[Q] android market downloading problem

I have a problem with downloading apps from the android market. everytime I try to download one it gets stuck on "Downloading"
Now before u jump at me saying that it is a common problem and that I should search it up, just know that I did search not just here but all over google and did find some sulotions but nothing seemed to work.
some of the sulotions I tried:
clearing data and cache for download manager, market, google apps etc..
uninstalling a bunch of apps and wiping dalvik cache
factory reset, which worked but after a couple of days the problem came back.
I'm runnig MIUI 2.2.3 (android 2.3.7) on my htc desire hd

Please can someone help?

You did force close the market and reopen it right?
Also, try a different google account

I don't believe that's the problem because I just found out that I can't download files through the miui browser as well, but I can download with firefox for android. Based on that I believe that it has something to do with the download manager maybe, but as I mentioned before I already tried clearing its data.. any thoughts?

I have this problem on my CM9 Photon....

this is happening on my phone. it's stuck on the notification thing even tho it's been installed.

If you have the dalvik to cache the cache apps won't download

Perhaps you have some internet settings changed through apps e.g. droidwall, lbe privacy guard, tethering apps? When I have problems with market downloads, I have to reboot phone then clear data/cache for download manager and market.
Try using mobile data instead of wifi, or vice versa.

My dalvik cache is located in /data and not in /cache if that's what u ment, though I have a dalvik-cache folder inside /cache but it's empty..

[Q] Insufficient Storage, but 14.7GB free

I just installed ExynosAbuse APK v1.40 and i now have root so i could regain my copy/paste function back. (I delete everything in data>clipboard)
However now when i go to install any app i get the error, insufficient storage. As the title says I have ~15gb free (says the settings>storage). Even when uninstalling an app I cannot re install it as it says i have insufficient space. For example, i uninstalled angry birds SW (which was 60mb) and i cannot reinstall it, or any other apps.
Oh, and i uninstalled the Exynosabuse (but left root enabled) and now i cannot reinstall it to disable root. I also tried uninstalling the google play updates, and nothing changed. Installing apps with either google play or ES file manager gives the same result (insufficient storage space)
Thanks for the help.
UPDATE:
I found the problem, and solution in post 20

I had the same problem with an app i tried installing once, but it only happened with that particular app. Maybe try wiping cache and dalvik cache.

Did you wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery mode?
Sent from my GT-N8013 using XDA Premium HD app

Im trying a factory reset now since i've only owned this thing for a few days. Though if anyone knows a solution to this, please post. I've came across a few threads with a similar problem and they have gone unsolved.

You should do it in recovery mode.

If you are getting it for a particular app then try searching for the it using its name it must have left some file over during your previous installion delete all files with the app name and try installing it should install
Try uninstalling the update of play store by going into settings applications
The first one should do the trick

All of the apps in the play store that i tired (ones that haven't been installed before) gave the same error, not just ones previously installed. I also deleted some bloatware updates and tried to reinstall their updates afterwards. The problem persists.
I did uninstall the playstore updates and clearing the cache. Nothing changed.
I've restored to factory and its working again. Crappy solution though..
thanks for the help

I solved this problem with lucky patcher. Run it when you have this problem and it will remove the unused odex file. Then install normally and you shouldn't have the error. I found this happens to me when uninstalling modified apks and trying to install the official app after.

i only have this Problem when there is less than 500mb free space.
common -.- i want to install a 2mb apk File And it complains because there is only 490mb free space -.- any way to change that?

I did have lucky patcher installed when i had this problem. When opening the program it did remove some odex files but the problem was still there. Is there an option to force it to check for odex files?

You could check your data/apps folder and check if there's an apk for the file there. If it is delete and try to reinstall

Well it's happening again.
How do I get into recovery mode to delete dalvik cache? Is that where you hold down power and the volume button, cause I don't see anywhere to delete the cache when im in there. It's just a screen thqts says downloading.
I cleard the dalvik cache In link2sd but it says it's empty. Also cleared app cache with link2sd.
I did notice that the system file space is at 17% (243mb left) which is still large enough to install the apps I'm trying. I have 25gb free out of 32gb.
This problem is not limited to one app. It also happens with apps that never been installed on this tablet.
Thanks for the help.

Did you try what I mentioned
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Power+Volume Up until you see the GTN8000 or whatever model you have screen then leave power button while keep pressing the volume up button until you get into recovery

Dude i suggested going into recovery and wiping cache and dalvik cache a while ago but got no response. You didnt ask how if you didnt know and you obviously didn't search for it. Not trying to be rude here but it just is a little irritating when you try to help and you get ignored. Volume up and power till you see the boot screen then let go. And youll see wipe cache, do it. Then scroll to advanced and then to wipe dalvik cache, do it. Then go back to the firdt sceen and select reboot.
Also gmfeny had a suggestion did you try that?

The first time you mentioned it i had already did a factory reset and my GN was working for the moment. When the problem came back i said i tried it in link 2 sd and i did boot to what it thought was recovery mode (i did google it but i must have miss read. I was holding power and volume down to get into recovery screen) and didnt see anywhere to delete dalvik cache. I should have stated clearly that i needed help on getting to the right place.
I will try that next.
gmfeny, I have looked in data>apps and nothing about the apps im trying to install is there. Also this problem isnt limited to apps that i've previously installed. So I wouldnt expect anything to be in there on those apps. However there is a folder im not sure about. its not very big (256KB) and its names mcRegistry.
I'm not sure if its a big deal, and further since no one seemed to have commented on it. Is there a problem with my system file space as mentioned above? (17% left, 250MB)
thanks
I have the GTN80013 (32gb no GSM/cdma)
Im in recovery mode now and i selected wipe cache partition. I dont see anywhere that says advanced. The only options i have are; reboot, apply update from external storage, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, apply update from cache.
still cannot install some apks. I tried to install appinstaller (which i've never installed/tried to install from the play store) and it failed. Also my game emulators failed to install with ES file explorer.

I was able to clear the dalvik cache by gong to data/dalvik-cache And deleting everything. after restarting it waa rebuilt. still can't install apps.
Maybe it's not the same as doing it in recovery, but that's not an option in my recovery mode from what I can see.
Thank for the help

I finally solved my problem.
I had installed Link2SD and a setting in that app was causing the problem.
The Fix:
Open up the menu (context menu) > settings
Click on install location and change it from External to Automatic.
I can install app now.
The only strange part is when i first had this problem, i didnt have this app installed. As suggested above, it was probably the Dalvik cache.
For anyone who has problems finding the 'clear dalvik cache' in recovery mode; You can use lucky patcher to delete it. Its in the menu>trouble shooting> delete dalvik cache and reboot.
Or you can do it manually by going to data>dalvik-cache and deleting everything in there.
Thanks for the help!

Did you wipe cache dalvik cache format system and installed gapps?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium

I've had this problem a lot on multiple phones. Sometimes its just a temporary server issue.
Try:
1) Removing your Google account and re-adding it
2) clear your Google Play cache in settings
3) turn your internet of and on again
4) reboot your device
If it still isn't fixed, I would contact Google and ask them hope this helped

[Q] [Help needed] [cm10] Play Store FC [Solved]

Hello guys.
I've got installed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2138707 (cm10 by loSconosciuto) on my i9003L.
I'm suffering FC on Play Store. I've just look for many threads of posible solutions, without luck.
After 've installed the 20130512 version of the cm10 (after several updates without problems at all) the play store is fc all the time. Then i've updated the last version (20130515) of the rom, begging for the problem to be solved. No luck.
I've tried clearing the store data and cache, the google framework cache, without luck. I've search for disabled google related apps, i haven't found anything.
In my searches, I've seen so many cases where one user did a clear installation, just to get the same problem after that.
So, there is some tip or fix to try before doing a fresh install?

You tried to wipe cache and dalvik and reflash gapps again?. May be it helps you.

Yes, in the matter in facts, i've flashed a new rom version, making me reflash the gapps and wipe both cache and dalvik cache.

Try to install another gapps package like (gapps xs) maybe your flashable zip is corrupted or you can extact google play from a nandroidbackup and push it to system manually.

[Q] fc google map

can anyone suggest a fix for google maps FC as soon as i select it ive tried uninstall re install im on [UPDATE][ROM][[★DarkFantasy™★ ][★SONY MINI APPS★][★DF-2★][4.2.2][P31XX]

try clearing maps data and cache
Try clearing maps data and cache. go to settings->apps->all apps tab -> maps application -> clear data and clear cache
Normally all such fc's are because of data being incompatible after updating.
If that dosn't work, try going to recovery and wipe advanced - > dalvik cache and then fix permissions then reboot.
It worked for me for google play music hope it does for u too.

easiest way!
factory reset ur tab!
plz click thanks, it matters a lot! )
