I recently flashed the new Cyanogen mod 7 nightly and The new google apps. As I started to experiment with this rom, I noticed that i cannot download any market apps at all. Whenever i press download, the "downloading" notification would pop up for like a second or two and it would then disappear. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Did you try to clear data and cache for the market? That might help. It does not seem like a CM7 issue as it is working perfectly here.
Yeah I have tried that actually. Still the same problem..
Wipe all the data including both caches, flash the build and then flash the apps. Things are working fine with the CM7 builds since I use it. Maybe a radio update if your not up to date ish?
Same Issue
I'm having the same issue on my HD2 Typhoon Cyanogen 7. I was able to download apps from the market for about an hour, right after first launch - now (3 hours later), nothing. I don't have the ability to click 'clear cache' for the Market and I can't seem to download from the online market, either. I don't know whether I should try to clean-install Typhoon or switch to another ROM - or if this problem will just 'go away'. If anyone has further advice, or wants any info from my device, please send me a message.
Update: ROM Manager won't do anything, but I'm not too worried about that. Booting while holding 'Power' gets me to the Bootloader, from there I can get to the Clockwork Recovery. I tried 2 fresh wipes of Typhoon CM7 before throwing in the towel. Another ROM installed and I can download anything I want from the Market.
Ditto here. I installed on a full wipe and market is not working. Are you using wifi or 3g?

I have the same problem, i tried to solve it doing everything (uninstalling and reinstalling market, full wipe, re-flash the rom) but nothing.
I noticed that every time i re-flash the rom market works for a period but than gets stuck !
- download "zipsigner" from market
- select the new market apk (the one that didn't install and fc's)
- select "platform" as key/mode
- sign the file
the resulting apk can be installed as every apk

I have your same problem on DHD CyanogenMod 7 RC2 (uninstalling and reinstalling market, full wipe, re-flash the rom) but the Market don't work!
I got the same problem and solved it by simply wiping my device (Desire) again without flashing CM7 (RC1) again.

could you be more specific on 'wiping'? how did you do it? having the same problem here.
EDIT: reflashed rom and wiped data and cache. market is now working.
EDIT AGAIN: market only worked to download GAPPS eg gmail, youtube, google maps etc etc. when tried to download other apps, a prompt comes up saying "the process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly. please try again."
Hi,
Had the same problem, with cyanogen Mod 7.
First with stock (cyanogen) Market, then even after updating with the new market 2.3.4. Always the same, trying to connect and failure when downloading, no FC at all.
I just solved the problem by flashing again the radio 5.14.05.17 ! (I had this one before flashing Cyanogen and all the other communications were ok, except the market downloads so I didn't think it could come from there ...)
Hope it helps you
I simply solved this problem thanks Titanium Backup that takes back the Market (app+data). Obviusly you had had a backup!
EDIT: doesn't work...after reboot market doesn't exist... I've to rebuild it from TB every time.. that sucks
RE-EDIT: finally works!! I installed it from a backup and then I started it after flashing again gapps(if you don't have a backup you can unzip gapps.zip on pc then move the apk vending to the phone: install it with a file explorer) Then I entered my gmail username and psw(<--- important step) and now it works great! I've made also a reboot to test it.
Solved Problem
After flashing gapps, i had the same problem....
Try a restart - It worked for me!
Yeah, I have the same problem with my freshly installed, latest stable CM (7.0.3-desire). Not all downloads are affected, it's about a third to half of them. If I get the apk file in some other way, installing it works fine. It's just the download from the market server that stops after a second or so (or perhaps never even starts properly).
I've tried to clear market cache, tried rebooting, tried versions 2.3.3 and 2.3.6 of Market app, to no avail.
When you guys say "flash this" or "flash that", does that mean "update"?

i've manage to fix it.
first i backed up my SD card, partition it with ROM Manager, downloaded S2E from the market, check Download Cache, reboot. done. anything and everything can be downloaded now.
I managed to fix with re-flashing CM 7.03 and wiping data. For a couple of days it worked properly. Now from time to time it happens again and the only solution is restarting the phone. Probably I found a similar problem when I tried to install Cut the rope apk from my sd card, CM just did a warm boot. After a several try I restarted my phone and installation worked like a charm. Any thoughts?
what do you mean by using the term "flashing" ?
I am a noob and I am having the same problem too.

Hi there people,
I've been using CM7 since beta 6.0 was released. I've seen how has improved greatly, but now I have a big problem and I don't even know if its only me or for anyone else.
Since flashing RC1v2, My defy is not showing Market App anywhere. And if I try to install any other release over it, market keeps missing.
I've tried to flash SBF Nordic again, and Market returns again... but whenever I get RC1v2 or Newer Nightlies, Market disappears.
What can I do to fix this? Has it happened to anyone else?
Thanks!!
PS: Sorry about my english level.
I've not got this problem and I'm on RC1v2. Assuming you've flashed the google apps update, the only thing I can think to try would be to log in to Google Talk. Probably unrelated, but I read a while back that people couldn't install from the market until they did this...
Otherwise, think you need someone more knowledgable than me, sorry :/

Thanks for your answer!! I've flashed several googleapps versions, but none works. It's like flashing changes nothing on Operative System. Haven't tried logging into Google Talk, and then flash Googleapps.
I'll flash SBF Nordic clean, Install RC1v2 and do the trick... I'll update this post when finished.
EDIT============================================================================
Ok, Now Market Appears, I have done this steps:
I have...
1 - ...Flashed clean SBF Nordic Froyo 2.2.2 , wiping cache / Data Before and After flashing the file.
2 - ...Restarted phone, config Market, and downloader some apps, just to make sure it works.
3 - ...Rooted phone, Installed Snd Init 1.4.2 apk, and rebooted phone.
4 - ...Entered Snd Init, selected Recovery, Wiped Cache / Data and Install RC1v2 zip. Rebooted phone.
5 - ...Initialized phone, checked that Market wasn't there, and rebooted again.
6 - ...Entered Recovery again, and flashed googleapps zip.
Once every step was done, Market reappeared. Don't know what the problem was, but, It's fixed.

For anyone else who needs help on this:
There are specific versions of google apps for specific CM phones. Check the CM website.
Also, Try:
wipe data+cache
flash cm7 (dont reboot after)
wipe data+cache
flash gapps (now reboot)
delay the google aps install tho, id wait untill you set up the wifi first lol
Just checked my sd card, the version i used was gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip for the DEFY
Hi,

I came back to CEE Froyo and I have succesfully installed WajkIUI but now many apps crashes. For exemple after a fresh wipe I can acces to the market, download apps. But after a while the procces com.android.vending crash. I can't start angry birds the process is crashing to. Sometimes after restarting my phone 'acore' process crashes to. someteimes I can't allow non market apps. This is exactly the same when I flash CM7
I've tried to clean cache with adb shell it's not working
Anyone can help me please ? thanks
In the past few days my EVO 4G has started to have an issue with installing or updating apps from the PLAY STORE (Market). It will download to 100% but never start the install process. If I press cancel and then use root explorer to find the app download and then click on it, I get a PARSE ERROR. what is causing the google play store not to start the install process after download? I have tried clearing dalvik cache, regular cache,. play store data and cache, google services fraimwork data, download manager data.. nothing make it start the install process...
Any help would be appreciated.....
Update: I just tried to download and an update.. it got stuck sat 100% .. I am using MIKG 3.11 ROM ... I used task manager and CLICKED the X next to the play store and it then started to install the update.. what is causing this? This trick doesnt always work....

I've had this sort of issue on other ROMs before, but they never seem to be persistent. Reflashing is usually my solution...
Try clearing your cache first through recovery?

if you saw what I wrote, I did clean the cache.. and I am NOT reflashing... I dont think its a issue with my flash as it has been working for months.. this just started a few days ago. HOWEVER it seems if I let it download to 100%, then wait a few minutes then kill the play store (market), then it installs the app or the update
any other ideas??
I've been using Android Revolution 9.2 and this morning installed 10.0. Everything was working fine for a while, then all of a sudden the GAPPS process started force-closing and I lost all access to the Play Store. I would click on the play store icon and it would just bounce me back to the launcher (in this case, Nova Launcher 2.0). I decided I need to reflash Android Rev HD 10.0 (I have CWM Recovery 6.0.1 installed). The AROMA installer would start, but it would always lock up at some point before the installation began, usually at the prompt to backup the efs partition, sometimes earlier, sometimes later. I haven't been able to get a clean flash started. I even tried to go back to 9.2, but the same thing is happening.
I did a factory reset hoping it would fix the problem, but the GAPPS process continues to crash and I can't access google to restore my apps. So I'm really up **** creek here. Am I looking at a bad RAM problem all of a sudden? (god, I hope not!).
Any help/advice would be welcome.
