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!

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.

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.

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?
I haven't seen this particular problem discussed yet, so here goes. Prior to the B&N 1.2 update, I was running B&N 1.1 with the AutoNooter. I had no particular problem using the Market. After cleaning everything back to stock B&N 1.1, I updated to 1.2 and rooted with MN 4.5.6. After doing the Market visibility fix, the downloads shown in the Market did not include any of my freeware downloads, but did include all but one of my paid downloads. In any event, I was able to recover everything but the one paid download, something called Ibird Pro. Some things (News and Weather) did not work as they had before, but most were fine. When I try searching for Ibird Pro (or Ibird Lite for that matter), the Market would not return the program. When I visit the Android Market on my PC, "My Account" shows the program, but won't let me download it because it insists that "This item is not compatible with your device." The Market Help advice is that the app is incompatible either with my screen size or Android version. Well, it was compatible before the B&N update and MN 4.5.6, and Android is now supposed to be 2.2. It seems like this is an issue of the NOOKColor reporting the wrong OS or wrong hardware info to the Market. Any help would be appreciated. (I have tried MN 4.5.18 and .25, after wiping back to a clean B&N 1.2, but they give me flakier results with the Market than 4.5.6.). If this has been discussed, can somebody point me to the thread. Thanks.
Sorry if this seems a silly question, but you don't mention what fixes you have tried other than the market fix in the MN OP. Have you tried any of the other fixes mentioned in the thread itself?
I had a few missing apps, not the amount you seem to be reporting, but others had more and reported that clearing market data and cache, then renaming vending.apk to somethinbg like vending.apk.OLD, reboot, rename back to vending.apk, reboot again, worked to fix the visibility. Worked for me too and no problems since. This was for MN 4.5.25, and can be found somewhere around pg 96 of the MN thread in the dev subforum.
As for the incompatible app message, there are a couple fixes depending. Some have had to go into nook color tools and uncheck 'allow non-market apps', reboot, recheck it, reboot,and it should be fine. This seems to work even for some apps you get from the market but don' t install with the same message you received.
Using a different app to install also works for many. I had to use color tools for one, root explorer for two others which would not install. I copied them from another device onto an sd card, then copied into the correct folders in my nook before installing. Adb is another option to install problem aps.
After doing the market visibility fix, all of the apps, except Ibird Pro, that were still missing form "my downloads" were free ones. That was not a big problem. I just had to look them up and install them again. After I did that, they were back in "my downloads" again. The problem with Ibird Pro appears to be that the Market thinks it won't run on my Nook, so it doesn't show it on the Nook. As I explained, the Market on PC Browser won't send it to the Nook because it claims it is not compatible. I tried several of the fixes mentioned in the developers thread, including renaming vending.apk, etc., but nothing worked. After reading your post I tried unchecking "allow market apps, rebooting, etc." also without any luck. My hope is that this is a different issue than those fixes address. (I can't post in the developers forum because I'm considered a newby here.) It seems like the Nook is simply reporting the wrong hardware or OS to the Market. There could be a simple solution to this, like finding and modifying a text file somewhere in the system. If I were a betting man, I'd bet this is an issue with the B&N 1.2 update, rather than the MN files.
Yeah the post restriction is kinda painful. I only registered to be able to thank those whose work I used and post my experiences w/ .25 as there have been some interesting differences in how the update has been affecting users, and more data can help poinpoint why. Still, I understand why it's there.
I missed that the unsupported message was on your pc, sorry. I think the issue is MN from what you said though. I may be mixing up the large amount of info I've been absorbing recently, but there was a signature issue with the new market or something like that, and I believe I read part of the fix was to change the device the market sees the nook as.
I could be way off, but I remember reading something to that effect in the mn thread. I'm still very new to anroid roms, this is the first I've gotten to play with. =) But this could be exactly your problem.
Hello!
It's my first post so I hope everything I write here is in correct place. I wanna add that I was searching for similar threads so I think I didn't miss anything. My problem is that:
I registred at Market with my old GMAIL account, and I can download any free apps but when I wanna buy something and I press to buy for example 0.69p button I see next page and instantly message appears that: "Error has occured, please try again." I tried through my PC, I went to market and buy something, I add card etc everything happen correctly I even have my application on phone without doing anything, but still after many reboots the problem isn't solved. I have to add that I live in UK and installed CM7 today so maybe I have to update something or so. (Tried restart.)
Thank you kindly,
Rec.

are you using the new market/ what lcd_density are you using?
Well I don't even know how to update Android Market, and I just use one provided with software after installation. I downloaded from Market LCD Density for Root app and when I run It I see that default is 240, so I think this is my density, otherwise I don't know how to check it if it's wrong.
Thanks.
Edit:
Sorry I am blind I didn't provide information of ROM, it's: TyphooN CyanogenMod 7 Nightly v3.7.3[2.3.7][A2SD][tytung r12.4v3]
use market 3.1.5. I have also this issue after using market 3.2
Can I ask how to do it ? Since I found 3.1.5 apk file but it is impossible to overwrite it or even remove higher version of market. I don't know if it matters but when I try to install for example themes etc through clockwork I also have this issue:
Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.
It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the ClockworkMod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.
Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages.

Hope it is also important.
Thank you!

I'm assuming that many people do have market working on the Typhoon build, and therefore there must be something wrong with my set up....
if everyone had to downgrade market surely the typhoon thread would be loaded with comments on it!
So I'm tempted to just go for a full blank and reinstall...task 29, reinstall CWM clear out caches and dalvik cache from CWM, reinstalled Typhoon and see....
trouble is I'm not sure if that really clears everything, and might make it work....so some advice on getting it right would be appreciated.....as it takes time to get it all set up again, as I'd assume best not to use any backed up info/data/settings from Nandroid or titaniam in case what ever is causing the problem gets restored......
Cheers again for any advice
K
So I have tried clearing caches from ROM manager, CWM, rebooting....
I can see this question asked in the Typhoon thread, at least twice with no answer (I can't yet post there).
BTW I can buy Apps from Market on the PC and it sucesfully installs on the HD2...so I think my accounts stuff is all fine.
So I guess the info I'm looking for if a specific fix is not known is "how to do a real and total wipe" - I'm confused by what Task29 does, and what I need to do to "blank" the SD card.....which I assume I should also do?
Any hints/steps?
or even any idea of if a total blank will help?

I wrote this on another thread I created.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20370071#post20370071
Hello all okay so I have another issue I ran into with Tytung's ICS ROM for the HD2.
When I go into the Marketplace I am able to download free apps and/or apps I have previously purchased but when I go to purchase a new app I get the error: "An error occurred. Please try again". I am able to purchase it online and it will send to the phone and download, I am able to purchase apps on my Motorola Defy running CM7, I have even tried wiping the the phone data & cache and wiping dalvic and re-installing but this still didn't work. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Hope you can help.
I had this same issue with Tytungs Nexus ROM, but I also had other issues where software switches would be changed e.g. mobile data etc.
When the latest update arrived I decided to do a fresh install, task29, radio, MAGLDR, format SD, the works.
Now the market purchase works perfectly, it was probably one crummy corrupt bit somewhere in the phone but couldn't find it.
hi guys, as the title says...
I have cleared cache and data,
tried deleting my account and adding it again
reflashed my rom (taboonay 3.01.)
As soon as hit purchase I get "an error occurred. Please try again".
I can purchase via my phone and pc with no probs but not on my tab. Free apps are fine its just the paid ones, oh, and the in game apps wont either.
My next step is to factory reset but hoping someone may be able to help before having to go down that route.
ps I tried using my tabs browser to get to the webstore and successfully made a purchase - yay!! unfortunately it failed to download and the market shows no evidence of me having purchased it -boo!!. Emailed for a refund which i rec'd - phew!!
Which error code have you been receiving?
I know there have been issues with the market for a while now, and a lot of it is on google's side.
I had that on 3.2, same error.
What I did, was delete the current vending.apk
Copy in a different Market.apk, renamed it to vending.apk
Checked permissions to make sure they were the same as all other files in the same directory.
Then, go to App Manager, and delete the caches for the Market app.
Reboot, then do the sign in thing again for the market. It will eventually update itself. Should be good to go.
No error code is given, just what I posted "an error occurred. Please try again" as soon as I hit "Accept and Download".
I emailed googleplay support who inferred that my custom rom was at fault,typical support answer!! no-one else running taboonay seem to have issues so will wait a few days and try a full wipe an' format.
@moscow - thanks will try your suggestion first moscow, cheers
edit: seems there are some peeps psoting the same issue in the taboonay thread - i should have begun reading the newer posts, rather than older ones first...
new googleplay update 3.5.15
apparently there has been an update to googleplay i don't know when and not sure which version i currently running - not until i get home anyway.
i got the apk from droid-life if anyone wants it
I'm getting the same errors . Anyone have any ideas?
Tried moscows suggestion but no joy
So, factory reset, full wipe and full format and still no joy...
fixed...sorta
k, i just restored an icylicious backup and success!!! Heaven knows why it wont work on taboonay for some of us - anyways, if anyone comes up with a proper solution pls feel free to post it...
Did you try to download a free app first and then a payed one ?
I never had market problems and I flash almost every day clean install for testing.
I would suggest to keep trying and first a free app.
I added the phonesky.apk (original acer vending app) ,
First remove the playstore or vending app (depending on what it is called) in system/app with file manager with root.
Then copy / paste the phonesky.apk in that system/app folder and reboot but make sure before you do this all to clear cache and data of market app in settings apps.

Yes, that is an option, Are u on taboonay? -I tried the webstore but it gives me 9 or 10 different devices for my one and only tab!! I picked one and tho the purchase went thru fine - it never downloaded to tab so dunno where it ended up. Becoz it never actually got to my tab, I never got the refund option - had to email support for that, so i figure its easier to switch roms
Something that seemed to work for me
EDIT: It was crazy just tried to buy xda app and failed...... Ignore the rest of this post!!!
It might sound a bit crazy, but after doing a full format have you tried installing a HC ROM and making a purchase / downloading something free, then installing Tabooney 3.0.1 again? I had a ROM that was causing me the same issues + many others with certain apps I use alot, so I scrapped ICS for a month or so and used a couple of other ROMS (all HC) then tried Tabooney again. Amazingly it worked and purchases went through... Maybe not 'everythnig' is fully cleared out and installing a HC ROM killed the issue?? Not too sure, but I no longer have purchasing issues on my Desire HD or A500 with ICS... Just rage face when apps crash and playstore shuts and random stuff stops responding for a few seconds! (just removed ICS from my A500 after the GPS once again started teleporting me into fields and other roads from what i was on again... dam I want to be able to have a solid ICS ROM )
Anyways hope that helps someone

I am on Taboonay. When you pull the drop down menu for the devices, there should be a date you used it last next to each. I think there used to be a way to remove old device names from the list but I can't recall where or how right now.

k, i used the latest date and tried to install a previously purchased app, got the "will be d/l to your device shortly" after 30 mins I'm still waiting...
one thing I've noticed, I d/l a couple of free apps from the playstore on my tab. They are installed. The webstore however, shows them in 'My Apps' but to install only - therefore, they are not installed according to the webstore. So, I'm thinking perhaps the devices that are showing are ones that I have registered thru acer when I have intalled a new rom??? does that make sense - I know what I'm trying to say just not sure its comin out right, lol.
If i download apps in the market/playstore but the webstore don't see them as installed AND trying to d/l from the webstore to a "device" leaves me waiting, waiting, waiting. Then the webstore is not seeing the current "device" that I'm using??? Maybe becoz its not registered???? If u r on taboonay could u check to see if this is the case for you???
EDIT: I went to acer to register. Entered my SNID and it tells me it is INVALID...the plot thickens....

I tried the lightspeed rom last nite seemed to work well, i can purchase apps with it anyway!! I haven't suffered the SOD issue with this or icylicious or even taboonay so I guess I can be thankful for that at least...
Actually, after thinking about this, the latest date that shows might be the one you chose in the online store before, the one that didn't work. Try this- go into the google play app and Install a free app. Doesn't matter which one. Then, go to the online store and see if the name of the latest used device is any different. Mine is called Acer A500 by the store, if that helps.
I have a different issue.. I have rooted my A501, flashes moscow's alexandria rom, activated market enabler but still no luck in buying paid apps.. "The item you were attempting to purchase could not be found"

Hello,
Since the android 10 update came my keyboard is auto correcting all the time.
Yes, I know how to disable auto correct and that's not what I'm asking. I need a fix for this as it's software related and I don't want another keyboard to install I want the stock one to work as it should.
My girlfriend and brother both have the same phone and same update and it's working fine for them. Something messed up on my phone and I don't want to factory reset or to re-image the android.
I couldn't find in the apps to remove it or reinstall or stop. I had an Xperia in the past and there I could just remove and install it from the apps. Would you please advise on this one how I could reinstall the Samsung keyboard?
Also not sure if it's update related, the device is performing poorly after it, It's slower and even not responding for 1 second sometimes.
The phone is Samsung galaxy s10+
Thank you for your time and I hope we find a solution here as I googled and couldn't find anything useful except how to disable the auto correct in the keyboard options which is not working for me as explained above.
Best regards,

Hello,
Since the android 10 update came my keyboard is auto correcting all the time.
Yes, I know how to disable auto correct and that's not what I'm asking. I need a fix for this as it's software related and I don't want another keyboard to install I want the stock one to work as it should.
My girlfriend and brother both have the same phone and same update and it's working fine for them. Something messed up on my phone and I don't want to factory reset or to re-image the android.
I couldn't find in the apps to remove it or reinstall or stop. I had an Xperia in the past and there I could just remove and install it from the apps. Would you please advise on this one how I could reinstall the Samsung keyboard?

If you can use adb the package is ... com.sec.android.inputmethod
Adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.sec.android.inputmethod
You may want to temporarily install gboard or something before so you have at least a keyboard to use.
Reinstall:-
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.sec.android.inputmethod
Or from apkmirror
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...-keyboard/samsung-keyboard-3-5-41-15-release/
I hope this works for you.
Edit: There is a later version on apkmirror but my version is the one above and im running A10 Feb update. I dont know if the later version would install.
Hey thanks for the reply, I downloaded from that link but it says can't be installed, not sure what it's blocking as I enabled from unknown sources.

I think its because it still thinks it's a system app.
The only other was is the ADB method. If you clear data and cache before removing? Not sure if that's gonna do anything. Im just concerned if uninstalling then reinstalling via existing package will still leave the same problem your having.
Edit: Does it say can't install after you remove the package with ADB?
I wanted to install it too from apkmirror but it wouldn't work unfortunately, I don't know why seems like it have to be flashed or something
To add, today was a new update. I updated my android and maybe thought it will fix it. Still the same sadly.
Also I found it in the samsung apps, it had an update so I updated the Samsung keyboard and still the same problem. I also removed all data from it when you go to the options from the keyboard. Also made it back to factory, still the same. Each android phone different problem, getting sick of technology. Sony had plenty of problems too
