So I installed the CyanogenMod-6 on my G1, and when I start the phone, it doesnt give me the "first time start-up" walkthrough, nor can i manually add an account in settings. it gives me a weird "add server info" page i've never seen before.
This also happened with Super-E, so I know it's not the ROM. I can't imagine what I could have done to the phone to make it glitch out like this.
It runs, I just cant add an account, or see certain button presses light up.
I searched through the forums but came across nothing. anyone got an idea?
thanks in advance.
I deeply apologize. it's late at night and I had never experienced the add account in the form of the exchange setup method.
I got it all figured out and it is running well. Once again, I apologize. Thread may be deleted.

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

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!

Any Suggestions?

I am not sure how many others out there may have experienced the issues I am about to describe, but it is extremely annoying. So I am asking all devs out there to please hear out this issue. I have searched all over for a solution with no result.
ISSUE:
Every action I perform in the Market takes nearly about 1 minute. So for instance, just opening Market takes about 1 minute to load the default Market home screen. So then I see an app I am curious of and click on it. It then takes another minute before the content about the app is fully displayed. Then lets say I want to install the app and click install. If permissions are required, it then takes another minute before that dialog fully displays with the OK/Cancel buttons. Then when the install completes, I can see in the notification bar that the application installed successfully, but the status of the app in the Market remains in the Installing state until I reboot my phone.
Other issues I have noticed is that going to GAMES --> ALL GAMES or APPS --> ALL APPS, I do not see the top paid apps or top paid games.
I have seen this behavior for all apps purchased and free.
Here are other factors. I have experienced this issue on both stock and custom ROMS. I am a big fan of Cyanogen and have tried the various methods on his wiki with no success. I have experienced this issue on different phones as well (i.e. MyTouch & Nexus One). I called Nexus One support and ran through all of their usual troubleshooting methods with no success. They eventually gave up and told me it was a T-Mobile problem.
Here's the other odd issue is that if I wipe my phone and log in with my wife's account, I don't have this problem. Google suggested I setup a new account, but that is not happening. I have had my gmail account since the beginning of time when they first offered trials for gmail. I also have purchased around 70 apps through the market.
Here is a logcat output I captured while attempting to download an app:

Any help would be greatly appreciated because I am now starting to lose interest in the Market because of this issue.
Thanks!
wrong section. q&a is where you wanna be
I am having the same issues and it sucks... sorry I cant help.. just wanted to let you know your not alone and it should be looked into
I understand where your going with that. I have posted the same in the newbie section with 0 responses. This section is where the magic happens. So I was hoping one of the devs out here might give a helping hand to figure out this issue. I have posted in the Market forums with 0 replys. I have contacted Google support directly with no luck other than directing me to T-Mobile blaming their service as the issue, even though I get the same problem over wireless.

Hey I appreciate the support man and I am glad to know that I am not the only one with this annoying issue. I have been a loyal customer to allot of these great devs out there and have purchased over 70 apps on my phone and then repaid for lots of those on my wifes phone just because I truly believe in supporting great talent. But ever since I have been having this issue (since moving from my G1 to the MyTouch and still with the Nexus), I haven't even had the interest to browse the market for new apps.
I JUST NOW realized there is an HTCSetupWizard.apk and a SetupWizard.apk.
Does anyone know if we need both of these?
I'm gonna try removing one and re-flashing to see what happens
Let us know. I think one is for the initial phone setup. I removed the HTC one and nothing bad happened. Atleast not that I know of.
I can confirm that without either of the setup.apk's a fresh rom flash will loop at the point that a setup program is supposed to run
well, I couldn't get a fresh flash to work with just the SetupWizard.apk (the smaller one). I gave up on it as I was also having trouble with some other stuff I was trying to achieve.
At the suggestion of someone who is much smarter than me I looked in my build.prop and found 3 instances, all toward the bottom, of the following line: ro.setupwizard.mode=
2 of them said =DISABLED and one said =OPTIONAL
Anyone know how to use these lines as they are intended? I did a very small amount of searching, it was late.
I havent tried using just the HTCSetupWizard.apk w/o the SetupWizard.apk so that may work, not sure yet.

My Guess as to why there are two:
1st HTC setupwizard is the initial setup that you see when you boot the phone. The 2nd setup wizzard is the GMail setup that you enter when you setup your gmail account. Then it goes back to the HTC one when setting up Exchange, Fbook, and Twitter...
Just my theory from going through that process oh I don't know 2.5 million times in 7 months.

Can you still report that removing HTCSetupWizard.apk has no effect on the phone?
Can you still go into settings - accounts - and enter facebook, twitter, flicker, and gmail account information.
Has anyone gotten this to work on the NC yet? I'm somehow able to see calendars that people share with me, but I cannot see my own. They are all sharing just fine with my iphone, but they dont show up on my NC. I can see them and check them off, but nothing displays on the default calendar or on calwidget.
Has anyone run into this?
Agreed
Yep... I've got the same issue with mine.
Hmm... that sucks... well, I guess I COULD just create a second google account, set up my calendars there, then share them with my primary account... but that's almost more trouble that it's worth.
SOLVED
OK - researched a little more - check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10122405#post10122405 and look at DocFreed's post - it's so simple and stupid, yet it works
Fantastic! Thank you. I'm currently wifi-less so i'll test that once I get home
Hey folks,
I just flashed over the latest phiremod and I'm having a couple of small issues. 1: Whenever I go into settings > about phone and hit "status," it force closes on me before I can even see any info (like batt. status, level etc). Anyone experience anything similar and if so, found any workaround?
2: I downloaded and installed the newest version of Google Voice from the market but can't set it up. During set up, after I provide the number associated with it the next step attempts to set up voicemail (and obviously can't) so I just press the option to "skip" it, but whenever I do so the set up screen and the buttons go grey and just stay that way. Anyone know of any workarounds?
Thanks for any help!
Hope it's alright to bump this. Again, if anyone has any idea on a fix, I'd really appreciate it. (Of course, if I missed a thread or two about these same issues, feel free to throw in a link.)
Thanks!
