hi, tonight i've just flashing a custom ROM for my p500 everything works fine.
but after i finished setting my google account, the market suddenly start downloading all apps that i've installed on my previous ROM, without asking my permission, and yet i cant find any way to cancel it.. even i have turn off my data access but the downloading notification is still in the status bar, and it'll resume as soon as i re-enable my data access...
of course i've done googling and find many solutions like:
1) force closing the market --> not working
2) clearing the market cache and data --> not working
3) go to the apps page that currently downloading trough the market, to find a cancel button, but it's not there
4) opening "my apps" list on the market, all the apps that currently downloading was there but their status haven't "installed" yet of course... but the cancel button was also not there....
how do I get rid of this?
it really pisses me off

So I put all my apps to auto update, a feature of the new Market. Bummer is my wifi cut off apparently in the middle of an installation or something because one app is stuck on "Installing" and never installs. It's always stuck in this state and because of that I can't uninstall/reinstall it. I manually uninstalled it thinking it may fix market but it didn't and now I can't find it anywhere except on the market.
I know if I reflash my whole ROM, the market will be fixed but I'd rather NOT have to do that cause it simply is too much work. Is there any simpler way to reset the market?
You can go to menu settings, applications, manage appications, menu show all and reset the cache/data of the market app.
Thx. I actually figured it out by uninstalling the updates to it and then reinstalling it. Worked perfect

Hi all,
I somehow managed to break my Market App. Whenever I try to download an app (even free ones). I receive the following error: "error processing purchase".
I backed up my ROM with CWM and reset my Tab to factory default. I am able to download again. However I'm hoping that someone can send me the stock Android Market App, so I don't have to start customizing all over again.
Thanks in advance!
I spent hours trying to fix this and finally came to the solution. Clearing the market cache and removing your Google account must be done concurrently. If all else fails, remove your Google account, clear the cache for the market, and clear all cache and data from all applications and services that use the market icon. This is kind of like hunting a rabbit with a bazooka, but it'll git'er done.
To re-hash concisely:
Be aware: if steps 1, 2, and 3 don't work, step 4 can solve your problem ( it did for me ), but it may cause adverse effects or problems ( I'm not sure ).
1) Go to settings --> Account & Sync --> Click your Google account --> and click remove in the upper right hand corner of the screen.
2) Go to settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications --> Click the "All Applications" tab --> and then scroll until you find "Market". Choose "Clear Data".
3) Make another attempt to download or purchase an app.
If you still receive the error message:
4) Repeat steps 1 & 2 , but in addition to clearing the market cache ( which happens in step 2 ), look for any applications that seem related to the market ( there were multiple services and programs I found ) and clear the data/cache for all of them. When this step is completed, your tablet will reinitialize upon exit. You may receive a notification or error.
5) Restart your tablet, click the market, and you will be prompted to add a Google account. Sign in and accept the terms!!!
Hope this works!

error on market app
Im getting crazy as I can´t download any market app at all.
The first time I installed (3.3 bl1.1), I got 6 apps downloaded form the market app, and then suddenly stop saying and error purchasing even free apps. After hours trying to change settings now the market app even doesnt open saying that cannot get info from the server!!!
Tried to clear cache, wipe data and even reinstall the rom, but the same thing happens now after just 1 download from the android market, it says "error purchasing" a free app..
I really loved this ROM, but this is a crucial feature, can someone post an workaround for this ?
This happened to me after restoring a nandroid. In the end I ended up reflashing and restoring my user app data from TitaniumBackup. Problem solved. Good Luck

You could try to restore with TTB or uninstall and install a fresh apk. Or make a new nandroid backup, flash an older working Android backup, copy the apk onto your SD card, restore the broken nandrod backpup, uninstall market, use root explorer to move the working market apk to system/app and reinstall it from there.

I had the same issue happened to me. A workaround that worked for me is using the web market. Try that, it should work. The only thing is that it wont install automatically. After downloading from the web market I had to go to the market native app and search again for the app i just dl. Now the market native app would display Install instead of download.
That was the only way to dl the app.
Then I had issue with battery drainage, So decided to flash it back to stock and no more problems with the market.

" error processing purchase" solution that worked for me
Hi.
I'm new to the forum. I just bought my first tablet. A Viewsonic GTablet that was rooted to Honeycomb 3.0. First thing I found out about it was that I couldn't download free apps from the Market. I could get the paid ones however. I could also download free ones from Amazon. So I googled and googled and read the posts here and elsewhere and tried most of the fixes but I was as frustrated as all of us. So I thought that maybe there would be a newer version of Market that had bug fixes and so on and I found
It's version 3.0.26. I was trying to post the link but they tell me as a new member of the forum I'm not allowed to post outside links yet. Cool. The link was actually to a RapidShare site if your trust them. It was free. It was easy to just gmail it to myself and on my Viewsonic I found it in the Download folder and did the install. Sure enough I'm now a happy camper. First thing I got was Flash Player of course. I want the SiriusXM app but I installed it and log in and get the "checking for updates" that never ends. But that's a different topic.
By the way. I did email Android Market support and they got right back to me and said that they were working on it. I sent them my update that I am posting here.
The Market sometimes just has issues. As others have said clearing cache can help. Other times the only thing to do is wait and try to repurchase again later.

cheers mate. I did steps 1,2 and 3 and market is working fine again
it worked for me for a day and the issue came back again.
darn frustrating
I get no love with the Jamesyboy fix.
Seems a common enough problem, but no solid fix after all this time.

Found a real fix.
Install new market.apk from
http://www.arctablet.com/assets/apps/Android_Market_v3.1.5.apk
and install.
Then hunt down and uninstall the old faulty market app.
To do that, if you click the "Market" label at the top right of the "Apps" screen the system will prompt you to complete action with...
That will tell you the name of the old market app to go find and uninstall.
The Market backend (not your Tab or other device) is the problem. They've been getting a huge response to those $0.10 apps, and it's revealing some issues with the servers.
settings- privacy- factory data reset. then when it reboots wipe data for market. it's been working for me so far for a few hours. it hasn't updated to google play store yet tho, i don't know why and don't care as long as i can download apps.
Market Legacy Will cause this
if you use the google play legacy app to see what apps you have installed previously it will break in-app purchases. Uninstall and wipe normal market cache
Also try clearing media cache
I periodically have the Google Play Store get stuck on "Installing..." when I try to install an app (JellyBean, different tablet tho). I've done Clear Data for it & the Google Play Services as suggested above. But what I also needed to do was Clear Data on Media Storage. I have a large (~40GB) side-loaded MP3 collection, and the media crawler sometimes gets bogged down causing problems for everything (including Camera, which is apparently connected to Gallery, which apparently uses the media crawler). Of course, after you do this you will need to be patient (and perhaps reboot?) while it re-indexes your media.
i see..
As the title says, since the update to the Verizon razr my apps won't show up in the market. It just says apps downloaded by me will appear hear then browse apps. I'm sorry if this is in the wrong area, admin feel free to move.

System update, or phone update?
Are these apps you previously used on your razr? Try installing the most recent market apk if yes.

I've had the same problem since I got my Razr. It showed all of my apps in the old version, but automatically updated it to the newest version of the market after closing. From then on it shows this page everytime. For now, I'm using AppBrain so I can see which apps need to be updated, but it's quite annoying.
Have you guys tried installing the market again? Wouldn't hurt, not sure if it'd fix it though.
Give it a shot.

I uninstalled updates on the Market app, and it said it rolled back to version 2.3.6. I then ran the market app to see if it would show my apps. It gave me this error: "Attention - A server error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen". I can retry as many times I want without change. I was sure to check show all apps in Settings. I installed an app off the market, checked my apps, and the same error persisted. Finally, I closed the market, it auto-updated to version 3.4.4, and shows the same screen when trying to view My Apps. Google's support page has pages of people with the same problem with no resolution.
Ty mista wolf, tried uninstalling and reinstalling and nothing different.
Edit: ty Emilio for the info shot the support pages blowing up.

Same is happening here, 651.73.250.XT910.Brasil.en.BR (2.3.5) - 6.5.1_73_SLC-25, brand new rom installation. Tried clearing market data and uninstalling updates, but nothing helps..
Sounds like an issue on google end. Not happening on my phone. I think I have 3.4.4
Found this on the android group help page, and it worked for me:
1) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>google services framework>clear data
2) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear cache and force close
3) go to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear cache and clear data
4) Reboot phone
5) Open and sign out of GTalk, then re-open and sign in.
6) Open Market and accept agreement. Let it load your apps. Close Market.
7) Go to market.android.com and sign in. Go to My Market Account>Settings tab>Edit>Nickname your phone and click Update.
8) Install an app from market.android.com.
After this it took a few hours, but all my apps show now.

Advice would be to wait for sometime and might be the problem get solved by its own..
Otherwise what you can do is to login to market.android.com with your google credentials and download apps from web market, it will work surely.
It happens with me too sometimes but get resolved by its own.
I prefer downloading apps via web market.
downloading from website is the same as downloading with phone, because the website only works for choosing apps that you want to install, so it will not work for me cause my phone won't do the download. I've tried it.
thank you for reply though..
Hi, has anyone else all of sudden have a Facebook (Build 140579) download bar on their notification bar that will not go away even after a reboot? Its been apparently tying to download for the past couple hours and its not coming from the Google store since its not updating from there.
hey me too!! found this thread on google... I don't know what this facebook download is.
I tried closing apps like facebook, google store, browser.. everything. Still there.
Here's a list of my running apps:
whatsapp, viber, wssynclnps, software update, settings, MAPServiceSamsung, GoogleServices, Media, Remote Controls, Maps, Google Play Store, S Suggest, Email, SecPhone, Simple Alarm clock, Stock Daemon(EUR), S Voice, Swype Beta 1.4
Tried closing most of them but can't get rid of it. I tried disabling mobile data, nothing. Even tried to uninstall facebook (don't use it tbh), nothing.
Galaxy S3 here.
ok, found more info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189262
it appears you can tap and hold the notification and then click app info, it's the Download Manager process. If you clear data and force stop, the weird facebook notification will disappear for good.
Thanks, did just that and it went away. Hopefully for good since my battery was getting drained faster trying to download nothing.

Same problem here
i'm on a galaxy nexus and am experiencing the same thing. restarting doesn't work, and force closing the download manager only temporarily stops the problem.
EDIT: what seemed to work for me was to go to long press for app info clear data and then force stop the download manager. hasn't come back... yet
Happening on Verizon HTC Rezound with Android 4.0.3. Rebooted, uninstalled Facebook updates (can't uninstall the original version), reinstalled updates - no change. Long pressing it does nothing.
