market install/update issues... any fix??

I hope someone has found a solution as NO ONE from GOOGLE seems to respond when I sent a support request.. I have not been able to download ANYTHING from the NEW market APP. I tried deleting the android_Secure, looking for the temp file people talk about, deleting cache and data etc. I have since FLASHED the OLD MARKET back. NOW, some APPS will install and SOME updates to apps will install. OTHER APPS and OTHER UPDATES will not install with the "install unsuccessful" message and OTHER apps will try to update but the phone will restart.

I see this listed all over on different forums and I am hoping someone has found a solution. It appears it is a wide spread issue. last night I was able to download a program from the market called FULLHDMI but today I tried to download SPRINT TOTAL PROTECTION APP and it downloads but doesnt install. Then I tried to update FULLHDMI and that worked but another app update didnt and finally a third app update rebooted the phone.

What is going on and how to resolve?? There has to be some kind of fix.

Thanks ....

The only thing that's helped restore updating/d'ling from market lately has been Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > *Click the ALL tab > Market > Clear Cache, Clear Data

for some reason I've encountered downloading/updating issues alot in the last few days but have not tried to update market beyond 2.2.11

Best of luck

Thats the first thing I tried.. HONESTLY, I think GOOGLE needs to step up and FIX this issue for us and tell us what to do. Its all over the google market forums, and MANY android forums, which means its a BIG ISSUE!
