Help Marketplace stuck on "starting download"

[tbenson81]

For the past day, I cant download anything from the marketplace. Any app I try just gets stuck on "starting download"

Did the latest firmware screw up my phone?

Market problems are being reported around various forums for the past day or so, tbenson; I doubt if it has to do with an OTA, but we never know, do we?

You are not alone. Sometimes it has been doing the same for me, I think it is google. You may want to try to cancel and restart it, that usually works for me.

Great info, gme. I've reposted it in a similar Verizon thread.

Try it again, and restart phone. If that doesn't work, I'd call this number, which gets you to top tier Sprint tech support.
