I hope someone can help.. I have been having issues downloading 2 updates from the market on my evo4g.. COPILOT LIVE and ANGRY BIRDS.. I tried all suggestions already and nothing has worked... IN CAT LOG it shows this error:
DOWNLOADINGASSETVIEWUPDATER.UPDATEVIEW() ASSET COM.ALK.COPILLOT.MRKET.USA IS IN DOWNLOAD STATE BUT DOWNLOAD FAILED
I also see COULDNT FIND PATHNAME FOR COMPLETED DOWNLOAD URI: CONTENT://DOWNLOADS.DOWNLOAD/687 -- Assuming the download failed

Try unmounting your SD card before trying to download the apps.
Settings->SD & Phone Storage
If that works and you want the apps on your SD card, you can move them from Settings->Applications

Tried that and it didnt solve the issue.. I am under the belief that this is an ANDROID MARKET THING and NOT something with my phone..
any other ideas??

Nothing than the ordinary clearing cache/data from market and trying again.

OK I'm still under the assumption that this is a MARKET ISSUE and NOT my phone... I have a support request into android market but no response yet...
Ive tried everything and these are the ONLY 2 apps that dont download anymore..

Someone else was having a problem downloading those two same apps. Theres a thread for it, might have an answer there. It was a day or two ago.

Well, here is what I found out.. IF I uninstall the market update so that I am at the stock market that comes with 2.2 I can download the updates for COPILOT and ANGRY BIRDS.. BUT as soon as the market is updated to the latest version, I cant anymore. why would this happen? I have a support ticket into google to find out why. I tested this by uninstalling the market update and then I was able to download copilot update.. then the market was updated again and I tried ANGRY BIRDS.. NO GO.. SAME ISSUE.. UNINSTALLED the market update again and then was able to download angry birds...
anyone???

OK some updates on my issue..
Some APPS install and some do NOT. I dont know why.. I can uninstall an APP that wont update and the do a regular install of THAT app and it works. I just did that with FLASH 10.2. it would not update with "update unsuccessful" . BUT I uninstalled it the 10.1 version and then downloaded the 10.2 version from market and all installed. I then downloaded move2sd enabler which downloaded fine.. If I switch it on install all apps to SD card (external), they start to install and some give the unsuccessful message and SOME reboot the phone. If I switch it to INTERNAL, NOTHING installs and right away I get an UNSUCCESSFUL message.. if I put it on AUTO, some install land some do not. Any ideas??
Thanks.. I would think GOOGLE would have posted a fix somewhere since I see my issue all over the ANDROID MARKET FORUM and various other forums...

By an chance are you on CM7?

no. the latest SPRINT LOVERS SENSE ROM...
why? is there an issue like this on CM7

I was going to say...well you can still do it. You can try reflashing the rom, and the latest gapps for froyo.

OK.. NOW I am getting can not install in /data/app .. I see this in CATLOG
what does this mean? I even tried to SIDE LOAD an APP but putting the APK on my SD card and it wont install

i was having that same problem with a rom i was using, turned out the rom didnt support adobe flash for some reason. maybe it is the rom.

same issue download/install unsuccessful
Most apps download and install fine
But some return the unsuccessful error
At first it seemed to be only updates but now it's new apps as well
I have sinister rom
Market is still as it was, no Google Play
I've tried every fix mentioned here and nothing works
Facebook can't update
Flickr cant install
Market cant update
etc.
Do you know if this is Google's issue or if it's my Evo?
Getting a reply from Google that even remotely relevant seems impossible

Did you try removing .android_secure

i had the same problem before. i simply restarted my phone and it worked!

[Q] Unable to download apps from the market

Hi,
since I've rooted my phone and went for DeFrost/OpenDesire I'm unable to download any apps from the market. I've set the installation source to internal memory. I've tried to re-install the ROM, cleaning, wiping data/cache and basically everything around that. I'm even unable to download Apps with the original 2.2 unrooted STOCK rom now.
Any ideas?
What I did so far:
- Wiping the phone
- Formating the SD card
- Basically everything to default
- Installed FroYo 2.2.1 Pre-Rooted
And still I cant download apps from the market.
Please I am begging for ideas
try clearing market's data in "application" section of "settings"
does your problem include free apps? or paid only?
Hi,
did that.
Applies for paid and free apps
Apps Install Problem
Hi,
I've got kinda the same problem.
Got root phone with custom ROM (Neophyte) and download apps form market is fine but after they don't install and I still have the installing process running but nothings happens.
I've try to change ROM but in Cyamogen I don't even see the Android Market.
I have partitioned the SD card with Rom Manager to get APP2SD but I d'ont know if this is working. How to check?
Someone can help? Which ROM should I use to test if the market is Ok?
Can I put a HTC rom into my rooted phone?
I do have the feeling that my phone is not allowed to place the files somewhere it would need to. Does anyone know where files from the market are being placed when the download starts?
Update:
I found a solution. I need to disable the SD card and them I'm able to download files again. So I guess its some kind of app2sd problem?
And with defrost its not working anylonger.
GOD DAMNIT. This is driving me crazy
So even with a ext3 partition I'm unable to download these Apps. I've tried repair mode from ROM manager and he successful fixed everything - without a result.
If anyone has an idea please tell me. I'm unable to use my phone this way and I don't have any idea at this point. I just revoked everything going back to an unrooted HTC Desire EU 2.2 rom.
Its still not working. I dont get this.
SD card was formated, Phone was wiped - its in the same state as yesterday before I rooted it. So how the heck is it not working anymore?! Cant be its kinda hardware bricked or something ... ffs
PLEASE
I have the same problem. After creating the partion in rom manager I am unable to DOWNLOAD apps for the market but I can still install apk's from the memory card.
SOLUTION!!!
The solution is quite simple actually. Tried it on HTC Tattoo
Go to Settings>Applications>Managae Applications>Market and uninstall all the updates for Market and clear cache. Try Downloading Apps from Market.
Cheers!

Unable to download Apps on Market after I unlocked my Tmobile Vibrant
I'm also having the same problem after I unlocked my Tmobile vibrant.
If i reset my phone and go to apps market, Im able to download fine, but after closing apps market and opening it again and try downloading any apps, nothing happens. It says its "starting download" but nothing happens. It seems to be stuck at that "starting download" process. But if I reset my phone and go back to the Apps market and try downloading apps and everything will work temporary.
I tried going into settings---->applications----> manage applications----> clear cache---->reboot
Also tried going to Download Manager-Clear Data----Reboot
Also tried uninstalling updates for Apps Market.
Nothing helps.
Please help if you find a way to fix this problem.
Phone-SGH-T959
Firmware- 2.1-update1
Baseband Version- JI6

some progams will not update

Hopefully someone can help.. NEW market will not install or even download anything. I flashed OLD market and 99% of all apps download (some still say download failed right away), some will update no problem.. OTHERS will not . I look in catlog when the install of the update fails.. for instance I tried to update a program called SOUND HOUND.. it downloads but fails the install.
You see in CATLOG this error :
DexInv : --- END '/data/app/com.melodis.midomiMusicIdentifier-2.apk --- status=xff00, process failed
and also
dexopt failed on /data/dalvik-cache/[email protected]@com.
What does this mean and how to resolve? why do some apps update fine and others get this kind of error?
Well I think I fixed it. Old market is the only one that works. New one won't download or install. I had to erase davlik cache and then market data and goggle services framework data. It appears the new market has issues as there is a big discussion on the google market forum. Glad someone was able to send me the old market.
Oh yea. I also had to uninstall an app and then reinstall the same app from the market and it fixed the issue.

Market install issue (again)

I hope someone has found a solution as NO ONE from GOOGLE seems to respond when I sent a support request.. I have not been able to download ANYTHING from the NEW market APP. I tried deleting the android_Secure, looking for the temp file people talk about, deleting cache and data etc. I have since FLASHED the OLD MARKET back. NOW, some APPS will install and SOME updates to apps will install. OTHER APPS and OTHER UPDATES will not install with the "install unsuccessful" message and OTHER apps will try to update but the phone will restart.
I see this listed all over on different forums and I am hoping someone has found a solution. It appears it is a wide spread issue. last night I was able to download a program from the market called FULLHDMI but today I tried to download SPRINT TOTAL PROTECTION APP and it downloads but doesnt install. Then I tried to update FULLHDMI and that worked but another app update didnt and finally a third app update rebooted the phone.
What is going on and how to resolve?? There has to be some kind of fix.
Thanks ....
Dang... you are still having issues? I wish I could help you more man. I have told you all I know to do That sucks!

My wife phone(S-ON+Gingerbread) had the same issue last 2days. What i did was, uninstall/clear cache. I'm guessing the problem somehow link to the low disk space

I cleared cache but nothing is working here. I can install apps but cannot download it. I've like 9mb free space :/
Confirmed, same here.
Direct initiation at market works.
Are you guys having this problem only on market or any downloads?
Did you try a hard reset?
No, works with OR-code.
Try updating your market manually to a newer version.
I used the file mentioned in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17660500#post17660500
It seems to have solved my market related problems so far
Nick
It is a internal memory related issue. Even i faced the same problem. Clearing memory more than the app you are trying to download will fix the issue.

Suddenly cant download ANYTHING from android market!

The android market just gives me that striped animation anytime I try downloading an app. Have tried clearing the market cache, google framework service cache nothing seems to work! Just the new EU firmware OTA and rooted and removed the bloat apps and downloaded script manager from the market without any problems. Then tried to download a busybox app...thats when the market just stuck on the stripped animation and its been that way with everything else I've tried from the market incuding updates to my apps. Please any help guys??

Done a restart ?
If it does not help: Because you are rooted, you should be able to delete the Android Market. You can get the AndroidMarket.apk from the net and reinstall it(Unknown Sources have to be checked). But before doing something fancy, you should do a BACKUP, with CWM or RZR.

Yeah several restarts. Just got an update, it appears the youtube app also gets stuck with the rotating circle...cant load the video. Cant help but assume these are related. And also I've tried this on both wifi and 3G, same.

This is strange indeed. If even the solution above doesn't help, I would recommend you to flash you ROM via ODIN. Usually it should replace the missing files, so this could work. Do a Backup as mentioned above.
BTW: But generally your internet works? (via Browser)

Yes my internet works fine. I actually cant do anything requiring a usb cable since I lost mine and wont be getting a new one till the weekend maybe. I actually tried some other things like clearing the cache partition in recovery (stock) and logging out of gTalk and relogging in which solved similar problems for people online. Just seems everything is fine...except the market cant connect and download stuff, and youtube cant connect and load videos...I feel its a google account problem surely but dont have a clue what to do. Thanks for your response all the same.
First......Ensure SD Card is properly seated, open phone and make sure of this!!!
Do these :
Settings/Applications/Manage
Applications/All/
Downloads/Clear Data.
Media Storage/Clear Data....

I cant quite explain what happened, but I fixed it. It had to do with a botched backup/uninstall of google books with TB. I tried to back it up but it seemed to just hang up. Then I killed TB in the Task Manager and restarted it. I realised a backup had been made for the older version(1.46) instead of the new version(1.52). Google Books showed up as a system app after my last FW upgrade and I updated it (through the market) but the update made the app unusable(FC everytime I start it). I ignored all that at the time since I didnt use it actually. Tried to remove it yesterday and I guess that set this whole mess in motion. Thanks to all
