Mystery solved about marketplace update troubles - Windows Phone 7 General

At last, we have official statement about recent troubles raised from marketplace encryption:
Can’t download an app? Here’s why
BR.

Too late, I already uninstalled the Translator, which is mentioned in that post. Thanks for the information though.

I still recieve this error..

Uninstall then reinstall, update wouldn't work for me either

I got 5 apps that needs updating, should I uninstall all of them then reinstall?
EDIT: That didn't work..

Sorry ArtieQ, worked for me

I found a topic on microsoft.answers where mods where asking people for some information, I replied to the thread and like a day after I could update and download apps again. Excellent!

Marketplace

I don't get it.
If I use the Android XDA app, the Marketplace is visible in General. Using a real browser however, it's not. A quick search for a link into the Marketplace rears a permissions error. And all of this without being registered. So what gives? Something I'm missing here?

what phone your using?
Oh, so it's now visible. After glancing through the rules/disclaimer it appears it'll become accessible after 8 posts for a noobjuice member. Clever.

You need more posts and/or a longer membership (I can't recall the details).
Guess the Tapatalk app needs fixing .

It's not the app...we've changed the permission on the Marketplace to not allow access to a user until he/she has made 8 posts. That 8 post level is also the same point at which you can post links. It's just an anti-spam measure. We found people were registering at XDA just to spam the site or the Marketplace. This helps.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
This is good to know. Long time lurker and finally signed up so I could post in the marketplace but alas!
Can someone link to the rules for gaining access to the Marketplace? I have 8 posts but still cannot see it. Tried logging out and back in but still nothing
For a while there I thought I needed to check my eye sight. Makes sense now.
Hard to achieve 8 post if you have nothing to say or to discuss or if everything is so well explained that you do not need answers
Maybe you could add a waiting time also. Lets say after 4 weeks you get to see the market, I highly doubt anyone would wait 4 weeks just to spam something.
It doesn't make sense that you can view the Marketplace before you sign up (and then have it dissapear after you are a member).
oh!! so thats why i couldnt c the marketplace
I am new here. it seem that this is an useful forum.
welcome to forums
Once you become an active/regula user all XDA features will be unlocked and you will be able to post in marketplace, this rule is to protect us from spammers/scammers
Ah I was wondering why I wasn't able to see that deal I saw anymore... guess I'm off to ask more questions.
I have been on the site reading for 6 months now trying not to poste but now i need to use the market so here is my 8th poste thanks.

Lol. Non-members can't see the marketplace anymore.
Trust me to say too much
As I said before:
Once you become regular/active members will see the benefit of having this
Meantime post and you´ll finally get access
Nice
Really smart security measure! I like it.

Market Does Not Recognise Me After Flash

Hi all,
I have installed Darky's Raw Steel Edition v3.0 yesterday and it's great. I have only one problem but it's an important one. I can reach Android market and see and download free and paid apps, no problem there. However the problem is market did not recognise me and wants me to buy the same stuff that I have purchased legally before the flashing process. Therefore I can not install many programs via appbrain since I always come into the same buy option. Changing back the product code did not help either.
I have also tried to buy the same applications again, may be it would not charge me again but it did. Any idea how to deal with this problem?
Any idea?
Regards.

That's weird, are you sure you're using the same google account?
Also this is probably better suited to the general forum.

Yes, I am using the same account; I also make the payments with my Google Checkout account and I receive the same confirmation emails to my same address.

[APP] Google Maps 6.0

Google has released Maps v6.0! Get it while it's hot!
EDIT: I'm a n00b an couldn't install it due to non-standard DPI... if you can't update, set your DPI back to 240 (default) and then clear data for Market.

Not if you have a nonstandard DPI you can't download from the Market. I posted and then immediately discovered my mistake (see my post revision history). Also, I thought people might like to know that a new version of Maps was out.
any google apps is auto update. Please stop wasting space in here. Such a NOOB topic.
Wow, people are rude.

Yea dude dontbe rude. Besides, some Google apps require manual update sochat you can accept stuff. And on stock, unless you manually installed maps from market, it won't even notify....and it's a good discussion topic...

Thanks man, I was redoing my own personal rom and thought.....I wonder if any of the system apps have updated. I will put this in my rom. I appreciate people trying to help.
Agreed, unless someone asks a blatantly dumb question to a dev theres no need for the remarks. The point of these forums are to spread knowledge of the android platform and not get all high school on people.

Mind your language here peeps..... Play nice!
If an app has permission changes you must manual update. Some people wouldn't check to update maps, like me, unless a post like this, so for someone it was actually helpful. This is why i'm kind of leary on coming back to xda, they might ban me for nothing again, or speakin up for myself so let me start off on the right track. leave the guy alone though, it was a good look, at least for me. THX YO
and im not noob i flash phones i did 2 more today, i just dont check MAPS one of the preinstalled apps to be updated... i only update like every 4 days or so and then the manuals like every 3 weeks

True. I'm thinking of moving to RootWiki. For the most part most mods are retards who don't read to see who provoked the issue to begin with. They grab the ban hammer and start going crazy while laughing maniacally.
Thanks for the update. Question, can't you delete it with titanium and download it from the market?

Ok - so here's the deal. After reading through this thread, it's become obvious that a number of things are going on.
1. Forum Rules state search before posting. It is accurate to state that you should be searching the internet as well as XDA to do your due diligence before posting a question.
2. Rule #13 is always going to be a tough one
15. Keep posts/threads on-topic
Whilst a minor amount of off-topic posting may be overlooked, the general rule is your posts / threads must be relevant to the Forum / thread in which you are posting.

3. There is a fine line between abusive/trolling posts and those that are seeking to be helpful, especially when you can have people who do not have English as their primary language.
So here's the deal. Don't feel like you need to take it upon yourself to be snippy and tell other users what they should do. Sometimes the best response is no response. Also, if you feel there is a post/thread which violates the Forum Rules, then report it and let us Moderators deal with it.
I am closing this thread as it's served it usefulness.

Google Play/Market wont work

Anyone knows how do i get Google Play/Market to work on my phone.
I get a message that i have to create an account.
Here's my story.
Flashed 7.1 for the very first time on my Desire and worked like a charm until i started on Google Apps.
I downloaded the version CyanogenMod 9 on the SD card and installed.
On the first attempt i did not get any Google Application except for the Google Play/Market.
I could not use it because it kept on throwing Sever Error. I installed Market Enabler as a fix but uninstalled it because it did not figure out how to use it.
I then hard rebooted the phone, cleared Dalvik Cache and re-installed the CyanogenMod 9 (Google Application package again). I did not get any lock screen but this time it installed Facebook and Twitter. There was no Google e-mail available so i could not use market again.
The third time i used CyanogenMod7. Installation was painless but as soon as the phone shows the lock screen it went back to the loading screen with Android icon.
The fourth time i tried CyanogenMod9 again but this time i only got Google Play/Market.
I used 5 presious hours yesterday and had to roll back to the original ROM because i could not get the Market to work.
Reply in the right section and you might get a decent reply, this is development only. you need to put it in Q/A section or in the thread for the rom you used.
Wrong section. Reported.
Don't post here anymore - it's no use bumping this to the top of the forum, only annoying.
As for you, OP - you're an I-D-I-D-O-T-H.

A little respect wouldn't go amiss. (as your here to 'help' as your sig says). The poster above you said all that needed to be said.
Erm - if I was going to infract the OP for posting in the wrong section, I would definitely infract the rest of you for flaming.
This is very simple: report the post. Do not reply. Do not flame. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. Let me deal with 'training' the user to post in the correct forums - that's my job.
To the OP, some guidelines:
1. do not post in Development.
2. if you have to ask, 'should this go in development?' the answer is almost always no.
3. when in doubt, see rule 2, and post it in General. If it belongs in Development, it'll get moved.
Posting in Development is like true love - when it happens, you'll know!
A bit lame but I hope that helps.
Who the hells Erm?
kite edit: just my personal take on "um" or "uh".
Back on topic!

Smart Remote fpr HTC One

So, I was just looking to see if Smart Remote had been updated to include something that they promised me would be coming up soon, and it was not there in my list of apps in the play store. Doing a Google search brings up nothing! Why am I posting here? Because this app was recommended by HTC, both on their blog, and in their recommended section in the play store! HTC has even deleted their blog post. I paid $10 for this app! Does anyone have an explanation? I'm feeling very ripped off right now, and I can't help but blame HTC, at least partially, as I only got the app because of their recommendation (which, to add insult to injury, they've deleted!).

Thanks, but try reading my question first. I was asking if anybody knew what happened. I already contacted the play store and got a refund, so that's not even the point of this thread.
Anyways, for anyone interested, there's an ongoing thread in the S4 forum. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351176
Was this the one made my TouchSquid? I had a few issues with it myself and got my refund from the developer last month, but a few days ago I got an email from them telling me to try this
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=zappir&c=apps
Its another remote but made by a different person?
