[Q] big problem with Android Market - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have the following problem with Android Market. Some time ago I added a second google account to my phone. It's group account used by almost 30 people from studies.
I found out that every person is logged can remotely install any application on my phone without my knowledge using Android Market webpage. So I decided to delete the account from my phone to stop sync.
Unfortunately my phone is still available in Market options on this account and even worse - there is still posibility to remotely install apps on my device !!
How disconnect my phone from this unwanted account? In the market options I have not found such an option. Maybe there is some app or something to stop that?
My temprorary solution is turn off background data but I don't like that.
beg for help

[Q] Can't BUY apps on onboard market

Hy,
I can buy apps from Android Market on a PC and push it to my phone but I cannot directly pay on my SGS2.
I have already try several times and try to clear datas of Market app.
History :
I use a google app account (ie a google account but not finishing by gmail.com)
First setting with an operator stock ROM
Then flash to XXKG1 and set the phone with my email
Connect my google app account on checkout
Now I cannot buy on my phone but I can on PC and that can cause problem when I try to purchase some tegra games.
Warning it may be due to the fact that I use a google app.
Do anyone knows a workaround solution to transfer app from a google account to another? To add false devises on the web android market?
Thanks for help.and warning to user of google app acvounts.
After moving from XXKG1 to WWKH3 with full wipe, market is OK
After going on on restauring my datas, Android market still does not allow me to buy apps.
I have made a factory reset and installed step by step. The problem was on restaurong the accouts with Titanium backup. It seems it generate some problems with Android market at least for me!

[Q] New 10.1 Tab. Market Question

I got a 10.1 tab last night and it's great. I have one issue maybe you can help me with regarding the market and apps. My wife and I both have android phones and we are sharing the tablet. When I set it up and put in our email addys I went into the market and it was downloading all of the app we have on our phones. Cool feature if I'm replacing my phone, but not for a shared device that I don't need to be identical to our phones. Is there a way to not make it do this? The thought I have is to create a dummy account for both of us but then it seems like it will be weird to use gmail app and stuff like that.
Thanks!
wait what?
Are both you using the same Google Account?
No shared accounts. I put in both of our gmails under, settings then accounts. Now we can switch between the 2 accounts in the gmail app but I hate that the market downloaded each of our phone apps.
It's because there is a setting when you first ran the market or setup your gmail on the tablet. It's the option where you allow Google to download previously purchased apps off the market and because your phone uses the same account, Google assumes you want the same apps, if the app is compatible with tablet. Remember purchase can be paid or free apps. It won't sync again like that after the first time unless you decide to reformat and you don't uncheck that box again.

[Q] SGS2 Market Issue!

I sync with 3 gmail accounts on my Galaxy S2 but would only like to use one to access and purchase/download from the android marketplace. The issue is that the market app shows all three under settings>accounts. The first time I open the market I set the account to the one that I want but recently notice that it had automatically switched to another accounts and I had installed a bunch of apps using another account. This morning I it to the desired account and in the evening it had changed again. This is very weird and annoying. Is there a way that I can stop this or disable the marketplace on my other accounts?
BUMP!!! Please help. Someone.
I am also facing the same problem. On top of it, i am getting Connection Timed Out all the time in market. Can someone help please?

I've got the same problem, and so do others: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=4dfb99ab11950624&hl=en. I haven't tried it yet, but according to that page, a work-around is to open the market only using the application icon, not from the notification area.
Hey Thanks,
I just went through your link. Guess many ppl r facing the same issue. Hope it gets fixed soon.

Problem with Android Market after Factory Reset.

Hey all, I have stock,non-rooted,locked, OTA'd rezound.
I've tried everything in the general forums for this problem, so now I'll come here and ask to see if anyone has any other possible solutions.
I've done multiple factory resets today, and tried several different methods of re-adding my google account (which is a google apps for your domain account) so it's not @gmail.com but @mydomain.com
Everything works great, sync, gmail app, gtalk, youtube.. you name it. Great. Even the market place, for downloading 'free' apps.
As soon as I try and download an app I have to pay for I get a little window that pops up that says "Google sign-in You entered the wrong password or your account has changed. Please re-enter your password. Username [email protected]" and then just fails to accept my actual password. (i've tried changing my password a few times too!)
Here's everything I've tried:
1. Clearing the Market App Data and Cache.
2. FactoryReset: try and use the old market app before it gets updated.
3. Youtube account issue: disabled the youtube service on my google app domain, and factory reset- and tried again... no dice.
4. Tried putting on a real @gmail.com domain, and that works just fine. try and switch to @mydomain and it fails again.
I've done a factory-reset before every different style of attempt. I'm guessing something else is going on :-\
When I logon to the market through the web, I can purchase apps and they install without a problem! So it's something to do with the market app.
Anyway, just looking for any other ideas I may have overlooked. You're a pretty thorough community so I think I can trust you all would have something for me to try!
Before my factory-reset, everything worked fine with my google apps domain account.
TL;DR: My google apps domain account I normally use won't let me purchase apps on the marketplace anymore, it says the password has changed but all other google services work just fine!
I remember reading something way back when I first got the phone in late November about people having issues with the Market app. I never had an issue so I didn't pay much attention to it but you should be able to find a thread about it from back then.
Something about using a different apk? Or maybe deleting the app and redownloading it?
Sorry I don't have the actual answer but I thought I could at least point you in the right direction until someone else does.
EDIT: This may not be the same issue but one of the solutions that suggests to clear cache may help you. Can't hurt to try it out.

Are you using Google Two-Step login verification?
Did you accidentally leave yourself logged in to another computer, like at work, where somebody else might have gained access to your account?

Great questions:
No I've turned 2-step verification off.... what if I turn it on, and try and get a different password out of it? I'll give it a go.
Account is definitely not compromised. good to go here.
Break Through Achieved...
My Google Wallet account has been suspended, because when I changed my password I used the google domains administrator panel, and not my google account 'change password'. this made google think the administrator changed the password because the account was compromised.
google wallet has a lengthy but acceptable process for regaining access to your account.
I'll go update all the general forums with this if it works... thanks for all your patience.
Also, google.com/wallet shows a good explination of why all other apps work fine, and not purchases...
Google Wallet Account Reinstatement
Your Google Wallet account is currently suspended. The account was suspended as a precautionary measure to protect your payment information because Google detected that an administrator at your organization initiated a password reset for your email address. However, this suspension only affects your access to Google Wallet, and you should still have access to your other Google Apps services such as Gmail, Calendar, and Sites.
If you would like to reinstate Google Wallet on your Google Apps account, please contact us. You will be required to verify your identity to reinstate your Wallet account.
You may also wish to sign up for a new Google Wallet account using a personal e-mail address, rather than your Google Apps account. Creating a new Wallet account using a personal email address will reduce future suspensions of your Google Wallet account for password changes. If you don't have an alternative email address, you can create a new email address with Gmail for free.

I'm having the same problem (using google apps account, admin reset password, no purchasing market apps etc etc)
When I log in to google wallet, I see the message you posted above, with a link to click to contact google. However, this link just redirects endlessly to the same message.
Can you remember how you managed to get in contact with google to have the suspension lifted?
Thanks
Sul
Here's the link to the account reinstatement application form:

I had the same issue a few weeks ago. I just emailed Google wallet help support telling them the problem and by the next day I got a reply saying something like "we can now confirm that your Google wallet is now working and able to make purchases" Sure enough they fixed it and haven't had a problem since.

Where did you even email them? It's like an endless loop on their help center where you can't get to an actual contact form, just has to match one of their issues. I swear while I like a lot of google services, their support leaves very little to be desired.

[Q] My App List Missing After Account Change

Hello people,
I recently bought a Note 3 16GB, I let my brother open it for the first time, but apparently he entered his gmail account instead of mine. I thought I would just hard reset and start it properly since I didn't know what else he had done.
I did factory reset and proceeded, but as I found out, Play Store My Apps section kept loading forever.
Apparently since he entered his gmail account first, all apps are bound to his account, that means my list is going to be empty unless I update them each one by one, which I can't because I know from my recent phone (Note 2) there are apps that don't show up on phone screen(hidden services that occasionally require updates)
Is there a way to make my phones' apps show on my play store?
Is framework wipe what I need?
Is this what your looking for ?
