[Q] [Update] Problems with market on Eclipse 2.2 - Motorola Droid Bionic

Is anyone having problems updating to the new Play Store 3.4.7 on Eclipse 2.2
Currently I have Eclipse 2.2 flashed on my safe system using safestrap. I can toggle over to my stock ROM on unsafe system and the update works just fine. I cant even purchase apps on the old market version with the Eclipse ROM.
I tried to use TiBu to back up the Play Store on the stock ROM and then restore it on the Eclipse Rom, but it doesn't work.
Also, I tried to clear data on the Market and force the update through Play Music. No Go.
Anyone have a fix or suggestion for this?
Update with answer! Well I figured it out. I added one more step to the post above. After backing up the play store on my unsafe system, I uninstalled the market on my safe system using TiBu and then restored the play store. All is well and I can even purchase apps.
Thanks,

I have market issues as well. Cannot download anything, no connection error.

I just did the following:
Factory wipe, dalvic wipe, cache wipe and flash eclipse 2.2 It didn't work. Should I have followed a different procedure?

i'm having same problem as well..unsafe stock all is good..but onsafe eclipse 2.2 i get error when trying to buy an app..i wiped data dalvik cache and cache and reflashing but doesn't work.. won't update to google play..kinda frustrating..i hope somebody may have some insight into this..

Workaround Market issue
This will get Market to work for a few days, but not a permanent fix.
Settings » applications » manage applications » market » all » 'Force Stop' then 'Clear data' & 'Clear cache' buttons.
REBOOT.
Open Market and do your updates and installs as normal.
If anyone comes up with a fix, please share. If not a shortcut directly to Force Stop and Clear would be nice.

I update to google play but icon never changes to google play icon..I can download free apps just not purchase apps..I get an error every time..I just used the google play site to get the app I wanted then sent to my phone..wish google play app would work tho..

I honestly don't know how I got it. I was running an ics rom before the eclipse rom. I don't know if that would do anything. Probably not. I also installed the titanium theme for eclipse 2.2. Perhaps that will help

I just got a text message from Verizon telling me that the market is being updated to play store.

Unable to download / install SwiftKey

I purchased the full version of SwiftKey and when I try to download it I get the error "download unsuccessful" I have cleared caches, data, installed the latest cyanogen daily. I am at a loss. SwiftKey says to contact Google and I have tried the suggestions on the help forums.

No issues here either, running CM 6.0.2.1

I am running 6.0 final also and I keep getting a "download unsuccessful" error. Seems as though tech support at Swiftkey didnt help much either blaming Google. I am not real happy because I loved Swiftkey. Hopefully this will be resolved.
Check with your bank. I found out from my bank that because it is a international charge they would not clear it.
I bought SwiftKey and it also wouldn't download. I'm stuck with the beta.
Try fixing permissions in rom manager reboot try again if that doesn't work try flashing 9/30 nightly I haven't had any problems with downloading SwiftKey

This just flagged random apps of mine for auto update that I wasn't planning to update.
Like google voice. Beware!
Amazing otherwise!

I actually didn't upgrade market this way but it got updated on it's own but reverted back to original market because it wouldn't let me upgrade or download new apps it would say it download it but it would never install them. So for now I'll be sticking to the old market. In case you want the old market pull it from stock rom or a rom like plainjane and then replace it and delete the market updater this will let you keep the market without it getting updated.

Did you try restarting after installing the new market? I was having trouble with it as well, but after a restart it was able to download and install apps again.

I noticed that too; I think it automatically flags all Google apps for auto-update.
I downloaded the Eris Market Fix from the market and ended up getting the 2.2 market. and check out androidvideo.net on your android. this one of the best sites ive seen
Hey I'm having a problem installing this.
My error message is : "Parse Error, There is a problem parsing the package"
The file name is .apk and it's in the root of the sd card. Any ideas?
Thanks guys.

I'm on xtrRom 4.6. I downloaded the file and it works great! The only problem is that I can't get my downloads to show up when I try to access them in the market. I have already tried a reboot. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks,

I guess that there are no other ideas. Can anyone describe the steps to take in order to get the regular market back?

[Q] SMS Apps not compatible with liberty rom?

So i have looked for handcent sms and go sms in the market and they do not appear...i got a link to the app in the market and on the top there is a bar that says the app is not compatible with your device? Is this a known issue?
I know there's been some market issues with liberty but I've been using go sms with it. I haven't had to download it since its been in my backup but it works fine, i'd assume if you can get the apk and side load it you'd have a work around.

i install it using titanium backup too but when i go to the market i am able to find it and actually just installed the 11/1 update. (Go SMS)
The latest Liberty fixes Market issues supposedly.

yes but you should be backing everything up so i don't see why it matters. backup, wipe, flash, reboot, restore, reboot, and youre right back where you left off.
Edit: I think he has a patch in the thread as well if you really don't want to flash the new ROM, but like i said its pretty quick and painless if you use Titanium

Changed LCD Density back to stock, apps still not showing?

So I wanted to get some updates for my apps so I went back to 213 and I still don't see drop box etc and when I search for apps I have installed currently of says they aren't compatible. What do I need to modify to fix?

Try clearing your play store data.

No dice

I was able to get compatibility back after clearing market data and re flashing gapps. I also found out anything but 160 causes that same problem, but 160 works fine.
Try a reboot? Wipe cache, force close the app, and delete app data for the play store. It's really fickle truthfully. I ended up having to flash mine back to stock and use titanium backup to fix everything. If you have a nandroid backup pre-DPI change that should work as well.
Edit: nevermind! Glad you figured it out!

I just had this problem, but I figured out how to fix it...
1. Go to Settings>Apps>Google Play Store and "uninstall updates" and it will say something about installing the original system app...
2. Open the original play store and accept the terms and conditions. (Apps still not working at this point)
3. Download the latest update from somewhere.
4. Install and done...
Your play store should work properly now...

[Q] Google Play, accounts and time

My Ace is running CM10.1 by Wayland_ACE. I hadn't encountered any issues and I don't think this is ROM related.
Anyway, recently my Google Account randomly removed itself from my device, I readded it and now when I go into Google Play and try to download an application I immediately receive a sever error and cannot download anything. I cleared Google Play's data and uninstalled the updates and cleared Google Play Services' data and rebooted as recommended in another thread. Didn't fix anything.
Then I noticed that the time was off by two minutes, was always correct before. I have the auto-obtain network time and manually selected the timezone (EST).
I fixed the time but Google Play still isn't working properly. It also isn't autoupdating to the latest version which is strange. As far as I am aware it should do that.
Does anyone know how to fix Google Play? (and no, I don't want to use another app store like 1mobile or Aptoide...)
I'll try to update this post with the exact error but it might be awhile. My Ace is freaking out right now with random reboots.
Not certain what happened but now my Ace has become really unstable. Its rebooting after every few minutes.

Its working now... I wiped cache and dalvik cache. Play Store still won't update back to 3.10.1 though. Any ideas for how I can force it to update?
