And now they won't download after doing a factory data :smileysad: so far I can't download/update Origami rose, daisy, etc. OR Pocket Legends. I was able to redownload Pandora, and some other apps has test subjects, but thenn there's also apps that I've never dowloaded that I couldn't download still.

Things I've done to attempt resolution:
* *228 option 2
* Factory Data Reset
* Factory Data Reset while entering a new Gmail account.

My ally runs 2.2.1
My Market is 2.3.6

Anyone else haveing a problem??

Have you tried logging into the web based Market with your Google Email account and pushed the apps from there?

I was having trouble with apps updating for a few days, but it seems to have cleared up.

I tried a few things, nothing as drastic as a reset.

I came to the conclusion that were (and maybe still is) problems with the app market.

And my apps have been updating just fine for the last couple of days.

I really hate to give false hope but lately I have noticed Market issues, but last time the market seem to restrict access to market the way it have lately it was being updated for Droid X Froyo update...    Maybe another update is coming.. :smileywink::smileysurprised::smileyvery-happy:

I think that is in reference to post #2 in this thread (aka my post). I was referring to where you can sign in to your gmail account through the web based Market and select the applications you want to install and somehow the application would start to install on your phone after you clicked the install button and accepted the permissions on the website.

That usually happens when apps have been installed and removed that leaves information from previous install still present...  I have a habt ti either manually remove these files or occationally copy data and format card to avoid this because I test a number of apps so software gets loaded and unloaded quite a bit on my device.

Its an application that came with my Ally, not sure if other droid device(might also be calling it the wrong name too lol) but it seems to be LG's solution as Ally isnt avaliable to have Adobe.
