You can also extract the rar file and install it like any apk.

it works perfectly!
thx for dat!

yea yea its just easier to extract it then install like any other app!!!!!!!!!!

You don't need to uninstall the orginal Market, just run the apk and it will apply updates
I'm using the new market with an APK I got from Android Police.

I really like your theme, where can I get it?

What theme would that be?

Video Editing software from xoom...need help getting it working!

UPDATE:
I found a VideoEditor.apk in the SGS2 dump. I tried install with astro and it could not be installed. Dragged it to system/app folder and it did not show up in the app drawer. Could anyone be able to get it working?
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18421884/VideoEditor.apk
__________________________________________________________
I took the Videoeditor.apk and .odex files from my buddies Xoom and put it on my G2x but it didnt work
Xoom Obviously is Tegra also so I am assuming in the right hands someone could figure this one out. Let me know if you think this could be possible.
If your interested in trying to get a fix, here are the files:
videoeditor.apk : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18421884/VideoEditor.apk
videoeditor.odex : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18421884/VideoEditor.odex

Boot Animation Request?

I don't know how and where to post this so I'll put this here...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAyE7IPAm-I&feature=related
Can someone make this into a boot animation with the sound and full instructions? Please and Thanks
Give me a couple of days.
Do you want that "transformers" banner logo in there? I'll make a couple different versions layer on tonight.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Ok thank you very much.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I would like one with all the gears and things turning without any of the Transformers faces or words in it if that would be okay. Thanks!
I have the first one ready to test. This is exactly as it appears on the video.
To install:
Download the file, or files if you want the audio. Rename the animation file. Depending on the rom you are on, it could be bootanimation.zip or VZW_bootanimation.zip. Extract the mp3 from the android_audio.zip. Find your current boot animation one and rename this one to that exact name. Either rename or move your current boot anim, just in case you don't want this one. Now place the renamed file and the mp3 into the same folder you found the original one in. Again, depending on the rom, this could be in system/media or system/customize/resource.
Let me know how it works out for you guys. I will do a couple more versions of this also.
Works great! It's in landscape but it works good. Could you make one in portrait without all the transformers faces and words? Sorry, I don't mean to sound picky. Thanks a lot! Awesome work.

I'm not sure. You need root permission to write to system, not sure if astro has that. I know es file explorer does. I could make you a flashable zip if you can tell me where it goes in your Rom.

The worst is it won't let you write the file, so nothing basically.

Try es file explorer. They recently added root capabilities. Go to settings towards the bottom and turn on root explorer and mount system as rw. That should let you copy the boot to the right folder.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
No such luck. So I have to reflash after I place new bootanimation in appropriate folder?

What do you mean reflash? The entire Rom? No.
Edit. I just reread our conversation. Are you trying to place it in the zip for the Rom that you downloaded? If so, why? Use es file explorer, go to system/customize/resources and place the file in there, not in the zip.

But delete the other boot animation. I'll try it later once kids go to sleep. Thanks for all your help.

You need to change permissions after pushing the apk. Then reboot and fix permissions in cwm. Then reboot and ur good.

(Solved) Downgrading Google play to old 2.0 market

I figure why not and downgrade to the classic android market, don't care for Google play much. So how would I downgrade to a very early version like that and prevent it from re-updating back to Google play?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
Well, you could find an apk somewhere for an older version (extract from a rom, for example) and delete/freeze market updater apk.
This is a good idea

[APK] Old Market v2.3.6
What coccolino_dbro said. Here's the apk for old Market v2.3.6. Got it from BlackICE ROM for HTC DHD.
Thank you, so I would freeze market updater with nobloat and then install this apk which would replace the current one?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
I disabled the market updater with nobloat, that should hold right?

Try deleting MarketUpdater.apk and the Google Play apk through a root file browser. I think Google play apk is called Phonesky.apk and not Vending.apk. Anyway delete both those files from your /system/app folder and then move the old market apk to the folder. Set permissions to rw--r--r (same as all the other apps in the folder) and reboot. Should work now. Copy the MarketUpdater.apk to your SD card before deleting, just in case.
