Market Issues - Droid X General

Is anyone else having issues with the Market? For the last few days it keeps saying I have updates available for the same 8 apps Angry Birds, Titanium Backup, Evernote, etc. I've updated them and then the next day the same apps have updates available. Today there were additional apps that needed updates along with the same group. Anyone else have this problem?

Wipe data and cache...that may help!
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

I wiped cache, didn't help but did speed up my Market app. I'll wipe data after my phone charges since it just died.
new update, so I decided to try and update individually, after selecting Angry Birds for instance inside it only has options for Open and Uninstall. So it seems internally it knows its up to date but in the list view it doesn't.

What is happening to you is definitely freaky. I would try to wipe the app cache and then use cache cleaner and clear all of the caches. Then i would reboot and see what happens.

Update: deleted cache and data. Deleted backup of Market app in Titanium and deleted data of Market through Titanium also. Restarted phone and now works normal.
Quick note, last night i let the phone's battery drain fully and charged it over night. Turned it on this morning and it went into Recovery. Restarted phone and ot started up normal. There seems to be a gremlin lurking somewhere.

Update again: well thought it was fixed. But happened again, this time had 2 updates and first one was fine but second one which was Sketchbook Express only had the Open and Uninstall option! Maybe I should've just used the update all. Emailed Android and they suggested uninstalling Market updates and it will update back to latest market version in a few days. They said if it happens again to email them again.
Old market works fine for now. Saw Sketchbook had an update and updated it. We'll see how this goes and keep you guys updated. If this keeps up maybe I'll just reset the whole phone and go to CM7.

I am having similar issues. For some reason only paid apps show is the "My Apps" list. After installing and uninstalling a single app all apps show, but only temporarily. This is getting really annoying.
I have also seen that google does know about the problem, but im not sure how that will help lol

Must have something to do with the latest market and handling videos. Well atleast I know I'm not alone now.

Android Market Problems

Whenever I update any app it is causing the market to close. I'll go back to the market and the app I started the download update on will restart the download and finish. Very strange. This just started a few days ago. Any answers would be welcomed.
I have the same problem on stock rooted

its been happening to me too on iced glacier 1.1............
same here on Iced Glacier 1.1.1 sometimes i notice market wont even load i would just stay on a white screen and thats on wifi
Same thing here.. not rooted
i get issues where i cant buy/pay for apps
Please post questions in Q&A section.
It's happening to mine running Ice Glacier 1.1.2. It's been that for a while now.

Sometimes the market will force-close each time I start it forcing me to do some combination of clearing its cache, removing its update, or uninstalling the most recently installed apps. It's probably the least reliable app on my phone at the moment, with the mms app being in second place.
I've also started to have the issue of it crashing while download updates. If I restart it, it continues fine.
I have no way to qualify this, but it feels like the market app is particularly sensitive to network connectivity. Obviously it needs data to function but it doesn't seem to handle connectivity problems gracefully.
I'm still stock and not rooted.
Clear cache on market... That fixed mine.

I have this issue as well (rooted and unrooted). I was reading the google developer blog and many were complaining how this can screw up their payment, or processing of purchased apps. Not sure, but sounded like this was fairly widespread...

You are having the same problems I have. Force close on downloading of updates is very frustrating to say the least.
I am also stock and not rooted.
I have IG 1.1.1 flashed but my problem is it starts the download then freezes. The whole market goes down. If I reset the phone, when its done rebooting it doesn't reload all off my apps that were already saved to the sd card. Any ideas what is wrong or any way to get the lost apps back? I also have titanium but it only reloads them sometimes.

Thought I was alone with this! My market will also FC once I start to update an app, then multiple apps will update that I have flagged for auto-update. It seems my market gets overwhelmed by more than 1 app update running at a time. I just hit FC then re-open it and everything is fine again.
Market 2.2.6 seems a lot more stable for me. I will randomly get download failed messages from it, but it no longer seems to hang or FC anymore.

Downloaded apps not appearing in "my apps"

I've never had issues with this until last night. I went to my apps to see if there were any updates, and only two apps were showing up. I cleared the cache and data under manage applications, but that did nothing.
I ended up restoring a nandroid from right after I rooted. All of my apps were showing again. Then I selected update all and went to bed... when I checked my phone this morning it showed notifications for all the updates, but the market said I only had 4 downloaded apps.
So am I the only one experiencing this? Or did something get updated and I'm just unaware of what is up?

Yea I've had this problem too..I find it easiest downloading by clicking the link for every individual app
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
The first time I tried rebooting and it didn't fix it... but after I restored my old backup and they disappeared again, I rebooted and it has been fine since

New marketplace keeps re-populating updated apps

I was wondering if anyone else had this problem with the new Market. 3.0.27?
When I go to update a few apps that need updating they will update, then an hour later or so they show up again in the list of apps under Marketplace that need updating.
It's like it re-populates itself. I updated Trulia, Chomp, & something else & it shows there is still an update when there actually isn't. Is there anyway to clear this, or is this some type of bug?
I've tried to update Chomp like 5x & it is still the same version & even shows it was updated. All of the sudden it shows up again in the Market as needing updated.
It's like the Market won't clear it as already being updated.
Does the same thing to me. Very annoying.

Haven't tried the info below your post though.
Odd deal though.
Mine stays like that even after I update apps, but goes away after a while.

Have the same problem... not very diggin the new market

I have .27 but it still has the problem of not showing all of my apps in the "my apps" section. I've tried to clear data & cache which did nothing. I never noticed this in the old Market but downgrading doesn't fix it either so i am back on the new 1... any1 know how to fix it?
So there seems to be a bug somewhere, but who knows where. Is there anyway to contact Google or post somewhere about this issue? Since you can't download it from the Marketplace (since it is the Marketplace) where do you post these bugs?
Mine still shows all 3 as updates. Also too i've noticed that automatic updates sometimes unchecks itself. I'll look at the Chomp update & it is greyed out when I actually checked it.
All I know is that it is annoying & needs a fix So if anyone finds one, please let us know.
I actually never had that problem with the last Market so I assume it is the file.
No issues on stock froyo.

Does it with Go Launcher and Go SMS and it's pissing me off
I wonder if the ROM has anything to do with it or the version of the Android OS we are running.
I'm on 2.2.1
ACS 1.2
Genocide 2.0
That's what i'm running on mine.

IDK but I wish Google would fix it. I am running stock & have never rooted my device. I don't think I've seen the unchecking issue but it never has all my apps in the "my apps" section. Even when I did the last Maps update it was in there then I opened the market later & it was not in there. I can go to the app in the Market & on it's page it still shows as installed & set to autoupdate but never stays in the "my apps" section. I can see a few apps that stay in there like they should but most do not.
Thank God for Appbrain though otherwise updating apps or at least checking if apps had updates would be much more difficult
Did it to Facebook with me. That was the only time though.
Mine was doing this. Clearing data and cache from the app settings didn't solve it, but I used Titanium to detach the relevant apps from the market, then reattached with Titanium; it seems to have worked. I'm hoping this is just a temporary glitch that will get resolved.

I wish there was a fix for this now because I noticed that if you have an app that goes thru an update then the auto-update checkbox gets un-checked after you update. I noticed this with Friendcaster & Picasa Tool's latest updates

Can't uninstall/update apps in market

I have a g2 and some apps which have updates such as angry birds or facebook have no update or even uninstall button, just open, can I get some help? Thanks, ill post a picture of what I'm talking about in a second

So are you rooted?
If so, use something like Titanium Backup to wipe market data or do a cache wipe and reboot. That's how most market issues are fixed.
Unless they are pirated, I've noticed on the new market it will pick them up but you cannot manage them.
Apps preinstalled cannot be uninstalled (unless rooted). And the new market sometimes fails to show the update button, and will sometimes show an update even if there is none. Don't worry, it eventually works itself out. Google was supposedly pushing out a better version that is slightly less buggy.

I updated to the newest version manually and that fixed my problem.

My downloaded Google play apps won't show

Did have.the same issue but only lasted a little while until rebooted.
Just wondering, have you tried logging out of your account and re entering it?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Yes, i did login and logout from my account. I did solve my problem already though. apparently, when I played with the market tools in titanium I inadvertently linked several apps to google play that were not supposed to be linked in the first place. I had to go through them and unlink them via titanium and it fixed the problem. I downloaded MARKET FIXER to determine which apps needed to be unlinked.
Hope this thread would be of help to anybody who would experience the same problem.
I do wonder if they're tweaking some settings with the new play market... I did a hard reset (because I froze stock dialer.... Big mistake ;-) ) and since, on usual dpi settings that have always worked before, 200, 240, I'm getting the error my device is not supported... Googled it and there are a lot of new posts about this since the update. Dunno if it's related.
I do have titanium but have never touched the market settings...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
This is an old issue and it is caused by the Gallery and a few other system settings being mistakenly linked to the Google Play market which leads to the removal of the apps in My Apps section.
Indeed the best solution is Market Fixer as the OP has discovered above and the link is below:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kstudio.marketfixer
You usually only need to remove the system app market links to get it to work. This procedure needs to take place after every firmware update too. Before the apps return after using the Market Fixer, you can download a free app and install it from the Market to refresh your apps.
Yes that works perfectly, but you have to know that now your google account is corrupted for life with those system apps liked to it. Now everytime you flash or update a rom, you will have to go through this to get back a functioning market... sucks big time. F***ing titanium backup, and me for being stupid and use it to screw with the market... oh well, I have good health so that is what is important, it's just a phone...
