Still unable to run the apk. I have a rooted Droid 2 with Liberty and Go Launcher, have gotten the APK and run it from the root directory. It asks for permission, then tries to install. Then "Application not installed." and that's it.
[Android Apps and Games] Tsjoklat:
I dont have s-off so I had to boot to recovery, mount the system, then push the apk to system/app/ and reboot (replacing Vending.apk).

EDIT: I went back to the old market... Doesn't like the new one, any more... -.-

Working great on my Desire with SuperNova.

Thanks for the link!!
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
Wow!

I dunno why, but it works great! :D

Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] lexluthor:
It's that way on http://market.android.com

It's terrible. For example, I just updated espn and it FCs. I can't see if other people are having the same problem. With the old market, you could easily tell.
[Android Apps and Games] JTaylor69:
I this the languages in the description problem has been sorted out now.

Facebook is now not showing Slovakian.
[Android Apps and Games] The0Code:
For some reason, my HTC Hero isn't able to open the package and install the apk....wish I could just flash it or something.
[Android Apps and Games] KnightUK:
Installed and working smoothly, can download Free apps and games, but when i click Buy, it force closes? any ideas on this, ive tried reverting back to the old market but that force closes constantly now - Maybe i shouldnt of installed it lol, running wolfs 2.2 rom SE X10 UK.
[Android Apps and Games] blestsol:
Yeah this sucks..

The market feels cluttered.

And the comments are out of place.

Anyone have the old market?
[Android Apps and Games] scuddnet:
You can uninstall the market and it will revert back.
[Android Apps and Games] mottchew:
Yep. I've gone back as well. Not having the comments listed by date is just plain silly.

Let's hope someone at google are aware of this issue.

... Obviously, having the application descriptions in foreign didn't help either..
[Android Apps and Games] KrisHilbun:
Works great thx
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
Uh.. My phone just installed a market update (from 3.0.26 to 3.0.27)... Testing right now... :D

Native dev language descriptions...

Reply from Google "ah, you are using a custom ROM. That's why. Sorry but we can't help you further" (although it was said politely).

I have not rolled back to stock to test that.
[Android Apps and Games] bgs_piece:
In the past, I have screwed up my market so it would lose memory every time I restarted my phone so I want to make sure that doesn't happen again. If I download this and choose to install, I am given 3 options

1: Uninstall

2: Upgrade

3: Launch

If I choose to "Upgrade", will it place everything where it need be and work like it should?

Thanks in advance for any help!

[Android Apps and Games] wpnyc2009:
no Movies tab with my 3.0.27 apk

Is that the right version?
[Android Apps and Games] fallonjp:
Yeah, this is really bugging me, I would hope this is something that can somehow be fixed. I've taught my wife to always check the comments before updating an app, and now it's pointless. It's only a matter of time now until she borks her phone.

I really hope this gets fixed.
[Android Apps and Games] Greenie-UK:
I do love the new market. for some reason mine looks a lot different to screenshots ive seen on the internets !?

[Android Apps and Games] Isadora:
I'm on stock rom + root and I was getting native dev language descriptions too. Needless to say, I've gone back to the "old" market. I also really dislike the new layout, having to hit menu to get to "my apps", the way these are sorted, etc... In short, I think they've made a right mess of it :p
[Android Apps and Games] Roscopcoletrain:
pretty sure its because if you're outside of the USA, it will be different. Not have the movies & books, and that changes the default screen.
[Android Apps and Games] troutbeck27:
Does anyone have an APK for the old market?

I keep getting a FC for the new market on my rooted D2

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Roscopcoletrain:
Just go to manage applications and uninstall updates on the market.
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
(Side)scrolling is a lot smoother ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
Thats right! When i change my location via "MarketEnabler" i get the Market from Greenie-UK's second screen ;)

EDIT: Oops.. Im sorry for doublepost.. :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] troutbeck27:
Well I think that might be the problem I messed up and deleted my market through Titanium backup so everything relating to my original market is gone.
[Android Apps and Games] Roscopcoletrain:
ahhh, well that would do it :P

did you backup the original market first?
[Android Apps and Games] troutbeck27:
No I didn't that is were I screwed up.

Download Stock ROM or RUU and extract the old vending apk from there ;)
[Android Apps and Games] JTaylor69:
Having issues downloading apps that are around 20Mb in size I.e. Fruit Ninja Free or Air Attack HD.

Says insufficient space even though the free space for system is 1Gb.

Anyone else having this issue?
[Android Apps and Games] LordManhattan:
Yeah, i've had the same problem. I got 1,9GB left on my SD and 900MB left in my internal memory.

Just hit the download button again. Works for me.
[Android Apps and Games] jrxau:
After using the new market for a few days I have gone back to the previous one. The new one is too slow and bloated. If I was looking for form over function I would have an iPhone...
[Android Apps and Games] kennyfool:
Can you tell me exactly how to do this? Im having problems with the market too... :/
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
Im sorry... my fault..

This doesn't work with Stock RUU, if you dont want to install it^^

Download any CustomROM you want an extract vending.apk

I use CoreDroid and Vending.apk can be found here: "\system\app\vending.apk"

I could upload you mine...? But it's CoreDroid-Themed.
[Android Apps and Games] jrxau:

Same here, no Movies tab. For my workaround, I access Market via browser, purchase movies, and watch them with the Googles Videos app (my purchased movies do show up when I open the Videos app). My phone is not rooted, and I'm in the U.S.

I tried nxt's suggestion below to activate the Movies tab, but it did not work for me. Please post if it works for anyone else.
[Android Apps and Games] tonidadon:
this also does not work for me..I unchecked the boxes for the levels and back out, but there is still no book and movie tab :)
[Android Apps and Games] ryaneu:
I encountered an annoying bug.

I can't seem to update single individual app when there is a green update word in my apps.

Strange thing is i can only update the apps when there are 2 or more apps that have updates
[Android Apps and Games] |Rene|:
Hey,

do you also have the problem that all reviews are unsorted? It's very annoying when you read a review from 12 month ago and so on.

[Android Apps and Games] XlAfbk:
they're sorted by votes
[Android Apps and Games] pjjohn73:
Should give us the option to choose how we sort
[Android Apps and Games] anoneemooz:
Just wanna warn you guys about the new market and why you may want to stick around with the 2.3.6 version for a while first.

I tried out the v3+ one for a few days and had several problems. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S by the way

1. Those who had problems BEFORE with the limited cache size of their phones (Galaxy devices and I think some HTC devices had this limitation) which kept them from downloading apps over 30mb..you WILL get this problem again with the new market. Our recent Gingerbread updates fixed this for us with the v2 market, but with v3 the problem is back and you will get "insufficient storage" errors when attempting to download large apps again.

2. Some apps go missing entirely :o like you can't find them anymore on the market..

3. Apps you have purchased before will be shown but some might not have the "download" option on them for some unknown reason.

4. Buying from the Android Market web interface may not work although it will now say "Purchased", you might not receive any email receipt or whatever and the transaction won't be processed (it never shows up on your Google checkout or that of the seller's).

This happened to me twice. When you try to download your newly purchased app from the market, you will just get "download declined". This is not an issue with my credit card since when I switched back to the old market I was able to repurchase and then download properly (though I was never charged in the first place)

---

Don't get me wrong, I do appreciate that Google is moving forward and implementing a lot of new features with the new market version..and it's technically a must if you want to take advantage of Google Books and Videos or whatever but it's all still quite messy..

As many may have criticized..

1. The comment arrangement idea is stupid. A good comment MONTHS ago may not be valid currently and thus should not be pushed to the top just because it was voted that way. The dev team could have very well just pimped the comment up. We'll never know. Also, new comments are vital to read about new bugs or changes which thus warn you about new updates that you may want to avoid for the time being or at least you'll know what to expect. Google should at least make a toggle for how we want comments to be ordered.

2. The interface is choppy at times. Too much going on.. It looks very cluttered. I get what they were trying to go for but..meh.

Some good points?

1. Your apps are now arranged alphabetically instead of by date of purchase/download. You may or may not like this change but I think Google ought to let us toggle this depending on our preferences.

2. Your apps are now divided (freakin finally). Though they are still all on the same page, there are separate headings for apps with updates, apps installed, apps purchased but not installed. I still think they ought to just separate stuff into different panes so we have less scrolling to do to reach the bottom of our list of apps..

3. The interface looks modern? But this is entirely subjective. I personally hate it versus the simple look of v2 which just works and without lags at all too.
[Android Apps and Games] Hatshipuh:
And there I thought the "insufficient storage" error was a problem of my ROM.

When I tried to update several Apps at once and I got the error message, the update does not only abort, the to-be-updated app vanishes entirely from my installed-apps-list.

I went back to the old market after a week since the shortcomings of the new market got me bothered more and more.
[Android Apps and Games] Roscopcoletrain:
thats been the bug thats kept me from using it
[Android Apps and Games] rjax:
So I searched through the thread and was glad to see there was plenty of outrage about the new comment sorting. That alone was enough to convince me to roll back to the old Market.

However, one thing I didn't see mentioned in this thread is a potentially bigger concern. I had a couple apps I was refusing to update because the security permissions had changed for no particularly good reason. Old Market of course was nice enough to display "Update (manual)" for those apps. New Market just displayed "Update" for these apps (the same as for a couple apps with an update that contained no permission changes).

This, in combination with the earlier observation in the thread that you can't easily see the security info until the last screen before install/update, is most unfortunate. I rolled back to Old Market before even thinking to check to see if any new permissions (if applicable) are indicated in that last screen before update... but given how little thought appears to have gone into some of this rollout, I don't have a particularly high confidence level that they got this right.
[Android Apps and Games] |Rene|:
Maybe, but is there any chance to change the order? I want the old way. You must have the newest reviews on the first page.
[Android Apps and Games] hongy:
Sorry if this has been discussed before but I've googled it and searched this thread and I can't find anything. Okay so I installed this market apk when it first came out and encountered updating app errors and therefore went in and uninstalled update,. Now however I want the new market again and well I can't.

When I use astro to install the apk, it gives me the option to Uninstall, Upgrade, and Launch. Hitting uninstall leads to a "unable to uninstall", and launch gives me the 2.XX market. Now my problem is why can't I upgrade? When I hit upgrade it will give me the option to install or cancel, and I can only hit cancel. You can not hit install at all.

I have already checked off install from unkown sources, and this is the 3rd app to do this. Anyone have any idea whats going on? Running on cyanogen nightly 133 for htc desire.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Got the new market now. I think it looks better, but it seems to load the pages and my apps slowly comparing to the old market. Mostly fine though. Could be that the mobile connection takes a while to "connect".
[Android Apps and Games] TheWanky:
I got the OTA of the new market on my N1. However it's now constantly keeping a "low memory" error in my notification bar, and refuses to update apps because of that (despite having 17MB free). Between that and the inability to update a single app, it's really not worth it. How do I revert to the 2.0 Market and block the OTA?
[Android Apps and Games] SubyWill:
I can't wait to get it!
[Android Apps and Games] BenKranged:
How to get?
[Android Apps and Games] Hollow.Droid:
Wasn't the trick to clear data on the market application to get the updated version? Something to try I guess.
[Android Apps and Games] punkmonkey1984:

[Android Apps and Games] CamoGeko:
I hate to put a downer on the situation but I hope you guys realize that Google had only just announced it. They will be rolling it out in the next few weeks, so chances are we won't get our hands on the apk for a few days yet.

[Android Apps and Games] Xenplex:

[Android Apps and Games] XthelordinatorX:
is there already a fix for the market force closing when installing or updating an app?
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
I dont have any FC's with the new market... :rolleyes:

Try to fix permissions in your Recovery if you have a custom ROM installed.. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] XthelordinatorX:
i never did anything like that before..

got a link or something for me showing me how?
[Android Apps and Games] Vulpix:
Is the mysteriously missing "update" button bug fixed yet also? Whenever I see an app with an update beside it, going into the app shows me open and uninstall, no update. WTF?
[Android Apps and Games] jonathaflores:
can we get this in blue+??:D
[Android Apps and Games] luminus:
I went back to the previous version, way to slow, my apps page take ages to load.

Overall much slower, like some say the comments for apps are not sorted by date, an app that had several updates and the first comment is one from months back is useless.

In the first place an app store should work without hickups-fast and clear to find and read about apps. The new app market doesn't fulfill those needs.
[Android Apps and Games] Freekers1337:
Same problem here. How can I prevent the market from updating itself ?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] IceXcube84:
Remove MarketUpdater.apk from system/app and reboot the phone. That will stop the market to update by it self ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Freekers1337:
Great ! I thought it was that .apk, but wasn't sure as that also could have been a sort of module/addon for the Market, which automatically updates other apps, but it isn't. Thanks !
[Android Apps and Games] yumms:
Well the reviews on the new market are now worthless...why can't we sort the reviews by date?

I'm getting reviews from months ago.
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
Shut down your phone -> Remove battery -> insert it again -> Press Power-Button while holding Vol-down

You are in Bootloader (now you can release Vol-down) -> Select "Recovery" with your Volume-buttons -> If selected: Press Power.

Now you see your Recovery (CWM or 4EXT or whatever)

I use 4EXT but i think its the same under ClockworkMod.

I'm sorry, i don't know your phone and setup...

advanced -> fix permissions

(navigate with volume-keys and enter with power button)

If you have any FC's, this is the first thing you can try. It will help in most cases ;)

Or just do it with "Rom Manager" ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
...[Please delete. Double post. I'm sorry]...
[Android Apps and Games] JTaylor69:
Anyone notice something odd on the market?

Clicking it searches for it but yields no results.
[Android Apps and Games] BamAlmighty:
Looks like Google has listened to the complaints!

Reviews are now sorted newest first.
[Android Apps and Games] khaytsus:
The new market seems to show you EVERY app regardless of if its compatible with your device, and at the same time added additional filtering for compatibility.

I have several apps on my Nook Color which work just fine and installed from the market with no problem but the new market won't let me install or update them.

I think I'll go with the remove MarketUpdater trick and remove the update.. Meh.
[Android Apps and Games] XthelordinatorX:
i tried litterally everyting with the fixing permissions but it only gives me more fc's..
[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
More?? :eek:

For me, it worked with every fc...
[Android Apps and Games] Jays2Kings:
Weird all of a sudden, reviews are in chronological order, no update to the my app order, in fact the market is still 3.0.27.
[Android Apps and Games] Jake-CT:
Am-Android-Samsung!?

I saw that too. I also have the feeling that my market is no longer offering updates for any of my apps - does anyone else see that? I saw there was a new version of google+, went to update but my apps aren't showing any updates, then I scrolled down and saw google+ listed as "not installed" (when it was!) so I "re-installed" it to get the update. On rooted KG6 2.3.4 on Galaxy S2 - could be the problem? Also, the market is embarrassingly slow ever since this new version came out where the old one was very fast... suggestions welcome!
[Android Apps and Games] jonny68:
The new market is an absolute disaster, slow and laggy, i have a Galaxy S2 with a custom ROM and everything else is blazing fast but the marlet takes ages to open, bugs galore ive gone back to the older one until Android sort it out.
[Android Apps and Games] f9cator:
App comments are still not sorted by newest on my Desire HD. The web version is also not in newest order. Doesn't make any sense to read comments of an app of previous version when it has already been updated many times.

What is the Google Android team thinking? Maybe they can share their rationale why they want to sort the app comments in other order rather than newest 1st.
[Android Apps and Games] Roscopcoletrain:
I got it pushed to my Nexus S over the weekend. Has no lag, just as fast as the old market. Curious why some seem to have no issues while others do.
[Android Apps and Games] XthelordinatorX:
yes now it also force closes sometime while browsing through the market first it fc'd only when installing or updating apps
[Android Apps and Games] Jake-CT:
Maybe the problems are people who downloaded it early rather than waiting for it to be pushed?
[Android Apps and Games] -juanito-:
the new market so stupid !!! sometimes give me USA UI in market and now it's show me Verzion apps !! without using any apps !! i am in Bahrain
[Android Apps and Games] Jays2Kings:
Well it's the US version, thus why the video section is there, but it could be just you, I wouldn't know since I'm in the US.
[Android Apps and Games] Spl4tt:
well, i still like the new market. but i think im gonna wait till they fixed those bugs..
[Android Apps and Games] BamAlmighty:
I don't know what everyone else's problem is, but I am running the latest 3.0.27 market on my Evo 3D and it runs great for me.

Updates work how they should. Reviews are in the proper newest first order. No lag moving around the UI. And carrier billing works.
[Android Apps and Games] bmancell:
Is 3.0.27 the latest version out there?
