I've searched all over the web for this and all over XDA and there has been nothing conclusive. Hoping we can find something usable here.
Basically, market hangs on starting downloads and does not progress. I can tie the failure only occurring after I install the V1.1.0_r2 update and ensuring top to bottom I have met all the requirements. I work on about 4 NCs for family members and one of our has gotten V1.1.0_r2 working with Market fully functional. 2 of the NC's fail Market and have not tested the 4th since generally, only Market fails but all other functions on the NC work perfectly.
My system:
- 1.0.1 Auto Nootered
- Gingerbread keyboard
- Sideload hack
- Telephony Hack
Here are the symptoms I have found:
- All worked fine on 1.0.1
- Initial install of 1.1 worked for a bit but crashed on adfree host file update and did not work thereafter
- First notice was on Facebook download
- market.android.com can still push installs
What has not worked:
- Clearing Market data
- Clearing download manager
- Starting and stopping downloads
- ejecting or unmounting SD card
- fixing permissions does not work
I've seen this happen on 2 different Nook Colors but not on a 3rd and my personal SC I've repeated the failure across 3 complete factory wipes and resets with the same end result of a working Market that gets stuck on Download Starting.
Any ideas?
You don't have an Android phone, do you? This happens on every device recently, something with the market, has nothing to do with the Nook.
I disagree. I have a DINC and several nooks and I can force this to happen on the nook where the market works fine until I update to 1.1
I was having the same market download behaviour you describe the first few times I attempted a 1.1 upgrade. The thing that finally did work for me was doing a complete wipe of all data, all cache and complete factory reset, even back to the stock recovery partition. Then walked through the upgrade setting things up by hand and not restoring anything from backup. The market has worked fine for me ever since.
You mentioned doing complete factory wipes and resets, and if they were this kind of thorough wipe-everything back to out-of-the-box state reset and not just a restore from an old backup... then I don't know what to tell you. I assumed there must have been something buried in my data that was somehow causing the problem in 1.1, but maybe I just got lucky that last time.
fwiw, here's what I did in case you spot any differences that might help.
- "Erase and Deregister Device"
- wiped dalvik cache and cache partition from clockwork recovery
- used dd to rewrite boot and system partitions to stock out-of-the-box state (1.0.1 version)
- rebooted and went through B&N "first time" setup process, registered with my B&N account.
- auto-nootered
- rebooted and went through google's "first time" setup process.
- performed the whole youtube -> gmail -> google talk -> market setup dance
- installed clockwork rom manager from the market
- followed the 1.1.0 upgrade process
- rebooted and tested everything (including the market)
- started manually loading books and apps back on, avoiding backups made before the upgrade
I don't know if this is of any help, but it worked for me. And I hope someone figures out where the problem actually is before the next B&N upgrade, because I'd rather not have to do all that again.
I did the same thing as you but I did not wipe the dalvik cache. Weird thing was that I was able to get market to work immediately after the update but it stopped working after a bit. Couldn't tell what triggered it and I was only doing hard installs from market. No backups.
I restored to factory via 1.0.1 image several times to try and isolate the problem. It was not decisive since I do have one nook that competed all updates including an overclock and all functions seem to work perfect including market.
issues and FCs with V1.1.0_r2 update
Keep in mind I am a noob at all of this and am barely able to keep up with you guys, but I had problems with FCs and general instability after using the V1.1.0_r2 update and flashing one of the more "stable" overclocked kernals. In general I didn't like the direction my NC was heading and decided to begin again.
I went back to stock using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945838
and then applied this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922870
and so far everything seems stable.
The people on these forums amaze me with their technical know-how.
Having the EXACT same problem here after doing a wipe and upgrade to auto-nootered 1.1.
After successfully downloading and installing roughly 20 apps, any new downloads now stop at the "Starting Download...." stage. Ive also tried everything short of replacing vending.apk to fix the problem -- nothing has worked. Ill be trying that next... I'll report back after.
A HUGE thanks in advance for any help you can offer:
I have a Viesonic G-Tablet, and I've flashed a couple of different ROM's on it - TNT Lite 4.4 and VEGAn-TAB 7.0 RC1.
LOOOOONG story short:
Tried to install Ubuntu, no luck.
Downloaded ZPad to try it out, installed. Didn't like it, used ClocworkMod to recover to a previous TNT Lite 4.4 install. From there, reflashed to Vegan...
And that's when the problems started. Namely, Market no longer works properly. None of my downloads are successful. It gives a "Download error - Download was unsuccessful, please try again."
So, after trying again to go back to TNT Lite and having the same trouble, I NVFlashed back to stock, wiped EVERYTHING per the directions on XDA, in the order prescribed - did everything by-the-book, and still no luck on any ROM. TNT Lite, Vegan - both of them adamantly refuse to download anything from the market.
I've searched to my wits end not only in this thread, but others as well. I've reset the data, reset the cache, uninstalled the market update - you name it, I've tried it.
Could it be your internet connection? Do other devices on your network download from the internet fine?
Thanks for the question. I guess I should have been a little more specific: Yes, great connection. I can browse the web fine, even download from Amazon's appstore - but that's where it ends. The weirdest thing is that I have noticed that I can download Firefox from the Marketplace, but literally - that's it. Nothing else, and I've tried close to 40 different apps now. All fail to download.
I've tried clearing the cache, etc...
I was even desperate enough to pretty much do a system wipe and come up clean. I used ClockworkMod to format everything - even the SDcard. Made sure to set the partition size to 2048/0, the whole nine yards. Wiped all the data, cleared/formatted cache, so I'm at a loss.
*UPDATE 4/18/11 - On a whim, I decided to use ClockworkMod to reset my User Data, and signed my tablet in under another Google account I had. As I type this, I'm downloading all the apps that I was unable to download with my "usual" account. So maybe there's a bug on Google's side? How would I even go about fixing that?
I'm having this same problem. NVFLASH and reFLASH numerous times and still no luck can someone please help. Can't install anything from market at all. it download and as soon as it finish dl and start to install it will restarted itself and nothing happen. please help. THanks
Exact problem I'm having. I've tried five different roms, from Vegan to CM7, to older TnT's and Calkulin's, nothing will let me download and install from the market. I did yet another full NVFlash last night and repartitioned the tablet, still no luck after flashing CM7. It started off allowing me to download a few dozen apps then giving me the download error, but now the first app I try gives me that.
Did anyone else here come down from TwoTapsX or another 1.2 based rom? Seems to me the issue started right about the time I NVFlashed down from that.

I just tried this myself, sure enough I can download with another Gmail account, but not my main one.
This has to be an issue with Google...I am having the same issue also.
How the hell did I quote myself up there?
Mine is downloading again, all I did was sign in as my backup account, wipe data and dalvik cache, reflash then fix permissions. When i logged in again it worked. Don't know which step actuallly fixed it.
I just deleted the data under app management and they started working again for me.

I had the same. Uninstalling Flash player seem to have solved the issue for me
Me too
I seem to have the same problem however I do not get an error message at all, I just see the application in the notification bar preparing to download except instead of even downloading it basically just disappears. I had this problem ever since installing Vegan tab 5.1.1.
I had the same problem...drove me crazy...finally figured out that you can just log intp the market on my laptop and install everything from there....
I can't get rid of this stupid 492 error when downloading/updating app. I've been flashing ROM/KERNELS/RADIO's for years on many different phones, so i kinda know what I'm doing
Clearing data for the play store and Google framework, it's not helping, re-installing the ROM has done nothing. I've flashed my ROM 3 times (Saurom 7.1 galaxy note)
Before each flash i have wiped data and cache on main CWM screen, then in mounts and backup up I have wiped the Data, cache, system, emmc, and formatted the sd card. So we definitely got a nice clean fresh install with no data left behind. Click advanced and also wipe dalvik cache. Still error 492 and can't do anything with the play store. I've uninstalled play store 3.4.something and downloaded 3.5.something, install was successful, and guess what. "your item can't be downloaded. error 492)
I've been using this ROM for months, and never had a problem, After some annoying bugs developed where: alarm clock, voice recorder and a couple other everyday system apps would force close, I decided to just do a quick re-install on the ROM. I haven't used titanium backup or anything until I got my system apps updated, fresh ROM installs with a fresh version of the play store, still no go. i'm on the road for a few days, so re-installing Factory Image with ODIN is not a possibility at this time. Anyone know what the problem is? The phone sat all night with a data connection, and this morning when I got up I tried to update a couple apps, same error 492 popped up.
Did you see my reply to you in the original thread you posted this question in?

I'm having the same issue. I have followed all fixing methods and actually all of then work for about a day and end I get the error again.
Also, every time I get this error I cannot download any email attachment.
I have 2 Fascinates running AOKP milestone 5 and only 1 has this error. I'm running since release date and this problems started about a week ago.
I am kind of tired of this and I'm flashing Milestone 6 this week and I hope this error will be gone.
Does anyone know why I keep getting this error back?
i have face this error 492 problem.
please suggest me my mb. Samsung Galaxy S2
Hi all! Please solve my issue - it is getting real serious. Before starting a thread I have already researched a lot about this problem and now, XDA is my second last hope!
I own a XOLO Q1010 (with Android 4.2.2) phone. Recently, the company has released KitKat update for this device. I was real excited about it as the new ROM has already arrived luckily to my phone as well! But, unfortunately, it is not that easy. I start upgrading by downloading the system update of 316.14 mb, and as soon as it enters Recovery mode, after few seconds, an error occurs. First, I thought there might be some problem with the Zip file, next, I downloaded update again and kept it at a safe place to reuse it.
Now, I don't know why but as I analyzed that error, it wrote:
warning:no file_contexts verifying current system
"/system/app/Browser.apk" has unexpected content,
installation aborted.
update.zip is not correct
I thought that once few months earlier, I disabled this browser app (after rooting) so that may be the issue. I'll update that browser and it will apply the update to my phone.
After this, I started troubleshooting.
I checked Browser.apk file, and saw that it was working fine.
After this, when I started Browser, it showed: "Unfortunately, the Browser has stopped".
I later reset the app preferences, but it didn't worked.
I decided to re-install the fresh version and paste it manually within /system/app folder.
I did as many times as possible and with trusted installers (like the one I got on some thread on XDA itself), but nothing really worked.
I decided to do clear the cache partition but that doesn't work either.
Right now, the browser is also not working and I cannot upgrade my system as well.
I have gone for Factory Reset as well. But as soon as setup completes and everything get backs to normal, I start the default browser, it pops-up the message again that unfortunately, the browser has..
So this is what bothering me a lot. I have already gone for a Factory reset and tried the methods that I was aware of and found suitable. But nothing actually worked. The Recovery still displays the same error as above and I cannot upgrade my OS to KitKat.
Tired and irritated now, please anyone help me.
Thanks in advance! :good:
I have the same issue.
I also deleted the system browser.apk.

Hi,
[Sorry for the long post, but please, bear with me. This issue needs a lot of explaining...]
It's been a few weeks since I have been experiencing this weird problem with my phone. It started when one day I picked up my phone and saw that process.android.gapps had stopped. So I did what everyone does and cleared the cache, wiped the data, but still nothing happened. I went over and cleared it for play services too and that reset my google account (no idea why) and everything came back to normal. Or as I thought it did. A few days later, I again had the same problem in front of me, except that it was not just gapps this time, it was a ****load of a few more apps, including process.???.acore, all giving ANRs. Plus my google account got erased somehow so play store won't login and all other unnecessary stuff.
So I got frustrated and went over to the recovery and tried to factory reset. And this is where I realized something. IT DIDN'T HELP! The phone started as normal and I saw the startup screen. But as soon as I started entering my details, all the ANRs came back simultaneously.
So I did a lot of other stuff to rectify this, all in vain. Skip to 8 hours later. This is where I realized, some of the apps in /data/data had got corrupted and hence nothing was happening. Also, formatting /data resulted in an error, which I HAVE NO IDEA WHY TILL DATE.
So I did a workaround and renamed /data to something so that the android OS could create a new /data, which IT DID on the next reboot! And all was working fine again.
FOR A FEW HOURS.
Again the same ANR, same everything, no access to /data to format it etc etc.
Again renamed and rebooted and reinstalled Blisspop and gapps and everything.
And this has been the scene ever since.
What aggravates the situation?
A REBOOT
Whenever I reboot my phone, be it soft or hard, It corrupts some or the other app in /data. If I'm lucky it's a non essential app. If not, xx.xx.xx has crashed and the phone is unusable. I usually use ES and try to rename for the non essential apps (as deletion isn't possible), but for the essential ones, a reflash with whole /data/data renaming has to be done.
So basically this is the problem. I have no idea why my /data/data corrupts randomly, or whenever I restart. Could it be because I greenify apps? I stopped using deep hiberation but still this occurs. Or could it be a failing internal memory?
Please Help! I am just frustrated. Might go over to G3 soon if this doesn't work out.

I think it would be painfull to pinpoint what is screwed on your phone. If i were you,i would flash stock firmware and start from the beggining.

Yeah I guess that's what I'll do finally.
Although I'm still gonna try for a few more days to find something out If I can.
I'll post an update here if I do, in-case someone runs into the same problem as me and needs to find a solution later on.
UPDATE 1 - Okay so I reflashed everything to start over (everything same as before, no downgrading) and I think I may have found a solution. So rebooting the system corrupts /data right? Well, I tried powering off and starting instead of rebooting and that seems to work pretty well. No ANRs even after doing this more than 20 times. [NO IDEA WHY, but hey, it works, so good enough]
Although, I had greenify disabled.
Now, I'll try with it enabled and post an update soon.
