Amazon MP3 apk from Nexus Froyo

Not sure if this has been previously posted or if its just a regular app now, but I saw it in the new signed rom and it works on the incredible.. I will update if i find anything else that looks updated.
Its taken from this: http://android.clients.google.com/packages/passion/signed-passion-ota-42745.dc39ca1f.zip

Thanks for posting this. I had v1.1.1. Downloaded the free music and am listening to it right now.
HTC Incredible (Stock)

Can I ask how are you downloading the music for free? When I select a song I'm prompted to log-in and when I do so, it asks me to set up the 1-click payment.
EDIT: Nevermind, I see that the full discount was applied. However, I'm getting a lot of network errors when I know I'm connected. anyone else seeing this? Thanks in advance.

I seem to be getting errors too. I am on 3G. It reads:
"Failed due to network error. Retry when you are in a mobile network or Wi-Fi coverage area; roaming downloads are not supported."
I hit ok and it continues. I tried another free song and it downloads.
Shazam also does not recognize the app. It prompts me to go to the website when I hit the Amazon MP3 button.

I haven't gone so far as downloading the music but I do get the errors when searching sometimes. Seems like it might want really good signal for some reason because when I went into town it started working.

I haven't had any problems so far, been using it on both wifi and network and downloaded a full album (free one)

That's an issue with Shazam. It defaults to taking you to the website. I found it a little odd on my Droid and have seen that it's also the case on my Incredible. Contact the developers and ask for it to be added as a feature.

I emailed them I will let you know what they say.

How many free downloads does it give?

The ones I downloaded are the free song of the day.
I know there are more free songs. If you search you will find them.

I was using your apk for a few days now, but I just noticed that they finally added it to the market on the Incredible. So we don't have to go hunting for the most updated apks anymore. I'm liking version 1.7, it doesn't force close on me anymore.

This the answer I got from Shazam Support.
"Hi there
From talking to our Android development team about this issue; they’ve informed me that the fault actually lies with the Amazon application, not Shazam. We’re hoping that the Amazon application is updated soon to restore the previous level of functionality with Shazam.
Updates to the Android Shazam application are also due soon - You will be notified in-app when these updates are ready to download. I’m afraid I don’t currently have an exact date for release."
I installed the Amazon MP3 from the market and now Shazam sees it.

This app is in the market now.

I updated to 2.2 and this Amazon mp3 crap is on there and wont uninstall through normal means (same with Wave secure) How do you uninstall these *locked* apps? I thought being able to remove this crud was the whole point of rooting the device? :s

Market Issues?

Just bought my Fascinate a couple days ago. This phone is sick, but my Market is spazzing out. When I signed into my Gmail account my apps didn't automatically restore like they're supposed to. I also only have tabs for Free and Just In, nothing for Paid and overall everything on it (the Market) runs very slow. I tried a factory reset to no avail, so I'm a little lost now...any ideas?

I believe the auto restore feature is a 2.2 feature. The other tabs you're used to seeing might be from 2.2 as well. We're running 2.1.

I actually had the same issue on mine while my wifes was fine. I just basically done a battery pull and when it came back up it was fine.

No, I know it's not because it's android 2.1. I had the droid before the fascinate which had 2.1 and it definitely had a tab for paid apps. That's not normal no matter what version of android it is. There's also the fact that it runs extremely slow that I can't figure out. It literally can take up to a minute to open an app page. =P

Run wifi while on market there has been some hiccups on vzw network the last few days and while in the market hit menu and then downloads. That will show all of ur paid apps
they call me...kick ass

I've been at work the past couple of days and we've got a WiFi connection that I use w/ my phone. It doesn't make a difference afaik. And I know my paid apps show up in my Downloads, but what I'm saying is if you go into Market, and pick an app category, there are only buttons for Top Free and Just In. There is nothing for Top Paid.

I had the same problem with mine when I had it. Just download one of your already purchased paid apps and it will fix the market issue

Didn't work. =[
Interesting twist, though. I reset my phone again and signed into a different Gmail account that doesn't have all my apps on it including purchased ones and it worked perfectly. Anyone have any idea why that may be, or would i be better off consulting Google on that one?

Android Market Problems

Anyone having problems with the Market? Able to download apps but they will not install, been doing it since yesterday evening. Don't think its the ROM i am using, but I just want to check with everyone else. Thanks

I had an update to titanium backup hang during installation this morning, but I cancelled and restarted and it was fine. No problems installing other apps, it should be working fine.

Been having the same issue. Just let it be and it will eventually install/download.

I've been having this problem for a while - a download will hang, and I'll have to cancel and restart it. I usually don't have a problem with the installation.

Same for me too... market hangs on download and install...

Mine finally allowed me to update and begin some installs. Hope everyone elses works out too.

Same problem using the stock rom, switched to zippe's DesireHD rom and had no problems with the market.

Yah I had the same issue as well and it happens on multiple roms.
I used to be able to fix it by logging into Google talk app but I have issues signing into that sometimes as well.

Yeah, been having major issues since last night. Made a thread in Q&A about it. I've been having the hanging downloads for a while, but used to be able to restart them, or at worst restart the phone and they would work. Last night, even a factory reset wasn't working. Then they started working for no good reason at all. Now the problem is that 4 apps refuse to install. They are Google Sky Map, MiniSquadron!, Frozen Bubble Breaker, and Frozen Bubble Breaker Editor. These all fail to install with Unknown Error -18. Really annoying since I just bought MiniSquadron and Google Sky Map is one of my favorite apps. I hope that these market issues get fixed soon.

I also notice that some apps from the market won't install on certain roms..... like I couldn't update Google streetview on ava Rom 9.... but I was able to install Google sky map just now....
Maybe u want to try a different rom to see if that solves the issue of not being to install certain apps from the android market.

[Q] New Market and FC

Hello!
New Market on motorola Xoom Wi-fi every time I want to upgrade giving me FC. I don't know how to fix it. Tried to delete upgrade install on the Application but it is upgrading by itself. Tried to clear the cash, clear data.
Nothing helps.
Please, who know how to fix this problem? Looks like new Market doesn't work on Honeycomb.
Guys, help me, please? I really need your advice?
Thank you!

What market version do you have?
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

If you have Documents to Go installed, remove it. It has a problem with the manifest and Dataviz needs to update it, you can use the version from their website in the interim.
Or grab today's free Amazon Apps, Quick Office and Quick Office HD.

Tried everything. Market. 3.1.6, market 3.3.1.1 or something like that, all of them giving me fc.
Guys, please, I need a solution. Can somebody give some advice, please? Or maybe somebody have old mafket app flashable trough cwm? Because google doing nothing for honeycomb.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

The problem is almost certainly related to an installed app, if you don't have Documents to Go installed, started removing apps one at a time until the market begins working properly and report back when you identify the offending app.

I had a thread for the same thing a page or so back.
documents to go didnt seem to cause me much grief (but i removed it anyway), but i did have a problem with Enhanced Email FCing the market (which i also ended up removing on the xoom, working fine on the desire).
noticed my market updated itself to 3.3.1.1 (or similar) the other night too - same problems as the last version.
just waiting for ICS update now and will see if that fixes stuff - I imagine it will and/or devs will update their apps to ICS

Do you have apps that you side loaded that the market reported as not compatible? I get the market FC any time one of my side loaded apps tries to update.

I found that it was a certain alternative market that caused me to "loose" all of my apps... I thought that it was the new market and even went back to the moray 2.2.1 to have the old market.
I figured out it was that other market because I uninstalled it and bingo, I had my apps...
I was pretty stupid and used titanium backup to "force" the market links and ended up with one heck of a messed up android market.... Now I am working through that..

Uninstalled the app called "Download all files" and sims like everything working for now.
Thank you very much!

actually i think i had getjar on there... that's missing from the supermarché now - I wonder if that was the issue
i was also guessing that by the time ICS hits the xoom - and all the devs update their apps for that most of this issue should go away

FWIW, I had the exact same problem I uninstalled Enhanced Email and the problem went away. Too bad, I really like Enhanced Email!

New Market Music Section...Wont Work

Every time I try to download something it gives me an error saying it was unable to retrieve data from the database...or something of the sorts.
Anyone else having issues?

I take it you're in the US?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA Premium App

Yeah, US.
Tried clearing data, rebooting, etc.

I think it's because they're still rolling it out. I can't even see the music section yet. You can use the web market for now, it works perfectly

Mm, would make sense. Yeah, it loads but says it cannot retrieve the data from the server.
Thanks for the heads up, I'll try the web version.

Everything I'm reading is that v3.3.11 is the version with music, but I have that version on both my Nexus One and OG Galaxy Tab and music is still not showing. Will it just show up eventually?

For me, I was at the movies last night and during the previews I saw on Facebook that Android posted that Music was live on the market. I opened up the market and it made me accept terms again like I just flashed a new ROM and when it was finished loading, I had a music tab.

So as an experiment, I went into settings/applications/manage/all and uninstalled all updates to the market, then went and opened the market, it asked about terms, accepted, then it showed an older market(2.3.4), backed out, loaded market again and it was the new market (3.3.11) and it's still not showing music.
It may still take some time for it to roll out, so I'll just wait some more.

I received an email from google about the new store/music app. In the email it said that they are rolling everything out over the next few days. The new app is available, but the store is gonna be a few more days.

Both my N1 and my OG Galaxy Tab have since started showing music now.
I was trying to help my parents stock EVO 4G's show music though, but their phones are still on Market 2.3.4 and I can't get them to update.

It's working for me

I just cleared data on my market, and the music tile showed up. Downloaded Busta's free song with no problems. Good luck.......

T-Mobile did a red carpet event today to officially announce the Music section, so it may be up now. I haven't checked, but I'll do so now..
EDIT-
Nope, still no luck. Using MIUI ROM, if that matters.

On CM7 kang and had to clear market data and uninstall updates for it to start working.
