1. When you need to update an app/game, you don't have to uninstall it.
2. Which rom and lcd density are you using?

Widget lockers policy has always been uninstall then download. Hyperdroid gbx, 160 density

We need a cab for modded froyos that can't get this OTA.

Im running stock Froyo FRG83D and have not received the updated market.
What version does your market show as in your application settings?
Market 1.82
Sent from my Nexus One
This is the same as was seen in the Gingerbread video, hmm.. http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/1...i-gets-exposed-in-the-crispest-video-to-date/
I am 83 not 83d. I'm on a cyanogen nightly. Happened after I updated my flash.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Interesting, so it seems this is not related to the 2.12 update that came with FR83D, and somehow they are remotely activating it. I have 1.82 and have not seen the new tab yet.
Is it on all the apps in the market or just some?
All the apps

Mine's 1.82 as well but I'm not seeing any related tab. Will try installing Flash.
Edit : Confirmed, Flash reveals it.
might be related to a restart then I'll try that
Update flash
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Weird, I updated flash earlier on and haven't seen it yet, maybe its just installing any app?
Well just installed epicurious and still no extra tab, will try reinstalling flash.
Was themes under apps menu there before ?
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
My market still doesn't have the similar tab and I see themes so yeah it probably was.
It might be slowly pushed out instead of being tied to the flash update. Or it might be both .
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I had neither Flash nor the similar tab... installed Flash, then I had both. Weird.
Installed Flash, cleared Market cache, rebooted and still nothing. So it must be a slow rollout.

Slow market

Who else finds the new market slow and laggy? I prefer the old one. Is there any way to go back to the old one without changing roms?

Market always sucked for me.. takes forever to load, and displays a blank page most of the time... complete garbage.
Go to manage applications, select the market app and select uninstall updates .

I've done that but I still have the same market

in addition to the uninstalling of the updates, you should also to block the market updater (with apps like titanium backup). if not, your market will update itself everytime.
Is there any other way to get the old market back because uninstalling the updates is still the same market.

as I said, you have to block the market updater.
Can't say I've had any problems.
Market just updated again to v.3.1.5 on KG3. No lag for me.

It seems to be worse for me lately, although given that I seem to change ROMs every other day, maybe I just haven't noticed it so much before. But often I too get a blank page when trying to install apps, or otherwise have general unresponsiveness. I'm not sure if it really makes a difference, but perhaps try clearing the data for the market app? However, I've basically resorted to doing push installations from the market at the Android website, seems to be the only reliable way to install apps for me lately
It's slow for loading the pics (which is pretty much the entire thing), but once those load, it's fast and responsive for me. I as well prefer the old one.
For those who can't use the "uninstall updates" to roll back their market version to 2.x.x you can try this:

Lost Phone

I lost my phone. I tried installing Plan B but haven't gotten a response just yet. Does anyone know if WaveSecure will install remotely? Also, I noticed a feature in the GPS settings that says locate phone when lost or something to that effect. I have ICS beta 7.0 installed fyi. How would I go about using the service?

I know you can find the device with latitude. I don't know how though. You will have to Google that. That's the reason I have where's my Droid app installed. It already saved me twice. One of the best apps ever.

Android Market - Can't Buy Software - Says I already bought it

I was trying to download Facedroid - Purchase it - and it said I already purchased it and won't install. I went to applications and uninstalled the updates for the market but no go. I did read through some of the posts on similar topics here but didn't seem applicable. Any ideas??

Which ROM are you on? maybe you can clear caches and give it another shot ......
Just a thought... are you using go launcher? They recently fixed a problem where icons were not showing up for installed apps. My thinking here is its already installed but you just can't see it.
If this its the case, install the update for go launcher. goto settings and manage apps and uninstall the program you're wanting. then go back to the market and get it again and it wont hide from you anymore.
I'm probably a mile off base, so onto the next suggestion if I am.
If you can read this it was sent using my GT-P7510.
I'm running stock OS. No changes. I am running ADW though. I went and cleared cache and removed updates for the Market. Odd....it says I purchased it even on the internet linked site so that leads me to believe it's my profile with Google.
Funny enough...I don't mind trying apps, but if I want it, I'll buy it. I wanted this app and was trying to pay for it and Puff the Magic Dragon showed up!! No app for you, come back...one year!
Try closing ADW and see if it shows up in the stock app drawer.
Did you remove your credit/debit card off your google wallet/checkout account? I did that once and had the same problem. Once i added and verified my mastercard, i was able to download again.
same problem here, (even) the (web) market thinks I've already bought the app and I can't buy it anymore
Im havimg the same problem. I cant purchase swiftkey, says on the apps page i purchased it, but when i click install it says i didnt purchase the app.
Many people are posting they have the same problem, but nobody is saying if they have tried the suggested fixes or not. ???

I'm not, and can't buy apps either... Running Calkulin's latest.

Running gt14, stock launcher. Tried everything but reflashing with full wipe
I had this a while ago. Think I logged onto web market and said install via there and that sorted it.

Thanks for the new suggestion. Would hate to see others resort to a full wipe and even if not work.

The Opposite
I get the opposite, Market tells me I purchased an app correctly then tells me when I ask to install it that I did not purchase it, lol
What a joke Market is
Got a reply from the android market people they said it's a known problem for some apps and are working on it

Thanks for a definitive answer. Not a fix for now but at least one hope.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium HD app
I'm actually having the same issue, but it's with downloading ADWLauncher EX itself. The market website thinks I've purchased it, but I haven't. I sideloaded ADW first, to see how well it works. Deleted it, tried to purchase it, not working. Cleared cache, uninstalled, reinstalled, rebooted, everything. It has to be an issue with the market itself. So, yeah. Just a small confirmation.

Facebook is incompatible

I recently reinstated my Facebook and the app was still in my phone, for I had used it plenty before, but when I went to log in after reactivating my account after a few months, it didn't work. I deleted the app and proceeded to the market to reinstall, but now it says my device is incompatible. Also, premium XDa forum app is also "incompatible". I have been playing around with build.prop tweaks but nothing really major, but I cannot figure out how to fix this.

This is the problem. Either restore the original build.prop or install the unlocked Market app will solve it.
I installed market unlocker and tried all of the English market s and a German one to download a few apps that cone up incompatible (Facebook, ROM toolbox, app brain market) but it still continued. I have already tried resetting LCD density, but a seeing reset if there is one for ROM toolbox.
