Weird Market Problems on Desire

Just got my HTC Desire today and everything is working fine apart from the android market. I have 3 problems:
1) I don't have the paid apps tab only top free and just in. I can see paid apps within the just in section, but not top paid apps.
2) When I clock on the install button I get a blank screen with just the background gui showing for at least 10-20 seconds before the confirmation screen that shows what permissions the app needs is finally shown.
3) Apps install correctly however they never get removed from the "currently downloading" list in the Downloads section of the android market.
I got the phone through virgin mobile and I am currently using a t-mobile sim in it. I have tried doing a factory reset which didn't solve the problem.
Anyone had any similar issues?

Please search before posting.
Your problems will be solved by removing t-mobile content lock. It can be done through their website or by calling customer service.
One problem will remain though: so far no one can see copy-protected apps because market is not recognizing our build number. It should be solved soon though.
Hi,
The phone actually came from Virgin Mobile, but for the moment I am using my old T-Mobile sim which used to be in my G1 which didn't have any problems with the market. I seem to remember de-activating the content lock when I used the browser for the first time on my g1.
I just checked on my t-mobile account details and I definitely have the content lock turned off.
I still have the same problem with the market, i.e. I get about 20 seconds of blank screen after clicking install before the permission confirmation details come up.
And after an app is installed it still shows in the download section as installing with the grey progress bar and doesn't disappear unless I go to the settings/Applications and clear the cache in download manager, market and force close the market app.
Anyone have any similar problems? I have done a full factory reset three times, still the same problems.
Liam
I just got mine, its a open one unbranded. I can neither connect to gtalk or download apps, both hang. I have read similar problems for the Droid, but the fixes dont work for me.
Also can you connect the device to the internet via the PC, like windows mobile ?
That's odd. My problems were solved by removing content lock.
Does the same thing happen on WiFi? Did you try to restart the device?
Regarding PC to phone tethering, it's not possible over USB. There are guides on how to do it over WiFi though.
Its the same for me : confirmed that content lock is off.
and still have this problem.
On Tmobile, upgraded from G1, same sim.
I get this on wifi or not.
If I restart the device, the Market Place states its installed correctly (like it should do). But installing another shows the same problem.
I've done a Factory Reset via the menu and that did solve it.
And I've just phoned tmo tech support, and they recommend resetting via fastboot.
I'll give that a go later, and post back the results.
Any other ideas?
Its really weird. Yesterday at a different wifi location it worked fine. But again its not working in work. I assume then the downloads are being blocked by the service provider, or the router.
Thats really crap you cannot connect to the internet via the USB cable like in windows mobile. I cant get my data service working either - so in work I have to work.
ok, I did a clear storage from the fastboot menu, I assumed that what he meant, had no effect.
but figured it out!!!!!!
its my gmail/Google account thats the problem! if I reset the phone and created a new account it works fine. log back in as me, bang. back as previously created new account, fine.
1. is this the same for other people?
2. the people who are having this problem, are you all previous Android users?
3. if so, what phone? me was G1.
I will have to raise a bug with android or google on this.
I now also have to ring back tmo and tell them this info, as I'm guessing by his language he want to take the phone back in.

Beware that while most apps like gmail, calendar, contacts, etc work using port 80 (HTTP), both google talk and android market use different ports.
In my school network I can't connect to gtalk or download from market because they block those ports on the firewall.
I previously had a g1 and think the problems I was having had something to do with my gmail account but it seemed to resolve itself after several factory resets.
I am not convinced that the factory reset was what fixed it, I just think it needed a bit of time to sort itself out.
I wonder if having a new device with the same gmail account causes the issue and it takes a while to recognise the new device. though that doesn't really explain the behaviour I was seeing.

I cannot find a way around this.
My google account shows the slowness and install problems, a test/temp/dummy/other account does not, I do not want to change my email address!
So I have emailed Google, see where that gets me.
Anyone know/think-of any other routes?

I am having problems with the Market on my new Desire. I previously had a G1.
1. When I select Downloads tab, it takes about 10 seconds before the loading text is displayed.
2. When selecting something to install, the 1st info page with the install button is displayed but with no info/text/etc, ie only the install button, again about a 10sec wait and the info shows fine.
3. When selecting install, the security confirm page is displayed but is blank, no text or buttons, another 10secs and its displayed.
4. If I actually go to install an app, it correctly redirects me back to the last market list page. From there if I go to Downloads, after the 10sec wait, it always states "installing", even when its finished, and pushed a notification up.
I can use the app, but the market always states installing. Even hours after. These all queue up and never clear.
Only rebooting the phone clears the installing app, and correctly marks them as installed.
5. Uninstalling app cannot be completed at all. I select uninstall, and it pops up the confirmation box, but then displays a blank page, and after the 10 or so seconds, displays the "Uninstalling application" with progress bar, but never completes. Again only a reboot corrects this.
All this occurs for any app.
I have done many Factory Resets from software, and Clear Storage from Fastboot.
Interestingly, my phone works corrected with a new account, I reset the phone and instead of signing in with my usual account, I created a new one, this worked very fast and correctly. Signing back in with my normal account again showed the same problems.

same problem here, gone from a G1 to HTC desire not tryed to sign up with a new account simply becasue i had the xxxx.xxxgmail mail now for over 18 months and rely on it.
All I know is that the day after I got my Desire, probably about 24 hours after first turning it on (and after 4 factory resets which may have nothing to do with it) I was installing an app, which had the same problems i.e. delayed permissions screen, remaining in the download screen even after being installed succesfully, then a few minutes later I went to install another app and it was fine, no delay, suddenly I had the Top Paid apps tab and apps did not remain in the download section as still downloading. It has been fine ever since.
It seems that all of us who have this problem have had G1s previously so it must be something to do with that.
I experienced this issue with my new desire but not one with older rom. Both from T-Mobile. The funny thing was first day it was running pretty slow, could not view paid apps either but now it is much faster as it should be and paid apps have appeared too. So it's working brilliantly.
i have market problems too... i cant see many market apps, including paid apps which i bought..
it's a free desire with vodafone spain sim.

That's a different issue, apparently Google have not yet added the HTC Desires "fingerprint" to some kind of database that enables access to apps with copy protection, this is why some apps you have previously purchased won't show up.
Apparently this happens with all new handsets, though why Google don't get this resolved before the phones release I don't know, as it doesn't give a great experience to the end user (HTC say they sent the fingerprint well before the phone was released but google haven't processed it yet).
Hopefully this should be resolved soon. Until then I have had to extract a few of my more regularly used protected apps from my G1 with root.
But it happens to me with free apps too.

Any application developer can choose to use copy protection, some free apps choose to do that.

[Q] Problem with phone sending massive amounts of data

My girlfriend's Arc is sending up to 50 mb of data every day and also receiving somewhere near that amount. I've had several data monitoring apps on it and they all give pretty much the same amount, and those that show what's been using the data all say it's the OS itself, so I can't manage the data it sends by any other means than switching data off entirely.
This has been happening for about a month and seems to be getting worse. She was running Gingerbread and I did two fresh installs, but they didn't change anything. I've now put Generic Global ICS on it and it's still the same.
Does anyone have any ideas? Another side effect seems to be that it's killing the battery. Could it even be a hardware problem?
hello, the phone consume more battery because is always accessing 2G/3G/WIFI networks to send all that data, in fact, is 10x more than the normal ... may have several reasons: virus, GPS tracking, ghost email (which sends information to) hidden applications of own carrier. The last two have already happened to me and the only solution was to format ALL. It is best to do a fresh install, with another type of GB (a trusted one) and a new baseband. If the problem persists try to install ICS and, if you don´t like ICS, come back again to the GB(after install ICS) so you can be sure that everything was formatted. Obviously has to be with "Bootloader Unlock". I hope I have helped ...
If data syncing is turned on, it will keep checking to see if you have new emails etc.
A huge data hog is the facebook application. It was so bad that I ended up freezing it with Titanium Backup.
I don't think the problem is Facebook as that's showing in the list of apps that are using data and it's not using that much. I'll delete it and see what happens though. The data seems to be being sent by the OS itself, not any one app.
I'm already on ICS and that hasn't helped. When you say format, what do you mean? Do a factory reset? A clean install? I think the bootloader is locked, but I'll check that.
Could the problem be with something on the SD card?
If I understand correctly, you have the "locked bootloader" then the more certain is an hidden application (from your operator) that consume all this data and has nothing to do with Facebook, I use this and another mobile phone and never, not even close, it's consuming 100mb (in + out) as you can see a use of the following three days ... The best is to do "bootloader unlock" (without which you will never do a full format) or if still under warranty, and if you have not done anything that operators do not like, you go to the store and claim about that ... I think this kind of applications are never installed on the SD ... With "locked bootloader" a factory reset only reinstall the same stuff…

S4 Mini behaves strangely

I apologize for my English, I'm Brazilian, and they told me to go to XDA to solve my problem.
In this case, I'm using Google Translate.
Hello, I have an S4 Mini, which is behaving in a very strange way and I already tried to make the two solutions that I found, that would be to put the Stock Rom, and the Hard Reset but that did not solve.
The symptoms I have noticed in him so far are:
1 - Battery behaves strangely (Sometimes I turn on and off the battery comes back with another charge). And it gets very fast when I'm using it. But the battery is new.
Android takes actions alone, for example, it is 0% I connect it, it unlocks the screen alone, and opens the native browser the "Internet", and goes to a page that is like a map, and starts to Write random things, like, McFWjham; KAMV.
3- The use of data has remained high when it is active.
4- Sometimes when it is working normally, it opens native programs for no reason, the most common is the "Internet".
So I do not know what else to do, the cell phone is very well preserved, no visible problems, no crumple of drops, the problem is just in time to use kkk. Help me pls.
#Edit :The screen when active uses 40% to 50% of the battery according to Android.
The "Android System" occasionally gets to spend 60% of the battery.
When the battery is locked it tends to remain, but when I use the smartphone, the battery tends to decrease with the second ones very fast.
The battery is new.
Please help me T.T

Sounds like you have a malware infection (though can't be 100% sure) maybe adware, I would guess. Factory reset should have fixed it and reinstall stock rom would definitely fix it even if malware rooted your phone. So that means there is an easy way for reinfect to happen.
Reinfection can happen many ways eg via bad app, through your google account, cloud storage, wifi, other network you have joined etc. Unfortunately it can be very hard to stop if you don't know how it's happening.
1st lets assume it's a bad app you installed, try run a good antivirus like Avast, does it show malware? Clean anything it finds. If you are lucky it will only be adware app that you reinstalled yourself after the new rom, once removed you will be OK and phone clean. But if it comes back by itself then it will take more work to find how it happens.
[Note: You can also boot phone into safe mode which will only allow system apps to run, it is a way to test if it is a bad 3rd party app, is the problem stopped now 3rd party apps can't run?. (though if your phone has been rooted by malware and bad app installed as system app, then bad app will still run). If you think it might have been rooted, download a root checker app to test]
Change the software.

I have avast installed, and cleaned, but not changed at all.
My device was already rooted by me, when I gave the hard reset and soon after the exchange of the rom stock, the root was undone,
I installed Root Checker and it said root was not properly installed.
And as for the security mode, I turned the phone on in safe mode, and when the screen was unlocked, it automatically opened the "internet" browser, on the same page as always.
What should I do?

ummm .... I was expecting it was just going to be a bad app serving ads, this is going to be hard
OK, that should rule out 3rd party apps (assuming you have avast set to find all PUP/PUA, etc & nothing white listed) but not finding anything may mean malware is embeded in ROM or malware was able to open port on your system but then uninstall itself or just that there is a line of code that points browser to a server that is serving adware so antivirus is not finding it. Some malware is able to hide from anti virus software in different ways. Try this app, it is not true antivirus, you run it manually, don't worry if one or two antivirus companies like white armour identify malware, they do often even on clean phone.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.funnycat.virustotal
You can also submit any unknown app to virus total white this app for testing. Also you must submit the bad url your browser is connecting to for testing, this will help it spread to all anti virus database.
Good news is you do not appear to be rooted. But the ROM you flashed may still be bad. Where did you get the stock ROM you flashed? I would only use a trusted source like sammobile.com/ but even that is no guarantee. You could try flash another ROM, though as this happened on previous ROM it's probably a good ROM, unless you are getting all your ROM from same site that is not well known as trusted.
So that would suggest they are able to get easy access to your phone either via your google account, cloud service, local network at home/work/public, or through your modem/router.
Check your local network doesn't have a neighbour or other unknown device connected with this app Fing
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.overlook.android.fing
Of course even if you recognise all devices that doesn't mean your brothers etc phone is not the source.
Do the same with other networks you have access to.. Talk to work, any one else infected? Change you password. If using public wifi always use a vpn.
Likely source is your modem/router, Log into your modem router check for updates for it, (if old and not supported you may need a new one), update or if latest firmware do a factory reset, now reboot and use a new password (do this at the same time you reset ALL your passwords, or you might just allow them to find new passwords and reinfect you)
Check your goggle account does not have someone else set for account recovery and/or two factor authentication. (set it up if not already on) Change password and ALSO change password on any other recovery account (write them down )
do the same for cloud storage, and scan storage for virus if possible eg dropbox local folder on pc. Unlink cloud storage from mobile until you are clean to block this route of reinfection.
Update any other device software & change passwords eg xbox, printers etc
I think there's something I'm forgetting
Now reflash stock ROM ( I would also suggest then flashing an up to date custom ROM with most recent security patches)
Things you can do that may help temporarily .....
Install a firewall app like netguard and block internet access to browser, through may not work as root etc is open by default. Oh yes, that reminds me of one thing I forgot, check your DNS has not been hijacked, netguard shows dns url in settings, change if you cannot find who dns server your phone is using, use google 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 if you don't know what to set.
Use an app like Link2SD, Titanium Pro to freeze apps, but you will need root for this.
It's a lot of work (& I think there is something I am forgetting), you may get away with just factory resetting your modem or something as it appears to just be adware so they probably don't have access to your accounts etc, but I tried to cover everything.
Hope I'm making sense through goggle translate!
Phone with mind of its own may not be hacked or haunted. It can in fact happen when it's exposed to moisture or water. Try putting the phone in a bag of rice for several hours, this will draw out all moisture. Hairdrayer may damage electronics because overheating.
If hacked, I would do following steps:
- modem update with odin (manuals search XDA)
- update latest TWRP (dito on XDA)
- start phone in Recovery mode and wipe everything, also Format Data on SD and external SD. Simple Factory reset my not delete it (use Advaced wipe)
- Install LOS14.1 from arco (check compatibility first, other version available for double SIM) It comes with latest security patches.
- Install Open GApps nano or pico. Install other Gapps later if you need.
- start phone, skip setting for WLan to see if everything works without Network.
Does it work? ...then an open WLan could be hacked, try a secure first or mobile network.
Good luck
Hello guys!
The battery drop problem is a common failure with this i9195 phone. I did a research but you have to help me as well by providing IMEI S/N (located under the battery) in PM to me!
New battery doesn't helps!
My current research: If your phone made in Vietnam in the 1-line ~2013, then you will have a dead motherboard soon, before that battery issue is occuring.
So please give me your details and I will look after it.
Do anyone know when they stopped producing i9195 and i9195i ? I need to buy the latest version, because my i9195 was made in 2013 and have that battery drain issue even with new batteries...
Thanks.

Play Store completely broken while using mobile data only

The android play store is completely broken for me. It's been doing this for the last two weeks. Never had an issue before. I rarely post on XDA anymore because I never have problems with my phone and I'm tech savvy enough to troubleshoot my own stuff but I need help with this. The play store will only download apps and updates via wifi. After troubleshooting the app sometimes I can get it to work but most of the time it will be stuck at 99%, 49%, 36% downloaded or will just say "waiting for download" . I want to be able to use it without having to use wifi. I'm pretty sure it's a bug.
My play store settings:
App download preference: Over any network
Auto update apps: Dont auto update
Troubleshooting steps I took
1. Force close, clear cache
2. Force close, clear data
3. The above + restarting
4. Clear cache of play services and restart
5. Clear cache of download manager and restart
6. Full factory reset of my phone
7. Restarting mobile data, turning off/on wifi/Bluetooth
After the full restart I started to believe that an update somewhere broke the play store. I'm fully stock non rooted on Verizon. Every other app works just fine if it needs to use mobile data. I'm really frustrated and would like some assistance with this.
What email account is your playstore showing it is using? Is it a fully legitimate Gmail account? Or is it an email account that is a student account? Maybe business related?
And have you disabled any apps?
Possible fix...
I've been having the same issue on my rooted S8 since about a week after I bought it two years ago. I could never download new apps or do updates over the air. Now, I just in the last week bought a Note 10+ 5G and set it up with the second of the two Gmail accounts I have. I'm still using the same SIM card I've had for over a year. The Gmail account having issues with OTA updates is over 25 years old now, the newer one's about five years old. Now, as much as I'd like it to be the Note's not rooted, and if I'm logged into the newer Google account it's quite happily grabbing Play Store app. updates over the air.
You beauty!, you say. "Fixed it you have", would say Master Yoda.
Um, no.
If I switch back to the older Google account I instantly lose the ability to download anything over the air. Grabbing stuff while the device is connected to the internet via a wi-fi hotspot works like a charm, but I've tried every solution offered to me by Google technicians and Android experts alike and STILL can't get it download and install an app. when I'm anywhere other than hooked up to my home router. Go figure!
So yeh, just letting you know you're not the only one.
EDIT: Just had a play around (pardon the pun) with -> Settings -> Google Settings -> Google Account
Try this out and see how you go.
1. After you land in Google Settings, make sure the Google account you're having OTA dramas with is showing.
2. Tap on 'Data and Messaging'.
3. Tap on 'Data Management'.
4. Tap on 'Update Drive-enabled app. files'.
5. Tap on 'Over Wi-Fi or mobile data'
Back-arrow your way out, check that your handset is NOT connected to the internet via wi-fi, then go to Play Store, check for updates and they should download without issues over your mobile service provider's network connection. Please note that your mobile data allowance will be used, but you should also be able to wander the streets and grab new apps without needing to connect to a wi-fi hotspot.
Yippee! Oh, and don't applaud...
just throw money.

Question I'm hacked

My girlfriend can see everything I do on my phone, even listen in to my surroundings and spy on me with my camera. I've looked at all the running processes and I can't find the malware. Any advice besides a system reset? Thanks
She's probably just has your password mate. Change it or factory reset your device. If that doesn't work find a new gf.

Believe me it's not just the password. She's installed some kind of parental Spyware like MSpy
If you're sure that's what she has done, and not just a bit paranoid, then you should be able to find it if you got into safe mode. At least I believe so.

I'm 100% convinced that's what she's done but I'm not that tech savvy when it comes to phones so I'm not sure which processes are part of the Android OS and which processes are the spy app.
Ditch gf.
Factory reset, will purge anything she loaded. The bootloader is locked so the only thing she could hack is the user data partition, a factory reset clears this.
Delete Google and Samsung accounts in settings>factory reset from settings not recovery menu>don't set up your Google account initially>change Google and Samsung account passwords on another computer (PC or Mac), write down passwords and make them complicated, setup the Google account on phone then.
It is clean. Be careful what you then load and who you give access to your phone if anyone.
I had a phone bought on eBay which I think it was cloned
It was the Xiaomi mi mix fold 2. I kept sending me messages please close the screen mirroring ect..I tried to reset it but nothing worked. Someone cracked the ROM in my opinion. eBay refunded me in full. I think you shall better buy a new phone
If you're paranoid:
reset your computer without a network connection.
reset your phone and don't connect to wifi yet.
reset your home wifi modem/router
connect your devices and use a strong password.
After this only a specialist can hack you.

No reason to replace the phone if it's a stock Samsung and it factory resets. As long as Knox isn't tripped it's still running with a stock rom and bootloader that haven't been altered and are still secure.

After reset it can't be accessed until account info is entered. My solution bypasses that entirely.
If he factory resets from recovery without first deleting Google and maybe Samsung accounts from the phone he may get locked out by FRP!
FPR is more wicked than any bad gf...
In Samsung's it's always best to factory reset from Settings rather than the boot menu. I redundantly make sure FRP won't be invoked by also deleting the accounts before the reset whenever possible*
*a boot loop or total system crash trashes this option, better hope the account password works...

They don't; most victims inadvertently install the malware themselves. Social media sites like WhatsApp, Tiktok etc are hunting grounds for hackers. Poor settings and app selection, clumsy browsing habits, side loading, unlocked bootloaders, no firewall in use, being careless what's downloaded, not keeping email in the cloud, allowing others physical access to the device, sharing drives, using unsecured wifi hotspots, not using Android 9 or higher... among others.
