Whenever I go to market then downloads it says "server error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen." The internet browser works. I could install apps, but for some reason it is not working. Is this happening to anyone else, and is there a fix to this?
ahhh same thing here... wtf is going on suddenly? i've tried factory reset, ive tried restoring from titanium backup... no luck!
UPDATE: seems to be having to others as well. few topics on android support forums as well. From older topics, seems like this happens when they're updating the market, so perhaps thats what it is now
I can download and sync with appbrain fine, but I'm getting that error on the download page also

Same thing happend to me couple days ago try this...
Go to "settings"
then "Applications"
then "Manage applications"
then "Market"
Then click on uninstall updates
mine worked again.
I have the bug with the new market where by if I press the update button to update the app, it gets stuck on this white screen with the loading circle and it just stays there. This occasionally happens to new apps I want to install as well.
I know solutions include clearing market app data, deleting the Android folder from sdcard, and wiping dalvik cache, but none of them work permanently.
Any ideas?

Yes, I think many of us have this problem since the new market 3.x.x.
Slow solution is just retry again another time or another day, it will be no problem.
Quick solution is just uninstall the app and then install again via market.
same problem here too, earlier I thought that since I'm in China there might be a few apps that won't have update support here. But it actually started since the new market update.
In fact, in market, it's just showing 4-5 apps that need to be updated for me, but if I see in Appbrain, it shows 47 apps, but can't get an update from either way.
I found that most of the time going into settings->applications->market->then removing user data seemed to clear the history and I could update that program in market again.
Yup ive done all of the suggestions above! In fact ive done it so many times and no matter what it still goes back to being bugged. Uninstalling updates does help bring back the old market for the time being, but it auto updates back to the new one in no time.
I wonder if the new ICS market solves any of this.
clear the data (cache) for market and appbrain
Your not alone,I get this too not sure if it will be fixed anytime soon. I had it where I updated an app twice in one day! Stupid market!

Hello everyone!
I first reported it here, I've come to realize that this issue affects users of various roms, so I thought I'd ask here.
When going into the market, "my apps" list is empty, since yesterday.
The things I've tried include:
restarting
ticking and unticking "unknown sources"
cleaning market cache and data
upgrading and downgrading the market app
installing free and paid apps
removing and reinstalling the market itself
freezing and unfreezing the market using TB
running "market doctor" from TB
uninstalling non-market apps
I googled and searched this forum quite a bit, but there seems to be no recent feedback on such an issue, and the suggested methods don't work.
Demonstration image attached, courtesy of marvi0. This is from the latest market app. When using 3.1.5 or earlier, the page is just blank.
This seems to be a cross-rom issue, as I am using HyperDroid-Androidmeda-v2.8.7 and users reported it happening with Criskelo's ROM and Pulser's ROM as well. So far, 5 reports were collected.
A strange behavior I've noticed is that following a restart, while the storages are being scanned, I was able to briefly access the list. After 2 seconds, it refreshes into the blank again. Being not the only one with this issue, I'd deduct it's not device-specific.
I'd be glad to provide more details, and appreciate any input on this issue.
Check which gmail account the market is linked to, if you are using more than 1 account.

I only use one account, always. Forgot to mention
Also, the website (market.android.com) is fine and functioning, displaying all of my apps. The problem is... I can't check for updates now.

I have the same issue since last night. I even restored a nandroid backup (when I didn't have that issue) and problem perssisted. I am using Criskelo v75 ROM. I was told by Android Market "support" that there is nothing to do since I don't have the stock ROM (but problem is in the cloud: it is a Google problem!). So I will flash the stock ROM and I will send the screenshots to that support guy, he will work then or he will say "I don't wanna work so I will do like in your last message: nothing at all"...

I believe the same. It can't be rom-related, because users of different roms report this. I see that too many users face this...

Ok, maybe is a problem with the current account because I did full wipe (dalvik cache, cache and data), I installed one app from Market and... this app (and other integrated in the ROM appeared in "My apps"!!!! :O. I restored my nandroid backup but problem perssisted. I will unlink my Google account from my phone and I will link it again: maybe this is the solution.

Had no doubt that a full wipe will solve this, but the trick is pinpointing the actual problem...
Currently I am uninstalling everything (all user apps) from my device using the batch option in TB. I'll keep you posted!
EDIT:
It obviously helped. Uninstalling everything, then redownloading almost anything I had on my device. Currently I am downloading, this will be followed by restoring the data using TB. I have a long evening ahead of me
I'll try to pinpoint the exact app/place the error takes place.
I have had exactly the same problem, and over the last two days have tried absolutely every possible solution. I have tried three different market versions, wiping cache, data, uninstalling apps, restoring previously working back ups, The closest I came to a fix was to delete all back ups in Titanium back up, then factory reset, wipe cache, and dalvik, in Cwm, then reboot and re sign into Google account installing all my apps through the now working market.
However on doing another back up in TB and checking the market again I have the same message in "my apps " applications and games owned by this account will appear here soon!,
They never do! I am currently running latest Cyanogen nightly with latest Siyah kernel, I have also tried with cyan kernel.
Searching around on Google this does appear to be a problem for many other android users, and I suspect the fault lies with Google, However any possible solutions would be appreciated, This has took over my life for two days!
It happens to me too. In fact i've seen that i have several accounts bounded to the market (menu >> accounts) and one has no applications ! check this and select all accounts...

I have only one account on Google, and it is already pre selected when I press menu, accounts, I have no other option and selecting my highlighted account just re confirms. And closes dialogue box.
Don't know if this will work as I have never had the issue, but have you tried any of the market enabler hacks / apps?
Might be worth a try?

I haven't tried that, will give it a whirl, the strange thing is that the market functions okay except for My apps being blank, Thanks for the suggestion.

I did. No go.
I eventually solved it by deleting everything I had, redownloading everything again and restoring the data manually. Wasted evening

I haven't done anything else finally but uninstalling some apps (I had over 300 and I have 210 now haha) and after that apps appear in "My apps" :O. Amazing!!! I don't understand anything at all.
Good luck, guys!

Had any apps that weren't installed from the market? E.g. manual APK installation, linked apps from Amazon Appstore, apps from alternative markets and such. Maybe it was triggered by a specific app...
Same problem, I think its related to the new market.

Yes I do have apps from other markets, but I have "fixed this" once by wiping all data,re signing into market, restoring market apps there, then restoring all remaining other apps through TB, at this point market and My apps was working okay, However on creating a new back up in TB this problem re occurred.
As a footnote updates can be found and performed via the market, using Appbrain. I am at the point I have tried all possible solutions and firmly believe the fault lies with Google.
my issue was slightly different. I have 72 apps installed but in Market only 30 of them where visible since yesterday and one app (Antutu) shown to be updated - but even the update for antutu was not possible. Therefore I uninstalled Antutu und installed it again and surprising in the Market are now all 72 apps visible again.
So it seems some apps which have to be updatet brake the Market and do not show the app list or just partially.

I uninstalled 92 apps: I can't write by hand all those apps here! hahaha. But I will answer your questions: I had (and I still have some) manual APKs installations, I haven't ever had any app from a different Market. I had Market apps too.
A guy in a spanish forum (http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?p=3098961 (I started that thread) told that it happens with no official ROMs for the device and/or different DPI. I mean: if you have an HTC Legend with Cyanogenmod 7 your phone will be identified as a Nexus (I think), but your Legend DPI is lower than the Nexus DPI. Google ban those devices in the Market. But it doesn't make sese since I haven't installed a different ROM or changing the DPI in my Samsung Galaxy S!!!!
I hope this helps.
PS: all the affected users should write to Google in order to open a ticket and force them to work on it, instead of claiming about it in forums as I did hahaha (but I wrote to Google too )
This is now widely reported for all Android devices, and has an open issue on the Android Market Forum. Google is "aware and working on it".
For those who got their list back, don't be surprised if it goes away again, and don't fight with it - it's not you, it's them
Your market web library should still list all your apps, and I'm using AppBrain to get update notifications until they get it figured out.
Anyone seeing apps randomly uninstalling? I've noticed it in the past few weeks since I did a reset. The shortcut icon will just be the green Android one, and it says the app has been uninstalled. The App Store says it's still installed though, so I have to uninstall manually, then reinstall. Anyone know what's going on??

yes i have the same issue with NBA game time app...i reinstalled about couple times, and it just got uninstalled on its own...but just that one app, never had any problems with any others
Some of my apps randomly disappear and then they come back.
Was the apps in question ever moved to the sdcard?
Wait....I sent this with Tapatalk?
Not for me. All my apps are on my phone itself.
It's been doing that to me too. Usually when im in gprs-land when i can't download it again. Very annoying.
Mine did it to, but only when I had an excessive amount of apps installed

The same happened to my six or seven apps. All of them were installed inside the phone itself and never moved to the ext_sd_card.
However I noticed, this has been happening to the apps what were installed manually from .apk, in other words not through the Android Market..
Again for the past five days what I am running pretty much debloated ICS - nothing like this happens to my operational environment...
I have the T-Mobile HTC One (M7 I believe). It's stock, not rooted and no mods made to it at all.
It's running Android 4.4.3, Sense 6.0, Build 6.10.531.10, Kernal 3.4.10-g40b 189c.
Several days ago, several app services started crashing: com.htc.sense.ime and google app (process gapps) has stopped are the two most frequent, with the latter displaying it's message three times in succession (i.e. after tapping OK, it reappears). Also YouTube and "Get started" frequently crash.
Performing a Google search, I have tried the most common "fixes" posted: clearing the cache for many apps, disabling then re-enabling download manager, reset app preferences, etc.
The issue persists. One poster suggested uninstalling all updates to the play store, which I did, but now I have no play store at all! I have com.android.vendingAssetBrowserAct..., which, when I tap it opens "Google Play", which says, "No Connection". I have no idea how to fix that. And it did not fix my issue anyway!
Today I checked for updates and discovered the Lolipop update (had check for updates turned off).The install on that fails too (I thought maybe it would allow me to install the Play Store).
So I'm leaning on resetting the phone and probably trying that update to Lolipop, but I'm hoping someone might have another suggestion I haven't yet found.
Thanks.
(Edit) Since originally posting this, Google Play Store has apparently re-installed itself (ver. 5.4.12). I had thought perhaps the Lolipop update was failing to install because it needed this app installed, but it's still failing to install despite Play Store now being there.

OK, since it's been about 24 hours and no responses, I'm going to assume this is one of those weird issues that could potentially be any app or service causing it. I have no idea which were the last apps or updates installed, especially since I had to get Google Play Store reinstalled and there apparently is no history to check.
I have not found anything more on the web either. Now I'll try troubleshooting why the system update to Lollipop fails. Later if I'm still not successful, I'll try a factory reset. Dang, this phone has been working great for two years. Weird this is happening!
So the phone has been working fine (mostly). Last night however, an hour or two after I connected it to a charger, I noticed the charge light was out. I tried to wake it and it was dead. Can't reboot, can't turn on.
Left it off the charger all night, but today it's still dead. Connecting to my pc results in a "Can't install driver" error.
I've checked the FAQ in this forum but there's nothing about this issue.
I'm going to do more searching, but If I don't find anything I'll start a new thread about this issue.
