[Q] Paid app stuck forever - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I purchased Dungeon defenders HD on my atrix, and sent it to my ATT bill. I got an email confirming the purchase went through seconds later. 30 hours later the app is still "authorizing download" wtf. I left it on all of last night but it didn't download.
Help?
-----------------------------------------------
UPDATE:
OK guys, now I really need help! qq
I cancelled the download, but fortunately the market knew I had purchased it, so I still have the option to redownload. I did all the crazy troubleshooting, killing the market, airplane mode on/off, signing in and out of google talk, and THEN I tried to download it again...
It's still authorizing.... WTF

Free mobile data ?

Hello forum. I didnt knew what just happened and where to post it so i wanted to share it here !
As a first, i live in germany and use E-plus as my phine carrier. We got a thingie also, 0.facebook.com . It is free for us, and we can use it even when having no money on outlr phone. So for a couple if days in doing so, having 0.03 euros on my conto. Today, when i was sitting home and playing a game on my phone, the browser with facebook open in the background, i suddenly got a gtalk message, and then the whole internet connected ! I chatted and browsed a bit, but the my dad called me and i turned off mobile data after the call because i had to go out. When returning and turning it back on, i couldnt connect to anything besides 0.facebook.com again. After trying random APN's and proxies, i returned to tue standart eplus one and after heading to the site, i got a message again ! And the whole internet ! Im using it for a bit now and actually writing from it.
Everything i can say is, that background data was on, autosync was OFF, google talk kept trying to connect, and i was using the free website.
Anyone can figure out what is this, and if we can use it ?

All of it... at once... it was like reaching nirvana! LOLOL
Sorry, had to make the joke...
Just about every carrier has a "grace" on the request of data when you connect to their APN, basically, you add the APN, start browsing, and it takes them a few minutes to realize your phone shouldn't have access before they cut you off.

[Q] Brilliant Corners 1.2-Market stopped working

Since there is no Brilliant Corners 1.2 thread anymore I will have to post here.
Market started acting funny to night. A app would start to download and the blue download arrow would show it was
downloading but nothing was coming through. I did a search and saw some suggestions on about starting Google Talk
and that would fix it but, I do not have Google Talk. Early on in my experiment with the tablet I thought I would never
call anyone with the G- Tab so I deleted it, and don' t know if that it was okay to do that but it is done. Anyway, I read
about doing the original. Market fix. I did this but, now all I get is "server error Retry", I also waited for WiFi to connect.
I have rebooted 3 times with the same results. Any suggestions?
try manually installing the newest version of the android market. You can download from here. http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/1...te-update-over-wi-fi-only-shortcuts-and-more/
Installed the latest version of Market (3.3.11) and got the same results. Did the "Market Fix " twice and still get the same results. Could it possibly be because I am on a 3G ad - hoc network? I do not have "download by WiFi only" enabled in the options. Market does notify me of the apps that need updating.
Found the problem. In Droidwall some of the necessary components for Market to work were not on the White List. Being on vacation and using a prepaid 3g broadband card with a cap I was over zealous in what I allowed access to the Internet. I learned a good lession.

[Q]

at&t update blocked my atrix
I have at&t atrix but it's unlocked and I'm using it in Europe with my carrier.
Couple days ago I was notified that there is an update from att and that I should download, which I didn't do, but anyway phone downloaded package itself and it reminded me every hour that I should install it and no data will be lost. I did that finally last night but now I can't get it to work, there is android icon and ! sign on it and it has been there the whole night but will not turn on again. finally I took the battery out and than returned it, it started to work for one minute and than it showed -turning off, and android icon is now on the screen again???
Please help or advise!
If you press the up and down volume buttons when the icon appears, do you enter a menu?

I'll give it a try and reply.....
well I took it to service center, they told me that they can enter in that menu, but they can root it again, but all data will be lost.... can I avoid loosing data???
If they just factory reset and reflash the rom, you shouldn't lose things like pictures and music, but you will lose app data including saved games and text messages.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
it's done, they charged me cca. 30$ but managed to save phonebook and photos, all else is lost. I can deal with that but I'm frustrated that this was caused by at&t update where I didn't have option to say no, just install now or install later. It also said that all data will be saved, which obviously was a lie. How can they do that, I didn't want this update at all.
This is very inconvenient for me, but than again it seems that no one cares!
Official update my as.......
Thank you for advice but this sucks!

[Q] App payment authorization issue on WiFi

First, I have searched both here and Google regarding my question but all I’ve turned up are problems with WiFi connections (which I don’t have – my connection is always solid) and reported problems about 8 months ago with payments in general (my problems are with WiFi only).
My problem is that any time I try to purchase an app on Android Market (and now Google Play) using WiFi, the app hangs at the point where it’s trying to authorize payment. It just sits there no matter how long I wait (well… at least 10 minutes or so). If I switch over to the home screen, turn off WiFi so 4G comes back up and then switch back to Android Market/Google Play, payment goes through properly. Once the download starts I can switch back to WiFi and the app will download without issue. This happened several times when I was straight stock using Android Market, at least once when I switched to NRG’s ROM using Android market, and again this morning with Google Play; it isn’t just the new Google Play app.
I wanted to ask whether anyone else has experienced this and whether you found any reason for it or a solution to it. This isn’t the end of the world but it would be nice to have it working correctly so I don’t have to mess around with the connection while trying to download a large app.
Thanks!

Thanks for the link, but unfortunately my issue is different. I never got an error of any kind, it just sat there trying to authorize payment until I switched from WiFi back to 4G, then it went through without issue. Afterword, I could download the app on WiFi just fine.
Thanks again.
My payments for apps only work over 4g
well I can confirm it isn't using wifi, it COULD be your router or firewall, or some other settings. I can confirm it because I don't have a data plan, I use wifi for everything and I have bought apps through it.

Hummm, guess that's just the way it works. Thanks for the feedback.

Unfortunately, YouTube has stopped

I started getting this error last week. If I try to watch a video in Google Plus, or in the YouTube app. Closing and opening it doesn't help. I have to reboot the phone to get it to work again.
Has anyone else had this issue?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Now I can add Maps to this issue. Happened once last night. I tried force closing but it still wouldn't complete loading. I just got the error, "Maps has stopped." "Wait or close?"
I eventually had to reboot the phone.
Took my phone to a Sprint store that has repair techs in house and they asked if I tried a reset and I said yes. They worked on it for a while and then they tried the youtube app on their phones and it did not work either. As I was picking up my phone another person can in and had same problem.
I use orb to stream live and recorded tv to phone and it has stopped working as well.
Try fixing permissions in recovery. Toss a cache wipe in there as well for good measure

I was on phone with level 2 and and they could not get the youtube or orb apps working on my phone. Did a hard reset while on phone, still get connection to server lost. They sent me a new phone and still have same problem, orb and youtube do not work. Connection to server lost for youtube and orb will not connect at all.
I did notice that a few apps showed up like the mirror app and a couple others when I first looked at phone about a week ago. thats when I started having problems with youtube.
How do I change those settings in recovery and clear cach you were talking about? Not rooted at the moment.
Thanks for any help.
