Hello guys. I have a problem with the market. When i go to new applications or games, it says to force stop because of "android.vending.com". I have not rooted my phone. I even restored to the manufacturer settings which deleted all my apps, games, passwords etc, but nothing. The market got an update after restore and does again the same thing. Any suggestions? I searched on xda and google for this problem, but i did not get a straight answer what to do.
I always get force close whenever I try to scroll on the "Just in" list. Both Games and Applications. Can't find anything on the web about this problem
Exactly that. ONLY at just in apps or games. I don't know what else to do. Maybe we're lucky that is happening only at just in and not in the whole market as some users report
After moving to 351 update (15609)
my apps were washed away. (thats ok, as I had too many apps installed anyway!)
Now, I have apks of all the softwares I had before, and which were useful.
Some are paid ones, of which I do not have the installer apks
For the free apps, which I installed without logging on to market, I am not able to see any update menu!
and they are not showing up in My apps (part in market) either.
-the "market" app has changed too (from what it was before.)
Help please.
Thanks,
Sony.
Another issue!
I see some notifications stick around a lot longer! (irritating!)
"Battery full Please remove charger" stays on for like 15 seconds.
Bluetooth voice dialing works well,
Wifi works with much better success rate of connecting!
MODs: Please rename thread as "Problems with 351 (15609)" or something similar.
Sony.
Note: I have already tried the Clear Cache solution.

Damn: I tried to "Uninstall Updates for Market" in applications menu.
and now, the Market looks primitive!
whats wrong here!?
By uninstalling the market updates you went back to the oldest version of the market.
I can't help you with the apps, but it sounds as if you might need to flash your phone again.
Now new thing!
Today the phone got stuck at the lock screen (long time!)
then I restarted it through Power button long press.
Then the Dell logo kept coming again and again.. and it didnt boot~!
So, I removed the battery cover, and rebooted. then it was fine! (yikes)
I am on stock, no roots, no nothing yet!
Even the default update can cause problems?(Oh, I had not rebooted the phone since 2 days.. but I have gone longer before.. without the phone getting any slower!)
One thing is definitely mentionable though,
The battery life has been exceptional!!
Full charge in the morning (6 am - unplugged)
And, decent browsing (FB + gmail) + 40-50 mins of calls + games for 30-40 mins
and by 7 pm I still have 68% battery
That has been the case for past two days (since I upgraded 318 to 351)
@Strephon Alkhalikoi
you suggest, I flash the phone again?
hmm. Ok, will try that if nothing else works.
Any other suggestions on the table?
One more thing
I had used the Dell Backup and Restore > and used system settings restore too (in the options)
Just thought of putting it, as thats the only thing thats between the flash and the current problem. << (any relation?)
Help appreciated!
Sony
Re-flashed!
WEll,
i am officially going nuts!
I flashed the 351 update again.
everything nice and sweet..
But, hey!
Market is still behaving crazy!!
and App brain or anythin is also unable to do any good!
Guys! Please help!!
The Market is not showing apps, which I install off my SD card apks!!
whats wrong!?
Bonkers,
Sony
Anybody, yet?
Hey guys,
anybody ever faced such a problem?
Anybody know any solution ( that I havent mentioned in above posts? ).
Highly appreciate the help!
Sony.
When you install apks, they won't show in the market. You'll need to use an illegitimate market to show all installed apks (search google).

I did search google extensively!
My method of installing has a name: sideloading, (right?)
and, I see, that it 'does' show in the market for other guys!
and, Google search shows this as a sync-market issue!
people have some work arounds and all, but none is sure shot way of doing that.
I am looking for a solution.
Thanks,
Sony.
Are your free apps not showing up as installed either...
If you are using pirated apps they normally won't show up as installed, much less allow you to update without paying for them through the market.
Any free apps you use, you shouldn't install them from the sd card, rather install them directly from the market....

none of the apps are showing up (free + paid)
No pirated ones. Paid ones (only 2 of them, but, even those arent showing up!!)
About installing free apps from market-
well, that is one solution. but,
my question is exactly the corollary of that!
Why are sideloaded apps not showing up, when they did just finely show up, when I was on 318 !!?
What happens when you guys 'sideload' any app?
Let me know.
Thanks!
Sony.
P.S. People are discussing it on market.google.com/discussions as a 'market-sync' issue! as stated in prev post of mine.
*Sigh!*
Since google released their web-based market interface, the definitive list of apps on your phone (as shown in the market app) comes from the list on the website, which is the list of apps that were downloaded and installed through the market.
If you sideload something, it doesn't appear on this list.
In the past, pre- the web interface to the market, the definitive list was generated by the market app by scanning your phone. Not any more.
The only way now to get the apps to appear in the market app as installed is to install them through the market app (or market website).
Best workaround I know of is to use appbrain's app market. The app in that still scans your phone for the list, and can check for updates, and then uses the standard market to install the updates, so from then on the app is listed in the standard market.
So, basically, to get the apps listed in your standard market app's list, don't sideload.
Now, I just learned of a market backup program that you could have used beforehand, but that doesn't help much now :s.

I don't know if this is happening to all android users but me, my friends galaxy tab and htc wild fire have the same problem me.
Theres this one day my cousin accidentally deleted my angry birds season and Rio by holding the apps and drag it into the bin in the home screen. Then when I want to download it back from the market I can't find any angry birds game anymore. Not just angry birds, but sooner other games also missing like Last Stand, and many other games and apps missing. Plus at My Apps> it says no download from the android market when I clearly have nearly 300 apps installed. Its been occurring for about a week now.
and today, I checked again my android market and check my My Apps and finally all my apps shown but still I can't find angry birds. So I try to open/ update the apps from My Apps then it says The requested item could not be found.
wtf?

Check if angry birds is in system by using titanium back up, if there remove it..

This way, you only remove the icon from the home screen. Nothing is deleted at all. You seem a bit confused.
I also get some strange stuff coming up at times, like as soon as I select "install" on an item, there's a 50% chance I cant access the item again on the market :/
maybe its just not enabled in your current location
try an app called Market Enabler

Me too, but seems like it can be solved by clearing Market's data.
"Update all" and long-press are your friends
When I go to My Apps, and then try to view an app marked "Update available", I also get "The requested item could not be found".
"Update all" gets around this.
However, for "Manual Update" items you need to long-press on the app and from there you can "Update".
Isn't the Android Market app great
So after a few months a flashing I have a problem (not a big one but a bit irritating). I have a bunch of app's and know some of them don't get recognized by the Android Market. I tried forcing them with titanium backup but it didn't work.
I could go by each app one by one and checking if I have them on Market, if not I can delete and re-download. Any advice? I really have a lot of app's so I hope there is a simple solution

You're missing some information here. Which ROM do you use? Which apps? (Give examples). Do they show up in the market but say incompatible or do they not show at all? Which version of market do you use? What do you mean "Forcing" with titanium? As in fix market links? Uninstall and reinstall with titanium?
All I can say is if you use a different DPI setting than stock, some apps will not show up on the market or say they're outright incompatible. But there's too much info missing to say anything more...
I'm on CM nightly #116. Also I have Siyah kernel 2.0
As an example I always had Angry Birds, Angry Birds RIO and Angry Birds Seasons. Under "My App's" in the Android Market only the original Angry Birds was there. However if I went to Angry Birds RIO on the Android Market it would show that it is on my phone because I could update it or delete it. But it was never under "My App's". And another example is an App named Fontomizer SP. It wasn't under "My app's" But when I searched for it on the Android Market I could open or delete it.
The problem is that when it tries to autoupdate app's it skips those app's (and many others).
Just clear the Market data under 'Manage applications' and reboot your phone.
When you restart Market it will show the Market agreement again, but all your apps should now appear under 'My Apps'.
Didn't work. I wiped data just like you said. Accepted terms and conditions. But still same problem. I don't get it, it must be some kind of information that is linked with my google account. App's show up installed when I search for them. But under "My App's" there not there. Only deleting and re-installing seems to work. But that will take so long. Maybe I can try to clear data that has been saved to servers when I log in on Market on PC
Hmmm... do you have Market updates installed?
If so try uninstalling them (the 'Uninstall updates' button will be enabled) as well as clearing the data.
If not then I have no idea...
, i have a vibrant using ICS euphoria , kernel 3.1.10-kiss-v8
having many problems with google play and updating or downloading new apps. for example..
dolphin browser beta . searching this on google play and it will say "device not compatible" ,so i have to dl the apk. now i have dolphin and it works but will not update as on my phone it does not list dolphin browser in the list of apps in google play. but when i check on my computer online at google play it says i have dolphin browser.
this happens with other apps. how do i fix this and why is my phone not working with google play the way it should?
thanks
I had a similar problem with my phone. I changed the dpi to 240 and voila. Try it may be it can work out.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda app-developers app
Try try to use capital letters.
One problem with PlayStore is if the phone isn't 240dpi it might become incompatible. So you'll have to clear the PlayStore data and set it back to 240dpi.
Also developers can set their app to not be compatible with your phone. The way I get around it is to log into Play Store within a browser. When you download an app from the browser it will show you a list of all the Android devices that are associated with your gmail account, hopefully the app is compatible with one of that device. Then download it to that device, then back up that app to apk to send to your phone.
It's one of the annoying thing about Android right now.
thanks
thank you guys , that worked great and its something so simple. went to gmarket and i had so many apps to update , i had no idea
cheers
