[Q] Unable to see particular App in Market - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am unable to see a particular free app listed in the Market on my rooted Vibrant running stock KB1. App name is "IBNLive" (com.divum.ibn). However, my friends are able access the app from their Captivates.
I tried to to use the Web Market, but it shows up "App is not compatible with your device" message and does not even give me an option to install it.
Is there a way to get this app on my phone? It is a simple news app - so if it can show up on the Captivate, why is incompatible with the Vibrant?

I just looked and I can see it there...

Hmmm... I am not sure what is missing on my phone! Can't think of anything that I might have done wrong.

go to settings>applications>manage applications>ALL Tab>market and clear cache and data and try that.

This usually does the trick but I also suggest downloading appbrain. I can always search appbrain for an app I don't see and it will link me to the market link. I actually had to do it with the XDA app.

I have experienced similar issues I cant see Music Junk and when I search for IBNlive it shows There are no matches in Android Market.
I noticed it when I went from Axura 2.2.9 to Flagship v3.
Possible user error on my part.

I had it come through yesterday afternoon on my x10 just opened the market and there it was but I also own the htc desire which is 2.2 generic but that's still got the old market. So it nice to no the x 10 got somethin first for a change lol so sk_700 your theory is shot to ****

Yes same here. Very annoying. I had some apps that needed updating and when viewing that particular app, the 'update' button text is partially cut off at the top too!
I hope they fix it soon.

How do make the android market detect my ROM

Hello,
I have flashed my vibrant with from JI6 (t-mo) to (bionix V 1.2.1) froyo but the android market still shows that my phone is running JI6.
Is there a setting in the android market that I need to change to make the market see that I am running froyo.
thanks
How do you know what the market sees your phone as?
Does Adobe Flash show up when you search "adobe" ?

Because when I go to the android market website (market.android.com) and then I sign in using my google account.
I clicked on an app, let say car home (google inc, tools). Then Ichoice to device to install too, my vibrant is grey out with a
question mark. I click on the question mark - it will display not compatible to my device.
I tried installing it thru appbrain , it displays that my device is running android 2.1. The car home came with TW nero5 before. BionixV 1.2.1 does not come with it. This is the reason why I want to install it.
Best thing to do would be to ODIN back to stock, then upgrade to froyo (2.2) with Kies Mini, THEN flash a custom ROM. Preferably Bionix-V 1.3.1, works great, and has the awesome of 1.2.1 + 1.3.1 features.
The reason it says that is because the rom probably still has the same modem installed.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
never used mini kies.
mmm.... since I did flash bionixV 1.2.1, does it still use the same modem as J16?
Can someone be kind enough to give me the car home apk made by google?
try using Market Enabler if you want to see more froyo apps.

TBH i've never used it because i've never had problems with Market, but i just downloaded it to see what it looks like, and i think you go to the SETTINGS LIST and then select
[us] TMOBILE (TMOBILE)
which means that you live in the USA and are on TMOBILE network.
choose which-ever network your on.
Then try it

Install apps from market now does not work (devoid.froyo)

Since I installed devoid froyo, the apps that I try to install from market web does not appear on my phone I have checked everything....and It should be Ok). What can I do?
Something else, I have noticed that, the apps which I uninstall on the phone, continue appearing on the "Downloaded apps" section on market app. They continue here, but instead of "Installed" they say "Free" (Just like a normal app that you have not installed)
thanks!

I broke my market before by deleting google talk . Try clearing the data on more google apps inc the download manager. maybe removing a market update may work too

Thanks dude for your suggest, but it continues! I dont understand why...I have tried everything and dont solve
Even the web market continues not working
I would back up what you need to and try a factory reset, thus if its a data problem it will all be cleared. I read about other people having the issue just needed to sign in to google talk (unfortunately for me I cant sign in, in england). If that doesn't work clear everything you can in recovery (except fat32 on the sd) and do a fresh install and try it with out making any adjustments to the rom. Check as you reinstall or delete things to find the fault. Android can be effected by odd things sometimes such as the wrong date or a error in the call log
Aaron, I think that If I do what you say, a complete wipe and fresh install, the bug would solved. But I think...is too much to do, copy all....backup...configurate again... and maybe I lose something, or any setting.....So I prefer continue with the bug and dont risk to install everything from 0
Thanks.
Titanium back up will save things like settings, call logs, and data with the apps (its just a pain to click install all the time) it has a batch back up and batch restore. But I suppose if you just restored everything you may re-introduce the fault. With CWM recovery you can do a advanced restore and select the partition you want to restore. Sorry I cant suggest anything more than wiping and deleting the gapps data
Dude I got the solution,
Even I was having the same problem.
Go to market > settings > filter
N select show all apps.
Thats it.
Reboot the phone n enjoy.
Press thanx if helped u.

Yes you are right, maybe it is the only solution so I would have to do it If I want to fix the bug...Thanks for the help
However I dont understand what you say about restore partition with CWM recovey, what would I get doing it? Well really does not matter because I use Amonra, I have tried both of them and I prefer Amonra much better

[Q] Words with Friends broken since TW Update

Ever since I updated WWF after the TW update, I get an error connecting to the servers and can't play any games. I have tried a forced close and clearing cache. anyone else having problems with this? If so, does anyone have any solutions?
Thanks

I had to update in the market place to fix mine. Works perfect now.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
I played last night and everything worked great, even got push notifications for the first time. WWF definitely needs a paid version for android to get rid of those annoying adds.
That and I can receive chat messages but I can't send them.
Tab 10.1 w/TW Wi-Fi, retail
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
after doing the update from the market, i was able to send messages. I couldn't do anything without it FC or giving me network error message from the version that was loaded with Touchwiz.
How did you guys get the version from the market to update the TW version? When i go out to the Market "Open" is the only option I get.
when you go into settings>applications what version do you have installed? I am running 3.61
Mine shows up as 3.59. Funny thing is that the Market version says 3.61 but "open" is the only option I get.

Try clearing the cache for your market and see if it will come up
Mine is version 3.59 as well.
Same issue when I go to the market.
I just emailed the dev.
When are these adds going to be dealt with?

Naked, work was blocking the download. After getting impatient I tried logging into the Android market on my PC and forcing an install on my tablet. It worked like a charm! I am now running 3.61. I am testing it now, but I have yet to get an error.

Sweet, glad you got it working. Good idea on doing the web page market and forcing the upgrade. I'll keep that in mind in the future.
I have seen often programs not able to update properly when they are located /system/app. Since the it was part of the upgrade to TW, they have it located there.
The install from Market worked great for me as well.
Never knew you could do that.

TripleTapper, can you please explain more? Now do you "force install" from the market? It just tells me that my Nook Color is incompatible with the app, and the buttons are greyed out.
Thanks.
I just opened the Market using the browser on my PC. When I do that and search for Words for Friends I click on install. It then gives me an option to install onto my various Android devices by selecting it from a pull down. My Galaxy Tab comes up as Samsung GT-P7510.
Words has been working flawlessly now! : )

Tasker on Touchpad?

I have been using Tasker for over a year now on my Atrix and would love to load it on my touchpad, but it appears it is not suppported according to the Android Market. Has anyone gotten it to install? Is this just a matter of the Market or the app creator not being caught up with the dev done on the touchpad?
Maybe copy your tasker apk form your Atrix, than use it on TP?

You can use an app called bluetooth file transfer. Once paired theres an option to send apps from your phone to the touchpad. It works great...

/data/app/
You can just email it to yourself and install from the attachment.
If you can't find it that way, you can download app monster, and manually make a backup of Tasker, then navigate to app monster folder and email it from there. This is what I do when apps dont show in the market. Hell, Im bored ill try right now.
and yes Tasker works beautifully.

It shows up in the Market from my TouchPad for me. I've had it installed since the first day I switched over to CM7, but I haven't really done much with it, except to verify that it does recognize events and execute tasks.
So I tried coping it from my phone, but when I ran the apk it wouldn't install on the touchpad. In the market my device is greyed out unfortunatly, I am using MIUI... Guess I will have to try the backup route
Maybe a MIUI vs CM issue?
