Sorry if this has been asked before i have searched all the past posts and found nothing.
Just rooted my Hero for the first time on to villianrom 3.4 and i find that the market will not let me look at just in apps in free only like it did on the 1.5 market version..
Does everyone have this problem, or is they a way around it please.
Used Market everyday but dont wannt look though the paid ones cause i dont have a credit card...
Please can you help
Marc
No body else have this problem then??
Yeah I noticed that too. Being a tightwad, I missed ability to only search free apps, and as far as I can tell, there is no work around but correct me if I am wrong!
I am using Villain 3.4 and have no issues with market. Am able to click "top free" and view only free apps or click "top paid" and view only paid apps. Works great!

It doesn't work great I'm afraid. Yes, you can use "Top Free" or "Top Paid", but what you can't do is a search and then filter only free or only paid (as you can in the 1.5 version of the Market).
Regards,
Dave
but if your searching then it shouldn't be too much of a problem as the results have been narrowed anyway
i just want to be able to view the free just in. nothing else really im interested in.

I didn't know you could that in 1.5. That is quite convenient.

So I got g1 last night and I love it, downloaded a few apps from market so I figured I would share recommendations for apps I have so far. First tmobile hot spot locater is a must. Also got myspace which is cool but not really needed. Wikimobile is awesome, a must have and any cut program allows you to place shortcuts on homescreen on just about anything on your phone, including battery. Which programs has everyone else found useful, recommend?

Would you recommend it over shopsavvy? Updated my first post as well, by the time I'm done my first post will take up the first page lol.
As far as the file manager its a good start but can't open most of the files which sucks.

Cool thanks gonna switch em out right now!
I didn't like the solitare interface. It was a forced landscape, and the card sizing is funky...not the cards themselves, but the symbols/numbers. They should've taken a cue from WinMo and made the hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades oversized so that they're more visible.
Am I being a numpty?
In the Twitter tab, I can't see a way of bringing up a list of who I'm following in Twitter.
Is it just me, or is it not actually there?
Ta.
Ha no I can't find that option either. So no, you're not alone
I just wanted to tweet @ somebody, and can't figure out how! Guess it's back to having a seperate app
Yeah same problem here. Although I'm a WM6.5 n00b so if you find a decent Twitter app that works well can you let me know what it is??
Cheers.

I was using Panoramic moTweets on my HD, and that was great. I tried a few others, and they're all pretty much the same, but I'd recommend that.
There's a free version with an add at the top of your tweets list, or a paid version that was only a few dollars.

I think it's now available on marketplace as well, but I'd never recommend that piece of poo until you can install on your storage card as standard!
I'll give it a whirl, great stuff, thanks.
Download it on marketplace. Everything works again
would anyone please share the cab?
claims to be 1.3 on the marketplace, installed states 1.1xxx ??
and you have to go to the yank marketplace to get it.

That was precisely his point - that the Android app is much better than the crappy WM one, and has been working with almost no issues where the WM one has been DOA for months

The inital 1st post states:
"Download it on marketplace. Everything works again"
Which i would assume is WM not android also as you can see by my other post 1.4 is avaliable now in the marketplace but not in the UK catalog.
I do agree the Android Facebook is better but whats wrong with wanting to try the new version for WM?

Odd my U.S catalog says 1.4
In fact it was not us but another market, i download it from french market, and it's the same as 1.4 from US, It's 1.3 in France and 1.4 for US English, but exactly the same version!

The screen shots of the 1.4 (U.S) looks different to our (UK) "1.2" version hence why i would like to have a look. Does your "1.3" (FR) look the same as U.S?
This is a real pain, why does it seem, US, France even outer mongolia have the update except the bloomin UK...
There is an update, although to 1.3 - it does at least work again though

I take it you don't have your market palce set to "United Kingdom - English". Because myself and a colleague only seem to be able to obtain "1.2" from market. Could you confirm for me please Nick.

Classic IT 101 - but have you tried logging out of the market and back in to see if that refreshes the list?
Have you noticed the new PC android market?
http://market.android.com/
Tell me your opinion!
I'm not sure I see the point, if all it does is use a qr code to direct your phone to the market to install the sofware.
It's a little bit stupid, for my opinion xD
agreed, useless....
from what I understand is you can set it t push automatically,I havny looked at it yet...

I think it's quite brilliant. If I'm in front of my computer anyways, I find it easier to use the web market to browse apps.

It uses over-the-air installing. Simply click Install on the web market, and it'll start installing on your phone automagically.
Can't see how another option is a bad thing
still no proper sorting option like best rated, latest, most downloaded etc...

What do you mean by that? Something like Amazon, or maybe something like AppBrain, AppAware, Android PIT, etc.?
Or maybe even black markets?

AFAIK the amazon market is not avaliable outside the US
At least, it's not avaliable in Germany
For me it´s Appbrain.
In the last couple of days appbrain is mostly down(the site and the sync in android).
They all have there pro's and cons,
Android market is good, only mainly ... install direct etc but no backups.
App brain can be a bit clunky .. but . does back up apps... again it installs from the Android market ..
The others?... not so good.
