I have been running just about every 2.2 ROM out there without any problems. Last night, I installed a new ROM and couldn't access my Google account so I flashed back to stock. I then was able to sign into Google and the Market, ETC. I then flashed to COG and again couldn't sign into Google. I done a factory reset,booted into recovery to factory reset/ clear cache and still nothing! I keep getting the error message "Couldn't establish a connection" on every 2.2 ROM I have tried! Any help will be greatly appreciated.......
Could be because 2.2 messes up your Android ID, you probably need to reset it. From stock 2.1 get an app called Android ID changer and get your unique code, write it down. Then after flashing a 2.2 ROM use the same app to reset it back.
I just tried Android ID changer and it doesnt seem to work. I can still access my Google account on 2.1 but not any of the 2.2 ROMs.
Could someone upload the Android ID changer APK? I cant access the market and seem to have lost mine. Thanks

OK, now I have access to my G mail by logging in to you tube...Go figure! Now when I try to open the market, I get "a network error has occurred".
I still cant access the market. Anybody have any ideas on a possible fix? I have tried everything I can think of.

So I bought a Nexus One on craigslist. I thought it was all stock until I ran into the "cannot establish reliable sever connection" when I tried to sign into my google account. My question is how do I restore my phone back to the newest version of android 2.2. It is not unlocked (no unlocked padlock on boot screen). Under "Build number" it says "passion-userdebug Froyo FRE74 28579 test-keys." Under Android version it says "Froyo" instead of 2.2. And many of the 2.2 features are not present such as wifi tethering, and the new icons at the bottom center of the home screen aren't there. I only have the single grid icon and not the set of 3 with the browser and phone. And i'm not sure where to go from here. I want to be able to log into my gmail account and the android marketplace. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Assuming you verified you have Data Connection enabled and have the proper APN settings::::
Your seller may have rooted the phone without necessarily unlocking the bootloader. see
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=710842
Also, the link I just added shows the different versions of 2.2 (missing a couple) but FRE74 doesn't look like one of them.
First find out if it is a rooted phone, Check the app drawer for any SuperUser or Spareparts icon. That or try installing Busybox from the marketplace and executing it.
If it is rooted,flash one of the many ROMS available on XDA, Cyanogen just released his beta version tonight. Personally I use Enomther Rom. Official version is out.
And BTW, read up on the process of flashing... most require you to wipe first.
and if it is not rooted....
All you need to do is do a Factory Reset
Settings / Privacy / Factory Data Reset
After that check what your Build number is.
Then you can go to your dialler and enter
*#*#checkin#*#*
What that will do is connect your phone to the Google servers, say hello, and the server will send the update to your phone. (Force OTA - Over The Air update)
My data connection is working, I browse the internet fine except for the youtube app and gmail.com. When I go to gmail.com through my browser I get "a secure data connection could not be established." But yahoomail and flickr logins work fine on both wifi and 3g. No superuser or spareparts icons in the drawer. I can't access the android marketplace since I cannot log into my google account. I did the factory restore and the build number is the same. I did the checkin from my dialer and it said "checkin failed"
So it seems like the phone is rooted but I just need to flash a rom with the froyo features I want. Any links or guides to doing this? I read and superboot seemed like the easiest way.
Sounds to me like an issue with radio... flash a new radio might do the trick. However, before I start messing around with the radio not knowing anything about my phone, I'd look into doing this first.

This will bring your Nexus One back to it's original shipping rom. It's gonna be alot of work, BUT this IS almost a $600 phone.
So I followed those directions and i'm back on android 2.1 and i can log into my google and everything seems to work fine. I want to update to 2.2 so I go to system updates, download the update, and install. But during the install process it shows the little box with the android and the loading bar but it stops and goes to the android and the exclamation point. I'm not sure what to do from here. My Build Number is ERD79
Hold Volume up and press Power (or possibly the other way around). That should bring up the recovery menu.
I tried once with the OTA update I downloaded, the phone restarted and tried to install by itself but went to the android with the !. So I download a froyo rom and rename it update.zip, not .zip.zip. And put it on my phone, I'm in the blue recovery screen and it says signature error. I'm thinking its the wrong rom i'm using.
I'm now on my second SGS i9000 and although its a great phone I have had the same problem with both phones - Android market access does not work - either via 3G or via WiFi. I either get download unseucessful or the download starts and then stops with no install.... Doing a factory reset on both devices means I am able to download and install apps for 10 minutes or so before I am back to square 1 and both handsets refuse to download.
Inserting my SIM into yet another android phone (a Sony Ericsson X10a) sees access to the market and app downloads working fine.. any ideas? No access to the Android market pretty much makes the SGS i9000 about as usefulas a brick..
I've cleared caches and done all the usual stuff including soft and hard resets but to no avail....Any and all help would be hugely appreciated!

You may want to take a Nandroid backup then try a new ROM, maybe from Doc's Kitchen or something simple. Consensus of opinion seems to be that the only good way to fix a broken market is to install a new ROM.
Are you on stock currently?
It is indeed a stock ROM - very frustrating....
can somebody help me?
i can't download apps. its stuck on "start download" ...
i have original unlocked nexus one with 2.3.4 version of android (original rom)
i also can't use google talk , it says : "could not connect to server .."
what can i do ?
Menu> Settings> Applications> Manage Applications> select the All tab. Find Google Services Framework and delete data, then find Market and delete data and/or cache, then reboot your phone...
still the same problem
i must downgread os , or is there any working fix for it
It sounds like your phone isn't connecting to Google for whatever reason. Market and Talk appear to be linked, but I'm not sure how, since I've run a phone without Talk many times...
You could try deleting data from Talk also, and see if that helps?
i made factory reset for 2 or 3 times , but still nothing changed
i read somewhere that i must sign in google talk , but i'm getting error : "could not connect to server .."
i found fix myself .
1) i downgreaded to froyo 2.2 (original shipped version of phone) and market worked
2) then i updated to 2.3.4 gingerbeard , and market still works , but account in google talk MUST BE IN AVAIABLE mode , if someone choose invisible , marked will not work again . that's all !
NOTE: i have unlocked and unrooted nexus one
someone make this something like to tutorial , i know few peoples have same kind problem and this will help them
Hi
i tried to download an app but that didnt work - i was able to download payed apps and update the apps. So i followed all the help and forum advices but still could not download free apps. I have now done a soft reset and it is still not working - it got worse to not installing any apps or updates. I used the Sony Update Service Tool and did a reinstall of the newest Firmware, still i cannot download any apps!
thanks for your support
Does it show any error message?

no thats the thing, it shows nothing...it just displays the Blue bar and downloading. I now rerouted the phone to connect through the USA via my own VPN tunnel i have, and it works. So it must be something wrong with the Swiss or German Play Servers - or my settings registered at those servers.
I also noticed that even after a reset not everything is deleted on the phone. For example my phone still lists all visited access points under the wifi tab. I wiped it, flashed it, rooted it and it still has those settings there...so strange. Also the backup tool from sony is crap
Hey all,
Just for funs I started up the G1 again today.
Now when I got it a few years back, I was able to finally downgrade with a goldcard and yada yada yada. Bottom line, I was in. I had my phone set up and all was working.
Today I start it up and it seems I have a log in error.
But somehow it wont accept my Google password.
I have 2-step verification set up. Could that be the problem ?
Anyone ?
I've been able to log in my Google account using two-step authentication, but have been unable to log in to Android Market. I'm running a FroYo 2.2 ROM (CM 6.1).
Google dropped support for Android Market on versions older than 2.1 in 2017, and I was hoping that it would work with this 2.2 ROM, but no dice.
just did downgrade yesterday to free up 10 meg space then found out market no longer works ...
