new market rolled out officially or no? - HTC EVO 3D

Has anyone received the new market officially yet?

When its official, you will get it. The only other way is to side-load it and deal with the problems that come with that.

yeah i was just wondering if it was just me, something wrong with my phone or something.

My buddy has an unrooted dx2 and he got it?????? But my wife and kids still have the old market on the og Evo and 3d. Hmmmmm

Well when I'm unrooted on my thunderbolt I get the update. But as soon as I root and change roms it goes back to old one.

Wow, thanks!!! I will reinstall now...
How did it change? When you updated? Or was the original one different..? I updated to 1.6.0 already and it looks the same minus the new features added with 1.6.0 (video upload) Are you guys talking about the facebook for sense..? I didn't even notice if the stock FB app was pre-installed. I just installed from the market. I wanna say it was NOT..?
Yeah it wasn't. When I first got my 3D I went to activate Facebook and it wasn't there so I downloaded from the market

More changes. The like/comment buttons on the right side are now different. Wonder how they're pushing these changes. Too bad the phone didn't come with Facebook app or that would be a possible exploit.

[Q] Photon to Evo 3D?

Hi guys, I seem to be swimming against the current, so to speak. I upgraded a couple weeks ago from the HTC Hero to a Motorola Photon. I'm now having some buyer's remorse. I think the Evo 3D is much better suited to my needs. Over on the Photon forums, you can find all manner of folks that had an Evo 3D but switched to the Photon in the 30-day window.
Are there any folks out there that have done what I'm thinking about? Namely going from Photon to Evo 3D? If so, what has your experience been like? Are you happy with the switch?
The Photon's phone is fantastic, and it would allow me to roam globally. Yet, the Motorola UI is crap for business. Widgets are ugly, uninformative, and tedious. The launcher is basically un-customizable. The mailboxes are unified, and you can't create a homescreen shortcut to just one inbox. It's a nightmare! Even my craptastic Blackberry Pearl let me split my inbox accounts! Call logs on the Photon don't display call length, and the phone requires drivers up the a$$ just to charge from a PC! WTF?
I realize I will probably have to give up a bit on call quality and perhaps speaker volume, but somebody please tell me it's better than the Hero!
Any advice?
Come on over and play. You will love the 3D. Most of the people that jumped ship to the photon was because of the locked bootloader on the 3d. Well that ain't a problem anymore. You can unlock and root your 3d with ease now so come and join the fun.
Make the switch, don't left the rep apply software updates, just activation. (Check the phone in the store before leaving, don't let the sales rep leave! Make sure the physical hardware is ok.) Unlock bootloader & grab a recovery with revolutionary, flash superuser file to root, install a rooted 2.3.4 Rom.
Enjoy life knowing you've made a better investment.

This sounds intriguing. Presumably if they update in the store i'll get a firmware version that's not rootable yet? I'll have to make sure I take your advice. What software version do I want? Or maybe I should ask what version do I want to AVOID?

2.08.651.2 is the version to avoid if I remember correctly and you're correct, its not rootable yet. We have a lot of great dedicated devs here and there are more on the way. You'll be happy to make the switch and if you miss your kickstand, there are cases that will satisfy your need

OTA - fixed all my issues

Ok.. I flashed back to stock yesterday. I was returning the phone because of my GPS issues. I had to reboot to get GPS to lock every time.
After the stock flash, I got an OTA message. I figured "why not"
The GPS seems to work perfect. I can get locks consistently. It also seems a whole lot faster and more responsive. The lagginess is gone.
I highly suggest flashing stock (previous) with RSD lite then getting the update.
Same here. I have service again in my house!

It seems Motorola (or google) is really fast on updates.
This phone is not even two months old and already 2 OTA's.
My son's Epic is still on 2.2!

All you had to do was tell Sprint and they will send you a free airave.
How do u return to stock? I can't install ota. I'm missing native apps?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I agree with most the new OTA really did fix alot of things which I thought the 1st OTA mess up with my Photon.
Plus it also un-rooted the phone... so now I can try to sale it

New Market: Play Store

Here's the new market apk for you guys if you don't get it.
Discuss below.........
Thanks
I have no idea what's goin on?
cool!
soo... what should i do to install it?
i know stuff that has to do with the market can get kinda touchy...
Careful, hearing reports it breaks bill to carrier option (it did for me...)

Kinda weird. I moved it to system/app and it names itself back to Market and has the old icon, but when opened, its the new Play store.

I took the update through the market itself, not the apk floating around and my bill to Sprint works just fine.
Bought World of Goo and Dead Space for .49 c
My bill to carrier was broken for some reason and I never got this update

When I switched phones a couple weeks ago that option went away for me. Not sure if it's sprint or the market. I've heard they started doing away with it March 1st. Not sure how true that is though.

I believe if you go into settings>applications>market and clear cache and data it will prompt you. It should anyway. Might need to reboot afterwards.

Same here, I uninstalled the updates and then updated again (apparently), but it appears with the old white and green icon, and its called market... Did you figure out how to get the new icon and name??

[Q] If you have a rooted phone, can you use the One Up program for an upgrade?

I was just wondering will Sprint let you upgrade to a new device with the One Up Program (or with their standard upgrade program) if you have a rooted phone? I have an EVO 4G LTE rooted with CM 10.1 and my upgrade is a few months away. Did Sprint give anyone problems? Or do they not care?
Thanks
It is best that you unroot your phone, but it shouldn't hurt you. just hide the root app

My store (in Orange County, CA) is a pain in the butt with the phone being in a hacked state, if you can hide the Unlocked bootloader state, you will almost be certain to be good to go.

Thanks everyone. Hopefully sprint doesnt give me any problems.
The store here didn't care when I traded in my rooted and custom ROM Evo 3D
I've never seen em give a damn about root and custom ROMs, after having my screen replaced 3 times and speaker twice (last speaker got me a whole new bezel, but I remained S-off, so I know they didn't swap out. YMMV. If there's more than one store close, I'd just go do it with root, if they give you any guff, flash stock and hit the other one.

You can always just RUU the phone and use regaw leinads tool to set it back so the bootloader looks like it is s-off!
I've traded in rooted phones at my local corporate store and they never cared, even when I told them it was rooted.
