Market web installs from "market android com" never start. ('m not allowed to post links)
Under "My Devices" in the settings page it shows my Atrix, It has a "Registered on" date (today) but it doesn't have a "Last Used" date (it shows a dash).
I have followed all the suggestions on the help page. (log in, log out)
My Market App version is 2.3.2.
Google Talk works. The Market App works. Clearing Data and Cache for the Market doesn't help any.
I'm signed in with a regular Google account. (not an apps account)
Any suggestions?
This might sound obvious, but have you tried restarting it or resetting it?
Yep. Lots of restarts.
Does the market work on anyone else's Atrix or is it just me?
I read somewhere that if you open Google Talk and sign out then sign back in, it should get the market web installs working because of a communication problem.

Yeah, that's on the help page. Didn't work.
Empty market cache, and uninstall market upgrades (if any). Had the same problem before with other phones, I do not think this is atrix specific.
Getting the market to upgrade afterwards required some manual steps as well. Too lazy to look that up now though, just google it.

I emptied the cache and uninstalled updates. On the first launch I got the old market, on the second launch it had upgraded back to the new one. I also tried a reboot. Still doesn't work. Good idea though, thanks.
Bump! Any fixes for this? I'm having the same issues. The Market web store even lists my phone being last used on Feb 25 (the last day it was pushing app downloads from my computer). However, when I download apps from my phone, it shows up on my account online.

I thought I was having this same problem, but I was in battery saver mode and had auto-sync disabled. After re-enabling it, the downloads just began automatically.
I had the same issues at first and tried all th above fixes and the ones on the google help page. nothing worked at first. i waited a few hours and tried downloading again and everything worked fine. i can't really explain how but it just started working.
I have had this problem for 5 days =/ Now I just chrome to phone the link and open it with market =/ I have done all the above, contacted Google and posted at Motorola Site. Nothing works.
Darn I am having the same issue. Just got my Atrix an hour or two ago...so we will see what happens. I'll try and keep you updated.
Edit: Mine just started working, so I don't know what the problem with yours is. Hope you get it worked out.
I have same problem here with my Hd2 DFT android Rom maket works fine but it never start downloading any apps :/ please some help ??!!
Do you have apps/the market to update only on wifi? And you haven't opened the apps to have them generate an, "I'm here", marker for the market to send you stuff, when you were hooked up to wifi?
I wondered the same thing...
Good news guys Google talk was not working for me so I re flashed my phone and reconfigure it now Google talk work and market too I don't know if it will works for you but for me it working great now hope it help a bit

Port 5228
This may not help everyone, but I ran into this same problem.
Each day, my downloads weren't sent to my phone and my gmail wasn't pushing consistently, but by the time I got home, everything seemed to be working again. I noticed that I was also unable to log into google talk on my office's wifi (which seems to be the key to getting everything else to work). A coworker with a samsung android phone was having the same problem.
We worked with our network administrator to unblock certain ports on the wifi firewall. We finally resolved this issue by opening port 5228. Now everything is pushing correctly. See if this port is blocked on your wifi.
The weird thing that kept throwing me off is that even if I switched off wifi and used ATT, it was still having problems for a period of time.
So i have been googling like a mad man and apparently can't find the apk to the new market with the Music tab and new features.
Is it still too new to have been uploaded yet?
Does anyone know where its available?

What's the build number
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I would appreciate an upload of the newest apk as well. Don't know the build number but I'm pretty sure the OP is looking for the apk with the new music section built in (as am I)! Google should be pushing it out to all phones automatically starting from a bit ago up until possibly a few days from now so some of us are antsy and don't like the wait
edit:
Sorry for the repeat I just noticed that the first poster already stated he wants the version with the music tab, my bad!
I don't think google pushed the market apk yet

Here's a better question, what happened to the App "old market"?
I don't need it now (freezing the market updater with TiBu), but I will need it down the road whenever ICS comes out for this or other phones...

Well im running the new market. Updated itself. Im running a stock rom for now though. So could be that. Was 3.0.8 before and i reckon it is 3.11.1 (without looking)
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
i came here looking too. mine has not updated. on aura
i had it on stock, flashed to a number of custom roms, (cm7, alien and homebase) none of them had the newer one.
there isn't much of a difference despite the app font being smaller. few speed tweaks maybe?!?!
I have it, I will upload it to this thread in a couple of hours

So a few moments ago I just got the new market update. In order to get the new market I had to do a few other steps. I don't know if it will work for you, but it seemed "timely".
I noticed that Google Music had an update so I tried to install it but I got some kind of error. I was running the last leaked version (4.0.1).
1. I opened Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Music and cleared out data and uninstalled it.
2. I then opened up the Market and installed the newest Google Music (4.0.9) and set that up.
3. I then re-opened the Market and noticed that some of my applications had broken market links. Some were reported as not being installed, yet they were.
4. I then re-opened Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Market and cleared out data then uninstalled updates.
5. I waited a few minutes then reopened the Market and accepted the TOS and there it was, the new Market (3.3.11) with the new Music tile and all.
Maybe this will work for others. Can't hurt to try.
I downloaded and installed 3.3.11 from a thread here in the "themes and apps" section a couple of weeks ago. Hardly new ... link

This worked for me. Thanks!
mine updated automatically overnight.
I've been on 3.3.11 since the day it was leaked. Last night it updated automatically to include the music tab after doing a search and purchasing an album.
I restored some apps after installing tasks latest rom, by the way this has NOTHING to do with his rom. Anyway a few apps have been attached to the market that I bought from other sites. I cannot remove them, I have tried everything, uninstalling them and the market, re installing the apps then the market, using tb to install backup apps without data and then the market without data, clearing all caches for apps and market, and whole cache with cwr. If i use tb to detach app from market, then open the market and press my apps they are gone, but as soon as the list refreshes they are back :-(. This isn't a major problem, just very annoying.
Any help would be great
Also on my stock rom i have the same problem, the apps must be locked in to my market account or somthing
Over 80 views and no reply.....lol
Over 150 now lol :-O has nobody got any ideas?
I'm bumping this cause I'm having the same issue. I got apparatus from Amazon months ago, but it no longer receives updates. Since it's one of the 10 cent apps today I've tried installing it from the market. I'm seeing a same issue as the OP. I've uninstalled, detached from the market etc.. but when I go into the Android market it's still marked purchased. Any ideas?
I have the same issue...it seems you have to be on the ROM that the app was initially linked to the market. I have gotten a few apps to detach, but only the ones that I installed on my current ROM.
I tried going back to previous ROMs for the other apps but it wouldn't work.
Really dumb...the only actual solution is to make another account for purchasing apps.
It happened to me all on the same rom, still can not detach them on any rom. It is more the annoying now as all the apps coming on for 0.10, I can't buy them cos if I uninstall them they still show as purchased but can't download them cos the market finds no license. Getting annoying now. My phone doesen't show them as purchased as I use the same account on phone and tab, my phone just shows the apps I actually purchased on the market.
This app has this feature:

It's also made by a fellow Greek, so you're supporting our economy by buying it

Lol if you had read my op you wouldn't have wasted time posting that link.
As I said, tb does not work. And all these months later I still have the problem. Never found a solution. Just gave up and learned to live with it. Unfortunely the only way of updating them apps is downloading pirated copies, I don't care if that is wrong cos I payed for the apps and games so am entitled to the updates lol
First of all, my Photon is rooted and I used a couple of the updates from the photon android development forums.
It is getting to where there are just too many market apps that I can not download. Some come up as not compatable (while I'm 100% sure they are compatable) and others just straight up don't show. It gets real interesting when I go to the android market on the web and try to get the apps.
The android market thinks that I have 2 Moto photons. One of the 2 photons, it will in fact allow me to send some of these incompatable apps to and the one that google SEES me on is "not compatable". I guess the market thinks my phone became a new phone when I did one of the updates. But yet this new photon is not compatable with many apps.
I was using my Acer Iconia tab to help me get some of these apps to my Photon, especially some of the ones I purchased. But now, I have 2 Iconia tabs too (even though the second one is again, the same device.)
Is there anything I can do? I loved Android since the day it came out. But it's getting to where I almost don't want it. I need an outlet to get apps but I don't want to ask people to upload apks. I know about the amazon market but not every app is there.
Is this a brand based problem? Cause though I love the Photon, I would switch in a minute if this wasn't the case. But it's also happening on my Iconia tab and it's happening more and more and one thing I just won't do is start asking if anyone has apks.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OK, this will take me a minute (if you want a real explantion, or just skip to bottom where I talk about App Brain). I am sorta like you, I'm well over 100 Apps and use SPB 3D Shell to keep them orgainzed.
As for usage:
My Music
My Radio
Pandora
YouTube
Work Adobe
Work Excel
Work PPP
Adobe (Work, IBM, Personal)
10 years of tax returns
Military Documents
Collget transcripts
High School Documents
Stocks
Investments...............
I use my phones and like to keep them tight. I had and Evo and co-worker turned me on to App Brain.When I got Photon, I was in your position. I went to Market and more or less, installed everything I got individually.
You Sync App Brain, and when you get new phone, like I just did, tell it to put it all back (You still have to go to SPB 3D Shell and orgainze it, but it give you a start!)
Want more protection? Root it and get Titaniaum Backup, paid version!!! Backup all your crap each monday at 3:00AM (you know my schedule now), hook the phone up to computer as HD and move backup to your computer or USB drive (its not small!). If something ever happens to your phone, get titaniaum from market and use THAT backup to restore. The good thing about the paid version, not only will it put your app's back, it puts them back with the last configuration!!! Done!!!
Thank you for responding. But I do not believe that this helps. I already use Titanium Backup of course. But App Brain is just a market browser that still ultimately takes you to the market to download apps does it not? And the market will still list them as incompatable.
This is not going to let me download new versions of, for example, Swiftkey X, LCD Density, and even the ChaCha app. I would have to go find a friend who has a phone that's listed as compatible (even though the Photon IS compatible) and then back it up and transfer it. This makes for licensing problems for apps that I have purchased and I'm certain are compatable.
Because I can get many apps but there are many that I can not get, there is something that many developers do that apparently makes it compable with SOME Motorola Photons as far as the market goes. This is why I could easily download Titanium Backup but I can not download SwiftKey X which I paid for even though it IS compatable.
Can anybody help? I need a way to get apps that are compatible to the photon like swiftkey x onto my photon and the ability to keep them UPDATED. What I do not want is a way to keep them backed up, I already have that. I will switch phone brands if I need to but I absolutely require a phone or a fix for this phone on which this problem does not exist. Otherwise, it's useless to me as apps are updated often sometimes and I want those updates without running onto the net and asking people to please post an apk. Please reply if you have a solution. I am going to scream if I see that banner that says this app is not compatable with your phone again when market.android.com will send it to my older photon (which does not exist by the way. The market just recognizes my photon as a second photon after an update I did from the developer forums). Grrr, don't even want my photon now that the droid razor is out.
have you tried going into manage applications and clearing the data and cache from market. I had some problems with apps that were bought on both amazon and google and this allowed the apps to update from google.
Yes. I have cleared data from the market under manage applications. This does not do it. There are still apps that the android market refuses to let me install. Any such apps do not have an install or download button. Instead, there is just that banner on the very top that says "Your device is not compatible with this item." for many apps ever since I installed one of the updates and since then, I have 2 Photons listed when I look online. One of them, the android market will send these "incompatible apps" to and the other, it won't. Unfortunately, the device that android market will send the apps to is the same device as the one that the market sees as incompatible. It's like after one of the updates, the market reregistered my phone as a different phone. Same thing happened with my Iconia tab.
Does anybody have any ideas?

You try going online and deleting the phones from your google account then log back into the app market and download a simple app so it can register
I've tried. As far as I know, you can't delete devices from your account on the market. You can only hide them from showing up on the menus. But yes, I've done that. It doesn't help.
never mind, i see now'
So is there anything that can be done?
First of all what ROM are you on, what mods(build.prop), and have you wiped google services data?

Oh thank you thank you thank you! (and thank clicked as well!) It was awesome of you to find that. Just to reiterate in case somebody else finds themselves having the same problem, to reiterate so it might come up in a google search for someone:
If you have a Motorola Photon (or many other phones), and over time, you notice that something isn't right with the market and some apps that you always ran are suddenly not compatible any more and perhaps the Android market sees you having several phones, if you changed your screen density with a program such as LCD Density Changer, the android market now will see you coming in with a different phone. For example, according to the Android market, I have a Moto Photon with a density of 240 and a Moto Photon with a density of 280. Perhaps because of the criteria that some app makers chose, some of their apps (like Messagease for instance) may be compatible with a Photon with a density of 240 but not a Photon with the density of 280 (even though they do in fact work just fine).
So, the solution is this. Change your density if you like. But, to get those programs that may become "incompatible", switch the density back to the way that it was out of the box.
Thank you very much for finding this information! It helped a lot!
Glad to help
Some handsome moderator told me to post this here.
Well, im new in this android thing... I am confused with several things:
- Im annoyed for when you "close" something, yet it is on the list when you click on the button with the "windows". I went to developer tools and selected "dont keep activities" yet they are still there. Do i have to do any more thing or I have to download an app for this? I mean i did this:
http://i.imgur.com/qCfk7hd.png
- App updates. I had the apps that came with the android i installed, google,youtube, chrome, etc. Google play store was set to auto update, yet it wasnt updating at all. I had to go to app store to "google services app", which it said it was already installed and the button said "update", which I did. I had to do the same with the youtube and chrome apps. Is there any way i can update all of them together? I suppose its like this because its the first time... But i dont want to go one by one. how can i do this?
- App updates 2. I did the update in google and start downloading 36MB. Tablet shut downs screen... I turn it on again and the app said no more that it was downloading. It just couldnt download those 36MB in those seconds. Same happened with youtube, chrome and adblock.
I find all of these downloads and apps things very confusing. i can never be sure that they are downloading or not, or i dont have any control to stop the downloads when I want. For example in my fathers phone there is almost always downloading one thing called "spanish woman" for google maps. Its ALWAYS downloading. I tried to set the mobile internet connection and wifi off yet it stills downloads.
Now... With smartphone... I have a Galaxy S I9001 and want to unlock it... Im trying the Galaxy S unlocked but it says that there are problems with busybox all the time, but busy box ins installed, with the root. I have cyanogen mod 12.1 from this page, maybe is that? Is there anything I can do to unlocking it without paying to get a code?
Thanks you very much
