[Q] Help - Market hanging in 'starting download' status

Before we start... yes, I have searched the forums and thats why I've started this thread.
Setup: CWM, VEGAn 5.1, Titanium Backup and Root Explorer
EVERYTHING is working except for this...
I have run the market fix step by step (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845175) and have access to the full market. I can even get all the way to initiating the download of the app. However, when the download starts, it just hangs in 'starting download...' and does nothing. It doesnt download or install, just hangs.
This seems to be a known issue with phones with no answer...

I have run multiple reboots in combination with data/cache wipes using app manager and CWM. I'm sure that I'm missing something but I have no clue what it is. Help is greatly appreciated?

Just had it happen on my phone. I fixed it by going into applications and clearing the data from google services framework. Then reboot...
Mine does this if I try to use it from work. The firewall allows normal web, and transparently proxies FTP so I'd think it would work, but it doesn't.
sign into google talk and all should be well... google's market depends on gtalk service - signing into gtalk should do it for you.

Thanks for the heads up. You are right that it is dependent on GTalk, but I think I've stumbled across the main issue. When I connect to someone's else's wifi (couple of people in my apt complex have left their routers unprotected), I don't have any issues connecting to gtalk or market. So obviously, my gtab is having an issue with the connection through my network/firewall/<insert idea>, I'm assuming.
Are there any known network/firewall issues with connecting to gtalk or the market?
I'm running TnT Lite 3.1 and finally got all the apps to load up on market using the "market fix" that you tried as well, but am stuck on "starting download" as you are. Although it's possible that it has something to do with the router, I turned the firewall on my router completely off and still hangs. I wish we could figure this one out.
Just know you are not alone.

I don't know if this will help but I have seen that a couple times and have found that if I tap on the app that is stuck it will go back to the menu asking if you want to install like you would see when you first tried it. Say ok, it will start to download again. Seems most times it will then download.
I have in the past had apps just stay stuck. Only thing that I could ever do to fix that was to clear the data from the Google services framework, and reboot. Kind of like doing the market fix again.
Try clearing cache for the downloader. It could be there is a bad file "stuck" there that it is trying to resume...
It's even possible that there is a zero byte file there with perms wrong...happened to me once after switching ROMs
How do you sign into gtalk? Is it already installed in TnT by default? I don't see an icon for it.
Are you running a custom rom or stock. Stock has no Google Apps

market, like any other google app (including talk), depends on GoogleServicesFramework

I'm running TnT Lite, version 3.1 I believe.
I can obviously navigate to the main page google.com/talk, but don't see a link there to install for android/gtab. If my market worked I could probably install from there, but that's the whole reason I'm messing around with talk. Still can't get my market to install anything, despite market fix, clear this, clear that, etc.
You can reinstall TnT rom without wiping data/cache. I would wipe cache. The gTalk app (Talk) should have installed with TnT lite. This will reinstall everything in the rom wothout wiping your data. You may still have to wipe data/cache but you can try it in steps

Ok I found talk and cannot login. Says "could not connect to server. Will retry shortly." I confirmed my internet is working as I can connect with the browser. I can also still connect to Market, find apps, but cannot get them to download. I've cleared the data in Google services framework and rebooted several times with no solution. ARGHH!!

Sorry if you have already done this but....I would backup my apps and THEIR data with titanium backup and do a complete reinstall. Wipe data/ factory reset and then install the rom again. Restore your apps and their date with Titanium. Don't restore system data with Titanium.

Ok will try that and get back to you. I don't really have to backup anything, will just do a wipe and reinstall. Thanks for your help.
Well chit. I downloaded the new TnT 4.1 and figured I'd give that a try.
Restarted w/ clockworkmod .08, cleared cache, cleared data, then installed TnT.
After booting back up some of the buttons weren't working, couldn't type in my wireless password, it would keep jumping to the home screen, then I couldn't shut down, power button would not turn the damn thing off.
Copied the TnT 3.1 update.zip back to the sdcard. Went into settings and did a data reset/wipe and finally it shut down.
So I restarted with clockwork mod again and wiped cache and data reset, loaded TnT 3.1 and let it boot up.
Was able to enter wireless password and get that going and confirmed the internet was working. Then went to market and or course it was not working. So did market fix, after installing titanium backup. Had to reboot a few times after force stopping google services and market, and wiping cache/data (from within settings) each time and finally all the apps showed up in market.
However, still unable to get anything to install.
Tried to login to google talk with same result.
I'm now thinking it must be something with my firewall as the first user mentioned. Going to try it on another connection and let you guys know.
I can confirm that it is something to do with my firewall. Finally tried market on another connection and it downloaded right away. Now I have to get verizon to give me a new router. DOH!
EDIT Now I can download from market just fine from my original location. It seems that once I downloaded the first time from a different location, now it is all working.
Anyone have apps that download and not install? I've been having this problem, before my memory even got low for apps so I wiped everything and reinstalled my apps and had less then half a gb of apps.
Things seemed good but today it started happening again, apps will hang in downloading or will download and not install.

[Q] Market issues Not able to update or download

I am not able to update any apps or download any new apps. This is happening on both my phone and my GTab. I have tried everything from reinstalling the ROM on my tablet to wipe data and restarted the services. Is anyone-else having this issue?
Would help to know what rom. Did you try clearing data from market app?

not sure that this is a ROM issue. As i have been able to use the ROM on my phone which is GR-12. But also because I am having the exact same issue on my Viewsonic GTablet running Vegan-Tab GingerEdition.
NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED BUT IT WORKING NOW

[SOLVED] Problems with Google Play 3.5.15

So, recently I noticed that my Market (or Google Play, whatever you want to call it...) got updated to version 3.5.15. Since then, I'm not able to download some free apps like the newest Angry Birds (space) for example. It keeps saying that there is some kind of purchasing problem even though the app is free? This also happens with a few other apps...
The strangest thing is that I can download some other apps like Coin Dozer with the newest version, and I can't even update every app. I mean, I can update some of them, but I can't update Superuser for some reason...
I'm using the latest Temasek's KANG with the latest kernel from vadonka. (HOC LITE OTF 48MB). And I was wondering if this problem is related to the market version.
EDIT: So, I figured that I can only download apps from the Play Store I previously downloaded before. With other words, apps I once installed but then removed. (like Coin Dozer).
Thx for taking your time!
UPDATE 1:
So, after messing around a bit I finally managed to solve this problem. First I deleted all the updates and installed the market apk 3.4.4. Afterwards I made sure that the apk wouldn't update itself again with the help from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431341
Now I got a functional Market again. It's not the latest, but at least it's working normally again. I know it didn't really solve the problem with Market 3.5.15, which is a pity because I kinda liked the new updates. But, Hey, you win something and you lose something.
UPDATE 2:
Finally, after the help from UnityCake (Thanks bro! ) , I managed to solve this problem and now I've got Market 3.5.15 working again! .
Thanks you guys for your help!
I really appreciated it!
I have the same configuration and all works fine. Try to reinstall the rom
or you could try clearing your market cache if you haven't already, failing that boot into recovery and wipe cache & dalvik there. or.. uninstall the market updates, and let it update again later =)

Do you also have Play Store 3.5.15? And it works fine on your phone?

Hmmm... I already tried wiping cache and fixing the permissions. I'm pretty sure the problem is related to this specific version because previous versions were working fine for me. But I will try it, thanks for the tips!
EDIT: I tried wiping the cache of the market application and the problem still persists. Also, I deleted the updates and let the Market app update itself again to 3.5.15 and the problem still isn't gone. I'm pretty sure the problem is related to this Play Store version.
I had a big bug with latest version a couple of days ago, I couldn't instal anything and all installed apps vanished from market menu.
I erased my Google account from the phone and set it again and all was ok then.
Yes it's the same version

So I suppose you need to erase your Google account with the 'accounts & synchronization' option in settings. However when I try to do that, it says I only can delete my account by doing a factory reset in the 'Privacy' option. My question is, isn't there an easier way to delete my Google account, without losing all my data?
Maybe try to re-install/flash Google Play Store. We have the same ROM and KERNEL, but, I don't have any problem with the latest Market. Hope it helps.

Hmmm.... Okay, then I will factory reset my phone and reflash everything and see if that works... I can always restore my apps with Titanium Backup, so it's not a real big problem anyways.
UPDATE: So after a factory reset and a total reflash, Play Store 3.5.15 still doesn't work . It asked for permission when I opened the app for the first time and then it worked for a short time. Afterwards it asked again for the same permission and I accepted again and now I have the same problem as before. I'm clueless right now, any idea guys?
weird.. if you did a factory reset and reflashed it, the issue must be fixed. maybe its a rom issue or kernel?

Unlikely, I mean, you've got the same combination as me, like many others and it works fine on your phone and on the phones of everyone else. I really don't know what the problem is . Anyway I managed to fix this problem (sort of) so I got a decent market again .

Not completely, I reverted back to market 3.4.4 and made sure it wouldn't update itself anymore. So, I didn't solve the problem with Market 3.5.15, but I got at least a functional Market again.

I had this same issue. The quickest way to fix Market 3.5.15 is to:
1. Erase data for google play and Google Services Provider
2. Enter Recovery --> Advanced --> Fix Permissions
So now I can download apps on 3.5.15 without downgrading
