Help Installation failed

I keep getting installation errors for apps on the market. I've tried to get jambase, yahoo mail, and ringdroid recently and they will download but when it's finished it says error. I'm using the i1 with boost and have version 1.5. Any ideas???


its "half baked" at least thats what mark over at the motorola forums calls it, it has parts of 2.1 baked into a 1.5 system. only phone I know of with these characteristics. basically it allows you to view and download some 2.1 compatible apps and then when the install fails you know its not your destiny and the frustration mounts so you went to a forum and here we all are!

This happens to me as well on boost I was reading that the android market updated their servers to give android users a more rich experience and to boost sales on market. This is why you now see apps like google maps, and gmail, and youtube, and skype and on and on. they let you download them but not install. I also read that this is an issue with the i1's software. Just another reason there needs to be an os update or a maintenance update something.
believe me when I tell you your not the only one. Motorola is supposedly looking into it. Lets hope the issue gets resolved quickly.
