[Q] Where is the new Android Market update? - Epic 4G General

Where's the new Android Market update? I see all of the pictures of the new Market on the tech blogs, but no update love for our Epics? Granted, I'm still on 2.1.1, but what's the deal, yo? Froyo only?

Not sure how they are pushing it out. It isn't just for froyo though. I finally got it yesterday on stock 2.1.

I got it on 2.1, and on 2.2.
Make sure all of your apps are up to date, it doesn't seem to take unless you have updated everything that has an update in the market.
I got mine after I cleared up remaining updates on both versions (could just be coincidence, but i see merit behind it)

Mine just got updated today... kind of strange as I booted into the old one... was using it and then all of a sudden it was the new one.

Disagree i got mine yesterday and my pandora has been at 1.5.1 rather then the updated 1.5.2 cause i have a modified one with no audio ads and unlimited skips.

I just noticed I got mine today & I'm running on 2.2 dk28

I got mine today after I updated Google Earth. It installed I pulled my notification bar down and boom it popped back into the new market when I closed it. I have the Baked snacks rom and it works pretty good but I can't wait for the official Froyo I installed the dk-28 but it was a bit to buggy for me btu great battery life.

I did the manual update for the market and when I did that I noticed that there wasn't a section for widgets like promised. I just went to my market and now there is so that's pretty cool I must have gotten it and not noticed it. And a section for live wallpapers too!!

Oddly enough, my 1.6 G1 got it, and my Epic hasn't yet. Poor G1 doesn't have enough balls to run it, I keep getting the "app is not responding" popup.

Is there a manual update for the market somewhere. My epic does not seem to be getting it.

here ya go : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=869352

Opened up the market and saw that I now have the updated version. Wasn't asked to update.
Is it laggy for anyone else? Doesn't force close but seems unresponsive and it seems like it chokes the network. Takes forever to download an app. Maybe it's just me. I even rebooted. Even after reboot, when I try to browse the market, my phone just freezes...

got the update here too. wasn't asked. its laggy as hell. glitchy as hell.
wtf?
im stock.

You have to leave background data on and I would turn auto sync on too for a bit. Open the market and hit the home key so it doesn't close it should do its thing.

I got mine about a week ago by flashing from CWM. However, if you have Titanium Backup you can force the new update out of ram and have it integrate back into rom.

Yes. They seem to be having some issues.

Ok, just glad I'm not the only one. Was going to flash a new ROM, but I'll wait till this gets worked out.

HA!! I just switched to a new ROM and I have been posting in the devs thread telling them the ROM isn't allowing me to download anything from the market. Oops! At least I know where the problem is coming from now though. Too bad I have wiped my phone and now can't download Titanium Backup to restore.
Also I have tried 3G, 4G and Wifi. The market just isn't working.
Yeah, maps won't update. Guess ill have to wait. Now says my maps aren't even installed.

1 out of 3 downloaded (smart keyboard pro) maps and another app are hanging as well. I was wondering what was going on. Glad I saw this thread I was considering a wipe. Using calkulins rom.
This is driving me crazy.
It goes from "Starting download" to "Download paused"
dumb
Same here. Started this afternoon when I went to update some apps. Goes straight to download paused (never even seen that before) and after some time says download was unsuccessful. Tried downgrading market but it didn't help. I hope Google gets the market issues fixed soon. They keep secretly updating it and half the time it works and the other half it gets serious bugs.
What a cluster, but I'm glad It's not just me.

Dk28 issues with te market

Hello everyone. I am running an epic rooted and running 2.2 froyo dk28. Everything was working fine until this morning, I can't update any apps or download any new apps even the paid for ones. The status would show downloading sign for a couple seconds then it would just dissappear from the notifications. Is anybody experiencing the same issues? Please advise.

every once in awhile the market, will do this..
Wait about an hour and try again and it should work.
happens to me every now and then. I usually just do a battery-pull re-boot and that usually fixes things.
Thanks guys. I'll try again in an hour and I'll try the battery pull reboot.

not a problem also here is another tip, if for some reason your downloaded apps from the market dont show up in your my app or my downloads in the market:
goto settings/Applications/market/then clear data and it will fix that market issue too..
Battery pull didn't work. Btw what version are you running? 2.1? 2.2? I keep thinking that the market has already updated so that DK28 softwares can't upgrade or use the market anymore because they are preparing for the new froyo(official, set to be released Feb 21). Still can't update apps or install new apps. I also have used only half of my rom space. About 60-70% has been moved to SD card via a2sd app.

I am using dk28 2.2 as well. The battery pull trick would always fix my issue, but maybe try clearing the data and cache for the market like davidrules said. Also, this is a long shot in the dark, but try updating your "profile" under system updates.

just being curious

i dont think that the EB13 update that was posted by samsung on the website is the real thing....to be honest i think that is just another test release from the looks of it because they are pushing an update out via OTA that you have to wait for......i mean i messing with the one that samsung posted up and all of the things that it was suppose to fix is not fixed.......im going to wait for the OTA
I think it's already been confirmed in the OTA status thread that it's the same thing from Samsung's website...
EDIT: I guess it has not been confirmed yet. Anybody with an OTA update care to confirm or deny?
Suite yourself, killer, but you're the only person I've seen who's expressed that opinion ever since Samsung got the correct EB13 files up. Yes, at first they had some EB01 files listed, as well as had some misnamed as KB13, but for ~15 hours now they've had EB13 posted, and many people on XDA, including experienced developers, have downloaded, flashed, and started digging into EB13. I feel pretty sure it's the real deal.
I think that the majority of people's issues are coming from bad upgrades/flashes, and they need to A) clear cache (including Dalvik if they're using CWM) and B) if the issues persist they should do a clean wipe/flash.

Clearing the cache is stuff you do when you don't have the official stuff....you shouldn't have to go through all that trouble if it was the official release.....idk.....im going to wait for the OTA and see if there is any difference.....just to be sure

Its the official. The ota is pushed from sprint. Thats the only difference. We may receive small patches and things for other bugs but this is the official froyo for our phones.

I got the ota and I'm having issues no camera,no pics in gallery but they are still on my sd card, no music player I got a player from the market and it works so my music is on my sd card. The music icon is pink also not sure if it is supose to be.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
i know the Syndicate development team is waiting for the OTA version before they dig in and do their thing. it might just be a precaution, i really don't know myself. i'm waiting on the OTA so i can send it to them, but if anyone has it, they could do that first. of course once you install it i think it might be too late.
It has been confirmed in multiple threads, there is just 200 pages to sort through since it's release. The files are the EXACT same.

Yea there appears to be an issue with eb14 reading media files. Apparently formatting you memory card then reloading your files resolves that.

No, clearing cache is stuff you do when you want to eliminate the possibility of a preexisting mess screwing up your experience. The only time an OS upgrade will work 100% perfectly and smoothly is by doing a wipe and clean install. If you just flash overtop of what you already have, expect complications.
This is true of all OSes. A clean Ubuntu install will always be more worryproof than upgrading from, say, 9.10 to 10.10. A clean Windows 7 SP1 install will always be smoother than installing SP1 on top of an existing Windows 7 gold install.
At any rates, wipes and clean installs shouldn't be scary or 'unnecessary' to regulars on this forum. It was a whole terrifying 10 minutes of work to resync my phone and get my apps downloading.

No worries here. Root, then use Titanium Backup to save your apps and data. Flash, crash or trash your phone, but just reroot and use Titanium to restore it. And you get your Birds data back.

Not Receiving Market App Update Notifications

I've had this problem for months on all sorts of ROMs but never put much thought into it.
Is there a fix? I NEVER know if updates are available until I hit up the market.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
Go to market, menu button>settings>notify me
I should have mentioned that I had that option selected. I've also tried clearing the cache, etc, with no luck.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
I think the Market just sucks at notifying you. Its never been very good at notifying on my G1, mytouch slide, or the Vibrant, so its gotta be the Market.
I thought so too, but notifications work perfectly on my rooted Nook.

I've tried that before with no luck. What's really weird is that my market cache is always 0.0kb in size as well.
I wonder if I have an app or something that is blocking it. Right before I installed Bionix 1.3 I formatted my internal sd (just because I had never done so) and I received market notifications then and thought that maybe it was just clutter. But the issue is back. Super weird.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using Tapatalk
I also don't receive update notifications until I open my market. I just let programs update automatically, and check it every once in a while for manual updates due to apps requesting new permissions.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
I think its a market issue. Its hit or miss for me. Sometimes I get them and sometimes I dont.
I don't know if this is a 2.2 issue or not but ever since i updated, my market has been acting iffy...along with a few other samsung widgets. I don't know if it's a server issue or something with 2.2 on our phones but i know a few people that started having that problem as soon as they updated to 2.2.
Same market issue here, hardly ever get notifications on updates. However whenever I open market all the notifications come up
I'm with everyone else, I don't think I've ever gotten notifications before. My gf's phone doesn't get hers either and shes using a MyTouch Slide. I do get notifications right after I close the Market, but never before.
I think its purely a market issue.

It worked perfectly on android 1.1 with the G1 back then, but since 1.5 its been hit or miss .... guess its been over looked by the OEM, when putting together roms for their devices ... Or it can just be an issue with google's servers .. I just made it a habit to check every day for updates ..
Mine works it seems to work every 3-4 days on notifying me. But, it hangs in the download so I end up doing manual update.
This method go to Market> type find updates or update apps then it seems to find them
The auto update is kinda flaky and unreliable
What's weird about it, at least to me, is that it works perfect on my rooted nook and with the honeycomb demo for my nook. At least I'm not the only SGS owner with issues.

Wait... you think this is a bug/bad thing?
OMG I'd be thrilled to never receive market update notifications, instead, I have to manually kill the service every reboot (even with "do not notify me" set) and often uninstall unwanted updates from my themed apps in /system/app until I have time to theme them.
Royal pain, I'd love to never have updates, lol.

Netflix disappeared from the market

Well, we all know by now that Netflix streaming isn't working with Gingerbread + Sense on our Evos, but now it looks like Netflix pulled the app entirely from the market for us. I've tried searching for it on my phone, and it doesn't show up. When I searched for it in the market on my computer, it says my device isn't compatible.
I hope this means they took it down to fix it, not that they're dropping support for us completely...
Netflix has already told us they are working on a fix. Check twitter or call them. Guy on phone told me their engineers are working with HTC to get this resolved.
I noticed that too, I figured there will be an update soon or theres a bug in the app.
Yeah, it was on there long enough for me to install it, now it's not on there, or on my list of installed apps.
And when an app isn't compatible with the os version you are running it wont show up in your app catalog. The are 3.0 only apps and apps that aren't available in the US that we never see.

haha i didn't update and checked and its gone even from my market.
thankfully still works. I'd imagine by the time my rom gets the update netflix will have the fix in place. Shouldn't take them too long to fix the app. It's clearly a Netflix problem as their app checks the device before allowing streaming to work. Would think that since they are currently specific to device and OS combo's that they only need to add the EVO on 2.3.3 to the accepted list in a sense....
Yeah, Evo is removed now under list of compatible devices.
Thursday... i tried a GB+sense3 ROM... i found the Netflix app in the market.
but was not able to try it.. due to bad data connection.
because of other issues... i went back to WarmZ (froyo with sense)
just checked to see.. and netflix is not there!
