Anyone know why this game is not showing in the market?
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.pikpok.kikfg#
I understand that Android supposedly checks to see if an app will work, or is supported, and if it's not it should not show up in the market.... but this app should play just fine.
Is there a way to open up the Market? I remember there used to be a way, but I can't locate it!
Neither does fruit ninja but i got it on the black market lol hopefully whenever they decide to update it it will show up on the Android Market

That's weird. I have fruit ninja in the market.

I see it on the market too.
hhhmmm thats weird wtf is wrong with my phone then?
I have Fruit Ninja but don't see Flick Kick Football no fair. Any ideas?
I'm on JM8 Galaxy S in the UK.
I also see fruit ninja, but not flick kick.
What's the deal?
Are you guys on the leaked update?
Sent from my Samsung Vibrant using the xda app
im not on the leaked, im running vibrant9, and i cant see it.
I am on it
Update: just re-searched for it and it showed up, they just pushed out an update so maybe that had something to do with it? I am talking about fruit ninja BTW
I thought this was a Flick Kick thread though... go make your own Fruit Ninja thread
So does any one know where to get flick kick at?
Bump, I too would like to get this game... still do not understand why it does not show in the market.
Flick Kick Link
here it is
I didnt follow the link just b/c FK is a paid app... thanks for offering the help though man!
It shows for me, try Eris Market Fix. I applied this and Angry Birds Beta 2 etc all started appearing for me.

What exactly does the Eris Market Fix do? I'm always a bit hesitant to just let an app mess with my core apps.

Sigh.. just read the description of it on the market:
http://www.appbrain.com/app/eris-market-fix-free/net.andirc.erismarketfix
Quit being so paranoid, if so many people are using it + it's been released for quite some time + good feedback then there's nothing to worry about. Root is required.
^ thanks for the suggestion, I will try it out probably... but to be devils advocate, it has only been out for 5 months (not a long time) and a lot of the comments from Galaxy people suggest it does not work.
Pretty sure JI6 fixed the market. All my apps show now, didnt before update (ie flick kick).

Ok, so my market is slow, won't load and won't download anything. It keeps freezing on the "loading" screen. Google needs to fix this Pos.. seriously
My real issue is, all of a sudden, all my pay apps are trying to make me buy them again. When I go under my apps, and select an app I already paid for.. instead of saying "install" it has the price next to it.
Anyone else?

Yea I'm using Myns for the EVO 3D.
it's doing it on other roms tho.. I figured the market is taking a dump, yet again.
Do you use a task killing app? Free more Ram and load again, or try downloading the market.apk separate from forums, they might have a slimmed one like in nightlies for wildfire, I had same problem until my market was skimmed to work faster
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
It's all good.
The main thing I'm worried about is why it's trying to make me purchase my apps all over again..
Mine tried that a few times, reboot to try to load the licenses again, works for me after new roms get installed it decides I should buy again and reboot fixes, but don't fastboot or you'll probably have the same problem.

Done that numerous times, even turned airplane mode off/on like I used to have to do when in some AOSP roms. I restarted several times as well.
I think it will download the apps now, but, I'm not buying them again... that's my main issue
Try the old market. New market is just buggy and unstable.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
Yeah I've read that the new Android market 3.2 is pretty buggy, I couldn't even buy an app on there. I think market version 3.1.6 works better or just go back to the old market.
Indeed, the new market is extremely slow. Especially on 3G.
I've had more problems installing beautiful widgets after a rom flash than I can shake a fist at. Every app I've paid for on my list installs fine, but when I click install on Beautiful Widgets it just sits there, loading... All I do now is ignore it and go play angry birds or watch youtube and try again in 5 minutes, it'll work sooner or later > >
After I wrote this I made a hard backup of BW so I don't have to download it from the market anymore
ya the new market has a lot of bugs. The way I fix this problem is just to force close the market app. It usually fixes that problem. If it is still there after force close, clear data on the market app and try again. Hope that helps.
I'm wondering why there are a lot of games that i can't get on this phone that i could get on my fascinate... It seems that anything the fascinate can run the rezound would run even better. Is there a specific reason i can get them? Is there a work around?
Thanks
Sent from my Rezound using XDA App
Which games? Do you still have your fascinate? If so, make a backup and transfer it.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
some of the games are not supported due to the screen resolution. Not all games run on different screen reso's.
It's not just games, there are several apps that don't work unless you grab the apk, for example Groupon.
Ahh OK, thanks. Well hopefully more apps will be updated to support it. It wasnt necessarily games i already had... I just noticed that some of the 10ยข apps weren't showing up on my rezound that were showing up on my wife's Droid pro and my old fascinate.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
They are different $0.10 apps each day, as well as for different devices.
I asked groupon, and either their staff is incompetent or the email went too low on the totem pole. People asked me if my display for the rezound (when I told them it was a rezound) was QVGA, and refused to respond to the emails.
Does anyone have a link to the current groupon apk or a way to download that even though they simply don't list it for my phone?
with games, if our phone does not have support for it then it will not show up for us(like Asphalt 6 HD - no graphic support).
sometimes though, google or the dev will remove an app for any given reason. of course, when this happens you could always do a web search for "filename. apk" 4shared.com is a popular site that hosts. apk files(and they also have an app in market)

I was bummed on this one. I bought Asphalt 6 and its not compatible for this device. I'd love to drop the APK in this to see if I can get it working.

Not being a smartass, just google groupon apk and there will be an xda link for the motorola atrix forums...I found the apk there, installed it, and it works...I would post the link, but I'm on my phone at school.

You will need the GetJar app installed to download.

I didn't think this was piracy, they are running a promotion. If it is, I can take it down.
its not promotion..Its the new way to make money off paid by giving it for free......developed by Getjar....its not piracy at all,I dont know how it works....I downloaded BW from there long time ago and still running rock solid...
Guys, this is not piracy, it's a new "Gold App Sale" by Getjar. There's some great apps in there too!
the only thing i cant get to download on the TP is Tapatalk
edit: anyone know a quick download code?
Seems like some cool apps here not sure how to get them on the touchpad though as it doesn't seem to be a supported device.. Any ideas? Where do I get the getjar app I don't see it on their page anywhere...
use the default android browser and make sure you have it set to mobile. when you browse to http://m.getjar.com it will auto download the apk and you can install that way

Same here, get the message "no compatible downloads for unknown android 2.3"
Sent from my Touchpad using xda premium
I was able to get Tapatalk, although it gave me an error the first time I tried.
I was also having issues downloading at first using Dolphin browser, but using the stock browser it worked just fine. The first time I tried to DL an app, it said I needed GetJar and linked me to the file.
do you think you can use your PC browser and the quick download code and post it here? what device do you have it set to? I'm currently set on "Free Download".

Love the folks that cry piracy w/o FIRST checking the link. Stop policing unless you're a mod.
so.... how they make money on such promotions "paid for free"?
those apps are modified or all-the-same like orginal android market versions?

they're different in the fact that they are currently updated very slowly... getjar just made it available to have developers push their updates... before, you had to know there was an update and redownload the app... i got my first push yesterday, so i see it's working
getjar makes money by sponsors... you'll see them throughout the site
Same problem as other, when i search/enter the code for the app (in my case it's Tweetcaster Pro, Tapatalk and Splashtop Remote Desktop) i get the "no compatible version for my device" text which is ridiculous because i have a Captivate and the Android Market shows those apps just fine. Any ideas? Can someone post the .apk i mean if they are free its not illegal right? And also if i get the .apk, will it update automatically when with the new push system from GetJar?

Thanks, it only worked for Splashtop, TweetCaster Pro and Tapatalk keep saying the device is not compatible i mean wtf!?!? I tried with GS II and Galaxy Nexus and both say not compatible. Anyone that has already downloaded Tapatalk from the GetJar app can tell me the device they are using and the name code so i can modify the Build.prop and download the app.
ro.product.model=GT-i9100
ro.product.brand=samsung
it has worked with everything in getjar... i have a crash here and there but they all have downloaded...
if you've changed this... reboot... it took awhile for google's android market to see the change... i probably restarted 3 times... even went into webos once and back to cm7...
the only thing i've had a problem with working at all (it did download) is Advanced Task Manager
i get:
Sorry! The application Advance Task Manager (process con.arron.taskManager) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
edit:
just tried another app... Aces Jewel Hunt downloaded and installed but closes right after the splash screen opens
Yhea i tried with that. i wasn't able to download the Splashtop before changing the build.prop and after changing that and rebooting i could. But i couldn't download the other two apps, i mean i even tried going on the browser to getjar.com and changed my device to the i9100 and even there i can't seem to get the code for the download because i get the same message that my device isn't compatible and im talking about the PC browser. Im gonna change again to the i9100 on the phone and wait a day or so and try again from the app, i don't understand why i have to do all this the app should be compatible.
Thanks again for the suggestions though
Hello. I had a game from internet called the world of magic 1.1.0 and it worked perfectly on my glaxy 5 i5500 and now they updated it on android market and i cant download it anymore cause now it sais it wont work but it does. Most of the games work on android market that it sais it wont. So Im begging for help or advice what to do cause the game is my favourite. (i hate android market) I think it should be free to download any free game you want and see if it works or not or have the warning that it might not work and you can still download it. What should i do, cause i cant find the 1.1.1 update on google only 1.1.0. It's a free app too so no one has posted it anywhere. I was wondering that maybe Some of you could do the hassle and get me the apk of The World Of Magic 1.1.1 update. or should I somehow contact the game owners? which will take longer i think
I thought you can pay for it and if you change your mind, you have 15 minutes to uninstall to get a refund?
its a free game.. so what refund could i get? XD
Its not the market, on app upload the dev can specify a minimum DPI(ldpi, mdpi or hdpi) to install, so blame the dev.
Sent from... somewhere...
it really does suck. cause i contacted the game devs. they didnt even aprove my post on their forums. Stupid i tell you ... Its like this with most of the games. The games run on my phone but it sais its not compadible i think its cause i have small phone (galaxy 5 i5500)
I've tried rooting the phone or whatever but none of the rooting things work for me. Anyways i read somewhere when you root your phone you can change the name of ur phone so it would say something else for the phone name on the android market.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
The market looks at your dpi in build.prop, which governs the scale of the UI, so putting it above the default is a very bad idea, I tried it once take it from me.
Yes you require root for it though, possibly s-off

Well thats all stupid -.- im starting to hate the fact that I have decent phone and Im not able to download and try apps. The market thing is a fraud people should be able to download whether it works or not and just test themselves.

Wipe data and cache of market app. Then search the game, select it, and while its loading the page the download button is visible, so click it and there you go Well, please be aware that you won't receive any notification for available updates!
I've got the same problem all the time as the default dpi is way to high and makes the whole phone unusable in my opinion

I have the apk for the 3.4.4 market. I froze the market updater but when I install the Market apk within 5 minutes it updates to play. Is there a way to prevent the upgrade?
What's the big deal with preventing the update? Looks like exactly the same market with a name change to me. Just wondering what I'm missing and in no way trying to be a jerk.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
You dont want to stop the update because if you do, you will not be able to get apps or update current apps with the old market.
Anything else that relies on the newer market will fail as well. I doubt you could stop it anyway..
Install an older version of the Market and use Titanium Backup to freeze the Market Updater...but there's no good reason to not update.
The new market is great! LOL, it is pretty much the same. The only difference if you have a tablet and that allowed you to purches music through the app. Again looks pretty much the same. New name

personally the name change is annoying as all hell, google quit trying to program your brand name in my brain, when i want to buy and app or something i want to go to the market or to the store, not go to the google and pick up a new app.
every-time i'm in a rush trying to pull something from the app market i can't find the bloody icon because i'm looking for the market or in the old location on my app drawer, minor change i know but i have caught myself cussing at google when i needed to re-d/l my gps app after it crashed during a trip i as on a few days ago.
any chance of renaming the new app back to market without root?
Just use a launcher and if already do, just change the name duh..lol that's what I did ....

I also would like to learn how to get around using Play. The new terms seem to allow Google to read my sms messages and record the message routing. I don't think my correspondents would appreciate having their thoughts being part of Google's repertoire.

What conspiracy theorist cooked that up?
The only way to get around using Google Play is to not use android. What you're asking is the equivalent of saying you want to use an iDevice without the app store.

Memory needs > any update
I have a very good reason for not wanting auto-upgrades. Radio Shack misled me about the HTC Wildfire S and now I've got jack for memory. I have four apps installed, use only the native message app, and I'm lucky to have 25mb free. Anything less than that and the phone works as well as the Pony Express does today.
FWIW, Tandybot told me I could always install apps on the SD card. In theory, yes, but so few app devs code apps to work in that manner. Lesson learned.
kite edit: SNIP! No need for that kind of attitude around here, I'm afraid.
