I bought a refurbished Xoom 3G a couple of weeks ago. The first thing I did was flash the Xoom wifi sbf file via rsd lite because I wanted to be able to OTA to JB. This seemed to work fine. Flashed the sbf fine, booted right up, updated to JB. I threw about a dozen games (angry birds, spirit, quell, etc.) on and let my kids play with it for a couple of days. About 1/10 times when launching a game the xoom will freeze and I will have to hard reboot it to get out of it. So I flashed the Xoom 3G fastboot files to return it back to stock ICS, assuming maybe that was the problem. Loaded the games back on it. It is still freezing up quite frequently when launching a game. I am starting to think maybe it is a hardware problem in which case I will have to send it back. Anyone else have similar issues? Any ideas before I send this thing back?

I've been running VEGAn beta3 since it came out, had the latest market working and showing off the tab to coworkers. Turned it off while I ran some errands after work and when I got home fired it up. Had to agree to the market when I tried to browse the market and after agreeing I had the incomplete access. Had to do the "fix" three or four times to get it to work.
First time I ever lost the market after getting it working....
Weird.

Haven't had this issue (yet). Been running beta 3 for over 24 hours, which is a bit of a record for me.
I am running the old Market, FYI - new Market just FC's on me.
I tried a few times after initial install of Beta3 to use the old Market but it would never work (the hack part). So I flashed the new Market on which I had successfully run on TnT-lite 2.2.0.
I've had the market running on Android emulators on my PC with no issues.....this was just a weird experience as I've never had it "working" and then not working on the next boot.
It's working now...so that's all that matters......just was very weird. Throwing it out there in case anyone else experiences it...
Weird this morning....
Powered up.....swiped to "unlock" and made sure I had a WiFi connection......went to the Market and got the "Accept" agreement again. This time the Market was fully functional but again...just weird
Update:
Oh well.....just tried the Market and it's "crippled" again. This is very strange.
Switching back to TnTLite for now....
Is your user data partition screwed up? That could cause the disappearing market. Oh and did you wipe when you came from TNT?? Can't think of any other explanation for this as nobody else has reported this and we've had beta 3 for several days.

Yep...wiped, data is fine.
Back on TnT lite with no issues.
It could have been the market trying to update itself from the 2.2.6 to the 2.2.7 that is out now. I am running the old market now....

I just started my tablet tonight and I went to market to look around and I was met with the original agreement option for the market. I excepted and then went to market to find it almost empty. Anyone else had this happen? I tried to do the fix again but it didn't work.
I'm still on 3389 with enhancement.
Ideas?
UPDATE: NVM. I ran the fix two more times and second time it worked!
same thing here...also on 3389 plus enhancemente
you know though that the market has been kinda crazy lately...not just with gtabs...maybe a google issue.

That is how I fix mine. It happens every now and again. Not sure if the something in the framework itself updates or mis-aligns with the market on there, itself but I find that I just need to run the fix 1 or 2 times and it works after that.
Not sure if this is related or not, but while I was able to install Beautiful Widgets, it can't find the free wallpaper in the market. Also I was looking for Jet Car Stunts Lite since there are a number of articles about it today, but while it appears on my Nexus One it doesn't show on the G-tab. Any ideas? Is it possible for me to put it on my Nexus One and then copy it over, or is the problem that the market thinks it isn't compatible with the Tegra chip, or...?
I have had trouble with market acting womky on stock w/ enhance, tnt lite and vegan....either its the hack we use or Google i shaving trouble. My guess would be the hack but I could be wrong.

I got my tablet about two weeks ago and installed tnt lite. My market was perfect for about Three days and then apps started disappearing. I now have vegan and most major apps do not appear. I'd say I have about 90% of the market
I have up till now been having no real issues with my g2x. (knock on wood) Tonight however I am having trouble downloading from the market. I have 2 other android phones and neither one of those are having any problems. I can eventually download, but it takes many tries and a long time to start once it finally does. The download itself is still very fast however. Does anyone have any advise or ideas about what may be causing this??
I am also having this problem. But im using EaglesBlood rom it also used to happen on my n1.
I also had a problem just yesterday downloading from the market. It would download at about 1% every 10 seconds..... I was in a 4G area so I am not sure what happened. Never happened before though.
I'm new to these forums so I'm not really sure if this is a known problem but I'll give you guys a little background of what lead to my issue.
So I rooted my Droid X last night using SuperOneClick and worked fine. Downloaded a bunch of root apps including ROM Manager and Bootstrap. I backed up my phone using bootstrap perfectly fine and everything was working good until this afternoon when I did another backup after getting rid of a few old unused apps. During the back up process, my phone crashes and goes into the reboot screen. It stayed on the M logo for a good half hour. I finally pulled the battery and loaded into recovery mode. I attempted to restore my backup from the previous night multiple times but it kept freezing in the middle of the process. After several battery pulls (I know not a very good idea but i didn't know what else to do) my X finally turned on normally but it was like a brand new phone. I don't know much about the backup process but from what I've read, my phone is supposed to be just like how it was, now restored.
I've linked my google account so I can get everything back, my photos/videos are still there and from the apps that I've tried to use, they're like the way they were (haven't tried any games yet because theyre still downloading).
However I'm tempted to try another attempt at loading my back up now that I'm home but is it a good idea? Or is linking google accounts the way bootstrap backs up apps? My phone is currently still downloading all my old apps that i got off the marketplace so I might just wait until thats finished, then maybe think about.
BTW: For some reason my phone can't connect to 3G either. Earlier today it was fine and I was even surprised that I got 3G at work which I never get. But half way through the day it just went back to normal phone connection. I thought it was because of my work but now that I'm back at my house I still don't have 3G connection. Is this an issue with my phone or do you think it's just my connection?
Thanks so much for the help
So I picked up a refurbed Transformer about a month ago. I rooted it a few weeks ago and everything has been okay. A few lockups here and there, but I was running a custom kernal so whatever. Then a few days ago my GPS starts searching all the time. This was a few days after installing the .21 rooted update. I put GPS Status on it, and it worked for a while. It started up again yesterday, so I flashed an old backup, it worked, until I rebooted. To try and keep it short, it seemed that yesterday if I flashed a new ROM or backup, it would work fine, until I rebooted the device. Well, while trying to NVflash, my recovery got borked so now I'm back to pure stock.
I've tried it on stock .19, .21, rooted, unrooted, let it sit for 30 minutes. It will sometimes pick up 10 satellites with decent signal, but will not get a fix. After the first couple of flashes yesterday, it took about 5s to get a fix.
I've tried:
Clear cache/Delvik cache
Flashed backups
Nvflashed back to stock unrooted
GPS fix, GPS Status, GPS test from the market.
It's just odd that with no changes it went from great to bleh. Any help would be great. Sorry about the book.

I had this problem too... I fixed it by modifying the gps.conf file to use some US Navy ntp servers instead of the stock ones... get fix within 20 seconds the first time, and like 1 or 2 seconds rverytime after that... pm me and I'll send it to you... You're rooted right??
^^^The force is strong with this one.^^^ Thanks!
