Windows Marketplace cannot connect to server

[resinis]

after getting my tp2 setup with a LEAD rom, i cannot access windows marketplace. i get that notorious error "cannon connect to marketplace server, try again in a few hours"

i have found online that changing the Aku to .5.3.00 is supposed to fix it... i did that, but it did not work.

so i proceeded to upgrade the radio on my phone, using the latest sprint radio rom. it helped my reception greatly, which im thrilled about, but marketplace still wont connect.

now im thinking that if the radio upgrade was what was needed, maybe my aku is wrong now? what should my aku value supposed to be?

any help would be GREAT, as i relied heavily on marketplace to get my apps

i think marketplace is shutdown maybe?

I've just downloaded the cabs to sd card, which apps do you use? you can find most of them cabbed up and online somewhere

PC version for sure is dead.

yeah thats really the worst part too- you cant access the marketplace via PC anymore, they shut that down.

so if the marketplace app doesnt work on your phone (which is EXTREMELY common), then you have no way to use the service. add that to the fact that MS doesnt allow marketplace to save programs to SD card and you can easily call this an epic failure... there must have been lots of money lost...

ive tried everything. i guess i need to just give up on this and use the forums to browse what apps i want

Or buy a wp7 and use that market.

Yeah, I just confirmed mine isn't working either.
The cab I installed had the option to install to storage card but if it's not working now then what's the point.
You could use:

Or the OMarket app.

Sucks they pulled the plug on you remaining winmo users.

I just need the pageonce cab. Can't find it anywhere after hours of searching. even their website refers you back to marketplace. I could give a rat's ass about the others I used to install. I'm sure if I really wanted to find them I could. My marketplace hasn't worked for days or with different ROMs, so it's definitely on their end.

Jaja nice one @Tinkerbell but yea the marketplace is shut down and has been for about a month now. They've sent emails nonstop to all WM device users since the initial announcement.
