Help Androird market Not downloading. [Resolved: ports were blocked. International user]

[nanio]

Hello, a have issues with downloading aps from Android Market via Wi-Fi. When I try to Update or Download any app it says "Starting Download" and stays like that forever. My only way of using market is via "Mobile Network" which is provided by the mobile operator. But I don`t have data plan and 1MB is 1$ which is a lot So I have read most of the topics and here is a list of things i tried:
1.Log in Google talk - works fine without crashing - So this is not the problem.
2.Clear download manager and any updates.
2.Clear cache and all data from market app.
3.Did factory reset - 2 times.
4.Unmount SD card.

My Evo 3d has no root or any tweeks. It is brand new and not locked to any networks. I tried with 2 Wi-Fi networks (my home network and a public one) but they were using the same Internet Provider. I used to have HTC Wildfire and it was woriking just fine with my home Wi-Fi network.

I`ll apreciate any help

Hello and welcome to the forum. The problem is clearly with your device radio not being able to get the proper connection to do what needs to be done. If you are trying different WiFi connections and still having this problem, then you may have a defective radio as well - which might need to be looked at by a technician. Here are some other things you can try: In the wifi settings Tap menu for more options. Read through carefully to see if anything has been disabled. Settings - Wireless & Networks - WiFi settings - Menu - Advance - Best WiFi performance

Thanks for the advice but nothing helped I may mislead you - my Wi-Fi is working just fine. I browse the web very fast. So there is no hardware problem with my radio device. I searched the web and found out that a lot of people are having exactly the same problem.
I`ve never supposed that there is a "Advanced settings menu" in Wi-Fi settings. I browse and everything should be the way it is. Checked "Best WiFi performance" but it didn`t help, so I remove it because it will short my battery life. Is it necessary all in all? I want to use the fone for at least 2 days without recharge
I suppose that the problem may be in my Internet Provider or my home router. It may block porst being used by phone for Android market. I double checked router settings - ok and no firewall. But I was using this Wi-Fi network with my old Wildfire. Any chance every HTC model use different ports for Android Market?

Rush Lindsay thanks for hint

Ensure your router is enabled to allow port forwarding on 5228.

Can you please help me with settings? I`m attaching img of my router settings. I don`t know which are "Incoming Ports"

 

[jerofld]

Check under system tools. See if there is a logging section that may be recording errors, so you know what the incoming port is.

I've had this box checked on my device ever since... I also have WiFi enabled all the time - with these two features on, my wireless internet (wifi) works much better. I have yet to see a difference with my battery life. These batteries suck with these features on or off.

I really don't know why you are not able to get access to the Android market. Is this the only problem you are having

to the OP,

where are you located? are you in the US? mexico? UK? etc..?

what carrier?

where did you purchase the handset? have you tried a factory reset?

have you tried menu - settings - applications - manage applications - all apps - find market and clear data and do the same for market updater

reboot and open market, let apps load and try to update again

Thank you guys the problem is only in my IT provider. Today tried via different Wi-Fi network with different internet provider and it works just fine. It seems, that it block some DNS adreses or specific ports.
I appreciate all the advices!

P.S. My location is Bulgaria and network operator Mtel.
