I have the market application but it doesn't work...
I tried installing another Vending. apk but it says *CANNOT INSTALL ON THIS DEVICE* or something like that.
So if anyone is kind enough to upload the current vending. apk they have that is working.
Thanks, Zm4.

What do you mean "doesn't work"?
Does the market launch at all?

When trying to first run it.
It gives me an error and force closes.
After that I run it nothing shows up only the Market but no applications on the home screen of the market.
When I go into the categories I can see them.
I have tried to download many times but it always stays on starting to download...
Its really annoying.
Try to change Vending.apk permissons to rw-r--r--
Sent from my rooted X10 mini pro, still with Android 1.6!!! using XDA App
Is the problem with the UAE carrier or your market apk?
It says in your sig you are "Rooted with Market Fix" - did that fix stop working? Did it involve changing what carrier the market sees your phone as?
Here is an app that can change what country/carrier the market sees your phone as:
MarketAccess is a complete rewrite of the MarketEnabler. It is an application which emulates the SIM card of the chosen operator and makes paid apps accessible in the Android Market. You need it if you want to buy apps and games from Market, but Market is not (yet) available in your country or for your operator.

AppBrain find it this app, market not. When i try to shows app details in market, but via AppBrain, then market says 'Not find - Cannot find requested item'.
Where is the problem.
In app installer.
App installer have all informations what app can be installed what cannot.
Any ideas how to change this?
Sent from my E15i using XDA App
I don't know for sure, but i heard that apps that you can find on the market are depends of your country.Also, i saw a programm to change your region settings in market.If you need it, i can find it.
I know about depends of country - i ask my friends to search this apps in
their android phones (Milestone, GalaxyS, G1, Spica).
Only market on X8 is blind for these items.
There is a reason for restrictions on the country.
try market enabler
search it in 4 shared "market enabler.apk"
Market Enabler is used for something else.
My problem is not depended of operator or country.
Have a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742608
It should solve your problem with market.
i have the market but when i use market enabler i see more apps
for eg. "skype"

Market enabler allows you to download paid apps.
So maybe try clear the cache,reboot and start again.

Solution found on xda (solves problem with Goggles)
The problem with applications such as Goggles or QuickMark comes from the lack of autofocus in the Xperia X8.
The solution is simple (found somewhere on xda):
1. copy to the directory /system/etc/permissions file android.hardware.camera.autofocus.xml.
2. Set permission to at least 644.
3. Xml file can be downloaded from the address http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=425158&d=1287842085 or from the attachment.
4. Uninstall the updates of Android market,
5. Reset the phone.
After restarting you can find in the Market and install such apps like Goggles.
After that an update of Market does not change anything and the solution works.
This is not mine solution (except uninstalling Market - without this step it won't work) and all the credit goes to the original author).
In relation to the Nook Color issue of not displaying your installed apps in the Market app, I confirm that AppBrain is able to show all my installed apps (I'm running PhireMod Nook V3) but still I have an issue. It shows me which apps are to be updated but when I click on one of these apps and select "Update (in Market)", then it starts loading the Market app and ends up with an error message saying that the requested item cannot be found.
So AppBrain is sort of a half workaround to see your installed apps but you still need then to go and find your individual app in the market to install the latest version which is quite painful.
Anyone the same experience and/or a solution to use Appbrain fully rather than the Market app?

If you can't see the app in the market you can't see it in the market....... Appbrain doesn't have its own market, it just links to the Android market.

Nope, appbrain has let me download apps not shown in the "old market" on autonootered 2.1 eclair with the "fast web installer" app. This method won't work for you because PhireMod uses "new market" (v.2.27) which blocks appbrain from bypassing it.
Here's an post about the change. (previous article was about the last time google blocked it! )
I'm going to try to use the reversal directions to put old market back on after I install PhireMod:

I've been using it on eclair (to find apps not listed by the market). My understanding is that it no longer works once you move to new market. I still haven't switched to froyo because I was waiting for the pandora bug to be fixed and hoping that appbrain would release a new version with new market support.
I want to know but not sure how to proof it since the statistic in android market is not in real time. If I send my app to friends in apk file and they've installed, will android market count as net/device install? thanks
They need to have a rooted phone. They can use Titanium Backup and force attach the apps to the market

It will not specify how you installed the app. The app will just be shown as installed if you search for it on the market (and if you use Titanium Backup's Market Doctor, then you can attach it for it to show up in the "My Apps" section - for some apps).

what i curious is does android market know when a user installed the apk from an external source (same signature). if yes, can i say that the download number in market is the overall download numbers from all the sources of the app?

No, it will not know. No, it would not add to the download number in the market.
Speaking from first-hand experience, don't be so sure that either the Android Market or Amazon Appstore stop counting (or knowing) about apps just because they are side-loaded.
Our current app doesn't show an increase in downloaded users, but Google does report "active" users, and that number can differ from the download number. Moreover, Amazon Appstore currently "finds" apps installed on a device and matches them with apps in their list and they will try to update them.
One last note: app developers can and do put all kinds of code in their apps that touch live Google and Amazon APIs and components. This code will communicate with those services even if the app arrives on the device indirectly... so there are still many ways an app can be tracked besides just direct download numbers.

I Sent my market purchased apps to my spouses new phone, without my account on it, and they updated through his account, but only free versions. To get the update on paid versions I had to install my account, so there is definitely something going on in the signature.
If the developer updates their apps with any regularity the download count will rectify itself during the update process. BTW, Amazon does this as well. I am always offered to update my Market apps through Amazon (if free on both) but typically Market has the update before Amazon.

Do the following:
Root your phone (plenty of guides around)
Install Orbot from market. In orbot settings, enable transparent proxying, set the exit nodes field to "{us}" without quotes, and tick the strict exit nodes box.
install market enabler from market and fake one of the US settings.
Market should now act as though it was in the US. using orbot will make your internet slower but you il appear to be in the US. Disable orbot when you are finished so your internet is fast again.

The same thing happened to me too. My solution is
1. Put Pandora® internet radio(for example) into google search and you'll get a result like "Pandora® internet radio - Apps on Android Market"(usually the second result ).Open it with your computer's browser.
2.use a chrome plugin(or a firefox plugin or some webservice or something ) to generate a QRcode for the URL above.
3.open market enabler and fake your region to USA.
4.open Barcode scanner (or something like that), scan that QRcode into your phone .When it ask you "Complete action using ?",choose "market".
5.download it
it worked for me when i tryed to download google maps from USA market (CHN market even don't have google maps ,can you believe that? ) Hope that can help you

What does removing a market link do?

market links connect your app to google play store.
when your app receives an update market links helps you to be aware of the same.
its helps u get update info abt your app
if you are rooted, Using Titanium Backup (Pro) long click/press on the app you want to 'disconnect' from the market.
Then select Detach from Market. this will remove your market link but then you wont get any updates..

if you purchase an app the the purchase details are linked to your google account. so even if you reflash rom / wipe your phoone etc , if you log into the same google account it will automatically show as you have purchased that app.

Thank you so much with the fast reply!
One more question, when I download apps through the Play Store, and I go into Titanium Backup, I would expect an option in the menu saying "Detach from market", but they only have the "Attach to market option". this doesnt make any sense since the apps downloaded from the Play Store are already attached from the market. Can someone please explain this to me? Does the "attach to market option only work with sideloaded apps?
One last thing about Paid side loaded apps: Plants Vs. Zombies is $0.99 on the play store, if I side load it and atttach it to the market via a link, will I get updates even though it's sideloaded? Also will it appear in my app history as purchased if it's installed on the device? Will it appear as purchased if it's uninstalled from the device?
Thanks!

its showing "attach to market" because u have not installed that app from play market. you might have downloaded apk from somewhere and installed it separately(side loaded). Check other apps too that u have downloaded from play store have the same problem.

attaching market link should ensure that you get updates regardless whether the app is sideloaded or not ! i mean thats what attaching to market means ! no matter whether you are using TB or not if you have purchased app the it is linked to your google account that the app is purchased by you. Google is'nt counting on everyone to install TB and use the option of attach to market to get updates on purchased apps....

unfortunately only for the time beeing.. after a reboot the link is there again. Pretty annyoing as there are some devs patching their apps to crap until they don't work anymore. Got one of them and it was so easy to update all your apps, but you have to do it one after another 'cause this s**t app simply does not work when updated.
