Am running Phiremod 5.1 and am able to use market to find and install apps, but updates are no longer happening. I tried Atrackdog and AppBrain, but which recognize when an app is out of date, but when they go to market to update, I get the "the requested item could not be found." If I manually go to market and search for the app, it will recognize that the desired app needs updating, and it will allow me to update it.
I've tried clearing the Market cache, but this doesn't change the behavior.
Am running market version 2.3.6.
I used to have Market issues on my Froyo ROM but I recently switched to CM7 and have had no issues. Have you tried wiping your Market Cache+Data? If you still can't get it to work PM me and I can get some of the updates for you and send you the APKs.

Since I've updated from modaco's frf72 r18 rom to the latest r19 rom I can't install any apps... not just from the market, but directly from my sd too.
I ideally would like to go back to the stock rom with no mods.

I have factory reset/wiped and reverted to the FRF83 stock rom - and now the majority of apps install. The only apps that won't install are Google apps - like Google Sky Map and Google Earth, and the Mod Install Location app which I really need. Any explanation for this?
I've been having random issues running the same ROM but only apps I try to install from the Market. They'll download then just sit there. Sometimes they will install and sometimes they won't.

I've been getting the exact same thing on FRF50, FRF72 and now FRF83!
I can manually install from SDcard 'Download' when the Market install process stalls after download, but this obviously doesn't then update the app status on Market 'My Downloads'.
I've done the usual clear data form the Market app, reboot & login method to no avail. Very frustrating
Any ideas much appreciated!
This happens to me with apps from my SD card too.

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
Turned my phone on today and found that there were only my paid apps listed in "My Downloads" and none of the free apps I'd downloaded, did some searching and found the fix, which was to find an already installed free app, uninstall it via Market then reinstall. All my free apps returned to their rightful spot in "My Downloads".
Unfortunately before I had found that solution I did the usual troubleshooting of clearing the cache and data for the Market app itself.
Problem is that now the Market app won't update itself to the newest version (newest version has the "Update Automatically" checkbox for apps that I very much want back). Previously I'd cleared the data for the Market app and it had updated itself back to the newest version no problems, but for some reason this time it's not doing it.
Apparently the Market app updates itself if you open the Market, hit the Home key and then wait 10 minutes, but it's just not doing it for some reason. I've tried a number of combinations of reboots, clearing cache, force closing the Market app etc. etc. but have had no luck. I've found a few vending.apk files on the net including a few here on XDA but none of them seem valid as Package Installer doesn't recognize them as a valid apk.
Any suggestions? Milestone running stock 2.1update1, rooted.
I wanna update manually too, if it's possible?
I'm still on 1.82...
i don't know why. from China to help you up.
Users still looking for a way to manually install the market update should checkout this article h t t p://eugeneorourke.com/go/1369. It gives steps on how to update the market through recovery mode that worked well for me.
Is there a way from preventing the market silent/self updating to new version? I kind of prefer the cleaner old version.

Me too. My Market updated and now it's force closing every time I open it or try to update something. Any help?
Running CyanogenMod 7 in a P1000L
go into settings, applications, manage applications, all, market and uninstall updates. as far as preventing it from automatically updating, you'd have to use a program to freeze the market updater app.

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
