By the way I think this transparent market is cleaner and nicer than the other transparent market but that's just my opinion.

It won't install through CWM but if you read my instructions I said to extract the Vending.apk and Place it in system/app but delete any market apk thats in that folder before you put the vending apk in the folder. Then reboot and it will work.
I attached screenshots to show it works. Repeat it will not install trough CMW on the Note.
Didn't work for me either. Removed phonesky app, extracted and moved vending app to system apps, rebooted......no play store in apps. Another bonus is when I tried to reverse everything my original play store fc's as soon as I open it.

I am not sure why its not working for you. If you extract the Vending.apk and rename it to Phonesky.apk it should work if you move it to system/app and reboot. It worked for me the first time I tried.

No your wrong. Vending.apk is for Gingerbread. This is a link to the last page of the thread that this came from and if you read it it will say you have to change it from Vending.apk to Phonesky.apk for it to work after rebooting on ICS. Before you say something you are totally wrong about you could have just googled "Phonesky.apk" and anywhere you look on any site about Vending.apk it will tell you to rename it to Phonesky.apk cause it is ICS standard. Yes its the same app but if you put Vending.apk in system/app it will mot work on ICS unless you change the name to Phonesky.apk.

This is not an app as you need all of the app for it to work. To get it to work, put the app in system/app foder using any root explorer that works, like androotfile. Then use astro to oull the lib from the apk, and then place the lib into system/lib. Then you need to go back to astro and remove the lib folder in the apk file. This method worked for me. Jumper test app opens but i cant get it to connect or sync. This was my method, hope you enjoy.

are you putting libjumper.so in /system/lib/ or in /system/lib/armeabi-v7a/ ?
EDIT:
works for me putting libjumper.so in /system/lib/ . FC on me if i start it up in portrait mode; weird. works and looks nice in landscape. some screens work in portrait, but not the library listings.
I'm not sure I needed to remove the /lib from the apk, but thanks nonetheless!
craby -- did you go to settings, accounts & sync, and check "Music"? i got it working on my Nexus One just to test, but i didn't try on the nook.

Hello all, I was hoping someone may have run into this and might could give me some feedback.
I have my phone rooted, and use Handcent for texting. I have no problems sending pictures......and up until recently, I've had no problems receiving pictures either. At first I thought it was just going to be iPhone users, but have since experienced the problem getting pics from various phones and carriers.
iPhone4 - Verizon
iPhone3 - AT&T
Samsung Eternity - AT&T
There are a few others as well. I have disabled the original messaging app, and only use Handcent. I've had no problems until the past couple of weeks. I am wondering if maybe it isn't an update issue from Handcent......I know it has manually updated a couple of times in the past few weeks.
Anyone have any suggestions?
What do you mean when you say you disabled the original app?
What ROM/kernel are you using?

Firmware 2.1update1
Kernel 2.6.29
I rooted simply to remove bloatware, I haven't changed to any of the different ROM's or anything.
I deleted MMS.apk. I wanted to try to reinstall it, to see if maybe one of the Handcent updates caused the problem somehow, after I deleted the MMS app......but I can't get it to install. I downloaded the MMS.apk on my desktop, and open it through MyFiles. I've done a few apps this way, no problem.
MMS.apk you have to push to /system/app
You cant install it like you would a normal apk.

You can install it with ESFile Explorer if you are rooted. You can find it on the market for free. You'll then need to find a mms.apk place it on your sdcard.. then using ESFile copy the apk and place it in system/apps/
Another option would be to download GeekSMS.. it runs on its on without the mms.apk. I've tried it and it worked fine for me.

What am I missing?
You're not supposed to try and install it. You move it into the /system/app and then it should show up in your app drawer.

i got it working but every time i try to update or download and app it FC on me and says the application market (proceess com. amdroid.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. please try agin
any help with this?
i clear data and cache but it still dose it
Is there a way to temporarily disable the market, or delete it, on a P7500 running 3.2 update? Tried deleting it through root explorer but it's there after a reboot and droidwall doesn't work either.
Have you tried to freeze it with Titanium?
I can only freeze it with donate version. I have the free one
delete the data for it, fc it, then delete vending.apk and market.apk (actually rename the .apk to .old or something...make sure you rename vending and market.

I don't think so... it could consult with Vending.apk about the license status, which would fail because there would be no account present. Removing it would prevent it from saying not authorized -- though the API for it might stop it anyway if it can't find the market.
