Missing Download buttons! - Nook Color General

I just installed CM7 on two NC's. I am seeing something strange in the Android App store. Some of the more common apps that I have used in the past like Astro, Facebook and others do not have a download button (or any button for that matter).
If someone can explain why and what I can do to resove this problem that would be great. A side note the NC's are using two diffrent gmail accounts.

Same and I'm using one gmail account. Also it looks like I've had a kinda old version of Facebook installed for a while (1.6.1) without marker stating there was a .2 or a .3 release. I uninstalled the app and that is how I found out about there being no download button. So it might of been a problem with some of the last nightlies as well

It's a problem with new market. Try uninstalling updates in the settings for the market.

I think it is because the new market is device sensitive, our devices show up as B&N nook colors, the market thinks we are running crippled e-readers and doesn't let us download all the cool ****.
Do what koopakid08, go to your application settings > manage applications, find the market and "uninstall updates"
New market looked crap anyway.

I followed what people said to do in this thread but when I try to edit the MarketUpdater.apk file name I get an error "Insuffecent Permissions". I'm really new to all of this I feel like I am missing some important part of this CM7 process. Any light on what I'm missing would be great!

What I did was rename MarketUpdater.apk to MarketUpdater.apk.bak by using linux on the sdcard that I'm booting cm7 off of. Not sure how to do it if you're running cm7 on the emmc.

With the help of a friend I found what I had to do so I am able to edit apps if CM7 is loaded on the emmc. I found this extremely useful so I will link the wiki that fixed my issue.

What did you fix? How?

I updated and also have no Download button. The panel that button should be on flashes white. When I uninstall updates, my old market comes back, but after I leave the market, the new one returns, with the download button. After I leave that market and return, functionality falls apart. The main page doesn't open correctly, Download button disappears, and frames become shaky. What's the deal???

The new market hates us all and laughs at our suffering.

LOL! But don't think I'm your new Market, to laugh at you: I'm one of the sufferers with not only download buttons being eaten by Green Dude, but also icons for previously downloaded apps missing. Mine are all free apps, but I can't imagine how people with disappearing paid apps could get refunds now.
Anyone to share his/her experiences with the best/fullest alternative apps marts? Thank you.

Wow. I was with you to the last step. Couldn't find "compatibility mode" in the old market or in the new.

I simply downloaded super manager from the market then renamed market updater..
1. Open super manager
2. Enable root function option
3. Use built in file explorer in super manger to find market updater.apk.(should be in system apps...)
4. Rename. I simply renamed (.bin instead of apk...)
This will preventing market from updating...
Hope this helps all....

Square app

I am running KaosFroyo v35.1 and was trying to download the Square app from the market, but it doesn't look like I can download it using Froyo. Does anybody know how I can get it from the market or maybe someone can send me the .apk?

You can't download it on KaosFroyo v35.1? That's weird 'cause I've been using it on my small business eversince version 30 on KaosFroyo. What do you mean with "doesn't look like I can download it using Froyo"? The app can't be downloaded? You can't see it in the Market? Or what?
If you can't see it in the Market, search for the Eris Market Fix. Follow the instructions. Reboot and clear Market data in Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Market > Clear Data
I read somewhere that there was an issue where most people running 2.2 would not be able to download the Square app. I tried looking in the market and it does not show up, even after the market fix.
edit: I did a dalvik wipe and now it shows up on the market thank you!
I'm glad you got it have fun swiping!

When you plugged the square, did you see a "key" logo poped out?
You should swipe the card fast and straight.
Yes, I saw the key. Still not working.

Same issue here, after a few emails being sent back and forth between Square and I they told me the Eris is not an officially supported device
They did offer some support in saying to plug the device in slowly. Doing this I have been able to get it to work a few times.
Well, that stinks.
Gotta give this a shot! Nothing like saving on fees!

Not true buddy.. it works on my Eris running on KaosFroyo 3.7.
Here's what you do.
1) Plug in your square device
2) Go to advanced task manager or any task killer and make sure you kill any media player that runs automatically when you plug a device into the headphone jack
3) Adjust your volume once... up or down does not matter what level
4) Run Square app
5) Now swipe the card fast and straight. It only works one way.. the metallic strip of your card facing the square device smooth surface (not the surface with the square logo)
Cheers. Let me know if it still doesn't work for you.

Same thing happened to me. Just did a restore to roll back to the original vending.apk and all is well again.
Have you done the market fix?
Setting / Applications / Manage Applications / Running / "Clear cache"; then "Force stop"
Then go up to Google Services Framework and "Force stop"
Open Titanium Backup; click on "Backup/Restore" and scroll to Google Services Framework 2.2.1 - and "Wipe data"
Go back to Home and launch Market. You should receive an error message (if not, repeat steps above).
Reboot and you should be good to go.
Worked for me with the data wipe market fix.as far as the new market goes... Very xbox liveish....

Confirmed that works. But link has 2 zips. And both have the smell name file.
Not sure if both are same.
Also for me there is a minor bug. The update icon is so thin u can hardly see it. And the uninstall one is very close bellow with full width.
One of the changes with this new market is the evaluation time for purchased apps. Instead of one day you have 15 minutes to return and refund. I hope the make it longer. Holding off on this one for now.

This seems to only affect TnT (Lite). I haven't added it there yet, because of the weird screen glitches. The VEGAn build seems unaffected.

Did you try downloading any apps after the update? After i did the update, i get an error that there is not enough space to install.
What is the benefit of upgrading to the new market? Cover flow? Anything else? Is it worth it??

You probably ran out of storage space on your internal sdcard. Go to "storage" in settings and check if you still have space left.
use vegan beta 3 rom,
if you install the new market and getting "not enough space" error!
Format your SD card. Format it at 2GB/256MB then I got full market could be download
Im Getting Force Closes After I install. Using CM6 b4.
I have been using the new market for about 3 days now. and havent noticed any problems with it.
i can download and install stuff just fine. and no FC's.
im not sure if we have the same APK but i just renamed the old market then moved the new apk into system/app changed permissions on it to rw-r--r-- installed it and did the traditional market fix. and everything seems to be working just fine.

Market "fix" for my SGT Wifi version

i recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab wifi version and I tried doing a search for Yahoo Messenger in the Market but it doesn't give any result, says that 'no application found'.
but on my mini pro, Yahoo messenger shows up so i end up downloading it in my mini pro and transfer it via BT on my SGT.
any idea why it's not showing in SGT's Market? is there a way for me to be able to fix it?
I'm running Overcome 1.4.2 with Globe as my carrier and it shows up fine in the Market. Didn't see it on stock though.
i've heard of Overcome but i'm not sure if i can use that on my SGT since mine is the Wifi version.
here's what's going on with the Market that I have on my SGT Wifi version.
At first i thought that Yahoo Messenger is the only app that I can't find but unfortunately, I can't locate GO Launcher as well. It shows the Go Launcher themes but not the app itself.
So I'm assuming that there might also be other known apps that might not show. Is there a way to fix or patch the Market so that it would show the apps?
i've tried MarketEnabler, MoreLocale2 but it's a no go .. i've seen someone post a copy of Market here. if i overwrite the existing Market app, won't that cause a problem or will that fix the problem?
anyone?

found a temporary solution .. i've installed Amazon's AppStore, AppBrain and Applanet.

Updated Nook App (v 2.7) Doesn't Run under CM7

I just updated my NOOK app and it does not run. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the same result. Anyone else gotten the updated nook app that came out today running under CM7?
EDIT: Never mind. I cleared Data and then it was able to run. . . It does require a complete reload of all of your books due to a new architecture. . . so bear that in mind. . .
Hopefully this addresses the general crappy performance the old nook app had under cm7. I swear every other app I use works flawlessly. The old nook app constantly forced closes, is very insensitive to touches, and just plain old sucks. Eventually when you got it to load a book it is pretty stable but will still lose your spot every so often.
It drove me to set up dual boot stock/cm7. I am booting back to CM7 now to test the new version out!

agreed, not really impressed with the nook app, it does work though (newest update). irritates the hell out of me when it loses my place, i've found that the bookmark feature seems to work if I can remember to use it lol.
The only reason I use the Nook app is to show off to my little niece about the page-flip feature, that's all.
I read .epub using either Cool Reader or Aldiko while using Adobe Reader for .pdf.
How did you install the the 2.7 update? While the nook app shows up in the Market, there is no option to install or update. When I go to the web based Market interface, it claims that the nook app is not compatible with my CM7 Nook Color. I've tried the usual fixes like editing the build.prop file for screen density (160/161) and also to make the device/manufacturer appear to be HTC. No luck. I found a 2.6 apk that works fine, but have yet to find a 2.7 apk outside the Market. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Uninstall the market update and you can search it and it will have a download button.
I wish the nook app supported the "read to me" books that I bought and now can't use unless I put stock back on my nook. I'd like to also be able to read them on my phone or another tablet.

I am running into the same issue with Phiremod'd 6.3 and the B&N android app.
However in my case, once uninstalled (original was corrupt and would not work), returning to the Android Marketplace and selecting the app does not bring up a download button. Gives me all the info about the application, but no app download or uninstall.
Any thoughts as to why this is happening? If it were windows, I'd say there was a registry setting left that was making the system think the app was still installed...

I have a quick question: is it possible to lock the old market down so it doesn't auto-upgrade. Every now and then, out of the blue, I fire up the market only to find that the app has updated. I can then stop the Market and uninstall updates. But it's a pain in the a$$ to do that over and over and over...
Uninstall the market updater app. (I used Titanium Backup for that.)

i've been working on that, it's been a lingering issue. but on my last 4 boots with install it's been there.
Just loaded it on and everything works as it should. Even put Apex on so now I have either MIUI launcher or stock launcher!
Although I'm having problems with root permission and the keyboard doesn't do as well as correcting like the AOKP ICS build
**Sorry didn't see the post about the SU flash...I'll try that**
Just thought I would put out my findings so far on this version:
Cons:
- After putting on the SU flash it seems to have helped with the root permissions. Root Explorer crashes on me when I open it, it asked for root permission and this FC's.
- The keyboard doesn't recognize words like the typical ICS keyboard does and puts the red line under normal words that you would use. Even changing keyboards it still does it in the messaging apps and things. Not sure if it's a translation thing or what. Like in notes I have "one call for scheduling" for some notes I took and all four of those words have red lines under them.
- Notes and a few other things aren't translated to English, still is in Chinese even though I have English set as the language.
- Autobrightness doesn't seem to work the best, it stays pretty dim after the screen goes off and back on.
Pros:
- Battery life seems to be good but I haven't charged completely to test, I just charged a light charge and has stayed at the battery level for about a hour now and I have used it slightly so it does appear that it's good.
- Not really by your doing but it's nice being able to use the Apex launcher with the MIUI launcher so you could have the vanilla ICS look as well as MIUI look without changing roms.
- Gallery works fine on my end as well as the external music files. Doesn't read the internal but that's already posted I believe.
Hope that's not to long of a post and provides some good feedback, Calendar showed up this time on this flash and everything else seems to be working like it should
Is the fixed ROM a flashover and is there a way to get rid of the "download size requires WI-fi"?
Hey Mark, loving this rom so far. Seems really solid and am looking forward to the next update.
Was the 1x4 miui music widget removed? I'm only seeing the 4x4. Any way to get that back?
Just rembered: the Facebook sync, under accounts and sync, doesn't work. When you choose it, it just returns you to the account list.

If the widget was removed it was because of china, we should see it again soon though. This week they reintroduced their "custom music" app. For facebook sync, ICS removed it, you will need to download an app from market, i use http://tinyurl.com/7snt9sw from market. It syncs all contacts and pictures. Just add account from settings>accounts and sync
