I know there's a lot of topics about this issue,
but I really haven't found a fix for it.

All of a sudden, a couple of days ago, anything I try to download off Market doesn't start, it just says "Download starting..." and hangs like that.
I am using wireless connection and I have used only wifi since I got the phone.

Problem occurred (maybe) as a result of these events:

- I have upgraded to the new radio (6.35) and SPL
- I have installed new radio ROM and used new google account to sign in (account2(at)gmail.com)
- I have downgraded radio and SPL
- I have returned to my old ROM by using nandroid restore (and in that ROM I have been using my first google account - account1(at)gmail.com)

So you can here see that the problem occurred after switching radios and switching gmail accounts.

Does anybody have any clue about how to fix this?

To repeat, I cannot download anything off the Market, download just hangs forever.

I had also faced some issues with market downloads.
For me it shows downloading.... for a long time but eventually it gets downloaded.

Wait time is also not fixed. Sometimes it gets downloaded immediately and sometimes it takes hours.

Problems with WIFI

It happened to me.
You should turn off WIFI wait for few seconds and enable WIFI again.
For me it worked.

Thanks for the answers, but unfortunately, I haven't had any luck with fixing the problem...

And the Google Talk fix isn't working (signing in on google talk fixes problem to some people, and downloads start immediately)

A poster in the Amon_RA Donut Rom thread commented that he tweaked with the APN settings and that worked. He did not elaborate. You can check that thread and maybe PM him. I forgot who he was.
