Since it seems impossible to read anything on cyanogens experimental thread without page after page of complaints that apps are not working. This has nothing to do with his ROM (for the most part), and should not be clogging up that thread. My suggestion is if there is an app issue, post it here for others to discuss, or just stay off of experimental builds.
I will begin with Bluex not working. The new framework will not allow root access to bluex. I have contacted the dev, but no response. The devs blog has not been touched in a few months, and I worry it has been abandoned.
Well I will keep this list up to date.
Power Manager: some icons to desable certain functions don't work (GPS)
T-Mobile My Account: Quick Tools tab causes FC
dg alert classic
I've had a problem with dg alert classic, I've uninstalled and reinstalled all to no avail, and this is the best app for managing ringtones and alerts
these havent worked for me:
Bluex - Bluetooth Fileshare: can send but not recieve (with root) as error appears when enabling server.
Toggle Settings: app force closes
Taskiller: widget doesnt update as it should (rest of the app works fine)
will update if i find more
Weather Channel and Weatherbug Elite: A 8x8 portion of the map wont update.
Youtube downloader: When trying to open a video it reboots the phone entirely. Fixed Permisions and running fine now. Im dumb =P
Amazon Mobile: Cannot Press the I accept button. ( I got around this by just copying the datastore.xml file from my wife's G1.)
Gameboid: Im not 100% sure this is a donut issue but nothing will play for me.
wysinc plus doesnt work for me
power manager 1.6 force closes before starting
MixZing - Cant access settings.
Alarming! - I made a post about in in a separate thread, but the alarm volume just is horrible!! Wouldn't wake up a baby even with V7 audio mod.

If you wiped data and then upgraded to donut you need to reinstall the apk/program. I had that problem with force closes as soon as I clicked on the program before. A simple reinstall will do the trick and no its not a CM or Donut issue, thats just the way that is lol.
ToggleSettings and Useful switcher dont work. Most likely because the donut framework is all different

Verified Weather app with the 8x8 block in the lower left not updating. (Weather Channel app in my test).
Havent tried Youtube app yet. I remember cyan fixing something with this a couple revisions back. Are you running the latest (4.1.10.1 or 4.1.11.1?)
Can also verify on the Weather Channel 8x8 block not updating. This problem came up a while ago..On one of Cyan's recent experimental ROM's. probably 4.1.4. I am using his most recent, 4.1.11.1, and the problem still exists. Tried reinstalling, doesn't work. the 8x8 block seems to appear on apps other than google maps, that use the map function. Places Directory is another app that has that 8x8 block.

I need to edit the post on that one, Youtube downloader only crashes my phone when opening a video from inside that app. I can use SUFBS and open the videos just fine once they are downloaded. Im running 11.1.....UPDATE lol as I was typing this I though hey I should fix permissions and see if that helps. It works fine now =P
Yaboiaj THanks for the tip on Gameboid!

Donut issues
I have found that somthing has changed with the way SQL works.
What i have noticed if u have an app that was previously installed that needed to create a table it works fine on donut but if you happened to wipe or delete your tables when going to donut alot of apps fail trying to create a new table. I am not saying this is the case for all apps.. but 3 of my own i had to recode to use tables a little differently and a few other apps im seeing identicle error logs as my apps were giving
Moxier Mail doesn't seem to work with Donut. You can setup your account sync, but after the setup is complete and it tries to switch to the main mail list screen, FC.
I post this thread because out seems no has yet to acknowledge this problem with the market.it seem in the market display paid app icon doesn't display neither dose the paid apps.

1) You have posted in the wrong forum.
2) Market works fine in 2.2 unless you flashed one of the pre-release builds.
The sticky at the top of the N1 gen forum tells you in bold NOT TO ASK QUESTIONS.
Ask them in the Q/A section. Gen section is for news, tips only...

I'm having the same, or very similar problems. Basically, I'm seeing paid apps, and my purchases, but I'm not seeing the "Top Paid" tab, nor is the Market acting in any sane or rational way. For example, I install an app, and the notification bar will say downloading, then installing, then the notification that it installed. In the Market download window, though, I see it download, then switch to installing, but never get beyond that.
What started all this with me was this. Using Linda File Manager, I uninstalled a couple of apps (was trying out the feature since I was in there). In this case, it was Google Earth (don't really use it), and a Pirate game that I never grocked. Anyway, in the Market they wouldn't leave my list in the Downloads, so I wiped the cache and data in the Market app in Settings > Applications > Manage Applications.
After that, all my apps appeared as uninstalled in the downloads window, and the issue with installation started. First thing I did was try and reinstall all the apps, and ended up with a huge list of apps that were installed, but were marked as still installing by the market. Killing the market app cleared out the hung install progress bars. The other thing that started happening was that not all of my installed apps appeared in my download list. KO Boxing, for example was on the featured list as upgradable, but it wasn't in my download list to upgrade.
Ultimately, what I decided to do was wipe the phone and see what happened. After wipe, I logged in and FRF91 didn't restore my apps like it had in the past. In fact, the market was exactly the same as it was before the wipe, with all my apps showing as free or purchased. Installing issue was also the same. Now, I know that Google backs up the settings, so I thought maybe that had something to do with it. I wiped again, but in the configuration process post-wipe, I selected for Google to not restore from backup (hit menu in the setup when you are entering your username/password). This brought me through the process much quicker, but with no change in the market function.
So, I'm still without a "Top Paid" tab, nor with a all together sane Download window. It's frustrating the heck out of me, and I'm about to go back to whatever the 2.1-r1 release was (ERE27?) and see if that makes any different.
The ROM I'm running is the FRF91 full release from lox_dev:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715799
If T-Mobile is doing the OTA's to FroYo from 2.1-r1, then maybe I'll let it do it's own thing today and then see if that fixes it. Ugh.

The above snipped sections are my story too.
Updated last week manually from ERE27 to FRF85b to FRF91 using the official stock clients each time. Non rooted N1. I spent 6 hours on Friday night trying to sort this..
I've got posts up on the Google Nexus One forums also and am holding where I am for a definitive fix. It's very frustrating though..
Go to menu>applications> magage applications> all apps> market then force quit and clear data and whatever else is in there.

I tried that on Friday night. Once I'd done that, none of my installed apps showed in the Downloads section.
That's why I did a full wipe and set the phone back up. Luckily I was still able to find all my apps, including the purchased ones. However the missing 'Top Paid' button and slow market performance persisted.
So, for fun, I pushed back to ERE27 (2.1-r1) and same issue. No "Top Paid" in the Market, and issues with installation. This is complete wipe, nothing installed on the phone after imaging.
I let it upgrade to FRF91, which didn't change anything. I'm now pretty convinced that whatever this is is completely account related on the Google server side of things, and it needs to be sorted out by them
Guess I'll have to figure out who to contact for support from Google :/

I'm working the Google angle also plus have posts on several forums and watches on more.
Please can you keep this thread updated with your progress and I'll do the same.
randalla0622
I've made contact with Google via email and this is now being investigated.
I'm sending them a summary of the problems I've been having and pointing them at various threads both here and in the Market so that they can see how widespread this problem is.
I've also tried a full hard reset and cache wipe without luck. My belief is that this is something that Google need to sort server-side, so I'm done with my wiping and reinstalling for now...

Looks like this has now been fixed server-side.
I got my 'Top Paid' tab back this morning - Yay!
I've been using DROIDs since DROID 1, then X, and now Bionic.
I have the issue on my Bionic: I'll get a notification that an App has an update. When I select the app from my notification pane, it opens Android Market and takes me to the My Apps view. However, no apps display as needing updates. (Yes, I'm sure it's a notification to update an app and not the notification that an app has been updated (auto updates)).
I can go through all my downloaded apps and none of them show as "updateable." Sometimes it displays, that there are more than one (like 3) apps that have an update, but again, when I go to My Apps, I can't find any app that has an update - there is no update button only Open and Uninstall.
Has anyone else seen or heard of this issue?
Have you changed the LCD density at all? That gives me various problems. I always have to grab an older version of the market place to update.

I know what you're talking about. I've found when that happens, it's usually tied to a system app or a preinstalled app, such as Gmail, YouTube, or Zumocast.
Annoying.

I concur, I had the issue as well and updating the pre-installed crapware seemed to remedy the issue.
This has been happening to me as well, and it's not always system apps. Yesterday I had the notification in the morning, with no app showing up to be updated. However, I checked the market later last night, and Swiftkey X was showing up. (I had read that Swiftkey had an update earlier in the day, as I recalled when I saw that.)
It could be that the apps are sending notifications before they hit the market, or it could be that the market app has issues. I think it's the latter. I generally used to check the market for updates when I plug in the phone when going to bed at night, and I may start doing that again.
I hate the new market - since the last few updates (when it got its current new look, with books and movies) the market has been pretty crappy.
Same thing here. I get the notification, but there are no apps showing as having update available. If I go through the apps one by one I can usually find some with updates. I also have apps mysteriously disappear from time to time. I went to open Gentle Alarm last night and it wasnt there anymore, I re-downloaded it and it installed and all my settings were still there. Strange.
For some reason, it keeps changing from your default account to a secondary account. I have two Google accounts on my phone; one for personal and one for work. If you go into Market and then hit menu, accounts-you will notice it changed your default account. I haven't figured out why it does this-my OG never did.
Could it, in part, be due to applications that were set to auto-update?

This happened to me this morning, but changing the account showed me the applications that needed updating. If anyone knows why the account changes, I'd like to know!
O.K. Wearing my tinfoil hat. Looked and couldn't find the processes that might operate this rootkit on my Bionic, but I really can't be certain what I am looking for.
The HTC versions were IQAgent and IQRD. Nothing similar that I have found, but I'll bet they are there somewhere.
Anyone found anything?

I've heard that it could be disguised as Contacts Sync and ContactsData. They have the same icon (although that doesn't mean much).
I haven't been able to determine if its the same thing or not.
Anyone able to confirm that the Bionic is CarrierIQ free?
I tried the Logging test tool, but if they renamed the app it won't work.
Either way, this thing is going to cause such a lawsuit with huge repercussion. (which they deserve)

Likewise, I ran the "CIQ Checks" test in the "Logging Test App" by xda member TrevE mentioned in this article as a reliable way of testing for the presence of CIQ: http://lifehacker.com/5863895/carri...everything-on-your-phone-and-how-to-remove-it The test completed running and nothing showed up in the "CIQ File List" so I'm assuming the Bionic is clean.
I don't think the Contacts Sync and ContactsData icons are a reliable way to test for CIQ. Found this on another site: "The icon is a default icon, not specific to Carrier IQ. It can't help you determine whether or not CIQ is present."
After all the latest news about the rootkit that is allowing apps to bypass requests and can track what you're doing on the phone, I have found that particular app on our Bionics.
First, read this article:
http://www.helloandroid.com/content/are-carriers-illegally-tapping-your-android-phone
Next, go to settings, applications, manage applications, all applications tab, and look for the Fake Blur app. I am rooted and rommed and noticed that I still have this app. Is it something that we should be worried about? Has anyone tried uninstalling it and seeing if the phone still works without it?
Well, for whatever it's worth:
http://www.theverge.com/2011/12/1/2602532/verizon-carrier-iq-denial
So that would seem to strongly support the idea that the Bionic lacks CIQ.

It's present in Shifter rom also. I was going to uninstall it using TB, but it seems like it might stop something from working, because when I attempted to force stop the application and went back to my homescreens, it was like I had just turned the phone on and they were sluggish.

I froze it with titanium a few hours ago and hadn't had any issues or FC's yet. I'm running Purity.
Good day, this notif has just appeared to me recently and I do not know why. Whenever I download, whenever I update.
It prompts me, App incompatible with current system version. I do not know what triggered it but its annoying.
No it doesn't prohibit me fron using my app, yes I can still use my apps even if I update em. New downloaded apps works too. But that prompt is just annoying.
Could anyone help me regarding this as I have searched google and found answers / solutions that were not working for me.
Thanks
did u fix it bro>?
I'm having the same issue. It just started recently after resetting all app preferences in main settings. Nothing different other then the annoyance. Is there maybe a way to block the one particular notification?
Same issue here. Any fix?
same for me with my rooted phone. Is there a solution?
