[Q] Unable to install Apps from market

I am unable to install apps from the market. I can access the market and select the apps but all I get is starting downloads which doesn't change even if I leave for hours. I have WI-FI enabled and can access the web with no problems. Here is what I have tried already.
Clear Data in Downloader,
Clear Data and Cache in market
Factory reset
Flashed to CyanogenMod 7
and I still cannot download any apps.
If you have s-off you could try deleting the market.apk file and then reinstalling from a non market source? If you search xda I'm sure I remember several threads about this.
I had this problem a few times. Have you recently changed your Gmail (If you use Gmail) address from @googlemail to @gmail? This is what caused the problem for me and many others...
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I never did work out what was causing the problem. I installed CyanogenMod 7 and all is work again.
Yea, sometimes just a reflash fixes the problem. I also found that, sometimes, the download would just finish but never actually install - almost as if the .apk downloaded but the Market Process just never actioned the new .apk to open, so it just sat in /cache until the next reboot, doing nothing.
log in to google talk...i think that should solve the issue.

[HowTo] Fix for new Playstore, Play Services, Maps and Youtube draining battery.

This is a workaround to fix the battery drain caused by the recent Updates Google is installing on our devices.
The main culpid for causing this battery drain are the new Play Services, which are getting autoupdated everytime you have a internet connection, but also the changes made to the PlayStore, Maps and Youtube.
To get rid of all those wakelocks caused by these apps and so almost all the time keeping your phone active, I came to a workaround which still allows you to use the Playstore and apps like Maps and Youtube without causing such a huge battery drain, even if Network Location is still keept enabled.
So what you need:
1) A modified Playstore which doesn´t update itself and the Google Play services. http://uploaded.net/file/n0qykeja
2) The older versions of Play Services, Maps and Youtube. https://www.dropbox.com/s/p7fsu00r3zhat0l/google-fix.zip
3) App Backup & Restore and Root Explorer.
First disable all internet connections like WiFi and Mobile Data.
Then go to Settings> Apps and search for Google Play Services, Maps and Youtube. There delete the cache and data for those apps and uninstall them. For the Playstore just delete cache and data.
Open Root Explorer and install the Installer for the modified Playstore you downloaded from the first link.
After you installed it, launch the installer and select the very first Playstore offered on top. This will patch your Core.jar and replace your Playstore with the modified version.
After you got your Playstore replaced you can uninstall this installer again or keep it installed if you whish to revert back one day.
In CM9 open Root Explorer and go to System/Apps and delete there the Market-Updater.apk. (In CM10 it´s not present)
Now copy the Apps from the secound link into your App Backup & Restore backup folder.
Open App Backup & Restore and restore the older Google Play Services, Maps and Youtube.
Reboot your device and accept all the services.
Enable your internet connection, Launch Playstore and disable there all the notifications and autoupdates.
Just in case recheck if the Play Services didn´t got updated again. In this case go again to settings>apps and repeat the step above to delete Play Services. Finally restore them once more with App Backup&Restore.
Now you can use Maps and Youtube like before but without all the wakelocks keeping your phone active.
Last but not least greenify apps like maps, youtube or for example facebook.
This is a temporaly fix as long Google doesn´t fix this battery drain issue again.

[Q] Disable auto-updates without market

It just drives me crazy to have apps auto update especially on expensive data. For some reason my stock market doesn't work anymore at all in my phone, I tried to install a fresh download of market but still wont help so I removed it permanently from system apps and the phone became free of the so many force-close errors I was getting with most apps and runs very smoothly. I usually get apps through apk downloader. Am using sdext2 for the installed apps. Is there anyway of disabling apps from automatically updating themselves but have internet access for social media apps?
Problem solved, I got a terminal command that does it perfectly.
mod you can delete this now

Micro GAPPS for stock Chinese ROM (All variants)

Hey guys,
The default Chinese ROM does not come with WebView & if you tried to add a Google account with opengapps the whole thing would crash so you couldn't get very far. I thought Nubia was being deliberately difficult with getting Google onto the stock ROM but it turns out if you installed Google Stock it would work fine but wipe out a lot of the Nubia apps (Messaging, phone etc) and I rely on the messaging since I'm in China and it formats messages quite nicely if it recognizes them.
The reason Google Stock would work is because googlewebview was installed by default, whereas in anything below (pico, micro, mini etc) it wasn't. The solution was simple, take the micro gapps and ensure webviewgoogle and chrome are installed, so I've modified the installer script slightly and added the two apps to the 'must install with micro' list and also added the apps into the Core and GApps directories.
Maybe not too useful to you guys, especially those within the Google ecosystem, but all I needed was Google Play since it's mostly blocked here unless I use a VPN anyway. Having more Google Apps just causes more pain than it's worth.
Here's the first package, Micro Gapps with Chrome & Webview: https://mega.nz/#!nD5FRABB!fn2eduFXkHXk9LhL7mMwSOhIEDoXU14EBkkoexDm7ys
I will add an even smaller package (pico) later with the required mofications to get running under stock China.
Note this has been tested on 4.30 and 4.34, it should work on ROMs below if they're on Android 7.1.1
It will not work on the beta (开发板) as it's on 8.1
How to install?
Thank you for your reply!
Is this the full amount of GAPPS?
Install the same way you would install opengapps (install TWRP, root with TWRP, boot into phone, reboot into recovery, install the opengapps package above)
It's just micro with Chrome and Webview, the stock gapps from opengapps works without any modification!
Oh nice, good work! Thank you.
Does it still stuck sometimes on "downloading"?
Thanks for contributing. I actually want the contact and calendar sync to work. I ended up using opengapps full and it works. I don't need webview for the playstore but for some other apps. I ended up copying calendar provider and webview to /system/priv-app and everything seems to work except WhatsApp recognizing drive. It may need to be copied there too, the source is the less of options to set permission. Hope this helps.
