New market is now public

It seems liks Google started using the new market. What do you guys think about it? I kinda like it

I downloaded the apk and tbh its well better than the old one graphically. The widget section is welcomed and the overall look is just great

I uninstalled the updates (installed 2.2.6 APK), shut down, powered on my phone, checked the market and it updated itself automagically to 2.2.7.
It looks a bit nicer than the old one, although part of me misses the tabs - it works more fluidly than before - haven't had any downloads crash out on me either yet which is a good sign.

how do you get the new market? i dont see any updates on my desire running on cm 6.1.0

One day you'll wake up and it's there. No visible updates, just Google magic.

I just got it today. When I open the market apps it there already. The UI looks good.

Downloads and installations are also a bit quicker which is nice.

or find an APK for it... i.e. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877330

More to the point, how do I get rid of it.
Using appbrain I can uninstall the market and briefly use the old one, until it updates itself again later.
And I can't believe google just added some eye candy, but the search function is still rubbish and there aren't any filters - tsk tsk.

I guess you could try uninstalling (from manage applications) and then try and find an old APK for the old market - that might stop updating itself

I wouldn't mind, except there's a big bug (on my Desire - Orange uk). Whenever my phone runs out of battery and I charge it and go to the market, then click on 'my apps' it only shows about a third of them. So I have no idea if I have any updates on the missing ones. The only way I've resolved this is to go into settings/applications and 'uninstall updates' on the marketplace. Briefly the old market comes back before being replaced by the new one, and all my apps are then visible in the market until the next time the power runs out. Very lame.

try clearing the data (and cache - why not) on the market - go back into it accept the terms and conditions, then let the apps refresh itself.
works for me

Doesn't work for me.
Also, I don't think I've had any updates for any apps since the new market came out. I'm hoping this is a coincidence and that Google tested at least that bit.

I have had updates with apps - not many but some since updating to the new market.
not sure why you aren't getting the update - maybe its phasing across handsets in some sort of random order...?

right now im using cyanogen mod 6.1 which doenst have the new market. is it possible for it to automatically update to the newer market even though im running a custom rom? or would i need to download the apk for it and manually update it myself?

Updating the market app?

I'm using the latest Oxygen ROM and have been using Oxygen for a good few months anyway. My market app has never updated however and I only noticed this lately when a friend showed me the updated market on his phone.
My phone is connected to Wi-Fi 20 hours a day, yet a market update fails to emerge. Is there any way to force the market app to check for an update for itself or what can I do?
Thanks in advance for any help.

hi,
yesterday or so i was curios and thought the same "lets try the new market"
after dl and install, i thought wow looks nice
but than i looked closer, its very slow and loading icons takes a while
for me the nice feature to look "more from this dev" has been purged
the only new and nice thing is the video preview integration
cheers
ps.: if you want try it yourself

Yep been waiting for the market app to auto-update as well on Redux. Only reason I'm not doing it manually is so I know if the ROM can take care of itself or not.
Only thing I've been told is as long as you have Market Updater (in Applications > Manage > All) it should eventually receive a new market update.

Same thing here.
Using latest Oxygen and still waiting for Market update. But how guys you update manualy?

Grab one of the market files from my sig. You should be able to just install it normally by using an explorer. v3 is really slow and not built for our phone but it looks nice. v2 is better off for our phones.

oxygen doesnt update Gapps. you need to manually do it. I suggest downloading the 200110503 Gapps as it has video built into the chat. then install with rom manager or cwm recovery.

Complete ICS App Collections for Android 2.2+

The Ice cream Sandwich has a really mind blowing UI, Google tried to modify almost all system apps.
Here is some original app collections, which really works for Gingerbread & other older versions.
The Apps Collections
Android Market 3.2.0
Google Music 4.0.1
Google Maps 5.11.0
Street View 1.7.0.4
Google+ 2.0.0
Just install like a normal app. Will be updated as soon as more apps available.
If anyone has problems installing market 3.2.0, try this post. This may be helpful to you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297040
Note : There may be updated versions of the apps listed, but this is just a collection from Galaxy Nexus.

Any hope for the launcher? Or the browser? Or Somthing else interesting....

are those install APK, or just copy and replace over old APK ?

Market and Music installed ok.
Not having any luck with Maps and Street View. Do they even have any significant changes?

Maps is not 5.10.2
It's the ownhere/Brut.all 5.10.1 mod of the maps...

(This works only whit root -ed phones? )

Thanks you very much !
But I have the same prob than zoltank but for Music, Market et Google+ =/
It's not the first time i install the three but here, everytime "app not installed" and my phone is rooted so it's not that =/
Any ideas ?

Too bad no =(
Uninstall the Market, i came back on the 1st version on the Nexus but it's the same, now the update roll on and i'm again with 3.1.5.
No prob, that will coming in time =)
Thank you !

i was able to install everything except Market 3.2
i uninstalled the old one and wiped cache, kelvin, etc...
any ideas?
solved
rebooted the phone
then i was able to install

now that it's installed, i get Force Close every time i try to install something from market
going back to 3.1.5

Hi, if you are having trouble installing the market try this. Its what I did to get it working on my o2x
You will need root explorer

Market doesn't work on Galaxy S Plus

Thanks for these
Market works perfectly on rooted Flyer. The tiles fill out the screen nicer than 3.1.5. No force close issues. On edit: it drops an error when trying to get a non-free app....
G+ breaks the People (htccontacts.apk) app.
Music installs, but I use the HTC one so not much testing after install.
Maps, untested.
Street view, untested.
---
On edit: Maps installs and works. Street view errors on install.
G+ app works perfectly on stock N1 on 2.3.6, no adverse side effects. Been using it since it originally leaked a couple-ish weeks ago.

Hint for at least us Moto Blur users if you install the G+ apk then your contacts will force close if you try to open up a contacts info

My guess is the ones already in the first post are the only ones that are gonna install on gingerbread. You can take all the apps from the galaxy nexus dump, put them in a folder on your sdcard, and browse to it with root explorer. you'll see the only ones that have none default icons are the ones in the first post. the ones with app icons are the only ones that actually install. all other give parsing errors since you need ICS to install them.

cheers mate that'll save me the trouble of downloading and installing it, Google should be ashamed of themselves the serious amount of money they have made/are making and they have an absolutely useless Android market, surely it cant take that much to design a decent market?

I agree with you. Just imagine how the market runs on a low-end phone, like the Ace or the Hero, if on the fastest android phone, the S2, it runs like crap.

thx
it's very smoth

use root explorer to replace the vending.apk in system/app with the file i have attached or watch the videos if you are stuck

I don't know why it works slow sometime!

Why did he (youtube video) say 3.3.1.1 when it clearly says that it's version 3.3.11..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium

I make CWM & recovery version.. so its more easy
Flash through recovery (recommended)
clear cache partition and delvik cache..
What's changed?
- New setting: Auto-update apps (presumably, sets all apps to auto-update mode, woohoo!)
- New setting: Update over Wi-Fi only
- New setting: Auto-add shortcuts (automatically adds homescreen shortcuts for new apps, a la Honeycomb)
- Smaller font
- New app drawer icon
- Microphone (voice command) button in search menu
- Star rating chart on app pages
- Minor UI tweaks
Market 3.3.11
http://www.multiupload.com/8J3DUB8LNX

if you replace it with root explorer don't forget to set correct permissions: rw-r--r--

If you are using the Vending.apk method via Root Explorer, make sure you set your Permission to the following:
R W
R
R
... now Reboot the phone!

[App] SwitchMe needs some i9000 testers

Hi everyone. Im one of the developers of SwitchMe, and app that allows multiple secure logins into separate installations of android on a single device. The pr is after the break.
I really need a few people to check into some issues people on the original galaxy s have been experiencing. There are some warnings involved:
- testers must perform a full nandroid backup before using the app, it is not our responsibility if you start getting boot loops
- if you report results or bugs, please use the "Write to us" function in the app whenever possible, and always describe the issue in the header of the logs you send
- if you post here, bes sure to include your device type and rom
- if you have apps installed on sd, be sure to mention that as well
--------------------------------------------------------------------
SwitchMe is a unique application for root users that allows you to log in and out of multiple installations of Android just as you would on a desktop computer.
The technology behind SwitchMe saves all of your applications and data, protects it and stores it as a file in memory. You can then log out of an
account and log into a fresh installation of Android or another account with its own unique content.
You may create as many profiles as the memory is capable of holding. Some of these may require very little free memory because they contain few apps,
others will be larger as they contain many applications and lots of cache and data.
Why is this functionality useful?
Privacy - the most obvious benefit is that you can securely share one device among multiple users, which gives you privacy and peace of mind.
Testing - if you are a developer, you can use profiles as clean sandboxes to test your applications and their interaction with the system.
Gaming – with multiple installations of Android on a single device, you can now play online MMOs as different characters.
Speed - the games your kids play slow down your tablet, but with SwitchMe you can easily create profiles without games or instant messengers.
Battery life - when the battery is low but there are important emails or documents to edit later, switch to a profile which only contains these essentials.
These of course are only suggestions - there are plenty of other uses for the functionality SwitchMe offers.
Market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.switchme
The Lite version allows the creation of two profiles, enough to test on.

Thank you, nice...

Same problem for me too. Cannot test if app doesn't start.

SGS GT-i9000, Rooted Stock Odexed XXJVU Value Pack, Semaphore Kernel, Stuck at boot animation after trying to switch to second profile.

Hi guys, there will be a new release today that will send logs even if the app does not start. Hopefully, we will have a working version for you tomorrow, so please update and send logs when prompted to do so!
Thanks!

1st try , cloning the default profile,
Now i can switch to the cloned profile n i do all below

Try wiping the cache after first booting into a new profile. We are considering adding this as a feature.
By the way, the app currently only supports the official android implementation of a2sd.

Any issues to report or is everything working flawlessly as usual?

SwitchMe 1.2 has been rolled out and now includes a lockscreen replacement:
1.2
Added lock screen for logging in and out
More stable Fast switch implementation
Reworked UI colors
Now, its very important that we get some feedback on how this big new feature works, so please read up on it in the help and post your thoughts!

1.2.2 - HOTFIX 2
Reworked widget on qHD+ displays
Fixed widget text on HC and ICS
Fast switch improved on older devices
