Guys this might be repost but I know that I had a very hard time finding a working voice search app for our x10. There were so many out there. With the updated filmware none of the old apk's worked. Here is the new one. Install like a normal app.
is this the one that comes on world generic?
Alright!!!! Thanks!
on free x10 2.2 you can install updated google apps.
no need for installing.
let xRecovery do his thing.

Hey guys I was reading my Google reader and realized that Google just released the orkut app for Android after all. So I searched in Market on my N1 but it is not in the market. I thought it was bcoz i was running custom ROM and searched it again on my HTC Hero and HTC G1. But unsuccessful, is it bcoz I am in Canada or they never released in here..
Can any one upload the apk file for orkut from their devices if available
I appreciate it and thanks.
I'm also searching for the Orkut apk, if someone has it can he upload it somewhere?
I went into my downloads section of the market, found maps, clicked on the part where you can see more apps from the developer & it appeared for me
Here it is - http://www.filedropper.com/comgoogleandroidappsorkut
thanks a million
So many many thanks sureshg, really appreciate your help!
I can finally upload pictures to my Orkut with my mobile, love it!
PS at Beast84
It still doesn't show me the app in the market even like you say!
Hi I am also looking for this but on my froyo nexus one I can't find it in the market but my friend using the official market he installed using market4archos can on his archos 5. Anyway sureshg's link is now dead. Could either sureshg or someone elese upload an apk or link to one please. Also of anyone knows why I cant find it and/or when (if ever it will be available from the market for me?
This was taken from the market around the same time I flashed a new ROM.
Does anyone have it?
Even if we did, we couldn't post it.

Yeah, someone bought Shape Writer and took it off the market for the moment. You can probably still get in the Swype beta, my buddy just got in the other day
It is still on the Net
I found the apk file of the latest version (3.0.9) that was on the market Just try searchin' on Google for the "app name" apk. It is workin'. Now trying the Swype beta also (downloaded directly from their site from my phone), 'coz it has voice input I think, so I like to check it out.
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.
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.

I've been looking at Chinese smartphones for a while but haven't yet taken the plunge. However, a colleague of mine asked me for my opinion and I nudged him in the direction of the X2, as it would have been what I would have gone for had I gone for one...
He went for it and I am impressed. But I didn't realise (probably niaively) that it would be so dislodged from Google. Obviously not completely detached, but there is no Play Store, G+, Play Services etc as you will all know. I've been on XDA for many years and I'm somewhat of an HTC fanbuy (see my sig :laugh so I know all about unlocking bootloaders, rooting, flashing custom recoveries, firmware, custom roms etc so I am absolutely fine doing all that. He has brought the phone back to me and asked if I can help him with it; basically give him a more "westernised" Android experience I suppose
So once unlocked, rooted and flashed the (apparently) only custom rom available (KangVIP), am I able to flash a gapps package to it? And if anyone has done so, would you please be able to point me to the right one to use? He tried adding google apps from the built-in appstore but they don't play nicely (I wouldn't expect them to), presumably because the framework isn't there
Coming from a long list of mainstream devices, it's amazing to me to see a subforum with only one of two threads I understand the lack of support isn't due to unwillingness though; just a lack of owners and developers. I've been on XDA so long because of how helpful everyone is and I try to help others where I can from my experiences and techy logic
I would be extremely grateful for a little bit of advice if someone wouldn't mind :good:
Thank you all
PS - The device is the 16GB 703L and is currently running the B106 update (EMUI 3.1)

When you install the play store from the Chinese App Store it installs the Google Framework. The only two things you need to install are the Play Store and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter. You can download the GoogleContactsSyncAdapter here:

Thanks for this. I did read this in another thread actually but I was reading so much that it got lost in my brain somewhere
So at the moment play store is installed (I don't have the X2 with me at the moment). Play store won't load because of not being able to authenticate with Google servers. Also G+ doesn't work for the same reason and obviously sync doesn't work. So am I right in thinking that one sync adapter will solve all of that? If so I'll sort it tomorrow for him :good:
Thanks again

I didn't have to do anything on my new X2 other than install the play store and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter. Go into settings---Manage Apps and clear data for the play store and see if it opens. Mine opened no problem and I was able to sign into my Google account from there. When I opened maps it asked me to update Google play services and when I did the play store would no longer open. So I installed the Google play services update, rebooted and everything worked fine after that.

Excellent... Thanks a lot! I forwarded the link to him and told him to download and install it and he reports everything is working. To say he is grateful is an understatement. I was bombarded with messages at 2am saying how amazing it is
Just need to help him get rid of all of the Chinese bits now. Changing default apps and keyboard, launcher etc. He's not really interested in rooting which is a shame because of all the system apps I'd like to clear out for him but if he's happy I'll let it go. No good for my OCD though. I like a clean ROM myself

Have him install Swiftkey, Textra and Apex Launcher. Those are some of my favorite apps.

Swiftkey is standard for me so that's a definite recommendation. And yes something along the lines of Apex or Nova will improve it 1000%. At least then he can have an app drawer and either hide the stock Huawei apps or put them into a folder, never to be opened again
Messaging-wise he's already using WhatsApp but I'll mention Textra anyway
Google Play and Apps on X2
Which model is your friend having ? Mine is the GEM-702L and it comes pre-installed with Google Play and apps.

Textra is the best. I gave up swiftkey for touchPal. Also, love Buzz launcher also. And for emails, I cant give up on CloudMagic.
