hi

ive had the "cant establish a data connection" and couldnt get in to the market at all.

i couldnt sign into my google account either but i did fix it by being rooted and with root explorer deleted the file in data/data/com.google providers settings.

i then rebooted then it worked no problem but im not saying this is your solution this just worked for me

regards
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
i've had that problem once

but it went away after i got a good WiFi connection.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dark-Master:
Thank you.

Will that make any changes to some of system settings? I just want to know that if it doesn't work for me, will it affect my system stability? I will give a try for this. Thanks again.

I'm not sure about this. But I could say that it's good enough to access all google services over my PC or my Android excluded a problem I have, and the Wi-Fi access point itself gave us a good signal quality, oh I forgot to mention that it's my own home Wi-Fi. But I will give a try at other public access points if I can't fix this yet.

Thank you for your suggestion.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Nirvana388:
This is a very common problem, and fortunately is easy to fix. All that you have to do is setup your Google checkout account on your PC first, then you can login to it through the market on the phone.

https://checkout.google.com/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dark-Master:
I already have my Google Checkout setup with my credit card since a year ago. And my card is still fine. :eek:

"Default shipping address" and "Default payment method" infos are correct too.

:(

-----------------

I tried hardreset my phone and start everything from scratch. When the phone started, the first thing I did is adding my Google Account to my phone.

And then again when I press "Buy" button, it asked me again, I just signed-in to my Google Account a moment ago and it asked me again omg. OK, that was ok, atleast I can sign-in and then there was a "Buy" button again.

When I press that button(after it asked me to sign-in once) it asked me to sign-in again! Now I'm in the infinite sign-in loop after the Buy button. It's like "Buy > sign-in > Buy > sign-in > Buy > sign-in > Buy > sign-in > Buy" and it never ends and it occurs without a single error.

:D I don't know what to do anymore.

Oh, I'm sorry. I totally forgot to mention that I'm using Market Enabler, really sorry. Does it have anything to do with this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] thebazman:
hi

if you delete the file then reboot and it doesnt work it will generate the file again and it will be in same place.

i think the file just contains google login data and when you delete it, reboot and when you sign in it generates the file again.

if someone knows different please reply

so no it doesnt mess with the settings

regards
[Galaxy S I9000 General] psychedelic'd:
I got that error when I tried to setup a Google account for the first time. Try pulling out your SIM and just use WIFI. Not sure if it'll work for your situation though since you're using market enabler.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Dark-Master:
Thank you all. I'll try again, hope I find my solution, the sooner the better. :)

[Q] Market problem at the moment?

Hi guys,

anyone is expecting download problem in the market at the moment?

I just installed the JM6 and I got "download failed" from a lot of market apps....

is this a rom issue or is there some problem with google market sometimes?

thanks

ivan

(i'm trying to download noLED right now and the download stuck at 11%.....)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
nope, because i just downloaded a whole lot of upgrades for many of my installed apps

but you can try booting into recovery mode

wipe cache

then boot back to android OS

that will fix the problem

because i had the exact same problem yesterday, and that's what i did to make it work again
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Narcissus85:
thanks for the trick..i just cleared the cache but no way to download at the moment...

trying wiht noLED and shazam encore..

i really can t understand why ........ :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
what error message do you get?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] heru:
I have the same problem, since couple of hours my download were unsuccesull :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Narcissus85:
"download unsuccesful"

:confused:

i'm wiht jm6 (+ lagfix) ...over wifi or 3g doesent matter....i receive a "lot of download unsuccessful"...only sometimes i can start or complete the download...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Narcissus85:
oh...maybe there's some problem in the market at the moment.......mmm

i try to clear cache of the market

clear data of download manager

but no way to download at the moment....

i can only wait :p
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sciacallo010:
Yesterday i had the same problem (jm2+lag fix)

Then i removed the lag fix and after that, it worked
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bec07:
Same here, JPC...

Maybe it's google and not us.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Narcissus85:
I hope it's google... : >

i'm flashing tooo much times in those 2 days :(

now i want to be stable on the jm6 and i found this problem ehhe....

mmmm is it ok to do those things?

1 "Checkin Service" then select "clear data"

2 "Download Manager" then select "clear data"

3 " Market" then select "clear cache"

i mean...if it's a google problem i lost something doing that clearing data/cache?

(i did the wipe cache form the recovery mode too)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] heru:
I just flashed JH1 and trying to reinstall all my apps. I reset and wiped the cache after I flashed and just now wiped the cache again, but still the same problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
it must be google, if everyone is getting it at the same time

but i had that issue yesterday, and after doing the WIPE CACHE option in RECOVERY MODE

then everything worked back to normal
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Hrc4u:
been expereing market issues now and then since last week...my friend who runs stock htc desire also had issues...so problem is on the other side :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Narcissus85:
ok i was worried that i do something wrong with lagfix or something...

I lost something doing the wipe cache in recovery mode and the other data/cache clear that i reported in the other post?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
definitely not market, i just installed SwiFTP Server, to verify if this was true or not

no problems at all

updating topic http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765081
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
the wipe cache should only do wipe cache, nothing else

you should have not lost any actual data

unless you did wipe data
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bec07:
Nope, try harder. Some work the first time, some the second and some the 10th...

Yes I'm really persistent... does anyone know an app that limits your calls for numbers starting with 054(example) or so...

I really want to limit my outside my network conversations.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
I've been having issues too, and I am running a stable rom..

@Allgamer. That doesn't mean much.. Market might be running on a DNS round robin and some nodes might be dropping offline and online
[Galaxy S I9000 General] An1mA:
This is strange, dunno if its because the JPC. But I cant download any "Google" apps from the market and the barcode scanner from "ZXing team" as well. I can select them to download, but nothing happends or they say download fail.

But others app I can download fine, which is strange to me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Narcissus85:
At the moment seem back ok... I can download without errors..
[Galaxy S I9000 General] aaronlivo:
I'm having the same problems at the moment and my phone isn't rooted, just running it as I got it out of the box. Its hit and miss at the moment as some work and others say unsuccessful download yesterday everything ran fine
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Narcissus85:
No in recovery mode i only wipe the cache not the data/factory reset.

but first i do those things:

1 "Checkin Service" then select "clear data"

2 "Download Manager" then select "clear data"

3 " Market" then select "clear cache"

so i clear some data of download manager and checking service...it can be a problem??

(and...if u can...what do exatly a cache wipe?)

HELP! Broken market, cant figure out what to do

Out of the blue my phone started exhibiting a few horrible problems

- The wallpaper reset to factory default, and does not let me change it. I can change it to live wallpapers, but that is it. It doesn't matter how I try to change it, it has no effect.

- Android market does not run. It sits at a white screen for 10 seconds then force closes

Note, I had not rooted my phone or done any modifications when this occured.

To try to fix it, I rooted my phone, and cleared the davik cache of the whole OS - but it did not help. I also went into the market app and cleared it's cache, this did not help either.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

EDIT: Tried running this command I found on the web, but it says 'Bad Address" ?? WTF?

rm -r /data/data/com.android.vending/databases

rm failed for /data/data/com.android.vending/databases, Bad address

[Galaxy S I9000 General] danmullen:
I've been unable to download from the Market for most of the last week. I fixed it this morning by clearing a few caches - Market, Talk... - stopping those apps/services and then signing out and back into Google Talk. Not sure if all those steps were required, but just clearing the caches didn't work for me when I tried a few days ago.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] brunes:
It's the stock JH2 bell firmware... I have not modded anything at all.

then how do you explain me being able to download and install apps all day long?

the fix is simple, just clear the cache from the recovery screen

[Q] Unstabel Market

Hello everyone,

I hope that this is the right forum to look for help in. ..? I have in each case solved all previous problems by searching through this forum, but I could not find any threads about this problem ....

I have an SGS as the initial backlog to download new Apps down ... First, it could not download some apps at all and after a long conversation with Samsung support did they exchange my phone.

The new phone had downloaded one app from the market so closed it down ... and I stood in a situation where I could not find help, but fortunately I found this forum ...

I have root and flashed the phone several times and with many different firmware versions (everything from JM6 - android 2.2 XXJP1, JP2 and JP3 with various "Fix", etc.

But I still have (at best) a very unstable apps market.

I've never had trouble getting on the market (good enough, I have experienced that I could not be allowed to approve the terms of Google market as did that I could not get in - but this was remedied by flashing again)

I can also often find the apps and download them, but then things go wrong ... either I can not therefore be allowed to download them or can I download them but are not allowed to install them

I have also tried with various market fix a la Erin, but thise dosent help me eighter....

Is there any of you guys ho can help me???

Thanks in advance...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dupel:
Dont really know how to help.. Just one wild guess - how good internet do you have (wifi or 3g?) Maybe it just doesnt have enough speed...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] johnyboo:
having the exact same problem...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] danmullen:
I can't download anything from the Market either. I thought I'd fixed this problem the other day by clearing various caches and forcing a number of apps and services to stop, such as Market, Talk, etc. However, after a day of working fine it's gone back to not being able to download :(
[Galaxy S I9000 General] falkenhard:
It dosent matter if im on wifi or 3G have a very good wifi connection, and offent the phone download the apps but cant install them...

So i dont think its the connection...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] hondaguy:
i was having this issue last night and today and last friday night and saturday! last week i noticed i could not download anything from the market, paid or not. i had flashed from jh2 to jm6 the day before and all was well. last sat morning i still couldnt download anything so i decided to flash back to jh2 and once i did the market was fine again.

last night i had the same issue again and i was using jm6 and again this morning i still couldnt download anything. i tried clearing the market cache and turning the phone on and off a few times with no success. i read the comments in this post and tried clearing the cache from recovery mode and i also signed out and back in to gtalk and low and behold it worked. not sure which one it was but i can now download apps from the market again.

thanks guys

Market problem

Hi All,

I have the problem with android marketplace. I can not find all the apps. I downloaded paypal application on my phone a few days ago. Yesterday i flashed my phone with the I9000XWJM7 firmware and now I can't find it on the market. My friend has SE xperia10 and he can do it but i can't. Could you help me and tell me what might me the answer for it please? One more question anybody knows which CSC I have to use for Republic of Ireland? Thanks for answer.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrewluecke:
Not sure about your CSC, but it might be because JM7 hasn't been added to Google's list of authorised ROM's yet (not sure).
[Galaxy S I9000 General] HEKTIK:
You're not the only one - There are quite a few apps that I would LOVE to have on my brand new Galaxy S but they're not available on the market despite friends having downloaded them :(

No Google Earth, No PayPal, No Skype

There's nothing worse than seeing a review of a fantastic app that over 250k people have downloaded or something that you REALLY need to have only to find it's not available :(

I've heard good stories about the AppBrain market so you could try that too? Having said that, I get "The requested item could not be found" on all the interesting stuff there too LOL!

I'm not new to phones but I am to Android and it's not been a very good experience so far!

I'm missing my old iPhone more and more each day but it's gone now :(

EDIT: I got my Simfree unbranded Galaxy S on eBay and it came with I9000XXJP1 - Could this be the cause??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ufuuu:

Hi,

Since the day i got my galaxy s i am trying to update my Google Maps. But i cannot find it in the market. what ever i searched or even when i use QR code it just says there's nothing available.

even i tried the http://www.google.com/mobile/maps/ and tried to get it from there. when i click download from android market it just searches and says cannot find anything...

oh by the way i am from Sri Lanka if that helps

Change your SIM-ID, for example to US or UK region. You can make it with programm called MarketAccess.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] huxflux2003:
You will need to root your phone. Then download market enabler. It lets you choose and change your network ID, so that you can access apps that are available in other countries/networks.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] lasitha85:
thanks for the reply... does MarketAccess app available in Market? beacuse i searched but it's not there :(

My Market quit working today. Any ideas? Bell + JH2

I get an immediate Force Close upon opening Market. Furthermore, when I boot up these two apps immediately force close:

com.sec.android.appsamsungapps.una

com.seven.Z7 (which says it's Social Hub)

The last app I installed was NoLED but the problem didn't occur immediately after that install so I don't know if its related. Either way I uninstalled it which didn't fix the problem.

Any ideas? I don't much want to wipe.

I'm not rooted nor lagfixed.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
NoLED is not the cause

just clean up your cache, then it'll work again

[Q] Android Market Problem (for unsupported countries)

Hi,

I am living in Turkey and Turkey is not officially supported on Android Market.At first,my galaxy s doesn't have market app so I have installed it first.Then,I got "downloading" nightmare,so did a lot of research.Shortly,clearing caches,removing sd cards/sim and so on did not help.

Now,I suspect that this may be related to some country restriction.Am I correct ?

I believe that I can find a "cure" for my problem in this forum.

Just a suggestion and it might not work but can't you download the AppBrain apk, install it using the pc and use AppBrain to get apps?

I'm not sure if AppBrain requires Market installed to work but if not then i figure its just like looking at the market through a different set of eyes :)

If i lost Market tomorrow but still had AppBrain, I wouldn't mind at all. I feel AppBrain suggests better things and works far better anyway.

Maybe someone more knowledgeable has a better idea?
