untill it starts to be in all the roms, any way to flash this?
i have the apk, tried to do it through App Installer
gonna try adb next
a few people are having problems with getting it to work on cyanogen based roms
I assume, though I could be totally wrong, that there will be no need to flash this or install it. Your market will just show up looking like that someday. In engadget's post about it, they mention "Google's pushing the update to every Android 1.6-and-above device over the next couple of weeks".
im not sure when ill add it ,, looks like some people are haven issues with apps ,, also not sure if i like the fact that if u pay for a app u only have 15 minutes to ask for a refund ,, what if the app works fine , then later on it doesnt work right? i guess u bought a bad app lol i dunno not sure if i like that
As far as I can tell, it's all just a new interface, plus, they changed things like only having 15mins now to get a refund instead of the 24hrs... which is kind of retarded.
The new market is working fine, all apps dloaded with it stick after reboot. If you're using this on a 2.1 rom, delete the Vendor.odex file in system/app if your rom isn't deodex'd already.
if you're on a CM rom, just rename the .apk to Vendor.apk (if it's named something else) and put it in system/app using adb or a file manager.
I attached it already renamed if anyone wants it...
So this is not a pushed update as engadget stated? How are all the other non-rooted android users gonna get it?

I'm not sure exactly, my guess would be through your google account, since it isn't a carrier specific update...
anyone know the answer to this?
I can make a flashable zip for those interested... even though all of you should be able to use adb or a file manager and place it in system/app by now
A flashable zip would be great. How did the market get the new "similar" and "related" tabs? I assumed this update would be pushed the same way. Btw, where are you getting the file to even make a flashable zip? Is it in the Android SDK or something?

you can find it on a few sites for download
Any ideas I installed the new market wiped, cleared data and all I can do is open the market up. As soon as I select an app it force closes on me.

This zip works great for me so far. Though I dont like the new market. The tabs made it easier to flip between things and the rotating apps at the top is slow on a slow phone. It looks like they tried to make it look nicer (and failed in my opinion) but ended up making it less functional.
Google apps always look simple and sophisticated. This Market overhaul looks overdone and tacky with too much "pizzaz".

Agreed!
hmmm it might just be preinstalled on new android devices, since i dont think any carrier would do a OTA update, so maybe only rooted users will have the new market for a while?
any other thoughts?

Yeah, that shocked me. 15 minutes isn't much time to make sure an app works fine for your purposes. For apps that have free/trial versions, then you can check those out first, but what if it's the paid options that don't sufficiently work. I think one or two hours is reasonable, but 15 minutes is ridiculous.
I think ROMs should keep the current version of the market and people can use flashable zips to go to the new version if they want.
Hi Guys,

Sony PlayStation games are anywhere from 10 to 15 years old, thats why they look this way, the tablet is working fine.
They're not going to look any better on a playstation; it's an old system and that's about as good as games got back then...
That being said, it's still fun and nostalgic to play some of those old titles!

So true! It will be nice to play those classic PS games one more time to remember old times! hehe but I must recognize that as many old video games, I didn't remember them looking so bad! haha but that's just my memory not the tablet!!
By the way there is a software rendering and some other settings for each game which help compatibility with psxperia on native emulator on experia play. See if it helps. I have not strated playing psx games on the tablet as i cannot attach a ps3 controller (maybe because im still on 3.1 fw) and for now xperia play experience is better

when you say I will eb able to download games, where from exactly?
I don't mean to sound thick- it may be right in front of me I just can't seem to find it.
Are you referring to the Account Manager available from Market?
Where exactly do you go after this has been downloaded because from what I can tell this is just need to run video and Music unlimited....
thanks in advance
there should be a PS store app installed on your tablet already

I had this, yet it wouldn't open. 1 factory reset later and it's no longer installed
I'll have to try to get my hands on the apk and install it manually. Hate having to find workarounds to things that should just work fine
try opening your video unlimited app; it's synced to the ps store somehow and last time I opened it was when it asked me to upgrade. Just a thought...
Im not sure what I did anymore, but its back now... might have goten it from a sony site
Hello. I had a game from internet called the world of magic 1.1.0 and it worked perfectly on my glaxy 5 i5500 and now they updated it on android market and i cant download it anymore cause now it sais it wont work but it does. Most of the games work on android market that it sais it wont. So Im begging for help or advice what to do cause the game is my favourite. (i hate android market) I think it should be free to download any free game you want and see if it works or not or have the warning that it might not work and you can still download it. What should i do, cause i cant find the 1.1.1 update on google only 1.1.0. It's a free app too so no one has posted it anywhere. I was wondering that maybe Some of you could do the hassle and get me the apk of The World Of Magic 1.1.1 update. or should I somehow contact the game owners? which will take longer i think
I thought you can pay for it and if you change your mind, you have 15 minutes to uninstall to get a refund?
its a free game.. so what refund could i get? XD
Its not the market, on app upload the dev can specify a minimum DPI(ldpi, mdpi or hdpi) to install, so blame the dev.
Sent from... somewhere...
it really does suck. cause i contacted the game devs. they didnt even aprove my post on their forums. Stupid i tell you ... Its like this with most of the games. The games run on my phone but it sais its not compadible i think its cause i have small phone (galaxy 5 i5500)
I've tried rooting the phone or whatever but none of the rooting things work for me. Anyways i read somewhere when you root your phone you can change the name of ur phone so it would say something else for the phone name on the android market.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
The market looks at your dpi in build.prop, which governs the scale of the UI, so putting it above the default is a very bad idea, I tried it once take it from me.
Yes you require root for it though, possibly s-off

Well thats all stupid -.- im starting to hate the fact that I have decent phone and Im not able to download and try apps. The market thing is a fraud people should be able to download whether it works or not and just test themselves.

Wipe data and cache of market app. Then search the game, select it, and while its loading the page the download button is visible, so click it and there you go Well, please be aware that you won't receive any notification for available updates!

hmmmm ok, well i saw that but skipped over it
because on all my other roms/including stock, i dont remember it being an app,it would just auto-connect
and it was always a system apk as well
let me go check it out though
It was excluded because CM10 has absolutely nothing to do with ATT. Or any phone for that matter. So unless somebody kangs CM10 and adds in an app, it's going to always be as bare bones Android as you can get.
Essentially, CM10 isn't ever a bloat removed version of any phones stock ROM, because it's build from aosp source, so the bloat was never there to begin with, and likely wouldn't be added in anyways.

I like that app as well. That wsa the only thing I didn't like about my ROM, so I did a nandroid, restored to stock, pulled that system app, and restored my nandroid.
Lucky for you and anyone else that wants it, I just happen to have placed it in my Dropbox.
Make sure to place it in /system/app (Don't install it like a normal APK) and change permissions to rw-r--r--
You will need to manually connect to attwifi the first time if you haven't already.

the system app one is just hotspots,mostly ATnT ones i believe

the system app one, like if you're at mcndonalds , will connect to it automatically (mcndonalds is one of the stores on ATnT wifi partnerships)
if you didnt have the app, you can still connect(its free wifi no password) but you would have to first open up a browers, read the agreement, and hit accept blah blah, before you can start using the wifi. again the system app skips all that and just connects you

It also skips all the payment info at some places that still charge for WiFi, so long as it's powered by AT&T. I wouldn't mind having this feature back as well, even though I'd rarely ever use it. Honestly, my cell is faster than the WiFi at any Starbucks or McDonalds around here. But I can see a use for it while traveling. Maybe download one of the stock ROM flashable zips and just extract the necessary apk, put it in /system/app and see if it will work that way. I'd try myself, but I'm a tad busy lately and already in trouble for all my downloading this month.
EDIT: Forgot to mention, the one on Play is too bloated. I don't want that junk handling all my WiFi.
Is this what you guys are looking for

Well, Mr. Useless Retort, I was searching for this very apk and was about to download it until I looked at his stats. You see, the fact that a post is a year old doesn't make a lot of difference if it has information you need. You see, Mr Useless, that's why the forum goes back many years.
Note that my reply wasn't intended for him, it was to warn off anybody else who might think about downloading this.
See how that works??
I think you can get this apk from the market, or what I do is google for apks -- especially older ones when the market updates me and the update sucks. I haven't been burned yet.

Well, haven't tried yet, since I always completely reinstall BlueStacks from anew. I suppose it should work for updates where they changed the emulator, but it's questionable for upgrades where they changed Android, because that would probably be in the rootfs.
So the only thing I can say is: If you're lucky. I would suggest backing up your old 'Root.fs' and 'Data.sparsefs'-directory, so when it doesn't work you can easily put those 2 back to revert.

Actually, at this end Google Play Store doesn't crash, nor does ADW (or I wouldn't have added it). I know Play Store didn't work for me in 0.7.x, but that got solved since 0.8. Did you freshly reinstall BlueStacks or have you always upgraded? Because upgrading could always be the culprit, seeing as it will probably not have been made to expect rooted systems...
Theoretically it shouldn't form any of a problem, though, but practice has proven theory wrong many times before... ;p
Anyway, I hope that sufficed for now...

I guess its worth it, no point in holding on to the current version of bluestacks if the newer version fixes stuff, and god knows the current version im on has its bugs, so buggy it could make an exterminator go bonkers if i had to be precise.

Ah, so this is where Bluestacks stores all the Android data apps make and the apps themselves and their settings? Whenever i previously tried to root Bluestacks id save the entire \Bluestacks folder in ProgramData as a backup incase things went south, keeping it to just those two files should make things easier...

Weird, we're at like opposite spectrums of it lol, for me 0.7 worked but for you it didnt while with 0.8 it did for you but not me. I wonder if the folks over at Bluestacks made it as a way to prevent users that were previously using the Play Store since companies have to license being able to use Google Play..
