Market update

I have a weird issue and I'm not sure what's going on.
A few days ago I noticed that the market layout got changed a little bit. The three tabs on top changed to Apps|Games|T-mobile. Going to the t-mobile tab shows recommendations from t-mobile. The next day I noticed that it was gone and back to the original Apps|Games|Downloads, and the weird part is that now the market icon is back to the 1.6 one (I've had the android 2.0 icon for a while since I'm running cyanogen).
Oh and I checked with aTrackdog and it says I have Market v1.66 and there's a v1.71 available. Any idea what's going on?
I have a G1 on t-mobile and running CM v4.2.9.1
edit: I feel like this is an app issue and not an issue with the ROM, hence the posting in the apps section. Also, it happened randomly and not immediately after I updated to the newest CM release or something.

Things just get jittery when running apps2sd which you probably are.
I didn't know rooted phones were suppose to get that Update.
So idk you really shouldn't be getting OTA updates like that ESPESH from Tmobile.

So there was actually an update for the market for non-rooted G1 users on t-mo? When did that roll out?

Yea, it's been rolling out/bloggers/sites have been asking if anyone has gotten and it's seemed like it was rolling out, then got pulled back and delayed a lot.
But all the Update does it replace Mydownloads with Tmobiles lame apps.
But the main part about this is it allows you to buy applications and place the cost on your tmobile bill so you don't nessicarily need a credit card which is really cool.
But I'm pretty sure Cyan already twatted it's not likely to get ported to rooted phones or something like that which is understandable since it deals with Tmobile's billing info.

Oh okay thanks for the clarification. It's weird that the update got rolled out to me. I guess it didn't go through the regular OTA update 'channels' or something. I follow a few android blogs and didn't see any mention of it. Anyway I don't really care about adding the cost to my bill, both options are the same to me. As for the tab, yeah the t-mo tab is pretty stupid, I don't care about their recommendations, plus it means it's an extra click to get to my downloads.
So I guess in theory if I reflash the ROM I should at least get the android 2.0 market icon back? I'm gonna wait til tomorrow and try it (since I guess Cyanogen is releasing an update tomorrow)

The change has NOTHING to do with having a rooted phone. In fact, it has nothing to do with the application itself. It is all on the server end.
There are a few bugs that they need to work out before deploying it to the masses. I have been running Cyan's newest ROM since it was released and my tabs have changed from Download to Tmobile and back. Why? Because it's coming from Google's server as such.

Did your icon also revert to the 1.6 one? Anyway I guess that's good news. Means that future changes like this will also roll out to rooted phones.

I really don't think a T Mobile Recomonded tab in the Android market is coming from the Google Server I think it's Tmobile controlling it's phones like when they took the Tether app off the US market and how the Droids market is different than others.

Flashed the newest CM today and it didn't fix the market icon, still have the 1.6 one. It's not a big issue but I just find it weird that the icon got reverted back (if it's just server side changes the icon shouldn't be affected).

I noticed the same thing. I had the default Market, a few days later I noticed it had a T-Mobile button then all of the sudden it appears to be back to the default.
I just simply gave up and said whatever anymore.

verizon already has the new market with VERIZON were our downloads are.
I also have the updated market in a nandroid from cyans rom.

Wait.. so you guys counted to 40 and then turned off your data connection?

Good to hear guys, I waited 35 sec. Badcam3 yes thats when you cut off data. Some people have reported over 60 sec, some 15. Good luck!

No joy on O2 uk.

It worked for my unbrand asia HD7, Its great thanks !!!

it works kinda
Okay so I tried this and it updates successfully (had to wait nearly 60 second)
I was successfully running NoDo and I tested almost everything, but
DNS was not working, I tried over Wifi everything was fine, tried my data connection and got the error message "could not find DNS server.
I'm restoring my phone using zune, and see if that resolves it.
If that does, I'm just going to bite the bullet and unbrand that SOB with the NoDo rom using the method outlined by ansar here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1001019
Edit:
I actually I think it's a t-mobile issue, I left my nexus at home so I can't verify. To make matters worse I hard reset my phone, after downgrading my rom version. FUC*!!!
Edit 2:29Pm 03/30/2011
Yes it was a t-mobile thing. Hardreset and downgraded for no reason. Good news as soon as I reconnected to Zune I got NoDo update immediately
-good part is, Zune restore works flawlessly for those who are wondering.

Though I like to think I have pretty good sense of time, I used my watch just to be extra precise.

Hey guys, I wanted to clear some things up for you guys since some seem a bit confused about the timing.
The timing differs for EVERYONE! You need to time how long it says "checking for updates" or whatever. Once you get that time, lets call it "n", you do it again (with cellular data on). Before you search for an update again, I went to the "phone updates" in the settings tab, make sure the "check for updates via cellular data" is checked, you want to stay here while zune looks for your update. Now manually search for an update and at approximately (n-1)seconds you want to uncheck that box. Your phone should show a notification that says there's an update available.
IF IT IS TOO LONG OF A READ, BASICALLY EVERYONES TIMING IS DIFFERENT!

It worked on 3rd attempt due to timing. But it is okay. And it kept itself jailbroken and I can sideload anything just like before.
Great.
PS: This should be pinned, IMHO.

Help for those with US T-Mobile HD7 trying to NODO update

I hope this helps any of you trying to get the copy/paste and other updates on your T-Mobile HD7. I have tried the timing trick to get the updates but never could get it to work and once I thought I did but my phone became locked again plus I started getting microsoft messages telling me to uninstall apps. Here is what I did.
1. I flashed my phone with this ROM RUU_Schubert_TMOUS_1.20.531.01_Radio_5.51.09.11a_22.31.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE
2. I unlocked phone with Chevron then did the prevent relock.xap
3. Pulled my sim card out
4. Used flight mode
5. connected to Zune and crossed my fingers
That was it I now have version 7392 and am happy as can be. If this doesnt work for some maybe I was just lucky but figured I would share my experience to others.

It works but you don't have to put it flight mode, or at least I didn't have to. Mine is all up to date and still unlocked. Just not using that phone right now.
Sent from my wickedly brilliant Virtuos Fusion 3.0 Android powered myTouch 4G using XDA Premium App

yeah you are probably right about the flight mode. I was just paranoid about having to re-flash my phone and redoing everything again.

It's a pain to have to set everything up again if you already had it set up but it's worth it if you want it to remain unlocked after the NO Do update and the security update.

so i installed my 32 gig card the other night and all has been good until tonight when i tried exactly what i had posted to get the updates to work and of course it didnt work. maybe I need to use a different Prevent Relock xap. if anyone knows a better one to use please message me so i can do the updates. until then i guess i will just have to live without copy/paste : ( or maybe the flight mode was the key. i didnt use it this time. i will try that and get back to yall
UPDATE- so just got it to work. this time I did use flight mode but I also used a different xap file to prevent relock so i would say the xap file would be the reason it worked but could also be flight mode. im tired and not going to try it again so we may never know but use unlockit.xap and all will be well.

I updated via the RUU PG posted earlier, so I am running .52 In my experience, I am still getting the notification that my software is up to date. If anyone can point to the .567 RUU or has other means of getting my unrooted/locked/100% stock device updated, it would be much appreciated
(I am hoping that stupid glitch with clicking links is worked out.)

Nice!!! This is why I check this forum close to everyday . It works for me. I have stock software and haven't messed with it.

Can't Get In
I've tried about a dozen times, but I get a "Server Unavailable" error message each time. So, either the official update in not available everywhere yet, or everyone else is hogging the server bandwidth. I started trying about 1 p.m. CDT when I first saw this thread.
I have a stock Vivid.
I'll keep trying.

Yea give it a while.Its not even posted on HTC's site yet.

There's an issue with the update. It was failing halfway through for me, so I called AT&T. Of course, the person I spoke to is a bumbling idiot, so they directed me towards HTC. HTC confirmed the issue to me and said they are working on a fix as well as there being no timetable for the fix. Is anyone else having an issue updating OTA? Mine is downloading fine and my phone turns of and goes to a screen with progress bar. About a quarter of a way through the progress, I get an error icon.

Thanks for the update. Maybe it's just as well I couldn't get in. I think I'll wait until I see more positive news here.

Update went smoothly and its now running on my phone. The best part is how much faster the interface is.

This doesn't seem to be working for me. When I click on check for update, it just say mines is up to date, but i'm on 2.3.4
I unlocked my bootloader, and rooted device, but I relocked my bootloader so I could do OTA. I'm still on the stock software, no ROMS or anything yet.

That works thank you!

My update went off without a hitch. I am experiencing one side affect though... Seems that the phone no longer sees the AT&T Microcell.
I did noticed the under Base Band the radio did change, so I wonder if this is the root cause.
Is anyone else that has the MicroCell having this issue?

I suspect it was failing halfway through for you because you either froze or deleted some of the bloatware that came with the phone. The installer checks for those, and if it doesn't find them, the update will abort.
My phone was completely stock and unrooted and the update was installed and running in less than 10 minutes.
I don't think there is anything wrong with the update, though, as long as you haven't monkeyed around with your phone.

Not the greatest screen shots... will try to upload better shots if anyone is intrested.

Could you please tell us if its having this issue with the browser?
When you click on a bookmark after waking up the phone or randomly does it load the last page you were on instead of the bookmark you click?
Wondering because im using PG's RUU and it has this issue with the browser.

One of the users hopefully before doing the update will copy the ota off device to computer and upload somewhere for the cooks to start with higher build 3.26.502.56710RD

That's been my experience, but I stopped using the HTC browser. Download Chrome Beta, then go into app associations in the setting menu and make it the default app for URLs/links.
The issue doesn't happen with Chrome...and Chrome is a much better browser anyway IMO.

That's everyone's answer but there should be a fix for the default browser for people that like to use the HTC bookmark widget.

same situation here... waiting for solution

Was pleased to get the update today... 3 updates in total...
Lovin the new homescreen... :good:
Also, the new colours are great... Even the old colours look better (red/orange)... They really have body, like an amoled without an amoled...

No "Trick", no Tool...
Just go to Zune and ... hey there's an UPDATE.
Love new Homescreen.
And my Lumia 710 just wait for it.

Does this mean the HD7s will get it too?
The relation between this 2 models confuses me and I couldn't find a hd7s specific forum
(Maybe I'm a n00b... Like the ones mentioned in the video haha)

The trick method with zune (pulling out the cable) didn't work for me for the last two days, but I had to do a hard reset on the phone and changed the system locale to English (Canada), and that seemed to get the update done - I had seen a bunch of Canadians getting the update, so I tried this and it worked!

US T-Mobile HD7 upgrade to 7.8
Has anyone gotten upgrade to 7.8 on their phone?
I tried the disconnect method, but no joy.

Use Seven-Eighter, it worked for me.
Don't forget to select all languages you have installed to update.

Spanish HD7 updated to 7.8!
Hi, I just wanna share my experience with you:
NOTE 1: First of all, try a normal update on Zune without doing any special trick, Many people is updating the device without any special action!
NOTE 2: There are some data consumption related bugs. Check them here.
This has been my experience:
There are 3 updates to install, as previously mentioned: 7.10.8779.8 --> 7.10.8783.12 --> 7.10.8858.136
These are the steps to follow on each update, taken from several posts over the net as this:
1) Disconnect WiFi and other data connections on the device.
2) Connect device to Zune
3) Go to settings->phone->update
4) While searching for updates for the device count to 5 and disconnect internet on your computer (WiFi, ethernet, whatever...).
5) Wait about 30 seconds for the Zune response.
6) If "no updates available" or "error searching" or similar response is shown, go to another option in the left menu and then repeat the process from step 3. If "update found", go to Step 7.
7) Reconnect Internet access (ethernet, WiFi...) on your computer (not the phone).
8) Follow instructions to install the update
Some notes:
- I have spent more than 15 tries to make Zune show the update. It depends on Internet/computer response when searching to Microsoft update servers. If 5 seconds don't work for you, try changing the wait time. In my case, started with 1 second, then 2, then 3... 5 resulted to be the perfect one. The second and third update only used 3 search attemps. Using wireshark may help, look at instructions explained by user "medeis" on a comment in this page: here.
- 1st update is very slow, the second and the third is much faster (no backup required as in first).
- Repeat this procedure for every update (3 in total).
It worked for me on my unbranded HTC HD7 from Spain. It runs very smoothly, but nothing special apart from the new tiles (ok, great), accent colors (unnecessary, don't know why I can't choose one from a color picker...) and lock screen (my child is more beautiful thant any bing image...)
Cheers,
xdomingo

i think , removing simcard ! is only thing we need. works for me in first hours 7.8 coming ...

I'm still wondering about this. I haven't heard anything about updates for the HD7S at all and I've been searching for two days.

no tricks, no magic or "quantum healing" pseudoscience (for you new age ignorants)
from now on, xda-developers.com can LOL at this assholes:
www.wpcentral.com/htc-abandoning-hd7-no-plans-release-windows-phone-78-update
ROFL!!!
The moral in this tale: WPCentral are STUPIDS

Question for anyone who streams music over bluetooth; how is the sound quality? In previous versions, audio bitrates were purposely crippled in the registry and it sounded awful. Did they fix that? Zune has started to badger me about this update as well, and I'm tempted to update. I'm running a modded firmware just to get around the bluetooth issue and don't want to update if it's just going to get me crappy sound quality again...
