Problem updating apps in market 2.3.6 - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently got a replacement Atrix 4G phone because my old one died. Was still under warranty so I got it for free of charge from AT&T.
My old phone was rooted, unlocked bootloader version 2.3.4 GB US AT&T.
My current replacement phone is unrooted with a locked bootloader. Basically its a stock ROM phone but with the latest GB version of 2.3.6.
The problem is my apps are NOT updating from the market. It detects updates but does not update. Gives me the "download unsuccessful" message on the app then goes back to the list of apps to be updated.
I tried the old trick with clearing cache/data in Market and Download Manager, still doesn't work.
Any advice? Tried searching for this issue in the forums, but nothing.

bump for help

Have you tried clearing your google information by clearing the data from the gmail app under managing applications?
Then you resign in and let everything resync by itself.

The only other thing I can think of is to unlock bootloader, root, and flash a ROM to see if that changes anything.

I prefer not to and I'd like to keep it at stock for the moment.
No other suggestions?

Bump for advice.
I could go back to the AT&T store and check with them but I rather fix it myself if its possible.

bump again

It shouldn't take a couple of days, it should update within about ten minutes, just make sure you have internet connection and rebooting may help

A location would help. If your location is listed someone local can try on their handset and then be able to tell you if the market is down or if you have a software issue.
Neumarkt Ontario ok for market and updates of apps.

Try moving next door. Seriously. I have that exact problem when I'm round my neighbour's house... market works, browsers work, but try to download an app and it just sticks at 2%... back home and it works fine! Oh, and it's not signal, as I have full bars in both houses.

I want to uninstall market, and reinstall it, but i can't find the apk anywhere!
Any idea where I can get one?
just add my personal note that mine worked on wifi but not 3g. turned out that the apn automatically received from my carrier (mobilicity) is the problem. i deleted the apn and created my own now market works normally on 3g too
cheers
mine as now updated to the new market and as yet no problems

[Q] MR2 Issue - Market

I have searched all over for answers to this, but can't seem to find anything definitive..
I updated to the leaked MR2 on Friday and am very happy with it except for the Android Market. After a successful update, I went to the Android Market to redownload my apps and noticed it was the the old-school market version. Thinking it would update itself, I didn't think much of it. It's now Sunday and it still hasn't updated itself. I'm not sure if this is directly related to the market version I have, but I can't find half of the apps I had prior to updating on the market. And when I go to install through the web-based market, it states that my phone is not supported.
I just wanted to know if I was the only one having this issue. I also wanted to know if there was a way to fix this?
**Running stock, non-rooted Thunderbolt.**
PS. Not that it matters to me, but I also noticed that none of the stock Verizon apps would work as well after updating.
Ok have u tried this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055876 just download and install should override the stock app good luck ..

I tried the clearing of cache and data of the market many times with many configurations (wifi, lte, 3g) with no luck. I will try the link above and see what happens.
I think it's a signature issue. I don't think the leak has the Verizon signatures and that's why nothing is updating and none of the Verizon apps work...
The link worked and updated the store! Thanks for that. I'm still having a compatibility issue though. I search for apps that I know are available for the TB and they don't show on the market. I go to download from online market and it states my phone isn't compatible.
Is there a possibility that the download I got was messed up?!
2.3.6 the latest?
I installed MR2 and my market is 2.3.6. I cannot find anywhere there is a newer version. Correct me if I am wrong. I did nothing special to get it updated to this version.

[Q] Market fix after flashing HKTW 2.3.4

Anyone know how to fix the Market app on the HKTW 2.3.4 image?
I cannot download a lot of my old apps since it thinks my carrier is Union Telephone Company instead of AT&T.
Market Enabler doesn't work.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Which apps can't you download?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App
Hulu Plus for one.
I just want my phone back on a U.S. carrier.
Country restrictions are blocking some apps.

That's how I got Barnacle while using GingerBlur.
Maybe change the ro.build.fingerprint line in the build.prop file to something else that works?
Do we know if Kennethpenn's Market in the build he has works? Maybe he can tell us what his build.prop says and we try that.
Or try Droid X Gingerbread build.prop line and manipulate that to see if it works.
hey i can help. its easy just download 4shared mobile and download hulu plus apk. and youll see it just download it from there. i had the same issue. just check the allow third party apps in settings.
i can also just email the apk, but you should be able to find it.

I've tried that. It doesn't work for me.
Finally fixed my market.
Did a fresh flash of 2.3.4, restored missing apps with titanium backup, restored system data, rebooted, and now we are back to the AT&T market.
WOOT!. Not going to downgrade to 1.83 now.

Factory reset. What does it do

Exactly? My phone is currently unlocked and rooted. What is going to happen if i do a factory reset (inside settings menu)? Will it unroot and un-unlock? Thanks in advance.
Sent from my GT-I9100M using XDA App
Nope, it'll just wipe user data (apps), settings and everything else. It'll put your phone just like the same as if you just took it out of the box.
It doesn't unroot nor unlock the phone.
So the CWM app will remain on the phone?
Say the phone is already reset, will i be able to find and install all my apps in the market after i log in to my google account?

Should do, and all contacts should be restored if you backup to google...
