I tried to update the Facebook for Android app in the market to the newest version just now, but after it downloaded it wouldn't install, saying something about the package not being signed correctly (or something along those lines). So I decided to try to uninstall my current Facebook first and then install the new one thinking that would work. I backed up Facebook using Titanium Backup and uninstalled it. Then I went to the market and downloaded it again. However, it wouldn't install once again (saying "Incompatible update" this time). So I think, OK whatever, I'll just restore my old Facebook, which worked fine. But when I try to restore it using Titanium Backup, that won't work either! It just says "Application not installed." So what do I do? This is the first time that Titanium Backup wouldn't restore something for me. Has anyone had this problem before? Thanks in advance.
I'm rooted, running CM7 Stable, MattedBlues theme, and faux123 CFS kernel.
I'm not sure if this will help you. Here is a copy of the facebook APK, version 1.5.2, before the last update that messed everything up.

Weirdest thing ever. I rebooted my phone and my old facebook was back! No Titanium Backup or anything, it was just there. Except the icon didn't have the MattedBlues theme like it did before (which is odd). Not gonna try updating again obviously, since it works now.
Thanks for the apk though, that's what I would have tried if it didn't magically appear.

Hmmm, I haven't had problems syncing contacts. I have noticed that you need to go back in and select it after the intial setup for the settings to 'stick' though.
Also the offical FB app is horrible. I wish the Bloo developer was still developing.
New FB updated is out! All bug fixes should be fixed now!

Just went to look for an app and my Market seems to have stopped working. The icon has changed and when I try to open it I get an error saying "The linked program is no longer installed on your phone".
I was using the 2.2 Market (from Modaco) and have just tried to install it again but upon trying I get an error saying "Application Not Installed".
The only thing I've done to the phone since last night when it was woking properly was try the BFS version of Flykernal-11c (I was running the non BFS version).
I also use AppBrain but I can't see how that would have broken it.
Maybe Google have somehow stopped 2.2 Market from running on run on 2.1 ROMs?
Anyway, does anyone how can I get the old Market back without restoring from a Nandroid back-up or flashing the ROM again? Is there a 2.1 Market apk available?
Thanks,
Lee
i 'm running on latest market no problem so far.. & about installing thing just download market from somewhere & use adb/push it .,

Yeah, I'll see if I can find an earlier version somewhere.
I can figure out most problems myself but I must admit, this one has me stumped!
Not having much luck so I'm restoring from Nandroid.
Hopefully there's only a few things I'll have to reinstall... but AppBrain will help there
I'll report back about the Market issue.
All working now. Only have 4 apps to re-install and 3 phone numbers to change. No biggie, but pity there wasn't an easier way to fix it.
the majority of my installed apps from the market are not showing up in the "My downloads" part of the market. Ive tried all normal fixes and none of them work:
TiBu Market Doctor
Fix Permissions (This actually isnt working for me on this ROM either)
Uninstalled/Reinstalled Vending.apk
Cleared Market cache/data
Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have other ideas on how i would fix this??
Hmmm, that is strange. All of my apps are showing up.
My market updated to the latest leak out and it started doing that. I uninstalled the update then restarted after that and all my app showed. Now my market updated agaib to the latest one but now all my apps show olin the my apps section. So try that.

I saw some ppl tweeted this earlier. Seems to a market problem.
Topshelf: I'm guessing you are using TB to restore apps? On almost all flashes I have the same problem after restoring. I usually uninstall an app that I know is installed, reboot, clear cache, then usually in one of those steps it brings back all my apps. GL
anyone else having this problem?
As it says, where can I get the most recent market? I think I have one for 2.3.3 but it keeps overwriting it.. Also how do I find out what version the market is actually up to, and how do I freeze it with Titanium Backup? Haven't been able to find anything on that one.
Thanks!

Don't press and hold down on it, just tap and you'll get the option to freeze it.
I got the Black Transparent also but there is no way for me to sign up an account. Can anybody help me please?
So I successfully rooted my phone last night and this morning I decided to remove some bloatware. Somewhere during my exploration I deleted a file which caused all the text to on my widgets to appear bigger and in red. I did a Nand Restore and a factory reset. I'm still rooted BUT I don't have my Market Place, GMail, I can't sync GMail. I go to "Accounts and Sync" settings and there is no GMail add on...only regular mail. I downloaded through the regular phone browser the Gmail APK and Android Market APK and nothing. I click on the Market....it asks if I wanna sync an account...I say yes and it takes me back to the home screen. Gmail...same thing. Help will be greatly appreciated
EDIT (7-30-11 @ 1:10pm)- I did a Nand restore, apps and all and everything is back to normal....BUT still no Gmail or Android Market

Ahh that is unfortunate but if u can download Gapps separate. The Gapps=google Apps. Just look on most cyanogenmod threads for the link to Gapps. For future reference twrp can backup Gapps too its located in the nandroid menu.

bro, you gotta go download the gapps package.
Get the zip, flash it through recovery. Your problems will be over.
Here's the link, even.

Awesome....thanks for the help guys. Everything is now running smoothly and flawless. And I removed the bloatware that I wanted to remove.
With the newest market update, I am constantly getting force closes with it. I am running CM7 (2.3.5, kernel 2.6.35.7) and the market version in question would be 3.1.3. I have tried clearing the app cache and uninstalling the update. I also tried using one of the old market apks, but it just updates and I am back to square one.

Same here. I a tually have a backup of a MIUI.us ROM loaded with all my app's. I load that and do update any apps needed. Use Titanium to backup the update. Then reload over to my CM7 and restore the app's freshly updated. Its a pain but I don't know what else to do for now.
I just noticed today that the Market Feedback is version 2.3.4, which I wonder if is related to the kernel version.

That was the first thing I did. I even made sure to wipe my phone 3 times. All I did was install nightlies 176 (then also did the same for 177/178) and first thing I installed after setup was the new v3.1.3 market. It still FCed. So I wiped again and tried v3.0.27 and now it FCs. Which is confusing the crap out of me I can't go backwards.

Actually had to go back to the 03/07/2011 version of GAPPS. I flashed that under root. Then fixed permissions. Rebooted and opened the old market. Agreed to the terms. Sat and downloaded ROM Manager (just picked a random app to see if it would crash). Downloaded and installed fine. Closed the old market. Noticed my launcher icon changed from the old market icon to the new one. Opened the market again and it had updated. Checked "My Apps" and was finally able to update my needed apps.
On a side note I opened up Titanium Backup PRO and noted three apps that were new.
- FOTA Kill v1.0
- Google Backup Transport v3.0
- Talk v1.3 (no idea why that's a new app)
Haven't rebooted yet, but that's a step in the right direction at least....

goto your system settings > languages menu and just change the language to english. This should fix it. I also tried many things, but this worked. using cm7 on desire Z.

Yeah I tried that and it did not work. Even selecting English again did not work. But at least there are options, as some work for different setups!
Weird issue but I haven't heard much about it since last week. Hopefully something like this doesn't pop up with every update!
