I just downloaded it onto my Android phone for the first time and it worked fine.You could try clearing the data cache - http://lifehacker.com/clear-all-cache...
Don't have the clear all thingy on my phone. :(
Went through and cleared one by one, restarted, tried to download it again and same error message.Pooh
Some random thoughts ...Have you got enough free space on your phone? Sometimes an upgrade can stall because there isn't enough room for it. You in particularly will have lots of Goodreads messages to be stored which could be causing a problem.
Is it an older phone? I have just had to replace my laptop with a more powerful PC because the laptop couldn't handle one program in particular - Outlook. It may be that your phone is struggling.
You could try switching your phone off and back on again - the usual remedy. Many people leave their phone on all the time, which can mean that it doesn't get a chance to power down properly.
I dunno. I'm groping in the dark here.
It's a Samsung Galaxy SII.Seems to have plenty of free space.
That's getting to be an old phone by today's standards, so it might be upgrade time. I have the SIII and am starting to think about replacing it.This might help ...

The usual recipe seems to be to reset and try again. But you may eventually get to the point where the problem is that the phone just isn't up to the job.
Yeah, I've talked to Geoff about maybe upgrading at Christmas.Don't really use my phone much, except when we're travelling.
I'll have to think on it.
I can recommend the Sony Z3 Compact as a potential upgrade. I got one earlier this year.Like you, I don't use my phone all that much but it does the job and was a nice upgrade from my iPhone 4S that didn't break the bank.
Last night I got fed up and uninstalled it, hoping to re-install.
It's downloading then crashing on the install.
Any ideas?
