Is anyone having problems with getting Appbrain and the Fast Web Installer to work on their Captivates with Froyo? And yes, I have installed the Fast Web Install app and activated it on my Cappy. If I am on my PC and I try to install an app from the internet, I get this error message:
"Fast Web Install is not available for your phone due to a bug in the Android Operating System"
AlsoI noticed sometimes if I download something directly from the Android Market, it says it is downloading but it will not do anything. Other times, it works just fine so I'm kind of confused. Anyone else notice anything? I did not have any problems with Eclair.
Also, I wonder if it was something to do with the fact that I used Titanium Backup to restore apps + data. I did not however restore any of the system data, just the app data. I have already reinstalled both the Appbrain and Fast Web Install app.
Just to update: The problem I am also having is that something will download completely as well but it will not install. It shows that it is fully downloaded but won't install. Any suggestions?
I'm having problems with appbrain as well. I had 2.1 unmodified, did the 2.2 flash and can't send installs from the appbrain web site to my mobile.
Just encountered this problem with app brain as well. I also have occasional weird frozen installs from market, have to restart those. wonder if we missed something.
I had the market force close on me earlier when I was loading a bunch of applications. Not all at the same time either.
Problem with Fast Web Installer and Appbrain on FroyoArrow
Only issue I had was my app lists were not syncing after I updated to the new 2.2 leak. I had to delete my appbrain account online, uninstall the app from the phone. Then sign back up for a new appbrain account and reinstall the app. Seems to be ok now.
I have the same problem.
I try to delete the account and sign up again.
Deleted both application in the phone, and reinstall.
I can send text and url's to the phone just fine.
uninstall seems to work too.
But automatic instalation does not.
What could i try to solve this?
(yes its on froyo)
After reading extensively on the Cognition thread, I found out that the reason the Fast Web Installer does not work is that since we are running a leaked build of froyo, everyone has the same Android device ID.

After following these steps, I was able to get Fast Web Installer to work. Hope that helps.
How did you install sqlite3 on the device?
Its not in mine..
Thanks howsleyd!
I ended up copying the db into my desktop and modifing it there.
I actually has a android_id code setted up. So i modified it and invented a new.
Now Fast install works fine.
Thanks!
Fast Web Installer not working for me either after 9.1
I downloaded Android ID Changer and changed a few numbers and changed it.... reboot and everything is good with Appbrain and the market
Ever since the update, I have been having a problem with Market. I have tried all of the "fixes" but to no avail. I DO have access to Market, but only the limited one. Here is my problem: when going through the steps, I get market started, browse around a bit, then go to my "home" screen,[ I use Launcher Pro]. I go to settings, but I cannot find Market under the Running section. I can't even find it under the System services, section. I see it under the Downloads section. When I do the steps as directed, nothing happens. I do not get the "error" message that I am supposed to get. And when I start up again, I still have limited access to Market. It is frustrating that most, if not all, of the app sites depend on access to Market, e.g. appbrain, droidpit, etc. I am not ready to go Tnt lite. I did see a thread to flash parts of the rom, and add market, etc, but am afraid it would disable OTA for the future. Any suggestions?

Losing the OTA is not that big a deal. Viewsonic posts a link to their updates on their site and a link is posted here within seconds of an update showing up.
Are you using "Market" or gMarket" that comes with the 3389 update?
When you run "Market" browse around and then hit the "home" button. Unless you have a taskmanager installed, market will stay running. Market should then show up under the "running" section. I am a little confused because I have never seen the Market under the "downloaded" section.
Thanks...
Thanks, BadFrog for the reply. I use Market. The gmarket gets me to Handango, which is really not that good. For some reason, Market does not show up under running, no matter what I do. I even tried to download a freebie to ensure it is running. But when I hit the home button, and go to the settings, it, as well as the other app I am supposed to force close are both under the downloaded, and not in running. Is there a way to reinstate OTA after flashing the market fix?
How exactly did you install the market. (I'm installing an older backup of tntlite becuase the menu structure is a bit different from vegan but the same as stock) I can install stock and market the way you did and see if I can help.

I had the same issue too with the market. I found this thread with the market fix. Just go to step 6 and follow the instruction on Youtube link.

I have the same problem after installing market and google apps through the same process. Everytime I launch market it says no apps found until I click one of the categories at the top. Even then, there are only some apps listed and most searches I try for apps I want to install (mog music for instance) aren't found by searching either.
I believe it has something to do with the version of the market, and whatever viewsonic put on the tablet by default? That said, I have tried to upgrade to the new market from an APK file I found in the forums here and it won't install. Hmmm

Thanks for the video link talexander18!! I'm was Vegan5 and still not getting the full market ... that did the trick for me.
Market
BadFrog, I used the files that came with the fix. It had a folder GTablet, with subfolders, and I transfered over files from the APK, permissions, etc, to my tablet, and I ran the apks, in the order suggested. I actually did this before the latest upgrade and it worked fine. But with the latest one, for some reason, Market, and the other google app I am supposed to force close won't come up in the running section.

I'm gonna assume your using the official viewsonic update 3389 then. I would suggest installing the performance pack from here

This will get you the latest NVidia drivers and the market. You will keep the complete stock look.
Yes, I guess that is what I will try next. Thanks.
I have a nook color running froyo on the internal memory, and cannot download apps from the market. I tried reinstalling and signing in to goggle through talk, re pushing the market apk and google services apk, clearing the cache and data for both apps, and reinstalling. Still no luck, although im trying market enabler now. Any ideas?
same problem here. a fix would be greatly appreciated

Have you tried either of these methods:

None of those methods worked, and the market enabler didn't either

agree, thanks but none this work..i am using nookie-froyo-0.6.8.custom.2.zip
market can be a ***** sometimes.
wipe market data over and over (and reboot) until it works.
CM7
no longer use froyo, CM7 is coming...
I'm having the same problems with the same version of 2.2. Never had any problems with the older versions I tried.
I have tried lots and lots of things. I usualy get it to work for maybe 1 download after after I uninstall one app, once it worked after I moved all the apps I had on the sd card to the internal memory. Sometimes I got it to work by canceling the google talk login.
The fact remains the latest 2.2 version is broken somehow.
I'm having the same problem.
Edit: I found a solution to my problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11545846&postcount=400
"To fix market download problems I force stopped Market, cleared its cache and data. Did the same for Google Framework Services. Then in ROM Manager I fixed permissions, rebooted to recovery. In recovery I formatted cache. I got the four unable to mount cache messages that others reported, but the Market works."
Did you accidently/purposely delete any of the Gtalk, Talk, or TalkProvider apks? If so then you'll need to go back to stock and re-root. If not, then start up the Google Talk app, login if not already, then logout, then login again.
When is CM7 comming ???

i have this weird problem:
first, i'm running CM7 from a verygreen's SD card
it was running fine but i had some force closes so i resintalled from the begining (reflashed verygreens image), then installed CM7.0.2, installed gapps, and when the market was downloading all of my apps, my system crashed down, and had to reboot.
After that, i havent been able to see my free apps in the "My Apps" tab of the market, i can see my paid apps.
tried to reflash again verygreens image to delete everything, upgraded to n59, still, only see my paid apps. tried restore them with titanium, and they restore, but the "Attach to market" option does not work for me
when i log to the web market, it shows that all my apps (free and paid) as if they were already installed
has anyone else seen this behaviour? any idea?
thanks

Not really, but you might try this... Install and run Appbrain, sync up with it, etc.. then go into the Market app.
When I was messing with ROMs a while back with apps already on my SD ext partition they'd show up to run but not in the Market, but running Appbrain always "attached" them for me. Did it several times.
Using CM7, I was experiencing the same issue, but any new app I downloaded, free or paid, would then show up in the market. I wasn't too concerned, as I only had 5 free apps from the market. Amazon Market, which is where most of my apps are, showed all without an issue.

thanks a lot, this attached all my restored apps (with TitatiumB) to the market again.
missing apps still fail to be re-downloaded, but not a problem since i have a full backup of my apps, just have to restore them and reattach with appbrain

I still have no idea why it works, but glad it does
Samsung Captivate SGH-I897
Rooted with Odin
Android Version 2.3.7
Flashed Cyanogen 7.1.0
Kernel Version 2.6.35.12
gapps 2011 0828
After flashing ROM and installing google apps, I get "Server error, Retry" message when trying to connect to Android Market. Doesn't matter if I try connecting using 3g or wifi. When I connect to the Market using my computer, I see all my apps listed as "installed". When I choose to install a new app from the Market using my computer, it shows that it's being sent to my phone, but my phone never gets it. Anybody know what's going on?
Nothing Google is working. Typing a search in the google search box forces web browser to close. Reset phone and entered info for google account, but I get the same error message.
Try this:
Go to Settings>Application>Manage Apps>All
Then scroll down and look for the Market app. Press the app, force stop, then clear data. Do a normal reboot just to make sure. Then see if that fixed it.

Yeah, tried that a couple times. Did it again, just for fun, with same result. Am I using the wrong google apps pack? I'll try a couple different ones. Really want google to recognize my phone again. Currently, no syncing of gmail, calendar, contacts, app updates, etc.
ok. Quick update. Found info on Cyanogen forum that recommended Re-flashing Cyanogen 7.1.0 and re-installing google apps pak. After I did this, my phone asked me to sign in to google accounts, and immediately started downloading all my Market apps. I was excited until, my status bar said "error downloading xxxx" for each and every app it tried to restore. After the 47th app, it finally stopped and gave the error message: "The application Market (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again".
As it turns out, about 1/3 of my apps were restored properly. Not sure what to do about the rest.
Ah I'm sorry about that. I had the same problem before and all I did was clear data to fix it.
(For future reference, use titanium backup, downloadable from the market, to backup&restore your apps before flashing a new ROM. Make a copy of the Titanium Backup folder from your SD card and store it on your PC. That way, if you accidentally formatted your SD card, you'll always have a copy of the folder to restore your apps.)

Thanks. I did make a Titanium backup, but needed to install Titanium from the market in order to restore it. As it turns out, after rebooting the phone, the market app is working now, so I just decided to restore the apps I want manually. Currently, I am using my computer to look at my library of apps on the market, and clicking install to restore only the ones I really want. It's nice to see that all the ATT bloatware is available if needed, but it's not being forced on me.
Glad things worked out for you, eventually. Yes, that's a nice feature from AT&T. I don't like their apps it just takes up space. But if I need to sell my phone as stock its nice to have the AT&T apps back
