Where'd Handcent go?

I was reinstalling some apps on my rom today and I noticed handcent has went MIA from the market, any idea why?
I pulled the AOSP standard mms app over so I'm not in need of it just wondering were it went.

Its still in the market for me.

strange I don't see it anymore besides certain extras and I'm on the 3.3 market. luckily I never uninstalled it

Yeah, camera 360 ultimate is gone too...aka the app I paid three bucks for last year. Awesome.

From what I have seen, your device isn't registering properly with the Market. Do you have your cell radio turned off?

Yep, not showing up for me either with newest Market. I don't use it, but it shows 3 language packs for it, clearing app data/cache doesn't do anything to fix. Cell radio is on.

Running Bugless Beast V. Gpa19 AOSP w/ stock kernel.

I'm using the 3.2 market but I'm pretty sure I had similar issues with 3.1.x
On top of that everytime I go to update Superuser on my Stock+ ROM I get a never ending loading screen.

Wasnt showing up for me either so I went to their site and downloaded the lastest apk and installed that way. That was a week ago and everything works fine so far. Its my default for mms and sms.

Any modified APKs around that allows one to install it on GB? I'm staying away from ICS until the source comes out. Too many problems woh my attempts. I miss Chrome a lot though as I have tons of bookmarks from my desktop on it.

So, does Chrome not support Flash? I went to watch a video on my phone, and it just said "looking for plugin". Videos work fine in stock browser...

Chrome works perfectly fine for me on CM9 A5.
However, I does not have flash, so just a heads up.

Because adobe isn't updating flash for mobile platforms after ICS.

That's right, I forgot about that. Thanks.

Chrome has become my daily browser since I started using Dolphin with my Nexus One.
With the last update for Chrome and FF09, it's the smoothest browser I've used on Android. However, there are still instances where scrolling is jerky and sometimes scrolling stops working for half a minute. It seems like it only happens when I try to scroll while a page hasn't finished loading, but all of the browsers I've tried seem to have issues with scrolling an incomplete page. Closing and reopening the tab will fix the jerky scrolling.
Chrome also freezes on me forcing me to force stop it through settings -> applications. I cannot reliably reproduce this problem and it is annoying, but the benefits of having access to the open tabs on my computer on my phone outweigh this problem.
I do wish Google would iterate the Chrome beta app as fast as they iterate the desktop version of Chrome beta because I'm assuming they mean for this browser to become to default one on Android and jerky scrolling and freezes is pretty bad.

I absolutely do not know which Chrome people are using that they find "buttery smooth" and "fast". It is a terrible laggy and crappy browser on my end. The last update killed it for me where it only launches to a white screen and just freezes. If and when it does decide to work properly, it's stutters and jib-jabs when scrolling, no flash, just all around terrible. No wonder it's surname is still BETA.
Dolphin browser (mini or HD) puts it to shame, really.

You can also try firefox... It's very smooth, and untill now, I didnt find any problem

I like it but I never use it. No flash is... well, no flash. No plugin support like the rest of em either. you'd think with google being the og devs for android. Could make it all work out.

This is happening to me as well. I noticed that it started to happen with version 3.7.11 of the Play Store and it still happens with 3.7.13. It will also work if you downgrade to an older version of the Play Store, but it will eventually update itself back to 3.7. There is another thread on the Q&A section about it as well, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750823.

It was on the ff18 stock rooted build of ics... Every time i downoaxed any app oc significant size a window poppec up wuth a checkbox already checked saying wait for wifi connection to download
you probably didnt see it, because the window will go away , and the app stays in a waiting for network mode.
kill the download restart and see if it pops.up. I tbink maybe sprint ia getting killed by unlimited data. Lol

Just woke up this morning and have the same problem, last night everything worked and now not anymore :/

Same issue still occurring today...

Few days passed, still no fix ?
My temporary fix is uninstall updates and download 1-3 apps fast then it gets updated again :/

Same here. Also since the update, app preview pics that are in landscape format (Angry Birds for example) only display in portrait format... can anyone else please confirm or deny this?

Youtube (desktop + mobile) Force closes on video playback

I've tried searching the forums for a possible solution but have had no luck thus far.
I prefer the desktop Youtube over the mobile app version but regardless on which one I use for some reason lately YT always force closes anytime I hit the play icon to watch a video. it would load for a couple seconds and then force close me out of my browser. I do have the correct flash player and I've tried various browsers installed on my phone as well as earlier versions to each but the issue continues to occur. I also tried clearing data but no luck either. Has anyone else experienced this? and if so, a possible fix? Any advice would be great.

If you're on Deviant then it's a known issue. Something with webkit Ramsay did, thought we got it under control, but I guess not.

Hmm.. ok. I wouldn't have thought it was the ROM because I've been using Deviant since it's beta release as my daily driver and it's been stable for me until today. Wasn't having this issue til now and I hadn't modified anything. Thanks for clearing this up for me though. appreciate it.

Anyone have problems with new Maps?

The new google maps has been FC'ing like crazy on me when I try to use Navigation. It will eventually work after multiple FC's, but it rarely works right off the bat. Anyone else having this problem or is it just me? I'm rooted on tounchwiz.

No problems here just used navigation last night. And have the same set up rooted w/TW.. Not one force close! Might wanna try clearing data in the app, might help your problem!:what:

I've had problems. It doesn't seem to like the back button, or running in the background as its frozen a couple of times I've tried switching over and back from another program. I haven't tried again since the update earlier this week so some of the problems may have been fixed there. I figure with any major update like this, most likely needs time to work the kinks out.
If you can't even get it open, I suggest removing maps and reinstalling from the market, or if you're on a custom ROM, you can try clearing cache and Dalvik a couple of times and "dirty" flashing your current version again. That's fixed a lot of problem in the past. If that doesn't work, clean flashing is a good idea, not to mention half the fun of hanging out here on XDA.

I have the same problem as op. I disabled some of map's processes in autostarts to prevent battery drain a long time ago though, so I guess that may be my problem. (It all worked great with the last version of maps which I preferred.) I'm also still on Cleanrom 4.0.5 so I plan to do a fresh install of 4.9 just in case since I also have issues with my stock browser crashing lately.
