Google Earth

Anyone able to install Google Earth on the sensation yet? Searched for it on market place and while it's there, once I chose it, it wont see my device and won't let me install it.
If I browse from my phone I can't even see it.
Does that mean its not supported or summit else ?

I have it on mine
Works just fine

Have you tried to open the market on your phone, then menu, settings and allow all applications? I got it and works fine... otherwise you can find it directly on the market place : https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.earth&feature=search_result

Depends which region you are in and which market and if the regiuonal market supports that particular device/ROM. I cannot get it from the market here in Singapore on the Sensation but do have it on the Flyer.

Am I the only one who has problems with Google Earth?
I mean, using normal view is ok even with ground elevation, but if I switch on 3D buildings the app becomes slower than a snail on a turtle. Of course Sense restarts when I exit.
This sure isn't a cpu issue since this happens both with stock [email protected] and [email protected] Judging from the fact that the app itself eats up almost 100-200mb or RAM (with buldings off and on respectively) it sure is a memory issue. Anything else I could try?
At least I found an easy way to clear ram when I need it or when Sense starts restarting itself! I experienced multiple restarts a while ago, free ram was always below 80mb with nothing running. So I just opened the app, browsed around the map with buildings off, and then closed it through task manager.
I'm at 180-150mb now and it hasn't dropped since

Google earth is on play store and it works great

T-Mobile USA: Anyone receive new market yet?

I still have the old market but on my MyTouch 4G (older phone), it has the new market...

I have the new 3.3.11 Android Market but I did not get it through an official update. I downloaded it and installed it via this thread. You have to install it via what ever custom recovery you use.

I actually got it automatically yesterday, I'm on Bulletproof

I posted the apk that has the free music for T-Mobile USA users in a similar thread.

I have two Google accounts on my phone and at some point have accidentally purchased apps from the Market with the wrong account. So technically I am using two different Google accounts in Market with no problems

Got also 2 accounts and i haven't noticed any problems with that, sometimes after uninstalling app it stays at the bottom of the list but after next sync/reboot its comming back to normal

Thats crazy...also the same issue on cbs sports fantasy baseball app (free). A guy on the insertcoin thread said to change my build.prop...any idea how to do that?

Pm me bro I can't say what I need on here

Does anyone have the solution for this? I'm having the same problem...

Maybe its because the market isn't recognised the ics, this happens a few times and is usually solved just by waiting.

I've got same problem, plus hundreds of games and apps has disappeared from play store, using see arc s, apps I've got installed no longer compatible, tech support told me to do a factory reset, no way, if that doesn't work how will I install all my apps again, 2.3.4 gingerbread, doomkernel v 22

That seems like a mess...
Lets give it a fresh start, which firmware version/rom/kernel are you on?

Delete your Google account from accounts & sync.
Reboot to recovery, wipe Cache +dalvik.
Reboot.
Add your Google account.
Enable the option "Keep this device backed up with my Google account" to automatically restore missing apps.
Do this, and it should be fine.

no longer a major concern with the new google play.
personally, I find it a lot easier to pick what to reinstall from the website via a desktop.

this is the response i got from Google play support, Thanks for following up and for providing those additional details about the issue you're experiencing on Google Play. In reviewing the information you've provided as well as our records, it appears that this issue is related to the fact that you're not using the authorized ROM that came with your device - using any ROM besides the factory default may cause the device to have limited functionality and may cause unexpected behavior with the Google Play Store app. Unfortunately, we won't be able to troubleshoot this issue further because the issue appears to be unique to the way your device is configured, and we can't recreate the issue with our devices here. To resolve the issue, I recommend using the authorized Android operating system provided by your manufacturer that can be obtained from their website or your carrier.

something SEVERELY wrong with google maps

Tried using navigation. With 2 different sensation phones. 1 stock, 1 rooted with revolution rom. I bet it has to do with the Google Maps app. It's been doing nothing but crashing (rebooting). Is this happening to anyone else?

No. No one else.
You are the only one.
I mean other than the 10,000,000 other people who have had the problems with Google Maps since it's most recent update was pushed with some major bugs that cause exactly the problems you are experiencing. Those bugs have been well documented and have been discussed in multiple threads in this forum as well at just about every feedback left on the Play Store for the past week specific to this exact problem.
But other than those millions upon millions of people, you are the only one with these problems.

Dude, you've just written down what I've been suspecting about Google Maps for some days now. Mine crashes too, not every day and every time, but when it does it keeps doing it. Restarting doesn't help, restarting after battery yanked out doesn't help, will crash and reboot 5-10 secs after starting Maps, and this'll go on for some time until I decide not to us GMaps anymore. So I'm gonna try with satellite settings turned off, anybody better idea?
(I'm rooted on ARHD-6.7.2 XE, OTA'd at 1.27.0000)

Apparently is an issue with Sensation 4G and the Resound

Roll back to an older version while Google gets their **** in gear.

I think this is just more than a Google Maps issue. I have 2 phones 1 with Elegancia Sense 4 v2.7.0 and one ARHD and the Elegancia has no issue. since the update of maps i have never had 1 problem and never had to reinstall or uninstall, ARHD however was so damaged by the update i had to remove it and patch the older version....
this may be a Dev+Google Maps issue.

Using CM9 stable, my sensation keeps crashing while using Google Maps,

I've never had a single problem using Google maps. Just used it the entire time on a drive from Hilton Head to DC aka 9 hours. Nav worked perfectly on CM10

Google Vs. HTC
Just a hunch but I don't think this is going to get fixed anytime soon. The problem seems limited to HTC phones (specifically the Sensation and Rezound). I suspect Google will blame HTC and HTC will either blame Google or more likely since the phone is EOL, simply ignore the issue.

FYI Elegancia uses some files from 3.32 base (to make the tweaks work properly instead of porting them) and it appears this issue is with the 3.33 bases
