I have tried updating the app in the store multiple times but it just stalls 1MB short of completion. My phone is rooted so if that's the problem let me know but other than that im not sure what's causing the problems.

I don't know exactly when this started happening (sometime in the past week or so), but very often when I want to download an app from the market (new or update), it will hang at "Starting download...," but won't show a % or any x/xxxx downloaded. Just the scrolling diagonal stripes. Sometimes I have to go back to the homescreen and wait, other times I have to just cancel it and try again.
Even after that, sometimes after the download is complete, it gets stuck at "Installing" and I'll have to start over again. Other times I leave it alone, and it actually finishes while still saying "Installing."
I'm running stock RUU 2.27.651.5 rooted, the only "tweak" I've done is removed some apks/odex files like Nascar, Peep, etc. Anyone have a clue as to what's going on?
This happens to mine as well. I have the latest OTA update and no root so you are not alone.
Keep an eye on it...the last time that happened with mine, the market had download problems.
when this has happened to me- (been rooted and non-rooted) I've tried to reboot phone and disable/re-enable mobile network.
Another thing I have noticed is one or twice when it looks like it is stuck, it is really doing something else in the background, too. I was thinking that my email or something else was being sync'ed or seomething..
This hasn't happened for a couple of weeks- at least for me.
Mine does it all the time, especially on wifi.. I just deal with it but it is a pain
I have this problem as well. In addition, the Market takes a VERY long time to load and the Downloads takes even longer. My wife has a Samsung Moment and she has also noticed a Market slow down since upgrading to 2.1.
I thought there wa something wrong with my phone but I guess it's a larger issue. Sure makes it pain to install apps while ROM-hopping.
Hey guys
I seem to have this odd problem. A week or so ago my Official Twitter app had a update so I clicked update as i normally would. But a few hours later I noticed that it STILL said installing. I ended up uninstalling the app in my system setting and nothing changed. Now on the marketplace it always says installing twitter. It getting REALLY old now. Worst of all i cant get twitter back now because it thinks its installing. Any ideas??
Thanks,

It ends up with re-flashing the phone for me. :-D
Sent from my Milestone XT720 using XDA App
I was having a problem installing my apps, a simple reboot seems to help cure the problem temporarily.
However, I'm looking for more of a long term solution, and if I find one, I'll be sure to let you in on it.
I have the same problem. I installed a couple of programs and after uninstalling them, the download section of my market app, shows the 2 apps installing and I have no option of cancelling them or some other way of getting rid of them. Its quite annoying and i dont know what to do.
Any help would be appreciated
Update: After a few days of this problem, I went to download a new app and it just got fixed by itself. Odd cuz Ive downloaded apps during this period and tried other things to fix it, but with no success. Thank god its fixed lol
Had the same issue with a couple of apps, usually this helps:
1. Force close market
2. Clear the market cache
3. Reboot your phone
4. Install the app
FIXED IT! Tried everything and nothing worked. But what did work was finding the app online and manually installing it from the SD card. POW!
I'm trying to play Asphalt 6 but I have to download a 250mb package to play it. Unfortunately the download always stalls out about 25% of the way through and says a problem occurred. Anybody have a solution to this?
edit: Retried the download, it went 100%, and then still said that a problem occurred and wants me to restart the download. Such a hassle for a racing game...
normal for most of gameloft games.
I believe you must keep the screen on while downloading the data.
For me, fails if screen turns off or if I bring up another app
I left it completely alone with the screen on the whole time when it hit 100% and like I said, it still didn't complete successfully. Maybe there is a way to download it on the PC and then transfer it over?
If you have tried multiple attempts than go into your SD card and delete the stuff it downloaded and retry, you might have corrupted the data from your first attempt when you only got 25%. Also yes with all Gameloft games there is the inherent problem that You Have to keep your screen on or else it disconnects for some screwy reason.

Same problems, Someone had a solution?
Okay, so I recently brought this tablet only last week and up until a week it randomly started freezing on different apps and force closing them! So I ended up checking to see if it was a software bug and checked if the tablet needed an update but no luck there as the tablet kept giving me an error unable to download latest update for no reason at all! So I decided to use sammobile which I have used before in the past for my Samsung s6 so I know how it works and I found the latest update for my tablet on o2 as it's locked to o2 and I realised my tablet was on an older firmware so I downloaded and flashed the new firmware. Once it was done it loaded up as normal I signed in to all my apps and for a couple of hours it was fine until I suddenly placed it down to charge and it randomly rebooted for no reason so I picked it up to check it and now sometimes when I open up Facebook or app store or anything really sometimes they work and sometimes they say they have stopped! For example "unfortunately Google play store has stopped" and once one of them says it's stopped the rest stasrt randomly popping up saying they have stopped and I can't literally touch the tablet because it keeps popping up so I have to reboot the tablet! I have tried factory resetting with no luck it works for a while after resetting but starts again! PLEASE HELP! I ONLY RECNTLY BROUGHT THIS NEW!!! SO SHOULDNT HAVE ISSUES!

Maybe a FullWipe could help and re-installing the original Samsung Rom. So you could try to flash the TWRP-Recovery from where you can go ahead:

Thanks every thing is sorted now apart from I get an error when checking for updates it tells me there is a network or server error? I have tried factory resetting and wiping again but can't sort it!
Never experienced this. Sorry

Yes I have my sim card inside
Try your updates without inserted SIM.
downloads takes a really long time to start, say, I try to download or update an app on google play, it says downloading and just stays like that for a long time, some times it does start the download after a while, the usual clean data/cache of google play doesn't work, sometimes normal downloads are affected, I faced this issue after a few days of buying the phone and only a factory reset solved it, my phone had an issue and it was replaced by a new one, after a few days of getting it I got this issue again so I can't be the only one
any of you got the same problem?
It's probably related to your internet connection.

Unlikely, i'm only facing the issue on this phone, and normal downloads work fine most times, only google play is always broken, and it works after a factory reset
I have the same problem, even after formatting the phone it persists, twitter media, google play downloads and even the system update do not start or take too long to load. Do you know any way to resolve this?
