[Q] Market (3.4.4 latest) display issues? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Have searched and don't believe there is an existing post on this.
The latest market 3.4.4 looks more like a phone market (doesn't use full width of screen in landscape - see black margins) - is this the case for everyone?
This appears the same on both Team EOS ICS and CM9 - I realise this is a trivial/cosmetic issue, but surely Google doesn't intend for it to look like this? Is 3.4.4 even supposed to be on Tablets - why would CM9 distribute 3.1.5 as latest only to have the market auto update on first open?

Market 3.1.5
Market 3.1.5 (the one distributed in Gapps 5.3 for CM9) looks great in comparison, but I cannot prevent it from auto-updating. Among other things, have tried freezing and removing MarketUpdater.apk from system/app, and;
Code:
pm disable com.android.vending.updater
pm disable works unprivileged, but fails with Segmentation Fault for su. No matter what I do, the darn market keeps on updating.

That's they way mine looks. Bugs the heck out of me too!

Hey thanks - Is it version 3.4.4 on your stock ICS?
Does it look like the 3.1.5 picture in OP?

I do have the the same problem with my xoom. My market looks exactly like the screenshot from the first post. I use the latest Team eos ics wingray build.
Any solutions to make it look like it should on a tablet?

Nothin I can find or work out *yet*

I cant understand why only a few people so have this problem.
Reflash of the rom was neither a solution.

Any solutions? Im sorry to push the thread but i still have no solution for this problem.
Thanks in advance!

I have noticed this too, mine looks like the first image.

I'm gonna put it down to bad ICS programming.

Market 3.4.4 on stock 3.2 also looks bad.

uninstall market updates
clear data/cache
freeze the vender updater apk with titanium backup.
works for me im still using 3.1.5 market on rooted stock ICS

Doesnt work for me at all

The issue remains on market version 3.4.7.
Any solutions until now?
Thanks in advance.

i have whatever version was posted on droid life last week and its still the same issue.

recently rooted phone - unable to update ADW launcher

Hey guys, im new here so be nice
i rooted my phone 2 days ago - all went really smoothly thanks to the guys on this forum. i have ADW 0.7.6 installed as part of the rooting process, but would like to update.
i downloaded the apk from the market - getting an error that the installer is not signed. i have since read that this version is for newer versions of android, so i trawled through the threads and found some older versions of the launcher.
when trying to install these i am told they cannot be installed on this phione.
another thread suggested uninstalling my current ADW and installing the newer one but as its the only launcher i have installed this is a little difficult.
i tried to install a different launcher and got a similar message.
please help?!
Not sure... Try to scan the QR code on this website

Thanks for the quick reply! nah, that just redirects to the market and that is the one that is not signed for me. i just installed advanced launcher and switched to it before attempting again....still no joy.
lol nevermind. i switched to advanced launcher. uninstalled the ADW 0.7.6 and then installed 1.0.0 and its all good. hopefully this might help someone else one day.
I faced the same problem, but found a solution.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696253
In this thread, go to the signature of the first poster (My_Immortal) and click on "Rachael modified UI ADW Launcher 1.0.1 (password: iridaki)"
Send the apk to your phone or otherwise, and install it. Hope that's what you were looking for.
Cheers

This error has noting to do with rooting or not only unique to ADW.
at the time of update in any application package when you have modified version, (rather than stock version) you will get an errors like installer is not signed.
Solution.
Option 1
Remove the modified and install latest stock version as clean install
OR Option 2
Get the modified versions latest and update without any errors.
Hope this explains the logic behind this.

[Live wallpaper] Gingerbread live wallpaper

Is there someone who can test this wallpaper?
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8510941/gingerbreadlivewallpaper.zip
I'm not rooted..
It worked for me
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
works perfect for me, NeXusOne with CM6.1 Nightly #285
Works fine here
Works like a charm.. This was obviously designed with Hummingbird in mind though, as it is slightly jerky on my Nexus One..
Speed is identical to the original 'Nexus' LWP on mine?

Yeah you are right, I think it was just jerky at the startup, but its smooth as ever. Btw, OP can you get hold of the 'microbes' lwp by any chance??
Is there a way to install this without root?
No, it needs to replace /system/apps/LiveWallpapers.apk I'm afraid.
You don't need to flash via recovery though, I used ADB to put it in place.
Where did you find it out of interest?
I dont think it works for evo.. just keeps saying copy failed

Can someone make a flashable zip? My adb is screwed lol
The file in the OP is a flashable zip.
Cool didnt work for me ill try again
works amazingly fine & absolutely no lag
Does this one have settings like the one that comes with CM? For instance turning it all red? Thx
Heres a modded version. Changed the package name from com.android.wallpaper to com.android.wallpap23
After you install this you will see some doubles, but the new Nexus one will also be there
Signed so you can install as it as a normal /data/app apk. (no root)
Still needs froyo/2.2/sdk8, didnt change that.
Note: Would have removed the older live wallpapers and named it differently if apktool worked on it...maybe later.
To uninstall:
either: adb remove com.android.wallpap23
or: try to uninstall "Android Live Wallpapers" (Settings->Apps->...), only the user-app can be removed the default system app will fail to uninstall
Works great thanks!
Nexus One/XDA App
workx here, ill flash it via ra_recovery. Just turn off signature verify and it's was installed !

[App] Android Market 3.1.6

Heres 3.1.6 it works great on my optimus . You need to replace Vending.apk in system/app because it wont install like a standard app ;( so rename the download to Vending.apk and copy it to the system/app folder and overwrite the old version then set these perms:

Hmm, I have done this and set the permissions as described (where X = active in root explorer) - I get no connection when starting the market. Fault on my side?

Works but...
Works for me just as good (or bad) as the 3.15. But I don't see any big changes after all those minor updates, and it is still not as fast and smooth as the very old market but at least it looks nicer.
I did, now I did it a second time and let it be for a few minutes. Works now

Did your phone update to this version automatically or did you install from another source?

im going to make a update.zip for this so it runs a script to remove all traces of any other market versions.
I was an idiot....
The problem has solved. Becuse of /system/bin/Vending.odex
Works very fine now after delete that file
Solved all of my force close and performance issues with 3.1.5.
Here's a flash-able zip for anyone that would rather do it that way...
There has been some concern about the signing of this apk. I did not find this, only made it into a flashable zip.
Download at your own risk.
I have personally had zero issue with this market version and it has actually relieved all performance and force closes issues I had with previous versions
Works great on htc sensation.

Mine did as well and after I had permission problems and a notification of an outdated binary. I ran the superuser update fixer which said I was fine but I did a force fix anyways. Now it seems to be working ok.

WOW, i dont have that superuser.
ChainsDD released a new version 3.0 for Superuser a few weeks ago (now 3.0.2) after releasing a few betas. Being a system app for most ROMs, Superuser was probably set for Automatic Updating, that's why it updated itself on your phones. Besides a new GUI, it mainly added new features with the Superuser Elite app. Here is the changelog at the Superuser website http://androidsu.com/superuser/changelog/
Most of my system apps show up in red in titanium backup. This allows you to attach and detach them from the market, and do other titanium functions on them. Unfortunately superuser doesn't show up at all in titanium. Is there anyway to make it show up?

Thanks, I will give this a try one of these days...
Cheers..
these is great im gonna try now
Thanks, Ill try it out. I was about to go back to stock tango as im having a weird problem with getting 15-20 blank texts a day from "unknown" if running stock didn't fix it, I was going to change my number. I'm running Anans rom.
Ill give yours a try first. Did yo do anything to it other that sound and colors? its pretty much stock tango released?
Just those things at the time.
Been using this since my last post. So far, its the best one yet. Full unlock works great, rom is fast and stable, I never go to 1x, wifi IS works...
Funny, because I kinda stopped using Nokia Drive, and have just been using the built in, and I don't really use any other apps that are not on the market place..... So really I only have a custom rom on so I can change my colors.. hehehe..
Can wait for Verizon's new WP8 devices
I know this forum isnt active much, but how do you all like this ROM? Think Im gonna give it a try. Any known issues?

Yeah, just figured out that its not working for me now either. The ROM you're talking about, I couldnt get IS to work either. I may give it another try. If not, ill just have to go back to an older ROM that I know worked.
What exactly is your issue with IS? I am about to update so I will see if I can fix it.
