I apologize for bein a noob in adavance...
Obviously I can't see all of the apps that some other phones can see in the market because they don't "support" gingerbread yet.
My question is:
Is there a way to be able to see and download those apps?
Thanks!
i can see all the apps without doing any changes. but you can try "Eris Market Fix"
requires root, not sure if it works on Nexus S or 2.3.X
A app not "supporting" Gingerbread doesn't mean you can't see it. I haven't had a problem with any incompatibility with any apps.
What are the apps you can't see?
Try searching for "reseplaneraren" (swedish, a red icon with a white tram should show up if your device is compatible).
It shows up for all my friends (froyo) but not for me.
When I go to the market on my computer and try to install it, it says my device isn't compatible.

No, not stockholm subway maps, you should see the gothenburg bus travel interface, but you probably don't because of the above-mentioned reason.
Try searching for the same thing on a froyo device.
You can also try the same thing for "SEB" (Swedish bank). Should show up as a green icon with the letters SEB in white.
My point is this: Some of the apps that showed up on my froyo device don't show up on my nexus (neither stock nor rooted). These apps show up on the web browser market but are "incompatible with my device".
I'm guessing the developers need to update their app using the latest Gingerbread SDK, or perhaps edit a string to say 2.3 (probably doesn't have anything to do with the hardware, since these apps don't use anything that is "hardware dependent").
For a small country like Sweden I'll bet it's more common that these local apps don't get updated as often as the ones you have, and that's why you haven't noticed it before.
I'd like to know if there is a file on my phone that can be changed to be able to view all of the apps in the market, or if there is another fix.

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
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
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?

It is working OK with SE X10. However, neither check-in nor buzz is available in China. We have to wait for the unlocked version
Is this brut mode?
i've got blank (white) screens on checkins etc.
It's very annoying that you have to create your cache all over again every update.
Thx. for posting the apks, Google has something against letting update the Xperia Arc with them via the Market.

They also have something against HTC Desire and Cosmote Romania. I have Google Maps 5.1 installed from a third party source and it works just fine! When I go to the Market on the PC, it says This item is not available for your carrier. On the phone, it isn't displayed at all and I don't want to use Market Access. Eventually, I have installed GM 5.3 from enuazeal. Thanks.

In Estonia we have the same problem - some applications/updates are not available via market.
If you still want to use the market:
Root and use market enabler
or
Get a SIM from a country that is "good enough" in Google's eyes
My Arc is from Germany, free of any lock or branding, why it would refuse to show it I have no idea.
But the install from apk went on just fine.

Thank you mate
However it doesn't work here in Syria, I believe Google checks the IP as well
Well my excitement for this app has improved!! I'm originally from Seattle, but I'm over here in Abu Dhabi visiting my GF for about 3 weeks, and for once my GPS can finally locate me! Granted, I have to keep the phone in Airplane Mode and the GPS icon keeps doing it's little flashing (aka no lock), but at least it's showing me on the correct intersection. I have yet to see what happens if I go outside onto a completely different block, but it's progress. Now only if there was a way to make the maps actually preload onto the phone and I could use GPS outside of the houses' WiFi so I can drive around town w/o getting lost.
She has a Captivate that I've rooted and she has installed a Du (one of their cellphone providers over here) SIM card into her phone so she can make calls, but she doesn't have a data plan. I'm going to update her phone to this version of Maps and see if her GPS acts better and/or can at least locate her based on cell tower location.
is brut mode?
I'm still running 5.0. Besides the checkin's and dashboard option, is this update really worth installing?
Are you serious? Its free!!!!

Just because something is free doesn't make it good. I've found many android app updates not worth updating to because either something is broken, drastically changed, or more useless.

Thank you for the download
Hi,
how does the offline availability work? I plan to go on vecation next month and I would like to use maps navigation but I do not have any contract in the US for data connection. Can I plan my route on it and connecting with wifi and it will download all the data needed so that I can drive just fine?
I am running the stock v2.3.4 build GRJ22 on my ns4g, but can't seem to find some apps on the market. Specifically, Google Listen, Google Goggles, Facebook for Android, HandyCards-Rewards.
Any idea why they are not showing up. I have seen in some other forums that people have them on their NS4Gs. Do I have to root it for these to work?
One of the other device forums mentioned having to do a factory reset. Is that the only option?
Pure stock? Did you root it or anything?

try going to market.android.com and downloading them from there
If its not showing it probably isnt supported with gingerbread. Although some apps might "work"
Uncle Jimmy says hello
I have experienced this quite a bit, and it is very frustrating to say the least. Essentially the market filters out "incompatible apps" based on the android version. However I would rather be able to download it and decide for myself whether it is compatible or not.
Nevertheless there is no way around it (that I could find). Myself and all the other cm7 users have experienced this since running cm7...
I would imagine there is a way to bypass it, but who knows how and how difficult it would be for that matter.
Try the following apps;
Market enabler
or
Market Doctor (by Tibu)
may fix your problem
awsome..trying now!

Most of the latest apps at android market says it is incompatible? Why is it so? I downloaded a few from other sources and works really fine! Is it the end of our phone's support for games?

just look in which section we landed!
and just cause the android market says something, doesnt make it so
On a sidenote though... ARe you sure that you
1. are logged into the browser using your phone's market account?
2. are you using market enabler on your phone? and if so, do you start it on boot or just when u need it?
the browser market thing shows ALL apps, even apps that are not available in your country so its always best to look for them in the market app directly
1. This usually happens when you use other market sources like Amazon where you get paid apps for free and then you try to update them from android market.
2. This also happens if you installed warez (cracked apps) from sites like Cyberandroid.com and then try to update them from market.
Otherwise there is no chance of this happening.
You will need to update them from the source you got them.
Plz post question in general section.

No this is not true. I had the same issue (Market app saying that app is not compatible with my phone) when I had the phone running with a changed LCD density. After visiting the Market via the app also the website showed me that many apps are incompatible. The only solution for me was to reset the density. After that everything went back to normal.
I also do not see where ayushextreme said that he is using a specific way to install apps from the market. Not the app nor via browser.
But I agree to vishal24387. This question is something for the general section.
I just noticed that the G-Tablet is once again showing up in the market.
I can see a separate device for each ROM I had installed in my tablet.
The app compatibility appears to be shown correctly.
Hmmm, my gTablet is still not appearing in the "My Devices" list on the web Market, nor as a selectable device under any app. Running Flashback 10.1, although this problem first appeared when it was running 9.0.
It didn't show up for me on BoS, but it does on flashback 10.1. I can confirm that it works for me.
My Beasty gTab just showed up in the market. Also seeing about 5 previous ROM installs.
Yup mine was not showing yeaterday with FB 10, flashed FB10.1 and today it shows. Along with about 10 other gtabs? from all the different roms! LOL
I sure wish google would give us the option to remove devices. I have a HTC hero from over a year ago, I'd like to axe with all those bogus gtabs.
OP, Nice find!
I'm now seeing my GTablet on the web Android Market again, in all its ROM incarnations. I wonder if Viewsonic worked this out with Google, or Google just re-enabled all old device histories?

Market knows G Tab, thinks it shouldn't have Honeycomb
This only just happened for me. Today is the first time mine has shown up since I reflashed Flashback 10.1. My problem is that Market thinks it is so smart, it won't let me install apps that it doesn't think are compatible, like the new Time Warner cable app (for Xoom and Galaxy). Does anyone know a good way to sideload apps from the market?
Have you tried the improved full market fix in order to get access to all apps in the Market? On newer ROMs, I have found that only steps 6 - 8 need to be performed.
[STICKY][FIX] Full market (improved market fix) on G Tablet
yes. now mine is showing !!
I too am now able to once again download and update apps on my G-Tab from the Google Android Market - yea! Looks like Google fielded enough complaints from G-Tab owners that they finally decided that adding the device was in everyone's best interest?
