Hi,
I'm using the bionix final R1 rom and I noticed that I don't have the latest market on it. I currently have version 1714 and the market updater is version 1000. I know that the latest version should be 200x. I've tried look it up but i couldn't find a working solution.
I've also tried what the market help suggested which was launch the market hit home wait 10 min launch the market again, but no luck.
What version of the market you currently have installed?
Any ideas what can fix it?
Thanks

I have the android 2.2 market, it has some little things that make the experience more convenient like automatic updating of apps, and one button you can hit to update all your available updates if you choose not to use the automatic update feature.
My recommendation: Flash a 2.2 ROM and upgrade more than just the market. If you're on bionix non-fusion, you're missing out on a lot of progress made since then. I recommend Axura, I've flashed the last couple versions without trouble and everytime it's worked beautifully for me, with no tricks or headaches. Check it out.
I'm really happy with the Bionix Final R1 and the Core 2 kernel. My phone is really snappy and the battery life is really good! I don't have any complains actually. Everything just works. I thought the the only difference between the bionix final to the fusion is the touchwiz. What other features\ improvements are there?
By the way my quadrant score is 2800+
Do you know if I can just take the Vending.apk from any 2.2 rom and push it to mine?
I was going through the samething.but found the 2.2 market apk on here. Just install it and it will update your current market. Just search on here for it.its under the apps and themes area!

2.1 - Bionix Fusion
2.2 - Nero R3 (Enable Voodoo after flashing)
Both VERY stable for me and very fast.

Yep. JL5 just works, period. Don't want to flash, go with something rock solid. Takes 10 minutes to strip the bloat and then you've got a great ROM.
I can't seem to stop using Bionix Final R1. I've gone to 2.2 ROMs many times (six now, various permutations of Obsidian, Nero and Axura) and have always ended up restoring my nandroid backup of Bionix Final R1.
Nothing else just seems to get me the same level of performance, stability and battery life. And I absolutely prefer the Bionix UI look to any of the newer ROMs...
I really do hate that I can't seem to stick with a Froyo ROM, but I dunno. I guess because the 2.1 source has long since been released, the ROMs just feel more rock-solid...
Might be switching to Nero V3 + Blue Gingerbread morph, though... getting tired of not being able to use the Gmail and Maps updates.

Can you write a small quick tutorial on what tools you use and how you remove the bloat (and which bloatware in particular)? Thanks in advance.
Well, not sure how useful my guide would be - I cheat a bit.
I use Titanium Backup.
After I restore my backed up applications I go to the Backup / Restore tab.
Menu > Filters
Select "Not backed up" under "Filter by status:"
Apply
Now I'm just looking at the apps not in my backup set - things that were installed by the new ROM.
Personally I drop just about anything in the ROM that didn't come from Google, with the exception of the video player (better codec support), Bluetooth bits and pieces (since Samsung uses a different Bluetooth stack) and the Samsung music player.
I think I'm going to be rooting the wife's phone later to upgrade her to JL5 - I'll try to make an exhaustive list then.
Just found this new market version on the internet
You need to be running android 2.2+ for it to work
Just install as normal apk (does not apply to 3.2.0)
From my experince it looks nice but isn't realy made for or "slow" legend so it's not that smooth as the older market (does not apply to 3.2.0)
You can always try it, if you like it you keep it, if you dont you uninstall the market update (does not apply to 3.2.0)
Thanks to QUBiCA for posting the latest market, this will probably the latest update by me (most markets update by themselves anyway)
Click me to download 3.4.4
3.2.0 Install instructions
*Set up adb on your pc (need root, not possible to have 3.2.0 without root atm)
*Boot into clockworkmod recovery and mount system
* On pc use "adb push insert here location of Vending.apk on pc /system/app
* Reboot and you will have market version 3.2.0
15/10/2011
updated to 3.2.0 'Vending.apk'(faster then the previous 3.0 markets)
NEED TO INSTALL WITH ADB ATM
*24/08/2011
updated to 3.1.3 (thanks to Asovse1 for the link)
*24/07/2011*
updated to latest version 3.0.27 (if it gives any problems let me know)
*05/01/2012*
updated to 3.4.4 (thanks to QUBiCA)

but the new features are nice to, like seeing when an app his last update was (so you don't download abandoned apps, books and movies are a nice addon but cant test that here tho
nice. Thanks man!
It looks better than the old version. I like it.
I like it, but can't for the life of me figure out how to update an app!!
It tells me that I have an app that needs updating, but I can't see any option anywhere to perform that task.
Am I missing something obvious??

Issues with my legend since I updated to new market
I've been having screen issues with my legend touch screen (it becomes buggy, glitches and sometimes completely unresponsive to touch) since I updated to the new android market 3.0. Not sure if it was coincidental that my screen problems occured after I successfully installed this app. I have seen a lot of complaint about the legends screen on youtube and other blogs and most have said it a hardware problem (digitizer) and though I believed it might be the case until recently when I noticed (after reverting to the old market app) that all my downloaded app which used to be present/visible wasn't receiving updates and now they have simply disappeared from my phones downloaded apps list on the market. I only see my paid apps on my apps list now
I have tried all possible troubleshooting fix. I have done both hard and soft reset but still no luck with it working as well as it used to. The phone sometimes works well but other times works like it has a mind of its own!! Can't afford sending it in for hardware repairs and/or parts replacement so i'm willing to exhaust all possibilities that this is or is not a software issue.
Need advise/guide Please :-(
Since updating to Market v3.0.27 I've had trouble updating to the latest versions of some apps. Specifically
- Smart Keyboard Pro 4.4.1
- Beautiful Widgets 3.65
For those apps the Market reported there was an update available, but only the Open and Uninstall options were available, no Update option.
I finally used Titanium Backup to restore Market v2.36 (just the app, not the data) and with that version of the Market I was able to update the 2 apps mentioned above.

I'll try that if it happens again. I'm using the new market now anyway because it automatically updated somehow.

Try going to Settings/Language& Keyboard/Select Language. Select US English even if it's already selected. I'm typing from memory on my phone otherwise I'd give credit to the person that I read this from.

Today I had the same issue with Sound Hound. I cleared cache and data for Market (I had to agree to the terms again when it started), but it didn't help. I restored 2.3.6 and was able to upgrade Sound Hound with no problem.

First off I want to say that MacRom is the most stable/speedy ROM I've used so far (thanks for all the hard work!).
Just a couple issues with the new MR8 update:
1. The new market seems to be really slow? (maybe just due to the older Eris' lack of speed?)
2. I don't know if this is a market related issue or not, but I can't install a couple apps I use. The market doesn't give me an option to even download them: Words with Friends and Google Books. I'm not sure if it's related to the new market or if the apps are somehow incompatible with the new MR8 update?
3. Is there a way to get rid of the blue line that appears whenever you tap the screen to make a selection? I've been searching but have yet to find a way. The line just kind of annoys me, personally.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I love this ROM! Thanks!
Dude the same thing has been happening the past two days for me on Deadly and Spicy ROMs. For instance I had not been able to get Titanium but I got my Pro key fine, and same thing with XDA, regular worked fine but couldn't download premium. I took a nap earlier and woke up and had premium I'm about to check Titanium so it may be a Market issue.
Sent from my Spicy Eris GB using XDA Premium App
Good to know. Hopefully it's just a market issue then, but still no luck for me...
same here
i too am wondering why i can't download certain apps from the market, like facebook for example. it's not already installed and i get no download button for that app in the market...but i get download button for most other apps.
also wondering about how to get rid of blue bar on menu selections.

I've seen the same issues with MR8 and MR9... I'm looking into the issue, but haven't found a work-around yet. I'm thinking it may possibly be a result of the build revision bump to 2.3.5 that might be throwing the market off (showing the phone as incompatible with your device), but it's only a theory, no fact to that yet...
Glad to know I'm not the only one as I have been having trouble downloading my premium apps too. I flashed 2.3.5 yesterday. I'm a noob so I was wondering what I Fk'd up... LOL!

http://rootzwiki.com/_/articles/download-android-market-update-3311-r94
That's where I read about it.(someone mentioned it in another thread also...sorry can't remember your name...ill edit if u reply )
Here is a direct download link also found at bottom of the rootzwiki article http://lts.cr/BDW_
I just installed it and so far it looks great. They have finally brought back the "top NEW free" and "top NEW paid" sections for those that.miss that. I know I did.
some new settings options and nice UI tweaks.
I haven't made any purchase/download yet though. Will updated this post when I do.
Hopefully google got it right this time
If you do this I would recommend making a copy of your current vending.apk in case you want to go back. I just used root explorer and copied the apk to my sdcard and installed the new market after that as normal.
Have fun
::::::UPDATE::::::
For all those who are cautious
I have successfully bought apps, updated apps, downloaded new apps, and also downloaded apps I had previously bought but hadn't had installed.
Also when you look at an app it shows you how many of each different star ratings it has.
I.e.-- 5stars:20 users
4stars:60 users
3stars:30 users
Etc..
Working smoothly all around. Much better than 3.1.5 or 3.1.3 imho
thanks man, will be uploading now!!!
I'm loving the new market. It's very polished now. The icons are now sized properly on the screen.
thx im loving the auto update
I upgraded last night and am still running into compatibility issues with certain apps ... ended up going back to trusty 2.3.6.
Is there anyone running build.prop edits (in particular, enhanced screen resolution) who has been able to get this version of the market working without any restrictions?

Yeah finally there is no lag when switching between the screens. But it's NOT faster than the old version. :/

I don't really mess wit build.prop other than vm heap, max window events, wifi scan interval.
and I have not once ever had a compatibility issue.
Did you send feedback about that to google?
They might have something you can do or may work on it for future market versions
Anyone else having issues with the new Google Play Market? Literally every app I open up reads as incompatible with my device. Is this the case for anyone else? I'm currently on Vegan Froyo... is this just an issue for this ROM, or is it with all roms? Personally its becoming incredibly frustrating; many of my existing apps don't update, I'm forced to scour the dark ends of the internet for apks of paid apps I already own.
I tried the Market fix.. but that seems to have made issues worse. Any hope??

What apps fail? Give some examples so that others can
tell you if they work on their Vegan Froyo. Apparently
tapatalk works for you .
What is "ro.product.device=" in your /system/build.prop ?
A bad value/corruption there can cause incompatible messages.
I am on TNT Lite, which a Froyo distribution, and Google Play
works without any problems.
This is when an old CWM backup might have helped. Do you have any around?
My latest magic bullet for Froyo is "Fix Permissions" from CWM.
Give it a shot if all else fails.

I also am having a ton of issues with the new and "improved" google experience... the playstore will not load at all on my gtablet. I am running gtabcombover and really like the ROM... it was flawless until the market went stupid on us.
as soon as i try to open the app, i get the "accept" button but before I can even push it, the thing FC's and no matter what I cant make it even initialize. I am really hoping there is a painless and simple fix for this mess. And even more hoping that google hasnt completely cut all rooted devices out of the loop!
any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks
I'm having the same problem as the OP, except I'm using Roebeet's TnT Lite Froyo ROM. I've also tried the Market fix with no luck. Any ideas for solving the problem would be appreciated.
Every app that needs to be updated comes back with a "incompatible with your device" error. Market fix didn't make things worse for me, just didn't help much. I'll have more time for experimenting over the weekend, and, will post if I find an answer. Hopefully it's not due to Google Play seeing it as being a rooted device.
It's probably not because the device is rooted. I am running G-harmony and play works fine for me.
Google Market updated itself to the Google Play store without any problem on both VEGAn-TAB 7.1 and GtabCombOver 3.4.2. I was also able to update all of my apps as usual.
I'm using cm7 rc1 and market is hosed. I have tons of paid apps that are "incompatible" and wont update. I tried build.prop edits but nothing is working. If VeganTAB 7 is working I may switch back to it. Was using beastys rom and Google play made it so half my apps wouldn't update that's why I tried cm7.
Update:
VeganTAB 7 works great with Google play and all my apps updated.

Try this suggestion out the next time around, instead of resorting to installing a different ROM.
Google Woes 2
I have a rooted G-Tab with Calkulin’s ROM v1.1 and clemsyn 2.6.32.9 kernel. Everything was running great with no problems. Google changed to Google Play and something has happened with the authenication. Downloads fail (all of them) and the Market fix does not work.
Gtab using Flashback 10.3 Google play
Similar issues here as well, My apps are updating ok but when I go to open Google Play to search for an app it crashes/forces closes. Been searching threads and found none that give clear fixes for this. THANKS GOOGLE!!!!
@aNiMeMaN14
If you know how to edit the build.prop you could try to edit the line for the manufacturer replace what's there with Samsung just remember to make a note of what was there to start. It worked for me but I'm on the DRH ice rom you you may not see it in the overall search but in you put in the name of the app you want it should come up and allow you to download n install. REMEMBER IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE DONT DO IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE COULD CAUSE YOU TO NVFLASH AND REBUILD FROM START HAVE BACKUP. TRY THE ONE IN THE CWM ROM.
there is a modded market available now thanks to the people here on Xda
