go to SETTINGS/APPLICATIONS/make sure the filter is set to ALL and scroll down to MARKET... click it and hit UNINSTALL UPDATES . this method worked when i received the the SIMILAR tab update,but im not sure if itll completely remove the NEW revamped market.
HIT THANKS BUTTON PLZ =) no need to install an old vending.apk

Actually can't because to the Nero system it thinks the new market is the only market so I didn't update it. Do I can't uninstall updates.
Nero beta 3 + oclf

You can uninstall updates of "market" app, but itll update it self again automatically with next start. Hopeless.. I guess google devs never thought that android users will prefer old look of their app.

Which version is considered old?
So which version is considered old and how can you find out what version someone is currently running?
On the link(s) provided earlier, there are several apk files that are simply labeled Vending.apk, so which one should you choose?

Does anyone have the stock market apk? I've been having issues downloading any apps and it seems that the solution is to use the Eclair Market. Thanks in advance

In my experience, if you can just uninstall the update, do that. If you can't, pushing the old market usually doesn't fix it.
There is a thread on here that shows you some options to clear that should make it work.

I tried literally all the suggested solutions of clearing. Pushing the old one is probably the only viable option left.
Didn't work for me. But goodluck

If i'm using Astro, all I gotta do is copy the apk to the system folder & install then reboot??
Application fails to install.
Anyone else seeing that?
Update: Installed now. Works. Not sure why it was not installing when I downloaded using the XDA app.

You do not need to put the apk in the system folder you can just install it from any folder just like you are install an app from the market, no reboot necessary.

I havent tried this app yet, but Im guessing you would just reset the defaults for the program. settings>applications>manage applications>search and tap on the app>scroll down and tap on clear defaults
Has anyone noticed the little equalizer next to the song stays on as the song is playing even when I stop the song I just wonder if this is eating up anyones battery.Also if I do decide to keep this one how can I go about deleting the old one I know it's something pulling the apk from astro but where do I find it at I'm really new to all this sorry.
It foes not overwrite the stock music app so just uninstall.

Thanks for the info Kenn! So if we don't want to wait for the worldwide release, is it okay to just use one of the downloads you provided? Will it just install over my current market, or will I run into some problems?

its not your signal, it wont even download for me over verizon mifi. the download just sits there with "downloading..." nogo.
I got my Evernote download to finish after several tries, and even downloaded a couple games. I'm not sure, but someone who hasn't updated yet should test their market right now. Could there just be an overload due to a bunch of people rushing to try the new market?

Just some clarification - I couldn't use the Sideloading Wonder Machine to install this as it is already installed on my phone, so to get it to install, just push it to the phone or put it on the SD Card (internal or external), and use a file explorer to install it. It will ask if you want to install over the existing app, and obviously you want to.
Works like a charm! And by charm, I mean slow as crap right now, but that's cool, it's not even supposed to be out yet.... Thanks Kenn!

[Q] Is there a 'market enabler' for the new market?

Hi, so I have Market Enabler installed and for some reason it doesn't seem to work on the new market. Also, cf3d's 'open market' seem to have no effect either.
Is something broken? Anyone knows of a market enabler that works with the new market? Thank you!
We need a market enabler that works with 3.0.27
It will be made, its just a matter of time. Im very interested in this too, I had to rollback to the old market because of this.

Download the attached file.
You will find Market 2.3.6 (april 2011) and follow the instructions file.
Now I return to this version of Market which is fully compatible with Market Enabler!
Tested in a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000.
Yes we know it works with the old market. What we need is a market enabler for the 3.0.27 version of the market.

You should be able to get free apps. Only problems with market enabler is actually buying apps. So, roll back and reupdate or something.

I still cannot find the google maps..
The app seems to be working, it gives green mark and everything,
But when I search for the blocked apps such as google maps and most other google's inc, it doesn't find (which it was found-able when the old market)
any sollution?
I also tried the Flamingo's advice, but also no changing the search results.

Did you clear all data / cache? for Market? then emulate on boot a new provider and reboot. I am using it ever since the new market was released and it works.

Did the same on a Optimus 2x and it didn't work.
I had to uninstall the market update and MarketAccess works as advertised.
Cheers!
This thread should probably be in the general section rather than under SGS II.
I am also using the old market but instead of using an APK I simply uninstalled the update for market from 'manage applications' to go to the old market. Also had to uninstall the market updater system app using Titanium otherwise it updates automatically. Very irritating.
+1 for a solution for the new market since I have to do this every time I change ROMs (which is often). However, the new market is ugly as anything. The waste of screen real estate is appalling!

Once the old market is installed, and you run it does it autmatically update them to the new market again?
And also you should link to the original dev.

You can also stop the market updating itself by opening up terminal and typing:
su -
pm disable com.android.vending.updater
You will get a message to say its been disabled. I usually just use route explorer to move a copy of the old market (vending.apk) to system/apps and set permissions, run terminal with the above command and voila! Must say though, it will be nice to see how this installer works, especially if it cuts down on excess finger tapping..
I've never been able to use any of the new markets, its awful. Not sure if there's any weird issues with the internet around here but it was so hard to get anything installed. It could take 20 mins to install a single app, I could have configured my whole phone from scratch in that time!
Good work!

Haha yeah i know what you mean, i had a few problems with some of the new versions as well, just like that but with mine it would never actually install. It would finish the download then say it was corrupt and could not install. Or something along those lines. But the newest one seems to work for me now. The only reason i want an old market is for the old theme of it.
Cheers for the info tho, ill have a look, havent installed this yet, just finished putting Flame.E 0.2 on my mimmi.
