I have tried renaming the marketupdate.apk in system/app but it still updates itself. I have tried freezing said apk with titanium backup and yet it still updates itself. I have a version of the market that I like but installing it everyday is getting old. How can I successfully keep it from updating on its own?? I'm on CM7.1 btw. Thanks.
Did you freeze the market or market updater?

I froze the Market Updater using Titanium Backup.
A quick search found me this

Hope this helps...
Froze that marketupdater and the damn thing still updates. I then deleted marketupdater and it still updated to the new crap market! What the hell?

I hate it. I can search for an app and then try to install it and it just sits there forever. But as soon as I install the older version and search for the same app and install it, the app downloads and installs right away. Sigh.

Did you try clearing data and cache from the market app?

Yep, multiple times. I have installed the old version a few times now. I must have jacked with the wrong file or something cuz now the new version FCs when I try to download somthing and the old version closes as soon as I click the Market icon. LOL. I need to reinstall my ROM anyway. Fresh start.
It definitely decreased the visibility for my app. In that way I don't like it, but as a user, I got used to it.

I want to keep myn's black market. Every time I uninstall the new market and reload it the new crap is back;how do I fix that? I know I just made a similar topic but the problem is slightly different and the solution didn't work. So any suggestions?

I did a nand restore to previous market, then before opening market I froze Market updater in TB. Then installed Black Market and presto no update.
Do I have to do a nand restore fir it to work like that?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Well you have to somehow freeze market updater before the market updates. Once the market updated for me I wasnt able to flash back to black market. So I had to do a nand, if you can flash the black market successfully id just freeze market updater then flash away.
I am able to go back to the black market by uninstalling the update. So does that mean I just freeze it after I uninstall but before I reopen it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Yep uninstall update, then freeze market updater. See how that works for you.

Like title says, facebook as an update from market would not install. I removed existing fb and install clean, no dice. A copy of the olderversion also would not install. SOmething about not signed came up. Any ideas?
Love the Overclocked "nonsense" CM7
I wiped dalvik fixed permissions now all is good.... except. Now it just force closes as soon as i try to open it

The latest facebook version doesn't work for me either. I have learned to back-up my facebook app before updating it.
I tried the backup and wouldn't install. I'm running the newest one finally. After a bunch of cache wipes and fix permissions I got it working. Even the backup did not want to cooperate.

New FB app FC's all the time... its a POS.

Yep the latest FB update has issues. It installed fine for me on my G2 with CM7 nightly 41, but it force closes when tapping Profile, Friends, or Messages from the main screen. I didn't back up the previous version so I'm stuck with it until they release an update. Unless someone is so kind as to post an apk of the previous version.
It runs fine on my GF's Fascinate (running 2.1) though.
I've always found that the quality of the Android FB app mirrors the relationship between FB and Google.

I found a fix. Its as simple as uninstalling the facebook update and your good. No more force closes.

Yea same here, wouldn't install for me.
I gave up on the official Facebook app and went with Flow for Facebook. Way better than the official app.

It's not a ROM issue, it's an app issue. Every major update FB does breaks all sorts of **** (so much for internal testing); I always read user comments first before updating their app and wait until they clear up the issues.

If you've got 1.5.2 backed up by Titanium Backup then go back to that and it works fine until Facebook fix it.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Having the same issues running CM 6.1. Every time I have updated, I always end up removing updates and going back to Version 1.4.1. It has been the least buggy version for me...
Lol, damn, i wish I would have read the reviews!
Exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks
Does facebook release a beta before sending out updates?

the Market actually has an option to remove the most recent update, so you can just run that

Can anyone please upload the 1.5.2 version? My TB already backed up the 1.5.3 and I only see "uninstall" on the market, no 'uninstall updates' option.
Swtiched to Seesmic
I also couldn't go back, and got tired (very quickly) so I am now trying Seesmic for facebook config only. It seems to work okay if you get tried of waiting.

Google "facebook 1.5.2 .apk" and find yourself a download link for the old version... Helped for me.

The latest update fixed the FC bugs.

I'm getting a "package file was not signed correctly" when I try to update to 1.5.4 from 1.5.2. Any ideas?
*edit* : fixed it, had to uninstall, reboot and reinstall. Weird.
update fixed the fc's for me, too.
I am unable to download from the market. If i search for an app and find it in the results list and tap on it the screen flashes black then to white and says loading and then right back to the results list. Ive tried clearing the cache and data in manage applications with no luck. It was working fine a few days ago and the only thing ive changed was to turn journaling on. Any ideas?

Try clearing Market cache and data under settings/applications, and then clearing all apps' cache with an app2sd type program. This may have helped me when I was having another type of market issue.
Thanks for the reply but i've already tried that. I believe the market got messed up on a freeze and battery pull. I was able to replace it with a themed version and all is good. Just need to source the oem apk

Was this a market that you got because it came with a ROM or did you push a new version. I would suggest flashing a new market to the device and trying to see if that can solve the issue
The one i replaced was the original. The market I used to replace it was not from a rom, its one in the themes and apps forum

I know many people hate this app, but I am running the new Market and it says there is an update to Facebook but when I click on it I only have the options to open or uninstall the app. Anyone else having this issue?
I think you should try going back to the old market, wait for Google to put out the update automatically over the air.

Thanks for the Advice, but this was the only app that I have seen it do that on. All other aps have updated just fine. Also I bypassed it going to the Market via my web broswer and installing it that way.
That's a good idea... I prefer watiting for updates... That's just me though.

Its saying the same thing for me. But in the what's new area of the app it says version 1.6.0. Twitter is saying same thing about an Update
