I got message of update for market, I restarted and did market fix and now it won't start up at all. I get "Server error has occurrred. retry or cancel and return to previous screen." I have tried fix 4-5 times with no success. Do I need to uninstall market and re install it some how?
I had that too. What I did was do the market fix. Make sure you go to market and see the error notification after you do the clear data. Restart Gtab. Wait for a few minutes for wireless connection to start up, then go to market. If that does not work, just restart your gtab again, without doing the market fix, and wait for a few minutes then go to market.
Hope this help!
no go
I have tried the market fix at least 5 times and it still gives me the error. I notice now that there is no data to clear in applications/market, it just shows gray. I also noticed on my PC, in market my Google account shows I don't have any devices now..... Am I going to have to reinstall my entire ROM? I hope not as I have my tab running just right, other than the market!
Any ideas?
Back up your apps with TitaniumBackup, do a fresh rom rebuild, and use TitaniumBackup to restore your apps.
Do the market fix but instead of clearing the cache in the market clear the data. After you reboot, run the market app, accepted license agreement. At this point you should have the limited market. Now just do the normal market fix to bring back the full market. Can't make any promises but it worked for me.
Working again
I guess Google was jacked up yesterday, because tonight I was able to open market and accept license agreement and then run market fix again.... Wierd
Thanks to those who responded to my thread!

launch gtalk, let it sign in, then hit home. Then go back to market, click download, and then STAY ON THE MARKET SCREEN until it finishes, then watch it, and make sure it installs. Most likely, you have a lot of background service apps that are in memory all the time. Your phone is running out of memory and killing the Market before it can finish installing. Keeping it open during install will keep Android from killing it.

I tried to do what you said but every time as the download is about to reach 100% I get a Market forceclose. Then I get the notification of "download complete" but when I go back to the Market it's as if I never downloaded it
I have the latest cyan but ever since I got the 4th prior update for cyan anything I try and download on the market just stays and say "starting download" and I even did fix permissions and also I clean the cache in the market! What do I do? I want to update my apps
Try a full wipe, and then starting clean, I know it's a pain, but that's what I always do when I get problems, most of the time it fixes it.
you can also go to apps and find market and uninstall updates, that worked for me
Open Google Talk. It will take a couple of seconds to sign in. Downloads will then work.
The market uses something in Google Talk to start the downloads or something... I don't ask questions, I just know it works.
google talk wont even open! wtf lol, and i want a wipe to be the last resort! anything but starting all over again AGAIN lol
erm.....wrong section?
sorry, but does anyone know how to fix this problem?
The problem is you need to be signed in to google talk to be able to download from the market. If it won't even open you're gonna need to reflash.
The same issue
I am experiencing the same issue (permanent "Starting download...") with Market.
Now I am signed in to GoogleTalk but it does not fix the issue.
Any ideas?
I have got: US T-mobile 1.5 CRC1.
have you tried going to settings>applications>manage applications>market then clicking "uninstall updates"?
somebody else mentioned it here, but nobody else ever gave any feedback. i had a similar issue to this and uninstalling the market updates fixed it. when you're on your market homepage, is there a "T-Mobile" button?
I post this thread because out seems no has yet to acknowledge this problem with the market.it seem in the market display paid app icon doesn't display neither dose the paid apps.

1) You have posted in the wrong forum.
2) Market works fine in 2.2 unless you flashed one of the pre-release builds.
The sticky at the top of the N1 gen forum tells you in bold NOT TO ASK QUESTIONS.
Ask them in the Q/A section. Gen section is for news, tips only...

I'm having the same, or very similar problems. Basically, I'm seeing paid apps, and my purchases, but I'm not seeing the "Top Paid" tab, nor is the Market acting in any sane or rational way. For example, I install an app, and the notification bar will say downloading, then installing, then the notification that it installed. In the Market download window, though, I see it download, then switch to installing, but never get beyond that.
What started all this with me was this. Using Linda File Manager, I uninstalled a couple of apps (was trying out the feature since I was in there). In this case, it was Google Earth (don't really use it), and a Pirate game that I never grocked. Anyway, in the Market they wouldn't leave my list in the Downloads, so I wiped the cache and data in the Market app in Settings > Applications > Manage Applications.
After that, all my apps appeared as uninstalled in the downloads window, and the issue with installation started. First thing I did was try and reinstall all the apps, and ended up with a huge list of apps that were installed, but were marked as still installing by the market. Killing the market app cleared out the hung install progress bars. The other thing that started happening was that not all of my installed apps appeared in my download list. KO Boxing, for example was on the featured list as upgradable, but it wasn't in my download list to upgrade.
Ultimately, what I decided to do was wipe the phone and see what happened. After wipe, I logged in and FRF91 didn't restore my apps like it had in the past. In fact, the market was exactly the same as it was before the wipe, with all my apps showing as free or purchased. Installing issue was also the same. Now, I know that Google backs up the settings, so I thought maybe that had something to do with it. I wiped again, but in the configuration process post-wipe, I selected for Google to not restore from backup (hit menu in the setup when you are entering your username/password). This brought me through the process much quicker, but with no change in the market function.
So, I'm still without a "Top Paid" tab, nor with a all together sane Download window. It's frustrating the heck out of me, and I'm about to go back to whatever the 2.1-r1 release was (ERE27?) and see if that makes any different.
The ROM I'm running is the FRF91 full release from lox_dev:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715799
If T-Mobile is doing the OTA's to FroYo from 2.1-r1, then maybe I'll let it do it's own thing today and then see if that fixes it. Ugh.

The above snipped sections are my story too.
Updated last week manually from ERE27 to FRF85b to FRF91 using the official stock clients each time. Non rooted N1. I spent 6 hours on Friday night trying to sort this..
I've got posts up on the Google Nexus One forums also and am holding where I am for a definitive fix. It's very frustrating though..
Go to menu>applications> magage applications> all apps> market then force quit and clear data and whatever else is in there.

I tried that on Friday night. Once I'd done that, none of my installed apps showed in the Downloads section.
That's why I did a full wipe and set the phone back up. Luckily I was still able to find all my apps, including the purchased ones. However the missing 'Top Paid' button and slow market performance persisted.
So, for fun, I pushed back to ERE27 (2.1-r1) and same issue. No "Top Paid" in the Market, and issues with installation. This is complete wipe, nothing installed on the phone after imaging.
I let it upgrade to FRF91, which didn't change anything. I'm now pretty convinced that whatever this is is completely account related on the Google server side of things, and it needs to be sorted out by them
Guess I'll have to figure out who to contact for support from Google :/

I'm working the Google angle also plus have posts on several forums and watches on more.
Please can you keep this thread updated with your progress and I'll do the same.

I've made contact with Google via email and this is now being investigated.
I'm sending them a summary of the problems I've been having and pointing them at various threads both here and in the Market so that they can see how widespread this problem is.
I've also tried a full hard reset and cache wipe without luck. My belief is that this is something that Google need to sort server-side, so I'm done with my wiping and reinstalling for now...

Looks like this has now been fixed server-side.
I got my 'Top Paid' tab back this morning - Yay!
So I had a few apps get the infinite Installing Android Market bug thanks to a wireless router dying at a bad time. The only thing that worked short of doing a factory reset was to uninstall the market update.
So my question is how do I get the Market update to reinstall?
Thanks
(Not rooted, stock ROM)
Uninstall application, then reinstall. Just a hunch.

Were it only so simple. The 2.2 market enchancements were a silent upgrade, so there's no market link. And beyond that, the Market no long appears up on the manage Applications list in the system settings.
I've been having the same issues as well, very frustrating! I've been searching here and good ol' google on how to get that update back...to no avail yet.
Did you ever get any success?
Pulled this. See if it works for you.
Thanks
Trying to side load it now, but I can't seem to get droid explorer to work. sigh.....
It connects to the phone fine, but then when I go to install the package, it gives me a new window that wants to install something. I don't really remember that window coming up in the past, but to be honest it's been quite awhile since I've used droidexplorer... So I click isntall, and the program immediately crashes.
So, I put the file on my web server, and downloaded it from there. (Got some annoying lovely messages about the phone being out of space until I cleared the browser download list....) It downloaded fine, but when I go to install it, I get "Parse Error There is a problem parsing the package."
On an odd hunch, I started poking around the file structure in DroidExplorer, and was able to pull my own MarketUpdater.apk out and save it to the computer. So I threw that on the webserver, and was able to download it fine, AND re-install it. No idea if that will actually DO anything, but hey, figured it was worth a shot.
So now that I've waited 15 minutes after reinstalling the marketupdater.apk, (big surprise) nothing's changed.
EDIT:
Went to grab a sandwich for lunch, and decided to pop into the ATT store since it was right next to where I was eating. Asked one of the reps that I have a pretty good relationship with about the issue, and he said a customer came in not too long ago with the same issue, and the only resolution was a system wipe. Hopefully we can get around it...Of course, if not, and I do have to do a wipe, I'll just upgrade to 2.2....
Hi, all of a sudden the apps that I have on my phone that are free don't show up in the My Apps section on the android market. Only the paid apps are there, and if I get a free app now, that one will show up, but all the other apps that I currently have on my phone are not there anymore. Is there a way to correct this?
Thanks
This has been happening to me as well. Once I went to Manage Applications and cleared data and cache for the market, and it fixed it. It happened again, but that fix didn't work a second time. Eventually they all showed up again after a little while. It hasn't happened since, but I'm hoping it doesn't.
BTW, I'm running jaybob413's CM6 31DEC release
this has been happening to my as well with my mt4g stock rooted. Clearing the data/cache of the market, opening the market, installing something, closing the market and then reopening it has gotten my apps to show back up in the "My apps" area.
