UK Voda Magic CM 4.2.14.1 CM recovery 1.4
OK having problems i have :
Wiped data, cache, ext,
repartitioned with default setting using CM recovery,
flashed CM 4.2.15.1
Now the market appears to only be partially working, no paid apps tab and the downloads tab is empty ie it doesnt show my purchased apps
If i install any apps they are not recognised and after a reboot force close on opening.
I gave up yesterday night and today and magically the market is back and functioning properly including any apps i install and my list of purchased apps!! The only apps not working were the ones i installed prior to the market being fully functional although if i uninstall and install again they work no problem.
Great so seems like it fixed itself!! Not trusting this i wiped again to start from scratch and bang here i am again with a partially functioning market.
I have tried :
Running the script to remove the vending database - no help
Wiping the data and ext - no help
gtalk log in/out - no help
Help!!!!
Sounds to me like it's not signing you in all the way or something. Not sure how you would solve it, but maybe try a different ROM and see if the problem persists. Hopefully someone else can help you out a little more.
I have no idea why, but when I flash cyanogen google paid apps never show, probably google being a ***** as they kind of banned him(read about it on google) . Try a different rom ,Cyanogen aint that great anyways.

Google hasn't "banned" him, they tried to protect their IP. It was completely within their rights, and although the community may hate Google for it, they have no reason to "ban" CM from the market.
I just finished reading an article on Eweek that indicates that access to the android market in mow available for computers http://market.android.com/....
I don't know if it is only supported on Honeycomb, but I can't wait to get home and try it...
here is the Eweek article also:

I shared your excitement but as I'm sure you discovered, it still does work! You need to log in with a Google ID, but when you do, it tells you that there is no Android phone associated with your account.
I don't have an Android phone but I wonder if I did have one and registered it, would the A7 then be able to access the Market?
Really, Google has made the situation worse because now I can see all the great apps in the Market but can't access them! There more bliss in the ignorance when I couldn't see the apps at all!
Dexter mod

Unfortunately, I updated to the Feb 4 firmware 1 day before I learned of of this...so now I wait!
I went to market.android.com on my device. Signed in with my Google Apps account, the same one I used to sign into Google Apps services on my A7. It shows everything I have downloaded using Dexters mod marketplace in it's history or whatever it's called. Also, I can choose install on any non installed app and immediately the app downloads to the A7. I didn't get any messages about the device not being registered. it just seems to work. I am in Canada as that may make a difference.

You can still use Dexter's MOD, you'll just need to do a back up and wipe/reset the device before updating.
Is there another way to get android without Dexer's Mod? My sister is getting one of these and I want to install the Market on it for her but I don't want her to have root (If it were mine it would be a different story). There should be some way to install the market and associated services to run it with an APK file without needing to root it, like my Archos 70.

Borrow a friends Android phone, turn on its Bluetooth.
Turn on your tabs Bluetooth,pair them, use a file transfer program on his phone,download market on his phone when done tranfer it to your pad.A friend of mine did it and it works on on the free apps so far.You should then sign up with google account,before trying to get apps.

Where do you download the Market from? Can you give a more detailed step-by-step?

I have a android phone with the market and dexter 1.3 on my a7 when I go to the market on the computer it gives me the choice to sent apps to my a7 or to my phone. I have my a7 on and on the internet. It will send the app directly to the a7.
A few issues
Hi,
#1 - I can't find Dexter anywhere.
#2 - My A7 will pair, but not connect with anything.
Any thoughts??

I just downloaded the latest Android Market apk file and tried this. It installs, but the app does not run. It just will not open. Sounded like a great idea!

I have a dumb question! The mod by Bestialbub (What a name!) looks pretty simple, and it is what I am leaning towards. I really like my A7 and do not want to mess with it too much. I may even just decide to wait to see if Elocity comes out with an official patch. I just flashed my unit to the newest firmware. Do I need to do this again, as stated in the first part of the directions, or can I just boot into the recovery mode and flash using the file that I download? Also, what is the risk for doing this? Have many of you ran into issues with it? Thanks!
my market patch works fine w the latest update. check out my twitter under the same name for updated recoveries that will let you backup your rom, flash my mod, and restore back to where you were if you dont like it.
my mods a small one that can be applied anytime over the existing firmware. a factory reset should be done after that will wipe your data and let the google apps install properly on next rom boot.
i would suggest to wipe/factory reset w my clockworkmod recovery (on my twitter) as it should leave your internal storage partition w your media downloads alone. note; i havent actually tried that suggestion (reset) from cwm, but it sounds like a good idea.

I just ran this update, and followed the instructions to the letter. Everything seemed to go well, however, when the device rebooted, I see no Market link. What did I do wrong?
Never mind! I figured it out. The update.zip file I had on my sdcard was the elocity firmware file. I copied the patch to the wrong spot!! DOH!!!.;p).
Alas, Woe is me.
I went and loaded things (wallpapers, eBooks, games, etc.) onto my A7.... then I find this forum!
Is there an easy way (perhaps with a free, non-Marketplace, app) to back up all of this onto an SD card (or even a USB flash drive) and then re-install it after installing one of these mods?
I'm sure I could copy everything over individually, but there's got to be an easier way....is there?
hi, just got this phone for my son. wanted to update to android 2.1, had to jump thru hoops just to get to the update service. tried to download and install back and restore on the phone no go. it wont allow me to install other than market place. its stupid that this app is not already installed. is there another app i could use to backup the phone before updating? thanks. btw, sonyericson's site really sucks!!!
So you posted a thread just to tell us this?
I'm curious, what kind of hoops did you have to jump through to get the update service? It's rather easy to download the Update Service app via their website. Actually, I've found Sony Ericsson's website one of the easiest to navigate. The Backup & Restore application COMES preinstalled with the phone, atleast that's how it was when I got mine with 1.6.
*sigh*

Hello,
There are lots of backup apps on the market, I also did manage to search and download the backup and restore apk from the web. Haven't had any probs with x10 especially updating.

Are you in the US by any chance? If so, you won't find 2.1
And market should already be installed - you probably did something wrong during the update process
You must be on At&t, right? My At&t x10 didn't have backup and restore installed on 1.6 and no 3rd party apps either.
Are you in the US, then? Hope you don't plan on updating with SEUS... We will NEVER get it here
You can get past the install block by using Sideload Wonder Machine- 2nd post HERE, linked you to the thread to cover common problems...
Or just search backup in the market and find another app...
And then once you backup you can flash to 2.1 with Androxyde & Bin4ry's flash tool. use x10a generic build 2.1.A.0.435
the phone kind of sucks as it is when you buy it. especially from at&t. as i did.
but once u get into things on this site the phone is completely awesome.
and does not need any more bashing lol
we are more than happy with out modded x10's.
sorry
hi, sorry i forgot to say it is an at&t phone. i have sideload 1.0, i copied backup and restore to my hard drive, tried to load it with swm, but would not allow access. i'll try market place and use a different backup app.
root and use titanium backup

First, if you just got it then there shouldn't be much to backup. Update to 2.1 and treat it like a new phone. Second, if you got it from AT&T your X10 is branded AT&T meaning they have put all sorts of restrictions and blocks on your phone. The one you are dealing with now is blocked access to non approved apps. Basically AT&T has pay services that they want to force you to use.
You need to forget about SEUS or PC Companion for now. You need to use the X10 Flash Tool 2.6 and flash x10a global generic firmware 2.1.A.0.435 found here on xda. This will debrand your phone lifting non-market app restrictions (you still have to check "allow non-market apps" in settings / applications). This will also give you the latest 2.1 update, including dualtouch. You can also use the flash tool to root your phone, giving you even more control to modify your system and remove the preinstalled junk apps you don't use that slow down your device.
I tried searching for the answer to my question in multiple forums as well as reading the suggested similar threads, but didn't get a definitive answer. Apologies if this has been resolved, if someone could point me to the right thread.
If I wipe my SD install of CM7 without backing up the apps (or if something happens between backups), will Android Market have the full list of apps that I purchased and downloaded for me to re-download to my NC?
I ask because I've fiddled with different SD cards and different ROMs, and each time I look at the Market the list of apps I've downloaded (all free so far, until I get this question answered ) are different and incomplete.
I saw that there is an Eris Market Fix for this issue. Does Google put some sort of unique identifier file on each gapps install to cause this? According to their FAQ all you need to do is log into the same Google account for a complete history of (re-downloadable) apps in the My Apps area, but that hasn't been the case for me.
All paid apps will remain listed in the Market forever, but not free apps. On the other hand, on the first install of a new Android device, it will attempt to sync up with the apps you had installed previous (free and paid).
The Android Marketplace site does remember free apps however, and you can use that to push previously installed applications to a new device.
But keep in mind, free or paid, the Market only remembers that you downloaded them. It will not retain any data for those applications. That's where software like Titanium Backup comes in.
Thanks, that's very helpful! I just got Ti Backup Pro, using in conjunction with Dropbox, I was worried about my paid apps not showing up as such whenever I wipe / update my SD cards
I recently updated my Iconia a500 to the lastest update(unrooted). Since then the honeycomb market first appears when i open it, however if I try to install an app it stays at waiting to install...if I go to my apps from the app it opens it in the pre honeycomb version which is presumably the phone version. After that the honeycomb version is nowhere to be found untill I reinstall it. What might be the solution to this?
Thanks in advance for your help guys.
Has your tablet always been stock and unrooted..
Did you install the new market on the tablet before acer updated your tablet to the new market.if So where did you d/load it from.. There is a market .apk on the internet that has something wrong with it that causes this.. It installs on your tablet. Not replacing the original Market app. This was asked alot back when the new market first came out.
you can go to where the aps are system/apps and see if there is more then one market app. delete them both .
i went into settings then privacy .untick the backup account and automatic restore data this stops google from restoring data files for both market apps .then find a Legit verson of the android market apk..
Do a search on google for this issue to get step by step instructions. I am writing this out of my memory and it could be a bit off.

Thanks for your reply, my tablet has always been stock and unrooted, and for as long as I can remember has had the honeycomb market interface. Under manage applications there are two instances of the android market, the honeycomb one which can be uninstalled (uninstalls itself when I open the older version also) and the older version which doesn't have the option to be removed only remove updates.
im guessing the one that you can remove is a app that you installed..
I suggest you backup your files. to sd card..
Go to
settings
Privacy ..
and at the bottom you will see factory reset.. this will reset the tablet to total stock and remove the apps that did not come factory installed..
this should fix this issue.. for some reason a update did not remove the old market app or you installed it not knowing or forgot you did so...
Thanks for your help was hoping there was some other solution....I'm considering rooting it and installing a custom rom like what i did with my HTC sensation... once again thanks!!!
unfortunatley this need ROOT privilages.
Download "Market 3.4.4.apk" install with any File explorer app.
It's tuff to make the Market find outdated apps sometimes!
Doubtful : maybe there is a way to have a "market 3.4.4" made into a .zip file, rename to "update.zip" and boot into your stock recovery and it will add in ROM.
