Old Market on SGS2E4GT - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Anyone surprised we still have 2.3.6 on this beast when several newer versions have been released? Not ready to root, so haven't replaced the apk yet....

Mines updated after I opened the market up and signed in with my gmail account.

Heh, I factory reset my phone the other day and was surprised to see a different looking market app... must have been 2.3.6.
Then I hit the back key and it was updated to 3.1.5 again, which was the only version I'd seen on the phone before.

I have had it for several days though. I have wiped data for the market application too.

Yea, I think we all start with the old market and then it automatically updates!

Mine updated in the first couple mins.
The Evo3D Killer!!!

after wiping data the second time and resetting the phone, market did end up updating. But until after a few days!

Weird...I have had the phone for a day and I am still on the old market. I guess I should just wait it out and it will upgrade eventually? Is there a way to force a market update?
Thanks!

Go to Settings -> Applications, find the market app in the list, and clear data/cache
Open the app back up and it should update shortly

I use the old market
you have to re-install the apk (hint you can get it from the cyanogenmod gapps link)
and then you have to FREEZE "market updater" using titanium or some other software that will freeze apps
this way market wont update as soon as you sign into the market
I prefer the old version, since it sees my app list better, and shows me what updates I need....the new one wont show updates on mine for some reason for ALL my apps, only a few

[Q] XDA app

Has anyone been experiencing any FC's on the XDA app when attempting to access the settings section?
I haven't. I'm using the new paid version tho so I'm not sure.
You can always try clearing data or a fresh install.

I think it was 99 cents... not a huge difference, but it's ad-free, different layout options and it supports the site...so well worth it IMO.

I'm sorry man.. that sucks. Wish I could help.
Actually, the free XDA-Developers app is no longer on the market. I went and saw there was an update for it and I went to update it and it said the item couldn't be found. :|
Mine when open the app after still on the background sometime so didn't connect to the servers, press back button and FC, every time that happens.
I had some FC'S on mine as well and for some reason I had to do a cache/dalvik cache clean via recovery and that worked for me...not sure if that would do it for everyone or if you would even need to go that far but it fixed mine...

yea same thing here makes it impossible to search for things when on the go
They removed the free one from the market and for some reason that's when I started to get FC and when I removed it and tried to reinstall it that's when I realized that it was not in the market anymore I got the paid version cause it was only $.99 but it was kinda odd that it started to happen when they removed the free version.
Yeah, ran into this today. Been using the blue flashable xda for a long time. Today, it somehow auto updated. I hate the brown, but do wanna support xda. I saw comments in market saying the new version diesnt seem to remember 'last read'. And that that color picks in settings doesn't work.
Any chance of a blue themed version coming. ?

Ok. So I went to manage apps, uninstall updates. Uninstalled update on xda. Got my blue xda back, but icon was still diarrhea brown (fugly), was frustrated. But, just rebooted and all is back to blue. Sure hope someone will work on this.
Thanks in advance to jchisurf, riptide, stoney, aamikam, etc

pretty lame that the XDA free app is no longer available........I wenth ahead and forked over the .99 cents to purchase it...........but it would never install, so just before the 15 minutes elapsed, I did the "refund"...........pretty lame indeed............come on XDA, bring the free app back.
I saw there was an update and tried to update and the item wasn't found, but then I did a long hold on the app in "my apps" and there was an update option. That worked to update mine. No FCs so far!
I did have to re-select my subscribed threads. But the app now tells you if people are online!

AdFree too old

Hello,
I have AdFree installed on my EVO 4G. When I run it get error message:
"Out of Date
This copy of AdFree is too old,
please update to a newer version."
I tried this:
1- wiped data with titanium, uninstalled, rebooted, installed from Market again, ... not working, same error
2- uninstalled, went recovery (ra 2.3), wiped cache & dalvik, installed from market, same error.
I found this issue in other forums but not for EVO 4G.
Update:
I sent an email to AdFree developers 5 min ago (06-27-11, 11:28am).
Update:
AddFree developers released an update solving problem today.
This is in the wrong section, but ad free still works for me.

This worked for me for right now. Install it from the market but don't open it. Go to your phone settings and set your date back one year to 2010. Go and open adfree and let it do its thing. After its done go back and set your current date and it will start blocking ads. Hit my thanks if this helps.

Yes, this worked to get latest host list, but if you open AdFree having date settings to automatic then you get the too old error, so it is something to fix by AdFree developers.
heare the same problem with this app.

It is obviously a problem with the app. I was just giving a temporary fix which was what I thought you wanted because you posted here. Maybe you should just contact the developer.

I notice that there is something called as DigiClock installed after market was updated. I didn't install this and I can't find this program anywhere and can't find a place to uninstall either. Uninstalled market updates, but it is now showing up even in the old market as well.
Got this update too but I feel it's just fine, however I don't use it so often.
hi, i just kind of replace the market.apk from blapkmarket... and instead got market that does not run... would someone be nice enough to pm me market.apk link?
thanks!

Updated Market

Has the New Market just been updated or have i been living under a rock?
The GUI seems improved, and i no longer seem to get any lag etc
Guessing this is to coincide with ICS perhaps somehow?!
Flake x
I just had an update for the market to 3.1.5. It's a nicer interface and seemed a bit snappier, but that may be my imagination. ICS is 3.2.0 I believe.
This Version I have is 3.3.11
Yep.. Same here.. 3.3.11

It has looked like this for awhile now. Only minor improvements were made with 3.3.11.

Interesting. Do you have a source?
What! It detects pirated apps.? Then what? What does it do then after detecting?
On Nov. 08 2011, the android market got updated .............and hence the world came to an end.
Its true about the pirated apps, the my apps screen will become blank and you cannot update your apps anymore. The online market still works though and even gives you the option to reinstall pitated apps - which does not work.

simple answer to that is don't pirate apps!!!!!
It appears that the problem on the galaxy s where some of the app images would not show when previewing is now fixed.
Could be following the update.

How Google will make a difference for paid market apps and paid non-market apps then? If i download some legit apps from for example GetJar/amazon app store/etc, Google doesn't have record for me buying this app..but still it appears in my apps list (IIRC this happens, but not 100% sure..). So if Google isn't analyzing apk file itself, its hard to believe it could work correctly..
And I also haven't seen any comments like these in other Market threads..
Removing my three unpaid apps, blackmart and clearing the data part of market solved the issue. I removed the data before, that did not help, now it did. It's strange...

Well I have also had blank white screens..just today when I tried to updater one app..came after accepting download. But it worked just fine after trying again.. And IIRC I also have had one in 'my apps' also. I'm not saying it can't be true but I need more proofs..little sceptic...

Pretty much sums up my thoughts. There's clearly nothing to support these claims.

Annoying Market issue...

More often than not, I have this issue, but it's only when one software update is available. If I have multiple updates, I can hit the "Update x items" button and all of them go. When only one update is available, when I go into it, all I have is Open and Uninstall, rather than Update and Uninstall. I tried clearing Market data and no luck. I'm using version 3.4.4.
I have seen it to, the update usually shows up eventually though.

The app disappered back into the main list of apps installed, so basically it said it had an update available, and then went away. Nothing ever updated. Google's biggest issue with Android is the dang Market. Tons of bugs.

Yeah Google apps do that to me a lot. They show up under My Apps, but don't show that they need an update until I go into that application. Apple may be a bad company, but at least they have their application delivery system working correctly.
