Are you having problems with Android Market, like Android Market force closing, Android Market opens and closes after sometime or the downloading of a application stalling / paused at “Starting Download…” screen and starts after a very long time. Then here are the two solutions you could apply to get rid of the above mentioned problems with Android Market.
- The above can be caused if you are having problems with GApps. A simple solution is just to Sign In to Google Talk on your Android phone. And you will see that immediately all your applications will start downloading!
- Secondly if your Android Market is force closing or closes after 10-15 seconds, then you should clear the cache of your Market.
- Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> (tap on Menu key and Select Filter) -> select “All”
- Scroll to “Market” (don’t open the Android Market application) and tap on it
- Tap Clear Cache
Now you should be able to use Android Market normally.

Please suggest some way of solutino.
Thank You.
Another possible cause is the router itself.
I had my router set up to block certain webpages – nothing to do with the market.
When I removed all the filters/blocks the market started working again.
Perhaps the extra filtering of the router blocking was interfering?
