Did anyone else's market update to play store.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Yep its being pushed out as of today.

yeah wtf is this crap? The icon looks like someone took a dump on my home screen.
edit: actually it isn't that bad but the name is bad. Android Store or Google Store would have been better
Personally I think that Sony is going to take issue with it since it is so close to Playstation Store.

Agreed the icon is horrid. I hope someone makes a blue or blacked out version. Wonder why google chose the name play for the market and music app?
Guess mine hasn't updated yet. Still have the old Icon

I'm just mad that now Google music has changed to "Play Music" in my app drawer. Threw me all out of whack. And the new icons are not appealing, I agree.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Lots of bad feedback on the icons and name change on most of the forums. I bet google changes it eventually.
Why is Need for Speed not compatible with our phones again? I have the demo version on my stock Rezound...makes zero sense. For that matter why are so many games not Rezound supported? Yet they are compatible with my Mytouch 4G that I no longer own?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
awful, AWFUL name. seriously, these "marketing geniuses" are a bunch of idiots. why didn't they just rename it to Google Market and be done with it? Google Play? what the hell is that? some 12 year olds toy? market is much more of a mature sounding name.
i'd hate to tell my customers, "oh sign up for google now so you can get into Google Play!"
no.

i heard it's a screen resolution issue,
Are there no other phones with the same resolution/screen size on the market? I'm extremely disappointed at the support our phone receives. Does the Vivid have poor support too?

There aren't too many phones on the market with a 720p screen if I'm thinking correctly.

Love the phone, don't get me wrong but does it feel to anyone else like we're kinda overlooked in general. The hype was huge but it feels like when I got my myTouch 3G Slide. The hardware was wonderful and was pretty solid. Then the Vibrant was released 2 weeks later. The Slide got overshadowed and forgotten. Did they ever get an official 2.2 update?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Just got my update 10 mins ago. Name definitely sounds dumb and so is the icon.
I got the new version and the first thing I did was change the icon and remove the label. Now it's like old days. Ahhh, yesterday.

The new Android Market will be rolling out in the coming weeks to Android 2.2 and higher phones around the world. You don’t need to do anything - the update is automatic on supported phones. If you’re in the U.S., you’ll also be able to download the Videos app, rent movies, and buy books once you receive the new Android Market.

Stupid part is we at T-mobile are "forbid" to call it the Marketplace. We got an email trickled down from the powers that be. Rediculous LOL
Really??? Who cares what it's called??
yeah....google play...lol...its more like google pay
google's moto: if its not broken lets fix it!
"market ? Oh that name makes way to much sense, lets call it something else so people dont think they are at the 'market' spending money. Lets get them to spend money by making them think its just for fun!" ,
I like what the one exec said leaving google:
when I started, google was a technology company...when I left they were an advertising company...
google, apple or microsoft.... whats your poison?
on another note this should probably be moved to general

Anybody here played Max Payne yet? Seen some gameplay on Youtube and looked pretty good so was thinking of trying it out. Just wanted to see if anybody had any insight. Thanks
Not too far into it yet but so far its one of the best I've played on android device. The controls are good and graphics are nice too. When I bought it it was $3--TOTALLY worth it.

Yeah I get the same thing but still its an awesome game.
Has anyone been able to pair with a Wiimote? I don't see any options for it but the description says some Bluetooth wireless pads supported.
I emailed Google and rockstar about it being removed from market with this phone. **** them I flipped out, bad, really bad. I'm sick of just being one of the lucky ones that bought the game early. I purposely checked my phone every hr in the middle of the night when it got released. Only because when Gta 3 came out I had the eVo 3d than and if I didn't get Gta 3 within the first 12 hrs of it coming out I wouldn't have been able to get it at all unless I did a Lil search and downloaded a pirated copy. Now I have no problem downloading what I want when I want. Don't care about Warez, don't ****in care at all. I don't do it on xda nor will I ever. But I have no problem downloading something that I can't purchase cause I'm simply denied. Snes ROms, and playstation and all that, I don't consider that stealing at all cause the roms are not available for download for use in emulators. If they were I would buy them to support the devs, like I am more than happy to support rockstar. But if Google or Sony or rockstar or any other digital/electronic company try to **** me like this, I'll just **** you right back.
Well anyways sorry for the rant but the point is I let both companies know this is ridiculous. The game runs flawlessly on this phone with the graphics maxed out, no reason to deny us. I wont send U my apk, so don't ask, but just Google it. **** them, they are practically asking you to steal it but not making it available for no reason. I paid for my ****, so when their is an update for Max Payne and I can't update for this same reason, I'll be doing be doing same thing and googling it.

...Learn. You don't have to be tech savy to change the build.prop. If you actually went into the thread it tells you step by step to do it. My baby cousin that's 4 years old can do that. Quit *****ing and man the **** up

I have been playing that game for about a week now,the graphics are amazing on the lte,seems like 50-60fps.although I do get the usuall static when in the cut scenes,at first I thought I blew my brand spankin New lte speaker. The gameplay is actually addicting for me anyways.
I downloaded max payne and i hate the game the graphics are horrible i suggest if you like that style of game download gamelot 9mm ,it's almost the same concept but with better controls and graphics plus the story ain't that bad either.
Sent from my EVO using XDA Premium App
Lol, I know all about these phones and I live on xda basically. And yeah ya do have to be tech savvy to do all this. It's actually a lot of work to keep up with how fast things move on xdaand with these phones. I have no problem changing the build prop, but expecting normal people to is ridiculous. Trust me my cousin isn't stupid, but he also isn't a dork. Normal people barely know their way around a file explorer. The majority of the public still don't even understand how to get music on their phone. I know I know, I too think it is retardedly easy to copy n paste music but look at all the stupid questions noobs ask on xda. Pretty much every stupid question I see on here I restrain myself from typing please learn how to ****in search n read.
And don't come at me like I'm one of these tarts, I'm just sticking up for some of the less tech savvy. I wasn't flipping out on anyone here. I let the appropriate parties aware that it is a joke to keep blocking devices after people have paid their own money for said app and that it runs perfectly fine.
And this game runs great, especially with a ps3 controller.

You all know that douche Dallasskater. He is NOT my friend and never will be. I created an account to prove everything. He was telling everyone that I modified my rez extremely. Which I did but not that drastic. Then he started making it sounding like it was fake and made a poorly Photoshopped benchmark which looked bad.
All I did was make it slcd to slcd 2, upgraded to S4 1.7gh. No I did not upgrade the battery. I just saw a slim battery on amazon which was 1950mh and was for Rez so I bought it. No I did not install imagesense chip which I think he said I did. Mainly SLCD2 and S4 Chip. Also upgraded 2 Gig ram.
REAL Benchmark screenshot
I dont know what else to show you to prove. I can show whatever you want to prove I did except open up the phone. I had a hard time unscrewing the device the time I did because the grooves on the screws are bad and don't want to ruin them anymore.
this sounds even more fake than the other............

fine I kind of figured no one would believe me. So I guess I wont be showing you how I did it then will I. Oh yea I forgot to tell you I work for HTC and I'm really not suppose to show you this or tell you about this. I suggested about a Rezound HD and showed it to rest of HTC but they decided not to and went to the One X+ because the original One X got more sales. I got to keep the prototype since I modded it.
I have a PhenomII X6, 26GB of RAM, the new LG Nexus motherboard and screen INSIDE my Rezound, and it transforms into the new 2013 Porsche Cayman. Also, because Android still sucks even the newest Jelly Bean, I installed iOS6.5 (The new developer beta version of iOS7, unreleased. I actually got this straight from an inside source inside of Apple
I am willing to prove it too, just tell me what you want to see, except for actual pictures. That isn't possible anymore because the phone is also now invisible, after I installed an invisibility cloak casing. Seriously though, I really did these mods. I'm super cool and you guys should all like me.

But why call it a Rezound HD? Working for HTC, you should already know that the Rezound, in fact, has an HD screen already. Does this one you made have beats audio? If not, it's an obvious downgrade.
