[Q] Missing apps on market - Wildfire General

Hi,
I've patched my market with this patch :
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831782
Some apps that weren't showing are now showing on the market but a lot are missing
I can't find Paypal app and all the Up-Front Works apps (Androlib does not say they are no longer available (bit.ly/cR6tfA))
My provider is SFR (France)
A friend who has a wildfire and used the same patch can see these apps on his market (His provider is Orange (France))
Is there a way to get these apps on my phone ?
Thanks

Try: Market Enabler. It is an .apk file that you just have to transfer to your SD, and then install it from your preferred file manager.
Make sure you also do this;
[from Sympnotics Thread]
".....4 - After flashing the market, you still can't see more apps ? You'll need to go to "Settings", from there go to Applications -> Manage Applications -> All -> find the Market app ==> Purge its datas & caches......"
This has worked 200% of the time for me, W I T H O U T fail.

I can see more applications with MarketEnabler but not those I need.
I also erased the market data and nothing has changed

Hi dude, there's a topic for this kind of questions (which is the one you downloaded the patch on) that's a better place to answer/ask questions and keep a trace of it for other people and to keep this forum "clean".
That being said, I just updated the thread, and I can see paypal without using MarketEnabler, I'm on SFR too. Flash the V4, check if it's blue, search for paypal, if you still can't see it, post a reply.

[Q] Another noob question about apps

Hi, with help from these forums i have rooted my Wildfire and got Wildpuzzle rom working on it.The next question is how do you download and install apps.
I go to market search for the app I want click download and the download icon appears in the bar at the top,but thats it.When I search the phone there is no trace of it.
I have created a G-mail account and wifi is working ok,I`ve also tried downloading to my pc an transferring them to the phone but still cant get any to work.I`ve searched the forums, but cant get installer apps to work either.
Anyone else had this problem with the Wildfire and found asolution?
Thanks again
It looks like the download doesn't start right? Try flashing a new patched market. Can't say anything else at the moment

Sooo, any specific app here, or are you referring to the market apk itself?
Please search before posting
There is a search function guys. This is my fourth time posting this as a reply to this very issue for someone.
This will fix it 90% of the time:

I had this problem when I published an app, so I monkied around with it until I figured it out. When I disabled copy protection on my app, suddenly it was compatible with my device (Sony Xperia Play) and I was able to install through the android market.
Copy protection is now deprecated and is being replaced with a new licensing feature, so assuming licensing doesn't have the same bug this problem will in theory be phased out.
So if you are a developer and some people can't see your app, disable copy protection and use licensing instead. I also suggest using the Android SDK built in ProGuard feature to obfuscate (scramble) your code to make it harder to reverse engineer.
Hmmmm. it seems that my problems with Android Market was due to the DPI change which I made - the display density.
I changed my HTC Desire back from 200 dpi to the default value if 200 dpi, after that I cleared Android Market data and cache and restarted the phone.
After that on Android Market the problem with the "This item is not compatible with your device" error on some applications was fixed.
P.S. For changeing the display density you can use one of this apps from the Market: LCD Density or LCD Density Changer
Download the nook tweaks and nook odds and ends apps from the market.then go to display settings in one of the apps,I forget which,and change LCD density to160 reboot try then

I get this on many apps including facebook. They all say they need to be updated but when I try to update they complain. I'll try to upgrade to the latest nightly when I find some free time.

You may want to avoid the latest as it has a few issues. 7.1 stable would be a better choice.

This fix worked for me after trying all of the previous in this thread.
Only thing missing in the link is granting SuperUser permission to FileExpert. If it doesn't have SU "mount" won't show up in the list.

I'm using HTC HD2 with haldricc's Rom "SENSATION XL V 3.0 stock ALL IN ONE (marc v0.1.8 ker)".
I have the same problem, I cannot install some applications. Once I find the apk file, I installed it and worked but not thru market.
THe solution does not fit in my problem since my lcd density is already 240. I guess every application looks for some parameters.
Any solution for me ?
thanks

Market Problem

When trying to search ,on my mobile market, a lot of apps that I used to have i can't find them
and when i tried to install them from market.android.com i get " this item can not be installed in your device's country"
any help here please?
Hey men where are you from? I had the same issue when installed cm7.. the gapps that comes with it downloads the Gmail YouTube and other applications from the market but it seems like they are not available in my country. So what I did was looking in Google for the gapps of the same version but full about 15mb more or less and flash it in the recovery. Problem solved

Some apps are specific to certain countries and regions. Seems the ones you're trying to install don't work in Egypt.
If you are rooted download 'MarketEnabler'
Once installed you can run it and choose to spoof your location so you can download apps from say the US Market rather than the Egypt Market
they were working and i have them already installed but suddenly they disappeared !

no apps market

hi
just got a new htc desire hd
and there is no android market on the phone
how can i install it to the phone
thanks
Are you definitely sure that it isn't there? Considering that it does come installed stock.
Otherwise, install it from this link: http://code.google.com/p/synergy-base/source/browse/trunk/system/app/Vending.apk?r=239

You really should go back to wherever you bought it from and ask for an explanation.
If that doesn't work out for you, a simple way to install it without connecting it to your computer would be to install ROM Manager and then install Google Apps from there. I personally would take the new Market from the XDAForums.
Hey, if you are going to install the market, it might as well be the new one.
How can he install ROM Manager easily without the Market, and what use would that be? I've merely provided the apk, that's all there is to it.
To the OP, remember to allow installing from unknown sources under Settings > Applicationa

I see your point.
I was just assuming that if he didn't have the market, he probably didn't have some g apps either.
Doing it either way is easy enough, and in any case, and if you're going to install through an apk, then you might as well take the new one (that said, I haven't checked out your link as yet).
Does ROM Manager give a flashable package or a bunch of apks? Because again, if he isn't rooted, he can't flash zips either...knowing ROM Manager, I'm presuming they are zips.
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
ROM Manager deals with installing Google Apps the same way it deals with any other ROM. It is a pretty useful thing tto hhave, especially because a lot of ROMs ship without Google apps.
So yeah, I'm guessing that you would have to root.

That's really strange, I've had no problems at all with mine! What ROM are you running? Maybe its a bug?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Sugggest you back to shop to ask for an explain. By default it comes with HTC Sense and all Google apps. If you sure it is not there, maybe the shop flash you another customized rom?
as far as know its the standard rom the phone came with
its wasn't root etc.
its not a UK phone its from Kuwait but it has English etc on it
i was wondering if it doesn't have apps market as standard in that country??
i got it online so would mean posting back, emailed them and that dont understand why it didnt have the market on.

If you go to settings > about phone > software, could you post the info from there on here please? Just to determine whether your ROM is standard or not

You can get the latest Android Market.apk from here.
(It's also on XDA in a few threads.)
EDIT: Sorry, nevermind. I missed the replies on page 1.

Hmm...all stock. Strange.
Did you install the Vending.apk from my link, and did that work? 1.86 is very old, that might be why it doesn't work as well.
If mine didn't work, I can fetch the previous version for you.

How to change device name for market?

today i wanted to buy Animating Touch from PC market but it says not compatible device. how can i change HD2 name for example to Desire HD?
thanks
have search a lot and get nothing
Since this new market i have the same problem! "Your device is not compatible". With lots of apps. At least, the new facebook app is not installable due to this restriction.
Any ideas how to fix that little problem?

You have two options:
1- Forget about installing most apps (as most of the apps are incompatible with our "Androided HD2")
2- Remove the new market, and install the old one (v 2.X.X.XX) and use market enabler + edit build.prop to match the device's compatibility.
Thx man, i'll try this tomorrow!!

Here is the old market:
https://sites.google.com/site/droidlife35/home/android_market.apk?attredirects=0
install normally, and freeze market updater using Titanium Backup Pro or remove "MarketUpdater.apk" from /system/app/ (after making a backup) then go to settings>app>manage>market>uninstall updates.
And the build.prop is located in your phone in /system/
edit the following lines:
Code:
ro.product.model=
ro.product.brand=
ro.product.name=
ro.product.device=
ro.product.board=
ro.product.manufacturer=
to match the ones on the device you want to disguise as.
market enabler can be found in the market (requires root)

What does the new market use to determine compatibility? It sounds like it used to use SIM + build.prop data, but now uses something else. IMEI maybe?
It looks like the apps just specify which features they use and the market determines if your device supports all those features. Which leads me to think that the market either has some profile for the HD2 or we are being evaluated using some "default" profile for unknown devices. Given this, is it know what features the market thinks the HD2 supports vs. does not support? Is there a way to get Google to update (or create) the profile for the HD2?
Thanks

Yeah I think that's just it. It looks for device's identity(in build.prop), LCD Density and SIM's number.
Hi I'm pretty new to this and I don't really know how to get rid of the marketupdater.apk. I have the AmeriCan Android SD method for HD2, any help would be great!
Thanks.
