Apps not Downloading?

A weird new issue started last night. Once you select a app to download its like its stuck in queue. It says starting download forever yet it never downloads. Although I purchased a paid app and it downloaded right away. I tried it on multiple networks, wifi. Multiple restarts. I'm running 5.0G. Anyone else having a similar issue?

I think everyone on the G builds is having the issue. It was ok for me yesterday, but doesn't work today, so it looks like something has changed on the Market that is prevent G builds from downloading (H builds are fine apparently).
Regards,
Dave

Yeah I just figured that out after catching up on the Haykuro thread. I can download purchased apps fine though. Makes no sense to me.

G Build here as well. I can't update dxTop, which is a paid app. Anyone think Google/T-Mo did this intentionally to thwart people running the homebrewed Android?

That dosent make sense to me though as when you just purchase a app it downloads fine. If it is indeed Google then I'll just get H. But I am gonna wait another day before doing that.

oo yea i cant dl apps too, i was thinkin im alone

If you wait long enough(like 10-11 FREAKING HOURS!!!) it'll eventually dl and install. I think they're doing an upgrade to the market to handle cupcake and LucidREM seems to agree with me, so this seems to just be termporary..

Why isn't Chrome to Phone working?

I'm trying to use this feature of Froyo but it just refuses to work. I'm signed in, in both my browser and my phone. I've downloaded the extension in Chrome and the app from http://code.google.com/p/chrometophone/downloads/list (the 3rd link on that page).
The app is installed and I've registered my account on it. I've selected "Automatically Launch Links." I've tried it both on Chrome and Firefox (after getting the add-on) and when I click on the button, both come up with the "Sent to Phone" message.
But my phone receives nothing!

Ok out of some 10 links I sent, about 15 minutes ago, I suddenly got two of them on the phone. That's a massive delay between the time I received "Sent to Phone" on the browser and the time I received it on the phone. Not to mention that's only 2 out of many that I didn't recieve.
But my phone was not lacking any connectivity in the meantime at all, because I was browsing on it in those 15 minutes to confirm that very thing. Oh and it's still not working as it should by the way, I'm still getting nothing when I send something to phone.
What's going on?
More testing: It seems to be working in intervals. Works for a couple of tries and then stops completely. If I change to 2G, it works again but then stops again. Then I change it back to 3G, same thing, works again and stops again.

Happens to me too, but I was just playing around rather than actually needing this feature, so I couldn't be bothered to investigate.

update to the latest extension for chrome ... it seems more reliable

Would that be v1.2 from here: http://code.google.com/p/chrometophone/downloads/list (3rd option)?
Actually I'll try the first option and see how that goes.

Same thing here, N1 stock FRF91, funny cause it worked yesterday when my computer was running Win XP, today its running Win 7 (Hell Yeah). I exported all my saved config in FireFox to this new install, no worky, finally unistalled both off the phone and FireFox then reinstalled back on both, still doesn't work. Oh well not a big deal, just annoying.

Latest apk file works perfectly. It's got a new icon for Chrome to Phone as well...

Ah yes sorry, that's what I meant. I have both 0.5 and v1.2. I got Froyo only yesterday, so those are the only versions I've been playing with.
Oh well, I'll just wait a few months when more phones are on Froyo, we'll have a better idea.

I certainly did. I have it selected to "Automatically launch links."
As I mentioned, it works some of the times, but not every time. And sometimes I get the link I sent upto 15 minutes later.

Verizon NFL app

Has anyone been able to successfully bypass the the verizon firewalls and been able to have the nfl .apk app to work on the captivate or vibrant?

I downloaded it after using market access to emulate verizon. It installed but just hung on the initial load screen when opened up. I really wanted it too!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App

I want this too!!

The guys in the nexus forum have been working on this for a while. He finally thought he had gotten passed it, and posted the apk on a different forum. Someone posted the apk on twitter and verizon caught wind of it and sent him a C&D letter. Plus cracking the apk is one thing, but trying to crack vcast is not going to happen. Looks like we are stuck the the espn apk.

Does anyone have a happy alternative to our dilema, other than ESPN's Score Center? It rocked on the iphone, a little too laggy on android. Maybe a good raido app that streams NFL games? Im in Tennessee, and im trying to get my Chicago Bears games. Please, someone help!

i wouldnt think it would be that hard to say get the apk off of the fascinate and then emulate whatever the communications between the phone and verizons server is.........pretty much spoofing verizons server for the app into thinking that its a verzion branded android device and therefor allowing any phone to access it...... of course if it was that easy it would already be done lol.

Looks like they figured it out over in the evo 4g section!!! Only works on wifi for us currently, make sure to reboot your phone after you install.

I tested it. Cannot get it to work over 3G or Wifi. It just sits there and loads forever.

Try rebooting. On my G1 it works over both, but on my gf's captivate it only works on wifi.

i downloaded it, ran droidexplorer to install it and it works flawlessly over wifi. However 3g does not work.
Reboot your phone if it just loads forever

This is amazing....too bad it doesn't work for me on 3G, would love to watch the noon games while i am tailgating on Sunday...

try this out
Hi I am on att using captivate, I just installed this app today and was only able to connect thru wifi as well. I had to get some stuff done round the house and so I turned off my wifi while the NFL app was still running and to my surprise the app still worked and appears to be using my 3G connection.

Works on 3g for me
Yeah I actually downloaded an unlocked apk file at droidforums.net. It is working great over 3g as well for me as of right now on my Captivate.
I however cannot post the link but I will post the apk file.
Also, I'm not sure if it matters but I did have it running first with my wifi on and then I turned it off to test it on 3g. They also have an unlocker tool on that website but I didn't have to use it. Hope it works for you guys.
EDIT: By the way, when you download this through your phone, use Astro or some other file manager to rename it to an .apk file.

NFL Verizon used to work on wireless now not working
Anybody still using this? Even though the app used to run on wireless (3g used to give me some error) after the season got kicked off for real I got a message that I wasn't a Verizon customer. The live streaming never worked, but the app and some of the videos did. I'm running SRE v1.2.2.a (which I know I have to update) but it did work before....anyone else have any luck?
***I must not have been logged in before because I didn't see the zip file above my post last time I saw it, I'll give that one a go***

Worked for me just fine on wifi last night.

still doesn't work on 3g...but
it worked on wifi and I was streaming the NFL channel. It seemed to keep going after I ditched the wifi and was just on 3g, but it won't fire if I just open it up on 3g....

one interesting thing I noted yesterday is that when I turn Mobile AP on and connect my roommate's Vibrant on T-Mo it worked fine, which tells me the app itself is what blocks it from working over 3G vs something like blacklisting the IP's from AT&T, T-Mo, and Sprint...

yeah I mean the only way I get it to work on 3g is if I start it on wireless and then turn wireless off, so there is a check somewhere. Wonder if the app could be faked into thinking it was on wireless or something like that. Anybody have this working on 3g straight from the get go? I get "cannot connect to NFL Mobile. please establish a connection and try again"

AT&T Update help

Hello. I recently got a Moto X and I've been trying to update it but when I go to settings then update. It says that there's already an updating being downloaded. Problem is, there isn't. I've tried lots of things like, force closing MotorolaOTA, Clearing data and force closing Google services framework. I've factory reset, Cleared Cache Partitions, tried downloading in a different WiFi. But none of those worked.

Here you go.

If it makes you feel any better I'm having the exact same problem. I was coming here to post as a last resort and saw your post. I bought the phone yesterday morning and got it all setup and saw the update so started the update. 24 hours later and it still says an update is in progress. I decided to try to install the Motorola Device Manager on my PC and it says an update is already in progress... even after I force closed Motorola OTA on the device. So frustrating to have all these issues with a new phone I was so excited about buying after coming back to Android after a couple year stint with iPhone 5 and then iPhone 5s.

Does turning on the WiFi help? Maybe its restricted to download in 4g to not eat your data plan up? Or how about doing master reset?
Sent from my XT1060 using xda app-developers app

I was on Wi-Fi for like 24 hours straight and it didn't download. When I leave my house and lose Wi-Fi I get a notification that says " Download will resume in Wi-Fi coverage" and the progress bar shows 0% even after several hours on high speed Wi-Fi. I also tried a complete restore and it still doesn't work. I wonder if the servers are having issues?
Sent from my XT1058 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

if you aren't worried about data then you can just use rsd to flash the updated FW on your phone. or manually do it. Or you can just push the OTA update file that it is trying to download manually into your /cache folder and then when you reboot the phone it will start installing the ota. easy workarounds. I haven't ever downloaded the OTA over the air actually. just push it to my phone from a computer so i don't have to wait for it to eventually pop up on my phone durring their rolling releases

I've tried multiple WiFi networks. I'm aware AT&T doesn't allow to update over data.

I don't know if this applies, but I had a similar issue with my Nexus 7 (2013). It wouldn't see the most recent update (JSS15R), even though it had been out for weeks. It just kept saying 'Your tablet is up to date.' While it's not quite the issue you're having, it might have an effect.
I went into Settings -> Apps and cleared data from both Google Services Framework and Download Manager. Then I rebooted and checked for an update again. I think it didn't work the first time, so I tried it again.
Hope it works, I hope to be getting a Moto X soon and would like to know if this works in case it happens to me!

Weirdest thing... I was out of the house for a couple hours so the download showed as paused in notifications.... I walked back into the house, picked up my Wi-Fi, and the update popped up as being ready to install within a minute. Hopefully yours eventually come through too Doctor.

[Q] YouTube - "Connection to Server Lost"

So I know this has been an issue for others in the past, but everything I've tried hasn't seemed to work. Every time I load up a video on Youtube, it seems like it's about to start but then says "Connection to Server Lost. Tap to Try again". This only happens when I'm not on WiFi though. I've tried restarting the phone, uninstalling all updates, clearing app data and cache, and none of that seems to work. I also don't have an AdBlocker so I know that isn't the issue. Everything else works when I'm not on WiFi though.
Any solutions? I would greatly appreciate it.

I apologize for the bump but is no one else experiencing this issue? My friend also had it happen to him after updating to the most recent OTA. So far it hasn't seemed to be fixed.

Had it happen before update but haven't tested since update. Will check it out tomorrow when I'm out. Service where I live is terrible so can't really test now.

Edit.. just tested and YouTube is working fine. But that's after a data and system wipe from flashing new firmware and whatnot

Hmm, alright. I'll probably need to know if others that are on stock and running the latest firmware are running into the same issue. Because it seems likely that the update is the reason.

I'm stock rooted running the latest firmware and my YouTube seems to be working fine on both wifi and 3g. No issues so far and I've watched quite a few videos the last couple of days. I'll let you know if anything changes though.

Okay well I'm getting extremely annoyed here. The problem temporarily resolved itself for a few days but now it's back and now I can't even watch youtube videos on any Internet browser. It just says "sorry. This video cannot be played." it's clear this isn't an app issue, but what the heck is causing this? I should be able to watch a damn youtube video.

At this point, I'm assuming it has to do with the combination of Sprint's towers and the latest update (since that's when it began to happen). If you do factory reset your phone, please tell me if it begins to work for you.

Sadly no. It's so strange though, sometimes I can see the video as if it knows it should be loading the video, but then decides to give me an error one second before it actually starts. It's almost like it's being blocked.
Haven't been able to get mine to work with CDMA only, either.

I have tried everything and never managed to get a video to load, ever, while not on WiFi since I got my M8.

I honestly believe it is Sprint's doing, since I remember the videos being unwatchably bad quality back on my stock EVO 3D, if they would load at all, but after rooting it and removing the sprint proxy that suddenly cleared up, both the glitchy nature and quality. Probably use some kind of broken proxy to reduce bandwidth used by Youtube.

It has been happening with my phone as well. Works occasionally, but it's not just youtube, it's pandora, podcats, and even wshh. The problem has been going on since the update. I did speak with someone at Sprint and it was the usual "turn this off, turn that on, enter this." It worked but than went out again. Phone is brand new and 13 days old. Hope somebody can figure this out before i exchange it.
