Anyone else having an issue using market?
- Thread starter ekeefe41

I've been getting that intermittently as well. Closing Market, hit a website on the browser, go back to the market and stop then start the download usually fixes it.
Reboot did not fix it for me, but Disconnect on IRC gave a good hint:
- Reboot into recovery console (home+power and then Alt+x)
- mount /data
- Delete all dex files in /data/dalvik-cache
- Reboot and the issue should be fixed
The last reboot takes quite a while because it needs to recreate some of the dex files.
Do NOT try this with the phone powered up in standard mode!! You will lose space because of a bug in the filesystem module. ONLY do this in the recovery console!

I tried this from the recovery console and now after the initial reboot the market completely crashes when opening it.
I do have my /data/app, /data/app-private, and /data/data all moved over to my SDCard not sure if that could be causing the issue.
Hmm. Haven't tested this with anything moved, but it shouldn't crash. If you deleted just the dex files, then they should be recreated automatically.
Btw: I tested this on JFv1.43_Holiday after upgrading (without wiping) through all ADP versions starting with JF1.41. Certainly helped me and fixed it for good.
May I suggest you ask Disconnect on freenode #android? He told me about this.
