It only just updated on my phone.
Say, why can't I see all my apps that I've downloaded when I hit "My Apps" now? I only see the paid ones, it seems.

Same problem here, but it shows the missing apps as "installed " when I search for them like xda. I uninstalled the update and had it pushed again and I saw my apps listed but then it went away after an hour. My brothers nexus s doesn't so that. I wonder what's causing it, but not a big deal for me.

Yeah I'm not sure what's going on... kinda of frustrating not being able to see whether my other apps have updates or not.
I agree, its a documented problem, I'm sure they'll push a fix

my list of apps in the market has been randomly missing a lot of apps for at least a year. "Clear data" restores all the installed apps, but after a while some go missing again. I'm quite surprised that it still happens with the new market.
No new market here, though... still 2.3.6
If you have problems with missing apps try to delete the data in the apps settings. Opening the market again will result in again an acceptation of the terms and your apps will be there again...

I still haven't gotten my market update yet, although I am in Canada.
I wish I had the old market. The new one is sluggish and has a lot of "features" I don't need.
i agree... new market is bloated and sluggish... i liked the functionality of the older market (i can browse a LONG list of top free apps)
So, just flash the old market!!! Its much better than the new one

Apologies if this has been said already.
Good post!
Some apps gathered and despatched location information even when an application was not running and some sent updates every 30 seconds.

First of all, anyone have a list of the apps? And secondly, could the above be the reason that alot of people running Android suffer worse battery loss than others?

Nope, apps on the android market are not vetted or checked.
You are expected to check the permissions an app uses, and decide to install or not. When one of our team published an app, it appeared within seconds on the market available for install.

Im not so much annoyed they are getting information from me. At the end of the day there is very little information they can take.
BUT:
I am annoyed that apps are doing things I have not asked them too. Thats the single most annoying thing an application can possibly do!
I want my phone to do what I ask of it.
Not what some developer wants... What are they? A bunch of little steve jobs?!
Im glad the devs here are trustworthy..
Excuse me if it's posted, I didn't see it. Grab it here! And damn it is sexy

Can Google make it so when my apps are updating, it only does it one at a time? The phone becomes practically unusable when 10 apps are trying to download at the same time. Super annoying.

just don't use your phone for a minute while they update
Maybe there's a possibility, like the netflix mod, to bypass the root check by someone that has the knowledge to do that sort of thing
If I install this, can I receive another Market update in the future? Or I should again install via APK?

I manually updated this, works fine. I do have a problem though, maybe it's me ;o)
How do you manually update an App after installing this latest Market app.
Example:
I've installed the new market place and notice that the Amazon UK app had an update this morning. I have set this app to manual update, but when I open the app through the new market, the only 2 buttons are 'open' and 'uninstall', there's no update button.
Confused? I am... any ideas guys?

changelog:
Adds +1 For Apps And Games, Pin Number For Purchases, And More…
there’s a brand-new settings menu, as well as click-to-read explanations of app permissions (not developer customizable, unfortunately). There’s also a brand-new Market icon to spruce things up.
Oh, and did we mention you can now use a custom PIN for purchases on your phone, instead of leaving your Google Checkout wide open for anyone that picks up your device? If you have kids, or your phone is stolen, this is one awesome feature to have – and really, it makes a lot of sense.
Root access is not required, but you’ll need Unknown Sources enabled in the Settings -> Applications menu to install it.
will the market be updated to this anyways? does it show all apps or not?
Eh I don't know don't feel so sure about This.

After screwing around with the new apk for 15 mins, it seems the missing apps problem may be fixed. I am currently holding my breath though...
Edit - immediately after making this post the problem returned. I can stop holding my breath now.
just installed. Seems ok.
How do I install? -1.bin , right?

lol you guys think i would really post a virus or something. i found it. if you dont believe its true google android market 3.1.3. and yes the missing apps thing is there still. i use titanium backup. market doctor feature to fix that tho
For some reason this market is showing all apps for me that I've installed from Amazon store as if they need updating. When I yet updating them, it fails but still shows as if needing to be updated. That's annoying.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
yea no kidding. if you have titanium backup you can detach those apps from the market so they wont show updating. those are apps from the amazon app store i think, love the +1 feature

What is a +1 feature? Can't figure it out..
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Moved to apps..........
+1 is a new google plus feature. if you go into the market and look at an app it will have the option to +1 it which is equivalent to liking a status on facebook. you can +1 websites and links. and all the links you've +1's can be viewed on your google plus
Market updates
Any ideas as to why the android market is not retrievable from the android market...other than the recursive need for the market in the first place

Seriously though, you will get the new market soon, it downloads and installs in the background without you seeing it, and then one day soon you will open market and be greeted with a brand new EULA and a brand new market too!
Or you can google it and download the APK.
Or just go here:

ummm.. this is COMPLETELY wrong. you get updates silently from Google.
you can force it to update manually by force closing market and deleting the data
or... download the apk
My problem is, it's updated, but it doesn't show all my downloaded apps. What gives? I went through each account and none of them are there. It seems only 7 apps show and it looks like only the paid ones. I've downloaded well over 60-70 apps. None of them show.
I'm on Android 2.3.6 Nexus S (Tmobile) and am running stock--no ROMs whatsoever.
Any one have luck updating gtalk to hangouts, I suppose if your rooted it's probably simple but if your unrooted as I am than the talk app is a system app bloatware and hasn't updated to hangouts

OP asked how we'd go about this if we aren't rooted. Curious about this as well.
You can do it via the play store through the webpage.
Says i have hangouts installed but its not in my app tray..when i hit open from the play market hangout app page it opens Talk
Same thing happened to me...just install it from the play.google.com site as @robfactory said above. Fixed.
installed from web to device and rebooted phone
I'll be sticking with talk. Hangouts is a bit......how do I say it..... IT SUCKS:what:

Hate to say it bud, but step one for anything XDA, is root your phone .
Stay on the stock ROM if you want (god knows why, less battery life, slower phone, less secure phone, still the same phone and functionality, but that is your choice to stay on the ROM it came with), but you should add root capabilities. You can stay on the same ROM, only downside is I'm pretty sure there is no way to stay with your current setup, HTC Dev unlock WILL wipe your existing settings, widgets, profiles, apps, etc. But you can flash just the small root package and modify nothing that the phone came with originally. Rooting your phone is required here at XDA (lol not really, I just say that). Anyway, sorry I don't have anything useful to say about the app, but trust me... You want root Besides, you can deny root access to anything. Who is SYSTEM anyway? Why does he have all the powers and I haz so little?
P.S.
Do it.

I believe the update was pushed today, I saw it in play store as the actual update and it worked fine for me. I got the error message in the previous post once, but restarting the app fixed it. I do get my contact list disappearing quite often.
So far I feel the contact list could use some managing, I miss seeing my talk list and seeing who's online but I suppose I could try it out some more. There is a decent amount of emoticons added, but everything feels very basic and minimalistic. Not quite what I was expecting, could be because it's early on.
All in all, still feels like a beta.
