I've been unable to install apps from the Android Market Website since day 1. I've exchanged a number of e-mails with Google Support which suggested the usual:
Log-out of Google Talk and then log back in.
Turn phone off, remove battery, turn back on.
I also cleared application data for the Market.
When using the website, my device/account is recognised and i'm not presented with any errors when clicking install. The icon then turns to 'Installed' but nothing happens on my phone. No download in progress, no installation. Google said they were aware of an issue and applied a fix, but this hasn't changed anything for me. I'm using Android Market 2.3.2 and running Darkyy's ROM 9.3 b3 (but I've searched that thread and not found anyone with the same problem). Chrome-to-phone pushes are working fine and using the market through my phone also works fine.
Anybosy else had the same problem?
b does that not mean its a Beta rom unfinished released for testing and bug reports only .
I would try app brain http://www.appbrain.com/info/getting-started
Or use another rom

it is a beta, you're right, but nobody else seems to be having the same issue which makes me a little hesitant to attribute it to the beta ROM. It was also the case with the beta 2. I've used AppBrain, but hoping to get the Android Market Website working. I'll report back once a stable release for Darkyy's is released, and failing that, I'll try a stock ROM and let you know. Cheers.
I'll report back once a stable release for Darkyy's is released
due date the twelfth of never .

Just thought i'd point out that this issue was sorted by an update by google on their side.

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.
So, I have android installed on my vogue everything works fine I have data and everything working just fine.
A problem recently popped up when trying to install an app from the market.. The app download process was going a be slow and appeared stuck so I canceled download and started it again then it said "download unsuccessful" this happens on all apps.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2 the problem disappeared then a appeared like an hour later.
I have tried every possible solution for this issue and nothing works.
I love FroYo 2.2 but this issue is annoying me into bits..
Ps I have replaced my battery today and the problem is still here.. I installed using NAND btw..
Thanks, Abyy<3
market problem
i did sum version checking and 2.1 had no problem with it just 2.2 i think its market place not the rom or your cell im keeping 2.2 because i think its just errors that need to be fixed with 2.2 with the apps some install fine that are 2.1 avalible new aps 2.2 aare the problem it seems let me know what you think i think 2.2 is the bomb just sum issues needa be fixed with market place because 2.2 is new
Try it again but this time remove the SD card. Works for me when I keep getting download unsuccessful.
i have this same issue on Incubus RLS13 w/ latest NBH, fresh install to nand on my Sprint Vogue...
no apps install and i get the error you indicate above. ' download unsuccessful '
curious what is going on.....
Hello everybody,
I've searched around this and other fora for my problem, but I found nothing. I bought my SGS about 2 months ago. It came with Android 2.1 installed and, through Kies, I updated it to 2.2 Froyo. After that, I decided to flash Darky's 9.2, as I heard a lot of good things about it.
After flashing everything was fine for a couple of days, 'till I started installing some camera-based apps, like Barcode Scanner and Google Goggles: I used them about three times, then they started force closing (Google Goggles) or showing a black screen instead of the camera view (Barcode Scanner). The situation grew worst and worst as my camera app started giving me a "Warning - Camera Failed" as soon as i switched to video mode. I read on Android Forums this problem could be caused by some of those camera-using apps, so I uninstalled both Barcode Scanner and Google Goggles, but nothing changed.
Other listed solutions were to disable lagfixes, change ROM/firmware, reset the phone, but none of this helped.
After experiencing those problem with Darky's 9.2, I upgraded to the new Darky's 9.3, but I still experienced the same damned issue. Thinking of some software issue with Darky's, I formatted the phone, disabled any lagfix I had and tried to flash Jimmy's/Hamster's v6.3. Well it's blazing fast, but I still have a similar problem: both camera and video mode work flawlessly, but both Barcode Scanner and Google Goggles force close, while Layar reports it is "unable to access camera hardware".
And now here I am, asking for your help. Thanks in advance.
Loads of posts on this subject on Darky posts suggest one you search them two you delete the rom and go back to stock .Then use another custom rom of your choice .

Thank you for your post, but, as I stated, I've already searched for my problem and no solution worked. Also, I've already flashed to another ROM (Darky's-> Hamster's).
I also have the problem with camera. Try to find the newest firmware and update it, maybe that will solve the problem.
When i updated fw, camera worked fine for a couple of hours, and then, iI don't know how, phone automatically switched to my old fw (about 1-2 hours after rebooting).
Then I have to restart the phone and camera works fine again with new fw.
It's so annoying, but i don't have the complete solution yet. Btw, i'm on Darkys 9.6.6.
Sounds like you're missing the stock email.apk

Hi, sorry for writing here and not to the particular topic, in pure android development forum, where this discussion is already on, but thats the stupid way, how posting is set here on this forum.
I need help with last FRX06 and Gingerbread releases - and trust me, i've tried all combinations of last system files and last 8 releases of kernel.
Final state is this:
1) in FRX06, everything works, except of camera - camera works for 2-3 seconds, then closes with the error dialog
2) in Gingerbread, everything works, except of my data connection - neither 2G or 3G, I also tried all different settings of cdma in the startup.txt, 2G/3G settings in the menu - everything. And it never works - not just after reboot as someone mentioned here, for me, it works never
Please, if you know, how to solve (preferably the first, i think it can be somehow solved) any of these problems, help me.
BTW today Im gonna upgrade to the newest Energy ROM, because I'm using the one from january - i think this has no connection to Android, but i will try after it again
Radio I'm using the newest stable
Thank you very much

Opened home switcher app. Set homeswitcher to ‘Launcher’
Checked camera. Pressed home key and phone went back to original setup wizard screen, the one you see when you wipe your phone. I continued to press next to get through the sequence. Home screen switched back to ‘TwLauncher’ appeared to be the only change.
Pressed home button. Ticked box to set default. Selected ‘Launcher’
Tested camera again. I pressed the home key to get out of the app and the home switcher option came up again. Once again, selected to tick box to set the action as a default and picked ‘Launcher’.
Tested camera again. The home button properly went to the default this time.
The Places app does not launch.
Modified some settings inside Spare Parts app. Animation and wifi sleep policy.
Changed faster fix app to show China.
Opened Gmail app, rec’d ‘stopped unexpectedly’ message. Force close.
Tried to respond to an SMS message, rec’d ‘stopped unexpectedly’ message when I tapped the box to bring up the keyboard. Force close.
Opened Messaging app and tried again to respond to SMS message with same result.
Went to settings, modified input method to ‘Touch Input Chinese’, the device shutdown immediately.
Restarted phone. Unlocked screen and rec’d message ‘Process system is not responding’. It stayed there momentarily and then did a very quick reboot. I unlocked the screen and rec’d the same message.
I selected force close. The home screen was black with no wifi or phone service. Touching the applications button opened the list of app icons but the phone eventually the device did its very quick reboot.
I held the power button down for several seconds to force the device to turn off. I pressed the power button in hopes of it starting up normally… with the exception of having no phone service, it did seem to start normally.

Flashed stock ROM and returned to starting point noted at beginning of the post.
Please forgive the post above if you find it offensively long. I have spent the past week reading anything I can as it relates to Darky’s ROM and can’t find anything that seems to relate to the problems I am finding. Admittedly, I am a n00b and this is my very first experience with custom ROM in the android OS. (I made the switch from iOS a month or so ago where the game of JB and unlocks became to frustrating.)
I have installed Darky’s ROM many times over the past week and cannot get anywhere near what I consider a stable platform. Events such as ‘force close’ and system reboots are so frequent, surely that can’t be the norm. Is this to be expected?
From the description in the post above, have I done something wrong? It seems like the most frequent response and solution is to flash the ROM again. I have done that and never seem to get the same response.
I realize this is a custom ROM. I just don’t hear others mentioning the issues I have described so I am guessing they don’t exist for anyone else.
You should tell Darky .
Majority of helps posted on this forum are for Darky roms fact not fiction .

@jje Thanks for your advice. I will take this question over to Darky's forum. I was hoping that the larger pool of potential readers here would be able to offer some advice.

Not an answer but you can build your own rom .

This is not an answer, but for me Darky's ROM v9.5 wasn't stable either. It just stopped working every few hours, just turned off my phone without notice etc.
I'm not sure what the problems was but I think there are some unresolved issues with v9.5.
After flashing stock JVK + darky10kernel + Darky's ROM v10.0 RC3, all my problems were gone tho and my phone has never been smoother. But v9.5.. I just don't know.

quite weird how so many people say 9.5 is good, and so many other people say 9.5 is bad
i upgraded to 9.5 from 9.2 about 4 hours ago and so far it seems fine
I did a no-wipe upgrade and am using dark core kernel 1.0 that came with the mod itself
not switching to 10.0 because it requires a wipe cant be bothered till 2.3 goes official
Try flashing kernel 1.2 darkcore
9.5 not rock solid, but not that bad either
I'm running 9.5 for a couple of days now, and although I ran into some minor problems, I cannot say it is that bad. It hang once, sometimes I have a small problem installing apps from the Market, but apart from that, it's OK. I think 9.3 had less problems, so if you want to go for a more stable Darky's ROM, go for 9.3. Or wait until 10 is official released.
Go through resurection
One more tip: I noticed you started from a non-Darky ROM. What you can do (and it's what I did) is install the Resurection edition of Darky's ROM. It's essentially the 9.2 version and you can flash it with Odin. After doing that, you can be sure to have a clean Darky environment. You can even see how that one works, I know a few colleagues who are still on 9.2 and fully happy with that. But if you want to upgrade, it's much easier from there. Just use Darky's configurator after you copied the ZIP file to you SD card. It's easy, and like I said, for me it is pretty stable!
Flash 9.3 first then flash over that with 9.5. I have used a lot of Darky's roms and never once had any major issues with them. 9.5 is a good rom

I want to go backwards (I am on 9.5 and battery life sucks).
How do I go from 9.5 to 9.4? Can I just download 9.4 and use the Darky's Rom Configurator and install it the same way I went from 9.4. to 9.5?
9.4 was deprecated due to heavy issues. The previous stable one is 9.3. You can install it with Darky's configurator, indeed.
Bugs will be fixed step by step ....
But I prefer Ultimate v8.2 with Tegrak Kernel ...
