Amazon MP3 updated...finally - G2 and Desire Z Themes and Apps

Amazon MP3 has an update, and it doesn't automatically start anymore. I know most of you still consider it "bloatware", but at least they made an effort.
I updated and rebooted. Sure enough, no Amazon MP3 running in the background. Nice.
New in v1.8.29:
* “Auto-resume downloads” (was “Monitor connection”) setting is disabled by default
* App no longer starts in the background unless “Auto-resume downloads” is enabled or device language changes

Not bad at all, thanks for the update

how do i update this app on my G2?

+1 Huge thanks for letting us know about this.

But it is on my G2 by default, part of the T-mobile bloatware.

You can update apps that came on the phone

how? they don't appear in the andorid market->downloads

Just downoad it from the market. If you see that you now have two amazon mp3 app uninstall the newly downloaded app. Fyi the youtube when it was first released wasn't seen as an update in the market but after installing it did appear as an update.

It's such an awesome update, but it causes this weird lag problem on my phone that pretty much freezes it. Having to do a battery pull after every 1 or 2 videos isn't fun

I *knew* I wasn't alone on this!! Same thing happens to me! It's so goddamn annoying I went as far as uninstalling the update. It's worthless if it freezes badly like it does!

I read through nearly all of the comments and of those mentioning they had a G2 all but 2 or 3 said they were having this problem. I'm gonna wait for them to fix it for the G2.

Same here.
The new youtube app isn't the only one that was updated. Most of the gapps also have new versions on the market. For example, the shopper app or the street view app had new versions on the market that I wasn't aware of until I searched pub:"Google Inc." You guys should probably download those as well.

Yeah probably, but the apps weren't linked to the market so I had no idea that some of the other apps were updated too. For example, maps always updates itself so I assumed the rest of the gapps would do the same.
Try avoiding the use of the "back" button while you're in the YouTube app. It hasn't crashed for me since I stopped. I'm sure an update will come pretty soon. This is an entirely new version of the app, it may take awhile to get all the bugs worked out. Looks promising, though. I like the UI.

New market update

http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/12/google-updating-android-market-app-on-phones-adding-movies-and/
New market update confirmed and coming soon according to Google. I think it looks pretty awesome. People are already yelling about the WP7 comparisons, but I think its pretty slick.
I think it looks quite smart. Bring it on
yup its very pretty, so us rooted users wont be able to rent movies?
Here's the new update.. ....courtesy of loxdev.
Installed it on CM7without problems...

Mine was choppy and didn't display images till i rebooted. then it worked just fine.
also if you're rooted you can try to wipe market data in titanium backup and reboot. or wipe cache and reboot and try that.
Works pretty dam good on non-rooted stock.
Video is nice and smooth. Couldn't really tell I was streaming on mobile data. (Which was probably 4g)

dang! Im running the pyro rom but cant get this to install. it just says "Application not installed" anyone has any ideas how to fix this?
Anyone having issues updating apps? I've had 2 apps now show up in the 'update' heading, but when u click thru to the app the top dialogue boxes are 'open' and 'uninstall', as if that page doesn't recognize that there's an update.
Once 2 apps were available for updating, the "update 2" button comes up and it allows me to hit it. 1 of the 2 updated. the other still won't. Tried wiping Market data and rebooting, no luck. bleh.
UPDATE: Well after doing several reboots and etc. etc., I just simply went back to the file (From this thread) and re-installed the market again. Now the 'update' button shows up! Not sure what I did but it works now.

Thanks for sharing this! You may want to update OP w/ these steps in place of the video, saves you time to just install the apk rather than watching a 6min video, renaming the apk, copying it over to /system/app, then powering down the phone, and then powering back up the phone when you can just install it and run it !

I've tried several market versions and they won't show my apps. IIpurchased I select my apps all I get is my gmail account and that search apps or games. When I flashed the new calkulins Rom it worked for two days now back to the same problem. Anyone have any solutions. Thanks in advance
If Im correct I believe calkulins new rom comes with this version in it, I never run the apk on my touch but I checked it last night and it was already up to date.

Hulu App: G2 CM7

How do I get this app to work on my G2? I'm rooted and running CM7 2.3.7. I have an identical G2 with the same program on it running the same mod and hulu works on it. I would be using that phone but the volume button is broken so I had to root this one I have now to replace it. I don't understand why it runs on a rooted G2 before but doesn't on this new one I have. The only difference I see when I go to "About Phone" is the Baseband Version.
The baseband version on the one that works is 12.28h.60.140fU_26.06.02.27_M
The baseband version on the one that doesn't work is 12.22.60.09bU_26.02.01.15_M2
Is this a factor?
Is there a patch? A zip file of some sort or a work around Cyan has found to fix this?
What do you mean "work"? Are you not able to install it or run the app or watch shows? If you can't watch shows, it's probably because you need to have subscribed to Hulu Plus and then logged into the app.

WOW ... sorry ... I don't know what I said but I didn't mean to offend you.
I've been looking around and there doesn't really seem to be a clear answer for those peoples issues with Hulu Plus.
One of the simplest fixes appears to be turning off any Ad-Block apps you have running. Make sure after you turned that app off that you reboot your phone at least once to make sure that the app is turned off.
A lot of the other fixes for Hulu appear to only be to play it through the browser.

Q. No calculator ?

Just got my G3 yday and noticed its not an calculator app. I researched and noticed some ppl have it and some dont. Did the software update remove the calculator or it was never on the phone?
Try Settings->About Phone->Update Center->App Updates->Idle Apps
You can install and uninstall LG apps from here. Maybe yours didn't come pre-installed with calculator but the app should be available to all G3 users.
You can find much better ones on the app store anyway. Been using a really good scientific Casio clone one for nearly a year now.
