I cant download any apps from the market for whatever reason. Was able to yesterday, and not today. When I click on the app I want to install from the market, I get the download icon appear on the task bar above for a second, then it disappears. The only program I installed today, is "Dynomaster". I tried to remove that app, but still no luck. And yes, I tried to restart the phone. Im running rooted Froyo 2.2. Please help. Thank you!!
UPDATE:
After several tries of opening and trying to update, and closing the market, it came with a license agreement. After agreeing, I'm able to download the apps now.... Still don't know what happened :\
Before we start... yes, I have searched the forums and thats why I've started this thread.
Setup: CWM, VEGAn 5.1, Titanium Backup and Root Explorer
EVERYTHING is working except for this...
I have run the market fix step by step (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845175) and have access to the full market. I can even get all the way to initiating the download of the app. However, when the download starts, it just hangs in 'starting download...' and does nothing. It doesnt download or install, just hangs.
This seems to be a known issue with phones with no answer...

I have run multiple reboots in combination with data/cache wipes using app manager and CWM. I'm sure that I'm missing something but I have no clue what it is. Help is greatly appreciated?

Just had it happen on my phone. I fixed it by going into applications and clearing the data from google services framework. Then reboot...
Mine does this if I try to use it from work. The firewall allows normal web, and transparently proxies FTP so I'd think it would work, but it doesn't.
sign into google talk and all should be well... google's market depends on gtalk service - signing into gtalk should do it for you.

Thanks for the heads up. You are right that it is dependent on GTalk, but I think I've stumbled across the main issue. When I connect to someone's else's wifi (couple of people in my apt complex have left their routers unprotected), I don't have any issues connecting to gtalk or market. So obviously, my gtab is having an issue with the connection through my network/firewall/<insert idea>, I'm assuming.
Are there any known network/firewall issues with connecting to gtalk or the market?
I'm running TnT Lite 3.1 and finally got all the apps to load up on market using the "market fix" that you tried as well, but am stuck on "starting download" as you are. Although it's possible that it has something to do with the router, I turned the firewall on my router completely off and still hangs. I wish we could figure this one out.
Just know you are not alone.

I don't know if this will help but I have seen that a couple times and have found that if I tap on the app that is stuck it will go back to the menu asking if you want to install like you would see when you first tried it. Say ok, it will start to download again. Seems most times it will then download.
I have in the past had apps just stay stuck. Only thing that I could ever do to fix that was to clear the data from the Google services framework, and reboot. Kind of like doing the market fix again.
Try clearing cache for the downloader. It could be there is a bad file "stuck" there that it is trying to resume...
It's even possible that there is a zero byte file there with perms wrong...happened to me once after switching ROMs
How do you sign into gtalk? Is it already installed in TnT by default? I don't see an icon for it.
Are you running a custom rom or stock. Stock has no Google Apps

market, like any other google app (including talk), depends on GoogleServicesFramework

I'm running TnT Lite, version 3.1 I believe.
I can obviously navigate to the main page google.com/talk, but don't see a link there to install for android/gtab. If my market worked I could probably install from there, but that's the whole reason I'm messing around with talk. Still can't get my market to install anything, despite market fix, clear this, clear that, etc.
You can reinstall TnT rom without wiping data/cache. I would wipe cache. The gTalk app (Talk) should have installed with TnT lite. This will reinstall everything in the rom wothout wiping your data. You may still have to wipe data/cache but you can try it in steps

Ok I found talk and cannot login. Says "could not connect to server. Will retry shortly." I confirmed my internet is working as I can connect with the browser. I can also still connect to Market, find apps, but cannot get them to download. I've cleared the data in Google services framework and rebooted several times with no solution. ARGHH!!

Sorry if you have already done this but....I would backup my apps and THEIR data with titanium backup and do a complete reinstall. Wipe data/ factory reset and then install the rom again. Restore your apps and their date with Titanium. Don't restore system data with Titanium.

Ok will try that and get back to you. I don't really have to backup anything, will just do a wipe and reinstall. Thanks for your help.
Well chit. I downloaded the new TnT 4.1 and figured I'd give that a try.
Restarted w/ clockworkmod .08, cleared cache, cleared data, then installed TnT.
After booting back up some of the buttons weren't working, couldn't type in my wireless password, it would keep jumping to the home screen, then I couldn't shut down, power button would not turn the damn thing off.
Copied the TnT 3.1 update.zip back to the sdcard. Went into settings and did a data reset/wipe and finally it shut down.
So I restarted with clockwork mod again and wiped cache and data reset, loaded TnT 3.1 and let it boot up.
Was able to enter wireless password and get that going and confirmed the internet was working. Then went to market and or course it was not working. So did market fix, after installing titanium backup. Had to reboot a few times after force stopping google services and market, and wiping cache/data (from within settings) each time and finally all the apps showed up in market.
However, still unable to get anything to install.
Tried to login to google talk with same result.
I'm now thinking it must be something with my firewall as the first user mentioned. Going to try it on another connection and let you guys know.
I can confirm that it is something to do with my firewall. Finally tried market on another connection and it downloaded right away. Now I have to get verizon to give me a new router. DOH!
EDIT Now I can download from market just fine from my original location. It seems that once I downloaded the first time from a different location, now it is all working.
Anyone have apps that download and not install? I've been having this problem, before my memory even got low for apps so I wiped everything and reinstalled my apps and had less then half a gb of apps.
Things seemed good but today it started happening again, apps will hang in downloading or will download and not install.

You should be able to install the AppBrain Market and from there install any/all of Yahoo's offerings.

Have you tried to delete your current play store app and re-download it through their website?
Also, when asking question like this, it helps to mention what exactly you flashed and the mods you did.
Hello Everyone. I came across these on a different section of XDA, and figured I would repost! Huge thanks to Lukijs for posting these.

These are all from Lollipop. I have them all running on Bad Boyz Rom.
Edit: I thought these were signed because they installed just fine on my device. It would seem I was wrong. You will have to uninstall the original and install this to get it up and running in some cases.
Any way to confirm these are safe? I'm getting an error about "conflicting signature".

As far as I know they were pulled from the Lollipop build, but other than that, no. I have them installed on my device and they are running great. I think they have a conflicting sig to keep unrooted peeps from installing. you will have to uninstall the old app and install this one to get it up and running. I believe you had to do the same w/ the keyboard app too.

I installed keyboard without uninstalling (with some added .lib files). I just want to be sure before I install them.

Makes sense. I can't really tell you much more then that. I edited the original post as to not mislead people.

OK, sorry it took so long to respond. Not sure why it worked for me. I did install the email app as well. What version is your Google Services. I am on 6.1.83. Make sure you install the exchange services too. Since Gmail has exchange support you will need it! Hope that helps!
Edit: I would also mention I am on Bad Boyz ROM
