Is anyone else having issues with connecting to the market? - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using Modaco's Froyo ROM. I can't connect at all.

Server error? Had it too. But on 2.1 and it seems to be fixed now.
Maybe Google is adding some stuff like the search suggestions ("did you mean.. [insert word]") which came out/is coming today(?) for FroYos Market

Hmm..It's weird. It keeps saying "server error" like I have no 3G or wifi, which I do.

Tried to restart the phone?

Well I answered it! Haha I might be able to help you out here too.
I recently encountered a problem with Super User not connecting to anything, and what I did was just re-flash the ROM right on top of what was already running. It won't wipe anything, besides a theme, and it also works by re-installing the stock apps. Data is never lost, but sometimes it resolves problems within apps.
What it sounds like is that your IM app isn't connecting to data services. Try all EDGE/3G/WiFi connections. If that's a no go, re-install the app with a re-flash of the ROM. If that STILL doesn't work, wipe and re-flash.
Let me know how that goes :]

Alright, cool. Personally, I would give up on the Stock app and switch to one of the other countless IM apps on the market, because they're constantly updated and quite frequently have more features to offer, but that's just my opinion :].

i like buddymob so far. only really have had it for a few days now since i became more concerned with my default IM app problem. ebuddy looked good but didnt provide a seamless way to use it as a im app that was constantly on and connected via the phone. like no taskbar icon or nothin

You won't be able to get it from the market, but you can unzip any build with it in it and drop the app on your SD card and install with an App manager program.
That's odd, you might want to try re-installing the app then :].

New Bing

Is the new Bing working for anyone. I install it and when it opens its still the old version. I don't know whats going on.

nope, not on the Imagio. There is a thread open in Development & Hacking > Windows Mobile Application and Games.
Seems like its not working for a lot of people yet.
Bing works fine on my Imagio. That said, yesterday Bing had an outage...so you may have experienced that.
There is a known issue on the Bing app where it will only pick the first address if your contact has multiple addresses.
Hope this helps,
CB
So you have the new Bing with the picture background working?

which one did you download, didnt work for me.
the new bing sucks.
No...didn't realize they actually released a new update. And the new update states that "you're phone is not currently supported." Personally, as one of the few new WM6.5 phones, I am stunned that it isn't supported.

Install it to see what it looks like then uninstall it and reinstall the old version. The new version is horrible and looks like a Beta 1 version of the last version. It's so unusable that it's not worth installing.
not installing
I tried to do the udpate and Bing says cannot recognize the phone (or some similiar message) and then launches the browser and lets me download bing.cab. i tried to run bing.cab and it says cannot install in this phone.
Are you on Verizon? Search a bit, it is well known that Verizon's phones are not letting the new Bing install. Not just the Imagio, but ALL Verizon phones.
Verizon and Bing issues
Hey bud, you're right. It appears that others on the Verizon network are having issues with the new Bing upload. That said, it appears that the updates to Bing aren't being regarded very highly. So maybe it's for the best at the moment.

Can't download from Market - stuck on "starting to download"

This has been going on for 3 days now, and I haven't been able to find any topic on this so far.
For the last 3 days, I cant' get any market updates, or new market apps. It just says "starting download", but won't actually download. I have uninstalled/reinstalled Market App (Vending), did a wipe, nothing seems to fix this issue. I even installed a new ROM fresh.
Has anyone come across this issue? Solutions? Am I the only one?
Using Cyanmod - 4.2.12.2
Haykuro DangerSPL (Rogers)
One more Note - Noticed a comment here in the Q&A about Metamorph causing "market issues", but they don't actually describe what the issue is. I did recently install it, changed my power control widget, that was it.
Thanks for your help!
Try this;
Connect to wifi,
Cancel all downloads,
Restart all downloads over wifi.

Thanks lbcoder, had a feeling it would be you replying to my inquiry. Anyways, I had also tried that method, still nothing. Actually found the link below, people having this issue. To add to your steps they suggest to login to Google Talk. Well, that seems to be an issue as well, i can't login.

The only unusual thing in my logcat seems to be calling for low memory: No more background processes. This is a little odd, never had mem. issue's before, looking at my phone's memory usage in terminal, should be ok.
I had this issue due to my wireless router. Disconnected from the wifi and it all started working. The strange thing was browsing was working and google talk but it just would not download from the market.
Issue Update - in case others are having this issue - Back in Business
Well, I figured I ran out of options, that is options that didn't require a complete format and wipe of the phone.
I had to follow all the original steps, for installing the newest cyanogen ROM, using the HTC Dev Phone. So, after installing the HTC_DevPhonezip file from their website, applied it, applied Cyan's latest ROM, reboot...Bammm, the market is back, and downloading. Actually it ended up installing all my updates automatically. Guess it was registered through my google account, because I hadn't even installed the apps back to my ext partition yet, after installing new ROMs

Wanted to say thanks for the pointer to starting Google Talk to get my market downloads to work...as soon as I logged into Talk, my downloads started. I had re-flashed, re-formatted and basically tried everything until this simple suggestion fixed the problem. Kind of strange...but thank you!

Wow! Thanks for posting this, man. I was racking my brain... as this was the 2nd time I ran into this issue on my phone! Didn't want to wipe/reload once again.
Anyhow, I was using 'Autostarts' to pare down some of the crap that auto-starts with a standard Android build. Since I don't use GoogleTalk, I naturally killed that sucker. I guess I should've thought that it'd be tied to the Marketplace, right? Google Talk + Marketplace = logical That said, re-enabling Google Talk and restarting resolved my issue.
Thanks again!

[Q] Pocket Legends Download Issues

I seem to be having some problems downloading Pocket Legends from the Market. I was able to download it shortly after its release while I was using Cog 2.3b3. However, since updating to Cog 2.3b6 and now Perception Build 1, I can't get the download to start. After selecting to download, a notification pops up, but disappears before the progress reaches 1%.
Has anyone experienced something like this and come across a fix?
Just download the apk from here:
http://www.spacetimestudios.com/sho...now-available-for-those-without-market-access
Thanks for the link. Downloading it right now.
Does anyone know why I had that problem though? Don't wanna have to go apk hunting every time I can't download something from the market.

I have the exact same issue on cog 2.3b6. It just pops up and disappears. Hopefully we don't see it with any other apps. Does cog remove at&t's market limitations?

agreed, it's definitely not the roms that are doing this. It's something with that one game. I have not had any problems with any other applications

My theory is actually has to do with the ROM. I am thinking that it has to do with the android id. Since the game seems to picking up popularity, I bet multiple people are trying to download it at once with the same id on their phone. Could try changing the id and downloading again.

When I first had this problem I was researching the interwebs and it's not only the Captivate having this problem when trying to download pocket legends. People with different phones where also not having any trouble downloading any other applications, just pocket legends.
Definitely not the rom or even the phone... I've got the same problem on an evo.
Have the same issue here.. Cog 2.3.6. I tried both with 3g/wireless - and nadda.
Chiming in to say I'm having the same problem. Icon shows for a second then disappears. Captivate running cognition 2.36b
I'm in the same boat. It just refuses to download to my Cappy from the Market. Tried over 3G and WiFi and didn't make a difference. Tried the option within the game to download the latest version of the game from pocketlegends.com website and that worked fine, so it's something about trying to get it from the Market that seems messed up.
Pocket Legends' APK is now larger than can fit in /cache. (28.4 vs ~26.7)
This isn't going to change unless STS figures out either how to shrink their files or deliver the majority of them post-install.
Had this problem also
It has to do with the android i.d. number, if you downloaded it from the market on a different i.d. then your going to have the problem with it in the market. The first time I dl pocket legends I had a generic i.d., and then I changed it back to the original and had problems dl pocket legends from the market again. I don't know if this effects updates, but just in case, I have both android i.d's written down in a safe place. Flash back to stock to get the original i.d. if you don't have it, using android i.d. or some app that does the same, and save and write down your android i.d.. Don't forget to find and write down your current i.d., so that if need be you can switch between the two when necessary.
I've changed my Android ID from a randomly generated one, to my correct one...and still haven't had luck getting the download to initiate.
Sorry

Check and make sure you have the correct Product Code for our phones, I believe there is a thread about it in development. That may help.

full market?

I'm running the latest Vegan rom and have done the market fix, but it doesn't seem like I have the full market. I notice lots of games and apps missing. I did the fix by stopping the framework service and market, opened titanium backup, wiped framework data. Went to market, got the error and rebooted. I noticed the market was much better, but still missing a lot. What did I miss?
Sent from G Tablet featuring bleeding edge VEGAn 5.1 from GTabDevs
I had to do the fix couple of times before I could see the entire market. YMMV

Do you also have what I'd call about an 85% market?
Before the fix, I'd say it was about a 60% market.
I'd like the full 100% like other people get

Unfortunately, there are some apps and games that are missing even after the market fix. Most are there, but there are the odd ones that don't show. Smart people are working on this I'm sure.
If you have the know how you can try pulling and sideloading them from another Android device. If it's a free app you may find the apk elsewhere. Aside from that, we just need some patience. I'm pretty happy with what I've got so far.
i think there is a problem with market itself right now..ive been seeing problems even on the phones. i changed to vegan and had to sideload most apps for now
I also am missing part of the market.
the funny thing is that some things like Firefox showed up for me in the past but no longer do.
I don't know what I need to do to fix it.
Not sure if this will help you but I followed this video (different tablet) and believe I have all the market now.

About that Server Error message, I've been noticing for the past few days that the error seems to come up for much more often when I am at work than when I am at home. The internet connection at work is thru a shared Verizon Wireless connection.
At home I was able to go into the market and browse extensively without getting any error. At work I get the error almost as soon as I go into the market and just keeps coming up every few seconds.

Video worked for me thanks
I thought that I have full market working but just discovered
that Zeam launcher is not there If I use AppBrain market it's there but cant download anyway. On my rooted Nook Color it works fine.
Can anyone confirm please ?
Thanks
it is very strange. Shouldnt we have full access to the market? What if we make a build.prop file that has it recognize the tablet as a DROID phone? Would that work?
