market - multiple attempts to download apps

when i download apps from the market they show in my notifications car like normal but once there done downloading it doesnt install. i have to go to the market and hit cancel and then try to download it again and again until in finally installs. i was told once to delete the download folder, the android-secure folder and the lost.dir folder on my sdcard and that works but i have to delete those folders over and over again everytime i wanna download one app.anyone have a solution or similar problems ?
i did notice that if i download an app and it doesnt install the apk file appears in my download folder and i could use astro to install in manually. THIS IS REALLY FRUSTERATING!
Try clearing data+cache for the market, fixed It when I had a problem downloading.
If updating an app stored on the SD, try moving the app back to the phone first.
If installing a new app, try unmounting the SD first, and remount afterwards.

thanks guys tried to clear cache and that didnt work. and i could move my app back to internal and then back to external but my a2sd is automatically implemented with a ext3. so i flash the rom and its auto moves my a2sd. even in titanium i cant move a2sd. so how would i do that. for example one app im trying to update is flash 10.1

[Q] how can i move files from sd card to emmc(no pc)

Can someone tell me how to move files to the internal memory without connecting to pc.
when i try doing it wth file manager it says file could not be moved
i cant pay for any app right now, need something free
notenoughspace is one app that can do it but i again i cant pay for it right now. If anyone has it plz post the apk.
What ROM do you use? Astro File Manager works fine with Nokie Froyo and rooted stock.
P.S. Are you aware that if you want to store files in eMMC, you should place them in /media folder, not in /,/system etc.?
I am using cm7 right now, i try to place files in my files and it fails
Edit: it working now, but only copy and paste, when i use move, it fails but thats not a problem anyway.
i think the place you are trying to put the files is mounted as read only. Try putting files in the /media/ folder using astro or esf
Root Explorer is best file/rights manager...
Good question. Once you have Root Explorer working, try emailing the files to your self then install to SD Card or eMMC.
Good luck m8.
I use Dropbox to port files to my Nook, Gtab, and Evo phone. Just open Dropbox and download the file on your device. Dropbox puts it on your SD card in the "Dropbox" directory. Then you just use Root Explorer to move and paste from there to your emmc memory folders.

How do i delete the rest of the game data?

I've noticed that these hd games tend to have low sizes but once you start them they download like huge size data. And after you delete the game that huge size of data is still there. How do delete it?
You have to have a File Manager App installed to do this. Browse your SD card until you find the download directory and manually delete the folder.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
or you could plug the phone into the PC and browse to the SDcard like that.
That would of course work as well, you're right

Well anyways, I was looking for the apk files so that I could back them up if I reset my phone. I obviously don't want to go downloading them again. They are found in mnt/asec. I found out. But still, thanks.

[Q] Problem download file browser after root

Hi to all.
Yesterday I've rooted my Samsung SIII Mini N (Vodafone IT) with JB 4.1.2
Now I've root and 2 partition on SD and work well for app on external SD now.
But after rooting I've a strange problem, if I use any browser (chrome, firefox, dolphin, internet ecc.) and I want to save a file or picture in a folder of external SD I can't now. Before rooting I can. Now message is "not space to save file" but I've 3 GB free on phone and 10 GB fred on SD.
If i Save file or picture on phone folder download is ok, when I try to SD folder is bad.
I've try to set permission all on SD folder but not save my change (I use root folder and try other software but the same result).
How I can resolve? Thanks :good:
