[Q] Unable to Download from AndroidMarket

[sattvic2780]

Hi,

I have this issue for the past one week.
The APP downloads starts and stalls. The downloads are stuck at 'Starting Download'. I have been using captivate for the past one month, everything was ok until past one week.

I am unable to figure out whether the issue is with my mobile or something to do with my gmail account.... No idea.

Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance.

Well, I've uninstalled google talk application. Is this creating an issue?

Google talk is in some way used by the market, though I am unsure exactly how...
Generally the fix to this issue would be to go into settings, applications, manage applications, and then clear cache/clear data/force close the following apps: Market, Google Talk, checkin service.
Then reboot phone.
Unfortunately you have installed google talk... Oops ;-) don't know what to tell you there.
If you installed with Titanium Backup, donate and then restore, if you installed by some other method you may be able to sideload an apk of google talk on to your phone...

Shut off the phone. Hold down the up and down volume button and then press the on/off button... When the phone comes on, keep holding the up/down button and relesae the on/off button. A screen will pop up and then you can release the volume button. Using the up/down volume button, scroll down to clear the cache... then hit the on/off button. That may help...

Is there a difference between using wifi and 3g? I know that sometimes the market will refuse to intall via wifi and then i just use airplane mode kill the market turn off airplane mode and then use 3g to download. It fixes the issue most of the time.
