Im a proud owner of the samsung galaxy s wifi 4.2 . I play minecraft pocket edition a lot, I download custom maps and mods, but since a few days if I download something it will be completed inmediatly, but it sais "download failed" . This is to ZIP files and .apk files (I tried so far) but I can still download well by the market.
I looked through all my settings, online and general(phone).
I tried putting my device off/on, take out the battery, reboot and I even installed some apps that should help, but they wont. NOTHING HELPS. It keeps saying DOWNLOAD FAILED.
If you can, please post your answer below,
Thnx

Do you remember when it happened exactly?
After installing, or updating, some app?
For me it sounds like something messed up your phone.
Maybe minecraft itself.
Did you try to download with web browser like mozilla or so?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I didnt knw it was that easy, I just installed Mozilla Firefox, And from there I was able to download everything again

Cheers for the download. The market I'm running looks identical as far as I can tell.. do you know if there's anyway to check the version of what market you have?
Yes indeed you can download atrackdog from the market and it should say version number you have and wether there is an update or not
Sent from Inc via premuim app
Menu/apps/all or running/market.... it will say what version you have at the top... I don't think all of the roms are setup to work with any market
Yeah my thoughts but like I said if you know what you are doing or at least make a back up of the old market apk just in case it forcloses or even a nadroid, it won't hurt lol

Sorry but not seeing backup old market or nand in your instructions...
Usually if it doesn't work you can just uninstall update in menu
Just checked my version, looks like I've been running this version for 3-4+ months now

Usually when someone says " like I said" that means they already stated it. Sorry I thought you'd of understood what I was saying. Carry on
yeah looks like this is old news lol. CM7 has had 2.3.6 for a while now.
For those wanting to check your Market version, no need to download an app to do it. Just go Settings > Applications > All Apps > Market.
thx

I am running Cyanogen 6.1.0. It has the old market. I downloaded the apk you provided, then used APK Manager to install it. It reported the application was not installed and sure enough I still have the old Market.
Any ideas how I can upgrade?
Umm weird, it should overwrite the old market
Try deleting old market using root explorer the ln reinstall new market

I did try delete the old Market using Titanium Backup, and it did delete it. Then I installed the new Market using several installers, but the installers all say "Application not installed".
Did you try to move the apk to system/app ? Then reboot?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
I did and it just would not show up in my apps. Eventually I came across a file someone put up which I flashed and it did install the new market. So, I am OK now.
alrighty good for you

Come on guys, this is preety general for an android problem. At least one person should have replied by now.

Do you have the logcat of what the Package Manager said?
That error is usually caused when the download isn't complete, I.e. the file is not proper...
That said, if you were sideloading the app, and you believe that you have the complete file (.apk), then you can uninstall the original app, and place the new app in system/app, give appropriate permissions and reboot...
You need root acces for the abobe, and the method in general is referred to as the root explorer method...

So I need to give it root access and then try to install the apk again but in the system app section? And to add there is this app on there called "video player" it basically functions like the Google YouTube app but not as good. But sometimes when I go to see the not-yet-installed YouTube apk on my SD card it has the "video player" icon. I don't have any problem with sideloading any other apk on there so could that be the problem?

For some reason some app doesnt work for me too, so i get problem parsing package . I used to have parsing package problem with flash player on my atrix4g then after some time i installed it and it worked good im not sure if its coz they fixed anything thro updates or it just coz i made some changes into my device i still can't download google books on it but my friend who has the same device and android version can. what im trying to say is you could try older versions of the app or if you really need it you can install custom rom , btw i can't install youtube either on my atrix i still work with an old version that came with the stock .

Generic youtube app provided by manufacturer causing OFFICIAL one to never install. *simplified*
How old is the atrix? Sounds strange if you cant even install google books. Maybe that could be a problem with the phone, not just older software.

I would guess you have some sort of "ad-blocking" software installed. Check your Apps listing for something like "ad-away" or the likes.
Might also want to check browser settings as well, although I've never run into the issue.

So just recently cydia substrate has come to android with winter board. I wanted to try this out but its not working for me. I'm not sure if this tablet isn't compatible or maybe I did something wrong try this out and tell me if it works if it doesn't can you tell me what your problem is thanks. To get cydia substrate u must first b rooted then go into the play store type in "cydia" and and look for an app called "cydia substrate"devolped by sauritik LLC press install then when it opens the installer press the reboot button. When your device Boots up again open cydia substrate if or having trouble finding it check for it to be named "substrate" open extension gallery and you SHOULD see winter board under featured apps. The problem I'm having is it doesn't say that it says something bout stock browser. If it works plz tell me what u did if it doesn't plz post ur problem

Wow, I thought you were trolling. Im surprised he is bringing cydia over. Hmmm, im a little curios as to how it will pan out, especially with android's fragmentation. Ill install it and see how it goes.

Yeah, says the same thing for me with both Sammy stock, and stock browser on jellybam.
Edit: what i did was just download the winterboard app from the play store , then restarted the "zygote"/launcher. It then said " that i don't have any compatible themes installed". I'm not sure what themes are used, and really do not see the point of this service in it's current state.

Okay so I've tried Googling this and posting this question in another thread but couldn't find/get an answer, so I thought I'd try to get help here. Awhile ago I installed either a 4.2 or 4.1 ROM (I can't remember), but whichever one it was, the market would show apps that weren't compatible with my 4.0 ROM. Such as GTA Vice City, The Sims 3, NBA 2K, etc. I then flashed back to a 4.0 ROM later on and those apps disappeared again. Now that I'm back on a 4.2 ROM, its not showing those apps. I was wondering what I can do to get those apps to show up again so I'm not forced to get the APK off the web. I know they're compatible with my phone because I've played those games before and they ran perfectly. Can anyone help?

HY, you can try wipe google play cache ,and restart the apk ,it might work,but if it doesnt try download google play on the web .PLEASE PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED!!!!!!
Are you sure that is the same 4.2 rom you use before? Maybe the app has been removed from the market temporarily. Use the Web play store to verify this. Good luck!

Its not the same 4.2 ROM that I had before and the apps haven't been removed at all. This ROM uses vending.apk instead of phomesky.apk and maybe that's why? Not sure. Thanks for your suggestions though.
