I recently bought a Nokia Lumina 640 because i want to get some windows phone games for achievents. The first thing i try and download gives me this error.

I have searched and searched and i cant find a definitive answer on what the issue is and how to resolve it. It seems to be some error with my network, but what error? Is it a port thing? What ports does it need?

I did the steps the microsoft website suggests, which were to: manually change my time, manually sync my email, make sure to update my microsoft account, and finally, to reset my phone. None of that worked so i am looking for real answers.

This error usually comes up when there is a problem with the store on the Microsoft side. Usually the problem is resolved in a few days, please do not do anything with your phone, router or any other piece of equipment, no resets or reinstallations will make any difference and you may lose apps which are no longer available in the store. The solution can come only from MS and the only thing you can do is wait, no matter how frustrating it is.

    Same here since yesterday. Tried hard setting thrice.No solution yet. Thank god it's a Global issue. Waiting for official reply from Microsoft agent.

    There will be no official reply from anyone, Microsoft never openly acknowledge such issues, they just silently fix them and pretend it never happened.

    The problem is on the Store side, nothing you do with your phone or router will make the slightest difference until MS fix it.

    Tried about ten times. Tested different ISPs. Tested another microsoft account. Proved the change of the cococo (code country code). DOES NOT WORK ! As long as Microsoft blocks the store there is nothing that can be done, just FORCE the upgrade to W10 mobile. Greetings.
