[Q] New Android Market - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I downloaded the New Android Market app and then downloaded a movie after trying to play the movies it says movie will not play on rooted device. Anyone else having this issue?

Google movies won't play on rooted devices. It knows that your device is rooted, and has to do with copyright protection. That's the way it is right now.

big brother knows... your right about the copyright protection. they dont want anyone using a rooted device because then google just became the "new pirate bay". you could buy the movie. copy it with TB or any back up. ask for a refund and have the movie for free.

Ones that won't be discussed here on XDA. Educate yourself, do a search.

Another issue that I'm getting with new market is apps say they have update, but when you try to update no option to. I restored back to old market until the dev put in rom.

Hmmm I rolled back and hours later the new one auto updated.
MIUI.US 2.15.00.05.02 Radio&Incredikernel.

You don't want to try to rent movies on a rooted phone. Since root allows us to modify framework and potentially remove DRM, you can't actually view the movie you just paid for because content providers asked Google to restrict rooted users from accessing movies, even though you can still pay for it.
@mikeew83,
Not sure if you do this already, but check the android development and hacking forums. There is a section for apps and games, it's a great place to find apps.

Yea you know was looking thru there after I had posted and gotten responce and then saw a thread with it but will do in the future ty

That's where I got the updated market, downloaded netflix long before the official app came out for our phones, and a few other apps that I'd never have found if I didn't look in that forum. Definitely worth taking a couple minutes each day to browse if you ask me.

I don't know why people have to do things like that. It just encourages piracy. I really want to be an honest person, but they make it so hard sometimes.

[Q] Shootme gone? Just shoot me

Just rooted my HTC EVO 4G last night and one of the apps I was going to load today was shootme, the screen capture app. Searched for it in the market and generally on google and it seems to be gone. Anyone else have this same result, or is it just a temporary glitch w/the market?
How odd. Yup its totally off the market. Was it a paid app? If not I can up it for you.
Posted a long time ago in the future.
Not a paid app (I don't think so, anyway.) But no need to upload it. I'm going to wait and see if it shows up again. Thanks for the offer, though.

Sure thing.
Posted a long time ago in the future.
If it isn't there we would be happy to assist you.
Edit: It most certainly isn't there. I long-held on shootme and hit market and it said no results.

yup knew that one ..
but Miui and MikG have screenshot built in
im sure other roms do too.

Y'all are so generous here. I will wait a couple days to see if it shows up in the market. Until then, I will remember your offers and may return to ask for the app.
Anytime man, for the most part, XDA helped me with no flaming. Myn's warm TwoPointTwo is a good rom to start with, GREAT battery life.

[Q] GetJar-Market Promblems!?!?!?

Im currently on the awesome miui rom as of now. This has never happened before but i downloaded the tweetcaster pro app from getjar but when i tried to update it the market told me that i couldnt..because i didnt buy the app...is there a way around this..is this rom related..or is it my phone? It doesnt even show up in my installed section under my apps..im guessing that has something to do with it lol...thanks in advance
Isn't getjar a black market for apps... meaning you can get paid apps for free... I'm thinking it is... and you will get no help here because that is piracy! As for the not updating... if you didn't buy it from the android market it won't update because it checks that it was bought from the android market...

Actually its a legit alternative market. Please don't flame the guy unless you know what he means
As far as updating apps through the google market place... well you can't its like the amazon app store in that sense, unless the developer updates the app on getjar there won't be an update

Miui.us is awesome isn't it? Though I am a little biased. What the other people said is accurate. You can only update thru where u bought it from.

Hey phat did you ever figure out how to root your phone?
Yep that's samsuck for ya go figure...
They had the nerve to say that ics wouldnt function properly on the "epic" when the nexus s is the same phone "almost" but they have official ics. Don't look to corporations for some software be confident your devs will provide you with such.

Updated Version of Google Now for LGOG, please?

I know all the devs are waiting for a Jelly Bean release for the Sprint LGOG, but I really think a huge feature we (non devs) all want is an updated Google Now. One that includes the sport teams feature. Sorry I do not really know what version it is. Please if there is anyone out there who could spend some time with this one, I think they would be cherished.

The version in the General section does not allow you to specify your sports teams. That means it is the same old buggy version that everyone's been running on ICS for a while.
