It would seem that it does. I just grabbed the update for Google Maps and before the update started, the EULA for the Market popped up. I didn't see any visible changes before I exited though.
EDIT: sorry, looks like the update I got was to 3.3.11

I tried it and it wont install. Im not rooted but I dont think that has anything to do with it.

Like how?
+10

working on my rooted transformer no problems.

Works here too (rooted). In landscape mode it shows bars on each side.
Did you uncheck Unknown sources in Settings Applications?

im guessing its the phone version of the market judging by the black borders as opposed to the tablet version.

You don't need to install it, just move the apk to /system/app (the name should be vending.apk).
Edit: don't forget to set the correct permissions and clear market data in Settings > Applications > All

I got the "new market" a coule weeks ago as an automatic update? and I have to say its SHIIIIT :S
Why did they change the tablet versio? the market it came with was perfect?

I agree, the previous version was much better. Now it's loading for ages and is really more for phones than tablets.

I am now in v3.3.11, and the market is really faster !
I drop down from 10s to 1s to show any page in this new version !
Much better ! It was really annoying !

guys i installed the new market but i dont like it.how i can revert it back to the previous version?i have revolver 3.9.5 rom!!thx.

Auto updated for me today. Seems to be working well so far

Google had quite some issus with the performance on market .. i've experienced many outdated infos on my app-statistics.
At the moment it seems to be fixed .. but they have some translation issues right in the developer-pages .. whatever - nothing neckbreaking ;-)

They even removed the charts for a while because they were showing huge (really huge) drops in most applications (even the most popular ones). Charts are OK now, but installs in developer panel are still much off I think (they show different values than the charts and they doesn't seem to update - or maybe my apps are so unpopular, haha).
All this said I think it's not releated to the slow market application. It should be managed by different servers.

I've been using the 3.3.12 version because I wanted the music stuff that wasn't in .11 and I'm very happy with that version. I know I found it here on XDA by using the search function.

So it is - downloading now. No auto notification, but checking manually for the OTA worked.

Doesn't seem to be available to N8010 yet - I live in hope it will come soon.

The problem is that i cant root my note anymore

One new feature - the input mode can now be auto-switched to handwriting when the pen is removed. This exists on my Note 2 but couldn't find it on the 10.1 previously.

My OTA Update is downloading now.
Will update with more info if I find any new differences (bug fixes? faster/smoother? maybe..).
Thanks, anyways

Instal on Tab from other Region
Hi all,
I have a galaxy note with details as below and was wondering if I could install this on it. I Installed Jb from another region on my UK purchased Tab 2 and it works just fine.
Any advice will be appreciated.

What I have found so far
From 4.1 to 4.2
So far I have found:
Bugfix for Facebook not showing on stock browser
Chrome, Gmail, Facebook, YouTube and more added to the multiwindow bar
Fixed crash for Samsung keyboard as well as improvements such as a tab to move the floating keyboard.
Smoother scrolling
S Note is improved, with no loss of high res photos when put in, Bugfix for knowledge search so it doesn't just take you to Google and the Idea Sketch function from the Note 2 is now integrated.
Still exploring.

Just to be pedantic - it's 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 - the jump to 4.2 (when it comes) will be more extensive. I hope.

[Q] Annoying pop-up to download gaming app?? Malware or a a new updated??

Since yesterday, I have been getting annoying popups (maybe its malware or soemthing else) on my phone to download games...when i click on it...it takes me to the random game apps on the play store. I am attaching screenshots for some more explanations.
Has anyone else experienced it before? Is this some kind of bug or just a new feature in the update?
THanks.

its caused by an app that you installed. find the app, disable notifications for that app in the phones app settings.

You might be able to use airpush detector to help determine the app that's causing the push adds.

If you are rooted, install adlocker and it will go away. If you are not rooted, then follow what other people have written

Its definitely airpush ad.
Its just an ad. No virus or malware in this, it just get a really annoying.
What I would do since you're not rooted, is uninstall apps one by one until you see which one it it.
Its a hassle but its the only way with out root if air push detector isn't picking it up.

I've seen people posting about it crashing, Not had it myself (yet?) - what firmware are you using? - Tried clearing cache/data etc?

Crashed on both mj1 and MJ7...
MJ7 is much worse though.. Can barely flip one page before it crashes

Yes, same here.
Never faced this issue with my previous phones.
Most fastest way to trigger it is to launch it and click on any news / tab right away.
If you launch it, and wait for awhile before clicking on anything, it should work properly, but it is quite irritating.
It is the same from mj1 to mj7.

I decided to get my news elsewhere.. -.-

My old phone did it all the time. Note 3 has been rock solid so far

I face crashes when I open Flipboard using the widget. (Nd this started the update to MJ7 I think)
When i directly launch it from the app drawer, no issues seen so far.

SM G900H Crashing

Hi guys,
I have been a silent follower but now I really need your help to get out of this mess.
Bought an s5 SM G900H on 23rd apr(India), since the very first day noticed a strange issue that when listening to songs for a long time, say an hour at a stretch the music app just crashes and then when I check my running applications all of them show restarting without actually restarting the services.
After this the phones response becomes pathetic and every app crashes the moment I start them. I have to reboot the device to get it working again. What seems to be the issue?
Only happening when I listen to music for quite some time.It seems the phone is just not able to free enough ram as ram usage peaks and no amount of killing all apps frees any ram.
Should I not get a replacement phone? Samsung svc people were telling me they'll update the software and then see, but then my DOA period would be over. I am regretting my decision to buy the phone.
Help guys!
Ps: Checked with kies and on sammobile, I am already running on the latest build. G900HXXU1ANCI

You thought to restore the factory

Already did that buddy. It did not help. Anyone who has a solution. It is frustraing to restart your device every hour or so.

Does this happen with the Samsung Music app or also with Play Music? I use Play Music all the time and didn't had any issues yet. *knock on wood*

Got my device replaced and its still giving me the same issue. So to conclude it, there is some bug with samsungs music player as this doesn't happen with play music app. Don't worry bro it'll be patched in an update soon and a g3 may also have certain bugs at launch. All this is a part of new device hitiing the market, bugs are to expected.
BTW is yours an exynos model or snapdragon? Mine is exynos.

hi buddy! im glad i am not the only one xD I thought i had a defective device.
and for g900H, it is the international model of exynos chipset. g900F is the international model of snapdragon 801.
I thought this was a hardware issue. I hope they can do something about this. Samsung plz
Have you also seen a rare issue that your power button stops working? like if the button doesnt work. I think this may have been a problem related to greenify without root. Im scared to try it again so, if anything happens, you guys should know. xD uninstall greenify and restart.

Hi Mate,
The thing that surprises me is how an issue or a bug like this escaped the samsung testing team.
The power button at times becomes unresponsive if the services are stuck at restarting. Not just that the whole phone starts acting weird, my finger print scanner won't work intermittently and every app crashing, the homescreen resetting etc. I spoke to Samsung Head Office here in India and they asked me to send a detailed mail about the issue. I have done that. Now the best we can do is wait for them to release a fix.

Reboot once and then use google play music app for your music. No issues whatsoever. I have in fact hidden the samsung music app.

Yeap, thanks, I just downloaded it and looks like it crashed but lets see what happens if I listen to music for 1+ hour- I will report back.

Interesting, same use case in a G900H:
If wouldn’t be a Samsung phone without the occasional crashes and sadly, the S5 is no stranger to this. Despite being on KitKat 4.4.2, the S5 will lag intermittently and at times crawl to a halt, forcing you to restart the phone. We noticed this couple of times when listening to music. The song would just pause itself and OS would simply stop responding.
