Because Play IS the new market

No , as in I try launching Market from Espier Launcher after the update , they say "Application is not installed on your phone"
Then upon restart the Market disappears altogether .
I am on Espylon3's CM7 nightly + Dual-booting CM9
I tried manually installing to no avail

Thank you. In my opinion the Play better then Market.
Google Play should be a name for a gaming tablet.
Google Play Store should be an app store.
So, Google's new names suck.

Sorry about late reply, you have probably sorted it out already. But anyway if someone else lands here an reads, then this Play is a different app, it isn't simply an update to the same old market app. So old shortcuts won't work, delete them and make a new one.
Same reason the Market button on the default launcher on some newer (GB) stock Motorola phones doesn't work. Read some articles about it on the internet...

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.

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)

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.

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!

I opened market earlier today and it gave me the Terms and Conditions prompt again, but this time for Google Play. But no update on the market app itself. I wonder if they start pushing it to my region, would I need to go back to stock to get it?

I've downloaded the .apk from androidcommunity.com whose filename is vending-2 for some reason. Anyway, I have attached it, but personally haven't installed it & probably won't do until I get a better idea of how it functions with a 2G connection.

Sucks. But I can download free apps and updates of my paid apps.

yes, i cant deny this, im also having same problem, but only when i try to update all my app (already installed app), it said 'starting download' and nothing. then i try updating it 1 by 1, and its work..did you have 3.4.7?if you already have this version and the problem not fixed, maybe you can go 'clear cache' of google play in manage application..
Thx for the APK. The new market is super fast now! I replaced Market 2.3.6. I kinda had to shoehorn this APK into my Froyo Bumblebee v2.4 ROM on LG VM670 since it didn't want to sideload properly.
-Use Titanium Backup to Backup your version of Market then uninstall Market 2.3.6
-rename the Google Play APK to vending.apk
-use RootExplorer to mount / as r/w
-copy the new vending.apk to /system/apps
-change permission to rw-r-r--
-reboot phone
The new Google Play APP icon didn't change (could be the Glow Legacy Theme I use with ADW), it stayed the same as the original Market Icon but the new market works.
NOt full version
I have this version of the market I can download only apps because the other tabs/option are not present on x10 mini.

it fixed the compatible check, thats mean, you can download loads of apps, but for our devices, which is in qvga, not all apps will ok when running.
auto updates now working for me, need to update it one by one..
Not working here. Still doesn't appear country restricted apps like Play Music (Google Music).
I'm outside US/Canada and I wish someone can mod Play Store so we (outside) can browse music, books and video stuff.
I can do this but I need to start WiFi hotspot on my laptop, through Hotspot Shield, clear Play Store data, and then access to full market.
Will be possible to mod this restrition?
Still not auto updated! So better do it manually.
No UI changes at all, only minor bug fixes and stability improvement.
