Need Help with Warm themed market.

Hello
Need some help with the android "themed" market in warm two point two.
On first run it was nicely themed. Nothing downloaded, but on second run it was back to the original green/white color.
I know I saw a fix for this, but after looking for an hour I cant for the life of me find it again.
Can someone help with this issue on how to keep it themed?
Theres also a second issue where the text is white on the white background so I cant read descriptions or reviews in the app.

You can go to applications>market>uninstall updates. Then if you have titanium back up you can freeze the market updater. Or if you have root explorer you can just rename the market updater to something like marketupdater.back

You have two options on keeping a themed market. (the reason it changes, is that it's auto-updating itself). Option 1, disable the 'marketupdater.apk', and revert the market back to Myn's. It won't update anymore, and you're market will be slightly out of date, but that affects nothing. Mine's out of date too. Option 2, is download and flash an up to date themed market from here on XDA. THey are in the themes and apps section. To do option 1, use root explorer (or any root level file explorer. You can use Titanium backup to freeze the app too) to navigate to /system/app. Find "marketupdater.apk" Change the .apk to .bak. That will disable the market updater, and your market will no longer auto update itself. This just means that the 'market itself' won't update. All your apps and everything will still alert you for updates as normal. Once you disabled the market updater, go to your homescreen. Hit menu>settings>applications>manage applications. Select the 'all' tab. Find your market in there, and click on it. At the top is a button that says uninstall updates. Click that. Then you're done, market should be back to Myn's themed market. No more auto updating. Good luck. And as I said, you can use titanium backup to 'freeze' the marketupdater if you want, rather than using root explorer. Eitehr way is fine.
EDIT: ignore link i posted.

Wouldn't you be missing some features though with the older version of the market? For example, isn't RLS5 from prior to the web market being enabled? And there could be security fixes or other improvements in the newer market releases as well.

A way to get the old market?

Hey guys I hope to get some help here. I hate the newer market, I loved how before you could go into each category and select just in which would give you the newest and updated apps. I want to go back to the old market searching in this market sucks. For example on my phone I search Lakers it says 647 results I click on it and it gives me about 10 apps. I click the little blue arrow and make sure apps its selected and nothing. I keep scrolling to maybe load more but nope. I do the exact same thing on my wifes 3D old market and she can view all the apps no problem. its oohed this on all searches for me. Any ideas or a way to get the old version back

Hmmmm i am getting vending process crash trying to update or install apps, anyone else? =\
That didn't work, bloody hell!!!! My phone was running so well, I guess I will have to reflash the rom ::weeps::
Be cautious un-installing apps using titanium.

Make sure you place the apk in the system/apps using something like root explorer.

no problems here, just installed it as a market update, no pushing req'ed.
its interesting to me that some are getting issues with app installs on this ver?
it Does seem to break a feature or two with TB (from what ppl are saying, out there, on the internets), the dev has been alerted, and I would expect an update soon. as far as Amazon... idk
worked flawlessly for me, but then again, I don't use Amazon, or TB to uninstall appz.

[Q] Cancel auto market (Google play) installations

Hey guys!
I'm getting ready to purchase the GN very soon now have a quick question for you..
I really like to start fresh, and was wondering if it's possible to cancel the installation of all of my apps which I previously installed.
It's funny there isn't a "remove app" option in Google play.. I think it would be very useful.. after all no one want's apps from 2 years ago installed again.. that's when I had my HD2....

well, when i first powered my gnex, only the aps that were actually installed on my old crappy LG Dual were downloaded and installed, not the tons of app i've tried (specially in my firs android times)
hope this will help dude

Oh... I get it.. it won't install apps which I've previously deleted, that's better.. I seem to remember this also when first registering my (stolen) sensation..
well, I guess I'll just have to delete them all after they'll re-install I like a fresh start (although the auto installation feature is something I value Google for having).
And tnx for the reply mate

you should also be able to manually stop the download, from inside the market app
glad it helped mate!

Thanks I also hit the button for you

[Q] Hey, where did that come from?

Every time I pull up my task manager to close out apps I find Google maps running even though I never opened it.
Is it triggered by another app, like Facebook possibly?
Er sorry, I thought I was in the Q&A forum. If one of the mods want to move this I'd appreciate it.

Download Autostarts from the Play store. You can prevent anything and everything from running on its own. One of the best root apps out there. It will also show you what the triggers are that cause it to start up.

You just discovered why I always delete Maps when I am setting up my phone and I just install it as needed. Autostarts or ROM Toolbox have the option to freeze it on start as well

Does deleting Maps affect navigational apps?

It may depending on the app. It would be easier to just freeze apps that you don't need or use. If you get an error because of a dependency, it's usually far easier to defrost the app than to reinstall it (especially if it is categorized as a system app).

I think I'd prefer that option although I realize re-installing Maps wouldn't exactly be a hassle. It isn't really eating up battery or getting in the way I just wondered why it was always there when I knew I hadn't manually opened it.
Thanks for chiming in, the more I learn the better I enjoy my phone.
