[Q] [Prime v1.5 ROM] certain apps don't show in marketplace - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since flashing to the new prime v1.5 ROM certain apps don't show up in the Marketplace. The one app that doesn't show up is the one that I wrote. Everything in the AndroidManifest.xml is set correctly so I'm pretty sure that isn't the issue. When i revert to the stock ROM the app shows up. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the builds.prop file that is causing Marketplace to filter out.
Sidenote: The stock rom i'm using is version 3.0.1 and the prime v1.5 ROM is 3.1, but my app shows up for any version higher than 1.5. I've tested this on other tablets running 3.1.
Does anyone have any thoughts or idea how the marketplace determine which apps get filtered out?
I can pasted my AndriodManifest.xml or build.props it that would help.
Thanks

[Q] Cyanogen Mod Android Market Issue

Hello, I'm quite new to this, but i sucessfully rooted and installed cyanogenmod built 26 + google apps. It worked perfectly but after a short while, when I tried to open the Android Market, It says it is loading than crashes or whatever and goes back to homescreen. It sent out no error messages.
I tried reinstalling google apps, both gb and hdpi, upgrade cyanogenmod to built 27, and restoring market app to working version using Titanium Backup. They all couldn't fix the problem.
I than restore the kernel itself to stock using clockwork recovery, than the market did work.
Is there any way to fix this market issue on cyanogenmod? Or is it different issue related to Android Market?
Thanks for helping out this newbie!
I was having similar issues with CM7 so I just gave up on it until it they have a release candidate and not just nightlies.
Okay thank you for the info
I think I'll stay with the stock kernel or some other stable rom.
btw, how does the nightly build cyanogen mods work? Like why is it every night, whats the difference of every built, when will the stable version comes out?
Thanks
I have CM 6.1.1 and I have the same problem with market app.
I tried restoring the market app I was using before i flashed to CM6.1.1 but market app crashes, it opens up and the home screen is displayed again.
I tried downloading the market app apk and installing it but I faced the same problem again. Anyone have any idea how to go about this?

you just bumped a months old thread.
you're using CM 6.1.1, this is discontinued -- you're probably trying to use new markets on 2.2
its also pretty obvious that you don't have a Nexus S either :\

[Q] Cannot install/update new version of Google Maps & Gmail

I noticed that there are new version of google maps 5.7.0 & gmail 2.3.5.
I don't know why I cannot update them on my Xoom. My Xoom is on 3.2 Tiamat ROM.
Can somebody help me to update it ?
Thanks
You need to be root. Follow this post for Maps Update.

No root, 3.1 3g xoom
Gmail on the market isn't compatible with my xoom. What up with that?

My xoom has already got rooted . I've also already tried the method. The problem is I cannot find any googlemaps in the market.
The GMail on the market is for anything up to Android 2.3.4 only since your Xoom has Gmail 3.2 which is newer than 2.3.4, remember 3.2 is a higher version #, Honeycomb 3.1 comes with Gmail 3.1.

Is there anyway to find out the version of gmail in xoom? When I check in setting>about, there is no statement about the version.

Version code, not the user-oriented VersionName is used by the market to determine newer APK. They must be Max SDK filtering. Its actually listed as incompatible on honeycomb.

Manage Applications in Settings or Titanium Backup will show it. Honeycomb 3.1 comes with Gmail 3.1 and Honeycomb 3.2 comes with Gmail 3.2, both are 3.x while the market version is 2.x.
I have a completely stock US WIFI only Xoom and Maps updated to 5.8.0 automatically.
I have posted a couple methods for updating Maps in the Tiamat rom thread

Which Tiamat ROM are you using? Manta Ray states that not being able to update maps is a known issue that is being worked on. Looked under the "Release Notes" section on the first post here:

[q] [problem:notfixed] zedge not working with any ics rom

Hi Guys I consider myself just above noob and have a problem with all the ICS ROM's i have tried, have followed the wipe and install to the letter with full wipes, but for the life of me i am unable to get the ZEDGE app to work, i am currently on AndroidHD v1.0 with Eugene373's kernel
I9020 neuxus s fully rooted.
some one please help cant post on any of the rom threads as i apear to be to new
i've changed 3 more ROM's and all showing same problem, can anybody with ICS on their phone confirm if they can use ZEDGE fully.
ok fixed
ok it seems to have something to do with ZEDGE changing and messing with permissions of the app. i have deleted the current version and found an older version on fourshared and it all good.

Ultimate Special Fx for TB?

Is there a working TB ROM that would allow us to download and play this App "Ultimate Special Fx"
It says it requires Android v2.3.7 Gingerbread or higher to run.
I'm running ThunderShed CM7 , when I last checked said it was 2.3.7.
Any thoughts ??
android versions
i've never heard of or used ultimate special fx, but you are correct, thundershed is android version 2.3.7. as i'm unfamiliar with the app in question, and am not sure if there are other hardware/software prerequisites to running the app besides the android version, i can only break down android versions types of roms use as a base. the open mobile leak/mr4 roms are android version 2.3.6. the roms based off of 2.11.605.9 are android 2.3.4 i believe. but yes, in theory, thundershed should be able to run the app.

Thanks for your reply here is the link to the APP. I was also looking for prerequisites but all that is says 2.3.7 and above. I'm wondering if Play Store is set to block all TB roms till the official ICS for TB is released by VZW.
Check out Ultimate Special Fx on Google Play! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.techcatmobile.ultimatespecialfx
Yes, play store restricts apps you can view based on your device id and android version for compatibility reasons, and to protect consumers from purchasing apps they can't run. Also, devices can be blocked from viewing apps in play store because the developer has chosen to restrict them or doesn't support them. Custom roms also sometimes change the device id in the build prop to one that play store doesn't understand or recognize. It's still possible to get around this though. You can either download the app from your computer and move it to your phone, or modify your build prop file with a root browser to reflect a different and compatible device and obtain the app normally. With either course of action, the app chainfire3D can be used to scale the graphical/processing demands of ultimate special fx to fit the thunderbolt's gpu. Keep in mind, I personally haven't tried to do this, it's just a suggestion to try if you're bound and determined to get the app. Hope that helps.

Here is the APK file. I dowloaded it via my PC and threw (USB) it over to my TB and it works good.
Please Note** You still need to be v2.3.7

[Q] Using system app from stock on AOSP?

Hi, cause I didn't want to wait for an official JB update, I recently installed "SuperXE" AOSP Rom, JB 4.2.1. It's very nice, but i really need an app that can handle office document formats, especially those of MSO. As my phone originally came with "Polaris Office", I'd like to continue using this app -- is this possible?
Just putting the apk from stock HTC ICS in /system/app doesn't do anything. It's possible to install it normally, but then it crashes when I try to launch it. Didn't have the time to check logcat for that so far, but maybe someone can tell me if this ist just impossible to do OR what I'm missing, thanks!

probably it is compatible for sense based roms if i am not wrong
Didn't expect it to require Sense, because it's a "standard" app also available for other phones. But never mind that, just read somewhere else that it isn't compatible with JB at all.
The originally included game "Teeter" won't work on JB AOSP either, but as I don't find this version in the store, I guess missing Sense could be the problem in THIS case, right? It won't even install normally (e.g. clicking on the APK in file explorer). It's a game, so, not important at all -- but it was nice
