Like many around here I picked up a Woot GTab and suffered the soft brick problem where one could not get past the Viewsonic screen on both Cyanogen7 and VEGAn-TAB, I finally was able to use NVFlash to go back to stock and then flash Cyanogen 7 this evening without any issues.

Now, I have (had actually) a working Cyanogen 7 install but the market (even after performing all market fix steps) will not function. I can load up the market normally, I can search and select apps to download, but once I select them for download, the download will hang and nothing will come down.

Out of frustration I flashed the ROM again over to VEGAn-TAB and while the device works fine otherwise, I experienced the same exact problem with the market. So right now I have VEGAn-TAB installed, it works fine, I can browse everything in the app market, but nothing will download. I'm fairly new to rooting (though I did it on the Nook Color with the SDK), but I've exhausted my search-fu on these forums and I'm going to break down and ask for advice. Anybody have suggestions of what to try next?
[G Tablet General] goodintentions:
With the market fix, in the first time sometimes it takes a few minutes. Just let it sit there while you go do something else. After the first time (which could take up to 10 minutes or so), all downloads after should be instantaneous. If you still have a problem, come back and we'll try something else.

PS - You currently do not have full market access. If you want to have full market access, you need to change in build.prop the line ro.something.device=whatever to ro.something.device=olympus. This will give you full access to everything.

Edit.

BTW, please tell us how you are applying the market fix. You need to do specific things in specific order. If you deviate from it, you will not get the right result.
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
Try to install cm7 or gingervegan and don't do the market fix. Do not restore any system data with Titanium if you are.
[G Tablet General] MisterSlanky:
Thanks for the responses guys.

I'm at work but I do have my device with me, so I can futz a bit, but not spend a lot of time working on it. I did originally try CM7 and VEGAn-TAB without the market fix, so that's been tried (no system restore either since it's a clean system and there's nothing to restore).

I followed the instructions found here for the market fix. I don't know if this is the "proper order" or not, but it was the link I found. I have also let the system sit for three hours and it continued to sit at the "Download starting" status. This has occurred on both CM and VEGAn-TAB. Is this even the standard market problem? I can see everything in the market, it's just I can't download what I can see.

One thing of note is that I did not change the build.prop the line ro.something.device=whatever to ro.something.device=olympus. I guess I'll go look that up, but as I've never actually changed the code, that's going to take some research. I'm curious though, if this isn't the standard market problem, will this fix it?
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
cm7 does not require the market fix. If you can get to the market and not download then something is borked on your tab. If you cant find the market then you need to install gapps.

Wait.....did you repartition your tab to anything other than 2048 and 0? If you did then that could be your problem
[G Tablet General] MisterSlanky:
Here's the order of what I tried.

I installed Clockwork Recovery .8 without any problems.

I tried to flash CM7 and couldn't get past the Viewsonic boot screen.

I tried the same with VEGAn-TAB with the same result.

I read a few threads and discovered I needed to use NVFlash to restore back to stock in order to get a GB Mod to work, which I did.

I then flashed CM7 and DID get past the boot screen and everything loaded up with no issues. At that point I had a 2048 and 0 partition.

I tried to access the Market with no problem, but I couldn't install software so I wiped and installed VEGAn-TAB. This install was also on a 2048 and 0 partition.

The VEGAn-TAB install had the identical problem that the CM7 install had, I could see everything in the market, but couldn't install, so I wiped again back to a 2048 and 0 partition again and reinstalled CM7.

On the second install of CM7 I tried to do the market fix, but without the modification to the build.prop. This didn't do anything.

I repartitioned again to 4096 and 256 (off of the suggestion on another thread I found) and did the market fix (off the instructions I found here) which did involve modifying the build.prop file. Marketplace still functions exactly as it did before.

I can find the market. I can open the market. I can search the market and find all sorts of apps (all of them by the looks of it). I can select apps for download. Once I do so the app will stick at a status of "starting download..." and it will not install, even after letting it sit for three hours (I was in a meeting, it wasn't that big of a deal). On a side note, I can load apps over Windows and then opening the .apk file manually without a problem.

I read somewhere trying another different Google ID, which is about where I am right now, either that or throwing my hands up in frustration.
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
Its not this hard. If you install cm7 and then gapps it should just work. It doesnt need a market fix or a build.prop change.

You will definitely have problems if you are partitioned at 4096 and 256. 2048 is the only setting that works and android doesnt use swap so 256 is a waste.

Just a stupid question? You are install gapps on your tablet and not trying to install apps through the web market?

Try logging into your Gmail account on your tab before messing with the market
[G Tablet General] topgunpix:
Market fix not the same as you need

There are a lot of suggestions here that do not address your problem: You can open the market, search and find apps, but they will not download....

This has nothing to do with any market fix (where you cannot see or search for specific apps like "Launcher Pro" or "Dolphin HD Browser"...

What I think is happening is the market app is trying to use your Cell Phone for downloading, not your WiFi. (I know that you can connect and see the market over Wifi....) I had the same problem myself after flashing VEGAn Gingerbread + pershoot's latest. Gtab has no cell phone.....

Funny thing is the Amazon market works fine.

My problem seemed to fix itself after a day or so, (after flashing pershoots Froyo overclocking kernal) there is no setting I can find to force the market to use wifi downloading. I cannot say what I did or didn't do.

I'm planning on waiting a day or so, to see if the problem clears up by itself again. If anyone knows a better fix, please post!

Thanks
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
Im afraid any suggestion that we make at this point won't address any of his problems.

But he could try this

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=13123887&postcount=427

or

Make sure time and date on your tab are correct
[G Tablet General] topgunpix:
Thanks

My date and time were OK, I was able to connect and download from another wifi service outside of work. I usually have no problem d'loading apps while on the visitor VPN, but possibly market needs to connect once and then it's fine.

Thanks for your help.
[G Tablet General] bsinc1962:
I had the same problem with seemingly every rom I was using. The apps would show up in the market but would stall out while downloading. I tried all the fixes. Tried loading Google talk/voice but still no luck.

I ended up going back to stock with MVflash and starting over.

I'm currently using this rom: http://www.udrom.com/forum/index.php?/files/file/213-gtablet-330/

and really like it. The market shows pretty much everything and I didn't have to do a market fix. The only issue I'm having is that a couple of my apps don't fill the screen completely like mobile banking but I can live with that for now.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swimminsurfer256:
So there is now a general list of most of the kernels available.. but what about Mods? Stuff like the modified boot menu (which I just flashed :)). It would be nice (if possible) if there were a list of single/individual mods for things that people randomly have preferences for (e.g. 4 or 6 bars for signal strength and circle or regular battery etc).

Anyone else agree?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chingy51o:
this is too hard to do as every rom has different frameworks, apks etc. cant really make a "general" mod that will work for everyone.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swimminsurfer256:
Nonono not a general mod! A list of mods that each do single, specific things.

*edit* nevermind I see what you are saying. But would it be too difficult to do something like the Mod for the expanded boot menu? There were only two versions (one for deodex and one for odex) that worked pretty broadly.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patdroid1:
agreed would be nice...but sooooo difficult!!!

what's a mod???

a single icon change??? how about a group of icons??? transparent pulldown bar??? how bout translucent pulldown??? theme's, icons, skins, deodexed, odexed, sense, non-sense, aosp...

it's just too much
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swimminsurfer256:
I was thinking more along the lines of just the single icon change ones. I guess it would be quite a bit :/

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feuertier:
Thanks for the responses. I should have mentioned the things I had already tried. Among them was going to the device in Bluetooth Settings, long-clicking on it, going to options, and noting that in Profiles it says it is connected to "phone audio". I also have the Q1 bluetooth app installed. I've tried clearing the device from the phone, rebooting, etc. I have not tried going back to stock, yet, though I may.

All non-phone audio goes through the phone speakers.

On a side note, again, because I can't post this in dev, when I do 24-hour mode, the status bar pushes most of the clock off screen to the right. In 12-hour mode, the status bar clock is properly aligned/justified. This is something I set after I installed SyndicateROM, so I can't claim it wasn't like that in stock EC05. However, I haven't been able to find that issue posted, either because it is not common, or I haven't searched the right terms.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feuertier:

First of all i'd like to thank anyone who takes time to answer this because this has been driving me nuts for the past 2 days.

Now that thats out of the way; I have a Droid 2 and i'd consider myself a noob with this phone. I rooted the phone yesterday and had problems with ROM manager flashing cwm 2.5.0.8, so what i did was downloaded cwm3 off the internet and moved it onto my SD, renamed cwm3 to 2.5.0.8 and all of a sudden my recovery system works. Once i got that all taken care of i began messing with ROMs. My brother put the beta version of tanzanite on and bricked my phone, i fixed that. Once i got rid of tanzanite i tried using gingerblur 1.3 and got stuck in a bootloop. Right now im in the process of trying to use gummyjar 2.5. More so to the point, what my main question is, is since i'm using clockworkmod 3 would that restrict my phone from being able to use any semi-older ROM versions such as the ones previously stated?
