[Q] New Android Market (2.2.6)

Hi,
I have seen that some people have posted the latest version of the Android Market (2.2.6) as an apk file.
My questions are:
- If it will this work on DHD and correctly overwrite the old Market app and the market update utility ?
- Is installing the app this way legal ?

So anyway I did install it and it works fine.
A much needed upgrade.

I believe you can use this new market .apk file without problems, but I've read that a new official update is cooming soon, so if you doubtful if it's illegal, just wait.

It is working well here. If anyone wants it
Taken from here
Go to Settings>Applications>Mange Applications>Market>Clear Data... then install.

For some reasson I can't update it =(...

Wiped old market installed fine

Uhhh for me it seems to be the other way around :S! The new one loads almost instantly, the old one took a few more seconds.

cud my longer start-up time be related to the fact that i downloaded the apk file from here and installed the update manually ?

Thanks for the post.
Runs perfectly on my DHD. Better than the old version actually. A very welcome market update.

See if that helps.

Could not install on CM 6.1 RC2... any ideas??

Works fine on my DHD with stock rom in Norway. Forgot to wipe data, but it didn't matter.
Will try on Galaxy Tab soon.
Not tested the shorter window for refund yet.

I wiped data after i downloaded and installed the New Market apk File. I still am facing the issue of waiting for the market to launch . Takes Abt 5s and is irritating. Is this normal ?

Is the new Market here in this thread for rooted phones?

[Q][Solved]Why are alot of apps not showing in the market?[Solved]

Hello,
Ever since I updated to CM7. I've run into the problem that certain apps aren't visible in the market on my phone. they are present on the online market but I'm unable to install them.
Does anyone else have the same problem ? and has anyone found a solution?
(Personally I'm running Wgspoelstra's v2.9 (based on nightly .29))
Problem is solved!
solution is posted on page 2 by NL_B!

I can't find Vendetta online in the market either, and i'm running stock (rooted)

hmm I had no such problems on stock just on 2.3.4 CM7

That's because the app isn't compatible with your device (in theory).
But most of the time, that's not true. Just search the apk using other ways and install it with your favourite file manager.

Vendetta is only for tabs btw

Then, maybe it's a region problem.
I can't help.

Well i cant find the apk on the internet so i cant push it to my phone to try
Can you find it in the market? Its called tweakers.net

I'm using the Spanish May version of the stock rom, rooted and installed yesterday.
I can find the app in Market.

Check your "Market" parameters
Maybe you have enabled "content filtering" by mistake as I did once causing a lot of apps not to be displayed...

What you need to do is install google apps one more time. http://goo-inside.me/google-apps/. Use the 20110307 Universal, download it and install it from recovery like how you install the CM7.
I'm familiar with this problem. WG forget to include some components from the google apps.

Use Eris Market Fix (if you are rooted). Worked perfect for me. You can find it market.

Thanks,
I gave it a try, at first I thought It hadnt worked so i rebooted the phone and read the site and it said it would work after the 2nd or 3rd market 'start' and it actually did! awsome

Hi eniux, actually the best way to reset the market (in case it won't download, happened to me couple of times) is to clear the market data.
Go to settings, applications, click on market, clear data.
If you enter the market it will ask you to agree with terms, condition, etc. After this everything will work as it should.

[Q] How do I install apps not supported from the Play Store?

Hello everyone,
I recently rooted my KF HD 8.9 and installed the Play Store. All is well and most of the apps I want installed without an issue.
However there's one app that I swear by that isn't "supported on this device". Chrome.
I ended up sideloading an APK I grabbed from the web but that's neither ideal and it's not a current version.
My question is:
Is there a way to bypass the "not supported" message via an app like Market Enabler?
OR
Is there another (I'd imagine legal) way to obtain the current APK from an alternate website?

Not sure if this will help you but I'll share my method. What I do is just download whatever app I need to my SGS1 and back it up with Titanium Backup. Then, I mount it to my PC and pull the .apk out of the TitaniumBackup folder and side load it. I did this with Nova Launcher and HD Widgets and so far everything is working wonderfully.

But thank you for the suggestion.

Install the 1mobile market app; it keeps track of the last version and do the upgrade just like google play.

It will not help because it will redirect you into Google play

Apktop.com
Since chrome is free then this is legal

Nope, the 1mobile market app does the upgrade by itself.
It even upgrades sideloaded apps
btw... it will mark the kindle skype app as outdataded, do not, i repeat do not substitute the kindle skype with the market skype.

BlackBerry Mod

THIS IS FOR ANDROID 6.0+ ONLY!!!
This is mod I use on my LG V10.
Package was originally created as an add-on for Eliminater74's Rom.
I just ported it over as a flashable zip for my use but I figured I'd share.
Put zip on your external sd card and flash from twrp.
You will get a few "BlackBerry services not working " in the beginning but they will soon go away after some usage. These apps were on the BlackBerry Priv and are pretty useful especially the Hub. If there are some apps you don't like, just uninstall or freeze with titanium backup.
There is a launcher, contacts, calendar, bbhub, password keeper..... just a bunch of stuff.
Enjoy

Tells me that I need to upgrade the Blackberry Services.
When I can click Yes - it takes me to the Google app store and there says that my device isn't compatible...

Do you use titanium backup? If so, under preferences you can use market doctor to attach app links to play store and that should help. But, j700h is outside the U.S.? That might be the issue but I can't say for sure. Try market doctor and let me know please.
Thanks.

- Just looked it up. Didn't even know about that page. So did you use the BlackBerry manager as described?

Yes, installed the Blackberry Manager by Colbalt and it lets you install all the apps.
I prefer however downloading the folders from Colbalt (just check one of the previous posts on the thread) and install the apps I like (blackberry hub, calendar and keyboard) -the rest are just average (contacts on MM is way better than that of BB)

Missing Android Pay?

I just have to send my OP3T back for RMA, so I decided to lock it's bootloader, remove the dm verity warning, etc., to make sure it looks like an original one. The process involved flashing OOS 3.5.4 back to my phone and when I booted it up, I was surprised to see an "Android Pay" icon in my application list, which I never saw so far (not on the original phone, not when I flashed other stock OS versions). At the end of the process I updated OOS 3.5.4 to 4.1.6 via local update and the Android Pay icon is no longer there.
Does anybody know why? Is Android Pay no longer part of Oxygen OS? Is there a way to get it back?
Thanks!

Yeah, the app is probably frozen. You'd need to unfreeze it by using some app manager or soemthing like TitaniumBU or that warez app, idk if I should be naming it.

Android Pay is not yet available in all countries and banks. It is still on your phone but hidden. Even if you get it back, it might not work if it is not available in your country.
However, there is a way to get it back. This worked for me, not sure whether this will work for you.
1. Install XDA app.
2. Navigate to Apps screen.
3. Check for updates.
4. If you are having an older version of Android Pay on your phone you will be able to see Android Pay with update option.
5. Update the app via XDA application.
6. Once this is done, you can launch Android Pay.
I am from India and not sure whether this worked because Google has plans to launch Android Pay in India.
