Hello all,
The FULL Market is now online! Just open up your browser on your tablet and go to https://market.android.com/ (don't forget the s in https) Then sign in and you'll be able to download and install any app from the Market! (I have done several searches for apps that usually don't show up and they were all there!)
While on a PC, you can't download to the PC, but you can browse the Market on the PC and click install and some how Google finds your tablet and installs it.
Tesla
Edit: I just noticed it does a compatibility check, so maybe not all apps. I believe you have to have the Market installed on your tablet.
yeah its pretty good. although it has a rather striking simularity to Appbrain. I hope that google bought into their product and integrated it rather than pretty much rip it off.

But what is nice about Google's is that almost all the apps are downloadable.. even the ones that don't show up in the Market app. With AppBrain and AndroidZoom, if the app didn't show up in the Market app, then it wouldn't download.
It looks the same as the Google Market App.. I don't think they ripped it off.. unless the new Market was based on AppBrain??
Where does it download the apk to? I tried installing an app via the web Market in Dolphin HD. The downloading symbol appeared in the notification bar for a few seconds, then disappeared, and that's it. Nothing else, and can't find a downloaded apk anywhere... It did a compatibility check before downloading, and my archos came up in the list of devices I could install to...
@fisha21
After you have found downloading symbol then open Market app. It will install app for you.

D'OH! And thank you
has anyone else noticed that the google market website has suddenly stopped listing their archos even though it listed it previously?
It still shows my HTC Desire when I go to my market account in the top right and click on the settings tab, but no longer lists my archos 101? (I am logged into the archos using the same google account).
it used to list it but with some details missing from certain fields.
I have gappsforarchos v4 Market installed, and the archos is rooted with archangel v2, (I have tried 'market enabler' but it made no difference.)
I dont know if its relevant, but I re-did the market fix (where you delete the market cache etc) the other day, maybe this effected it?
My Archos 101 showed up last night and I just checked now and its still there.
Don't know what you did!

Yes I've had my device show up one day and disappear after the market fix.
did you ever manage to get it to show again?

It showed after the market did an automatic update. But when I fixed the market again that was needed after the upgrade it disappeared again.
I managed to get it back when I did an uninstall upgraded version in the apps management.
Anyway I hate the market website it can't even show what apps are installed it will show apps that where installed even when they where removed afterwards. I rather use appsbrain that site seems to be stable and you can manage your own devices/lists.
My online market was able to see my A70 up until this morning when i installed the new firmware. I did the market fix 5 times, but it doesn't seem to be working. And now I can't even install from the web market.
Anyone know a solution. Is there a new market fix that works better?
Umm I know it's recommended to actually go to the new market site (including the "s") but is there a .apk for it instead?? I'm just asking if anyone knows of a new .apk for it cuz for me it would be simpler.
Side question: Is this "new" Full Google Market site the newly updated gApps V5 or is it more like a new V6? I have aApps V5 and all of a sudden I noticed a few days ago the whole look of the Google Market when I click on my Market Apps icon was a little different. The area near the search bar at the top changed from all green and white-to all gray with a different font. This new look of the Google Marketplace is what I see when I click on my Market App icon, not the website.
techfrom10 got access to a test version of Market and downloaded some Google apps which apparently are test versions also.
Please see which apk works fine for you. As for me, only the camera is ok! LOL
What is working:
-Other users report Camera is OK (including me). FC when switching to video and viewing preview.
-Other users report Music is working fine for them.
-Clock widget is ok. Honeycomb style But only the widget. if you open it, FC!
*I checked the details of the apks: target version is 11, meaning those are for Honeycomb.
Maybe FCs are caused by missing or incompatible libraries.
Thanks to techfrom10!
im on dark v10 rc3 and i cant get clock, gallery, music to work. Camera and market work fine though, do i need to uninstall the old clock gallery and music to get it working?

Nope you do not need to. Somehow other apks work on other ROM versions of SGS. Mine which is running stock XXJVK only has camera working ok.
I hope others will test these and see which apks work for any ROM, may it be stock or custom, and maybe devs here could find out why it works or not.
Running Darkys 9.3 Music works fine, have not tested the others yet.
i got gingerbread.xxjvk, camera works until i change to video, everything else force closes.

Same as mine. As confirmed, these apps are for Honeycomb F/W only. It only goes to show that Google is about to release its proprietary apps for Honeycomb, with new Market interface
I'd be interested to know if there has been any updates to the Google News Weather widget app (genie.apk). I've got version 1.2.02 (RC2(PROD) according to the settings page in the widget, but i've had this since Eclair 2.1 and it was taken out of a Cyanogen ROM for the Nexus.
Now on 2.2.1 and the widget seems to still work, but sometime the offline caching doesn't work as well as it used to on 2.2.
Anyone got a new version of the genie.apk?

Apparently techfrom10 did not see or download it in the test Market. I think Google already abandoned that app as it is not even pre-installed on Nexus S.
Let us just hope that come Honeycomb release, a new better version of geniewidget will also come out. For now it is just MIA for that app.
none of them work on js8
i had music player and it worked fine on js8. and on xxjvk, the camera worked for me. no video, just photo.
thanks i will try...
Thanks for testing guys! I hope some devs could figure out how to fix or circumvent the FCs so we could use it on our phone
Though I am not that hopeful since the source code for those apps is not yet released. Besides any missing libraries, coming from Honeycomb, would be difficult to fix.
On stock JVK,
music, gallery, clock FC on open.
Camera FC when switching to video mode.

Is there an APK out there that works for Nook Color? I am not sure why the App doesn't work. I am running CM 7.1.
4shared.net should have it. Just search draw something.apk
I only recommended you do it for an app that is FREE on the market, that you can't obtain otherwise, because I do not encourage piracy
The version I downloaded from the android market works perfectly well for me.
Same here; I just downloaded it from the market (I guess it's called Google Play now?)

Is your screen density set @ 160?
I figured it would be a good time to start a list of apps that work with the Kindle Fire HD after root:
Deadspace: Runs GREAT!
Google Movies: RUns great and signs in/syncs after installing from System/app folder
Youtube: Works perfectly after installing from system/app folder
Shadowgun: Runs fine but is upside down, FIX: Use screenlock and it works peachy.
Osmos: Same as Shadowgun
Wings of Glory: Works fluidly.
Google Music: Syncs and works flawlessly. NOTE: Not quite there. Shutting down requires a re-install for it to work again. Looking into this.
Google Books: Works great
Antutu: Runs fine, but again, the G-sensor seems to affect the orientation when running GPU tests.
N64oid: Runs GREAT!
FPSa: Runs great as well
More to come...
Ive been able to get quite a few apps to work as well. Some required google maps files in order to work. So I took 2 files from my EVO 3D. The files I used are "com.google.android.maps.jar", which goes in system/ framework. And "com.google.android.maps.xml" which goes in etc/ permissions. This allowed me to sideload and run the CVS, Best Buy, Best Buy Reward Zone, and Best Buy game trade apps. I had to manually enter in my location. But they now work.
Other apps Ive gotten to work are:
Facebook, Fandango, Busy Box, cache cleaner, Dead Trigger, Drop Box, Gmail, Quick Boot, Root Browser, and Titanium.
Has anyone got WatchESPN app to work? If that's working then i will upgrade from my original kindle fire.

This is a HUGE news in my opinion. Official support for Google Play/Google Apps coming to Nook HD and HD+ soon
Barnes & Noble's press release
http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20130502006907/en/Barnes-Noble-Announces-Google-Play™-NOOK®-HD
Engadget's Hands On video of the new support.
http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/03/...nd-nobles-nook-hd-and-hd-we-go-han/#continued
They say it will be rolling out Over-The-Air and provide access to other Google Apps such as GMail, Maps and Chrome (which is now apparently the new default browser)
I personally can't be more excited for this even though I've been running rooted OS and CM10 SD side by side ever since they became available.
Being able to access Google Play and having official support for many more apps will make HD/HD+ just that much more accessible and usable imo.
Now if only we could the the stock multitasking interface too....
UPDATE: New version number is Version 2.1.0, and you can manually download the update file from Barnes & Noble's website
Just select the Software Update link for the corresponding device and follow the instructions. (You just have to put the update file on the root of your Nook's directory)
I have no idea if it closes any of the rooting exploits, but my impression has been that since we got CWM working, we don't really have to worry about not being able to root now. Still please be cautious if you don't want to risk possibly losing the ability to root/downgrade/run custom ROMs. Just wait it out until the wise wizards of the forum figures out exactly what's going on.
That is fantastic news!! Will go and spread it now! Wow!! :good:
can't install downloaded apk apps...fail once again by B&N
I can confirm that keyboard and launchers downloaded from Play Store works as well as they did with previous "manual" installations.
There are still quite some apps that are just listed as "incompatible" from the Play Store, but having Maps and Chrome running without a fuss is great.
The paper-textured dock has been also been changed in favour of sleeker dark one, (with white icons in place of black ones now) and it seems like "white-on-white" problem is resolved too. (Might have to try out more apps though.)
I can confirm that Universal Root zip still works. Took me a while to straighten out the Play Store though. But it works too, even if you had flashed my gapps zip. May take me a while to test everything to be sure the zips still work.

Just for kicks I unrooted, erased and deregistered before updating to be sure to have absolutley stock setup. And it's working beautifully!
I have installed all my favourite apps with no problem at all.
I seems to me like the general UI is running a bit smoother than before.
And there is widget support in the stock launcher! (Maybe that was tehre before, but I ran ADW Ex right from the start, so I ddn't explore stock that much before.)
Edit: Making one nice discovery after another! Voice search works! And Zinio works as well. I thought maybe they would have found a way to block their competition in the magazine market, but no!

Do you think we will be able to sideload apps and install them through file explorer apps?
Ironically, I bit the bullet and installed the CM 10 Hybrid SD Rom less than 12 hours ago (after using stock root for some time).
Part of me is hoping this configuration has some advantages over the new BN stock but I'd love to hear from people about the advantages/disadvantages of using CM10 vs. the new BN stock so I can make a firm decision about which ROM I'll use daily.
Thanks in advance.

Not right away "out of the box" as it looks. I suspect rooting will be needed to "enable unknown sources", but I'd love to be wrong. Can't test right now though.

This is definitely an improvement: I ditched my other launcher now that I can put non-BN apps and widgets on the homescreen. But I still can't install some of my favorite apps, like Yelp. These and others are listed as incompatible.
What version of Android is the latest stock Nook HD+ running? Is it still on ICS?
That is very cool. I'm not near my Nook now but I hope with this new version it will now show apps loaded from play store in the app drawer as well as in the recent apps?

It may be due to missing hardware features. They have added network location provider to this new release so many apps that need location are now compatible but other missing hardware like GPS or camera may still rule out many apps. GPS location can be added via patch, many apps claim to need it.
Yeah, I noticed the new location features in the update and was hoping that it would make apps like Yelp compatible. You mentioned a patch for GPS?

Yes, it is included in leapinlar's location services rev 1 patch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2062613 it adds android.hardware.location.gps.xml to device hardware features (and with bluetooth gps and Bluetooth GPS app it even works inside apps).
Not sure if Yelp specifically needs GPS though.

I haven't tried new stock yet, but the things that kept me going back to CM10 even after I had stock rooted and Play installed were the ICS/Jellybean recent apps display and the incompatibility of some apps. If they let launchers override the native notification bar, on-screen buttons and recent apps, I'd probably run straight stock.
