I have downloaded the new market.apk for android and am wanting to uninstall the old one so that I can install the new one. what terminal commands would I need to run in order to do this?
I am pretty sure you can uninstall with titanium back up

Not To Familiar With ADB But.... Is Your Phone Rooted First Off? If So Just Install "Root Explorer" From Market.... (1)Then Scroll Down To (2)System.... (3)Apps.... (4)Market.... (5)Click Up Top On Read/Write Button.... (6)Long-Press On Market.... (7)Delete.... (8)To Install The "New Market" You Should Be Able To Just Download A "GAPPS.ZIP" & (9)[Flash It The Same As You Would Any "ROM"].... That's It!! GOOD-LUCK!!

Hey Guys, I've been trying to remove some apps that never get used. But when i tap manage applications, the Hero tries to load them but then always force closes about 5 seconds later.
Any tips on how to get around this?
I'm running firmware 2.1-update1
Thanks in advance!

I've tried to do it after restarting my phone, before I do anything else and still no luck. Has anyone else had this problem?
Try wipe dalvik. I may have gotten lucky, but it solved almost all of my force closes.
U can also remove through terminal or adb if u know the path

Well time to start reading, I have no idea what you two are talking about. Thanks for the advice though!
What apps are u trying to remove. U can go into an app manager and it will tell u the name then go into terminal and use rm command to remove. Example.
Su (enter)
rm /system/app/alarmclock.apk (enter) and it will remove it. Or download android commander on your PC and remove with that. Easier

Can I do this using an app manager such as Astro?

If you have a rooted handset you can use titanium backup to uninstall apps. Does a fine job of backing them up too of course.
Yes u can. I have Linda file manager. Works fine with apps. And as stated above titanium backup as well (must have app anyway)

I'm running a G1 with Cyanogenmod 6.0. Every time I download Street View, it gives me an error that it cannot be installed. Anyone know how to resolve this issue?
Wow. No one has any ideas?
Delete the original streetview.apk using root explorer or adb then u can install the new one from the market

I did that and still cannot download the new one from App Brain or Marketplace.
I had this problem, managed to delete the apk and reinstalled fine. But when I open navigation, there's no pegman like on the desire running same versions.
Is it compatible with G1?

I am trying to uninstall the news and weather widget. The uninstall button is greyed out. I want to install the transparent news and weather but it won't overwrite it either. Any ideas?
Sent from my nonsensikal froyo using XDA App
What phone do you have and is it rooted?
In some phones/ROMS the GenieWidget (News and Weather) is a system application meaning you need root to change it out.
I have the Droid Eris and it's rooted. I am using Nonsensikal 13.2 froyo. I don't know why I can't get it to uninstall so I can install the transparent version of it.
Try pushing the new GenieWidget using ADB.
Code:
adb push GenieWidget.apk system/app/GenieWidget.apk
Or download titanium and use that to uninstall it. Cake and pie.

Trying Titanium...doing the force remove app but it is trying to install something and reboots my phone but the install for whatever it is trying to install fails. I am not familiar with adb. Hmmmm
Uninstall does not work for system apps. Just delete/overwrite it.
I have used SuperOneClick to root my phone, and am now trying to use it to enable non-market aps. When I do, I get the following message:
Checking value... (requires root)
Non-market applications are disabled.
Allow non-market apps... (requires root)
OK
Checking value... (requires root)
FAILED​
Can anyone let me know what I need to do to enable non-market aps?
Did you try a non market app Install to make sure it wasn't working?
Sent from my phone on steroids
Bro...same thing here. What I did was flash to just about any rom and the rom will allow to install non market apps. Also, on the market there is an app that allows you to install apps from the SD card. So you could go to getandroidstuff.com and download the .apk, put on your cappy, and use the app to install. But personally I like the ROM! Yee

Sorry, I never got an e-mail that I got a reply.
Yes, I've tried to download the new Amazon market but get an error message that I can't install non-market aps.
There is a second way. It involves tibu and a brain.
1. Find settings storage in an Sqlite editor, I use sqlite from the market, it costs money but it is worth it.
2. Find the database in settings storage and open it
3. Click on secure
4.look at the first column, find allow non market apps.
Change the value for the non market apps from 0 to 1
5. Save the database.
You may need to reboot but that shouldn't be necessary
If it is already a 1 then change it to a zero and save then do it again.
Also before you do this download the super one click again and try it with the newly downloaded one click.

Did you root using one click, then try that( i reccomend rageagainstthecage method)(on the right upper corner of program)
Don't wait... get the new Market on your Zio NOW!!!
Google Market now offers books and streaming movie rentals with a completely new theme. It is working fine with the openZio rom. The movie rentals will not stream while rooted, but you can use Universal Androot to unroot watch a movie, then reroot when your done watching the movie. There may be some issues with Titanium Backup and market links.
<Edit> titanium backup now supports the new version of market
Thanks, nice find... now for a rom that runs with less memory and is faster.

my bad..figured it out
The only thing I'm still dealing with since this market update, is not being able to erase Market Search History. I've tried all the apps that worked before the update but now none of em work. Search history list is just growin. I'm not sayin, I'm just sayin.
Now I'm so broke i can't even pay attention!
This will clear your Market History.
Clear market cache and force stop market
(Settings >Applications>Manage Applications
select Market then hit Clear cache and Force stop)
Use Root Explorer and delete
"/data/data/com.android.vending/databases/suggestions.db"
Negative! I pressed, settings -applications- manage applications- all applications- market, and the cache was already 0, forced stopped, home. Then market, magnifying glass (search), and WHAM- big o list of search history. I'm not "rooted" (shouldn't have to be to clear search history). Id try the root thing but I don't know how.
Now I'm so broke i can't even pay attention!
I JUST DONT UNDERSTAND WHY MARKET SEARCH HISTORY ERASER'S DONT WORK SINCE THE MKT UPDATE! Am I the only one......
Now I'm so broke i can't even pay attention!
I think that its time for you to save some money and start paying attention
You can't use root explorer until you root your phone because its an app for rooted phones only.
1. Get the Universal ANDroot app v1.6.2 beta 5: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747598
2. Go to the android market and download Astro file manager (free version).
3. Copy and paste the Universal ANDroot apk to the root directory of your sd card (not inside other folders) via your usb cable.
4. In Astro manager, browse for the ANDroot apk and choose 'install.' If 'unknown sources' and USB debugging are unchecked then Astro will prompt you to enable them.
You can do it manually by going to /settings/applications/unknown sources and then to /settings/applications/development/USB debugging.
5. Once the installation begins, choose 'hard root' which is for the long term. Soft root temporarily roots your phone meaning that your phone will become unrooted after a reboot.
6. After rooting successfully, you will be given 'superuser' privileges. Apps that are for rooted phones will ask for permission to install and function.
7. Once your done rooting, deselect 'unknown sources' in settings. You don't need that feature enabled anymore for security precautions. Unknown sources allows the installation of non-market apps. First know what you download.
Finished! You can unroot your phone by using the ANDroot app and to unroot.
Where did he say he wasn't rooted? I must've missed that somewhere.
XD
BTW: Titanium Backup is now fully supporting the new market.

I am sorry if I was not clear. You have to clear the cache, force stop, then delete the file. You have to be rooted to do this.
You can also wait for history cleaner to be updated to support market again
