As the title says, in-app purchases don't seem to work. I'm running the latest update, rooted if that matters. I checked 3 different games, and no love at all. My desire z, on the same networks, has the in-app purchase options. I have even tried connecting using my dz as a wifi hotspot, nothing. When i try to get the full version of GOF2, it just sends me to a useless help page that says i need to have myapps 5.0.12, which i do, and a broken link to instructions on updating the market.
Tl;dr
Can't buy stuff on tab, can on phone. Same networks. All up to date. Any ideas?

had the same issue.... Did you factory reset it yet.... Thats what i had to do... Luckily i did it the first day i had it...... Solves a lot of market issues anyway
Was hoping not to have to. Thank god for titanium backup.

Sorry for the double post. Did a full wipe, reinstalled GOF, re-downloades SD content, still no love as far as getting the full game is concerned. DD:FW also still has no in-game purchase options. Any ideas, anyone? I'd love to support the devs, but android isn't letting me do that. Not a good look, android. Why can my phone on 2.2 do something that my tab on3.0 can't?

Updated sucessfully to Froyo! Everything runs great.... Except that I can't connect to the market.
I get a time out error/can't connect. Gmail and all other apps have no issues.
I have tried this solution:
http://www.droid-life.com/2010/06/12/tip-market-app-issue-in-froyo/
and, this solution:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/team-chaos/49974-market-update-fix-froyo-leaked-version-2-a.html
without success. The second one caused a boot loop and I had to re-flash .604 via SBF/RSD.
Anyone have any suggestions or a fix for the DroidX?
Both of those links were for the droid. Im have the same issue though.

I was aware that they were for the Droid... I was just hoping that they would work for the DX.... although after looking at the build.prop files I now realize that was a REALLY STUPID NOOB error.
I guess I was hoping that the .zip's contained some code that would change a setting and not RR the whole file.
If someone knows what setting needs to be changed please let me know. For now, I'll have to go back to 2.1 if I can't get the market.
I don't think its an X on Froyo issue, Markets not working on my EVO and X
Google server error?
Other Android users(non-Droid X Froyo users) have reported the same issue in another forum. Seems to be a "Google side" error. Probably just maintenance because of all the Froyo releases this month.

Cleared cache in Market all is good
I was having the same issue yesterday, but tried it today and all works again. Must have been a Google problem.
Good info bro! I cleared the market data and all fine now. Thanks

How do you clear the market cache? I can't seem to find it.
Worked perfect with root explorer. Thx

Market didn't work at first, then it did but with weird apps i never heard of in the Top Paid, then a few hours later almost all my previously installed apps showed up, then the market seemed normal expect for like 10 apps that i can live without for now wont show up.
It was a market issue. Market works great now!

Replaced my Droid before and had to download apps again from scratch and everything, redo all my settings. But when I activated my Xoom, it downloaded all the apps on my phone to it, even copied over things like my browser history and my saved wifi passwords. (Kinda creepy actually but it was really convenient, so I give Goog as pass on this.)

I had no idea that this would happen, but after just exchanging my Xoom at BestBuy for a new one, I found the following after it ran through a google sync process:
All my apps are installed
WiFi settings / networks were maintained
Still looking around to see what else transfered to this unit, but given that I didnt expect that anything would, im pretty impressed. I dont recall ever telling the 1st device to do such things or initiated any backups.
that didn't happen for me, but i wish it did! how can I re-sync it now?

I think this has something to do with 3rd party customizations on the Droids and HTC handsets. I know when I flash a Sense ROM on my Evo 4G it does not automatically restore my apps. But if I flash an AOSP ROM, they do. Xoom's Gingerbread is basically AOSP, just a tablet version.
My Droid touchscreen is broken and consequently has been wiped a few times recently and I have noticed the recent improvements. I loved it when I turned the WIFI on my Xoom at home it automatically had the settings.

Must admit my nexus one has been doing that since I got it - i.e. when flashing a new ROM (which is all we do on nexus's ) Google sync would download my wifi settings including passwords. Very useful, but not very new. Maybe it was a Droid limitation.
I think tha'ts an AOSP thing. I flashed my Evo to CM7 and the same happened (and yes the wifi thing was pretty creepy lol)
How do I turn on the Google Backup for Android? Is it just from Google Sync?

Very BIG help though I have to admit....
That's one of my favorite things about Android. When I upgraded from the G1 to the Nexus One it did that. And again when I went from the Nexus One to my current G2. It's definitely something stock Android features. I remember I was surprised the first time it happened. And the wifi setting restore is awesome.

Home screen customization settings aren't backed up
Google's Backup remembers a lot of settings, but it never backs up the Home screen settings.
It takes awhile to add all my shortcuts and widgets to the five home screens, so I wish Google could remember those, as well.
Hope it's included in the next batch of fixes.
my droid x does the same thing when i flash new roms. it has nothing to do with the xoom
So Google has the wifi passwords of everyone using Android 2.2+ who turns this service on? Seriously?
What about RADIUS? Are they storing per-user authentication tokens too?

Is this tread comparing the Xoom to Droid phones or Android phones? If its about any Android then the title really needs to be changed.
Droid is Verizon's Android phones. Why is that so hard for people to understand?

Lol... yeah when you first setup your phone it asks you if you'd like those things backed up on the google cloud... the cloud is kinda what google was known for. Didn't you know? Lol

Not sure why that should seem so alarming. If you use the Google device restore option the you already have an account with Google. Google therefore has your account password. Shock horror! If like me you also use Google checkout then Google also has your credit card number. Wifi is the last of our worries .

I was specifically referring to different backup/restore behaior between my Droid 1 and the Xoom. Restored Droid 1s do not seem to restore information to this extent.

Hey Everyone,
I haven't seen anything on the Epic forums about this yet... so here is my piece.
I got the Amazon app store the other day, and I'm pretty impressed. The most impressive feature, to me, isn't the free app a day... it is the fact that it remembers your purchases/downloads. I've wiped my phone yesterday to start from scratch, and as soon as I reinstalled the Amazon App Store, it asked me if I wanted to view my purchased apps. I clicked each one, they downloaded and installed.
The part I don't get, is why can't the Android Market do the same thing? You are required to put in a user/pass (just like amazon app store)... so what prevents them from at least remembering what apps you've downloaded and provide the links to re-download them? I've used Titanium Backup to back up and restore, but I'm not convinced that it doesn't create problems (phone runs much smoother and with less problems when I don't use Titanium Backup to restore).
I know this was long, and you've probably lost interest already... but if anyone has any info or knowledge on the subject, please chime in!
That is all.
Actually my nexus one does auto restore from android market, so it might be a feature in gingerbread.

Ok, maybe I need to clarify a bit...
I haven't "purchased" any apps from the Android Market or the Amazon App Store. I've downloaded numerous free apps.
I would imagine paid apps get re-linked... but what about the free apps you've purchased?
I've been playing around with ROMS... so after every wipe, I go in to the market... and nothing is there.
If this is a feature in Gingerbread, it will be awesome. I would never worry or hesitate to wipe my phone if I had an issue. It isn't downloading the apps that bother me, it's searching for each one individually.
For some reason the epic doesnt have the back up data thing that aosp phones do.
When you sign in, it automatically redownloads and installs everyapp you had installed.
Also, on market.android.com you can see everything youve downloaded and install it by hand.
I agree that its stupid the epic is missing that feature. My hero running cm6 has it

Wow, never knew about this. So if I wipe my phone, I can log into market.android.com and it will redownload all of my apps for me? As nice as it would be to have it all on the device, logging in to the website isn't bad at all!
A lot of the reviews of the Amazon Appstore never seem to mention what I personally think is a killer feature: sorting and filtering.
At any step of the way, you can choose to only view 3+/4+/5+ star apps, among other options. As soon as I heard about the new store, before it even came out, I had high hopes for sorting, knowing it's one of the great features of Amazon.com.
Google tends to shun sorting/filtering in favor of typed search queries. You can see this in the almost religious devotion to search in gmail, where sorting by anything but date is impossible without using a third party client--and this limitation is vehemently defended by Gmail supporters.
In this regard, I think Amazon will remain on top. I just don't see Google backpeddling on this philosophy, and the Android Market will remain dominated by algorithms and search queries.

A little off topic but Sense 2.0 ROMS do that also. I've been running Myn's and Mik's Desire Z ports on my Evo and whenever you log back in with your Gmail account all of your apps, paid and free, automatically start downloading to the phone. Pretty neat feature.
Yep, got a Wifi Xoom today, and sure enough about 90% of my installed apps came over...all of my purchased apps are available for redownload.
Same thing happened when I switched from HeroC to Epic.
This re-download was a new feature of 2.2, and you have to have 2.2 and be going to 2.2+ to restore.
ok for a week now the market refuses to give me any search results for even the most basic apps; Gun Bros, Dolphin, or Dolphin Browser, or nearly anything.
tonight not even aptoid will show up.
has google completely crippled the market for tablets?
anyone been having market problems? or know of a fix?
seems pretty wierd that it was working and now it isnt.
3 different roms and all the same
Search for any thing... it shows nothing.
Not even appbrain
Seriously... what the heck

ok well i give up i have done everything i can possibly think of including going back to stock.
so i submitted a ticket to the market support team and we will see how far it goes.
I have rooted my kindle fire and have played with a few roms. I hate the little app sizes on the large screen. I use Miui on my G2x and love it for its simplicity customization.
Miui does not work on my Fire, as I get repeated Android, not app., fc's. Bummer. I can't figure out how to stop this. I have wiped cashes and re-flashed three times.
Also is the KF, not Rom Manager friendly? No KF device choice?
Finally, does anyone have an ROM suggestions? Has anyone in the know compiled one yet?
I am going to flash the ICS Beta tonight. Happy to work with it, as is seems Verizon chose to not let people actually use demos in their sales outlets. AHoles!!!!!!! Why? Buy to test? Idiots. I will never use Verizon again.
Thanks for any help in advance.
rom manager is not kf friendly, yet!
make sure u wipe data and system.
