Android Market changed back to the old market.

My Android market updated itself from the new market 2.11 to 2.13 which is the old Android market for some reason.

Mine too ......
its probably because you updated it manually like an app. it probably installed itself into /data/app/ instead of /system/app/. if you use root explorer, paste the .11 market into /system/app/ then install it there. delete the older market. this way it will stay on reboot.
And a big ol' thanks to you, Simms22. Same thing happened to me.

When the Market updates itself, it puts the updated version into /data/app, exactly the same as if you were to manually update it.
No app ever replaces an apk on /system/app, because it can't.
2.13?
Could someone please upload the .apk for the 2.2.13 version? It seems the latest i have is 2.2.11. Does anyone think its a bit odd that the latest version is back to the old market? Anyone think al the Nexus S problems are because of the new market? I know my Nexus only every reboots after i just close market.. hm...
After upgrading to Gingerbread on N1 I have the old style market. I'm on Market 2.13 now, I don't know what I was on before. Is this the latest market?
No, but it will update itself pretty quickly.
Huh. I have Market 2.3.2.
(file deleted)
My current collection of Market.apks:
Market 2.06.apk
Market 2.07.apk
Market 2.12.apk
Market 2.13.apk
Market 2.2.7.apk
Market 2.2.11.apk
Market 2.3.2.apk
My market has just upgraded to 2.3.3 now.
I've been on 2.3.3 for about a week now, and it has remained that even after the upgrade.

[Q] Latest Version of ClockworkMod for the Aria?

I've seen numerous references to updated versions of ClockworkMod Recovery, up to version 3x. When I first flashed and rooted my Aria back in October of 2010 using the Unrevoked method, the version that was installed was 2.5.0.1
Multiple others have posted to use the ROM Manager App from the Marketplace to update it, however I personally do not like ROM Manager as it seemed to make my phone quirky when using it, and ClockworkMod remained at the same version regardless, so I uninstalled it.
I just completed the unrevoked method again, downloading the latest unrevoked installer for the HTC Aria, and the ClockworkMod version is still 2.5.0.1.
Is this THE version of ClockworkMod for our phone? Or is there another means of updating it that I can't seem to find here on XDA or through several hours of google searches?
Has anyone else found a non ROM Manager update?

There was a question in the Development forum about ClockworkMod 3 and jznomoney replied that Aria users don't need to update to version 3 and in fact he said if you do then you wouldn't be able to install any of the Liberated ROMs. BTW the most current version for the Aria is 2.5.0.1 as reported by ROM Manager.
Thanks for the info. I did invert the numbers in the version and have corrected it.

I need some suggestions!

I am about to get my new Droid X this coming week and was just wondering how easy these phones are to mod? I have a samsung intercept right now and have a custom rom, theme, root, and recovery on it. What would you guys suggest to do to my new Droid X? Any tips or suggestions?

Easy.
But we have a locked bootloader, if you don't know. Meaning we can't run custom kernels.
I recommend:
Z4root (find the apk here in the forums).
Titanium Backup Pro (or free) from the market.
Liberty Toolbox (Donate or free...donate comes with gingerbread nightlies)
Root with z4root.
Open your contacts and click options>export contacts to SD.
Backup applications with titanium backup.
Use Liberty Toolbox to install Clockwork.
Find the full liberty.zip in the "Rom Manager" section of Liberty Toolbox.
Check both options to backup/wipe.
It will install for you!
Restore applications with Titanium.
Do this except with apex instead of liberty
How much faster would the Droid X be if I rooted it? Also, I heard gingerbread leaked somewhere. Is that easy to flash onto the phone?

Restore apps after new ROM install?

I have a rooted droid X and would like to install the Liberty ROM. I have installed custom ROMS before.
If I take a backup of my apps using Titanium backup can I restore the apps using the backup onto the newly installed liberty ROM?
Any guidance on this would be appreciated.
Nobody? I am getting anxious to try liberty.

Yes.
_____
Yes. That is the process I've been following for any new ROM.
I really hope you use the paid version of Titanium... if not you will need to approve each app's installation individually when you run the batch restore.

Liberty can actually backup and restore apps, TB can then be used to restore some game app data, so if you liberty, u have no need for the paid version of TB
I think everyone said it already but yes its easy as pie no worries
No. Don't use pirated applications. What do you think this is? an iPhone?
Also, don't bring back threads that are over a year old.

Two things here I will address...
First, this type of language will not be tolerated...
Second, the discussion of pirated and or cracked software, additionally will not be tolerated.
Thank You

Xda app issues with Rendeiro's scramble mod

So I have been using the scramble 2.2.1 from Rendeiro2005. Very happy with it and will stick with it until there is a good 2.3 mod out.
One weird issue I have been having is that I am unable to update the XDA app that came with the mod. When I go to update it, I get "installation unsuccessful". I tried to just uninstall and reinstall and I am unable to uninstall. With root uninstaller, I get "uninstall unsuccessful".
Not a huge deal, but it is a bit irritating. I looked through the whole thread in the developers forum and didn't see anyone else with this issue. Anyone have any ideas about this?

Oh yeah, when I try to upgrade and it fails, I click on the notification and it says "package not signed correctly".

Ok so I got on a computer and did some searching. I seem to fail at searching the forum from my phone, because I found this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030053
It is odd, because the OP on that thread was having issues with calls and other things because he didn't patch his baseband. I am on 2.1.54 and not having any other issues besides this one. Do I need to do something with the baseband?
you are not able to update XDA app coz its in /system/app folder and not /data/app
as per my understanding
that's becuase it comes packaged with the rom itself.....
BTW any specific reason why you want to update the app...

I checked for an update because it crashed a couple of times and it gets hung up every so often. I uninstalled it with titanium like in the other thread and I am now getting "Incompatible Update" just like that other guy. Now I have nothing.
I made a backup with xrecovery about week ago and I guess i can restore that to get the app back, but I would like to fix this instead. Is there some reference I can remove to be able to install the app in the /data/app folder?
