I've been having a weird problem with my Vibrant for the past ten hours or so, and can't seem to find a solution. I was running stock rooted JI6 and attempted to apply some app updates through the Market, but began getting network connection errors. I gave it several minutes, and when it refused to let me in, I restarted the phone, which had no effect. I did an ODIN restore and reverted to factory settings, and the phone refused to sign me into my Google account, saying it couldn't establish a reliable connection. I hunted around and eventually got signed in using the YouTube app workaround, but now when I try to access the Market it says the server is unavailable.
I haven't heard any buzz about a major outage, so I assume this is not something on Google's end. For the record, my connection is fine (tried to sign in to Market on both 3G and WiFi, no go, but browser and other internet-connected apps work fine, as do Google's sync services once I've managed to sign in through YouTube), and my Google account appears entirely normal PC-side. I saw an old thread about people having problems in China etc. after Google was partially blocked there, but as I'm in the United States, I don't think that applies. I am completely at a loss, and now I'm stuck with a factory-settings phone with no apps because I can't get into the Market.
I've followed the XDA forum for a couple months now, but this is my first post. I'll be heading to a T-Mobile store to ask them about it later today, but I'm hoping you folks will be able to shine some light on the subject in the meantime and perhaps even save me the trouble. I'm still pretty new to smartphones and Android, so go much beyond rooting and ODIN 101 and I'm quite ignorant. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks for your attention!
Market works fine on my end. Try clearing the data on market that has helped me in the past. From home screen menu/ settings/ applications/ manage apps/ market/ clear data and cache reboot.
There's no entry for the Market in my apps list, since it's pre-installed.

No change.
Ok I've been using TB to restore my apps before. Since it's no root yet, I let Google restore my apps but some apps are missing like YouTube and Google Maps. When I go to the market and download said apps, I get a unsuccessful error message. I have lots of space left and the apps that were restored installed with no problems. Anyone else running into this?
Just pull the .apk files from your TB directory and install that...check "allow non market apps"etc etc etc
...for now anyway...

Wierd.. I tried updating the profile earlier today and it told me there was no update available but I tried again just now and it worked. Now the market downloads work. Thanks for the help.!
I have the same problem on wifi.. but if Im on the 3G network it seems to work.. I just thought that it was my router! Glad to know it aint just me.
I live in Cyprus, and cannot see all the apps in the market due to regional restrictions. I can't even see the official Gmail app.
I've tried "Paid apps enabler", "Market enabler" and "Market Access". PAE and ME return an error when I try to change to a US carrier, while MA reports that it has changed the carrier succesfully (but the market restrictions are still there). I'm guessing that this happens because my GT10.1 is the wifi only model thus there are no phone carrier settings to spoof (or google simply ignores the carrier's codes).
My device is rooted. Note that I've been succesfully using "paid apps enabler" on my nexus one for some months now. I have also tried to replace build.prop from a US xoom, and restarting, without any success.
How is google registering my location without 3g? Is it just by IP? Any ideas on how to overcome this?
I have de same problem. I have tried all that apps to no luck.
Go to apps and force close and delete data of Market and Market Update, restart And use a VPN connection. I use strongvpn

I'd prefer a simpler solution like the market access one. Any experts around to answer if that is technically possible since the wifi only model has no carrier to spoof??

It won't work....tried that with a rooted XOom.
What also works is getting the build.prop file of a Tab with 3G from a supported market. Than root and push it to the system folder.
I live in saudi and we have the same problem we can not get paid apps. I have a vpn account with private internet access with a US connection so I setup the vpn account in the tab and I got all the paid apps

this makes paid apps accessible but they still can not be installed. it fails when redirect to "My Apps" page. seems that something other than market and market-updater blocks the action.
try this:
remove the Google account, add it again after connect to VPN, then the location will be all reset, all app will be available.
this works for my but too inconvenient. I hope I will find some easier way soon.

I tried this and it doesnt work for me. I checked my IP and it's a usa ip.
Need build.prop
I have the same problem and all research seems to point to getting a build.prop file from a unit that has 3G. The Xoom users that had wifi only units had the same problem and this is how they got around it.
Now the question is where can we get a 3G US version of build.prop?
I can tell from experience that both the build.prop or VPN work.
The build.prop is way too complicated and requires root.
For VPN to work go to apps and clear all user data in location apps/market apps. Also clear all location based detection in settings. Before you restart the Tab, go into airplane mode and then restart.
When you're back enter password for your VPN, ready to login, but before you do enable wifi access and almost immediatly after that connect to your VPN, this way alll services go through the VPN. Works fine for me.
Sorry, I have tried every combination of VPN and still cannot get it to work.
I have a rooted tab, so I think the build.prop would be an easy solution if I can just find a valid US based 3G file to copy.

anybody have the build.prop and the method to install it ?
The 3G version is out but I still have not read anything about how to update the build.prop file to avoid the market issue. However, I have been able to successfully download and get to most apps on the market by following some hints from other helpful people on these forums....namely by closing all market related apps, clearing their cache, opening up a US based VPN and going back into the market.

I tried this (from China) from my Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 Plus, while using Market Enabler, faking my location, and changing my location (in time and location). I can see the paid apps, but once I try to download the order cancels. Akarim47, did you actually download any paid apps? I'm trying to get some paid apps, as well as a few free that aren't available overseas (why?) such as File Manager HD.

I can confirm this works from China.
Using a Galaxy Tab 7 plus.
Hey Everyone,
Are any of you living outside of the US having issues with the new market? In order for me not to get a force close seconds after opening it I have to use Market Enabler to fake my provider to T-Mobile, clear data on the market and open it again. After doing that I can use it without getting force closures.
Running Liberated 2.2.2
Nope. Works well for me with native operator code and with fake t-mobile (NL) code.
Thanks for the feedback. I guess its just me then, I actually uninstalled it cuz started getting FCs even after faking my provider.
Try to delete Market's data in settings.
I gave up

I tried that too but still was getting FCs. I'm back on the old market.
Thanks anyways
So I had rooted my S6 edge yesterday and install adaway but it noticed a lot of pages would not load up at all with it on, like food network for one, so I uninstalled it and installed adfree and still the same issue, in both cases if I went into the apps and reverted them back the pages loaded fine. Now the weird thing is this is specifically an issue on that phone alone, I've never had an issue before, I have adfree on my Shield Tablet and it will load the exact same page just fine, even when it's internet connection is thru the phone via wireless tethering. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this problem and if there's a way to fix it?
And update to android system webview in the polar store solved this problem for me.. See if you're on version 42.0.2311, which should be the current version which solved my issue
Unfortunately it wad already updated to that version, I tried reverting to stock installed version and same issue, reinstalled the update and all same issue :/
I have not installed adaway so excuse my ignorance, but why not just install firefox and use the adblock edge add-on? I'm curious why there is a need for adaway? Does adaway just block ads on the native android browser or does it block ads as well on apps?
Thanks

Mainly because I don't like the Firefox browsers, I like chrome much better as it actually syncs between all my browsers, especially my pc side I use chrome there as well. And yes, adaway blocks ads in every app, not just browsers.
Got it thanks, i don't use sync at all on chrome or FF but just so you are aware FF also i believe has a sync too.
cheers
