Works great on my wife's Galaxy s, before this I changed so many roms trying to find one with a fast market loading, and results that wasn't the rom but DNS...
[LG Optimus 2x] orlox:
Thank you. Now its really fast
[LG Optimus 2x] sleepingsword:
sweet, I wondered why the market was so slow, its running super fast now :D
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Glad u like it.

Enjoy the speed what market should be. I'm enjoying since day 1 I found this workaround.......by no means easy to figure it out though. Lolz. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] zebbe77:
Nice one, thx temasek :)
[LG Optimus 2x] mindwalkr:
This is way off-topic, but the same fix (changing DNS servers) also fixes issues with my Ubuntu to watch specific videos and other random net sluggishness..

[LG Optimus 2x] speed_pour:
Here's an interesting bit of proof that there's at least something to this being version based (sorry if somebody else already posted this).

I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 wifi rooted. When Market 3.1.5 came out, I installed it and was left with the weird case of having 2 different market apps. I have both 1.0.28 and 3.1.5 installed. With just a quick couple of tests and restarts I saw that 1.0.28 still takes several seconds to connect to the market, but 3.1.5 is about 2 seconds to having most of the images loading (and this is on a slowish connection with a lot of data downloading at the moment). Previously both versions of the market were equally slow on the tablet.
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
having the same problem, I've cleared market data and went back to google dns but my apps is still blank Amy help would be awesome.

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] Compass Linux:
I'm running CyanogenMod 7.1 on my Defy, and to me it seems this fix is not necessary, because:

$ cat /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 8.8.8.8

nameserver 8.8.4.4

Unless you want to change google's DNS servers, which are probably used on 3G and wifi (I'm guessing here).

If your device is rooted and you can edit text files then there is no reason to install an extra application (that expires by the way), in my opinion.

Compass.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Thank you for your precious input. However bear in mind there are more and more apps that are doing stuffs that you may perform manually via terminal. That is inevitable. A good example is File Manager. Why use Root Manager when u can do it via terminal or adb? Because its so convenient!

I still like to use an app to perform what u can do manually via terminal. Many would love just by pressing of a few keys and the job is done, rather than typing all the stuffs manually.

Rather than saying there is NO reason to install an app, it is wiser to say there is another way to do it....manually of cuz.

My three cents.
[LG Optimus 2x] rafadell:
funciona realmente!!! tome el tiempo y sin dns tardaba 10 segundos y con dns no tardo ni 2!!!

<Mod Edit> - English please
[LG Optimus 2x] glenncain:
yup set dns works like a charm.

fellow singaporean bro~
[LG Optimus 2x] terratrix:
Thanks for this tip :)

Changed resolv.conf (at first it was Google DNS) and Changed to OpenDns and boom, quite a difference in speed!
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
Wow seriously?

No help, does not on have an answer? Or is it simply no concern to assist a visiter to this site? Think I'm starting to recall Why I stopped coming here.

Someone help a brother out?

What market version u using? Are u rooted?

If rooted try flash this market 3.3.1.1 from recovery.

I'm guessing something changed with my modem connection to my gmail google account. I think it screwed it up somehow
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Was having a meeting so can't use phone to reply earlier.

Is it u can't access the market or all Google services? Can u login to Gtalk?
[LG Optimus 2x] MBT93:
i dont know how to thank u enough man,awesome work n thanks alot :D
[LG Optimus 2x] e2zippo:
Seems to be working, even on 3G, it opens much faster now! Thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
I can access the market but when I go to "my apps " there is a blank page, it doesn't list my applications
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Ok. Try this.

Use Titanium Backup and select "Market Doctor" to fix your issue.
[LG Optimus 2x] ssauger:
I got the same issue since i use setdns. i tried clear market cache, uninstall/ install, flash over new CM7 nightly, still the blank screen under my apps in market. Titanium link doesnt fix it. Any other solution?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
It's a know issue that users may encounter "My Apps" blank in Android Market. Personally I really don't think so it is caused by SetDNS. (99.3333% sure).

The following are my thoughts of possible solutions to your issue.

Possible solutions:-

1. Uninstall market updates via Applications menu. Reboot

2. New market allows u to choose your primary account for Market use so check if you have selected the correct account (if u have multple accounts in your phone).

3. Clear Market's data/cache and reboot

4. Clear Market's data/cache and use Titanium Backup and choose "Market Doctor" to fix issue.

5. Uninstall market updates via Applications menu and boot to recovery. Find a flashable market zip and flash it and reboot.

6. Try to install one app from market. Once done, choose "My Apps" and see if your all your apps appear.

Pls revert if it still doesn't help. I'm curious too.....
[LG Optimus 2x] ssauger:
I tried all this without succsess. when i use a account from a friend on my phone and his apps are shown, my account on his phone and my apps are listed. only thing doesnt work is my account on my phone :(
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Ok try this.

Flash an Old Market 2.3.6

http://www.mediafire.com/?31kpomr8apii5sk

If its ok then grab newer market to flash it.

Market 3.3.11

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?t4bznc7wdvhh4hf
[LG Optimus 2x] ssauger:
Thx for your help, when i use old market and go to my apps, i got the message server error
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Ah ha! Caught the culprit I think.

Your issue should self recover soon. Its probably not your issue but the server end.

Hopefully I'm correct here. So just skip a day w/o market. See if tomorrow it recovers.
[LG Optimus 2x] bloodhunter112:
Are you sure this is safe to use?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
May I ask why not? It is as common as home users setting DNS servers on their routers.
[LG Optimus 2x] ssauger:
i hope your right, thx for the help and i report soon.
[LG Optimus 2x] bloodhunter112:
Because I heard people broke their wifi. Isnt that fixable?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
It appears so in the comments from market. I've 2 android devices with set dns installed and I'm using it for sometime already. No issue.

To avoid possible issue, do a nandroid backup and try. If it really breaks wifi then restore nandroid.

Very interesting comments from market. I'll poke around and see if it does what some commented.

Thanks.

Edit: My 1st thought....those claim it breaks wifi, are they on proxies...
[LG Optimus 2x] Mysterydunex:
I have had same problem, unticking "use Stativ IP" solved it.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
U meant u also have blank "My Apps" screen in market and u untick "Use Static IP" solved it?

Edit: Very possible! This is due to Static IP configuration requires dns server inputs among other settings. Nice catch.
[LG Optimus 2x] ssauger:
Where i must untick "Use Static IP"? I dont know why, but i restored a nandroid form 2 days before, i never used set dns at this time and my apps ar blank, maybe its cause the rollout from the new market ?!

the "Use Static IP" under wifi? the problem for me with blank apps is also on 3g
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
As my earlier reply, it is possible that your issue may well be server end. If u restore nandroid and the issue persist then it adds to my theory that it is server issue. No app can do a perm disability to wifi and/or 3g.

Anyway in wifi settings, select "Advanced" option and u should see "Static IP".
[LG Optimus 2x] mcmb03:
dude, this is so great!! thanks a ton! the market is so much faster loading than it used to be along with webpages, etc
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I use it on both wifi and 3g. I'm loving the added speed.
[LG Optimus 2x] ex!le:
Hey!

I have a question:

The first time I used SetDNS, the market was fully loaded immediatly on 3G and also on Wi-Fi, but now it loads a bit slowly (but faster than without SetDNS).

It loads on 2-3s but sometimes it takes about 5s...

Is that normal?

EDIT: More than 5s.. :|
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
It depends....

1. Perhaps atm your network connection is actually slower, causing an actual slow connection to market but no slow down on dns resolution.

2. Your market got killed and upon opening up market again with the above point (1), 2 factors added to slow market but still no dns resolution issue.

I could think of more possibilities but I think the above 2 will do.

Edit: Maybe I add point (3)

Common sense theory

(My end + remote end = result)

Fast + Fast = Fast

Slow + Fast = Slow

Slow + Slow = Slow

Fast + Slow = Slow
[LG Optimus 2x] ex!le:
Thanks!

Yeah, my market was killed. So I think it was because of that..

But... I don't understand your "common sense theory" :D
[LG Optimus 2x] gensplejs:
Hmmmmm.... not working for me (using google dns servers in my router and market is still ****ing slow!)
[LG Optimus 2x] rafostruga:
works better,but why just 24hours free??????
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
Ok so I've done everything possible that I know to fix the blank "my apps" issue and have come up dry.

I sbf'd my phone back to original software 2 software updates ago, so my phone is factory fresh. The problem is still there.

Factory wipe, cache wipe, dalvik wipe.

The problem is still there.

I restored a nandroid from a month ago,

The problem is still there.

What the heck is the cause of this?
[LG Optimus 2x] dyetheskin:
Google is having issues with it's market,some apps appear discontinued when they haven't. some apps don't list but if u search by name they're listed as installed. give them time to rectify the problems
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
I have a feeling your cache partition is ext4 (remains from a Topogigi install if that's the case.). So backup, search for the "backtoext3-all-partitions.zip" or something similar, install it in CWM, restore your backup. Report back.
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
I just searched for this and google showed one result. This very same conversation we are having here, how about a link?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Attached. 10chars.
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
Heres another thought to complicate things even more.

I have 2 gmail accounts, the primary shows blank in "my apps"

But if while in the market I hit menu accounts and then switch to another account then when I hit "my apps" the pre installed apps show up? it doesn't show newer apps if I download something else. In other words it won't add to the list but the system apps show up.

Still blank on primary account in market

---------- Post added at 09:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 PM ----------

Thanks for the link, so will this wipe my phone? Why back up? Could this make my situation worse? Plus I'm assuming when you say back up you mean nandroid? I'm on a droid x is this phone specific?

Thanks for all your help
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Ooops. Yes, this is very phonespecific. Better ask in the droid x forum.
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
Oops,, that was a close one.

The other thing is I've ben rooted forever but have never ran a rom on my phone, how could this have ben converted?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
My hunch that you had an ext4 cache partition was based on the rather important assumption that you had an Optimus 2X. The symptoms you described seemed to fit.

Now, I have no idea what is wrong with your market. I, and most other people in this forum, have no idea how to fix stuff on a Droix X. I don't mean to hush you off or anything, but you really need to present your problem in the correct forum.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Maybe someone missed this post.......
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
I don't disagree with you at ask but the reason I came here was due to the little fact that out appears the app originated from here. As far as the dev is concerned
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Read one post b4 yours. Its perhaps an issue with the back end server, ie Google. So lay back for 1 day max and see if your issue self recover.
[LG Optimus 2x] hasbrobot:
Thanks,

Saw that but wasn't sure if it was an opinion o or it was really going on.

Never the less, thank you
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I've also replied a user earlier who had similiar issue. No app will be able to nullified your wifi and 3g even after u restore a nandroid backup. Upon restore nandroid if issue persist, it is definitely not Set DNS issue.

Go have fun for a day and don't click market for just a day and see if self recovers.
[LG Optimus 2x] il Duce:
I'm out of thankses, so, thanks, this was LIGHTNING fast on my cdma EVO3D :) I didn't even see the loading circle!

Out of curiousity, I assume setting back to "googleDNS" will revert to default, if I run into some sort of issue?

Thanks again, totally amazed.
[LG Optimus 2x] KingRedHot:
I like speed, guess I'll give this a try. Thanks dude!

Swyped from my Red Hot HP Officejet 3800
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Set back to DHCP/Default and perform a network reset, eg turn on/off airplane mode.
[LG Optimus 2x] chiballer20:
Just downloaded this a min ago. I'm assuming that were suppose to set it at "Open DNS" right? I have noticed a difference at this setting. I like it. Really fast, happy!
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
There are several options available. I use OpenDNS. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] peacekeeper05:
Thank you! loads significantly faster now. At last!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] ssauger:
I fixed my blank apps market problem. It was a app (teeter for me) and after uninstall this app and clear market cache/data all was fine with the rest of my apps.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Wifi tether app? It has history of conflicts with roms especially gb roms. Breaks wifi.
[LG Optimus 2x] ssauger:
No teeter, ist a Sense rom game, i found a apk to install it on AOSP roms, but this is months ago and worked fine, till now. I dont know why at this point it break my market, but after uninstall and clear market my market runs normal again. So maybe ohter users with the problem should search for a app that break their market. Here i posted how i fixed it in step by step. Sorry for my bad english ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Ahh ic. Interesting find.

Thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mysterydunex:
yes, but maybe my prob was different who knows..
[LG Optimus 2x] freesoul27:
Thanks, now market works very fast
[LG Optimus 2x] DIY Phone Gadgets:
Thanks:) works better now.
[LG Optimus 2x] erad1:
Thanks T! This knocked the snail-trail from the market right off my Captivate!
[LG Optimus 2x] onesolo:
I also feel the same... although it's not a major problem...
[LG Optimus 2x] pepemosca:
Could it be that Google Docs also works better if I change the DNS?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I don't use that but I suppose it does as eg OpenDNS does speed things up.
[LG Optimus 2x] RonSykes:
Thank God. The market has been such a bug bear for me. I couldn't understand why when I have a stable connection to a fast internet connection I could get a useful response time from the market.

I just tested this and there was an instant dramatic difference. Next I'll try it out on 3G where previously I was unable to use the market at all.
[LG Optimus 2x] xIceCream:
After we set OpenDNS with SetDNS, can we uninstall it ?

Because every time I use my phone, my phone will show:

* SetDNS has acquire root permission *. << Is it normal ?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
No, don't uninstall SetDNS.

Open your Superuser app and disable notifications.
[LG Optimus 2x] eejayyeahuuh:
Wow! Extremely quick and easy tip. Opens way faster!
[LG Optimus 2x] adam.eno:
Does this work on un-rooted devices?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Non-root has limited functionality, how limited I'm not sure.
[LG Optimus 2x] Adolf1994:
Does anybody know what command get issued by this application? I don't want an app just for that. I'd rather make a startup script.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Try modify the resolv.conf in /system/etc
[LG Optimus 2x] vampirefo:
Is the app free or is it trialware?
[LG Optimus 2x] Adolf1994:
resolv.conf

nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4

My ideas of what shall I modify here is exactly 0
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Its a paid app. Try searching for an alternative free app in market. There is one. ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I believe setdns doesn't change that by default. It has an option to change the resolv.conf values IF the default don't work for some.

Opendns is

208.67.222.222

208.67.220.220
[LG Optimus 2x] rizwiz:
Man its a real charm!!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] joel8736:
I have bought setdns but i experience a battery drain with it. If you have both wifi and phone data activated, then setdns is using a lot of energy to switch DNS between both data channel.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Been using it for sometime. No such issue at my end.
[LG Optimus 2x] NiveusLuna:
I love the app. It's greatly sped up market load on this old phone, not just over wifi, but also over t-mobile edge data.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Sent from my HTC Dream - old and still kicking!
[LG Optimus 2x] pepemosca:
It's just me... or the Market is now working OK!? I don't need anymore the SetDNS.
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Great! Its not just you. Market 3.3.12 works fast w/o opendns. I would monitor closely first.

Anyway setdns is not just to speedup market. It speeds up everything u do in the internet.
[LG Optimus 2x] pepemosca:
Yes, yes... But I just want to know if I was dreaming or not :)
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
*pinch*....you are not dreaming. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] wallendiaz:
This application improves overall response rate of Wi-Fi and 3G, or is it just to improve the speed of market???
[LG Optimus 2x] pepemosca:
Some says that notice difference in all the Internet.

For me, is the same.
[LG Optimus 2x] wallendiaz:
ok..... I guess the battery life is the same?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
No difference ....negligible.

[LG Optimus 2x] BlackArtsInc:
First of all thanks for this app and the dev work! :)

I just have a simple question! ;)

If it doesnt change the etc/resolv.conf file,

then what exactly does this app do?

I m just curious... :)

N.
[LG Optimus 2x] krzych:
This application is going crazy on some circumstances (toasts about gaining root privs are showing up CONSTANTLY), and more - after uninstalling, I have no WiFi at all.

Now I have to go from nandroid (luckily, did one yesterday), and speedup while having it was just NONE.

So, a pity, but it isn't working.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mariborcan:
Hello developers!

I have a question about the gingerbread update (2.3.3 & 2.3.4) on galaxy ace.

I'm using froyo 2.2.1 because of 1 thing in the gingerbread... the lock screen. It takes 2 seconds when you press any button to unlock screen to appear that's why i don't like it. And i was wondering is there any fix or anything? I don't want any custom roms or something like that.. I like stock better.

Thank you
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] adil_:
I don't think there is a fix for it...

Gingerbread has so many advantages over froyo, so I think you should give it a try....

Actually, the lag in the lock screen is one of the features of gingerbread... Whenever you lock your phone, it goes into deep sleep... Hence It improves the battery life...
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mariborcan:
Thank you for your answer.

I have already tried it but the lock screen really bugs me :/ I know that the gingerbread is better and the performance is better you can feel it but that really bugs me like when I answer the phone or when i end the call special when i end the call or anything ...

I hope there will be a fix or something that could work this thing out.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mttca:
I think it is ACE or Galaxy only. My Xperia with 2.3.3 doesn't have that annoying lockscreen delay.

Actually even with that delay, after 1 week with 2.3.4 for Ace, I still think it is better than 2.2.1.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Mariborcan:
I know that galaxy ace has this problem... but this really bugs me... like i said.

I hope that in the future there will be a fix or anything. I'm hoping for Ice cream sandwich update if it would be possible :) we'll see :)

Hi guys, so what are the "many advantages" of Gingerbread over Froyo?? I'm staying on Froyo because of all the bugs I'm hearing about ie/ screen lock, lagging, SOD, can't app2SD etc... & I haven't heard of any major add-ons. Camera/video is adequate for my needs. My carrier has said wait for 2.3.4 in UK, don't go to 2.3.3! So can somebody convince me to upgrade please? Thanx. Graham. London. :confused:
