Ok, so my market is slow, won't load and won't download anything. It keeps freezing on the "loading" screen. Google needs to fix this Pos.. seriously
My real issue is, all of a sudden, all my pay apps are trying to make me buy them again. When I go under my apps, and select an app I already paid for.. instead of saying "install" it has the price next to it.
Anyone else?
Are you a custom rom user? E.g. cm7? And what phone?

Yea I'm using Myns for the EVO 3D.
it's doing it on other roms tho.. I figured the market is taking a dump, yet again.
Do you use a task killing app? Free more Ram and load again, or try downloading the market.apk separate from forums, they might have a slimmed one like in nightlies for wildfire, I had same problem until my market was skimmed to work faster

It's all good.
The main thing I'm worried about is why it's trying to make me purchase my apps all over again..
Mine tried that a few times, reboot to try to load the licenses again, works for me after new roms get installed it decides I should buy again and reboot fixes, but don't fastboot or you'll probably have the same problem.

I get the paused at 'Loading...' issue.
Force stop and clear data and you're good to go.

Done that numerous times, even turned airplane mode off/on like I used to have to do when in some AOSP roms. I restarted several times as well.
I think it will download the apps now, but, I'm not buying them again... that's my main issue
Try the old market. New market is just buggy and unstable.

Yeah I've read that the new Android market 3.2 is pretty buggy, I couldn't even buy an app on there. I think market version 3.1.6 works better or just go back to the old market.
Indeed, the new market is extremely slow. Especially on 3G.
I've had more problems installing beautiful widgets after a rom flash than I can shake a fist at. Every app I've paid for on my list installs fine, but when I click install on Beautiful Widgets it just sits there, loading... All I do now is ignore it and go play angry birds or watch youtube and try again in 5 minutes, it'll work sooner or later > >
After I wrote this I made a hard backup of BW so I don't have to download it from the market anymore
ya the new market has a lot of bugs. The way I fix this problem is just to force close the market app. It usually fixes that problem. If it is still there after force close, clear data on the market app and try again. Hope that helps.

Randomly my Android Market started acting up with regards to downloading apps. I can browse through and search apps just fine but when I click Install to start downloading an app it just hangs on 'Starting download...' on and off wifi.
I researched the problem and found remedies of starting gtalk and clearing the download manager cache, all of which were ineffective (obviously otherwise I wouldn't be posting this!). The only thing that was temporarily effective was re-flashing the stock firmware with odin. Initially I could download apps after flashing with odin but after letting the phone sit for a few minutes I could no longer download apps :-(.
On a perhaps related note I do recieve random notifications about unsuccessful downloads while I'm not even using my phone of applications that I've never even attempted to download..
Yeah I get the same issues with mine on the stock rom.i find that if I reset my wifi connection it starts to work again. Just a thought.

Ineffective for me :-(.
Anybody ?
Playing around with it a lil more if I toggle the wifi then restart the download it generally starts workimg again. Just out of curiosity are you in a poor reception area when this happens?

Had this issue on my G1 with CM6. Go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications. Scroll to market, click, clear cache. Let me know if this works as well.

Nope, I either have great EDGE or HSDPA service.
Before anyone asks, all other web based apps that I can use at this point (browser mostly) work just fine.
My best guess is that it is just buggy atm, it would seem that it has a hard time deciding which method to use to download. For me at least choosing between wifi and edge/3g.

You can uninstall the market from your manage apps/applications without any harm. Won't remove the app, but will clear all the market data stored on your phone. You just accept the tos again when you open the market and you're going. Hope this helps

I am having problems downloading as well after I used system apps removal I only removed minor apps nothing system related. When I reboot phone I receive force close message and dumploader message *#9900#, any help would be much appreciated.

It seems to freeze up a lot. I will select apps and they do nothing, same with downloads from the market. They just hang at showing them as downloading.
I use SPB Shell and sometimes when it does this it will also stick between pages rather than just flinging to the next it will actually just stop in between pages until you continue to scroll though.
When I select links to open, it does nothing until I actually open the browser. I have only had the phone for a few days and it worked fine, now its doing all these weird things.
Anyone got any suggestions or ideas, let me know otherwise I'm afraid I may be taking it back...
Something may be wrong with the phone. I haven't experienced none of that. Even out the box. Actually its been so fast for me that if I experience the littlest bit of lag it drives me nuts. Might be hard ware related.

LOL dude you have the data guard enabled. There is a setting in their that holds downloads and other things in a queue until you are using WiFi in order to save battery. Just disable that and you'll be on your way And the SPB Mobile Shell problem is probably a problem with the app. Contact the developer and tell them about it. There aren't many nVidia Tegra 2 phones out there so it's not very likely they have done much testing on the architecture. Also, what kind of links are you talking about? Like a link you receive in a text message?

I used to have the same problem with apps not responding after pressing. I was using adw launcher I reverted back to stock and everything is good now. Emailed the developer about the compatability and waiting for an answer but the photon is good otherwise
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Yeah it really sounds like you have Data Saver enabled which is located under Battery & data manager in the phone settings. If not you may want to exchange the phone as faulty. I have a lot of issues which my Photon: stuttering during music playback, random reboots (twice in 2 weeks so far), and feedback when using the audio out (buzzing / static). These seem to be common problems but the performance issues you are mentioning do not seem normal from what I have read in these forums.

You would be correct. Although i went from the Hero to an LG Optimus S, and now the Photon.
No problems like that with SPB Shell here. Check the data saver mode. You can also try changing the vm heap to 48 or 64. Mine is on 64 but never had an issue with the stock setting either.
Update...
It does appear that it was SPB Shell which sucks because I was really liking it. I will send a message to the dev and see what happens. The funny thing is that is was working great the first few days that I was using it and then started acting up which was why I didn't thing it was SPB

How do you get it that high? I am using VM Heap Tool and the highest it will let me check is 48.
It's not data saver. Or it shouldn't be. It's an Android flaw.
I've had an Incredible, Thunderbolt and then Photon. Which means I've used a few Android phones over a couple of networks (more if you consider the 4G's as their own networks).
99% of the time my phones work fine. Every so often it will stall downloading an app, or an email will just sit on sending for a longggg time. Unless I am recreating the same conditions over three phones and two networks I think this just happens every once and a while.

I'm glad you found the issue, this right here always tells me it was something you installed that caused the problem. When it worked fine out of the box and then....
Just watch what you install, install one app at a time and see how it flows for awhile after each app. Yes, it may take awhile to get all your apps on but you will know what apps are causing you issues! Like a previous poster said, there aren't many T2 phones, so just be careful what you install!
Glad you found the problem!

Is it just me or does the new Android Market suck. Don't mind the addition of content but the thing is just slow now. Once it loads, trying to go to my apps or other screens brings up the "Loading..." prompt and it seems to sit there forever. Never had this problem on the old one.
Plus, sometimes it will tell me apps need to be updated, I will go click on them, and no update button. Just "Open" and "Uninstall"?? It does it opposite too. Some apps will have an update but it won't tell me. If I go look at the app it won't show that an update is available until I click on it. Then sometimes I have to update the thing twice just to get it to take.
Granted this could be an issue with Juggs update.zip file, Titanium, or something else but I'll put my money on the Market app.
I'm runninga completely stock MoPho and I get the same market "false" updates. I think the MoPho market needs a serious update. I'm almost to the point where I'll only use appbrain. Hopefully this is on their long list of things to fix!
I experience the same issues, it's the app.
Yes
..i downloaded market older version but it always update back to the current version.....suks
Moto photon
The same thing happens on all android phones, not just the photon.
Just go into settings and manage apps and uninstall the update. If your rooted you can delete the market updater.apk

Happens to me daily. I just click update all and that solves the problem fora day or so
Yes new market is junk... i got an apk off 4shared and permanently replaced it via root explorer..Old market works like a champ loads fast way better

Factory reset usually fixes it but um try finding an apk to the old market and pushing it to /system/app. Maybe thatll help

clearing cache works for me but its a pita. With the amount of complaints going on you would think it'd be fixed by now. At least I can see all my apps.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I've found that uninstalling updates from the application manager fixes all of my 3.1.5 woes. It will eventually update back to current release, but until the market is updated again, this is the best fix i've found.
Also, if you have more than one GMail account on your phone, go to 'my apps' and make sure you've got your main acct. set as the market acct.

same here. I clear it all the time and the uncheck admob, just because. My market hangs all the time and sometimes will not show my apps installed.
Has this been strictly on wifi? I'm having the same symptoms in the market but I've narrowed it down to my wifi being garbage and not holding a connection for any app.
I'm still having the problem today - and on the Sprint network, not WiFi. Other apps work fine, just Market sucks.
Same issue here. Market hangs & won't update apps sometimes. Other times shows an update available but there won't be. Really annoying.
Yep, I've been having market issues since the new market. It really is a pain.
The new market blows chunks, I pushed the old one back. It works well and shows what it needs to show.
I installed the new 3.2.0 market on my Flyer (gotta have root, and the Photon not rooted(yet)). And I haven't had a single problem. It's pretty freakin' sweet. I have I'll post the link in a sec...

Same here. To fix my problem, I used titanium backup to freeze the marketupdater.apk and then uninstalled the market updates from the applications menu. Now I am on the old market and all is well. I am wondering if the new market (version 3.2) fixes all these problems??
It's an EVO 4G LTE, got it when it first came out, stock. No root or anything, never even tried with this phone. Recently it's been refusing to make phone calls. I click someones name to call, the phone freezes for a few seconds or nothing happens. I get the com.android.phone has crashed messaged a lot. Also happens to my messaging app, GO SMS Pro, which crashes pretty frequently as well. What do I do?

Sounds like a lack of free memory to me... Do you have a lot of apps installed? I've never had any use for Go apps because they use a ton of memory and cause lag.
Your best bet is to open the task manager app to see what apps are using the most memory and then uninstall them.
The other alternatives are to do a factory reset to wipe your phone, or better yet, root and install a custom Rom with better memory use (meanrom is my suggestion but there are plenty of options)

If that was the case, wouldn't I not experience these problems after immediately force closing everything? Because the problem persists and is pretty random of when it shows up and doesn't.
When u install apps u give them certain permissions....so when u stop the app it could start back up

You said your phone has been refusing to make phone calls.
Perhaps if you treated your phone better it might do what you ask of it.
If it refuses any more, hard reset it and show it whos boss.
If it clears up then you know right there you had a bad app or a memory issue..
