Alright. Let me lead off by saying I searched google and this forum and I couldn't find the answer to my problem. I have found the "answer" to my problem that has worked for other people but not for me. So let me explain my problem and the solutions I tried. Any help would be appreciated.
I bought Beautiful Widgets from the market place. When i go to download it, it says "download unsuccessful". Let me make clear that i'm not rooted (or ever want to be) and I'm running 2.1-update1.
Solutions that I've tried..
1. settings > apps > manage apps > I cleared data in the "Download Manager" and cleared cache in the "Market" section.
Basically i took this advice, http://androidforums.com/samsung-moment/38687-problem-beautiful-widgets.html, it worked for that dude, Didn't work for me.
2. I've restarted the phone a few times and that didn't work.
3. I refunded my money, and bought the app again, didn't work that time either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Edit: I gave this a new title because paid apps do download, just not beautiful widgets.
Can you install any app at all or does this affect all apps?

thanks for the reply
this only happens to paid apps. After all of this happened, I successfully downloaded beautiful silent widgets (or w/e) in the market and it was free.

Are you using wifi or 3g?

I tried both.. also i set up a google voice account (like that one post suggested) .. i signed in and out of it and back in.. and still that app didn't download.
extremely frusterating
update: ok i bought doodle jump lol.. and that worked.. so i guess it must be something wrong with beautiful widgets?

Sounds like it. Probably try it another day and it'll work.

Do they take apps down when they update them? Just curious, after you answer that i'll give an update after I find out what the problem is.
A dude on #android on Efnet IRC has the same problem.
He tried to buy it, said it went successful, then it was authorizing purchase for a long time.
Then got stuck, then Google issued him a refund because of some server error.
Now, when he goes to his downloads, it says Beautiful Widgets still says "purchased".
The BW author is on twitter all the time. I talk to him time to time. I think it was yesterday he mentioned that there are problems with his server and discussing with the powers that be to get a new one. If you have a twitter account, you may try him there if you havent sent him an email already.
hum - having exactly the same problem.. says purchased, click install, says download unsuccessful.. Followed the cache clear and made no difference..

bumping this:
I have emailed dev - but no reply..
Anyone have any thoughts?
Sorry I don't have an answer for you, but Beautiful Widgets caused problems for me anyway. Constant freezes and crashes. Overall slowdown of everything. I'm back to normal after uninstalling.

Hi there,
I was just wondering if it was possible to change when the lockscreen password screen comes up? I want the password protection to show ONLY when my phone turns on, and not when i'm simply awakening my phone. I find it quite annoying.
Anybody know if this is possible through a hack or something? I'm using an unlocked Hero running VillainROM 10.
Thanks in advance,
Alex
there are half a doxen apps that do this, search the market.

Search the market for what exactly? :S I've searched a bit... found loads of alternate lockscreens. But I haven't found an app that will disable the native lockscreen password, but keep it for when the phone boots up.
there is one, sorry i cant rememeber the name, that puts it on a timer. Just search lock and go through them...
try g lock?

okay my bad I was wrong, it isnt working. what settings did you use? Mine was working, but it also stopped the password protection at the startup of the phone too - which isnt good !
i cant remember, i stopped using it now, because i dont use a password at all, just threaten people who pick up my phone.
I don't suppose anyone else has looked into this? I'm also in the same boat, I really just want something to protect startup.
hi guy's long time lurker first time poster...
i'm having a problem with all sms sending 'failing' when ever i've got packet data turned on. its not something i've ever come across on any of my previous devices... any nudge in the right direction will be very welcomed.
p.s i'm on t-mobile uk if that make any difference.
Thanks in advance
john
check your APN settings and MMS settings.
They are sharing the same apn, but i've been playing with the setting (all know variations) but still every time i use packet data it will always fail to send any sms's.
It's becoming very annoying to have to manually connect every time i want to use some data.

Hey!
Just ask from you mobile provider, what must be your APN settings. In 2.3.4 you must ALWAYS put the APN settings manually. If you added them, save and pick it. ALL DONE!
CHEERS!
thanks i'll give it ago, was just using the setting they sent me over the air and already in sim card, will input manually when i get home, and let you know.
Thanks again for the help.
Edit: no this didn't work either, now im really peeved(lol). can't for the life of me think what else it could be. would flashing the wrong modem file cause this? as its all i can think that is left to try....

Hey!
Try to flash stock ROM. We will see what happens then, dose the settings working in 2.2.1. For me was the stock ROM XXKC1. Let it try.
CHEERS!
I flashed 2.3.3 this morning.... will try 2.2.1 tonight, hopefully this will solve it,
Thanks

Hey!
THX man, but you not need to thank always(thx anyway ). If you dont get you problem fixed, you can try others STOCK firmwares. Sometimes it takes a lot of flashing, but it can help sometimes too.
CHEERS!
yeah flashing to 2.2.1 fixed it but i want to use FirstUA-ROM-v1.2 do you think theres a way round it?
p.s i always thank those that try to help me.
Same issue
I have the same problem, bud.
Updated my Ace to Gingerbread and found I couldn't send SMS with Packet Data turned on. Turn it off and SMS sends OK. I'm with Virgin (UK) which I believe is the same network as T-Mobile.
Re-flashed Froyo and all works as it used to. After that, I fired up Kies as I hoped to get an official version that way and sure enough it said there was a firmware update available so I installed that. Turned out to be the official Samsung Gingerbread and yet again i broke SMS when Packet Data was turned on.
I'm back to Froyo once more and have emailed Virgin to ask if they can offer any advice. I notice another report of this issue on another forum where the guy called Virgin and was apparently told the fault seemed to be with VM.
Sorry this doesn't provide an answer but thought it worth corroborating your symptoms.
Cheers!
Use fla.sh rom instead. Its very stable and fast . Multi csc too.

Big thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one with the problem(thought i was loosing my mind,lol)
actually the phone was a virgin locked phone but was unlock to all networks by them for me... maybe something i can look into.
p.s flashing fla.sh didn't fix it either..
I am having this same issue using stock 2.3.3.
I bought my ace factory unlocked using it on orange. Sometimes sms will send, but majority of time it will fail until I disable packet data.
I tend to email or use gtalk/kik for messages but the odd time I want sms this gets annoying.
Oddly I never had this problem on the 2.3.4 I tried from samsfirmware.
Got the same problem. Using 3, and they just gave me a new SIM-card. Gotta finde some clever way of disabling data every time I open Messaging
yeah im looking for a way of re enabling the option in the extended power menu but with out much luck, all the modded ones seem to leave it out.

Okay, gonna try to explain it.
1. Go to /system/app and rename Mms.apk to Mms.apk.bak
2. Install the attached Mms.apk (It's from CM6)
3. Download AutomateIt from the Android Market (Just the free one)
4. Open it and add a rule. Trigger should be "Application Status Trigger" and the app is Messaging. Make sure "Application Adtivated" is marked. And the action should be "Set Mobile Data" and "Mobile Data Enabled" should not be marked.
5. Save it and add a new rule. Trigger should be "Application Status Trigger" and the app is Messaging. Make sure "Application Adtivated" is NOT marked. And the action should be "Set Mobile Data" and "Mobile Data Enabled" should BE marked. Save this one, and you are done!
This will disable Mobile Data every time you open your Texts, and enable it then you exit your texts. The reason you need the CM6 Messaging-app, is that this tricks doesn't work with the original Samsung-app

Found a problem though. MMS doesn't seem to work. Downloading the message fails..
Hello people, how are you doing all? I am a new member and this is my first post. To be honest, I was searching on the web for a solution for my problem but really I haven't found any. My problem with my ((HTC Sensation XL)) device is that when I started using wireless internet connection and downloaded some books applications my device started to get slow :crying: and when I log in to any application on it it opens normally but when I press the back arrow it takes time to display the home screen and a small box appears with a circle in it and "loading" sentence. Another problem I have is that in the notification bar a statement of "importing books, please wait for a moment..." as if an application is downloading books without my permission, I tried so much to remove it but when I tap on it, it doesn't want to open!
Please friends, if anyone can help me to solve this disaster I will be thankful really cuz if it continued with me any longer I will be like :silly: :cyclops:
Thank you in advance.

Well, I would delete the apps you installed right before the problems began and see if that helps out. For your second problem try going into settings-apps-all and find download manager and delete it's data to see if that stops the unknown download notification.

I'm using the Android 12 Beta 2 on a T-Mobile Samsung 21 Ultra and I keep getting the Carrier Device Manager requests are processing message constantly. In addition, I tried to use the eSIM feature and lost signal 2 mins after setting up. Had to go get a physical SIM to get service. I have reset the phone to factory settings and the error is still there. suggestions?
Same here.
It is already reported on the Samsung Members Android 12 beta forum. Apparently this is something T-Mobile needs to fix.
Ok, I have a theory, but I'd need someone on Android 10 or beta 1 to verify for me. If you're not on beta 2, could you check if Carrier Hub notifications are off by default? I think they accidentally just left it default on in this build.

If you have the members app and were officially signed up for the beta, you will see the posts under questions.
I looked.. I couldn't find it.
I have the same issue with carrier hub on TMobile. I .also getting lots of apps that being reported as failing or something that Samsung asks if they can freeze them.. the samsung watch plugin is the one most often being reported but others are doing the same.
