The new market will give FC's and stop you from DL'ing apps from the market. The new market from T-Mo has a new tab and isnt compat with any custom rom using test keys.
Care to cite a source for us?
Edit:
As of the... shoot what is it? The second newest CM (The other one seems to have a bad zip file uploaded D: as 3 downloads of the file with identical sizes, none of them are valid/complete) I can still download, update, and run apps from the marketplace. :3 (1:25 AM PST 12/6/09)
this sucks but i dont think it would affect the canadian users.
Had no problem downloading anything on my phone. The only inconvenience really was that it removed the custom Market Icon as well as the Downloads tab and replaced it with a T-Mobile tab. There was another small nuisance where old app that I have backed up and had installed using an app manager are now showing up as having an update available (I have them backed up and install them manually because updates have crippled the app, so I obviously don't want the update).
There is a very simple way to revert back to the old market. Menu>Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Market>Uninstall Updates.
Note, your old apps will still show up as having updates available, if you have installed backups from your sd card. Uninstalling, rebooting, and reinstalling did not work for me.
I have g1 with cyanogen 4.2.8 and run partioned sd card for my apps. I just went to the market after reading this and had 5 updated apps. updated and installed all with no problems.
Will have to admit that I am not clear what the orginial post was about or what he is actually trying to say. My understanding is that tmobile is trying to go after the rooted phones out there?

Nope... I'm on Dwang's v1.13 and got the update. No issues with downloading apps. T-mobile isn't trying to mess with rooted phones...just pushing T-mo specific stuff to our phones to "add value" to our Market experiences. I think Verizon does similar stuff on the Eris and Droid.
I am unable to install after the update, it will download, then force close upon installation attempt. I have to remove the update (setting, manage applications) each time I want to download from the market. Yes, it keeps updating on its own after each uninstall.
Nope, T-Mobile is not going after rooted phones. The new market update allows you to get paid apps and have them billed to your phone bill, rather then using Google Check Out. I think Sprint and Verizon are doing the same thing as well, but T-Mobile was the first to implement.

Since uninstalling the update using the method I posted, the Market update has not been reappied by T-Mobile. I think you might have other problems.

I don't think Mlign's Hero rom will get it since it's a 1.5 firmware... but I may be wrong.
I'm saying that because I haven't had a map update yet with the nav option.
I've had Market 1660 since it leaked about a week ago.
The only new tab that I notice is the one that says T-Mobile where it used to say Downloads.
Those that are gettinc FC's should try to get a logcat and maybe try clearing their cache. If that doesn't work then do a backup using nandroid then try pulling the /system/app/Vending.apk file, resign it and then push it back and see if it works then. That may be the reseason why mine works and none of yours do because I've included the newer version in my CHM Theme. However I don't have the alternate form of payment (onto the T-Mobile bill) as of yet. I just bought something domestic ($.99) and the only option that I had through Google Checkout was credit card. Those that have the new market (1660)... do you have any other payment options?

I'm wondering if it's something that T-Mobile has to activate themselves?
And I don't think that CM is going to do anything because of the C&D that he recieved after he released the 1.6 Market prematurely onto 1.5 devices.

probably though i dont know why theyre being so quiet about it, i would think if it comes to messing with your money they would at least make sure everyone knows so they dont accidentally do buy something then see it on there bill(it could happen! lol)
and i was hoping maybe cm would suggest like a work around or a solution. well, i dont really need the new market.. dont like the new category(there suggestions suck) and i actually like the google checkout! do you think there are any side effects from uninstalling the new market?

dude! i totally forgot, its gotta be metamorph. because i remember my market worked and all, then right before going to bed i messed with a bunch of metamorph mods(not themes) and then today i try the market and boom doesnt work..

you wouldn't have done a nandroid backup pre-morph, did you?
If so then restore and see if the market updates later.
Hi,
I'm at the end of my patience here. I've had all 3 of these roms installed, and they all work great, except that google earth NEVER shows up in the market. I found a google_earth.apk, and Installed it from ES File Manager, and it works except when I try to clear the cache, or change any of the layers. And on the first attempt it crashes but 2nd or more, it will work if no settings are changed. I've already tried to fix permissions in clockwork but to no avail. Any suggestions?
From what I've read by searching Google, I think Google actually removed this from the market for some reason.
EDIT: Either that or they've changed it to 2.2 and above only. Haven't used 2.2 yet so I'm not sure if its there or not.
well then I guess I should be happy with what works??? lol! But if anyone wants the file, here it is. See what you can do with it.

I'm on the 2.2 Beta and its in the market for me. so if you really can't locate it in the market then i would assume you are right in that its only for froyo now. in which case you can probably install an earlier version of google earth and run it without any problems. i'lll see if i can find one in one of my old backups somewhere if you would like.
I would really appreciate that!

I doubt that would work, since you have to connect to google servers to run the program and they force you to use the most current version.
Worst case scenario you will get it when the official 2.2 is out, won't be long.
randomly now it works without any problems. strange.
Probably put it 2.2 only for the size. I still have ir installed on 2.1 and it works fine, I can pull the apk later and pay it If anyone wants it.

My Blockbuster app loads well, shows the movies I've rented, but returns the error code 0xc00d2713 in a white box when I try to download any of the rented movies. I have...
*Deactivated my TMOUS HD2, soft reset and reactivated it.
*Uninstalled the Blockbuster app, soft reset and reinstalled it.
*Reset my modem and router (just incase).
Can anyone figure this out? The only help T-Mobile had was trade for like new or new phone. I've taken loving care of my HD2 and I don't want someone else's problems.
Has anyone any idea what could cause this or am I once again doomed to the hard reset?
After looking, that error seems to be related to DRM.

Sorry, don't play with fire . But, yes, once you rent the movie you are suppose to be able to download it and play it. Have any ideas how to fix it? The app works if I do a hard reset; however, once I restore with Sprite backup, it will not download. The tmobile My Account "will be downloading soon" forever, too; although, I've fixed that problem.

Bizarre.
If it works after a hard reset, but stops after a restore with Sprite Backup, then it sounds like another app is conflicting with it. I was all for going with the DRM theory before, as mentioned by rr5678, but I'm not so convinced now.
I don't know how you could figure out what's causing the problem other than to re-install the apps manually, 1-by-1, and check after each install if you can still download. Obviously once you can't then you've found the problem.
That's not really a helpful suggestion though, if you've got a shed-load of apps to go through.
It's a bit of a clutch at straws, but I think having a thread here is the best thing, and to hope that someone with the same experience and a solution turns up.
Sorry to be so vague, but that's all I've got!
Hope you get it sorted.
Thanks, I've got over 60 apps (down from 100)! Soooo please don't make me reinstall them! I set aside days for ROM upgrades. Strangely, this thread shows how I solved the Tmobile My Account problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880250 and the problems seem to be related.

Edit: Just out of curiosity, have you flashed a custom ROM since you got your phone, or is it still an official TMO one?
Okay. I too Googled, and all I could find were references to Windows running on PCs. With that in mind, I REALLY don't know if this is relevant, but I do know enough about the WinMo OS to suspect it may help. If you're happy with registry editing, have a look at post No.2 on this page...

I'm not convinced that you'll find that key in the registry for WM, but maybe you will. It's worth a look.

I was 50/50 as to whether it would exist or not. Windows CE is VERY similar to the PC based Windows OS, so it was worth checking. As I know you've seen, there's nothing coming back from Google with regards to this error on WM.
I'm definitely done here now. As I said before, I hope you do get a solution though.
Good luck
I loaded up EB13 last night and had no issues until I started downloading my apps. I have Slingplayer that I purchased to watch my Slingbox on my phone while on the go. If I search the Market it is missing. At first I thought it was something with paid apps, but I noticed my other bought apps were listed. I also noticed Ringlert was not listed in the market...a free app.
If I login into the Market on a PC web browser I can find those apps with no issues. But it says I have them installed on my phone already. Umm..no I don't!
Anyone else having issues like this?
There seem to be some people, myself included, that are having issues with protected apps. I noticed that NYTimes is not showing up and neither is TMZ. I need to try a clean install and see if I still have the problem, I cannot tell if this issue is happening after a data restore from CMW, or if its a real bug. Did you do any data restore?
The problem is the market does not recognize this release as a legitimate. It will take a few days before it does. There is a fix you can apply if you search for it in the device section.

Kinda figured something like that... think that's the i9000 fingerprint fix or something like that.
Also, try to contact the developer of the app. They might be able to change something that might make it work.
Just for the Record, I'm having the same problem as well. I Installed the EB13 and Slingplayer isn't listed in the Market, I'll wait a few days to see what happens. Hopefully it's back in there cause I really don't feel like screwing around with crap.

Slingplayer still missing. Missing on another phone that isn't rooted. He refuses to root his phone.
Clearing the cache won't help with this problem. It's on Google's side.
If you are rooted, you can always backup the apk file while on the old 2.1 or DK28 build when it showed up in the market, then reinstall by hand after loading EB13
This is now resolved for me.

Does not need root access, you can remove .apks with it if you have root access, but it lets you disable without.
Download the Debloater tool, turn Debugging on, plug your phone in, start the program.
I just disabled LG Health on my Verizon phone with it. I would like to disable VoiceMate but I'm not sure what the .apk is. My apologizes if this is already known to work on the G4; I haven't seen it mentioned in the G4 forums, but I can confirm it does work.
Maybe someone can use this tool and compile a list of apps that are safe to disable using it.

No problem but be sure to add DTIgnite to the list, I missed that one. You will probably be better off uninstalling the DTIgnite update and disabling it from the app manager. That's the worst bloatware/spyware I've seen them preinstall. It's terrible.

I had to install the Verizon software assistant when you first plug the phone in to the PC. After that the debloat tool recognized it. Also make sure you have USB debugging enabled on the phone.
Dang I was all excited until I realized I needed a Windows box. Guess I'll have to wait to get home and dig out my old laptop to do this.
I have to figure out how to install the drivers on a mac. I know it is possible. this debloater works on a mac as there is a .dmg file for it. I can not use the verizon software assistant because it only works on a pc. Thank you for your help though.
I feel stupid asking this but I can't get my adb drivers to work with my g4.

Can you not create a virtual machine with either Apple OS or Linux (or even run in Wine if you are using Linux)?
I can but its easier just to go home and use a windows laptop.
