Wow... It looks like it was redesigned for landscape screens... Like tablets. I like it. Was the update automatic?
I had to apply the update

Sorry, I think I misunderstood- you were asking the same question. Me duh.
I have not done the Build.prop edit and I can find everything I search for, but after I update I had to do the basic market fix again.
Also I used the update file and flashed with clockwork mod
Nice interface, but not the full market. Games like Tank Hero and other apps still do not show up.
Update:
Seems the graphics are broken, since stars for apps are cut off and no button options to actually update the apps.
Something is wrong with this app in relation to the Gtablet and at least TnT 2.20.
Looks like I will be restoring with clockwork, since this app appears borked as far as interface.
Did you folks actually try to update or download an app?
Update 2:
OK, the tiny cut-off line above the uninstall icon bar is what you press. Just have to be precise to press it, but it works. Press it twice.

Confirmed, couldn't find Tank Hero though it shows up on a search. To be honest, I'm not sure if it showed up prior to me updating the market. Was that game available on the original market fix? I'll try applying the market hack to see if there's any difference, but so far all the apps I've looked for have been able to be downloaded. May pull the trigger on Pinball Ride as I'm hooked on that game. Since I just did an update, all my apps remained so I haven't had to reinstall any.
I've downloaded quite a few apps. D/L'd about 4 screenshot apps til i realized they don't work on the tab.

Flash 10.1 just became available in the market. seems to be final (probably being released with the flash summit going on right now. Checking out now!
Seems like it may have fixed a bug that would cause the browser to take forever to open once a page with flash was loaded. Sweet!
Not showing up for me. I have the Nexus One FRF91 fingerprint in my build.prop but it doesn't show when I search. Can someone post the APK?
I just received the update. So far so good.
Wth I just uninstalled Flash because I've never seen an update and it was too slow
is the browser a bit faster now?
No one's ripped this yet and uploaded...slow pokes...

I'm surprised it doesn't show for me. I have same fingerprint in build.prop as a Nexus one with latest 2.2. All other apps show up. Must be based off of some other property in the build.prop.

Thanks Dude
not sure if its due to the final version of the flash player but one thing that i noticed is that justin.tv videos play alot more fluid and thats over 3G
Changelog plzzz...installed and running mine
Why does the market claim Flash Player 10.1 is 4.25MB, yet after its installed Android says its 12.52MB?
It's an archive. Like a zip file. When you install, it gets decompressed. I'm sure that almost all of your apps take up more space than their .apk file.
Ok, just checked a few other apps and you're correct.
Personally, I would rather the market report the size after install rather than the compressed file size

You can set it so it only activates when there are flash objects so it doesn't slow down your browser...

So I installeed tnt2.02, that was easy, but I still dont see a lot of apps, like nook or kindle in market. Am I missing a step after installing tnt 2.02 to get there?
Edit/Answer:
Thanks for the post directing me to the thread where roebeet explained how to do this, and thanks for roebeet explaining this, worked great!
For those of you who missed this part, after installing tnt 2.0.2, to get the market going follow the instructions roebeet posted at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845175
Repeated here for convenience:
roebeet said:
First off, this is not my fix and I take no credit for it - I am just passing it on. Many thanks to xguntherc for posting the original fix, and KorbenD for pointing me in the right direction on Titanium Backup.
Their posts, as a reference:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9294190&postcount=2835
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9302719&postcount=2846
I will summarize the Titanium Backup solution, as that's the one I had gotten to work. The non-TB solution did not work for me, but still relevant as some people have gotten it to work in cm:
- Get a copy of Titanium Backup and sideload it (free version is fine). http://matrixrewriter.com/android/
- Make sure the Market is working with your Google ID, of course.
- Go into Settings -- Applications -- Manage Applications and Force Stop both the Market and Google Services Frameworks apps.
- In Titanium Backup, go into "Backup/Restore", look for "Google Services Framework 2.2", click on it and then choose "Wipe Data". Then go back to the home screen.
- Run the Market app. You should get an error (that's a good thing, as that's what we want. If you don't get an error, re-try the steps above until you do).
- Reboot, and wait at least a minute after the OS is up to let things stabilize.
- Run the Market again. You should see an immediate difference.
EDIT: You might have to do one more reboot to get apps to actually download and install. I had this issue, but it might have just been me.
I tested this on TnT 1.02, but keep in mind that my TnT is further modded so results may vary. Good luck!

You need to apply the market hack: see roebeet's original post

and scroll down to "what did you change?". Even I could do it on first trial so it's really easy

Much has been written on this topic; in short, the g-tablet won't get full access to the market since it has no (phone) radio. Maybe the situation would improve with gingerbread?
The hack works. I've done it many times on different roms. Just follow the steps exactly. Then you'll get the full market.

X3 works for me. Make sure you get the error message first. That's how I know it works. I perform a reboot after that.
The hack works, I had done the same hack on the emulator I had running of Android on my PC and had access to the market.
Remember still though that the build.prop has test.keys in it instead of release.keys and some apps will not show up for test.keys.
Overall though...the Market hack will open up the market completely (minus the few exceptions)
Definately more listed but still not finding chicktionary (which is listed on the website)
Can I close this if it is solved?
i Have done it 3 times so far with no luck. When i search for angry birds or ADW or launcher pro nothing shows up. I get the error message and reboot and launch marekt which asks me to agree to the terms again and still no dice...

Not sure its definately not "full" but maybe 90%. Actually getting an android phone and will try buying what I want on that and sideloading it.
This worked great for me and I just wanted to say thanks!
Here's the new Android Market. And its the one I'm currently using and it has a few updates. Hope you all enjoy. You may need to uninstall the old market updates in order for this to install.
Go to settings/applications/manage applications. Then tap on "all" scroll down to "Market". Tap on the app and select uninstall updates. The install the apk you dl.
http://db.tt/xwRztJu
Also here's the new market in black. Its just the apk so to install it. You must have root. Then use root explorer or a file manger that has root access. Then copy and paste it to system/apps. Then change permissions. To do this using root explorer simply just long press on any app that's in the system folder and select permissions. Then look how the permissions are selected for that apk. Then long press on the new black market apk you just pasted in the folder and select permissions. Then check the boxes as you just seen on the apk that you first long pressed on to check permissions. Then make sure the folder is mounted as r/o which is "read only". You can do this by looking at the top right hand corner of root explorer and it will be a tab that says r/w. Just tap that tab and it will change to r/o. Then hit menu then select exit. Then reboot.
You should see it in your app drawer as "" Black Market""
This is the latest version 3.0.27
Link on last page of thread. If any of you would like a flashable zip let me know.
but it will only be for Ra.1.6,1.7 or Cwm2.5.
Hope you guys can use it.

I believe the reason your Evo3D has the movies section and our heros don't is because our heros are rooted.

i couldn't get your file to download - not sure if it's a problem with the file itself, or just IE9. i did find a copy elsewhere tho.
anyway, does anyone know if you can disable update notifications like in the old market (i would go to my apps and settings and disable notifications). i don't see the option here anymore, but didn't know if there was a walkaround to do it anyway?
not that i'm complaining, but i don't like how the reviews aren't in date order anymore - makes it hard to tell if ppl are having problems with the newest app update...hopefully they'll change that in the future.
Is it just me or is anyone else unable to leave reviews/stars on apps? I keep ketting a message saying something like unable to leave feedback at this time or something. I have been having so many issues with this phone in last few weeks I am about to blow it up! lol
Probally ie9. Try a different browser or threw your phone. I just hit the link from my phone and it downloads.

Hello guys,
I don't have crash bandicoot pre-installed on my sd card no more. I'd like to try out using the Native psx emulator developed by yifanlu, but when i run my crash bandicoot, it seems to get stuck on "Updating" and never changes.
I've tried the US version as well, same result. Left it on for over 2 hours and still showing Updating page and nothing moves...
Anyone have any idea what i can do?
Thanks!

Maybe you will have more luck, if you push it back to /system/app where it came from rather than just installing
Thanks for the tip, but I didn't realize that within system/app I already have the same file that you uploaded. So I installed it from that location, but when I try to open it. All it keeps saying is updating... And I don't think it changes? Is it meant to change page to say maybe downloading or something? Is it meant to take ages to download?
This is getting quite annoying =.=
Anymore tips? Or should I just keep leaving it on the updating page?

Problem Solved
I went back through and started replacing .apk's i had deleted. I even tried installing crash different ways, put it back into system an still no good, installed to sd card didnt work, installed to system normally didnt work. So when the Syphon Filter didnt work for me either, and I had all the sd files for syphon filter already, but even that said updating. It wasnt crash. There is an app called "preinstalledservice.apk" and idk why but none of the sony playstation game apps would work without it. Just put that .apk back into system apps and change permissions on it. Everything works great now, oddly enough the preinstalledservice.apk also has a weird looking icon... I attached it below, almost like its smiling with razor like teeth just because it knew I was gonna need it back in system lol....
Is your phone unlocked? I read somewhere that if your phone is unlocked then you lose drm support...since unlocking my phone I have not been able to download any new xperia games.....

Interesting...... On another forum someone mentioned how Sony said a long time ago the emulator will work on Tegra 2 (which it does, as in the Sony S1 tablet). However you would think ok then why wouldn't it work on any Tegra 2 phone, well the Playstation Certification of course. But what could that entail? Simply a build.prop modification? Based on this maybe not, maybe this .apk is specific to hardware to make sure that its running on PS Certified devices only.
Just my theory....

I would have to agree with you because without that apk I couldnt run anything. And when Syphon Filter 1 or 3 opened and froze at updating , I knew it had to be something missing on my phone because the Syphon Filters weren't released for xperia play on verizon, So they didnt need to update anything because I already had the files needed and they were modified to work on any xperia play model/carrier.

This has just been sitting in the my apps section of marketplace since I ran market doctor in Titanium Backup. I have absolutely no idea what this app does, (if anything) both the description and Whats New text simply says LocalTryTry followed by two screen shots of a three paned interface that is completely blank. Attempting to update the app fails and I can find no actual trace of it's existence on my transformer anywhere.
So I ask, what is this thing had how do I get rid of it? Frankly Its freaking me out a bit.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.asus.weatherwondered the samething. just looked on the market page. It says in the url com.asus.weather. thanks for making me look.

Using Titanium Backup just unlink LocalTryTRy (Asus weather) from the market and it stops nagging you about updates that always fail.
Well first post gets an answer pretty quick.
Pretty easy when you know how
Thanks for you help.
So instead of breaking the market link is there a way to port the update again? If I knew how I would since that seems like a better option.
