market problems

I need a little help.
Recently I've been switching roms back and forth between cm6 and aosp 2.1.
My problem is that on csrom 2.1.5 and damaged 2.09 and even the .5 ruu, I can't download apps from the market.
They all get stuck at "starting download" and nothing changes. I've tried stopping and starting the download with no solution.
The only rom in which market works is in cm6.
Can anyone offer insight?

with today's date...google claims it's fixed..it isn't
maybe it's not a problem on my end...

Could possibly be a problem with the market and/or network, but I just downloaded 4 or 5 new apps from the market earlier today with no hitches or problems at all.
Try updating your profile on a Sense-based ROM, maybe just nfinitefx45's stock. Could be that the market no longer recognizes your data profile associated with your account because of so many recent changes. Settings->About phone->System updates->Update profile
Not saying this will definitely fix your issue but it is a good thing to try. If it works, you could probably re-flash the ROM of your choice after you do this and still be fine.

Hey I did try that earlier today because from past experience flashing a sense rom fixed some issues.
I updated the prl today to ..669 and did all the updates possible on the about menu. Nothing worked.
Thank you for the suggestion though.
I never thought i'd miss the market so much haha
What I don't understand is why it works fine in cm6 and not in darch or stock....
by the looks of it though, http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/label?lid=7dc8a5c590cd22ee&hl=en
it's not just me..
my market was working earlier in the morning, don't know what could've changed..

I had this issue too just now, I had to change to wifi to get downloads going. I don't know why; I hope it's temporary

I ended up going with cm6
figured I might as well

[Q] HTC Hero Sending, not Receiving Texts

I have not received a text for about 3 days. It started when my sister asked why I hadn't responded to hers. I figured it was just a hiccup on the network. I was able to send her a text fine and make and receive calls fine, but no texts come in. I'm running on CM6.1 and hadn't had any problems with it. I tried uninstalling recent applications, and I even did a factory wipe and re-install of my ROM and mods, as well as all of my apps and I'm still not having any luck. I haven't yet called Sprint, as I'm afraid that they won't know anything or will give me grief for using a non-stock software (perhaps they won't even know); or maybe I'll just stop into the store sometime soon.
Anyway, I've read a few things about this, such as people removing apps and it alleviating the problem. I figured it was just a space issue, like once the phone dips under a certain amount of on-board storage it doesn't download them. I had a similar problem where it wouldn't sync e-mails until I got 2.2 firmware and did App2SD. But my storage isn't really low enough for that to make sense. I tried re-installing the radio that I use to no avail... I just really can't figure this out.
If anyone could give me a leg up on this problem, I'd be really grateful.
Thanks,
Mike

What rom are you running? Is your prl up to date? Current is 60674. Nand, flash a Sense rom, send and receive a few texts, update your profile and prl, then nand restore back to your rom. People have had success with that.

I'm running the latest Cyanogenmod that is listed for my phone, which is 6.1.0, released about 2 weeks before I started experiencing the problem. I have the PRL file and have it on my SD card. Is there any way to do this without flashing to a different ROM?

I had the same problem. Downloaded Fresh ROM. Did a nandroid, flashed Fresh, updated prl, opened maps for a good GPS lock for safe measure, then just restored my nandroid of Cyanogen. Worked flawlessly, and took 20 minutes. Definately the best fix, and the nandroid restores everything to to the way it was, so it's no headache at all.

I'm downloading the stock RUU and I have Fresh downloaded. Nandroid keeps getting stuck on data... about to just go for it.

Don't flash the stock RUU or you'll have to re root.

Well that's not too hard. But what sucks is when Fresh Sense keeps crashing... then when you go to restore, you get an MD5 mismatch... Yeah, it won't restore my backup because it didn't complete and got stuck. Looks like I'm wiping and re-flashing CM6.... again.

Well, somehow I had a working backup from yesterday, the 24th, at some point. It won't be exactly where I left it... but it'll be close. Hopefully I got all the updates I needed via Fresh. Fingers crossed.

The way I got it to work was to flash a Sense ROM. As soon as the ROM loaded, all the texts came in. Also while on Sense, update your PRL.

[Q] PRI help

So I've searched around and haven't seen any clear information on this, so please forgive me if I missed the info in my search.
I've been having a lot of data connection issues with my Hero lately. I'm seeing my signal at about half of what I'm used to, and about half the time, the moment I go to use my data (check Gmail, launch the browser, launch the market, etc..) the 3G connection drops to x1.
So went around trying to update everything. PRL and profile updated via NFX's ROM, but PRI didn't change. Sitting at 1.70.003. I've seen several threads mentioning PRI's of 2.20 and such, but no info on how to update. I did see one mention that Fresh includes the latest PRI, but I tried that back when the issue first crept up and the PRI stayed the same.
##774# doesn't do anything on any ROM I've tried.
Currently running AOSP's GB ROM (0.1.2), but I've been running the 0.9.9.2 Froyo one recently, as well as the stable 6.1 CM. Have tried NFX and Fresh for updates.
Any one have any information on what I can do?

Not sure about the PRI deal, but have you already flashed the newest radio?

If you want the latest pri, run a stock ruu, .6 or the .7. Then do the ota update and then root the new software version. Apply clockwork via rom manager or some other recovery. After that I flashed a backup of the custom stock .7 that I was using, retaining the latest pri. All the info can be found in the forum.

That's how I did it
Edit: these links aren't working from my phone...when I use my computer, I'll double check

Radio's 2.42.02.10.29, which, unless I missed something, is the latest radio.
The links aren't working.

What I did to fix my PRI was to run the RUU. The ##768# + MSL didn't work for me at all (nothing came up), so I just ran the RUU and everything was normal again.

[Q] android market data problem

ok now i have a htc cdma hero for sprint and recently the market has been giving me problems like it turns off the data connection and i have to keep hitting retry i have tried to find the cause for this and i havent found a clear answer anywhere it is only the market that does this i can go on the internet or use data for anything else and it is fine. also after a while i cant download any apps it says download unsuccessful
rooted using liquidsense 1.1 deodex signed
if anyone knows how to fix this or knows a place that has information on this that would be great

it has something to do with the new market and 2.1 sense roms i always had that issue, but its fine on cyanogen and aosp roms.

Is there a version of the market I could install that works and a way to keep it from updating? I was thinking of trying a new rom but if I don't like any other roms or they don't have the wireless teather I'm going to go back to this rom because I have to have the internet to look for jobs

unfortunately no the market will automatically update itself when u load it.

so there is no way to remove the market updater i see it in the app manager list. or is there a way to fix the problem?

you could try that if its a deodexed rom worst case scenario is the market will fc then u could simply restore the rom

[Q] Updating PRL, Fresh Rom won't install

I'm currently using clockwork mod recovery v2.5.0.7, hero-deck gingerbread rom with firerats. I changed my mtdpartmap to accommodate for the fresh sense rom and tried flashing the rom, but I get an error and the flash is aborted. It says something like symlink busybox... Does anybody have any idea why I would be able to flash the fresh rom? I'd like to do so to update my PRL. Thanks for the help! I was able to flash my backup of the hero-deck rom without any trouble. Do I need to flash a different recovery?

Maybe it's something with that setup, b/c i have the same problem. I'm running deck 1.2.1, CWM2.5.0.7, with firerats as well and I got the same error when trying to flash Fresh last week to update PRL. Something about busybox and Symlink error on line 62.
I haven't tried it yet, b/c my signal is generally pretty good (making the benefit of a PRL update negligible)....but, my next step was gonna be re-flashing a new recovery and trying again. I also tried LiquidSense, but i got stuck at the HTC screen at boot.

Thanks for the insight. Unfortunately, my signal at home is not the greatest. I've been lately trying everything I can do to increase my data speeds and thought it might help to update the prl. Oddly enough though, on my drive to work today with full bars my data speeds were only .3 Mbps. I don't understand that.

Have you tried without using firerat's? I use firerat's on Jaybob's, but never when I update using NFX's Rom. Firerat's rewrites the symlink and could be the issue with anything earlier than 2.2 (froyo) and above.
Flash a new recovery 1st, or download the firerat's removal tool from the firerat's thread. I just flash a new recovery then format everything 3 times in clockwork ( system, boot, data, cache), then flash a sense Rom. No need for any firerat's steps unless you use the removal tool.
You think Meth is bad? Try being a flash whore with a Gingerbread habit and a legacy device! It ain't pretty.

I flashed a new recovery and then installed fresh. It worked well. Unfortunately, my download speeds seem to now be slower. I suppose I'll have mess around with different prls. Thanks foe the help!
