a bundle with RESTORE_TRANSACTIONS just kicks back with a response
RESULT_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE. So if i make the purchase, it can go through if i
store it on purchase state changed, if i uninstall/reinstall, i cant retrieve
it.
If it fails on purchase state changed and i launch the app on a pre 3.0.27
market on dif device, i can restore transactions. Always going back to device
with 3.0.27 fails to restore though.

ok this is pretty whack. Basically i found a way to make this work on 3.0.27
and it has to do with the length of the package name.
First off, i tried an in-app purchase with a random product out there already
(tank wars) and the package name is com.rainbow.Wowo2
For privacy, ill list the number of characters in two test drafts that were
experiencing the issue
[3].[6].[11] and
[3].[10].[11]
I then went to spike an answer on a dev account and gave the package name
something quick and short for no particular reason
[3].[4].[4]
and did not experience a single issue. I found it curious so i shortened the
name of the original package considerably
[3].[6].[3]
and it works. I still experience some sort of error on the response code that
does not happen pre-3.0.27 even though the response code comes back OK,
nevertheless, the purchase state updates correctly and restore transactions
works correctly as well.
Any ideas whats up with this?

I just got stuck with this issue. I attempted to purchase the app using a test
account over a spotty connection. The order was cancelled (order number
168059133148286) but my app still says I have a pending order.
Unlike comment #1 above, my RESTORE_TRANSACTIONS calls return RESULT_OK

But when it comes time to launch the IabActivity, my app gets a 500 error from
the https://android.clients.google.com/fdfe/purchase service.

I just got another 500 error from
https://android.clients.google.com/fdfe/purchase in a different app, order
number 844994873371129. In this case, the phone/logcat says:
E/Volley (17490): [10] BasicNetwork.performRequest: Unexpected response code
500 for https://android.clients.google.com/fdfe/purchase
W/Finsky (17490): [1] CheckoutPurchase.onErrorResponse: SERVER: Your order is
processing, your item will be available in a few minutes.
But Checkout says the order was cancelled, "We could not complete your order in
a timely fashion."
In both cases, reinstalling the app doesn't help, and RESTORE_TRANSACTIONS
returns RESULT_OK.

basically, im finding its all about when you create the draft apk. Pick the
wrong time of day and software with the new app market installed will 503.
Simply deleting the apk and recreating it with the exact same everything and
there's no issue anymore.

This is a serious bug. Some users are already starting to contact me - they
tried to buy the in-app product, the order was cancelled (took too long) and
they can't buy it again.

Contrary to comment #5, deleting the APK and recreating it did not fix my
problem.
Original comment by choiceog...@gmail.com
on 12 Aug 2011 at 4:06
Comment #5 is irrelevant IMO. This happens with shipping apps which didn't have
this problem until recently.
Google folks, please answer the following:
- What's the root cause?
- What can developers do to prevent this?
- What can developers do to remedy this?
- What can users do to get unstuck?

You can try the following, rolling back the market update.
* Get off of wifi to provide a longer delay before market reupdates itself
* Prep the area in the game to make in-app purchase
* Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage, select the market app from All tab
* Choose the option to uninstall updates
* Open market app to re-accept terms of service
* Long press home and go back to game to make purchase before 3.0.27 update
comes down and installs
Alternatively, if you're phone is rooted, you could set the market apk to read
only to prevent the update from installing.

Any updates to this issue? I have a game where I can buy some items in game,
but other items give me this error message. I've tried uninstalling the market
updates and that didn't help.
ANy suggestions for workarounds? When will this be fixed?

Rolling back the market update as described in comment #11 worked for me,
though I had to try it several times to get the timing right.
In my case, the problem isn't with a production user, but with the test account
for my app. So when I tried cancelling the order in the course of testing, the
problem came back. But at least now I think I can work around it reasonably
well.

I tried the steps outlined in comment 11. Didn't work for me. I'm trying to
purchase 2 different items in 9-innings baseball. I can buy other items, just
not the two that I want. I still get the same old error in market. When I look
at my transaction history, the two items I am trying to purchase showed up as
canceled and when I look at the details - the "took too long" message is in
there. I've called google and opened a ticket with them, but have not heard
anything back, despite attempts to get an update on what's happening. As far as
I know, Google has been completely silent in regards to this issue. Not very
good.

As a consumer, I called android market, had a case opened up and was told I
should hear something back within 24 hours. After two days, I called again -
and still no word at all. To my knowledge Google has been completely silent on
this issue. I couldn't even get an ETA or even the most general idea of what
the problem is. As brilliant as most of these folks are, seems like they really
dropped the ball on this one.

Hi everyone,
If you're experiencing this, please contact Android Market support:
https://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/developer/bin/answer.py?answer=1366
01&hl=en
You can tell them to reference bug 5126349, which is our internal tracking
number for this.
As has been mentioned before, this is *not* the place to report service issues.
We use this issue tracker to hold the open-source sample code for in-app
billing. This tracker is for that. It isn't monitored frequently, so it is not
appropriate for any time-sensitive issues.
I'll add that we're aware of this issue, but there's no useful information that
I can give out at this time. (But again, please contact Android Market support
if you're experiencing this. We use the volume of support tickets to determine
how many people are impacted by a bug.)
I'm closing this issue as invalid. This isn't because this isn't a valid bug,
but because it's not a valid bug for *this* issue tracker. The Market team has
a bug open for this, and will continue to track it there until this is resolved.

Google... I've reported this to Android Market support several times, but not
had any response. Now every order is failing on a consistent basis, losing me
approx $20 for every day this is broken.
Worst of all, when my customers contact you for support, you are telling them
to "Contact the developer". I CAN'T DO ANYTHING FOR THEM... it's YOUR bug,
affecting MY revenue and reputation. FIX IT!!!

Something else is going on today - we are seeing what Comment 20 describes. We
typically receive 1-5 reports a day where users end up in permanent
purchase-pending limbo. Checkout Support is unresponsive to us, and
consistently run our customers in circles when they report the issue as well
(we ask them to do this to hopefully accelerate a fix on Google's side).
However, today - ALL of our orders are in a Cancelled state with "We could not
complete your order in a timely fashion." Not good. Have attempted to report
it, but checkout support provides no way to report the issue description and it
typically takes 48-72 hours to get an auto-reply to respond to. They aren't
responding to our running ticket over bug 5126349, either.
I know this is the bug reporting system for the market billing API, not Google
Checkout, but not quite sure what to do at this point.

I'm still having this issue as well -- I got some response from Google in the
beginning, but they seemed determined to blame the problem on everything EXCEPT
the market app. They told me to check with everyone from my bank to the
application's developer. (Neither of which was the problem) As of Sept 2nd I
have had no responses from the Android Developer side.

This is a critical bug. I have hundreds of users complaining of the issue, and
they are all being told it's a "developer problem" by the Android market user
support.
It'll be a developer problem when I have anything to do with billing in any
way, shape or form, Google.

I am also seeing this issue.
Error message displayed: "You already have a pending order for this item".

- Items were cancelled, email was sent to me indicating cancellation
- I have uninstalled Market App updates, cleared cache, force closed, etc. without any luck.

maybe I should be changing my business to another APP DOWNLOAD SITE!!!! I feel
bad for the developers on your crappy market that can't get this shit

Man UP…and spend some time to fix this crap!!!
I'e already sent in my information about my order to you….after which you

This is not a developer issue Google. Did Osama Bedier develop this mess for
you and hide the code?
The only way I got past this problem was to wipe the phone - so I could sign
into android market under a new account. I reloaded the software and was able
to buy in-app items again, that is until the timeouts returned within a day.
Incredibly, this is still not on the known issues page.

**** Since Issue 39 has been closed by Google, I opened another case (case 50),
which is open at this time. I included screen shots of one example of this
error.
If Google would like us to open the tickets in the appropriate areas, perhaps
they ought to address THIS ISSUE instead of ignoring it completely. Both
developers and consumers have been COMPLETELY IGNORED on the issue of "You
Already Have a Pending Order For This Item" when reporting this through the
appropriate channels.

Since Google does not seem to show any interest in solving this problem, which
is highly annoying for customers and seriously falling back on the developers
(who cannot do anything about it), I now recommend all customers who ask me to
switch to an iPhone. Apple is able to make that work. Of course, most customers
have no interest in switching, but indeed it would be best for them.

Had the same issue for several days. Customers try to buy items and received an

We could not complete your order in a timely fashion. Please verify your
payment information in Google Checkout and try again later.
Now whenever they try to re-purchase an item that they received this message
on, it says "You already own this item". But they don't and doing a restore
transactions only sends receipts for the items they actually own. HELP!
