What's wrong with my phone? Market bugs - Droid 2 Global General

See attached
Currently running Fission on my D2G. Not sure why apps are missing from the market (especially Google Maps) - the Android market website states my phone is incompatible with it for some reason.
What should I do?

[Q] Market.apk for At&t with Cognition 3.01

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

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?

Keep Getting Message That Marketplace Item Is Not Compatible With My Device

Using TNT LITE 4.2 trying to install My Movies application but it won't allow me to install, says the item is not compatible with my device... how is that possible? I'm new to all this but shouldn't all android apps work on android devices? This app requires android 1.6 and up, I have 2.2. Anyone know what's going on? I tried another app and got the same message.
I only get this problem with the web based market. Running market from my device I don't experience that issue. However I do not see all available apps from the device market probably because they are filtered out. I have experienced this with several different roms. I know that a large part of the apps you see from the device market is based on the fingerprint found in the build.prop file. I am not sure what other minor settings will affect the device market. As far as the web based market I am still experimenting. You could always download the Amazon market and see if you can find the apps you are needing to install.

Android Market error package not signed correctly

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.

[Q] Stock Rom -- Can't clear Market data and no auto-updates

On the stock Inspire ROMs, it looks like you are blocked from clearing the Market data (Settings>Applications>Market>Clear data). Also, it appears that the Market app is locked to never update past version 2.3.4.
Has anyone figured out how this is done and/or why?
I know you can side-load a newer Market APK, which will then auto-update but I'm curious why it is the way it is.
That's interesting. I see no reason why the Market would be locked on an old version, especially since Google is now changing everything to Google Play. Here's the apk if you want to do it manually.

[Q] Google Components for Gingerbread 2.3.4

Hi everyone, I was wanting to know what all the different components of Google are on Gingerbread 2.3.4 (LG Enlighten vs700 phone). I ask because Google Play Store doesn't work. It keeps prompting me, "Sorry! The application google play store (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. please try again. force close is the only option when i get this message, and it does reappear.
I have spent weeks on this - there are hundreds maybe even thousands of forums out there all devoted to this error. Seems like a huge volume of phones experience this error. There are a few fixes, but it only seems to work for a handful of people who have this problem.
What have I tried?
Factory reset (several times)
Reinstalling google play store, services, and market with the latest or a different version than what's on there now
youtube fix - I even reinstalled youtube
at this point, i did another factory reset last night just to start over with a clean slate - youtube works wonderfully. i have email on it. as a work around i use the amazon app store and 1 market store for apps, but it's a real bother with no google play and constantly getting the errors.
the strange part is i have a second identical phone (which is my experimental phone) - which does NOT get this error. I have no idea why one does, and the other doesn't.
the reason i was wondering about the components and versioning is as a last attempt to fix this (before i just live with it) - i was going to reinstall ALL the components google uses for the playstore to work, manually. i don't necessarily want to install the latest - i want to install the version specific to gingerbread 2.3.4. i have looked and looked online but i haven't been able to find any kind of component list (much to my surprise) the two components i have figured out are:
google play services 4.3.24 (android 2.3+)
google play 3.5.15 (android 2.3+)
