Please help. I'm running the stock rom, and the android market apps keep failing to install. No matter what I do, even if I factory reset, it works for a little while then stops. Is there any way to fix this? It is really annoying and I don't know what to do. I've tried searching the forums, but all the suggestions don't work. Please Help!
Stock ROM, meaning JF6?
Yeah, sorry, thats what I meant.
Im having the exact problem on my captivate...no fix yet, except it works on the i9000 froyo firmware for some reason.

Is it force closing once it starts to install? If so, I ran into the same problem and going in Manage Applications and clearing the Market's cache and uninstalling updates helped me.

Yeah, I tried that. Still didn't help. Then I ran across a post suggesting going to Manage Applications, make sure to filter all, and go to Download Manager, and clearing the Cache and Clear Data, and that worked for me.

2 days ago, my SGS suddenly cannot install app from market.
After download has reach 100%. App just won't install.
Tried downloading a few other apps to test, same result.
I've restart the phone for a few time.
Take out sim card, battery and memory card.
Off 3g and use Wifi.
Clear market cache.
My problem still exist after doing all the above.
Can anyone kindly assist? What is wrong with it.
Thank you.
log onto Talk and see if that helps, other wise clear the market cache
And you can't update apps either?
and recalling your last succesfully and first unsuccesfull installed app?
last time i had this problem, i had to go into the 3 button Recovery Mode and then hit Wipe Cache
I had this problem too. Make sure to clear all Google product caches, not just the market. The worked perfect for me.

Sadly, it doesn't work for me.
thats really ODD, Wish I could help you. Only other advice is do factory reset. I had the problem but It was due to me not flashing a CSC file when I updated my rom.
Hi,
I'm having trouble with Google market. Whenever I try to enter the My Apps tab, I'm getting a forced close. I already tried clearing market cache, which didn't work out. What can I do?

Try to go to the applications settings, select Market and clear data. If it doesn't help, do that once more and restart the phone. Helped me once...
You installed a darkys rom ?? if so check his pages for fix .

Thanks for your help. I'm on DOCs latest ROM. The error occured suddenly this morning. Before everything was working fine.
I didn't find a fix, so I reflashed eventually. Now everything is fine again.
Hi guys,
I have recently downloading the new Cyanogenmod for the Milestone, and although its a pretty good mod, I haven't been able to download things from google market. I have installed GAPPS when it was required, and I can navigate the market fine, it even picks up my bought purchases. However, when I click on download,it says that it is downloading but the bar doesn't move. I;ve reflashed and rebooted numerous times but that doesnt seem to have fixed the problem. I was wondering if any of you had experienced the same thing and if so, how could I fix it?
I have plenty of space on my phone and my SD card too so I can't see where the problem lies.
update, I have looked around a little, and it may be a problem that I cannot connect to googletalk server. Anyone know how to resolve this?
Also, switching from wireless to 3g to 2g doesn't seem to help either.
Having the same problem with my X10! Will show updates for my existing apps but when I click on them to update it just states that they are downloading and they never update! I have power cycles the phone, stopped the update, installed the Google market updates and tried again, still the same result!
I have a rooted X 10 with 2.1.
Anybody else having the same problem?
totally weird, but everything seems to be in working order now. I didn't do anything at all either.
I had to connect to flashtool and reload the os to get it working again!
Tried finding just the market .she file but wasn't sure which one was the one that was messed up! Didn't want to make it worse so just flashed the whole OS

i faced the same problem too, i've been coping with this for about 2 months on CM6 and now it's kinda getting in my nerves. I can't download from the Market and it's annoying when i want to download some apps in a big hurry. I see that i'm not the only one facing this problem, but may i ask for help here? what can i do to fix this problem? you have my thanks
Did you try flashing the OS again or reloading the CM6 ROM? Mine has been working fine since I flashed my OS again.

Wipe data, then flash the ROM. Google Apps you need to wipe both cache partition and dalvik cache AFTER flashing the ROM.

Having the same problem here, with froyomod.
With cm7 i didn't have any problem at all. Maybe because i flashed 2 weeks ago..
Having the same problem from many days and also cm7 is laggy although I still use it. Somebody recommend something please.

I used to have this problem after extendend periods without a wifi connection... it seemed like my purchases would only download on wifi, whereas free apps would d/l on cellular networks
I do have Market problems from time to time, being unable to download. I've try pretty much everything but nothing helped, except: waiting! If apps fail to download constantly, they'll do just fine the next day ...
It seems that the Market has internal problems that cause this. Also I have this behaviour once in a while: viewing "my apps" in the Market will sometimes (!) only show me the Google Apps (Maps, YouTube, etc.) and all the ones that I purchased but *no* free apps at all.
Same again: waiting some time will restore the original (and correct) list.

I think that might just be the limitations of the Gapps we flash. I get those same issues, but a simple reboot fixes everything, nothing to worry about!

I am on continuum v6 rc1 now but this problem has been persistent on serendipity and apex 7.1. I am on wifi and whenever I download an app from the market, it stays on the downloading bar and never downloads. I know that the connection is not the issue as I have been using it for other internet related things on the phone. I have flashed back to stock jf6 and master cleared before applying the latest continuum and the problem remains. I have also tried removing the market update, clearing cache, and rebooting. Nothing has fixed the issue, and upon rebooting, the apps that are attempting to download still appear in the notification tray without any success.
Please help...
Will they download on jf6?
did you g to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear data?
also sometimes the market is just stubborn try one at a time and when it stalls like that click on it and select to download again. sometimes takes 3 or 4 tries before it acually downloads
I was able to download apps from the market on stock jf6. But now I am on cyanogenmod7 nightly 40 and I am still unable to download apps. This is very frustrating because I do not want to stay on jf6 just so I can use the market. What else should I try?

Sorry I forgot to tell you I already tried that.
Does anyone else have any suggestions. I feel like I've tried everything and still no luck.
This happened to me, sorry to tell you but.. you have to do a factory reset. Get titanium backup and backup everything important to you.
If you find sgs tools its an app trying putting this app on your phone by downloading it on a computer as an apk and put it on your sd card and install it then there is a spot that says run script find the market this will unistall market and reinstall it this could work

I tried both of your suggestion and neither worked. For a factory reset, I retrurned to stock and master cleared. While on atock the market was working. But now that I have flashed a gingerbread rom it does not work. I tried going into settings and doing a factory reset from the privacy screen. This simply earased the data on my sd leavng the apps on my phone. And the issue remains. I also tried using sgs tools to uninstall and reinstall the market and again no luck.
Have this problem for 3 days already. Tried to flash to another ROM and it doesn't help. Googled this problem, looks like is a ton of complaints from people experiencing this problem but I can't find any actual solution. Can you help please? I'm tired of this already. Did a factory reset too and it didn't help.
Help please.
Yeah, had this issue some times with the new market.
Yesterday, when it happened again, I just cleared market app data and re-tried.
It worked.
Don't know if it'll last though..
Yeah mate, looks like it helps in some cases. But i tried it many times and it didn't help. I found a solution that deals something with "gmail" and "GoogleMail", but i don't know how to make a @googlemail e-mail.

So you've also tried deleting "Download manager" app data and "Google Services Framework" app data?
Are you using the new market too?
Hmm, [email protected] bugs

Maybe you should try this one too!

I have tried old and new markets, including latest 3.1.5. It doesn't help. Also i tried to clear Download manager app data. But I haven't tried deleting google services framework app data. I can't try it now because i don't have access to the wi-fi.
I think if your advice will not help i'll flash stock GB ROM.

Try wipe cache and fix permissions using CWM
SoulTrain, do you mean "wipe cache partition" or "wipe Dalvik cache"?

I'm also having the same problem, I been searching forums for two days trying to sort this but to no avail. I've cleared caches, installed updates, used a diff version of market app but my apps still are stuck on the "starting download..." screen..
I'm on stock Rom on sgs2, Tesco mobile UK.
any help would be appreciated, thanks
Android Market needs the Google Talk service to download and update applications. Without Google Talk, more downloads from the market ... I think
try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773272
do you use droidwall or something?
@ batahulu, don't think that's my problem, I don't think I've deleted any files by mistake and my Google talk workable fine. thanks tho.
@Dr.wtf., no not using it. I am using lookout and avg but I turned these off and tried too thinking it might be some firewall or sumat but still nothing... I don't know what more to try as I've done nearly everything I can find short of a factory reset. thanks mate
i had this problem long ago whaen i was in amertis ROM....... i tried many things like clearing cache, reinstalling the rom, clear data, even changing google account......but unfortunately it didnt helped..... then googled it and found that its a "CUSTOM ROM" problem.....
then after changing the rom it was fixed......
so my suggestion is that keep trying different ROM....
Goodluck
I've the market stuck on starting download only when I buy a paid app. Strange the free ones download just fine.
Samsung Galaxy s2 android 2.3.6
Yeah exactly the same here, two paid apps are stuck while at the same time I can download free ones.... I tried to download on pc but still not working
Taz..
I had the same problem,...
another rom was my only way to get it working...
I signed into Google wallet on the pc and put in my credit card details again, Google then sent me email asking me to confirm my date of birth and would you believe about 2 hrs later my market started working. Before this I only put my details in from my phone and think that may have been the problem, I think it may be worth a try...
Taz..
Push from Google Play
I've got a Motorola XT720 experiencing this problem as well, and I've tried all the wiping-related methods to no avail. However, I found another workaround that doesn't seem to have been discussed so far.
If I go to the Google Play Accounts web page (sorry, no link - new user), I can use the "Install" button to remotely command my phone to download the app.
It works for a couple tries, then I have to reboot, but at least it gets me somewhere. Hopefully this method can help others too.
