For some reason when downloading an app from the Market, the app will keep re-downloading if i exit the Market. The only way i can download anything is to keep the market open to allow it to fully download and install.
Anyone else have this issue? is it because of the V6 supercharger script?
I do not use a task killer at all.
Happens constantly. Extremely annoying. I also can't download and install .apks directly from my phone no matter what. The ONLY way I can do it is by connecting to my computer. Then that creates a new USB issue all together.
General rant. Sorry. This thing needs a custom ROM like a fat kid needs cake.
Couldn't agree more with that last statement, I occasionally get the same issue with the .apks bit it's not constant.

You can't install .apks from your phone's SDCard because you have "Unknown Sources" unchecked in your application settings menu.
I also have the problem where quitting the market application will cancel downloads, but it doesn't do that whenever I "minimize" it, if you will, only whenever I force quit it.
Is this what you're talking about or am I misunderstanding?
I believe it's from minimizing it as well. Also unknown sources is selected on my device I believe the only reason I've had any lock ups in installing .asks is due to an occasional glitch in Dolphin, also how does one properly minimize an application?

By hitting the home button. If you'd like to continue where you left off after minimizing an app hold the home button down until recent apps pops up.

That's a mighty big assumption that I have it unchecked. It is checked. This isn't my first rodeo pal, I know what I'm doing.

Must be one of those beautiful software glitches, not too gamebreaking though. I still love this phone.

Issues with downloading apks
I've had some issues with unsuccessful downloads of apks. I've been tweaking 7 different x2 and the issues seem completely random. I've saved all the apks to a folder on the comp, so now I just drag and drop them in. Installing hasn't been a problem though. I was wondering if I should try the new market update or stick with what I have. Haven't really noticed an issue with it, on any of them.

It will auto update even if you do that, unless you freeze it somehow.. I did the uninstall updates a couple times last night when it got pushed to my phone.. but it kept auto updating...
I still haven't received the update...I assume I just open the market and it'll start updating when it has it right?
Does it matter if I'm on Kenn's beta 4 and not any sort of official OTA build or anything?

Hmmm, my checkin was successful, but still no update... That's weird that I wouldn't get it yet, didn't they start pushing it to Atrix users like 2 or 3 days ago? And there's been no word that they stopped due to bugs or anything?
I was updated to the new market yesterday and today saw that Titanium had an update. Clicking on it opens screen that only allows for the app to be opened or uninstalled. I don't see any option to update.
How do we update with the new market?
Thanks,

I had the same problem when my market auto upgraded. I think what happens is that the market account gets screwed up and it doesn't allow you to update some things. Its fixable - you have to reregister your phone with the market. The bad news is the only way I could figure to do this was to clean wipe and start over. I suppose you could factory reset to. I bet there's an easier route - but I haven't found it.

This worked for me! Thanks guys for the clarification on setting permissions.
I thought I had this issue fixed, but it has resurfaced. I have the market telling me there is now an update for Handcent SMS, however it doesn't give me the option to update! I can only open or uninstall.
I tried the fix starflorida posted multiple times, but it just isn't doing the trick. Does anyone have an idea what's going on? Any suggestions or feedback?
There is a new version of the market rolling out today. Try clearing data and restarting market and see if that helps?

I was hoping to avoid that, just so i don't have to re-enter all of my info. But, if I can't get it straightened out, I'll give that a go.
I now have 2 apps sitting there waiting for an update that I can't complete: Handcent & Unlock with Wifi. If I click the app individually, I only get the choices of opening or uninstalling. However, if I click the button that says "Update 2", it looks like it will work! I don't get it.
Edit: I am currently getting the "Low on Space" message from my phone (I prefer not to put my apps on the SD card, if possible). Could this be the reason why I can't update my apps?
Clearing the market data seems to have worked as a temporary fix. It is no longer showing that I need to update any of my apps. However, I did not receive the latest market version. It is still the same version I had prior to clearing data, version 3.0.27
It will, when you least expect it! You can download an apk from Android central if you don't want to wait...

This is going to sound really stupid but the new market (the tiled, dark one) is so slow it's unusable, regardless of which rom I'm using. Things will load eventually but I'm talking 4 or 5 mins per page to load. This is on my normal Huawei router.
By chance I used a different brand of router (at home, same line, same connection speed, etc) yesterday and market loads normally without any slowdown. Back to my own router and it slows right down again.
So my question is, what has changed in the new market that makes my router unable to load it properly? The old market loaded at normal speed, as it should. I can't change routers as the one I was using was just for testing purposes.
Can anyone shed any light on this please?

Thanks for the suggestions, I've checked and it's on the latest firmware. Have also reset the modem but nothing changed. It's a Huawei H520b. I tried a D-link router yesterday and it loaded the marked perfectly.
It sounds like the new market uses some sort of different security settings or something, that my router can't handle. I'm not very techy so wouldn't know which settings to even look at!
Go into settings find the market and select uninstall updates. This will take you bacl to the previous version.
Then grab a program like Titanium Backup Pro and freeze the market updater in the list of apps and then you can stay on the previous version as long as you want...

I don't have an option to uninstall updates...strange. I should have mentioned I'm not using stock, and I think the new market was included as standard with the Home Base rom I'm using.
I'm going to try to install the old market from an .apk file, see if I can revert back, then uncheck the update function, as suggested.
No big deal, I was just hoping there might be a setting I could change somewhere so I could use the new market.
Thanks for all your suggestions guys
That's a shame because for some on other custom ROMs, they can still use this method.
Oh well for anyone else that's interested. Settings->manage applications->market->uninstall updates.
This is the screen that you should see then and hit uninstall updates in the top right hand corner...

I spoke too soon, it launches but force closes.
It is now force closing on me, on the plus side if I access android market from computer it now lists Nook Tablet as one of my devices.
I got it to run once, then it force closed when i tried to download something. Now it force closes on Start.
It also crashes for me when I try to install or update an app. I wonder if this has to do with the same storage issue Amazon Market had before I installed an SD card. Before installing an SD card, Amazon Market refused to install anything. It appears that Android Market might prefer to crash.
Op, can you change the title of the thread? I don't want to lead any one on.
Thanks for the effort tho, we shall keep trying.
Title changed =( Man I was so excited for a minute.
Looks like it quits on start because its still trying to download what ever app you last selected.
Does android generate an error report when apps force close? If so perhaos we could pull that and alter android market apk to work around issue. Just a thought.

I used GetJar to download some free popular apps. I was bored using SQLite one day and went into GetJar. I did not like all info it seemed to be storing about my usage patterns. Ie, how often i open each app and when.
Anybody know about GetJar?
Right when that "Market" came out I used it and downloaded a few things shortly after I started getting the AirPush adds in my notif bar. I uninstalled the apps and the GetJar Market and haven't used it since.

I use autostart sparingly but another reason I ask is because after installing Tapatalk from GetJar, all my phones notification sounds were changed to random 15 second sections of random songs in my library. I was at work, my phone rang, and all of a sudden Hatebreed was screaming through my speaker haha. Basically I uninstalled the market too.
Weird, I use it with no issues what so ever. I only use it to get the free versions of known apps like Tapatalk though. No adds in my notification bar.

I used it, but disabled it starting up when the phone started, never got any ads, however I would still find it starting up intermittently, so I uninstalled, I would install again if I found an app I like on there and uninstall after i need it
It's a battery hog. That I can say. I second thewarhawk's recommendation. Install if needed, uninstall afterwards.
+ 1 on no ads & battery hog. I always freeze it after I checked / downloaded something.
Never had a problem till trying to download a ROM and it tried to re-download itself while I was downloading the new darkside. It was uninstalled at time but the apk was still on sd card WTF.
