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?

For some reason, I can not find certain apps in the Market like the Astro Key I purchased (mind you Astro app is installed), FiOS Mobile Remote, etc. Any suggestions?
Its because those apps are copy protected, and since the leaked RUU has a build unrecognized by google at this point, those protected apps are not going to show. So unless thats the offical OTA build, those apps will never show because google has to change the market to show copy protected apps for every official build of every phone. So if that software is final, they will eventually show up, if its not, they never will, unless you root your phone and change the build string

Wow interesting I have the leaked ruu and can still see these apps in the market. Op just send an email over to Google and they will help you out don't listen to this guy. For about 6 hours yesterday I couldn't download anything (got a download unsuccessful error) emailed the market team and got a response back helping me out.

I see all the purchased apps as well including the astro pro key and it shows installed..
It's the strangest thing really. Everything else I can download except for those two apps. I will contact Google for help. Thank you everyone.
P.S. I never had this issue when I installed a leaked RUU on my Incredible except from going to Froyo from Eclair.
Agreed. Astro Key is definitely there and I running the leaked RUU.
+1 - Astro Key and FIOS Mobile Remote with leaked radio...
I'll tell you I'm fed up with EA mobile... I purchased two of their apps when I was on T-mobile... And if I'm using any device that's not on Verizon (ie T-mobile, at&t, or Sprint) the apps will show. But on any device on the Verizon network (I've tried the dinc and the TB) it wants you to buy them again. Sadly enough this is a known issue with EA mobile and they actually charge more for the same app on Verizon vs other providers. I wish there was a way to fix the issue myself as their support team has been playing dumb regarding this...

Check out the app called Market Enabler on the market. you can fake your carrier to T-Mobile for the android market.
i am an owner of a nexus s (rooted BUT stocked no rom/kernel/nothing)
Htc Desire
LG optimus one
and i have a strange problem with the google maps application
although i can see a notification that i can update the maps app when i try to all i get is an error "this video is not available in your country"
yes i know google maps is NOT a video but that's what i get in the app page
here's a screenshot i got
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
i live in greece..and i had ALL the latest updates to all my 3 phones..without using hacks/alternative apps (market enabler) etc etc..
but for the newest version 5.11 i think i simply can not update..
is there a know problem with greece or other countries?
i already posted on the google maps support and all i got back as feedback is to re-install the app witch i already did..
also add to that the google + applications gives me the same error!!!!
i too have the same problem since i have installed CM7 on my phone!
I think there is a video in the previews of this app and apparently its blocked in your country. The weird part is that the message removes the update and uninstall buttons. Try logging in to your account from your PC and go to the Android market and try installing from there. It should work.

Hey, guys.
Since there's a 10 cent sale, I can't pass it up. There's 2 apps I got on the Amazon Appstore for free, but they're on the market for 10 cents. Might as well pay the 10 cents and get better support and updates through the Android Market.
However, the Android Market shows I have those 2 apps... but I can't download them because it keeps coming up that I haven't paid for them. Duh! It won't let me purchase them either. It keeps coming up "Error - The download was declined because you haven't purchased it."
There's no buy button. Just install. I Force Closed Market, cleared cache, and cleared defaults. Still the same problem. What can I do?
Have you tried from a computer?

No luck there.
It's solved. Google says their payment system is updating. It's on their end. Didn't get an ETA for when it'll be fixed. Probably later tonight is my guess.
I'm now having the same problem for swiftkey... did it ever get resolved for you?
Uninstall the Amazon version of the app.
Purchase it from the android market.
Have a nice day.
I have the same problem and even if I uninstall the app from Amazon Appstore, Android Market continues telling "install" instead of "buy".
If I try to install : Market tells me I didn't purchase it...
I'm in the same boat, I have uninstalled the other version, tried unlinking it with TB and I still can't buy some apps
I have the same problem. I couldn't even manage to buy with (old) Market version 2.2.11.

I remember an option to "buy the app anyway" after the screen "you haven't purchased it", when I was using old Market.
I'l try to downgrade the Market to see if the option is still available...
just chiming in to say i'm having the same problems as everyone else, I can't find a work around.

The old market says the credit cards I attached to Google checkout are invalid. It is very strange because they are usable on Market 3.3.11...
This has been driving me crazy since yesterday...but I think I found a fix.
Following the suggestions from Sygmasf (credit goes to him) on this link:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=39a174b42dfab155&hl=en
I uninstalled the app in question and removed it's folder from the phone completely. Then, I installed the old version of the market he links to (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=743249&d=1318041888) and I was able to download the app I wanted.
The app I wanted was SoundHound and in the old version of the market that I had to install it showed as $4.99 but when I clicked to download it actually showed it was only charging me $.10.
YeeHaw! Now...if I could only get back to the "new" version of the market...
ETA: I just restored Market from a previous Titanium Back-up I had and I'm back to the latest and greatest!

I was having the same problem with Beautiful Widgets that I got from Getjar Gold Apps and that worked for me.
I froze the Market (and updater), installed the older market and bought the app (it was highlighted with green and showed the €0.10 price). Thanks!
I had problems installing the apk. Said 'Cannot Open File'
I got around this by going to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
Scroll to Market then Uninstall Updates. That rolled it back to an earlier version where I could buy the app.
open a ticket with Google technical support
it's a known issue, they still don't have a fix
apparently thousands of users are having the same problem

Anyone else have the issue where Market is gone after "Google Play" update? I found the apk and pushed it with adb but still, it's a little odd. Not really running anything "Custom" just some mods to the stock 2.3.6.

Market was simply replaced by Google Play. Just go through your apps and you'll see Google Play, that's the new Market.
Market is called Google Play now . It should be in the app launcher.

Yup, your old App Market icon will show not working, then will disappear upon reboot. New icon says Play Store.
I understand all of that and expected it, but what I am saying is there is no Play Store, no GooglePlayStore.apk, nor Google Play anywhere on the device. Pushing the apk resulted in no change, restoring /system.
Update:
Something must have just got borked in the OTA upgrade, I after restoring /system I forced the upgrade and we are good to go.
Yes, it is called "Play Store" now. weird name, i feel it doesn't appeal to a bigger audience.
I'm stock and mine still shows the Market. Doesn't show Google Play in the app drawer yet.
Go to application and clear data in market and then go back to market

Cleared data, went back to market, clicked Accept when the Google Play notification came up, and it took me into the market. Restarted the phone and it still shows up as "Market" in the app list and no icon for "Play Store" shows up.
Would it matter that I'm using Zeam Launcher?
Clear zeam cache or data. You will lose your customizations but it should show up

Can I just switch back to Touch Wiz launcher and do it there, and then after it is done, move back to Zeam?
Edit: Tried clearing market data from inside TW and then selecting market. Still gave me the Google Play disclosure, which I accepted, and then it still loaded the Market. Still doesn't show Google Play in the App Drawer, still shows Market, and Market still works.
I guess it doesn't matter all that much what it is called as long as I can access the market?
Same here, it's still Market for me even after I accepted the terms of Google Play.
If were running full custom, I'm assuming we don't need to change it or are they disabling the Market app entirely for this
Yes i did i downloaded it again from 4shared

Yeap same thing here, running NexusMod 4 and still showing old Market but it still works. I accept the new Google Play prompt, but its still called Market. Hope they dont disable this soon and then I got no Market or Google Play.

A few days ago I was running Silver rom. That's when my market icon was replaced with the Play icon. Flashed Red Sonja and now stock, both of which have the market icon back. Weird.
