Help apps wont' auto update anymore

i managed to get auto update after i clear cache, clear data, reconnect wifi, waited 5 min and got the update. i was wondering if auto updates are instant or not. i don't suppose i have to reset market everytime i want to auto update
 
recently i've been having auto update problems with my app, i allowed auto update but none of the apps will auto update. at first i thought it was my wifi/3g but then i figured out it works after i do a clear data on the market.

my question is, since i know wut the problem is, how do i avoid it? i know it's the market app's problem and if i want to auto update i have to do a clear data everytime, but that defeats the purpose of auto update cause i could just manaual update right there.

any thoughts?
 
so after about a month of trial and research, i've narrowed it down to a very simple sympton: the apps will auto update if i uncheck and check the allow auto update option again. if i just leave auto update option on, it won't auto update. but it works just like it should if i untick and tick the allow auto update option.

for the longest time i thought i had to clear data, but then i realized after i clear data, i have to recheck the allow auto update option so that's why it worked.

so that being said, does anyone know why i have to uncheck and check the option for it to wrok?
