A weird new issue started last night. Once you select a app to download its like its stuck in queue. It says starting download forever yet it never downloads. Although I purchased a paid app and it downloaded right away. I tried it on multiple networks, wifi. Multiple restarts. I'm running 5.0G. Anyone else having a similar issue?
I think everyone on the G builds is having the issue. It was ok for me yesterday, but doesn't work today, so it looks like something has changed on the Market that is prevent G builds from downloading (H builds are fine apparently).
Regards,
Dave
Yeah I just figured that out after catching up on the Haykuro thread. I can download purchased apps fine though. Makes no sense to me.
G Build here as well. I can't update dxTop, which is a paid app. Anyone think Google/T-Mo did this intentionally to thwart people running the homebrewed Android?
That dosent make sense to me though as when you just purchase a app it downloads fine. If it is indeed Google then I'll just get H. But I am gonna wait another day before doing that.
oo yea i cant dl apps too, i was thinkin im alone
If you wait long enough(like 10-11 FREAKING HOURS!!!) it'll eventually dl and install. I think they're doing an upgrade to the market to handle cupcake and LucidREM seems to agree with me, so this seems to just be termporary..

Hi all
As the various versions taking over our phones, I notices some phenomena that also occurs with several over people I've talked to.
While trying to download Apps via market , the download doesn't start. The market does initiate the download procedure - The Download bar appears etc , but the actual download will not start even after hours of waiting.
However , by rebooting the phone or simply toggling the 3G / WIFI off and on (the same problem happens with both types of connection), the download starts immediately.
Now , at first I thought that maybe the connection is constantly failing , but all kind of automatic updates like news , weather etc are working all the time , and of course the Net surfing and market access are possible.
It seems that the restart required just for apps download.
I don't know if it's because of Apps2SD or something else , but it happens to several people I know about and with several different builds (CYanogen and JackHero are those I remember specifically )
I would be more than welcome for any kind of reply , eevn hearing that you personally have no problems with apps downloads.
Thanx
Sometimes that happens to me. I just cancel the download and restart it and it works again. A reboot helps too.
It happens to me now and then as well. I just cancel the download and try again a little later. Normally works without a reboot.
I have actually been experiencing this all day... I keep canceling the download and rebooting, but none of this has been helping. I also cleared the marked cache...
i've been experiencing this all day... i don't want to cancel my download because it's a paid app and if i cancel then restart i don't have a choice for a refund. =/
i tried toggling the wifi on and off but doesn't seem to work, gonna try rebooting, i've already been waiting for like 10 hours... lol.
I'm running the latest Cyanogen 3.9.? (the experimental one.)
Well , all this is kinda bad, but at least I know now it's not my hardware.
I tried to leave post in Developers section , but they threaten to ban me for nagging
So I guess we need more information in order to start fixing it.
2 questions for now -
1) What rom version you use (I'm mostly interested in finding someone with official rom that have the same problem, i'm using Cyanogen 3.6.8.1 myself)
2) Are you using T-Mobile or not (for example I'm using the phone in Israel , and they're not even imported to here yet)

i'm using 3.9.1 by Cyanogen on T-Mobile.
i heard toggling the wifi on and off has worked for a few people, also rebooting the phone while it's dowloading has worked for others but it hasn't worked for me all day... i've tried both and nothing. i even re-flashed my phone and still nothing. they won't even start downloading. i'm gonna try JACHeroski rom right now to see what happens. be back with the results in a bit.

I thought Google Checkout allows for refunds within 24hrs, no? I've had this issue but only when I have poor service.
i cant believe nobody has mentioned this yet.
cyanogen has FIXED this problem. the problem lies in the fact that whenever you download something, google collects anonymous usage data. a lot of the time, this process fails and causes the download to hang.
if you want to fix the problem, check this thread.

WOW , thanx a lot , I'll try it asap.
I have a weird issue and I'm not sure what's going on.
A few days ago I noticed that the market layout got changed a little bit. The three tabs on top changed to Apps|Games|T-mobile. Going to the t-mobile tab shows recommendations from t-mobile. The next day I noticed that it was gone and back to the original Apps|Games|Downloads, and the weird part is that now the market icon is back to the 1.6 one (I've had the android 2.0 icon for a while since I'm running cyanogen).
Oh and I checked with aTrackdog and it says I have Market v1.66 and there's a v1.71 available. Any idea what's going on?
I have a G1 on t-mobile and running CM v4.2.9.1
edit: I feel like this is an app issue and not an issue with the ROM, hence the posting in the apps section. Also, it happened randomly and not immediately after I updated to the newest CM release or something.
Things just get jittery when running apps2sd which you probably are.
I didn't know rooted phones were suppose to get that Update.
So idk you really shouldn't be getting OTA updates like that ESPESH from Tmobile.
So there was actually an update for the market for non-rooted G1 users on t-mo? When did that roll out?

Yea, it's been rolling out/bloggers/sites have been asking if anyone has gotten and it's seemed like it was rolling out, then got pulled back and delayed a lot.
But all the Update does it replace Mydownloads with Tmobiles lame apps.
But the main part about this is it allows you to buy applications and place the cost on your tmobile bill so you don't nessicarily need a credit card which is really cool.
But I'm pretty sure Cyan already twatted it's not likely to get ported to rooted phones or something like that which is understandable since it deals with Tmobile's billing info.
Oh okay thanks for the clarification. It's weird that the update got rolled out to me. I guess it didn't go through the regular OTA update 'channels' or something. I follow a few android blogs and didn't see any mention of it. Anyway I don't really care about adding the cost to my bill, both options are the same to me. As for the tab, yeah the t-mo tab is pretty stupid, I don't care about their recommendations, plus it means it's an extra click to get to my downloads.
So I guess in theory if I reflash the ROM I should at least get the android 2.0 market icon back? I'm gonna wait til tomorrow and try it (since I guess Cyanogen is releasing an update tomorrow)

The change has NOTHING to do with having a rooted phone. In fact, it has nothing to do with the application itself. It is all on the server end.
There are a few bugs that they need to work out before deploying it to the masses. I have been running Cyan's newest ROM since it was released and my tabs have changed from Download to Tmobile and back. Why? Because it's coming from Google's server as such.

Did your icon also revert to the 1.6 one? Anyway I guess that's good news. Means that future changes like this will also roll out to rooted phones.
I really don't think a T Mobile Recomonded tab in the Android market is coming from the Google Server I think it's Tmobile controlling it's phones like when they took the Tether app off the US market and how the Droids market is different than others.
Flashed the newest CM today and it didn't fix the market icon, still have the 1.6 one. It's not a big issue but I just find it weird that the icon got reverted back (if it's just server side changes the icon shouldn't be affected).
I noticed the same thing. I had the default Market, a few days later I noticed it had a T-Mobile button then all of the sudden it appears to be back to the default.
I just simply gave up and said whatever anymore.
verizon already has the new market with VERIZON were our downloads are.
I also have the updated market in a nandroid from cyans rom.
My hero seems like it should be headed for the trash. Over the past few days I have been noticing problems getting my gmail to sync, browsing the internet and looking up things in the marketplace. I am running stock 1.5 that was rooted. That is it. I have tried going to setting and updating profile then rebooting but doesnt seem to have solved the problem. I also just tried flashing cyanogenmod 6.1.0 release and I was unable to sign into my google account at startup??
The phone does show an internet connection. Opera browser doesnt appear to be having any issues, but any other app does... any advise would be great!
I'm having the exact same problem. I have no idea what to do, I've tried everything for 4 hours now. My internet is so sketchy. Everything from google maps losing connection, to facebook, to a weather widget I have not even getting the weather. Its insane
i'll take the phone to a dumb sprint rep if needed, but what about if they see FLIPZ_PRI and stuff on the phone because it has been rooted? There has to be something here to fix the problem?
If you figure it out let us all know because i am having the same problem. I have done just about everything i can think of. From reflashing roms to 5 different kernals and even different roms nothing helps.
Good luck
well if a lot of people are having the same problem doesnt that seem to sound like a sprint issue??? i have no idea what updating prls and profiles due, but something isnt right.
Been having similar issues myself. From what I've been reading it's a Google server issue which is why you can still browse the web etc... but still like the market isn't working correctly.
Don't take my word for it though...
Internet problems
I've had the same issue on and off all day. I first noticed youtube not working, then facebook and then voice. YouTube wasn't working for a few hours, facebook a few minutes and voice just got working again; all my problems started sometime this morning 10ish.
I'm running Cyanogenmod 6.1.0, 2.42.01.04.27 Baseband, 60670PRL and my kernel is Decad3nc #11
Sprint is currently havng 3G issues, Chicago looks to be fixed (maybe)
as of the last 30 minutes to an hour, all is right with the market and internet on my phone... "YAAAYYY... and there was much rejoicing".... we'll see if it holds
It's a google problem, nothing to do with the phone or the rom

HTC's download link

I updated via the RUU PG posted earlier, so I am running .52 In my experience, I am still getting the notification that my software is up to date. If anyone can point to the .567 RUU or has other means of getting my unrooted/locked/100% stock device updated, it would be much appreciated
(I am hoping that stupid glitch with clicking links is worked out.)

Nice!!! This is why I check this forum close to everyday . It works for me. I have stock software and haven't messed with it.
Can't Get In
I've tried about a dozen times, but I get a "Server Unavailable" error message each time. So, either the official update in not available everywhere yet, or everyone else is hogging the server bandwidth. I started trying about 1 p.m. CDT when I first saw this thread.
I have a stock Vivid.
I'll keep trying.

Yea give it a while.Its not even posted on HTC's site yet.
There's an issue with the update. It was failing halfway through for me, so I called AT&T. Of course, the person I spoke to is a bumbling idiot, so they directed me towards HTC. HTC confirmed the issue to me and said they are working on a fix as well as there being no timetable for the fix. Is anyone else having an issue updating OTA? Mine is downloading fine and my phone turns of and goes to a screen with progress bar. About a quarter of a way through the progress, I get an error icon.

Thanks for the update. Maybe it's just as well I couldn't get in. I think I'll wait until I see more positive news here.
Update went smoothly and its now running on my phone. The best part is how much faster the interface is.

This doesn't seem to be working for me. When I click on check for update, it just say mines is up to date, but i'm on 2.3.4
I unlocked my bootloader, and rooted device, but I relocked my bootloader so I could do OTA. I'm still on the stock software, no ROMS or anything yet.

My update went off without a hitch. I am experiencing one side affect though... Seems that the phone no longer sees the AT&T Microcell.
I did noticed the under Base Band the radio did change, so I wonder if this is the root cause.
Is anyone else that has the MicroCell having this issue?

I suspect it was failing halfway through for you because you either froze or deleted some of the bloatware that came with the phone. The installer checks for those, and if it doesn't find them, the update will abort.
My phone was completely stock and unrooted and the update was installed and running in less than 10 minutes.
I don't think there is anything wrong with the update, though, as long as you haven't monkeyed around with your phone.
Not the greatest screen shots... will try to upload better shots if anyone is intrested.

Could you please tell us if its having this issue with the browser?
When you click on a bookmark after waking up the phone or randomly does it load the last page you were on instead of the bookmark you click?
Wondering because im using PG's RUU and it has this issue with the browser.
One of the users hopefully before doing the update will copy the ota off device to computer and upload somewhere for the cooks to start with higher build 3.26.502.56710RD

That's been my experience, but I stopped using the HTC browser. Download Chrome Beta, then go into app associations in the setting menu and make it the default app for URLs/links.
The issue doesn't happen with Chrome...and Chrome is a much better browser anyway IMO.

That's everyone's answer but there should be a fix for the default browser for people that like to use the HTC bookmark widget.
Tonight i will be looking into the issue and will post a fix here for the stock browser if i find one!
Several months ago I installed CM10 on my Nook HD+ and for the most part everything runs perfectly.
However in mid March I installed a Cyanogen update and very soon after I noticed many of my apps (all downloaded from Amazons app of the day) would not run, giving me the following error:
Internal Service Error: An internal error occurred. This can be caused by a lack of network connectivity, please make sure you have a good network connection.
At the time, I Googled and tried the suggestions I found (although the suggestions were all for other devices such as Kindle Fire). I checked the time and date were correct, deregistered and reregistered my device and tried rebooting.
And that seemed to fix the issue, although I concede I havent been using the Nook much lately.
Tonight I went to use my Nook to play a few games and the problem is back and its even worse now. I now cannot play any of my games, even ones I have played numerous times before without any wifi turned on. We dont have wifi at home, I tether my phone when I want to use the internet on my Nook. I do know there are some games that require internet access, however the vast majority of mine dont, which I know for a fact as I've played them so often with no internet.
So, why all of a sudden, does everything need wifi? How can I fix this? Is it just coincidence the problem occurred immediately after a system update, and if it could be the update that caused it, how can I find out which update it was and can it be uninstalled?
The instances of this I found mentioned online mainly referred to it happening to just one app, and some people found uninstalling and reinstalling the app fixed the issue. But I have close to 200 apps all doing this.
Since I mainly use the Nook for playing these games, its useless to me as it is now and if I cant fix this issue I wont have any choice but to remove the Mod and return it to stock software, which I really dont want to have to do.
Please can someone help me with this, in basic, non-technical language please?
Thank you.
Hello?
Please, does anyone have any input on this problem? Have I asked in the wrong forum?
I asked about this in another forum and it was suggested that maybe the update made my Nook appear like a new device to Amazon and that the error message is the games wanting to confirm with Amazon that the license to run the game was correct (or something along those lines).
I have just tried uninstalling and reinstalling a couple of games and now they work so it would appear that suggestion is exactly what has happened. So I guess I now have to uninstall and redownload all those 200+ apps and games, which is going to be a nightmare with no internet at home.
And if updates cause the device to appear different, then how do I know this wont keep happening with future updates? I am not going to keep reinstalling every thing, so do I just turn updates off instead? That doesnt seem like a very wise idea.
I would really appreciate some help with this please, or even just to be pointed in the right direction if I should be asking elsewhere.
Thank you.
Well I guess no one has any advise or help of any kind to offer. I will post this update in case anyone else has the same issue.
I ended up having to uninstall and redownload every one of my apps, and now they all work fine again, so I can only assume the suggestion I received on a different forum that the update made my device appear as a new device, meaning the internet was needed for the apps to check licenses with Amazon was correct.
With this in mind, I would now never recommend the Cyanogen mod to any one else. Whats the point if updates are going to screw everything like this? I have now turned off the updates, which I would normally never do. When my Nook gets to the stage of having to have updates I will uninstall Cyanogen and just go back to using a stock Nook.
Its a shame as I have been very happy with it up until all this happened but since there is no back up or support from anyone when things go wrong, its simply not worth the hassle.
