Market missing apps after Froyo?? - EVO 4G General

Some of the apps I had before the upgrade are not in there. I did the settings/apps/market, clear data/cache. They still don't appear. Could it be that app is not supported on 2.2?
For instance...
Paypal
Redbox (I searched redboxer to find in 2.1)
File Cover (for the lite version)

Those are copy-protected files and virtually every time we get an update, it takes about a week for them to come back. Google has to add our new version number to the Market database before copy protected apps come back. Hopefully, Sprint or HTC is already on top of this and by the time the update is officially OTA, Google will have it up and running. Until then, you'll just have to live with the other apps that aren't affected. Good news is, Google is moving away from copy-protection and is going to offer a licensing service instead, which should fix this issue.

Thanks for replying and explaining. Makes sense and I can wait.

Yeah no problem. I have ten apps and about half are paid that aren't showing up. I'm very anxious to get this fixed. Everything else in Froyo is amazing, so once this gets fixed, I'll be very happy!

Purchasing apps on the market outside of "authorized" areas

strazzere said:
Just a heads up that later on tomorrow an application will be released to help people outside of "authorized" areas purchase applications for the G1 on the market. More information can be found at http://strazzere.com/blog/?p=249 or the italian version at http://www.androidiani.com/applicazioni/applicazioni-a-pagamento-sul-market-da-ora-si-puo-2169.
Basically it ended up being easier than we originally thought, though Andrea threw together an application to make it easier for people to do.
The program should be released early tomorrow with the source and an explanation of how it works and what not.
Enjoy! Ciao!

I think is interesting for everyone here
Bye Andrea
bump!
i've installed the app and its working!!
but i don't have a billing address in US...
its now working!!
market apps available on ADP1.5 outside US
the app can be found here, look for the link "QUI"
http://www.androidiani.com/applicaz...he-in-italia-con-marketenabler-2177#more-2177
you might need to make a google checkout account from your computer if you are not in one of the market enabled countries... use the same gmail account
I wonder what Google thinks of this...
It works perfect, to bad google only works with creditcards :S ?
winbet this app enable only the purchasing process. We did not made nothing bad...

got the app- pity for some reason superuser doesnt want to play with it- funny cos SU plys ok with everything else....eg. advanced task manager etc.... am running 1.5 ADPHr1
is superuser not playing nice with it?
i use JF 1.5, i have to say allow a million times, but it works!
Amazing job!
Well I just want to thank the team that made this possible, it works just perfect on my JF 1.5 ADP, bought a few apps already!!!
Cheers
I'm pleased that you are happy of our work
Yes, thanks very much Andrea and Tim!
my SU is working ok with it now- for some reason it was hanging up- so i opened SU before opening this app..... i now have paid apps in Australia!!
Any requirements to install this program?
I cant seem to install it, keep getting " the install is unsuccessful" error.
Works GREAT!
It really works! Thank you so much. I felt disappointed when I learned google was not allowing ADP1 users to even see the non-free applications. Now I can see everything. I haven't tried to buy anything yet. I'm in Spain and we are not supposed to have paid applications, so I don't want to rise any suspicions.
Edit 1:
If you want to see the apps, you have to run the enabler and then (immediately after) go to the market. Or, to put it in a different way, it only allows this access for a (very) limited amount of time.
Edit 2:
I was finally able to see a free but protected app (NBA Game Time) from my ADP1, and it downloaded and installed successfully, but it doesn't run at all (force closes every time). If it's of any help, I'm running JF 1.5 on an ADP1.
I'm using JF 1.5ADP with no further mods (apps2sd etc.) and the SU request is freezing, tried a reboot but no joy, any ideas?
### Solved ###
This is a JF 1.5 issue, USB debugging must be enabled for the SU Whitelist to work (reboot not necessary).

I also have the JF 1.5ADP, but I do have the apps on the SD (I did it manually following instructions on JF's web). But it did asked me for root access like a million times (ok, a little exaggeration here, but it was like 6 or 7 times). And it takes a while (like a minute or so).

Switching between the different markets would be rather easy, you just need someone from that area to tell you what the numerical operator number and the operator name is.
I'll be posting soon how to do this process without the program install for people having trouble using market-enabler
Edit:
Try this information if you have trouble installing it: http://strazzere.com/blog/?p=260
Thanks, this is awesome! One thing I've noticed though, when viewing by popularity in uk it only shows free apps - paid aren't showing. They show normally in 'date added view though'.

*Warning* New Market(Tmo) Is being pushed OTA

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?

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?

We are using 1.6. Not 2.2. Please don't go delusional now.

You can't see Live Wallpapers just because your handset is on Android 1.6! Android Market doesn't list apps which are not compatible to your handset based on Android Version. I said, you would get this market eventually if you fall within 32 upgraded countries by goggle for Paid Apps. But this is just a workaround to force that Update now!
Well I tried the tutorial, doesn't seem to work for me.
Infact now I can't install any updates to my apps. (Download failed - Unknown error)
Luckily I have a backup of my market.apk so I'm going to reinstall

It should be working, You might be updating an app which you didn't install from market but it has an update for you. Try searching a new app and isntall it! Didn't you get the New Market through this?
And you need not re-install the Market Apk, just restore the original market settings from the app itself and it would be enough!

It is 2.2 related in the way that this is how the market works on Android 2.2. I guess Google decided to change things on their own, instead of waiting for OEMs.
Also, I don't have the new market, and I probably won't get it any time soon.

Google Earth: 2.1 ROMS (Syndicate/Epic Experience/Baked Snack, etc)

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.

New Google Music APK

http://www.droid-life.com/2011/10/07/download-google-music-4-0-1-pulled-from-ice-cream-sandwich/
Droid Life just posted the new Google Music APK. There was a trick to installing it on the Transformer though. Not sure if this is something specific to Honeycomb, but I had to do a few things before the app would install successfully without erroring out.
1 - Open Titanium Backup > Backup/Restore > click on Music and make a backup (optional)
2 - As it's a system app, force uninstall Music from Titanium Backup
3 - reboot
4 - install the new Music APK
5 - as noted in the DL article, you may need to Clear Data on the new app before it will sync with your Google account.
Hope this helps someone, happy listening!
EDIT: it seems this apk is not 100% Honeycomb compatible as it force closes on the song screen. Make that backup!
I installed but I get force close everytime I click on an album, any idea why??

So far everyone with a tf or xoom that posted about it (myself included) has said the same thing.
Yeah, I spent about an hour trying different things looking for a fix. Reverted back to 3.0.1 for now, hope someone comes up with a fix soon! Artists/albums screens seem less buggy on the new APK.

I hate how bad the Artist/album screens are on my Transformer. I figured I was the only one. It like it keeps refreshing the list and I can't even get down the list.
A new Google Music apk (4.0.1) has reportedly been pulled from Verizon’s Galaxy Nexus which also means that it was built specifically for Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0). The hints of ICS are all over it, but most noticeably from the color scheme which has turned cyan-blue. It also feels much more polished than previous builds.

So it appears that this version is not downward compatible with hc 3.2.1. Nothing you can do about that, except wait for ics to reside within the tf101.
For what its worth.....
I have just got it fully working on my sgs2.
Gonna give it a whirl on my tf now.

The new Music 4.0 fails to detect that you're using a tablet, the widget is the one used on the phone. I don't think its ready for use on the tablet yet.
Ive had a word with a guy i know......
Lets see what happens
And, im gonna have a look at that myself too. But i dont hold out much hope
