market help please - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK, so lets try this again. I'm trying to get my Market to update to the newest version! had to hard reset my vibrant and now cant seem to get the Market to update! did it before but now nothing seems to work! tried launching it and then going back to Home Screen and waiting but still didn't update. also tried rebooting my vibrant many times. even tried installing 2.2 market apk. but that also fails to install! so xda friends please help me out! I need the new market!! Thanks

I'm probably missing your point, but grab the vending.apk and drop it in system/apps and reboot.

Already tried the vending app.wont install says a install error!

you do not install system apps, you move them to system/app and reboot.
Now, if you are talking about the 2.2 updated market for people on Eclair, you can just download that to your sd and install it and then click to "update"
I actually did not like the 2.2 market on eclair builds, but left it in the sticky so people could try it.

thanks but where can I download the 2.2 updated market apk? tried searching google and xda but no luck! just running rooted stock 2.1 with the Ji6 update!
thanks a million!

Dam it. Nothing seems to be working. Cant install the vending apk. Because it pops up a parsing error.cant install package! Tried moving it to system/apps folder but says I dont have permissions error! Why is the Market not updating on its own? I need the newest version of the Market. If you have any ideas please let me know asap. Maybe im just stupid! Thanks for any help!

Go to the tips and tricks thread on your phone. DL the market app. Click open once the DL completes. (If you have an app like apKatcher installed be sure to chose 'package installer'). That's it. I've done it probably a dozen times with no issues.

Omg thanks that worked great! Will I be able to get future market updates. Meaning will it update on its own? Thanks for all the help!

[Q] Problem with Market on Eminence ROM

I installed eminence last night, and everything was working fine. The market wasn't updating to the latest version, so I manually installed the latest version from the backup I had done before I installed eminence.
The latest market was then working fine, until I tried to install X10iUser's black market, which then completely removed the market, so I re-installed the market and now it keeps forcing close.
Is there an easy fix, or do I have to re-install eminence and start again from scratch?
Thanks in advance

You should post this in the original forum for that particular ROM. Hopefully, you will get an answer!
Go to file explorer /system/app find marketupdate.apk install from there, then go to manage applications find marketupdate click on it uninstall, works fine for me.

Download the bloatware restorer from the GingerBlur thread, and then search for the DLNA apk.
found it and downloaded the dlna.apk. unable to install it. says "application was not installed"
You could also install gladiatrix.
Then put the gingerblur theme on top

You can only restore it via the CWM update process.
Basically take the bloatware.zip and remove everything but the dlna apk file and restore it... works perfectly.
The apk will not work by itself.
Also, don't unzip it... Just view the contents and delete what you don't want. It's in System App and there's some ATT stuff in Data I think
Cool give it a shot in 10 mins

Didn't work. Hung up @ installing

downloads ginger blur again. Open the ginger blur zip and goto system/app/ get the dlna.apk on ur desk top and the drag it into winrar with window open to system/app/ .
Then flash with cwm and u will have the app. I did this for mine but i did it on a fresh install
i'll give it another shot 2nite. does it matter as to which CWM I use?
Part Three – Tenfar’s CWM Recovery
or
Alternate CWM
going to try this tonight. I just want to add the DLNA and the Media Share. Im a noob at this. Which method worked best for you? Thanks in Advanced!
I'm gonna wait unil 2.3 comes out sometime in july and see what these guys have up their sleeves.

Apps will download, but won't install from market

OK guys I am getting tired, I tried rebooting, clearing market cache, data. I am using void froyo with Franco's v18
And previously in my stock froyo rom I used to uninstall the market updates to revert back to the first version and was able to solve the problem to some extent. But this rom comes with the latest version of market and uninstall updates is greyed out...
The download bar progresses in the notification panel. But the market app doesn't show any signs of downloading at all, no progress bar on the market. And once it finishes downloading, it does not install.
This sucks really, It happens everytime
Any solutions guys !!!!!!
try market enabler. manual download apk file, install it and use it. see if that helps you
Sorry mate no success.
BTW, does anyone have a flashable zip of old market.

hey,
that method leads to FC's and installing the apk leads to app not being installed.

The same thing happens to me when I try to install the Swype app....
Thanks for the link. How the heck do I get it to work without the constant force closes?
make sure it's named vendor.apk and change permissions to fit the other system apps.
Open Root explorer (or any file manager w/ root access) Move New Market to system/apps (make sure to mount R/W first) Move (or delete, but I suggest to move .apk just in case) fix Permissions (rw--r--r)Exit Root Explorer (or any file manager)

Good news, I updated to CM nightly 168 and the FC problem stopped for now.

If you having problems installing the swype apk... you can use Ti backup to uninstall swype, then reboot (important). install swype directly through "files" app or "my files". Worked for me!!
you guys realize that swype updates itself through the settings>input>swype settings> ..
right??? I guess its after the last update mines been updating
Any themes around?
