[Q] Android Market 3.1.3 on SGS2 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone installed andriod market 3.1.3 on the sgs2 in the UK?
If so, does it work?

Installed it last night, it's a slight improvement on the previous version which was a nightmare, there is still some lag which needs to be addressed, only a slight improvement.

Have you had any issues in installing apps with regards to clicking on an app, then clicking the install button, and then you just get the loading screen, but it never actually goes through with the install?
This is the problem i keep getting - i flashed the stock firmware on last night and it updated the market but fails to pull all my apps back from my google account...
Only way i can get them to install is via the market website through pushing them over the air...
Be interesting to know if this is as a result of the KG6 firmware i flashed before going back to the stock, or whether it is just a bug with the new market...

All works fine for me, on stock 2.3.3

Where can we get the apk with this new Market?

Try clearing the Market cache...
settings > applications > manage applications (all tab) > market > clear data

Can you add the apk for direct download?

I got something like that.
I flashed my SGS2 to the latest XXKH3, wiping user data and cache. The first time I entered my google account my apps starts installing itself over wifi (so far so good)... During this process I launched Android Market app to see the progress, and I see the Android Market app updated... nice! But I saw that pending downloads with no progress. I switched wifi off, and the downloads continue over 3g connection... But I don't want to use my data plan downloading apps, I back to wifi but still the problem, no downloading progress...
I cleared cache for Android Market, but the same behavior
Any solutions will be appreciated... thank you

I got exactly the same issue.
This is what prompted me to go back to stock as I presumed it may be something to do with the unofficial version of KH3 causing the problem, but after going back to stock i still had the problem.
However, after leaving the phone alone for a couple of hours it seems to have fixed itself, and i can now download via wifi (albeit i'm testing it using a mates tethered sgs2).

[Q] Market Can't Download [Resolved]

OK after intensive research and tried every possible fix there is, I'm now officially stuck.
When going in to the Market app and trying to download or update something it just says "Starting download..." and stays there.
I've tried force closing market > clearing cache > uninstall update.
That doesn't work. I've tried resetting to factory defaults, and that doesn't work.
This was the case when I also flashed to UK Generic 2.0.A.0.504 a couple of days ago. Which I there after restored back to my working Global Generic 2.0.A.0.504 via xRecovery.
Now I've flashed to Nordic Combined (B) 2.0.2.A.0.24 and it turns out that it has the very same problem.
I could chose to go back to my backed-up Global Generic firmware via xRecovery, but the whole point in upgrading was to get the latest firmware.
I've then read that logging out from Talk and logging back in should solve the problem. But when I try to open the Talk app it just opens up and disappears again like it Force Closes or crashes.
This must be some sort of Google malfunction in the way it connects to my Google account. I've tried reflashing with SEUS, FlashTool and the result always is the same, no Market working.
Hope there is some Wizard that has a way to fix this.
Not a lot you can do if the fixes don't work as mentioned on the other 1000 or so threads on the subject.
I know there is many threads on the subject.
But those didn't help. It can't be right that a simple update renderes a phone completely useless and nothing can be done about it.

Like I said, if it's not working then there isn't much you can do. There was a thread the other day about a "server issue" with gmail, and the op took umbrage with the suggestion that that's what it might actually be, guess what, it was. So sit it out for a bit because the issue is more than likely their end if none of the fixes have worked.
Well it's not at their end, because if I restore back to my old 2.0.A.0.504 my market works again.
When you flashed your phone, did it come with the old version of Market or new version? If it was the old version and it happened to be able to update itself, then there shouldn't be anything wrong with the Market since it was able to update itself.(assuming)
I was having the same problem yesterday when I flashed to the latest version of Global Generic - x10a and rooted the phone myself. The download would say starting, but nothing would download. I had the same results you did after going through all the steps that were supposed to fix it.
After I left it alone for a several minutes, it just started to work out of the blue when I tried again.
Give it some time and see happens. If you have already waited an hour, then I don't know what to say.
Also, which way did you use to flash your X10?

I used to stuck like that. Yes I also did a lot of research, It ended up just like yours.
If you have no idea for now I suggest try to clean the cache partition through xRec, it used to work once for me.
The other ways I succeed is to play around with the market updater as someone told.
I tried to freeze them, but not working.
So I uninstalled it, not working.
So I reinstalled it again, not working.
So at last I decide to clean the cache of Market and Market Updater... suddenly I got new version of market and everything turned to normal.
So, I'm quite sure it's something to do with a cache. I don't believe in a flashing would be a cure for everything now.
Those google talk, google acc, googlemail.com gmail.com blah blah blah thing, it just trigger to change (or currupt) the cache.
From what i have found all seams to work as soon as you connect to a WIFI network
what apps are not downloading
mine were
Angry Birds
Skype
Google Maps
Facebook for Android
Opera mobile
seems to be apps over 4mb
if we find that its the same apps could be abigger issue

[Q] should i just go back to stock and replace my TB

I have no way of getting my phone to successfully download apps from the android marketplace. I went from bamf 1.6.3 to the unsigned mr1 stock rom, back to bamf and back to mr1 and nothing works for my phone.
I was thinking of reverting to stock and using my insurance to get a new thunderbolt to start new. Every time i tried to fix the problem i am having i would do a full wipe on my phone through cwr and install my rom then at startup i would link my google and or htcsense account but my phone will not allow me to download anything from the market.
Would verizon be able to tell that i rooted my phone if reverted back to stock, unrooted and claimed insurance?
Don't know if this will help, but have you gone to Applications->Manage->All and find Market & MarketUpdater, Force close them and delete data?
Did you also try using Market Doctor in Titanium Backup to see if that helps?

when you are installing your rom do you Wipe Data/ Wipe Cache/ wipe Dalvik (under advance tab)? To me it does not sound like a hardware issue. Also try airplane mode and use wifi to get to market and see if it would let you download something.

To answer this question: if you revert back to non-root, S-ON using a signed ROM and Radio, then no, they will never know.
Ok i did try the tips from nero, didn't work. Don't know what is causing this but monday i am going to stock and s-on and trade it in.
Ok to anyone that has ever had the problem where you couldn't download android market apps, i fixed my problem. I have no idea how i exactly fixed it but i will tell you everything i did before it worked right again. I formatted my sd card, system, data, cache in clockworkmod recovery. I then i installed my rom (bamf remix 1.6.3). I used titanium backups market doctor (it told me no links were found). I synced my google account, htc account and in my privacy settings i checked backup and restore. I synced my phone and let it finish before doings anything. I used my application settings to force close market app and updater then cleared data. Lastly i used super one click and re rooted my phone and then enabled non market apps.
What ever i did i fixed my problem, will link this to bamf remix thread and thank everyone that put up with and helped me
I had this same problem, and thought that I was screwed, but what solved it for me was a battery pull. I got so pissed trying everything that I could, I just pulled the battery and went to sleep.
When I got up, it was syncing just fine.
There are quite a few threads on this subject since I have lurked these forums. Wonder where the problem is.

I had a similar problem a while back and it drove me nuts and I finally figured out why. It was because I have changed some settings in my google account that required a credit card and I never supplied the info. For me it was google adsense for my blog, which I ended up getting rid of, but once I finished the setup of that section of my account I was downloading from the market again.

Can not download apps through Android Market

So, recently when I tried to upgrade to gingerbread (RevolutionRom) I followed all of the instructions to a tease. It worked, but I couldn't get phone service and the battery didn't last 5 hours.
ANYWAYS I went back to trigger and used MyBackup Root to back up all of my apps and data. When I tried to download an app from the Android Market, it would start to show it downloading in the top left corner, then it went away. Recently the new android market came out, so I installed it hoping that it would fix the problem, but it came up with an error "insufficient space on your device" I reflashed the rom, and I even flashed a different rom.
Any ideas how to fix this?
I can download apps either. Im on the new market and the old one wont even open. This one tells me an error has occurred please try again. Wtf?

Did you try wiping the data thru titanium back up? Also thru titanium try market doctor? Open the app hit menu then more and its in there.

[Q] Anyone else having problems with new GMarket constantly FC'ing?

Just wondering if anyone can help me out. A few days ago I installed the new market apk that was floating around. It installs fine, and once it loads the main title screen it FC's.
I've tried all install methods, uninstalling the old, overwriting the the vending.apk.. as well as combinations of wipe cache/data for market, and market updater. I've also tried wiping cache/dav cache as well.
Now tonight I just tried the updated gapps package.. flashed from CWM, and same problem.
I'm telus fascinate, cm7 galaxysmtd70, glitch v11.
Any help?
Thanks.
FYI, I have CM7 Build 3 from nightlies thread.
I installed the new market ('vending.apk'), it is not fc'ing for me. But it does seem to take longer to load than the old version of the Android Market. My LauncherPro, however, does force close from time to time.
Try running 'permission fix' from ROM manager that came with CM7.
I ran this fix and the first time my phone booted, it was on 'safe mode.' Pulled battery and everything was fine. I have yet to find any fc'ing issues after doing so.
Try your luck!
Go into settings then force stop and delete data for Market. Reboot, then try opening the Market.
Thanks for the suggestions, but neither worked. I got to figure this out. If I do, I will keep this post updated.
I cannot figure this out for the life of me. I've tried everything. Including full wipe and reinstall. Still getting the FC's.

which recovery did you try to flash the gapps. zip with? Did you use the power button menu reboot recovery...or did you three finger boot to recovery?...im just saying I've done it by accident/force of habit!...just covering the bases since this is the first I've heard of gaps not installing correctly or fc'ing left and right on anyone.

[Q] CM12 5.1.1 & Verizon Cloud... Can't log in

Been running Jellybean 4.1.2 (CM10) on my XT912 for ages. Decided to try a Lollipop ROM for giggles so upgraded to Safestrap 3.7.5 and installed cm-12.1-20150606-NIGHTLY-spyder.zip Used PAGapps 5.1 micro from 3/15/2105 for the obligatory Google stuff...
Install went fine, phone boots up, got it all "talking" via the various data methods, phone works, SMS works etc...
Installed Google Play services and Play Store (Don't know why they didn't install since I used the same Gapps file to update my Samsung tablet 4-5 days ago and they were installed then. - but I digress)
First order of business was to get my data back so I installed Verizon Cloud. Went through the "Start" procedure and immediately upon trying to log in, I get an error that says the login process has stopped. Tap ok, message repeats. Tap ok once more and the app exits...
Ok, no big deal, I'll clear the apps' data and cache and try again. Same result.
Uninstall, power off, power back up, reinstall. Begin the "Start" procedure and now it says "Mobile number not found". Interestingly enough, my contacts, photos and music all synced in the background while I was messing with Cloud (No, I don't use the Google stuff for backups)
Uninstalled again, wiped Dalvik, reboot and reinstall. Start procedure blah, blah, blah and back to "Unfortunately, Verizon Login has stopped" again.
Anyone got Verizon Cloud running under 5.1.1? Everything else seems to work fine so far...

My Verizon broke on my Spyder after installing the 9 June nightly. The error was about missing the VerizonSSOLogin APK. Uninstall and reinstall of My Verizon did not help.

Interesting.. For giggles I tried the latest nightly yesterday afternoon thinking something was missing. No change but it now sucks my battery dry in a couple hours, even with all the same power saving "setup" I have under JB.
Booted back to JB for now.. Might set up another slot for KK just to see what that's all about...
Thx
I just uninstalled My Verizon to make the ANR error go away. The data usage widget was the only thing I was using it for anyway.

I don't use Google to back up my data so I'm kinda stuck with Verizon Cloud for now. I think I'll wait a week or so and try another nightly and see how it goes then.
