Amazon Apps Problem

I downloaded WeatherBug Elite when it was free and it will work for 1 or 2 times and then give me the error:
"unknown error. Please download the app again"

Is anybody else experiencing this problem?

Have you done what it says? I had that popup after uninstalling weatherbug free. I reinstalled and have no issues.

Unfortunately I have done it multiple times and continue to have the issue.

Read the reviews. Everyone said it sucks. Granted most of those people dont know how to operate a phone. I installed ran fine, just drained my battery in like 2 hours, with the status bar temp thing, so its gone now.

That's why I don't allow programs to run in the background and give me "updates". If I want to see the weather I'll pull up the program.

I pulled a noob and just created my own thread about the same problem... oops!
I've been having the same problem, it also happens with Shazaam. I have to delete and reinstall both every time I reboot the phone.

Talk about pulling a noob, I responded to your post not realizing you asked for it to be deleted! Here was my response to your post:
I also have this issue with both WeatherBug Elite and Shazam Encore. I actually uninstalled Shazam (at the time I noticed it) because I installed SoundHound Infinity.
However, I just manually rebooted my phone and, yes, my WeatherBug Elite came back with the error (after re-installing and setting it up).
I tested my other Amazon apps (Airport Mania: First Flight, Angry Birds Rio, Angry Birds Seasons, Diner Dash 2, Doodle Jump, Flight Control, Fruit Ninja, SoundHound Infinity, and Talking Tom Cat) and it's only the WeatherBug Elite and Shazam Encore.
Something is going on with the rebooting for just those two apps. I can't believe it's an Amazon specific thing.
I'm running a Droid X with Liberty 1.5 ROM.

Hmm rebooted and got the same issue... interesting. Ill try deleting app data and using TiBackup the next time after that.
In Amazon app store you can send issues to the developers.. i sent them this issue. Hopefully more users do the same and we get an update.

What was weird is that it alerted in the taskbar just fine.

Doing a little research with a few people here (with Droid X's) is that it only happens on my phone.
The difference between mine and the others is that I'm running a custom ROM (Liberty 1.5).
It works fine for my Droid X friends that 1) is stock and 2) rooted, but stock ROM.
So, for me, it looks like there is something with the app and the fact that I'm running a custom ROM.

I too experienced fc on weather bug and shazam on Phoenix Ultimate and current rom Unleashed. May be it's an issue with the app itself. Other than those 2 apps, all works without any issues.

I think it's an app problem... All my other free paid apps work fine.
I just deleted it and got the weather channel....

I was having an issue where Weatherbug Elite would say I had to enable one of the location services (GPS or Network location) even though I leave network locating on. I tried clearing the app cache by going to menu>settings>applications>manage applications, hit the ALL tab at the top, go down to Weatherbug Elite and hit Clear Data. This cleared up my problem. Maybe it'll help yours.

I have the same problem. Everything else works fine but this thing is the Devil. I cannot get it to work on my EVO. I have tried everything. I mean everything and now I'm more confused then an Amish Electrician.

Market doesn't show "My Apps"

So today the Android Market stop showing the My Apps page for me. Just a grey screen. I have tried everything short of wiping the device. Any ideas?

So I finally tried wiping the device twice and the My Apps page will show until the latest version of Market automatically installs and then grey screen again...

i have the same issue. D2G

Which ROM do you have?
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App

btw, why doesn't our market have "update all" like on HTC phones?

Same annoying bug. Tried EVERYTHING (including a wipe, clearing market data, force stopping, uninstalling updates, clear data on google framework. Sent a support ticket in to google, no news yet... Looks like it isn't authenticating me.

are you running stock ROM?

Do you have more than one Google account on the phone?

Mine does if I have more than one update - as the market always has had since Froyo. (Unless one of the updates has changed permissions - those you must approve one by one.)

Stock rom, still nothing from google. Seems like the server flakes out when trying to verify my device. No fancy hacks really. Wish I knew why. Tried everything I can think of so far. Even did a wipe and no go. Irritating to say the least.

Same boat here. Stock rooted, all bloat installed. Only mods are the atrix camera and modified local hosts file. I even reverted the local hosts file but got nowhere. The only other market I have is amazon and it does not matter if it is installed or not. It also does not matter which version of the market I have installed.
Sent from my DROID3 using Tapatalk

Just noticed the same problem here
I tried installing the camera app from the leaked version but it didn't go through, so when I renamed the original stock camera app back I noticed it stopped working.
Currently I have the my apps screen spinning.
I've got an XT860.

Same problem here
Same problem here. Stock, rooted. My Apps has had a blank screen for days. Cleared Market data and cache. No help.
I don't know who to even contact for support. Any thoughts?

Have any of you tried this:
settings->applications->manage applications
Find "Market" and tap it
If there is one, tap the button at the top "Uninstall updates"
Does that fix this problem?

Safebloat the culprit??
Same issue here! Just started today, the same day i installed safebloat!
Are any of you guys running safebloat? Did this bug appear right after switching from the bootstrap to the safebloat?

Not running safebloat. Currently nothing frozen or removed.

I found that if you take out your SD and clean market/storage service fixes. Bad news is when you put back SD, it breaks again.

I just checked mine, all's good. There's got to be a common factor here... just needs to be found

Just a thought.
Make sure everything in your google account page is set to sync.
Settings->accounts-> you gmail account.
Try the online market. Sign in and see if your apps show up there. If it does, would say it something on phone, if not something with the account.
Hope it helps

I have 2 Accounts ... one account shows the apps ... the other jumps to a screen where i can select Apps or Games ... pressing one of these buttons brings me back to a new instance of a market ... not displaying the apps or games.
Strange ... have newest version of market ... i can install new apps on this account - but something very wrong here ... 8(

[Q] Google play music

So I made a booboo... I tried to set up a subscription using "bill to account" while connected to WiFi. Of course it errors out but unlike buying an app in the play store this one keeps the error. It will only give me debit or credit option with a message at the top pretty much saying billing to the account was not allowed. I've tried uninstalling the app and wiping cache but when reinstalling the app it gives same code. Any help would be great...
When I set up a new gmail account the option is there but not with current one. Is there a way to wipe all saved settings from her gmail account. Maybe that might help.
Stupid stupid stupid Google. For anyone else. If you want Google play all access don't try to add it to your account while connected to WiFi

Try clearing the cache or even data for the play store.

Stupid as it is, that definitely doesn't always clear relevant settings. I have no idea why (other than sloppy uninstallation routines), but it really doesn't. Has billing to your account worked elsewhere recently/how long has it been since this started? It might be a server-side issue.

I've been able to apply this setting on several phones. Before and after. 2 just today. But with the others it was done through sprints network not WiFi. This was done through WiFi and got stuck. Now I can't get it to reset so I can setting up the subscription properly. I got in contact with Google and all they can tell me is if I'm trying to apply something to a bill I have to use the carrier data not WiFi. And if I accidentally use WiFi and it fails to just back out, disconnect WiFi and enable carrier data and retry. But Google play music is the only service outside of the play store that uses these same methods but can not be undone as instructed. I told them that and I have not gotten a response yet and it's been several days.

Google Play Store problem?

I have a Sprint HTC One, I'm running it rooted and with a custom rom. It used to work fine until about 5-6 days ago my Google Play Store App would not display any apps at all. I would go in and everything would be blank. I've Factory reset phone, wiped phone, I've tried 3 different ROMS and am having the same problem with all 3 (Rage, DigitalKarmaZen, and Stock+Goodies) With Rage I would get just a blank store, Zen and Stock the store immediately closes. I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find a fix. I'm really hoping I can find a fix so I can get the store working again. My phone is S-ON for what that's worth, I don't quite know the difference or if it matters

I'm using TWRP I go into Wipe and go to Advanced and check everything except the last option which says something about USB which I wasn't sure what that was. So I think I'm wiping it properly. I'm not 100% on that though

Hmm. While this isn't the source of your problem, why would you do that? A wipe of cache, dalvik and /system is all you need, I believe.
The basic wipe in TWRP is enough, and all I ever used as a flashaholic.

I tried that at first without the advanced wipe but it didn't work so I figured I'd just try to wipe everything and see if it helped lol

OK. So lemme get this straight. You downloaded a (sense) ROM. You did a full wipe. You flashed it. You booted. You set everything up the way HTC/Google told you to. Then, Play Store wouldn't work?

Correct. It was not instant though. Google Play had been working for a couple weeks and then recently it stopped working.

Looks like the Play Store has me marked as a different country or something?
I did a wipe and reinstalled Rage (The only one I could get to show Google Play store at all), opening up Play Store still no apps showing, but I can search for apps as long as I type exactly what it's called (IE: I can search for facebook but I have to type "Face" and click on the facebook icon once it pops up, otherwise it doesn't allow me to search for apps. And when I click on the app it says "This item isn't available in your country"
I'll try to do some research with this new info but if anyone has any idea on it, some advise would be greatly appreciated
Also I created a brand new GMail account thinking it might have been something to do with my GMail account I was using or something.

Play Store Error

I have searched and called high and low all over Google and talked to reps. Can't seem to kick this Error Code 403. It is only the paid apps that won't download. Tried all sorts of methods of clearing cache to play store, Google services, Google framework, Uninstall updates, Factory resets, Removing accounts and re adding. Clearing cache in recovery. All with restarting before attempting a redownload on both WiFi and mobile networks. Please someone help. Out of the box it does this to me and it sucks.

Had very similar happen with my Mega right out of the box. Not even the techs coukd figure it out.
I went into app manager and force closed app first, then cleared its data and cache.
Go back out and started up play store like normal. Cant remember if I got error first time, but okayed it and started it again. Then it loaded in and havent had issue since

Update the latest version of play store.

Did you have multiple Google accounts on your last phone? Make sure you are downloading the app with the same account that you originally made the purchase with. I had multiple accounts on my S3, then when I got my S5 I only put one of the accounts back on and was getting this error for a few apps even though GPlay said "purchased". You might also want to check that the date and time on the phone are correct.

You were absolutely correct. For some reason some of my purchased apps were showing on the wrong account under the all section. It went away after wiping and being careful which account I downloaded from. Thanks for the help guys.

Just use only one account in play store. don't do multiple.
