Is anyone having problems with apps downloading. There are a lot of apps in which I get a requested item cannot be found, or this is not campatible for your device. The apps are regular and hd, MADE FOR TABLETS but I cannot download or even purchase them. The market online say that they are compatible with my stock Acer 3.0.1 but not with my 3.1 Acer rom.

Some guys in the Galaxy Tab thread are reporting problems with GTab wifi not being able to download some apps from Android Market.
I'm a few days from buying a Xoom here in Brasil. I am thinking of wifi only model but I have to be sure that Market can be used as in the 3G model
I have a wifi only Xoom, Market works great.
I don't have any issues with the market here. But the Galaxy Tab uses the 2.2 market, not the tablet market as far as I recall.
I should say there are a couple of apps that the Wifi Xoom doesn't play nice with. Including XDA and Pandora.
I actually have a question about the market, how do I find tablet optimized apps?

Search for honeycomb
Only trouble I have with the market is what I'm assuming everyone else is having. Can't leave comments, can't browse by new released apps, and when browsing for apps, any app you've already installed, it will still say "Install or Purchase".
Is there any way to force install apps from the market. I bought human atlas hd which works on the a500 but when i flashed VP 1.0.8 the market will not show the app. I can go through the market in the broswer and then open it in the market app but when i click install it says cannot find page. I need help because i payed $30 for this app!

I haven't had this problem yet on my tablet, but have with other android. Best solution I can come up with is to go to market and find the app and uninstall it from there... than reinstall it...
I would try that but I am trying to install it first! Its weird because Acer said that human atlas hd works on the a500. I have the Dexter 3.1 leak which means it should be I the market right? But its not there.

https://market.android.com/details?...lt&rdid=com.samsung.remoteTV_TAB&rdot=1&pli=1
Android markets say that it is not compatible with my XOOM?
Is there any there have this app on XOOM and living in europa. Is it posiblet to get the apk file, so I can install it.
The phone version of samsung remote is working, but it do not use the hole screen.
+1 on this. Getting a Samsung smart tv soon and this would be awesome!

sorry for that. I had tried downloading on the Xoom. i tried different browsers and always got an error. downloaded fine on the pc.
I have downloaded the Samsung remote tab(yes not the phone version) on my sgs i9000 made a backup thru titanium backup and transferred to xoom but it does not install what is the problem?
If any wants the file that i have extracted from my sgs here is the link http://www.multiupload.com/ZPR3456G6V
Bump please anybody
Is it just me and my xoom with 3.2 ROM... but I can't browse the market at all.... I'm missing the little arrows after "TOP PAID" etc. This makes browsing the market impossible... I can search and do see the staff pics etc. But cannot browse large categories...anyone else, or do I have to start fiddling with titanium...
Are you rooted? I have the same issue.

Ok it's the same, missing apps. Can't look at all the sub folders. But if you search there still there.

So Google has made the market on tablet unusable in a way.... the new market on my Milestone (Droid) works OK.
It looks that way. I'm gonna dig a little and see what I can find. It may just be a fluke though.

Can not download free apps either.
The solution here and other boards does not work, remove Google Account and clear cached does not work.
It's some kind of linking issue in market. They left out the ability to see the tabs. If you search for an app that will work on the tablet it shows up. I just can't seem to find out why. It is like this on rooted and non-rooted xooms. They maybe working on it or may not even be aware the 3.2 update has this issue.

Helped.... so the broblem truly lies on the market itself
no problems here
I have a stock, not-rooted Xoom on 3.2, and the market is working fine for me. My Market version # is 1.0.28, if that helps anyone.
Edit: by "working fine" I mean not having the problem the OP described--I can access all parts of the market. But all is not well in marketland--I often have issues downloading/installing free apps. The "waiting to install" message will stay on the page while the progress bar grinds for a while. Sometimes things download, sometimes they don't.
So is this a 3.2 issue only? I have the same issue on rooted 3.2 with apps not downloading. I have yet to try paid apps versus free apps. I have only been trying free apps. im going to try a paid app as soon as I get my hands on that f_cker again.... or just say eff it and go back to 3.1... So it also kinda sounds like android wasnt ready for the 3.2 market update. ****ty..
I can download and install free or paid apps, my problem is the lack of good browsing of apps on the market...

It switches as to which has the tab next to it. I sent a report to Google, everyone should too. It worked fine on 3.1.

Same here, the links don't work. This seems to be a problem with European Market. GT10.1 users are also reporting this, so it has nothing to do with Android 3.2 or Xoom. It seems Google has updated European Market, it now includes "Featured for Tablets" section.
So i'm still having this issue. Ive installed Amazon app market and can install any app just fine, paid or not. I'm even back at stock rooted 3.1 versus the custom 3.2 rooted. I started looking into a complete market replacement app that doesnt rely on the market to d/l apps with roughly the same amount of apps, but it doesnt look like there are any. I did however find this, and yes its a repost, but I saw no mention of it here and thought it might be useful to some folks. I can't stand the WP7 look the new market has but whatever if it works then sweet. I have yet to try it but once I get home from work today thats the first thing i'm doing. Here are the links for the the 'WP7' style market that all our android phones got updated to, which also works on tablets:
Here is the XDA thread link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166169 (this one has the apk link)
And the Xoom forums link with reviews:
http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-help/8687-market-issues.html
Try it and post back if it works for any of you as i'll do the same.
ALSO just make sure you use Titanium backup to backup your current Market app before trying this replacment. Just in case.
EDIT:
So more results from research, since I only have my HD2 to work with here I have tried some tricks to revert back to an older version of the android market, it is the same fashion that I will do with my xoom. I have downgraded my market and 'disabled' (really just changed the permissions) the market updater apk to not have it update. I can confirm that it works so that way when I change the market on my xoom I can follow this same process to not have the market auto update and just enjoy xoom sweetness!!
Here is the info & link for reference:

Figured out a way to stop the market from auto updating itself after you uninstall the 'update' to v3. However, I take no responsability if this screws up your phone and more knowlegeable people can feel free to chime in...
1) locate /system/app/MarketUpdater.apk on your android.
2) change the Read, Write, and Execute settings to none (was rw-r--r-- for me)
That should do it. So far, I have not had the market update itself and am able to continue using v2. I used Absolute System [here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.canvs2321.absolute.system&feature=search_result] to undo it, although I am certain there are other pieces of software out there that can modify system files and allow you to look at the data. You DO need a rooted and NAND unlocked phone it says to run the software.
Hope this helps a few ppl.

Just a heads up. As of today My market works OK. Now the little arrows after each category have come back and browsing the market is much easier...
Does anyone here use the Kindle app on the a500 with stock 3.2?
I have an a100 and it came out of the box with 3.2 and kindle app does not work... it just force closes. Now I am getting the update notification on my a500 to update to 3.2... but don't want to if it breaks my kindle app on the a500.
Was an early adopter for the kindle... so even though I don't buy books there anymore I own about 63 books on it I don't want to lose access to on the go. So basically just curious if 3.2 breaks the kindle app or if its something with the a100. Have heard that some honeycomb apps don't do well on the 7" screen.

Mine works fine. I use the Kendall and I am running a rooted Lightspeed 1.0.2 which is based on 3.2.
Hope this helps.
I hadn't installed the Kindle app on my A100 because people said it didn't work. However, with today's Kindle app update, I figured I would install it and give it a shot. I guess the update fixed the problems, because I was able to login, download an archived item, and read a few pages with no FC.
