Howdy,
I use a captivate on At&t's network and I was using Cognition 2.36b with no problems(regarding the Market). Now I've installed Cognition 3.01 and the Market does not allow me to bill to my At&t account.
I assume this is because 3.01 is based off a rogers modem(from what I've read??)
Is there anyway to get an At&t version of the market? Or fake the location?
I see V 2.2.11 is out...will these fix the issue?
Thanks a ton for the help! I really appreciate it
don't know if this will work, but download market access: http://amip.tools-for.net/wiki/android/marketaccess
and set it AT&T (310410 I believe) and see if that helps
edit: bah, just downloaded to take a quick look-see, but seems it's already set to 310410 for me and I don't have the bill-to-carrier option
I tried replacing the Vending.apk and MarketUpdater.apk from Cogn2.38.
Also, tried the MarketAccess app.
Nothing seems to get past the problem and let the Market work as AT&T. Probably some Rogers stuff in the rom blocking it.
I also had no luck with the market access app. I never did try 2.38, I assume that the billing option was available there?
Thanks for the replies! Hopefully we can come up with something as a fix
I've also tried Market Enabler with no luck...
Not here either
I'm running 2.3b8 and don't have the option anymore either. It was available on JH7 so it's something with the ROM.
It could be att blocking it....
I am on cog2.3b8 and it worked a week ago. And i tried just yesterday BEFORE i flashed 3.0 and it no longer worked.
If ive done my research correctly, 2.x is based on AT&T's stock rom. 3.x is based on rogers version of 2.2. That would make sense why the market isn't working, and why our markets did work with 2.x versions of the rom. I just dont understand why the market enabler apps aren't working...
Hopefully a solution pops up soon

It works fine for me.
Theres a app call MY MARKET, it will let u browse all the avaiable apps unblocked

Also, i changed my home on my browser. might want to give that a try. i went to google.com, instead of the rogers homepage.
My home was google.com automatically. The MY Market app is good to browse other carriers apps, but it doesn't allow billing to AT&T
Thanks for the continued ideas...
Market Hijacked
I don't know if this is related or not, but I'm posting here because this showed up on my ATT Captivate a couple days after I flashed Cognition 3.01
Whenever I bring up the Market App, I get the following message:
" Warning: Your device may not be compatible with Android Market.
Contact your device's manufacturer for more information. "
Also- most of the apps that show up are bogus, and simple searches provide no results. Graphically - it looks just like the normal Android Market app - but it is filled with a lot of nonsensical apps - along with a few genuine (?) apps.
Most have no user reviews, or have reviews like: "this is a test"
Many are "authored" by devs with names like: "Testing pubsite" , "UK developer" , "tester r35" , and many more, similarly named.
In addition to this, my market history ("My apps") was EMPTY, even though the (many) apps I downloaded and installed after the Cognition flash all seem to be available and functioning properly.
This behavior did not appear until yesterday - I had been using the Andriod Market without incident for ~ 3days after flashing the Cog 3.01 ROM.
The only difference I saw was that the AT&T tab on the Market's startup screen was replaced with "My apps" - but I expected that with a custom ROM.
It would seem MY phone's Market app is taking me to a different site - not THE Genuine Android Market.
Is there any way to patch the phone's MArket app to restore either :
the Market released with COG,
the "normal" AT&T Market app, or
ANYTHING else that would be useful ??
Thanks in advance for the help !!!
I may be mistaken, but isn't your android id linked to the market? I wonder if you need to use Android ID changer to change back to your original Android ID?

Certain apps of mine don't seem to be updating to the latest version or showing the update button in Google Play.
For example if an app received an update from the devs today and I want to update it, it doesn't allow me to.
Any ideas why?
Thanks!

maybe that version of the app isn't compatible with your android version?
This is my first Android phone so I am not sure what the update policy is on Android apps from the store.
I have a few apps that I have purchased from the App store, the store shows that there is a newer version than what I have installed but it is not giving me the option to update. For example, Gravity Screen. The changelog indicates 1.74 is the newest. I currently have 1.73.

google offers developers something called staged rollout, so the devs can roll out the updates in the first row only to a few number of users
you'll get your updates usually within 1 week delay (max)
Quick, somewhat random question. In Google Play, on the app details page, it identifies the date of the last update. The page also used to display the latest version of the app.
Does anyone know if it is still possible to quickly identify the version number?
Cheers!
I manually updated Play Services through APKMirror about a month or two ago and have since been paranoid that I installed the wrong version for my phone. I was hoping someone could verify the correct last three digits of the version for the Verizon M8 to see if I need to reinstall.
Thanks for any help!
Mine is -038.

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, if you manually update Play Services, it fully replaces the previous version, so while you can read the last three digits in the place you mentioned, they only show you the latest version you updated, not necessarily the correct version that originated on your phone.
Anyway, I ended up uninstalling updates (which can only be done by going into Security and unchecking Android Device Manager, otherwise all options in the Apps page are grayed out). Once I did that, the Play Store automatically notified me to update Play Services and it reverted back to the correct version.
