Hi, has anyone else all of sudden have a Facebook (Build 140579) download bar on their notification bar that will not go away even after a reboot? Its been apparently tying to download for the past couple hours and its not coming from the Google store since its not updating from there.
hey me too!! found this thread on google... I don't know what this facebook download is.
I tried closing apps like facebook, google store, browser.. everything. Still there.
Here's a list of my running apps:
whatsapp, viber, wssynclnps, software update, settings, MAPServiceSamsung, GoogleServices, Media, Remote Controls, Maps, Google Play Store, S Suggest, Email, SecPhone, Simple Alarm clock, Stock Daemon(EUR), S Voice, Swype Beta 1.4
Tried closing most of them but can't get rid of it. I tried disabling mobile data, nothing. Even tried to uninstall facebook (don't use it tbh), nothing.
Galaxy S3 here.
ok, found more info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189262
it appears you can tap and hold the notification and then click app info, it's the Download Manager process. If you clear data and force stop, the weird facebook notification will disappear for good.
Thanks, did just that and it went away. Hopefully for good since my battery was getting drained faster trying to download nothing.

Do you have active sync on? I had similar problem and disabling active sync helped me

In my case it didn't come back. Did you clear data for that service?
I don't have active sync on, and cleared data several times. It's been off now for 10 min, fingers crossed.

Same problem here
i'm on a galaxy nexus and am experiencing the same thing. restarting doesn't work, and force closing the download manager only temporarily stops the problem.
EDIT: what seemed to work for me was to go to long press for app info clear data and then force stop the download manager. hasn't come back... yet
Happening on Verizon HTC Rezound with Android 4.0.3. Rebooted, uninstalled Facebook updates (can't uninstall the original version), reinstalled updates - no change. Long pressing it does nothing.

hi, tonight i've just flashing a custom ROM for my p500 everything works fine.
but after i finished setting my google account, the market suddenly start downloading all apps that i've installed on my previous ROM, without asking my permission, and yet i cant find any way to cancel it.. even i have turn off my data access but the downloading notification is still in the status bar, and it'll resume as soon as i re-enable my data access...
of course i've done googling and find many solutions like:
1) force closing the market --> not working
2) clearing the market cache and data --> not working
3) go to the apps page that currently downloading trough the market, to find a cancel button, but it's not there
4) opening "my apps" list on the market, all the apps that currently downloading was there but their status haven't "installed" yet of course... but the cancel button was also not there....
how do I get rid of this?
it really pisses me off

Tried several times, but market changes the file to initial version.
Any clue for fixing it?
If you haven't already, clear the Market app cache and updates, under settings/applications/manage apps. Do the same with Download Manager, Downloads, and Market Updater. Also try cycling the Notify for Updates option in Market settings. This happens on occasion to me as well, sometimes if fixes itself, somtimes not.
You can also try Titanium Backup's Fix Market feature, can't say if this works or not. Otherwise, you can track your app updates via AppBrain, or aTrackDog

I have done all of it. And about Titanium's Market Doctor.. it seems that it doesnt work properly, many people replied that they had this issue after using it, and so do I. Just dont remember when it had appeared.
No chance than an hard reset.

People from the thread in the first post have flashed stock and nothing happened. I've been using CM7 when got this issue, now I run MIUI, and only few apps appeared in My apps after first rom boot, but after reboot or even earlier the list become empty again..
Seems that it is Google fault, obviously. People got this on different devices and firmwares, under different circumstances. Though they report that same account works on other devices, but nothing helps to get it work on initail device. May be google stores imei or other info about phone, but I think this is unlikely
Excuse me, I dont understand - Are You lost your market data on one device or on any device?
Are you try see it on other device with same google account? And what are the results?

On another device I can see only paid apps. If going to the Market web site, all apps are showing.
Seems that google doesnt hurry about solving this annoying mess. Really tired of using appbrain to update my apps. on droidfourms there are people who have "lost" their second accounts already... really a fu**ing disaster
Same here!!!! Market my apps list blank
hey ppl even i m facing the same issue...bt when i return back on ma stock rom it shows me da list....as soon as i restore ma apps wid titanium on a new rom da market list is again empty...oderwse da issue is not solved yet...i think itzz google'z fault!!!! anybody facing this type of prob??? or any suggestions???
same issue
I'm having the same issue, but I also can't download any apparently from the market. Market errors on download without even trying to download. Market was working fine until i switched ROM. I've switched to 4 different ROMs on my LG G2X and had same issue on all. I can't download free or paid apps.
I might have stumbled upon a fix tonight I used rom tool box to attach my apps to market then I used the fix permissions tab and bam I had apps under "my apps" which I haven't had in well over a month

I have got my apps to show up after changing rom, but only for a short time. I installed some of my apps and they showed up, but after reinstalling all app they were gone again. I have a feeling that either google doesn't like to show largevnumber of apps(300+ at one time) or it doesn't like a specific app. Oh well, I can still update through appbrain app market.

Wiping cache wont work. Closing the app wont work. You need to remove the google account from settings>account and sync. Then just open google play and it will ask you to login. Just login and you wont face the error ever again.

Hope this helps
Checked the net - there are LOADS of people having this issue, regardless of ROM being used - it seems to be something with Google Play itself. I saw a few different solutions being offered but none of them were being reported as being a definitive fix.
For me, it started with newly installed apps I had just paid for not showing up on the device - no icon, no entry to create a shortcut with the shell (in my case ADW Pro on ICS 4.0.4 stock, deodexed, rooted VZW Nexus). Strangely enough, when you went to the entry in Play, it showed as installed and you could actually open it from there. I got around this by creating an ADW launcher action - the entry for the actions DID show for the program.... go figure?
I tried clearing the cache and data on Play and rebooting. All that got me was no apps at all showing on the installed section for awhile until it updated. Then I was able to update one app, but still had the sam trouble with the original update that was causing the 403 errors.
Don't think there's any solution out there that truly works for anyone. We're going to have to let Google fix this one, but we should let them know - I already posted one bug report; the more of us that do so will put the isue on the front burner.

If you do a factory reset, all the data will be deleted. However if you remove the google account, the contacts synced with your google account will be shown again in the contacts list once you add the account again.
Faktory reset isn't the right way. I already did it.

What worked for me
Ok so after racking my brain with this issue I found the app I was trying to install / update (which was swiftkey x in this case) was purchased under my other email i used when Google Play was Android Market. So what I did was open up Google Play and for my HTC EVO 4G hit the menu button which allowed me to choose an alternate Google account. I originally purchased and installed my Swiftkey X on a different account than my Google Play was currently on. I picked the account I originally purchased Swiftkey X on, then did a search in which stated purchased, hit update and WAAAAAAAAAAAAA LAAAAAAAAAA!! no more error (403). Hope this helps. Seems like for purchased apps and maybe others Google will look to see which original account you installed it under. So if you were like me and started with one email account and changed it for one reason or another you will have to use whatever account the application was installed under in Google Play / Android Market for updates.
[side note] If you do not see your Google Account listed under Google Play account options. Ensure you have your phone setup for Syncing that particular Gmail account or else you will have to set that up first before proceeding.

nah... sorry, but I'm using my account for years now... never changed it in any way.
BTW, is this a form of copy protection? Does it happen on unrootet phones with original software, or only with rooted special deliveries like MIUI, Cyanogen mod... etc.?!

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??

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...
So I just flashed viperROM and rooted via the RegawMOD. Whenever I try to download a app from the Google Play store, it just refuses to download. It'll display the "Downloading" dialog and the icon will pop up in the notification bar, but it won't actually download. I've already tried clearing the Play Store's cache and the Download manager's cache. It didn't help. I am connected to the internet. When I tried downloaded the SwiftKey 3 beta off of their website, it worked. Anyone know how to solve this problem?
i rooted with regawMOD too and i locked my bootloader back and unrooted and i am having the same problem.i even ran ruu and still having the same troubles.
Did you try clearing the data in the google app store in addition to the cache? You will have to sign back in I think but that would be the next step. Otherwise I suppose just wait awhile and try again later after a reboot or something.
I had a similar problem and what I had to do was create a new google account then log into the play store with that account and delete my old google account. Once that's set check if you can download an app with your new google account. If you can then you should be able to log in with your old account and solve the problem.

I did try clearing everything. It still wouldn't work.
I noticed this the day I bought the phone.
It's really annoying when I've got app updates. If I click on the batch update button to update multiple apps, it won't complete unless I stay on the update page and keep the phone from going to sleep. Otherwise, the first app will update and the rest will stall on "downloading". This happen pre and post root.
Very annoying.

It must be google, what the heck they are doing!
Really irritating.... I, too, have this issue occasionally, usually on a large download ... like Sky Safari Pro (570 mbytes). Two months of this and my Note freezes during the episode. Only solution I have found is to turn off WiFi, power down, remove SIM and restart. Only then can I kill the download in Google Play. I have seen this on 3 different stock ROM's and 3 different Customs. GB and ICS. Currently on ICS XEU.
Usually waiting an hour or two and then it's okay.... batch updates are a real killer with this and I also see the first download okay then the rest hang and have to be shut down manually.
