Market? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

how do you update your market app? I don't know if it's because the app is outdated but a lot of common apps don't show up when I search for them. thanks on advance.

Market
Im not sure that you can thats a good question, what if you update the phone itself

If an update is available it should update itself automatically, however you can force it by clearing the market data.
Also try some market enabler to fake your location if there is no update available.

Market should update on its own. Some apps don't show because of location, download a market enabler.

As said earlier, the market should update on it's own. If it doesn't, then you can manually install the apk file: http://www.multiupload.com/O7AIK6RLAL.

try to search on google the apk, the last is market 3.4.4

Thanks for the tip. Skipped my mind to search thru google. By the way, the link you've provided wasn't working.
Is there a specific reason why this app is not available in the market? It would be much easier thar way plus the app can easily be updated right away.

Is there an easier way of getting the update? Appbrain detects taht there is an available update for this app but when redirected to the market informs me that the app cannot be found

Android market applies so many filters while accessing..like the apps are available only for specific countries etc...so I believe this app ain't available for your country...
Try downloading the direct apk and install it manually...

Sympnotic's Patched Market under the Wildfire Android Development Forum. But, even for that, getting it to work is a challenge.

New Android Market

The new market is much much better looking than the old one.
Here is the link to the .apk file of the market. Just download and install it as any other app.

If you're having problems after installing it (I did not have any problem) or you don't like it. Goto Settings>>Applications>>from the upper tab choose All App>>go to market app and click on Uninstall updates. This should get you back to the old Market.
Thanks for the link. It takes a sec to get used to, but looks pretty slick.

question : 1. this release of android market stops the update process if installed on stock 2.3.3GB?
2. Android market will auto-update to this new version or it is available only for some countries? I live in Romania for example.
thank you

This update will be rolled out to all countries and has been released in very few countries (I think only some carriers in US and Canada).
Regarding your first question, I don't think so, but you can never be sure until the next update is released.

I think it cannot break the updates bcoz the market updater is a separate app, not within the vending apk.

so do you think it is possible to have a problem with market updater ?

Im using Mik_os's CM7, I know I need to flash the gapps to set up an account so I assume Im answering my own question, but with just installing this new market apk, it asked me to set up an account but didnt take me to set up an account just went to the homescreen, do I need to install gapps for cm7 than use this new apk as an updater ?
Works fine, but I see (?) Japanese text in app info tab for some apps (eg. Facebook app). But, my system language settings is english. Will be difficult to know about the app.

[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.

I'm very interested too!
I got it!
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.

It ain't work either
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.
Cheers.

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!

Won't let you update or download certain apps if you have changed the density. Don't know if you have or not.

First suggestion is to wipe data for the app. If that doesn't work try downloading the app from the internet. Maybe even an older version and see if that works.

May be you need to flash another rom? Also you can try to delete you play store and market update, then copy vendik.apk(market) in system/app. Works for me.

It doesnt work with my SGS2 CM9, my GIO with beta CM9 and a friends SGS2 with Wanam Lite ROM, so I dont think it has anything to do with market app
More a Googleproblem, maybe Angola problem, but as I changed country with marlet enabler...
