I am tearing my hair out.
Every time I try to install the latest Google Voice (0.4.2.32) on my A70, I get an "application not installed" error. I have tried three different apks from three places. I first tried my own backups from my phone using Titanium and Astro. Then I tried downloads from two different sites. The latest version only requires 1.6 and up, so I don't think it's a version thing.
I have selected install apps from unknown sources, but still no good. I can't find GV in the Market because the market fix doesn't work for me anymore. I've tried it a dozen times.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I use my tablet for everything and GV is a must for me.

I recently updated my rooted Eris running nonSensical ROM to the laest version of the Market and now when I search for any applications (games or apps) I get no results found.
If i search for books or movies I do get results. Any ideas on how to fix this?
I have tried clearing cache, clearing data, and even doing an uninstall on updates to the Market app.
The uninstall does take it back to e previous version, but no results found still. Then after restarting the Market, it auto updates to the latest version again.
Am i going to need to reload the ROM to get the market going again?
Try the procedure from this post here. This cleared up the market issues I was having. Also, it may be my imagination, but after doing this, things seem to load a bit faster in the market for me. Just a thought!

this is not for noobs though ... i have no freakin idea what file to put where and what to do? i just downloaded stock FW and kernel, flashed it via odin on my samsung galaxy s2, and after the flashing my market just don't respond. i can't find facebook, gmail, google+, zedge, nothing. it's just as if my account has been banned... i only get some homebrewed apps shown when i search for proper apps. and since my phone is not rooted, i believe i don't have the premission to move any system files ?
hi all,
I have installed and flashed few roms on my GS2. Suddently google play stopped downloading apps, it gets stagnated at "Downloading" status. Have tried every trick in the book like reinstalling ROMs, reinstalling market/play app, clear data/clear cache.. tried many different roms including stock.. but this problem flows in all versions all kernels and all solutions..
badly need you help in solving the problem.I am able to restore apps back from titanium and these apps function normally!and no problem with google talk as well!
Hi there
I hope someone can help me or give me a pointer. The short story is that Google Play has reverted to the Android Market (v2.3.4) and I can't download anything from the Market.
The longer story is this...
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, bought sim-free over a year ago, running Android 2.3.3. Yesterday I had a problem with Google Play not being able to download some apps. This was clearly wrong: I had 1.5GB free of 16GB. In the course of trying to fix this (ha!), and trying to find recovery mode, I borked the device further. Google Play reverted to Android Market v2.3.4, and some apps got messed up in random ways and consistently crashed. I uninstalled some of the crashing apps, but I still cannot download anything from the Market in order to reinstall them.
I've cleared cache and cleared data for various apps and services: Market, Download Manager, Google Play Services (odd that that's still there), Google Services Framework, and maybe some others.
The problem with the Market is that when I touch to download an app it readies itself for the download (moving diagonal lines on the progress bar) and then the progress bar disappears as if it's finished. There is no download, and certainly no install, but no error message either. On the other hand my web-based Google Play account says I've just downloaded it. And meanwhile my web-based Google Play account says there are no devices associated with my account.
Given the situation with Market, I can't even download something like MarketFixer which may help. I can sideload apks, but I can't find a (legitimate-looking) apk like MarketFixer to download.
I've never rooted my device, so I don't expect to have to do that to fix this. Before do a factory reset, does anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks
Nik
Update: Solved in thread below
ah darn!! i thought i could help you, up until the point where you said you didn't root . If you rooted then you could just install the latest version of google play

Thanks for even thinking of that, dragid10.
Hmm... theoretically, if I routed, where would I get the latest version of Google Play from? I can't access the Market, after all.
There are a few threads in the apps forum here on XDA one is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1932489
I also don't think you need to be rooted to install it. Just make sure you turn on unknown sources from settings(either under applications or security)
Also have you tried uninstalling updates for the market or removing your Google account from your phone and re-adding it.
Edit:Updated thread URL original one was a closed thread.

nsmith4, thank you. That's moved me a bit forward. I couldn't find a Google Play apk, and now I've got Google Play back on my device, and the web version of Google Play knows about my device again.
(I did try to delete my Google account and it refused me. It said it was needed by some applications and should do a factory reset instead!)
So now it seems I'm back to my original problem: I (still) can't download any apps from Google Play because it says (wrongly) there's insufficient space on device. I shall keep looking for an apk of MarketFixer or similar. This problem is now the same as the one reported here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436188
although of course I cannot download MarketFix to help me fix the market.
Update: That install of Google Play didn't stick. When I rebooted the phone it took me through the Android initiation process (asked for Google username and password) and Market was back in place of Play.
Looks like a problem with factory resetting every time you restart. That is a bigger problem. Google Play will automatically update itself (all update to com.android.vending will).
Try taking the ICS update (if you haven't already), you need a fresh install of the OS. Or you can root and install a ROM. Same thing

You say you "borked the device further". The question is, what happened? What did you do, and what got borked, in what way? If you don't even know, then it will be difficult or impossible to repair. The easiest and fastest solution will be to install a fresh ROM, like Gagdude said.

gagdude, post-mortem: No, I didn't keep a careful record of what I did. The "borking" is a combination of the problems listed above. I'm going to do a factory reset and upgrade to ICS, as suggested, thanks. Will keep you posted.
Mid-point update: Successfully factory reset my phone (Volume up + Power on, factory reset, then reboot). Now my SIM card isn't recognised (sigh).
The same problem, but with a different device, is here:

It appears as if my modem software is messed up. The saga continues.
Solved! SIM working again.
...And miraculously it's solved!
I flashed a new ROM onto the device -- ICS, which is very shiny and new to me -- using Odin, and it came back to life perfectly. Useful links were:

Hi I have tried to download apps from the Play Store and I found that they are apps that download and install, and others that only show the "processing" progress bar. I have tried several things without solving this, I have wiped cache and app data from the Play Store and the Google Framework Service and even factory reseted my tablet. And errased all the downloaded list apps in the Play Store, and it solved it with several apps, but it wasn´t a permanent solution. Also I thought it was a problem of the ROM I installed so from CM 10 I returned to the Stock ROM, with the same problem.
If someone has a way to fix this, please help me :crying:
PD: If you have the same problem, please say what you have tried and how it started, we might be able to find a way to solve it
