Can I run two versions of the same app on one phone?

No that's not possible.

What's the reason though?

I would think it would have to do with the app it self. For instance on windows I know if you change the extension on some files you can run duplicates. I think because you can't change that ( or know of a way) you can't run multiple applications.
Only very few apps can do this, such as OverSkreen (Floating Browser).

You can have two versions of the same app installed as long as the installed apks have different names but I don't think you can have both version running simultaneously.
I remember after installing an app update I downloaded from this forum having both the original and the updated apps on my phone though only the original version showed up in the app drawer. I had to manually uninstall the older version.

I've been trying to find the where app for a few days and can't locate it in the market. I removed the sim and it still didn't show up (that worked for a few other apps). Anybody have any idea what's up with Where?

What's the Where app?
I'm just taking a guess, but if you're looking for WhatsApp, it's here:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.whatsapp&feature=search_result
I had the same problem with my Atrix. The Where guys are awesome. They sent me the apk and then automatically sent updates every time one came out. Look them up and send them a note. It was one of the best app experiences I've had,

I was having problems joining threads while logged in. The app would force close. Did a little searching and read that installing Tapatalk Pro would fix the issue and it did for me.
Only problem Tapatalk I believe is $3.99, so I won't tell you where I got mine since I paid for XDA Premium and they didn't mention any required apps for it to work.

This is interesting, because i use the XDA premium app and have for quite some time without any issues such as what your stating.
No requirements on my end for running it anyway.
Sorry if I forgot to mention that I am running CM7 with the latest nightly 41. I've been having these problems since I bought the app about two months ago. I installed the Droid forums app and it work perfectly. The only difference I notice was a loginmod.XML file in the Res/layout folder that was lacking on the XDA APP.

That's interesting because my experience was just the opposite. The XDA app was full of FC's on Eclair and Froyo if you tried to search, log-in, or do just about anything other than browse. (This is a known issue and has been for some time, affecting XDA free and Pro.) However, upon installing CM7 nightly 41 it has worked perfectly.
TapaTalk Pro is not a prerequisite for the XDA app, so if you downloaded TapaTalk from a warez site you stole it. Plain and simple. If I were you, I'd uninstall TapaTalk and ask for help with the XDA app or I'd go purchase TapaTalk. Which would you rather sacrifice: the time it takes to troubleshoot or a few dollars?

Same problem for me: I have XDA App free and when I try to go to settings it FCs; same when I choose exit from extended menu...
I've never experienced problems on Nexus One with this app...
Does the latest version available from the market work for anyone else? I updated to the latest version and installed the latest dev version of CM7 and now it seems to work fine
Sent from my NookColor using XDA Premium App
I downloaded the latest version and get FCs every time I try to log in or go to settings. I guess I will try to reinstall to see if that changes anything. I'm using the free version and no where does it say you need to the paid taptalk. grrrrrrrrr
The FCs are because the NOOK doesn't have an IMEA (ie. Not a phone) and the free XDA App checks for one. You can either use the paid XDA App or install a modified framework.jar which spoofs an IMEA (which shouldn't be an issue since the NOOK doesn't have a cell radio). Swype beta also requires an IMEA, there is a thread khaled "just works" for Swype that tells how to modify r framework.jar.

You need to use a file manager with root access such as Root Explorer.
I got all that, double checking your suggestion from the other thread. Let you know if it works!

I paid for both XDA Developer Pro and Tapatalk - and I still get FCs just like the ones that others are describing. My NC is running Cyanogen Mod 7.0.0-RC4.
Hi i was wondering if there's a way to change the default app of a rom. For example, i use go launcher ex, boat browser, go sms pro ecc, is it possible to make those apps the dafault ones? Taking out the stock ones, and using those as stock?
When you choose one app, it ask if you want use it as default....
Thanks... I knew it! But everytime i reboot the nexus, i have to choose again all the preferences!
I meant, is It possible to substitue the default apps, with the ones i use?

I think what is being asked is,
can a ROM be unpacked, delete the apps you don't want and replace them with your own.
At least that's what I think is meant
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Yes, That could be an answer! Or i don't know, is It possible via terminal, adb... Sadly i'm not a dev, and i don't know as much as i would!
Anyway... Yes! Is It possible to unpack a rom and replace the apps with the ones i want?

You can just open a rom zip and delete the apps the from /system/app/ directory.
Alternatively, you can download titanium backup from the market. This app allows you to backup or uninstall apps.
Does anyone know how to "full" market on the optimus v? Many apps are not available for the optimus v and you cannot rent movies from the phone, (but I did get the Google videos app). I want to know if I can get the market as it is on a galaxy nexus or galaxy s 2. Any ideas?
-Thanks!

I dont know if it works out for you too. I had installed AppBrain App market and from there make a search for the desired app and click install. It will open up the respective applications' page in the Android Market and there the download and install button is available.
be thankful that market shows you only supported apps.on applanet for example you don't know what supports ur phone and what doesn't so you gotta try them all and at some point you get bored,especially when you're not that lucky.Download apps/games from rusian website,they ported lots of game and unsupported stuff for o1.
Ill try the things suggested, just for clarification I mean I would like to see ALL apps, like if you go to market.android.com
EDIT: none of them have worked, I'm not really sure how to use market enabler, I ran it, allowed super user and picked a carier market but nothing was different.

why would android only make some items available through mobile? strange.
Run the "market fix" from chainfire 3d pro.apk (rooted phones only) then u will be able to see many more games in market.

I'm running CyanogenMod 11, and I wanted to remove the stock camera, I found alot of links on google to do it through Terminal Emulator but It never works. also I want to replace it with the camera from the stock rom, and if I try to install that the app never installs properly. Any help would be appreciated.

You won't get a Sense camera to work on a non-sense ROM, just doesn't work, so you won't get the stock Rezound camera to work on CM.
If you like a different camera app, just install it, and if you REALLY want it in the system, use something like Ultimate Backup or Titanium Backup to make it a system file, and associate camera with it. You could also remove the stock camera app if you want, but why?
I don't like the redundancy, and it saves space on the the device. Its frozen for now but I'd rather exercise my android more than that.

Fair enough... You can remove a system app with either of the two programs I mentioned above as well.
