Android Market - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Android market on Transformer is not showing the ratings (and number of ratings) of each app until you open the detail of an app. Is it just me?

Just you. Working fine here.
But still can't find a way to rate app and app version shows 0.00b for all apps

That's strange. I have tried rebooting, force close market. It's still not showing ratings when I browse. But if I do an app search, the list returned has ratings.

[Q] Market - rating apps

In the Market app, how can I rate apps / provide reviews? On my phone it's obvious, but on the Honeycomb version of the Market app I can't see an equivalent feature.
Is this feature missing, am I blind, or is it just cunningly hidden somewhere?
I've noticed this as well. I hope someone has an answer
You can't from the actual app. It's not a feature that was implemented (yet). If you wish to rate an app you can either use the browser on the tablet and access the market from there (as long as you have it set to tablet or desktop view), or use a desktop pc.
This is annoying... still not implemented.
I've got the market 3.1.5 and can rate and review from my device =)

Zinio magazine app port request

Anyone port over the Zinio magazine app from the honeycomb tablet yet?
Tried to find in the app store with no luck.

I'd not bother until a more polished version of Zinio is released.
I've a Xoom on 3.01, the current app is slow and unresponsive when zoom in/out and navigate within a magazine. I also got low memory warning when using it.
I really don't think the app will perform any better on a single core and 512mb of ram device.
They did state on their market page that a 2.2+ version is in the work.
I had zinio on the ipad, it was a great app! can't wait to try it on my tab now...
Just wait till they re-release it again. No idea why they disabled the current version for our Tabs though. Stupid decision.

Just search for zinio in the xda forums. There is an app already out there because we have been using it on our USA tabs for months now. It works perfectly fast and has landscape also.

The Zinio app was not showing up in the market till I changed the build.prop using the Xoom's settings. There is a thread on Modaco where Paul did this to his Asus Transformer, to get some other app. Not able to find that thread now...
Anyway, after rebooting, I searched for the Zinio app on the Market and voila, it was there!
Worked perfectly. Even managed to download a few mags (they have a 25 mags for free offer till June 15). It did not notice any weird problems with the Tab even though it was now pretending to be a Xoom!
The only problem i had was that Dolphin HD and Swype started crashing. Since I use Xscope, Dolphin HD was not a big issue. But Swype was.
So, i reverted to the original build.prop, rebooted and... well, the Zinio app had vanished! (Swype and Dolphin HD were back to normal, though).
To be clear, the Zinio icon had gone missing, even though the app was still showing up in the Applications list. Went to system/apps, copied over the Zinio app, reinstalled... but the Open button was greyed out.
Anyway, on to the second fix. Using the Samsung Reader Hub gave me the "newer version available" message. Which of course, was not available for download! So I deleted the Zinio app from system/apps and opened the Reader Hub again. Well, the Read Magazines link had an "Install" icon on it now. Tapping on it downloaded the latest version! Which did not throw up any errors and let me download magazines just fine.
So now I am on the original build.prop with the latest Zinio app. I suggest you try deleting it from system/app and reinstalling it from Reader's Hub. That should do the trick. As a last resort, use the Xoom build.prop trick.

have you tried looking on market.android.com? It should show you any recent purchases under my account or you can also look under my library too and see if you can find it there too.
this was a free app. how can I see history using the old market app?
ok. I see where you meant. the app is not showing anywhere...sucks

When I start it ti's giving me an error and does nothing. How can I fix that?
Try googling the app name to see if someone has the apk hosted. Usually works for me when the crap market search engine fails to locate apps I've downloaded and used many times in the past.

Google Play

So I was in the process of downloading an app tonight when I was prompted with a terms of service agreement I had to ok before proceeding.....it looked like every other I've ever seen so without second guessing I hit ok.....shortly after I get a prompt that Onavo has scanned my "GooglePlay" store app for me and its data friendly. I never heard of that app so I check my apps and its not in my app drawer, but it shows up in "manage apps". Hmmm. So I look online for info and find the market is now google play. I opened the market and sure as **** there it is.

Yep heard they've changed all of the market everything Google play something now i think they're changing the market to Google play market or something and yea my onavo flagged it as a possible data hog i guess it makes sense since it's streaming

Also there seems to be some pretty nice 49¢ apps and 25¢ songs on the market.

They also changed Books and Music to Play Books and Play Music

[Q] Strange app possible malware

I have found a weird app that I did not install on my app list in google play. When I click on it to open it it opens polaris office. I am afraid it is malware but I have never downloaded any app that isn't a known developer. I have avast running and it doesn't detect anything. I don't even visit any unusual sites so I don't know how I could have gotten a virus/malware. It only appears on my google play app list not on my settings > apps list.
I am rooted with viper, cwm 5.0.0.4 and using revolver 4 beta with the blades kernel.
screenshot is attached its at the bottom
Ok so I used android commander to remove the polaris office and now it went away. I think it must have been some error with the market/google play

This showed up for me as well after rooting with Viper. I'm sure its nothing.
