[Q] SEARCHED - Just installed Cognition - market won't download a thing - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Google talk won't sign in at all. Gmail account added just fine. Market APPEARS to be fine but after clicking download, it just never starts and eventually gives a DOWNLOAD UNSUCCESSFUL notification.
Any thoughts? This is my gf's phone and she's getting peeved.

First, this should be in q&a
To answer ur question, try going to settings-applications-manage... find market and clear data
Try the same for gtalk

Tried that, no dice. What DID end up working was a factory reset through the menus, then adding the gmail account by opening the market as opposed to MENU/SETTINGS/ACCOUNTS & SYNC.
For whatever reason this solved the problem. Shrug.

[Q] Apps stuck in market

I have two games stuck in market download. "Sniper" and "ScooterHero". They are always showing as 0% downloading. If I try to cancel them, market FCs. I tried uninstalling them and then going back to market, same thing. Before I attempt a reflash of gapps and/or ROM, is there anything else to try?

I had a similar problem twotwo of my apps kept downloading. What you have to do is clear data on the market. Go to setting applications manage applications then click market and clear data. It should take like two days and a couple reboots of your phone. But after that it should be fine.

How come I don't see maps requiring an update? I haven't done an update all because of said bug and I know that new Maps 5.0 was released. Do I need to reflash a new gapps for the new maps?

FB annoying as F***

Alright, so I let my friend play with my phone and he logs in his facebook on my phone via the FB app. I keep getting notifications from him and me now and it's REALLY annoying. I keep getting ALL his notificiations on my phone I cleared my cache, tried uninstalling FB, and everything. idk what to do.
As crazy as it may sound if u havent pulled the battery i would give that a go. Also it may have "synced" your account with his. I think in the options sumwhere it gives you a choice to disable the sync with contacts. Not sure but a thought.
I have kind of the same issue. I personally user FB, but for some reason I keep getting notification and email. I even went into my FB account and removed everything for notification, but they still keep coming.
Clear the data/cache for the Facebook app

Wow. I really hope by "everything" you mean you already tried logging out out in the FB settings in the app.
I would log onto his account and "come out" then just log out.

Seriously?
Accounts and Sync, click the FB account - REMOVE. / FB app main screen, menu button - LOGOUT.
Not working?
Try clearing cache and data of the FB app.
Open FB app and go to the main screen - menu, settings, get rid of all notifications.
No offense, but I sincerely hope you're new to android.

[Q] Can't download any from market

I have rooted captivate. since yesterday I can't download or update anything from market. It keeps saying 'starting downloads' and happens nothing. Even sometimes it says your item will be downloaded but again happens nothing.
I use black market too. Does it make my 'market' fail now? I don't have a clue...please help me.
Hey try re flashing the rom you have and see if that works, its worked for me before.

Make sure the Google Talk services are running.
Steps to try:
1) Clear market data, retry downloads.
2) Depending on the rom you are on, Froyo build, you may not have a unique Android ID. If this is the case, download Android ID Changer and change the ID to something other than seen. Next time you flash stock, get your unique Android ID and write it down so you can use in the future.
Good luck.
I didn't get Froyo yet, and I just rooted in order to get the permission of installing apps freely. so I didn't do anything with roms. And I realized that Google talk is not working. I never played that app becuase I'm using kakaotalk. It says signing in...but nothing happens. How can I erase maket data then. I think I should have study more before rooting. How does goolge talk running related to market?

Both the market and Google talk use this service called
Google Talk Service (or something like that)
If you use a program that blocks startup programs make sure both google talk and its service are greenlisted. In addition try to stop using any task killers to see if that is the problem.
And the massage "Sorry! The process com.google.process. gapps has stopped unexpectedly. please try again." comes out from time to time with 'force close' button.
What does it mean?

I think it is tied to GMail sync which is also tied to the Google Talk service I believe.
I uninstalled apps have chances auto killing that process. They are one click lag, auto killer memory, but nothing changed after rebooting. Even the same error message came out as soon as rebooted. The odd thing is that that task is still running when i check with android hackers. How can I control the start up apps?

try using an app called "start up auditor"
Oh my Gosh!! I love XDA developers friends!! Thanks diablo, nbs !! I just found out other thread with same issue and fixed beautifully my captivate.
Here is what I did. I downloaded google talk services apps from here, and copy them to systems/app, and reboot. They are automatically downloading all the accumulated failed downloading after rebooting. I might have deleted some gtalk related apps by mistake. Hooray!!
Thanks all!!

No problem! The same thing happened to me a while back because I accidentally startup audited the service.

Google Play Store problem?

I have a Sprint HTC One, I'm running it rooted and with a custom rom. It used to work fine until about 5-6 days ago my Google Play Store App would not display any apps at all. I would go in and everything would be blank. I've Factory reset phone, wiped phone, I've tried 3 different ROMS and am having the same problem with all 3 (Rage, DigitalKarmaZen, and Stock+Goodies) With Rage I would get just a blank store, Zen and Stock the store immediately closes. I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find a fix. I'm really hoping I can find a fix so I can get the store working again. My phone is S-ON for what that's worth, I don't quite know the difference or if it matters

I'm using TWRP I go into Wipe and go to Advanced and check everything except the last option which says something about USB which I wasn't sure what that was. So I think I'm wiping it properly. I'm not 100% on that though

Hmm. While this isn't the source of your problem, why would you do that? A wipe of cache, dalvik and /system is all you need, I believe.
The basic wipe in TWRP is enough, and all I ever used as a flashaholic.
I tried that at first without the advanced wipe but it didn't work so I figured I'd just try to wipe everything and see if it helped lol

OK. So lemme get this straight. You downloaded a (sense) ROM. You did a full wipe. You flashed it. You booted. You set everything up the way HTC/Google told you to. Then, Play Store wouldn't work?

Correct. It was not instant though. Google Play had been working for a couple weeks and then recently it stopped working.
Looks like the Play Store has me marked as a different country or something?
I did a wipe and reinstalled Rage (The only one I could get to show Google Play store at all), opening up Play Store still no apps showing, but I can search for apps as long as I type exactly what it's called (IE: I can search for facebook but I have to type "Face" and click on the facebook icon once it pops up, otherwise it doesn't allow me to search for apps. And when I click on the app it says "This item isn't available in your country"
I'll try to do some research with this new info but if anyone has any idea on it, some advise would be greatly appreciated
Also I created a brand new GMail account thinking it might have been something to do with my GMail account I was using or something.

That's what I wanted to say, but I thought it so unlikely.
Go to wallet.google.com and check your stuff. Also check in accounts.google.com.

[HOW-TO] Unlock FB Contact Photos in 3rd Party Apps (Root Required)

I've been seeing a lot of posts from people complaining about how their FB contact photos don't appear in 3rd party apps such as Messaging or Google Voice. I've attached an APK that will alleviate this issue. Root access will be required and should work in both Sense and AOSP ROMs. For more information about the APK, check out the link below.

Did you grant it root access? Try going into SuperSU and resetting the default action for the app. What ROM are you on? I'm using Badboys and it's working fine.
I got it to work, Google and Facebook were syncing my contacts like crazy. Thanks for posting this!

Try rebooting your phone (so that no other apps are accessing your contacts database) and run photo unlocker really quick.

I didn't even notice there was an issue with contact photos until I saw this thread.
Anyway, this didn't work for me, either. I tried the same things, multiple times. No dice.
I decided to install HaxSync instead and now everything is fine. Its a paid app, but works great. I bought it a long time ago for my Moto Photon, when it couldn't sync contact photos with Facebook on CM9.
