Yes...........you need to get an update.zip made for cwm3.0.0.2 and put the file in that. ask your rom dev to make one for you. just tell them what your wanting to do and they'll usually accommodate you. Then after you get the compatable empty zip, open it and you should see a folder for system.......open that and you should see a folder for app..........open that and put the apk inside, then boot into closckwork and flash.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] deciple:
look around in system/app..........data/app.........data/data..........and "DELETE" anything with the word "Vending".

Then install the Latest Unedited version of the market.

Then boot into clockwork and flash The themed market over it.

Try just installing the stock Vending.apk like normal if your having problems flashing it.

it's stock so it should install like any other unmodified app.

Black market is off the hook!!

Thanks guy's
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bxphantom:
Ok going to look for all vending in the folders u mentioned. After that just flash the stock market u guys have? Or is there another place to get the market app?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
You can do a search for it. I'm sure its on xda
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] deciple:
you can google it........that's what I did.

But it's the same apk, if you downloaded it already, just unzip to your sdcard

it should automatically create a folder namer "extracted" look in there and click on the Vending.apk and choose install.

Next you'll want to boot into Clockwork Recovery to flash the themed unsigned Vending.apk.

Now I don't know what Clockwork your using. So this is what I do;

I have cwm3 edifying script for ext4.........so I had my rom dev create an empty update.zip that flashes only system/app & data/app.

I don't put anything in the data/app folder because I'm not flashing anything to that folder in the phone.......I just have it incase I need to flash something to that folder one day.

However. I do put the Themed unsigned Vending.apk in the system/app folder and flash through cwm3 and so I have A themed apk to enjoy while I browse applications to try.

Removed market from system/app, data/app, data/data on the Epic Bonsai ROM and flashed the Stock Market, then flashed the Blue/Black Market. Still not luck, it just shows up as green. So it seems as if the Stock Market took, but not the Blue/Black Market.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Your uninstalling the market.not deleting right?

Bad seeds custom
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pjjohn73:
I deleted it with Root Explorer. Seeing as it is a "System" app I did not think it would uninstall. If I go into settings/applications/Manage Applications to uninstall Market I have the options to clear data, clear cache, and uninstall updates. Not to uninstall the original Market that is in the system/app folder. Even when I get silently updated to the new Market. I STILL have the original Market under system/app. I am assuming that should be removed too. On the Bonsai ROM that file is not called Vending, so it will not get over written, so I am assuming I need to delete it. ??

When flashing the stock market and the themed market. Do I stay in CWM and do both or do the stock, reboot then go back to CWM and do the theme?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Mich2Ga:
Cyan & Black is Hawt..... Thanks for the detail Nando....
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
You would uninstall it with titanium backup. Yeah you cant do that with a system app I have found without any issues.

Clear your cache and flash the stock market. Reboot and flash the themed one

Hey bxphantom's, sent ya a pm. I finally got this working, i think. I deleted update(vending.apk) from data/app and the vending.apk from system/app as well. NOT the updater.apk though. I left all else alone. In recovery i flashed the stock android market zip in op than rebooted. Do not open the market yet though. Than i went back into recovery and flashed my choice of unsigned themed market themed and rebooted. No issues or fc yet. Had it like this since yesterday. I know this has already been said again and again but just wanted to post what worked for me finally! THANKS btw its very nice looking......Cyan and black is too freakin sweeet!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bxphantom:
Thanks just replied.

Market question

I can't flash the black cyan market(no update-script in zip). It errors out and i have a fieeling that if i could flash it it would give me the edify update error as the others did. (but i am getting them edified)

Can anyone provide a flashable version of the Cyan and Black market .zip so i can get it edifyed (compatible for flashing with CWM 3.0.0.2 recovery)?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
It has a script. Just not compatible with what you have. Just use a flash from one of your devs

Bad seeds custom
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pjjohn73:
Thanks for the reply. Did not work that way for me either. Installs the stock green but not the themed. DOH!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pjjohn73:
What phone are you using?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pjjohn73:
Seems I finally got it to work. I uninstalled/deleted all Vending files excep the updater and I took a flash file from the Bonsai ROM that I found and put the stock Vending.apk and the themed Vending.apk in copies of that file and renamed the Vending.apk to the same file name he used in the ROM for good measure. First time I got it working and so far seems to be working correctly.

Question: If I were to use Titanium Backup and Freeze the Updater would that stop future silent updates of the Market?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
It has for me.glad you got it working
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pjjohn73:
Thanks..

Do you mind if I post the files I have working for the Epic Bonsai ROM on the Bonsai Thread, if I link your thread and give credit to you for the themed Markets. I think the folks on that link would love them and maybe the Dev of the Bonsai ROM can fix the files I edited to work better for his ROM?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
thats a great idea actually. im all for it
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] pjjohn73:
THANKS! I think they will love the themes.

Now that I have it working I notice that the text when entering a review is very hard to see. Is this a side effect of the inverted colors?

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] islandreamer:
I was having problems getting the Black Market to flash. Actually had it working for a week but read about a sd card speed fix and applied a zip Courtesy of akazabam @ AndroidForums named "sdreadahead-signed.zip"

On reboot the fix worked but the market reverted to stock. Tried deleting the market, checked data and it was not there. Reflashed rom RLS5 after wiping all, reinstalling Slayer's theme and tried to reinstall Black Market but it would not work even though it said it flashed. Even change roms to MikFroYo v4.4, which I like, but still nothing. Then saw you changed your OP to quote above. Did step 1, then went to step 2 but it was greyed out so went to Titanium and uninstalled market update there. Followed step 3 and 4. It worked perfectly. Rebooted 5 times to make sure it would stick and it does. Thanks for your help and for GREAT MODs!!

Can we get this to work with HTC HeroC using CWM 3.0.0.2 recovery?

Great mods OP! Having issues flashing black and blue market...really tired! Gonna give it another shot tomorrow!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
Are you following the guide in the op?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] iBowToAndroid:
Ok gonna give this one more shot. So according to your instructions above ^ , do we not have to delete anything from data/data or system/app anymore? I'm kinda confused about what exactly step 2 is in the new method in the OP- if that's referring to deleting anything "vending" related from the folders, or what. Thanks for any help, looking forward to hopefully getting it going this time...

*fingers crossed*
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
thats a method if you have been silently updated. you uninstall the stock market with titanium backup. but if you dont go to applications and uninstall update you will have the green market back the next time you flash. if your market is in system app then follow the first instructions. so you need to determine where the market is on your phone and follow instructions for that
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] iBowToAndroid:
I was silently updated, running 2.2.11 now. I have my vending apk in system/app and com.android.vending-2 in data/app.

?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
ok. uninstall your market with titanium backup. then follow the rest of the steps if youve been silently updated. as far as the market in system app its not running. delete that and clear your cache for safe measure
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] iBowToAndroid:
How about deleting anything from data/data?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
when i used this method or when i recreated this issue i didnt have anything in data\data. honestly i dont believe its neccessary. you can or wait to see if it doesnt work and then delete it
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
im going to bed. post any success or issue
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] iBowToAndroid:
Titanium's telling me it's gonna uninstall the one in system/app
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
dont worry just uninstall. then uninstall updates in applications

Manage Applications->Market->Uninstall updates?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] zman519:
Has any one got gmail or market to install on an Epic DI18 Stock 2.1 Rom:confused:

"1. uninstall market with titanium backup

2.go to applications and uninstall market updates. it will say it failed but just ignore.

3. flash the stock android market found here and reboot.

4. flash your unsigned market of choice"

I followed to the letter (tried 2 times nadroid) But i have no market at all after that.

Then i tried just up to #3 to see if the market was working at that point it was also missing.

So i tried Manage Applications->Market->Uninstall updates then flashing Emerald (also Cyan) but i still have no market in apps?

What am i doing wrong? I am flashing with CWM Recovery v2.5.1.0 Do i need to use a different Clockwork?

Problem #2 Gmail

I Flashed the Cyan gmail only to reboot with most of the of the icons/shortcuts and widgets missing :confused:
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
When you get to flash stock market what do you do? Do you look to see if it installs? Or go right to step 4?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Adam1422:
I followed the instuctions to a "T" for the market update and when I rebooted after I flashed my market of choice I am now stuck at the splash screen.

Any help would be much appreciated!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
what phone and rom are you on? i have never heard of a vending apk causing a bootloop as your phone can function fine without it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Adam1422:
See sig for rig! I am just stuck at the splash screen. Its not doing any loops at this point!

[EDIT] do you think it would be safe to pull the battery and see if I can get past the splash screen?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
i understand what your saying. im sorry i just use bootloop as a generic term for flash fail lol. i just dont see that happening because of an app. my theme teasm and a lot of guys i know are on the evo and myns rom and ive never heard this. pull your battery. try to restart
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Adam1422:
Doing that now and will report back!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:

Any ideas about why the gmail flash misses up all my icons/widgets?

After the phone boots back up 95% of my icon/shortcuts & widgets are gone, if re added there disappear on the next boot:eek:

But my Market will be uninstalled. How do I uninstall updates from an app that isnt there?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
you still havnt tried it???
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
ok let me know how how it goes
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] iBowToAndroid:
No. I wanna have all my steps laid out so I'm not doing a bunch of random things. So I'm kinda confused on how to uninstall Market updates if step 1 of the process is to uninstall the Market itself.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] zman519:
1 i uninstalled market with titanium backup

2, uninstalled market updates. and then i uninstalled com.android.vending.sumthingsumthing.etc.apk (what came up after "market updates" was uninstalled)

3, flash the stock android market found here and rebooted checking the apps, market was missing

4 booted back to CWM and flashed emerald

5 booted up still no market.

6 posting this as Recovery restores my nandroid
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
its not random, its pretty direct. yes after you uninstall, IF you were silently updated which you were, you will see the option to uninstall updates in applications/market. evenm worse comes to worse you can still get the stock market back
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
im not sure what the com.android something is. that isnt in my method. you may have to try a few times. i just have found that this method has worked consistently more then any other
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] zman519:
I have tried it many times, I tried before i posted and read a lot of the thread.

after i do step #2 Market is gone from that list and its relapsed with com.android.vending 0.0 KB

So i thought i would try that seeing that i have tried it many times the other way

I'm kind of lost as where to go from hear:( How come after step 3 i dont see market in apps? is that normal?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
where do you see that? in system/app? data/app? or under applications?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] iBowToAndroid:
Uninstalled Market, uninstalled updates, flashed stock, re-booted, verified I had a Market, flashed Red Market, re-booted, and........

no Market at all...

Until....

I remembered reading that this version is actually named Red Market- and BOO-YA!!!!!!! Loaded fine, found that there were updates, updated Slacker perfectly with no FCs whatsoever. AHHHHH!!! Can't believe I finally got it to work..

Major props to everyone involved, and you're all getting a beer on me so you better have donate links in your sigs! Thanks especially to Fernando for stickin with me, and everyone else who you've helped.

If you guys keep this going, and release future updates, something that would be really epic would be to change the color of the download progress bar. Obviously black wouldn't work so hot, but that would just be an amazing add-on :D
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] zman519:
In applications (the stock uninstall list)

i am booting up as i write this. this time i tried an old titanium backup copy of market i had from November

1 i uninstalled 2.2.11 market with TB

then i installed 2.2.7 then i decided to uninstall that.

skipped step 2

Move to step 3 and 4.

Still no market I know that's totally NOT the steps in the OP but the OP has not worked for me & i'm just trying to get something to work out.

Not sure how I sent this??
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] zman519:
Can any one help?

I'v followed the 4 steps in the OP quite a few times.

The gmail flash messes up the home screen widgets & icons go missing if you re-add them they go missing on the next boot.

The Market does not seem to work at all (its missing from app drawer). IDK if its the stock market flash in the OP that does not work on my Epic? but flashing the color mods with out doing the stock flash first and trying many other combinations of removing, deleting, uninstlling, :confused:

When i go to applications (step 2) and uninstall market updates the spot in the list is replaced with "com.android.vending 0.0 KB "

Question

Is that normal ? do you guys see that?

i can uninstall that also & i have tried doing that & leaving it to and moving on the step #3 (like that OP says to)

2.1 DI18 stock ROM
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
There was someone not to far back on the thread who.had the market renamed to that. Also remember the market is renamed in the app drawer. With gmail it sounds like you may have two in your system/app. Look and make sure. If the one your replacing doesnt have a capital g then that can cause havoc and screw up your widgets.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] zman519:
Hears some shots of system/app and data/app

Does any thing look out of place ?

Sent from my ComBadge
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] fernando sor:
yes you need to uninstall the com.android.vending. if that is running you have the stock market installed. you also have a market in system app but that is probably not installed. uninstall your market with titanium backup. it will show up as market in the titanium list of apps. then go to settings/applications/market and uninstall updates. then flash the stock market and then your market of choice. delete the gmail provider.

THANK YOU for providing the screenshots!! everyone should do that
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] zman519:
The Gmail.apk in system/app has a "G" in Gmail.apk

Can I just rename "Vending.apk" to "com.android.vending.apk" in the zip and replace "Vending.apk" in all scripts?

If I edit the zip do I have to use adb or can I just use winrar or somthing?

Or should I try renaming data/app/com.android.vending.apk to "Vending.apk"

Thanks for taking the time to try and help me

no eventually what you want is Vending.apk in system app running. just follow the steps. gmail provider ive never seen before. i would get rid of that
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] zman519:
Market failed again nandroiding....................

I did just as you said after the stock market flash i checked the app drawer it was missing. Is that normal?

Checked settings/applications/ also at that point and it still said com.android.vending.apk But that file in data/app was gone.

Flashed gmail cyan same result moved the gmail provider.apk (to back up on the sdcard)

when the phone boots up after all the flashing is done my app drawer is shot 2 apps gmail and market are missing.

the icon in root exp for gmail.apk is just green android robot NOT the gmail icon.

Maybe this just does not work with android 2.1 eclair :(

Its really bugging me i just dont want to ODIN the phone,
