " the game requires additional 120 MBs to run on your device" when i press >> (YES), a windows appears with the message " A problem occurred and download couldn't be completed successfully.

Your wifi needs to disconnect then reconnect.
I was/am having wifi problems.
It still says connected but doesn't work. I think it happens when the phone goes to sleep.

Ask Gameloft for support. They've been known to give free games to some people who have had problems as well.

i tried everything i even tried the cracked version for some of gameloft games
still same problem
i tried to disconnect and reconnect again but with no luck
i sent them couple of mails but they didn't reply ?
i guess i will have to wait
thank you my friends for trying to help me
appreciate your help

Are you using an ad blocker? if so that could be the problem.
Try revertig it if u use one.

Or could you're router firewall be blocking the port used by gameloft to download the game

Sometimes these games just act stupid. After my last restore I had to retry the download for Asphalt 6 like 50 times, but then Eternal Legacy worked the first time and Sacred Odyssey took like 3 tries.

Gameloft doesn't respond to emails for some reason. I had to call them. They also gave me free games for clicking download to many times and not going into My Downloads first. If you try to re-download the game t charges you again. So technically I did pay for them. But they were nice about it. (Accept they wouldn’t just refund it )

i have the same problem

I am having the same problem with all of the gameloft games... Has anyone come up with the solution yet ?

Might as well be SD card issues. You could try a to back-up your information and format the SD card.

phone is brand new, sd card brand new.. even so, tryed formating, tryed factory reset.. nothing helps

i have the same problem with modern combat 3. i paid for it . but i can't download data to play. any solution? thx

Had the same problem
What i had to do is to download the game data on my computer and copy it to my android/data for it to work/

[Q] downloading files

I currently access a website that has the ability to download selected files from the click of a hyperlink. (on the PC). You just click on the link and the files come down and a dialog box opens with the downloaded file asking, to open it or save it.
When I try to do the same on my phone the website appears to be accepting depressing the link, however nothing appears on my phone and I cannot find the file anywhere space on the phone. It may be downloading the file in the file structure but I cannot find it. My friend who has an iPhone does the same thing and the file opens up immediately on his phone just like you would on a PC.
I can open these files if they are sent to me in an e-mail but not by depressing this hyperlink on the website.
Anyone have any ideas?
ps: the phone is a stock Charge with the latest GB update.

Usually you'd see an arrow in the Status Bar when something is actually downloading. You can also check the Downloads app in your App Drawer, providing you have it.
It sounds to me like it's simply not downloading for some reason You could try another Browser to see if you have the same problem.

I tried using the dolphin browser but still no luck. I looked in the downloads folder and did not see it. The particular link on the website itself is a function that automatically begins a download stream to the your device. When using a PC, a dialog box opens up asking if you want to open the file or save it. I get no reaction when using my android phone. I know the function works on a mobile device since a friend of mine with an iPhone perform the same function and it downloaded to his phone.
Any other ideas?

What is the website you are trying to download from?
Anyway, try Opera Mobile first, NOT the MINI version,but "Opera Mobile".
Its the only browser who allowes me to download from any source I tried so far:
https://market.android.com/details?...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5vcGVyYS5icm93c2VyIl0.

Wow, thanks very much for the help yukinok25. Looks like the Opera Mini browser, which I assume is similar to what's in the iPhone works perfectly. The website I am accessing this link is a secure server so I cannot tell you the website.

[Q] GTA lll: 10 year anniversary

Hi guys
I downloaded and installed the 8.67MB file from the Android Market on my XOOM but when I open the app it says "You have to download additional files to play" this is 442MB and the app closes when it reaches 1% or 2. You guys have any idea why this happens and any solution?

It might be because of their servers. You do have enough space, right?
Also, shouldn't this be available for Galaxy S2 as well? I can't find it in the Android Market.

Then the servers are really a little bit to busy.
Just try it in some hours again.

That's not a logical reason, is it? cause it tells me i don't have an active connection.
