Market outdated issue - Thinkpad Tablet General

Hello,
I recently rooted my TPT and installed market enabler and was successfully able to change market but today when I went to download an application I got an message saying "client is outdated, market will update automatically shortly " now do I just wait or is this an actual issue because I have never had this happen to me before. I also uninstalled market enabler thinking that was the issue... but it didn't change anything. I would be grateful for any assistance thank you.

I'm pretty sure that it was just market updating. I had the same message and I don't use market enabler.

Yes it just ended up updating... I panicked for no reason in the end lol

How long should this take? I have been getting the out-of-date message for 2 hours.

Have you tried turning it off and turning it back on again.
Another option is going into settings>applications>manage applications> market>clear data.
Try settings>applications>manage applications> google framework services>clear data if that doesn't work.

Thanks gallahad2000, but no joy. Restarted several times, did the clear data you suggested, but still getting the market out-of-date msg.

Download Unsuccessful

My market hasn't been working all day. It started when I tried to install updates on apps. Every app, whether update or new install results in download unsuccessful. Occurs on Wifi or 3G. I've rebooted, cleared market data, uninstalled market updates and cleared market cache.
HELP
Clear "Download Manager"

If you can't see "down load manager", hit menu key, filter, then all.

[Q] Any Vibrant Experts Around?

My Vibrant is having some serious issues. I've only found one other person that seems to have my issues and that thread went out of control so I'm starting another.
Symptom:
Within 5ish (if that) minutes of a factory reset, the market will get stuck on Starting Download... for any application. Nothing fixes it. I can download 10ish applications but that's all.
Attempted Fixes:
Factory Reset
Various ROMs via Odin
Flash JFD ROM with "repartition" option selected, then flash another ROM over that without repartition
Factory Reset and different Gmail account to set up the phone
"Easy Fixes" like logging in to GTalk, resetting Market cache, switching networks and over to wifi in any combination and every other suggestion that doesn't work.
Notes:
Everything was working fine until that OTA update came in and I opted to install it without checking online to see if there were any issues. Of course, the update froze halfway through and I used Odin to install JI6, then all these issues started.
This is my first phone and it used to work perfectly well in any number of locations around where I live. Now it doesn't work anywhere.
I periodically get spammed with a lot of application downloads that I didn't initiate and they all turn up unsuccessful (since the problems started).
I tried using the Appbrain quick web installer feature which may or may not have caused the problem.
I am currently using Bionix 1.8 with VOODOO.
My wife's phone has the same set up and works. I tried her Gmail account on mine after a factory reset and I had the same issues.
Any suggestions?
When you flashed JI6 did you use the pit file?
are you restoring any backups after you flash?
I posted this in another thread. Someone did this with success and it worked for me too. The key thing "AND Uninstall updated"
I have managed to sort this now - here's what I did:
Go into settings - applications - manage applications- scroll down to market & long touch to open. Clear cache AND Uninstall updated. It will ask for confirmation and then uninstall. I then went back to market and Bluetooth file transfer downloaded and installed with no probs. Hope this helps anyone else with same problem.

Also have you ran a "Fix permissions" from RomManager? It seems to help with a lot of these strange errors ....
Sorry for not responding... work is keeping me busy.
Anyway, when I go Manage Applications, select Filter~>All and go down to Market there is nothing to do with Uninstall. I tried long clicking and that did nothing. When I click on Market, the only buttons are Clear Cache, Clear Defaults, and Force Stop. Am I missing something?
To answer other questions, both the JI6 and JFD .tar files I used (found on xda) came with their own .pit files and I did use the respective .pit files when flashing. After the flash, all I do is install Appbrain and start loading my applications again (no other restoration methods). I've run fix_permissions and that didn't help when I ran it though I've only done it once or twice in the whole process.
Note - I have Market 1714.
Cleared the download manager cache?
+1 on Fix Permissions in ROM Manager. This has fixed many market issues.
The TMo Android customer service folk had me try clearing the Download Manager's cache (and I tried again just for laughs) with no results. Tried fix permissions again with no luck. My replacement (refurbished? from TMo) should show up today.
Got the new phone (with JI6 on it and the new market that keeps applications up-to-date), flashed Bionix Fusion 1.1 and things look to be working pretty well. My signal is noticeably better than it was before (it used to be good then got worse for some reason so I guess it's back to what it used to be).
I paid $10 for 7-10 business day shipping or something like that but I got a text about it shipping on the 25th and it got here today (after being back-ordered) so I'm relatively satisfied. Sure would like to know what's wrong with the other phone and how to fix it if need be in the future but I'll just avoid accepting any OTA updates in the future.

Market not working - how do I remove downloaded OTA update?

I have a problem. I can not get Market to work, even with the market enabler and the latest market mod from the NotionInkHacks forum. I had it working first, then did the OTA and it was still working. But then I did a full factory reset to clear out my Adam (something I always do after a few days with new units, so I can remove the traces of experimenting. And now I can't get Market working again! I have done the unbricking update with the recovery image dated the 24. of Jan, and I'm pretty sure that will fix it. The problem is that I can't seem to get rid of the OTA update that's on the unit. I have tried to hard reset it with both the reset in Settings and the one in the flash menu (power on + vol up), and still it's there installing itself. And I can't find it with Sniffer or Root Explorer! Any idea how I can remove this thing, so I can get back the Market access?
I also deleted the recovery.zip on the "internal SD card", and still I get "Your Adam is up to date" when I try to check if I'm back to an earlier image, and I have the same problem with Market. Driving me up the wall here! According to my About Adam the build number is NIP20230111.
I finally solved that. I downloaded the 5. of Feb update, and now I can update to the latest. Still market doesn't work, though. Any help on that would be appreciated! Driving me totally crazy...

Did you try force closing market and clearing data?
Sorry, should have posted that I finally got it. I went to Edenx and tried 3-4 full resets with that, and suddenly it worked. I have no idea how and why, but it's there now. It' very slow, but it's there. My son's Nook Color pops into market and makes searches in seconds, this takes at least half a minute. But I can deal with that. I've got Titanium Backup now, so I won't have to download anything more from the market if I don't need new apps.

apps and new roms

when ever i flash a new rom all the apps that i have installed even ones i uninstalled start to download in the market ?? any idea how to fix this maybe even wipe my maket history beside my paid apps and i just started using lex lite 3 and im getting random reboots
Clear your cache in Koush's bootstrap.
thank u i will try this
that didnt do anything to the market its still trying to download all those apps even though i already ran titanium
Funny, I recently reflashed fission rom and experienced the same thing. I thought about playing with the "detach from market" option in Titanium Backup.
Ultimately I just manually stopped all the downloads and proceeded in setting up my accounts and batch restoring my apps via Titanium.
I think this happens when you first sign into Google after you boot your new rom for the first time. I skip logging into Google, and then it doesn't download all the apps right away. later I set up my google account and then go into the market and reinstall what I want.
as always, don't quote me on this
Hope this helps.

[Q] Market Problems on Flipout

Dears,
I am having trouble installing apps through market and it is really annoying. I have reset the phone already many times.
Actually problem is that when i am installing applications through market, during download/install app will stuck. For my case, any app can stuck and it can stuck in either download or install. I think process tries to restart itself, all these restart are stacked up. I had upto 78 downloads of same apps at one time.
I have reset the phone many times, please has anyone came across this, Any permanent solution is highly appreciated.
There is some data saver setting that will enqueue all downloads. Disable it and it will work fine again.
Regards
Thanks, actually I was surprised that I don't have "Data Manager" option in my phone settings to enable/disable 'data saver'.
Anyways to clean the stuck installs and clear the process, by the way I always use WiFi for downloads ....
