Hate the new market? - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

If you're like me and really don't care for the new market I thought I'd share this tip.open terminal emulator and type
Su
pm disable com.android.vending. updater
and NO more market updating itself .If you already got the update go to applications-manage-all-market-uninstall updates and boom back to the old.

Is there anything to be afraid in the new Market? I'm going to flash newer MIUI build tomorrow and I'm not sure if it doesn't already have the new Market...

MIUI has the newest Market on it. The only drawback I find is that it is a bit harder to get to your downloaded apps and that it lags a bit, because it isn't optimized for the Milestone.

I've updated Google Apps in the Recovery! But now MarketEnabler doesn't work! How I can downgrade to the old (fashion ) market?

Go to Settings > Applications > All and choose Market and select Uninstall Updates. Reboot and you should be back in the old market. OP posted it if you already received the update.

Hi guys,
Atrackdog just gave me a new result for facebook apk, named 1.1.1 .. obviously it is not available on the market yet, but I remember the same thing happened with the 1.1.0 version "coming" from the droid...
Does anybody know where's this version coming from?
Maybe from the 2.0.1 update Verizon customers received.
Yes...that could be it...
I just wonder why in the world they don't release these updates in the market..they know they are working even on 1.5 or 1.6 devices...

They might know but that doesn't mean it has been officially tested and supported on 1.5/1.6. Those are two VERY different things.
hmmm wonder if anyone gonna post it
so i found a dump of the update and checked it and yea there is a updated facebook apk in there .. tried installing it on my g1 running cyan latest but no luck .. i cant even push it into the system builds .. gonna mess around with it a little more and see what happens
Yes! Great! Keep us updated then...! Thanks for that ;-)
Alright i have tried and tried but nothing .. here is a link to the dump for those who wanna give it a shot

Sounds like a sentence!
You're the man!
You can't use the normal one because it's ODEX'd.
I ran it through the deodex script -> Here is the new De-Odexed Facebook.apk (v1.1.1) View attachment Facebook.zip
RENAME IT FROM Facebook.zip to Facebook.apk (DON'T EXTRACT IT)
Now when you try to install it'll say it's not for this version of the phone. You're probably going to need to change your build.prop file to show SHOLES just like before the new Google Maps came out...

will that script work with any odex'd apk? For instance, I love the world clock from hero, but cannot stand the lag from the rom. would that work?
I used the terminal to install the app.
install /sdcard/backups/facebook.apk /system/sd/com.facebook.katana.apk
it didn't give me any errors, that should mean it work... right?
Well, I don't notice a difference, is there supposed to be one?

It works on some things... Like the MyFaves didn't work. It seemed to work on the facebook apk. I pushed it also into the /system/app but it won't show in the apps dropdown. I then tried to place on the sdcard and install with App Manager but it says "not for this phone" or something like that. Might have to change the build.prop to show the SHOLES keys instead. But it looks like the APK itself is ok.

Did you get this working on your phone ...... ? ...... also changing the build prop to sholes .. what kind of effect will that have on other apk either currently running or installed later

this one is the new facebook apk 1.1.1 ..pulled from the new droid update verzion just sent out .. however it wont install ..... ( at the moment )
Anybody being able to install this on a magic/dream then..?
I keep getting the same error "cannot install app on this phone" i guess for now I will stick with version 1.1.0....hopefully someone will find a fix for 1.1.1
The g1 has incorrect testkeys for 2.0 apps. You will have to edit the build.trout.prop, as was needed to get navigation to work. I do not know what other problems will come from doing this though. For me, even with replacing to old build.trout.prop, and erasing all traces of maps, I could not download the new version from the market without a wipe.
so i guess for now there is now "easy" install on a Mytouch/Magic for version 1.1.1 as it was for version 1.1.0.........
Is it even worth installing? Other than the extra ".1", does this version have anything we might want over 1.1.0?

googles new voice search issues!

Having problems installing the app keeps saying unsuccessfully installed... anyone else having this problem? I'm running Cyan's latest ROM.
yeah, this happens wth Cyanogen roms and Google apps, are you installing it or updating?

I'm attempting to install the new voice search app released by Google.
You should try uninstalling the old version before installing the new one.
yeah, this issue flooded the forums a few days ago, you can use titanium backup to uninstall the old one, restart, then install the new one. This is nothing unique to your phone anone with CM6 and wanted the new voice search had this issue.
ummm if you installed the latest cyanogen ROM, it already comes with the new updated voice search apps. there's no reason to attempt to install it again.

[Q] Update appli

Hello everyone! I have stupid question: Is there any way to update via android market applications that are not installed from the market? I am sure many of you out there have outdated apks that needs to be updated. So you install an apk and if it is outdated, market app should find it and update with the latest version existing in the market
Like i said maybe a stupid question
If an app is on the market then it will update .If its not from the market then it will not update unless updating is built into the app .

You may need to go into Settings -> Applications and find the Market and do a "force close" and then a "clear data".
The next time you open up the market it should rebuild the list of 'installed apps'.

Hic, same the problem, i think new version cannot clear this problem, because it must be use SuperUser Function ( Command CHMOD 777).
Check solution in here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166230&page=9
the new market is very heavy..need more time to load up compare to the previous one..
Since using this new market, I've found there are a lot of apps that are 'incompatible with my phone' even though i installed the same apps before (with a previous ROM) with the old market.
I just tried d/l Flash 10.3 which i previously had and there is no install button shown.
It's the same with many of the apps I've had previously.
I have Task 29'ed my phone many times and done totally fresh installs of MAGLDR, CWR and different roms but this still happens. Any ideas as to why, people??
Many thanks in advance
I have an EU HD2 running TyphooN CM7 v3.5.8 MAGLDR 1.13, CWR 4.0.1.4,
Before that i was mainly running Hyperdroid CM7 v2.1.0 HeadyHoneyBadger
Before installing the new Market, beware that The New Market WILL MAKE some apps unfindable from your phone (or findable but with no install button) AND "INCOMPATIBLE" from android market website.
That's what leaving me away from it.
Also, Market Enabler has no effect on those apps aforementioned.
Big thanks,men!
Thank you guy

Just uninstall and install an older market. Here is a great place to find them....http://www.mediafire.com/temasek#2f5c1db3in1h5,1. Dont forget to thank Temasek....awesome developer
tempest6253 said it was due to changing screen density. I'll change it back to normal and see what happens.
If that don't work then I'll try the old market again.
