Can Not Download From The Market

I am successfully running the Magic 5.0.1G rom... and everything was running OK... then yesterday I cannot download from the market.
I shows that "download is starting"... but it never actually downloads....
I tried rebooting, turning wifi on an off.... nothing is working.
I have the app to sd engaged.... but I did not mess with the cache to sd.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks!
Web

Same problem here. I had to flash back JF 1.43 RC9. Any solution would be appreciated.

Same problem here. Same details also. Looking forward to any ideas.
**app to sd not enabled.

Same here 5.0.1g, apps to sd not enabled, tried starting gtalk, cycle wifi, cycle airplane mode, multiple reboots, clearing market cache, everything I found on google. I don't want to go back to JF. Any solutions?

Yeah, boycott the market. We should make our own market!!! Free apps. How dare they decide to cut off the folk who could no longer wait for them to release "buttcake" and downloaded the Magic rom. I thought Google was my Friend. Now I see otherwise. I pay for their open sourced product to find it's nothing of the kind!!! Dirty rotten heathens!!!
or... we can just wait till the cupcake is released or the G2 hits the states. Market should be back up. This could also be a big ol' mistake in which case "Google is my friend, buddy and the best man at my wedding!!!" If not... Start a market and pay developers 88% of the proceeds...

I'm having issues similar to those stated. I noticed this morning that the apps weren't downloading, but after a few minutes they started. Tried a few more ten minutes later and the problem is back again. I'm running 5.01G appstosd
Did reverting back to JF solve the problem for those who did so? If not, could it possibly be a problem with the market itself? Maybe they are updating, and throttling the downloads to reduce the load while doing so? Just throwing the idea out there. I'm rather new to the scene and don't really know if that kind of thing ever happens. All other networking is working fine, and the market got a few apps for me today after it stopped working. Other files download from elsewhere. It sounds like an issue with the service rather than the roms.

Based on a report from BGR it's jus the G branch of the Cupcake builds while the HTC one still has access for now.

This was report to BoyGenius from XDA. Check the Magic/Saphire thread - last couple of pages.

Thanks for posting that.
I'm still keeping the build though. I don't need program updates and when I do I'll just download them off the online webs or download on another g1 and copy to an SD (for free apps) obviously.
Not getting rid of the candy they have in this build just for a market.

Didn't take long to get this problem solved. New builds labeled r2 (fixed market) can be found at Haykuro's google code page
http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/

Sweet. Haykuro is god.

I downloaded it and flashed it and I still can't download apps from the market. I'm using 5.0.1Gr2-appstosd. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this to work?
I wiped the phone before I updated also FYI

IM still having this issue, with the new 5.0.1Gr2

I am still having issues as well. Also, do not know if it's related, but on my t-mobile bill it says £ instead of $ on the "amount due ---"

im using 5.0.2H and ive never had an issue with the market, nor did i have one with 5.0.1H or 5.0

doesn't works

what im wondering is where is everyone getting this info about google blocking 'cupcake' users from the market? where is the official statement? because im using haykuros 5.0.2H and everything works on the market for me

The 5.0.2.H build works fine the issue is only on the Google Builds. I've tested the HTC builds and I can dl from the market with no issues, but once I install the Google one I run into the issue.

I have the same issue with the gr2 build of apps to sd...I used the HTC build prior and market was fine, but everything else was glitchy so I went for the google build...still, this rather sucks..I wanna play my paid apps!

Flashed to the HTC build until problem resolved. Even with no wipe, just a flash, market works fine.

market.google.com updated...

Allows you to manage APP installed via the website and have them pushed to your Android devices. Not sure if anyone has looked at it yet.

Im on Bonsai ROM with Market version 2.2.11 and its not working for me. The website finds my Epic but apps don't get pushed to my phone when I click install. Is there a newer version I need?

I havent I'm not by a computer but I'm interested though....
Is it like the app store on itunes?
I'm tired of updating my phone and not having acess to certain apps
This would take all the pain away!

Worked for me, but I'm on stock.

Wasn't that one of the features of Gingerbread? It thought they mentioned that at the Froyo push last year.

They actually first showed this off last year at the Froyo event.

Getting SERVER NOT FOUND error?

I was able to use this today successfully. I remotely installed 3 apps, with absolutely no problems. It recognized all the programs already on my phone.
I'm on Nebula 1.0.7, so stock is not required

I'm on ViperROM 4.0.2c and am able to use it. The thing I like the most about it is that it has kept track of all the applications I've installed (which isn't the case when I flash my ROM). So I can reinstall the APPs throught he market. (yes the market keeps track of my purchased APPs, just not the rest of them via the phone.
It also makes installing the same APPs to multiple devices at the same time via the same Google account very easy.

I am on Quantom 2.7 and the website just doesn't see my phone at all. Wonderful.

are you guys just going to market.google.com??? I can't get to it from my computers.

Google the term "market"

Thank you.
And for anyone else reading this, the correct website is:
https://market.android.com/

I'm running Nebula and when I go to the web market, all of my apps that I've downloaded are there, but it won't recognize my epic. Anyone else found a fix for this?

Works on the current nightly of Cyanogenmod 6.
Shows the list of currently installed applications, and the instant I told it to add Angry Birds (not that I'm interested) my phone began the download.
Awesome.
Combined with the way all apps reinstall after a new flash, I should not need to use the crappy on-phone application again!

Related news article: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/02/02/google-fixes-its-app-store/

Well, I just flashed to a new ROM and am now once again having trouble with the sync.
My market.android.com list shows like 20+ applications, but Bonsai ROM downloaded 2 and acts like it is done. I'm going to have to go down the list and search for each of them now. Or maybe I'll try the same from market.android.com
EDIT it's working, but the list of installed apps on the phone's Market won't even update...

Time to say "goodbye" to appbrain. Finally.

Oh nice
Thanks for the tip. I was able to use my computer to browse the market and it was able to see my installed apps ok. I am running stock DI18.
Darkk

Says no phone associated with my account even though I can see my market history. I'll chalk it up ito being a new service and not fully up and running yet.

New Android Market Website

So it's finally out. What do you guys think? Is this the end of Appbrain? I loved appbrain cause I can browse the apps on the website and then just click install from there and it will automatically install on the phone. Now this can do it too!
The biggest upside to this? You can install (after you pay) "in-app" purchase app from the website. e.g. you can install the NBA League Pass from the website directly. Any other features I missed?
This is from Google themselves, not me.
https://market.android.com/

Cool. I like it.

I never really got into appbrain, because it still involved that extra step of opening the application itself.. and blah.. I think, I can't even remember. It just seemed tedious at the time to go onto the computer when it was quicker on my phone.
Then when Google does it, I'm all over it. I have been installing random applications just to install them. Why is this so awesome?!

I played with it for a while now and everything seems to be working well. I guess I can save some space by uninstalling appbrain and use this instead.

sweet jesus!

I'm like'n it...good stuff!

The automatic OTA install is working to my N1 and my Galaxy Tab now, it wasn't earlier this morning.
Works well!

With this new website comes another big change that will happen in the 3rd quarter of this year: NO MORE "LITE" version apps.

That's actually a good thing. You download the "free" application, and then if you decide to unlock it you buy the key from within the app rather than a separate unlocker application, or having the market cluttered with 2 separate versions.
Sounds like a plan!
The in-app purchasing as a general concept I'm not a massive fan off as it has the potential to lead to nickle & diming, primarily for games, but if used responsibly it should be good.

Wow, about time. Glad to see it's finally here.

now all they need to do is let you backup your app data. I dont want to lose my angry birds scores everytime i switch roms and forget to back it up with titamium backup

Well, I don't suppose there's a way for Market Enabler to work on the website?
It lists paid apps from all over the world, but it knows your phone's carrier and will prevent installs if your country does not support it..
I guess it's back to Market Enabler on the phone.

Anyone else having trouble actually buying apps from the website? Installing free apps works like a charm, but trying to purchase and install paid apps doesn't work. I press continue and _nothing_ happens.

running CM7 nightlies and the OTA installs are not working...

According to the website, you need to be logged into GTalk, only my GTalk won't log in. GTalk also appears to be missing from the market, so the problem may be on their end...

Doesn't work for me, it's been years and Android Market still doesn't support Google Apps accounts for Checkout. Although I can login, no devices are listed under "my devices" on market.android.com

I'm running CM7 Nightlies as well, I'm a few behind though, and I'm always logged into GTalk and the OTA's are not working for me either.

It's not working here on MM v.20. I've tried installing several apps but nothing happens on the phone end, the GTalk solution they give also doesn't help. Weird thing is they all show up on my app list as completed when none of them have actually installed.

I'm having the same issue. I'm running CM6.1 kangorama's version and the install says it has worked on the website, but nothing changes on the phone itself.
I'm wondering if it has to do with it being a rooted device without a stock rom?

I'm betting that someone is going to have to create a Web App Store Enabler or something along those lines for this to work on rooted phones or phones without stock ROM's.

[Q] New Market and FC

Hello!
New Market on motorola Xoom Wi-fi every time I want to upgrade giving me FC. I don't know how to fix it. Tried to delete upgrade install on the Application but it is upgrading by itself. Tried to clear the cash, clear data.
Nothing helps.
Please, who know how to fix this problem? Looks like new Market doesn't work on Honeycomb.
Guys, help me, please? I really need your advice?
Thank you!

What market version do you have?
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

If you have Documents to Go installed, remove it. It has a problem with the manifest and Dataviz needs to update it, you can use the version from their website in the interim.
Or grab today's free Amazon Apps, Quick Office and Quick Office HD.

Tried everything. Market. 3.1.6, market 3.3.1.1 or something like that, all of them giving me fc.
Guys, please, I need a solution. Can somebody give some advice, please? Or maybe somebody have old mafket app flashable trough cwm? Because google doing nothing for honeycomb.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

The problem is almost certainly related to an installed app, if you don't have Documents to Go installed, started removing apps one at a time until the market begins working properly and report back when you identify the offending app.

I had a thread for the same thing a page or so back.
documents to go didnt seem to cause me much grief (but i removed it anyway), but i did have a problem with Enhanced Email FCing the market (which i also ended up removing on the xoom, working fine on the desire).
noticed my market updated itself to 3.3.1.1 (or similar) the other night too - same problems as the last version.
just waiting for ICS update now and will see if that fixes stuff - I imagine it will and/or devs will update their apps to ICS

Do you have apps that you side loaded that the market reported as not compatible? I get the market FC any time one of my side loaded apps tries to update.

I found that it was a certain alternative market that caused me to "loose" all of my apps... I thought that it was the new market and even went back to the moray 2.2.1 to have the old market.
I figured out it was that other market because I uninstalled it and bingo, I had my apps...
I was pretty stupid and used titanium backup to "force" the market links and ended up with one heck of a messed up android market.... Now I am working through that..

Uninstalled the app called "Download all files" and sims like everything working for now.
Thank you very much!

actually i think i had getjar on there... that's missing from the supermarché now - I wonder if that was the issue
i was also guessing that by the time ICS hits the xoom - and all the devs update their apps for that most of this issue should go away

FWIW, I had the exact same problem I uninstalled Enhanced Email and the problem went away. Too bad, I really like Enhanced Email!

[NEWS] B&N Annoucnes Official Google Play Support

This is a HUGE news in my opinion. Official support for Google Play/Google Apps coming to Nook HD and HD+ soon
Barnes & Noble's press release
http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20130502006907/en/Barnes-Noble-Announces-Google-Play™-NOOK®-HD
Engadget's Hands On video of the new support.
http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/03/...nd-nobles-nook-hd-and-hd-we-go-han/#continued
They say it will be rolling out Over-The-Air and provide access to other Google Apps such as GMail, Maps and Chrome (which is now apparently the new default browser)
I personally can't be more excited for this even though I've been running rooted OS and CM10 SD side by side ever since they became available.
Being able to access Google Play and having official support for many more apps will make HD/HD+ just that much more accessible and usable imo.
Now if only we could the the stock multitasking interface too....
UPDATE: New version number is Version 2.1.0, and you can manually download the update file from Barnes & Noble's website
Just select the Software Update link for the corresponding device and follow the instructions. (You just have to put the update file on the root of your Nook's directory)
I have no idea if it closes any of the rooting exploits, but my impression has been that since we got CWM working, we don't really have to worry about not being able to root now. Still please be cautious if you don't want to risk possibly losing the ability to root/downgrade/run custom ROMs. Just wait it out until the wise wizards of the forum figures out exactly what's going on.

That is fantastic news!! Will go and spread it now! Wow!! :good:

can't install downloaded apk apps...fail once again by B&N

I can confirm that keyboard and launchers downloaded from Play Store works as well as they did with previous "manual" installations.
There are still quite some apps that are just listed as "incompatible" from the Play Store, but having Maps and Chrome running without a fuss is great.
The paper-textured dock has been also been changed in favour of sleeker dark one, (with white icons in place of black ones now) and it seems like "white-on-white" problem is resolved too. (Might have to try out more apps though.)

I can confirm that Universal Root zip still works. Took me a while to straighten out the Play Store though. But it works too, even if you had flashed my gapps zip. May take me a while to test everything to be sure the zips still work.

Just for kicks I unrooted, erased and deregistered before updating to be sure to have absolutley stock setup. And it's working beautifully!
I have installed all my favourite apps with no problem at all.
I seems to me like the general UI is running a bit smoother than before.
And there is widget support in the stock launcher! (Maybe that was tehre before, but I ran ADW Ex right from the start, so I ddn't explore stock that much before.)
Edit: Making one nice discovery after another! Voice search works! And Zinio works as well. I thought maybe they would have found a way to block their competition in the magazine market, but no!

Do you think we will be able to sideload apps and install them through file explorer apps?

Ironically, I bit the bullet and installed the CM 10 Hybrid SD Rom less than 12 hours ago (after using stock root for some time).
Part of me is hoping this configuration has some advantages over the new BN stock but I'd love to hear from people about the advantages/disadvantages of using CM10 vs. the new BN stock so I can make a firm decision about which ROM I'll use daily.
Thanks in advance.

Not right away "out of the box" as it looks. I suspect rooting will be needed to "enable unknown sources", but I'd love to be wrong. Can't test right now though.

okay so I guess this is a pointless update for me then

This is definitely an improvement: I ditched my other launcher now that I can put non-BN apps and widgets on the homescreen. But I still can't install some of my favorite apps, like Yelp. These and others are listed as incompatible.

What version of Android is the latest stock Nook HD+ running? Is it still on ICS?

That is very cool. I'm not near my Nook now but I hope with this new version it will now show apps loaded from play store in the app drawer as well as in the recent apps?

It may be due to missing hardware features. They have added network location provider to this new release so many apps that need location are now compatible but other missing hardware like GPS or camera may still rule out many apps. GPS location can be added via patch, many apps claim to need it.

Yeah, I noticed the new location features in the update and was hoping that it would make apps like Yelp compatible. You mentioned a patch for GPS?

Yes, it is included in leapinlar's location services rev 1 patch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613 it adds android.hardware.location.gps.xml to device hardware features (and with bluetooth gps and Bluetooth GPS app it even works inside apps).
Not sure if Yelp specifically needs GPS though.

So we have "Official" support for installing the kindle app on our nooks now.

I haven't tried new stock yet, but the things that kept me going back to CM10 even after I had stock rooted and Play installed were the ICS/Jellybean recent apps display and the incompatibility of some apps. If they let launchers override the native notification bar, on-screen buttons and recent apps, I'd probably run straight stock.
