New Market

Somebody tried to install the new market?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868767
Would be nice, if somebody try. I cant get it worked. Apk install fails und zip too.

just tried, the normal apk, and the update.zip
( com.android.vending_2.2.6.apk ) and ( Vending-2.2.6-signed-testkeys.update.zip )
doesnt work for me :/

No luck there either, force closes everytime no matter how installed (update, install, plain apk replace...). Logcat says the app is lacking GAPPS access permission (permission to access gapps account). Guess it's some API mismatch?
it supposedly works when updated ->2.1.2 -> 2.2.6. Haven't tried yet...

i succeded to run it on my milestone with CM6.1..but only for a few seconds. i cleared the data on old market app,then wiped the cache and put the new market as Vending.apk in \system\app. it started and i had some seconds to try it out..then it FC'd and did not start anymore. nice GUI tho! hope someone will fix it soon.

same thing happened to me, tried both the zip and the apk and NO LUCK

i managed to install it but then i get continously force closes and cannot get into the market anymore!

Your best bet is to wipe pretty much everything and to inject is straight away.
Or just wait a week or so.

I used appbrain to uninstall the Market update, then I successfully installed an app before market auto-updated and resumed its regular force close programming.
Crappy workaround, but it gets the job done.
Using TelusLite v4

Upon further testing, the trick is to open up the newly installed app before market updates. I do this by keeping the notification window open while the app downloads, and then clicking on the app as soon as it is finished downloading. Soon after, market will auto update and forceclose.
Reminds me of the old nintendo timing.

what rom are u using? imm running cm6 and i still have the old market

I saw somewhere a market that was either new or themed. It had a dark grey theme...not the typical white and green.
Does anyone know anything about this? Is this the NEW market?
Is there a way to theme the market?

Can anyone post old market .apk? I installed the new one and i'm not able to enter into apps and install/update them. Everytime I have force closes.
And didn't backuped the old one so i can't restore it.
I'd be glad if anyone upload it.
#EDIT
Got it. If anyone have the same problem as me:
-uninstall new market via app manager
-download Vending.apk
-put it to the system/app and install

Telus Milestone on AT&T, running TelusLite v5
try this:
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Market
Hit force stop, then clear cache. Now hit home, menu, then load your market... should get the new one once loaded. Not sure if this works for everyone, but thats how i did mine.

[Q] Enabling Market in UAE (Galaxy Tab)

I bought one from local carrier Etisalat, it has all the features working except the most wanted one "Market". I tried many ways to enable it but no success. Finally I am able to install the Market and can open it after some errors. But now once I select any app to install it shows downloading and then shows error in notification area "Download was unsuccessful, please try again". Please guys help me out of this issue.

Not sure if it will do any good. But try the market enabler. Maybe faking your carrier will help.

I tried this but this also needs a proper working market application.
In my case the app is not working properly.

Hey, mind me asking you which method did you use to get market? I'm not haveing any issues with market on my tab or desire
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

I followed this blog methods:
"[How-To] Enable Android Market
SOLUTION 1
First option is by changing the region.
In the dialer do:
*#272*YOUR_IMEI#
This will bring up a little menu. Select XSG, install and you are ready to go.
!!!!Be warned though, this will do a factory reset and you will lose your apps and stuff.
!!!!If your going to try, backup everything.
Thanks Ayman07
SOLUTION 2
Procedure :
Install a file manager like.Estrongs or Astro from here:
Transfer it with bluetooth or USB to your phone and install.
After installing the File manager.
1. Go to internal memory root
2. navigate to /system/app
3. Locate Vending.apk
4. push on it to install it
It may force close the first time you run it but the second time it should work.
If you still encounter Force Close or download issues, do the following ( you might want to do it anyway as it is sometimes better to start with a clean slate)
1. Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
2. Chose All
3. Find Market
4. Push on it and select Clear data
P.S (you might want to use the attached Vending.apk if the one that is on Galaxy Tab fails)
"
First procedure was not working and then tried 2nd one, Market get installed but not able to install any application. Always getting download unsuccessful error.

I tried that one, there is no XSG or any EU countries code. All are Middleast, turkey etc and I think in all of those market is disabled.
Guys please help me, this issue is pissing me off.

Kenya works, most of the countries there work, I got mine working on Tunisia I think.
now if you want arabic support as well, your going to need to flash the software to the newer UAE one which also has the Android Market

I am in Jordan.
I tried XSG and still have only free apps. I dont have KEN either.
I tried KSA , the Market icon went off... so I am back to XSG but still no paid Apps. just the free ones.
Any suggestions?

P.S. Market Enabler did not work as well.

Market Enabler works only if you have rooted your device.

Thanks for your reply... I did install z4root and I had 2 options, permanent and temp. root.. I did the permanent root and tried market enabler (it keeps on saying: Huston, we've got a problem) then tried the temp. root and the same message appears.
When I used the *#272* method, I am currently on XSG and when I've connected my TAB to my PC it prompted me that there is an update, so I updated it and dont have a clue if my device is still rooted or not but yet again, market enabler is not working.
Thanks again for your help.

Cant connect to market UK

Hey guys,
Im having the same problem here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11361701&postcount=1
seem to be having a marketplace problem I was hoping others could confirm. Whenever we try to set up an account for the marketplace, the setup app returns "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server." I'm trying to figure out if this is our problem, or something gone wonky on Google's end. Can anyone else confirm
I cant even add my normal account.
This is all after doing a factory reset.
Any idea what to do?
I tried the crack....
"UPDATE
Thanks to thebadfrog for piecing the bits together on this to figure out what was happening. He's also got Market Enabler available for download at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18721949/ch....tenabler-1.apk
Download Market Enabler, copy to device, tap to install
Open ME, select Settings List
Tap and hold on a carrier
select "fake this provider now" > allow"
This doesnt work as When you go to settings list It doesnt show UK carriers (Mine is T-mobile) and the ones there dont work.
Any help appriciated.

Try logging in via You Tube said to work for some .

Market Apps Won't Install, Says Paused?

I just got my Dell Streak today and all I've done so far is root it using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997581
I can't install any apps, it'll ask for permissions and act like it's starting to download but then it goes into "pause" mode and doesn't install or download.
Any ideas?

If I understand you correctly, it starts to download, and actually says "Starting Download" but then doesn't download?
My solution to the problem was to delete the Market cache (Settings>Applications>Manage Applications, select "All" tab, then Market>Clear Cache) and then run Market again. This worked, but a side effect was that I had to install each app manually. No big deal...at least it worked.

Yep, exactly! Thanks, I'll try it!

One more thing to try if the App is hanging when downloading
Go out of the market
Start up GOGGLE VOICE and sign out of Goggle Voice and do it again start it up and sign out
Go back into the market go to the app that is trying to download and cancel it then click install again and it will download.
I cannot remember why Voice interferes with the market but goggle knows about it and that fix came from there website
Hope that helps

[CM7]where's the market?

I 've flash CM7 latest ROM and the google app pack, but my wildfire still doesn't have market

Did you get the correct gapps from here? The universal one...

Yep, but I have not sign in gmail account yet, I don't have wifi and can't access data?how can I access data on CM7?

What data.. mobile internet data ?
If so, go to wireless settings and under mobile networks check whether u have correct access point or not.
If needed u must manually add access point by asking the service provider for settings. Actually the settings will be automatically configured. But check again.
And if u don't get market after adding gmail account, then try to reflash the correct universal cm7 google apps package again.

In the worst case just take your sdcard out of your phone, go to a computer with internet access, download gapps an put in on the root of your sdcard, reboot the phone in recovery and flash the zip.
EDIT: Wait.. you say you have already the latest version of gapps and you.. euhm.. sorry, what is your question exactly?

Now I knew that I don't have market because I didn't sign in Gmail account. But my phone cannot access to mobile data like bharatgaddameedi said. But when I opened access point name in mobile networks, it blank man!Nothing in there,just a black screen.

Press Menu Button there > New APN, and fill out the details as provided by your service operator. Then you will be able to access mobile data (2G / 3G) as expected.

Exactly. That's the best thing according to me.
Service providers will tell that they will send a settings msg and that comes after many many hours sometimes. Sometimes they say that device is not supported. What a joke....? Its better to do things on our own (atleast when they can be done). ---- and only if u have made a nandroid backup of stock rom.

I have another problem... I'm not able to put widgets of different apps on the home screen.....any help with that ??

if the apps are moved to sd card, i think that their widgets don't work, move the apps back on the phone and try.

Yeah I figured that out... But isn't there a way with which I can put apps on sd card and still have widgets ??

really don't know, sorry

No, its an Android limitation.

Dta2sd should help. Apps on SD with widgets working.
