I'm running the stock "Woot" ROM (which is probably vanilla 3588 with some pre-installed apps, but I can't be certain) and have installed the Market and done the standard "market fix."
I'm able to browse the market, but the website insists I don't have any device. However, the website *does* show things I've installed as "installed." I believe that may be from when I was fiddling with TnT Lite earlier, but can't be sure.
I noticed in a thread about editing build.prop that doing so may break website updating, but I've never had that in the first place. That means that any time I do a market fix or switch ROM's that the Market doesn't know about any previously-purchased apps. I might try risking $1.98 and purchasing something then seeing what happens if I try purchasing it later.
Like others, I'm frustrated by what doesn't appear in the Market that I think should: Firefox and Google Earth in particular.
I think ive found that clicking on a link to an app will open it even if its not found in the search. there was an app i couldnt find earlier but it was there when i clicked a market link to it. installed just fine
If you want Firefox to show up after the market fix is applied you need to edit the build.prop - discussed a bit in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1017368
It also will show up before the market fix is applied. I am also having web market problems - no luck there so far.
Regarding Google Earth... never been able to see it in the market. I went as far as searching for the APK to sideload and it simply wouldn't work. Not sure why - it just froze when opening. I am guessing there is some sort of incompatibility with the gTablet...
I recently put cm7 on my moms gtab, and I found google earth in the market and it runs just fine

I never tried to find Google Earth after editing the build.prop. Just did and it was not only in the market but worked great. Maybe CM7 uses a different build.prop by default than vegan 5.1.1. I must have side loaded an old copy before when it didn't work.

Wrong! Paid applications are tied to your Google Account. As long as you log in to your Google account, all your paid apps are available to you in the Market application. However, if you are using a fingerprint in build.prop that Google does not recognize, your paid Google DRM protected apps will not show up; however I believe all ROM's are using a recognized fingerprint (Nexus 1 on TnT-Lite) so we don't have to worry about that.
According the Market, the Music Beta app is incompatible with the Sensation Possibly because of the qHD screen.
So has anyone got the app that they could rip and upload so I could download it? I also don't want the leaked app from a few months ago, I want the current app
Thanks!

Uuum it's working perfectly on my sensation
I just got the invitation today and installed the app on my phone and just works
Hmm. That's odd. If I go to the Market on Chrome and try to install it, it won't let me, telling me it's incompatible.
Could you use adb to pull the app then upload it here for me? Although I don't know if this needs root permissions
Solved! PaulOBrien just uploaded the newest version of the app.

I'm all over the place.
I'm running one of the earlier versions of gummycharged and I factory reset my phone. Everything is good except that I completely lost my market. I can't find it anywhere on the phone. Any ideas on how I can get it back?
Nevermind. I went out to a website that offered their app from the market and selected download from android market. It pulled up the T&C's for the market and then the market was back.
Hey, guys.
Since there's a 10 cent sale, I can't pass it up. There's 2 apps I got on the Amazon Appstore for free, but they're on the market for 10 cents. Might as well pay the 10 cents and get better support and updates through the Android Market.
However, the Android Market shows I have those 2 apps... but I can't download them because it keeps coming up that I haven't paid for them. Duh! It won't let me purchase them either. It keeps coming up "Error - The download was declined because you haven't purchased it."
There's no buy button. Just install. I Force Closed Market, cleared cache, and cleared defaults. Still the same problem. What can I do?
Have you tried from a computer?

No luck there.
It's solved. Google says their payment system is updating. It's on their end. Didn't get an ETA for when it'll be fixed. Probably later tonight is my guess.
I'm now having the same problem for swiftkey... did it ever get resolved for you?
Uninstall the Amazon version of the app.
Purchase it from the android market.
Have a nice day.
I have the same problem and even if I uninstall the app from Amazon Appstore, Android Market continues telling "install" instead of "buy".
If I try to install : Market tells me I didn't purchase it...
I'm in the same boat, I have uninstalled the other version, tried unlinking it with TB and I still can't buy some apps
I have the same problem. I couldn't even manage to buy with (old) Market version 2.2.11.

I remember an option to "buy the app anyway" after the screen "you haven't purchased it", when I was using old Market.
I'l try to downgrade the Market to see if the option is still available...
just chiming in to say i'm having the same problems as everyone else, I can't find a work around.

The old market says the credit cards I attached to Google checkout are invalid. It is very strange because they are usable on Market 3.3.11...
This has been driving me crazy since yesterday...but I think I found a fix.
Following the suggestions from Sygmasf (credit goes to him) on this link:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=39a174b42dfab155&hl=en
I uninstalled the app in question and removed it's folder from the phone completely. Then, I installed the old version of the market he links to (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=743249&d=1318041888) and I was able to download the app I wanted.
The app I wanted was SoundHound and in the old version of the market that I had to install it showed as $4.99 but when I clicked to download it actually showed it was only charging me $.10.
YeeHaw! Now...if I could only get back to the "new" version of the market...
ETA: I just restored Market from a previous Titanium Back-up I had and I'm back to the latest and greatest!

I was having the same problem with Beautiful Widgets that I got from Getjar Gold Apps and that worked for me.
I froze the Market (and updater), installed the older market and bought the app (it was highlighted with green and showed the €0.10 price). Thanks!
I had problems installing the apk. Said 'Cannot Open File'
I got around this by going to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
Scroll to Market then Uninstall Updates. That rolled it back to an earlier version where I could buy the app.
open a ticket with Google technical support
it's a known issue, they still don't have a fix
apparently thousands of users are having the same problem

Look at the link I posted above Mate...
Hey does anyone in here know what the pRoblem is with some of the apps in the market getting the package not signed correctly error? It happens if i had a previously themed version of that app. I have Completely removed the old version from my phone, cleared market data also, and still the market will not let me download it. I even wiped my phone and tried a different ROM and still no dice. I flashed the old school market from froyo and everything was good. Why is this a problem with the newer markets? Fyi i don't want to use the old market i want the new one to work right. Any ideas? Or reasons why it's like this?

Nope. note for an example, i have been running Google music i got from the market for a while. I decided to run a themed version cause i wanted black. Well now i want the original back and the market well not let me download it. I don't even have the themed version on my device. i sbf'd and the market still will not let me download it. I have a couple apps like that. I'll never run a themed app again if it means i can never run the normal one again.
