I have rooted my Atrix and installed Gingerblur 3.5 on my phone. I then wanted to go back to stock os that came with the atrix. I used RSD lite and went back to v 1.26. Before I went to Ginger blur I had a android market that had green on the top on the app. When I went back to v 1.26 it lokked like a plain market with no green on the top and has three icons that say apps, games, and att. I wanted to know how change the market to the one I had before Gingerblur
I believe you could Google for themed market.apk find one you want. Either root to side load app or adb push. Backup of og. is recommended

I wanted to get the stock market that came with the phone no root How would I get it back I have two Atrix one is me moms and one is mine we have the same update but two different markets
Can you use adb?

what is adb
Hopefully, I understand your question correctly.
The android market is a self updating application. If you reflash a sbf and you have an older version, it should autoupdate itself to the latest version. The quickest way to facilitate this is to start the android market app and then press the home hard key to exit out of the application but leave it running. If you use the "back" hard key, you will quit out of the application and it shouldn't be running in the background.
After 15 to 20 minutes, exit out of the market by hitting the back button and then restart it. It should be the latest version at this point.
Hope this works. It worked for me to update my version after flashing the 1.8.3 sbf after I was going back to stock from Gingerblur.
I am trying your way now just have to wait 15-20 minutes now so you know I flashed back to 1.26 and then went to settings on the phone and downloaded the 1.83 update and installed it.
I waited about 15 -20 minutes and restated the market it is still the old version I even turn the phone off and turned it back on
I got the apk file for the update for the market is there any way to install it in the phone

Sorry it didn't work. It had worked for me when I flashed 1.8.3 and needed to update the market. It should work per the google android market help. I'd post the link, but apparently you have to post 8 times before posting a link.
Best of luck.

Just wondering if anyone has anything (good/bad) to report about the OTA update. Figure this would be a good place to post those issues for the people who are still hesitant about updating. I have the 2.1 v3 non-root and have yet to update. Thanks.
Having issues with 2.1 I can't find ANY HTC widgets. Tried to reload the digital clock with the weather app at the bottom and realized the phone doesn't have any HTC widgets, only shows the android native widgets. Anybody else having this problem, got any advice how to solve this?
I just manually updated to 2.1 (Official) and now my weather app doesn't work. Widgets are ok, just opening the app causes a force close. Any way to fix this? Might call customer support tomorrow and tell them the OTA got to me and it won't work now.
From what I've seen around a reboot might fix that if you haven't tried that already

Haha thanks, but I've tried it several times. Also, the recovery doesn't work with the official update.zip. I'm assuming that it's because the versions are the same, but if it says RECOVERY then I'm wondering why it won't RECOVER like I'm trying to do now. Any other ways to reinstall the OTA?
I manually updated my wife's around 10 am today and about 3 hours ago, she started havin no sound issues. couldnt hear through the earpiece, phone vibrates instead of rings, speaker will not play volume. I have tried everything. Making sure all settings are in place like volume TTY. Reboot fixes it for about five minutes then right back to the same thing. Hard resetting now. If it still does it I'll probably take it in and demand a new one i guess...lol
EDIT: Should I have to reprogram on a hard reset after this update? Hmm somethings not right about that...
Ive had no problems with the OTA. I went from stock 1.5 to OTA 2.1
It seems that people with leaked 2.1 v3 won't get the ota. My friend has an Eris with 1.5 and just got
it but I didn't.
-------------------------------------
Sent via the XDA Tapatalk App
I don't think anyone who is running any leaked version is getting an update right now. There is an issue with the hboot versions it seems.
Don't worry, two things have been confirmed.
First the OTA will not work with the leaked ROMs installed.
Second, the OTA is exactly the same as the 2.1 leak v3.
This was confirmed on Android forum by someone that took the time to compare every single file and CRC the binaries. The only difference was that the leaked ROMs use a different bootloader to install as they did and the actual OS and apps are exactly the same so if you got leak v3 you got the OTA.
The OTA won't install because you are already running it.
if you have rooted 2.1 (test keys) and you downgrade to back to 1.5 any one if this will allow you to get the OTA update? i installed the rooted 2.1 (test keys) but never installed a custom ROM (the second half of the directions on XDA forum) and I still haven't received the update. but I was thinking of downgrading to 1.5 to see if i can get the update.
anyone having problems with live wallpapers on 2.1? or was this not included with the 2.1 for eris?

Unfortunately it wasn't included.
just found out about 2.1 this morning...
I'm a verizon rep for an authorized premium retailer, and one of my customers came up to me today with her eris complaining about all her contacts being gone and her album not being there... her exact words: "What happened??? I clicked the update thingy and now half my ****'s gone!" Personally I laughed slightly, then checked the software version, found it updated to 2.1 and figured the deal. Her sound is working fine, she now has a couple more widgets she wont know how to operate, and albums is now "photos", and contacts is now "People". also required a resync to get her contacts back, but now she's golden.

Quick question about TaskBar (process killer) widget. Anybody know how to program it to ignore certain processes? Like sense... I tried using it but it killed sense every time. Along with mail and the weather process, which I don't care so much about, waiting for sense to reboot every time is a serious pita though...
I previously had 1.5 stock eris. I downloaded the official OTA zip and manually installed it. I had a few issues at first.
1. I had Spare Parts installed and had set my End key to first goto home screen and then lock. 2.1 did not like that setting and so my end key wouldn't do anything except turn it on from sleep and end a call until I changed the setting to just lock the phone.
2. Couple apps wanted to be updated to a new version after installing 2.1 before they would work.
3. Here is my unresolved issue - All my apps that I had installed before 2.1 no longer have write access to my SD card.
For example Astro File Manager showed my permissions on /sdcard as dr-. Reloading the card, rebooting, etc did not fix the issue. Uninstalling and reinstalling seems to have fixed the issue.
Why did this happen in the first place and is there an easier fix than uninstalling/reinstalling all my apps?
I've had the same disappearing HTC widget issue as was mentioned earlier, but a reboot (with a battery pull) didnt fix the problem. Is a hard reset my only option?
my girlfriend installed the OTA and now only the stock ringtones work when receiving a call- she set up custom ringtones for a few contacts, but if they call, the default ringtone rings.
I was running the leaked 2.1 eris rom on a MyTouch 3g and had the same issue, so i'm guessing it's not an easy fix. anyone else seeing this?
2.1 OTA back to 1.5
Hi everyone, I had many problems with 2.1 I manually installed 2.1 OTA from 1.5. everything went smooth, once running first thing i notice I click on the HTC clock weather, and it force closes, ok great, found a trick to delete the cache for weather provider, boom works, then i find out I do infact have the 50% time without signal issue, well I figured it wasn't too big of a deal, but after basically cutting my time in half going from 2 days no charge, to barely making one day, and I've heard that it would just take time as it did when first getting the phone.. which makes sense as it was the case with 1.5, week later not much improvement, so..
I would just like to comment on my experience. It went so smooth, it was in-fact easier to set back to 1.5 than it was to initially, manual install the OTA 2.1... I downloaded the MR2 file, unzipped the file, went through the computer on screen step-by-step process, Took less than 10 minutes, and of coarse as soon as turning the phone back on with 1.5 I see the OTA msg. I'm, just praying it doesn't get too annoying..
The Market app updated itself and now crashes after about 5s of launching. I can't download anything. Anyone know a fix? Or how do I revert to the old app and force it not to update?
I'm running CM7.0.3
EDIT: I tried to get the old .apk from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869502 But it didn't work. The installation aborted in Recovery.
Settings, applications, market, clear data
This will make you have to sign back in and accept the eula for the market.
Used to fix mine until I really bjorked it....then had to reload rom and wipe all cache.
No, dude. It still FCs with the same ****. Maybe I should use Titanium to wipe data.
FCing new market
This happened to me too. Apparently there is an auto-update of the market? I had to keep uninstalling it to keep the market working. Then I migrated to the ASOP ROM in which the new market works for me.

I got Titanium to revert, but launching Market updates itself. Besides getting the paid version of Ti and then freezing the app, is there any other way to stop the damn thing from updating itself? Heck! How do I even get the paid version of Titanium if I can't get to the market in the first place.
me too....
everything fine yesterday...today, force closes as soon as i click anything in market.......hoping someone finds a fix. i haven't found one yet.
i hate it when they can't leave well enough alone.
Same here....

I had the same problem sooooo....I just went to settings....applications...market....unistalled the updates and then restarted my tablet. The old market was there and everything worked just fine.
New Market Update released 3.0.27 from 3.0.26 and working on GTAB (so far)
I just sideloaded the new Updated version of market. It seems to be running ok my GTAB (Running GtabComb 3.3 BL1.2)
Though its a tad spotty at times it's not Force Crashing at all as the 3.0.26 version did on this device.
One odd thing to note is: There are now 2 Market Icons in my app drawer.. one loads the stock version and the other loads the 3.0.27 version..
I've attached the file.
Moderators.. I'm not sure if this attachment is allowed..Please Advise if I should edit this post!
TYIA!
tried sideloading....same thing....force closes every 5 sec or so.....
anyone find a fix, or any idea what is causing it? works fine on my phone, is just my gtab that seems affected.

What version Market are you using? I have no issues with mine and has worked like a charm since applying this Market fix a month or so ago. I always had issues with my market until this fix. I am on Market version 2.3.6. You'll need to be rooted...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=861044
I am not sure but have you tried to fix permisions in clockwork mod or if you have ROM manager you can do it from there as well
I am on CM7 and going to Applications, Market, Uninstall Updates worked. Thanks!
I also had the same issues and uninstalled the update. Once I uninstalled, it reverted back and has not tried to update itself.
I am having the same problem!!!
I personally love the new market. Its designed more for a tablet this way, isn't it? Its nice to see my gtab is recognized as a tablet rather than some unknown android device.

Even switching ROMS didnt solve FC new marketplace
the only fix I got was to get TIBU PRO installed, (did this by uninstalling the market updates and immediately launching Market to load TIBU).
Once TIBU is installed (finally), (you may have to uninstall the market update...many many times) but once you have the original market back running on the tab launch TIBU and FREEZE Market Updater 1.0 and finally Market Feedback Agent.
Once that is done, you should be good to go.
EDIT: Dont freeze the Market, else you wont be able to launch it.
The easiest fix is to go to Settings/language and keyboards/ and the set your default language to english. Have not had a problem since I did that.

Well I tried it yesterday and it has seemed to resolve the Market issue. I can't explain why setting the language would have this effect, but it did.

just got the new market and after it updated i'm not getting any internet connections from the market or from browsing with the browser. i can browse the market but i can't download any app.
i uninstalled the new update and had to restart the phone to get everything back to normal, but after exiting the market and going back in, it's updated again.
any of you guys get this?
The data problem is a known issue. Never heard of it re-installing itself though.
anything that i can do to get data connection back?
are you on froyo (4.1.83), updated via OTA to gingerbread, or installed gingerbread manually via unlocking your bootloader?
If you are on radio .30, try downgrading to .15. I am currently on .30 but i think that radio is causing issues.
I fix it by enabling Airplane mode and then disabling it. It resets the radio and the downloads continue. Garbage, but whatever.
The new market is def the culprit for crappy network connection! Someone else posted about this, and how to fix and it's absolutely solved my issues! The solution? Go into SETTINGS, APPLICATIONS, ALL, click on MARKET and then "uninstall upgrade". It reverts back to older market style, but alleviates all the network connection problems.

i'm on official OTA update gingerbread. didn't root.
except by uninstalling the update, the update will continue to install once you exit the old market.
i guess it's either something that either moto has to fix or google themselves. this is ridiculous.
moto is pushing the new market to all devices now,so if you revert,it trys to reupdate
Sucks knowing that it still does this on official 2.3.4 and with official market update. I love the market look but can't use it.

Try creating a new APN with the same HSDPA settings you currently have.

Guys, I'm trying to help out my dad. He has an Atrix, stock unrooted and locked. He updated to 2.3.4 last week. When he installed the new market, he says it signed him out of Google Talk and other apps, and he starts getting lots and lots of Force Closes. I had him "uninstall updates" to revert and the problems went away. Then he tried again and the same issues happened. He can uninstall updates again I guess, but eventually he's going to need the new market, right? Anyone else have this problem?
looks like the new market is causing network connection problems. not sure if there is a cure for this yet. either the new gingerbread ota is causing issues or the new market is causing the issues.
hopefully we get an update from moto or google updates the market with some bug fixes.
Yeah really not impressed with the market... im sure the bugs will get fixed soon though. It has potential.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Yeah I just had my dad test it on WiFi and the problem disappeared. Thanks for the info.
i've noticed that once the phone goes to sleep everything is fine. apps that were selected that failed to download will download while the phone is asleep.
just wish either moto or google would have tested out the new market a bit better.
I would try to find a program that can "freeze" the market updater. You can do it with TItanium Backup but you need to be rooted. I think it will only updat via WiFi so I downloaded everything I needed, then froze the updater and never had an issue. The new market is a pain in the rom.

1) This is not helpful after several hours and two pages of activity.
2) The only other thread with "Market" in the title on the first three pages of the general forum or the Q&A forum is one [Q] thread about how to keep the old market, and it's a) not really the same topic as this thread, and b) newer than this thread.
So.... yeah. Cheers to you too.
Reset via airplane mode works for me
Like "ecapox" on page 1 said, just reset the radio put putting phone in airplane mode and then out.
Interestingly, you only need to do it once. After that, the data connection is still good even with reboot.
Enjoy.
How do you get the new market?

After inadvertently installing 2.3.5 two days ago and breaking root access, I finally got my phone SBFed back to 2.3.4, wiped data, re-rooted, restored the nandroid backup I just happened to make a few days ago, downloaded the OTA Rootkeeper, and updated to 2.3.5.
First question, did they fix the battery glitch from 2.3.4 or is it still a problem?
Second, I'm using LauncherPro and in the middle of the bottom of my home screen, I was always using the App Drawer shortcut. Now if I click on that, all I get are four apps instead of a listing of everything I have installed. Anyone know what happened there? In the meantime I have to switch the shortcut to App Groups just to view everything.

1. Nope - its back ready to fudge up your day
2. Some settings might not be sticking. Or you might have the wrong shortcut icon.

Wow, still no battery fix? That's beyond ridiculous. I was expecting the answer to be "yes" though, yesterday was the first full day of use with 2.3.5 and I ended the night at 1am with 40% battery left. I used it more than I usually do throughout the day and the meter was only two notches down after a 9 hour work day.
I wonder how I can fix the app drawer thing. I know it's not the wrong shortcut, but if something isn't sticking I don't know how to fix it other than uninstalling LauncherPro and reinstalling.
Hey guys! Yesterday late at night my phone finally received the ICS OTA. It's a GSM XT910 Razr and it's not rooted or flashed with any rom. It had the official 2.3.5 GB and now the 4.0.4 ICS. While i was very happy that i got the update actually my troubles started. While ICS was being installed the phone froze and there was no indication or sign of progress with the installation for almost 3 hours! The only thing i could do to make it respond was to hold the power+volume down button to soft+reset it. When the phone rebooted it took like 1 whole hour to reach the homescreen from the Motorola boot logo screen. While ICS were installed and all of the apps installed from the market actually work i am having serious issues with the Core apps of the Android OS. For example i open my photo gallery. When i click to view any photo the phone freezes and i get the message that either the "Gallery" app or the "Android" app stopped working and i have to force stop it. Same happens with my Settings app. The wifi category works, all the rest when i open any of them my phone just freezes and i have to force stop the "Settings" app.
So my thoughts is that the installation was not done completely well and i would like to ask you if there is any way to reinstall Android and redo the procedure that i did last night.
Thanks in advance guys!
try a factory reset.of course you will lose your data but it should work. You can try 're install the update.zip which you'll find here in the dev section, through stock recovery. Make sure you have enough battery.

What's the correct update .zip for a GSM RAZR MAXX from the Claro network in Puerto Rico? I just got one yesterday and am on 2.3.6.
Or would it be better to wait for the official OTA since most all current 4.0.4 updates seem to be riddled with bugs?
