I want to buy Sprinkle and I cannot!!
Doesn't say they're incompatible for me...
are you looking at sprinkle free? you won't even see the full version if browsing on your phone.

Both show up just fine on my phone. I even downloaded and played it. I'm running CM7 though. Could be a firmware difference.
Just checked and got the same problem with stock rom. Says that device is not compatible, any solutions except flashing cm?

Probably not, no.
Sounds like a cache size problem. I believe stock firmware only allows a ~30mb cache size for downloading apps from the market. That means, in the event that the app is too large, it simply cannot download and install the entire app. But this is only the market's download cache.
A simple solution is to install the apk file seperate from using the market app. There's also a terminal fix that creates are larger, temporary cache. I can't remember the command off the top of my head, but I'm sure a quick search will produce positive results. I'm sure a large portion of custom ROMs—especially those the farthest away from stock—have this issue rectified. If not, search for the workaroud or install the apk yourself.
Good luck!
Ok let me explain more.
I have purchased Samurai II Vengeance from the market a while back. The apk size is a little over 40mb but it is still available for purchase and I was able to download it.
With the new market, even I have purchased the app, Samurai II Vengeance is not being displayed in the market. Not even under my purchased apps.
The problem is even i can bypass the cache problem by running some script to increase my cache size, those apps are not showing up so I cannot download even I know my cache size is big enough.
Just wanted to chime in here. Using a JVT ROM with a repartitioned device that has 60MB cache - Market version is 3.3.11. Searching for "third blade" as an example, does not return the app. It's completely hidden. Using the market website, the app shows "This item is not compatible with your device."

Why not try uninstalling market updates?
it's a market problem
Gun bros is working fine here
use chainfire 3d app from the market... install nvidia and qualcomm plugins (explained in chainfires post)... and select market fix... all apps would be restored... the new market only shows power vr based apps and doesnt shw the rest... but we always ve brilliant chainfire and his apps for the rescue...

Yes, it is a cache problem, and Yes making a "virtual cache partition" does make it bigger (i now have ~52 mb cache)...BUT, the Market doesn't know that my cache is bigger now! it still shows larger apps as "incompatible"
Is there a way to bypass these market restrictions somehow?
ps: reason i'm so desperate, is "World of Goo" just landed in android market!! I can run the Demo (28mb) alright, but full version is still "incompatible" (47mb). I'm willing to pay! just give me a chance!
i have same problem too. i cant install blood and glory.
error is " errorwhile downloading "BLOOD & GLORY ". There is insufficient space on the device." but i installed BLOOD % GLORY ( NR ) version.
another error is smurf's village isnt available for your device.
my rom is cm7
I think it's cache problem alright. The easiest way, I think, is to go CM7

Have fun!
I installed after deleting the existing market apk. It force closes every time I try to use it. I cannot move it or copy it to system apps. I can put it in either internal memory or on the SD card. I can accept market terms and start it but then it force closes. I tried clearing data, cache and rebooting but same force close every time. I did not delete market updater apk. Any suggestions? I have the original market reinstalled until I can come up with a solution.
Woah, that's a huge change. o.o
I recommend getting the sgs tools app from the market. It has this included now and you don't have to worry about sideloading or moving the apk with a file manager or adv commands. The new market is really nice.
This is my captivate. There are many like it buy this one is mine.
works on cm6.1 beta 3
Worked on Perception 8. Just copied it over to my sdcard and installed it using the normal installer. Thanks man! It looks awesome.

Looks/works well but where's the update all button? Does it only appear only when there are more than one apps to update?

New market seems like a step backwards in some ways. I can see the need to reduce the refund time, but 15 minutes is nuts. Also, removing the tabs? That's just a mess.
Bring the tabs back, and make refund time 3 hours, and I'm a happy guy.
I also think it's a step backwards in a lot of ways. Yeah, that nice green design header looks cool... but it dominates the damn screen. Annoying!

Yea... but you can scroll around and lose the header once you start browsing.
Didn't have any issues after installing it - search feature worked.
Just downloaded straight onto my phone and used the base installer (no droid explorer, astro etc..) and it worked fine.
Also you get the "update all" on the top button under your downloads if you have multiple updates - which I did
Thanks again for this.
Ok this is my second attempt to get an answer for the issues I'm experiencing.
Hopefully someone out there knows whats up and can give me a real solution.
I will pay the person $40US via PayPal if you can help me solve the issues listed below.
Here we go...
I can flash any rom or kernal successfully, however once booted I can not restore TIBU or install anything from market. When I click ok on download at market is does nothing, just allows me to repeatedly click on download icon. But never begins download. The second issue is if I try to restore backups using TIBU, they never install, just sit there as if they are installing, but never do. Also if I try to install any apps sitting on my ext-sd, they do the same as TIBU, just sit there showing they are installing, but never do.
Having said all that! If I flash to stock JF6, everything works fine, no issues whatsoever.
Now I have repeated this process at least a dozen times with no changes. I have flashed just about every custom rom with the exact same results. But again, flashing back to stock, zero issues.
Please do not suggest I run market fix, as this does not explain my other issues with TIBU or installing apps from ext-sd.
Others have suggested using android id changer after I have installed custom rom, the issue there is I can never install it from market after I have flashed custom rom because of the above issues.
Please help, this is driving me crazy and thanks in advance to those that know what's going on and can direct me to a solution.
NOTE: Yes I do a Master Clear & Clean Dalvik cache after every flash !! After flashing to stock, I can root and modify settings file under dbdata to allow third party apps with no issues. All issues are directly related to custom roms only!

Maybe an obvious question: Have you tried clearing the data and cache for the market.

Obligatory flame about not reading the post.
Please try the below steps as they are so it would be easy to debug.
1. Backup ur data from internal SD to PC
2. Use one click to come to stock (don't root or install any stuff here, except enabling USB debugging)
3. Connect to computer, and mount drives
4. Quick format the internal SD on windows (if u r on windows; telling this cos I use windows)
5. Copy the ROM in my signature (dilligaf's 7.x) onto ur SD card
6. Reboot into recovery and install the ROM (do not use TiBu or do anything else at this point)
7. Go to settings and add ur market linked gmail account
Try connecting to market now n see if that works.
Hi guys,
earlier today I updated my I9000 to XXJVR
I found the market in the rom is version 3.0.26
When I start downloading apps, market tell me there are insufficient space on my phone and download was cancelled. but my phone clearly has more than enough storage (over 1 GB for app and over 3G on SD card)
After re-installing market - no luck
After wiping download manager - no luck
After wiping cache - no luck
After wiping dalvik cache - no luck
After doing factory reset - no luck
Is there any way to fix this?
edit: Go back to 2.3.6, you can find the app in xda
That is a lingering issue some people are having with the new, improved Market.
Try going to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Market and click Uninstall Upgrade.
If you don't have that option, download an earlier version of the Market or Gapps (should be in the Apps forum or at http://goo-inside.me/gapps), uninstall the Market using TB then install the old market.apk/flash the older Gapps.
i have no same, but have other problems with Market versions above 3.0.xx. I think , it is not problem with our phone, this is one from many problems Google Android Market. I was asked Google many times for fixing different issues (buyed apk not upgradable, than free version can downloading, not compatibile with SGS, and etc problems), but still stay big problems with devices Market.

Sad
I pretty like the new market layout
seems i have to use the old market for the time being.
The oldest market coming with the rom is just 3.0.26, and that market is not helping either
Edit: Going back to market 2.3.6 solved everything, let's hope it won't update itself...
I had the same problem but only with certain apps (Pocket Legends was one). It was because I had lagfix enabled, and this meant the market would not install apps over something like 28MB. Disabling lagfix sorted it out, and the new market seems to work fine for me now. Most apps install ok, but updating the big ones means manually downloading the apk from somewhere and installing it, rather than through the market.
Not sure if it's the same problem though, as I would expect the same behaviour on the previous market also...
I had the same problem, but my market automaticly update itself to 3.1.5 ;/ , how can i freeze updating ?
Mine is 3.0.27 and gives insufficient space error while downloading moto x mayhem
If you can't revert back to v2.3.6 then try installing thru this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15992973#post15992973
After that I needed to clear data for "Download Manager" and "Market" in Settings->Applications->Manage->All.

Titanium Backup can freeze the Market Updater, if I recall correctly.
My soloution was
reverting to old market with old market.apk app located on these forums
reboot
clear cache
simple...go to applications>all>market>stop>clear data....then retry to download anything
Insufficient space - Problem Solved!!
the problem arises coz of limited Cache and the new market strictly uses /cache partition which is just ~27mb.
The best solution I've found is to use a Virtual partition of larger size for that cache.. here's a link to the thread with instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188972
When i found you can actually do something like this, i fell in love with android all over again!
ps: i'd recommend the cwm flashable version on the same thread, as its more permanent unless u delete the script manually..
You can flash Semaphore kernel and enable 50 mb cache. It should help.

I'll on darky 10.2 and i had the same problem since update to the new market.
clearing caches did not help, but i uninstalled updates from manage applications it worked fine.

"Market Fix" App fixed this problem
I had the same problem & I used Market Fix App & it worked.
After using it I have downloaded 4-5 apps of around 20MB each & no problem.

I've been having issues downloading apps larger then 20Mbs from the Android Market after updating to 3.0.27. Noticed there was a 3.1.3 floating around so I decided to install it and see if it helps with no luck. The error I usually get is insufficient space on the device. Some apps like Star Legends will download but then give me an incorrectly signed error. Other then using an alternative market (since the apps on the Android Market seem to be more frequently updated) is there any other work around? Or has anyone managed to hack the newest Android Market into bypassing that insufficient space check or something?
*edit* Just noticed I managed to post this in the Themes and Apps section... Sorry bout that could I get a mod to move to the Q&A Please?
Use titanium backup to integrate updates of system apps into rom and remove orphan data.
This solves it for me.
I'll give it a try (once I figure out what you mean lol) and report back.
*edit* Alright I gave it a shot but only Maps and YouTube were in the Integrate updates of system apps into ROM and the Remove Orphan Data was empty... Suppose I should note that I have Market version 3.1.3 installed now.

I'm on 3.0.27, doing that seems to work for me. Try rebooting after doing the titanium stuff.

i had the issue while trying to install a larger app and this fixed it
when flashing this i also cleared /cache and dalvik through recovery
merging updates to system doesnt seem to solve the problem every time, but this does, i tested it on both 3.0.27 and 3.1.3 markets
Doesn't seem to work for me. I read somewhere, I think on the Samsung Infuse board, that google changed the download location from /data to /cache which prevents us from downloading larger apps. I don't know enough about android programming to switch it back, but I'm sure someone here does!!

The download location on the Capt has always been /cache. After the download it's installed to /data. The /cache partition is only 30M big which is why we can't download anything larger than that.

If the download location has always been to the cache, why has it suddenly stopped working? I can uninstall the Market update and download large apps just fine. It doesn't make any sense for it to stop working unless there was a change in the way the download process works. My hardware doesn't change by uninstalling the update so it can't be a hardware issue.

It seems a little further digging and someone else has found a way to get it to work. Check out haloimplants' solution here.
Can anyone provide a guide on how to install/configure mounts2sd for the Nexus One on Jelly Bean (CM 10.1) so that I can move my apps from my internal memory to my sd-ext?
I installed the app from Google Play and had nothing but trouble with it. It initially says that busybox isn't configured properly and that the init.d script is either missing or not installed. I proceed to configure busybox and install the init.d script, but after rebooting my "downloaded" apps disappear. These downloaded apps include the Google Play Store and mounts2sd! So even if I wanted to reverse the process, I can't because the app is gone.
I would appreciate if anyone could explain how to do this properly since there is very limited space on the Nexus One, especially after installing Jelly Bean on a custom HBOOT.
Thanks!
I think you have to put mounts2sd.zip on your SD card and flash it from recovery. That's how I use it and it's really straight forward if you have flashed anything before. I wasn't aware it could be installed as an app from playstore. Are you sure it's notjust a GUI for the script?

Nope, you should be fine with that. However, I recommend you flash it on right after you flash the ROM and before you install any apps.

I'm having tons of trouble with the app. I can't get it to work..I must be missing something. I've tried flashing it right after installing the rom (CM 10.1). I've tried installing it from the app store. I've even tried SuperSu just to see if something weird was happening there. I probably reflashed the rom like 5 times last night trying different ways of installing Mounts2SD.
Could it be that I used 4EXT Recovery RC9? I dunno how much of an effect using that recovery may have had since it is in testing..

What kind of problems are you having? Can you be more specific?
How to install on ROM MIUIv5
First: Mounts2SD is such a great tool!! Incredbly super software!
On Nexus One with 32GB sd card:
What best settings would you recommend in mounts2SD?
Is it good to make a swap partition? 1GB?
Which on should be set to sd-card? Apps, data, Cache & Dalvik-Cache and even System Apps?
One point:
If i configure the cache&system cache to be in internal memory, then the internal memory is quite full, so it's impossible to install bigger apps from play store. This only works, if i keep everything to sd-memory so that the internal memory is free. Now I found the setting "System > Storage Treshold". Would this one help with this problem?
But the max. setting is 10% (=20MB on Nexus1). Would that help even with bigger apps (> 20 MB) to install?
I now have all (except system apps) moved to sd, so that i can install bigger apps from play store, but my Nexus One it now very slow and constantly removing Apps from memory etc.
Who can give some hints?
Regards, Marc
I think better use INT2EXT to partition
