i got this this morning at CVS for 79.99 with my employee discount, i thought for that price it would be worth trying out...thanks for this
thank you for this release I just bought one today and had to get it rooted ASAP lol. Even the market works. Thank you for the awesome release.
can you make a striped down version or better yet how are you removing those apps for example how do you get rid of the book club it keeps saying uninstall not sucessfull also i downloaded applanet 2.7.6 and it wont fully download stuff it will begin it and then stop and try to install a parshal package then saying theres a problem parsing the package
Just bought one this morning, cant wait to install this, but the drop box account says This account's public links are generating too much traffic and have been temporarily disabled, anyone able to mirror "CMP-738a-update-2011-01-26-rls4.img" Thanks!
Agreed, need alternate download sites plz!
Sorry Guys, Didn't expect that much traffic - DropBox temporarily suspended the account. Looking for a new home - will be done by tonight.
Shad
Why not try multiupload which sends it to 7 different hosters for instant mirroring? I see you already have release 5 being tested which rumor has it allows adb access. I won't ask for when you expect to release but am curious how smoothly the tests are going?
mirror for the img
hey heres a mirror for CMP-738a-update-2011-01-26-rls4.img
megaupload.com/?d=RV84C5SC
i also have rls3 if any one wants me to upload that one so how about the help on my post lol

I literally went down the list and wiped data/cache for all the apps cause checkin service, download manager....anything with google in it and gmail were not doing it for me..but after wiping all of them and doing a reboot it finally worked for me and I've installed a dozen things since then like soundhound(recognize song app), palringo(instant messenger...does voice chat walkie talkie style), google voice
(free sms from tablet)....miren browser (in my opinion the best phone browser and ironically originally a chinese browser ported to english.) etc...be interested to see what yall consider must have tablet apps.
Bargaincell has a mini hdmi 6 foot cable as the daily special for $3.99 shipped @ http://www.bargaincell.com/bargaincell_daily_deal.html
cache
I had the same issue. It took a few cache wipes and reboots but it finally worked. Neat little gadget but it does have some draw backs, for it's price point not a terrible buy. Would like to see Honeycomb on it but not sure the CPU could handle it. Tried to find an overclocking app but none seem to recognize this chip.
Market worksss!! Can this be used to make calls via sipdroid?? GV?
Fantastic work...I grab one of these today at CVS for $100 just to play around with it. As my evo is my daily driver...got rooted with no issues. Having a bit of problems with the market but I am troubleshooting this via posts in this thread and on slate droid. Thanks for the great work!

1) It's broken, check the website.
2) It's warez. Don't even mention it here or you WILL get banned.
New Android Market (3.0.26)
That’s right, guys. Just download from your phone’s browser and install like a normal app. It’s currently working great on my Evo 3D although I’m not sure if this will work on phone’s equipped with Android 2.1 and lower (per Google) but I don’t think that will stop you from trying, right? Let us know if it works for you! Enjoy!
Oh — and if the new Market ISN’T your cup of tea or starts to act a little wonky, you can always go back to the old Market following these simple steps:
Go into your phone’s Settings
Select “Manage Applications”
Select the “All” tab at the top
Scroll down to Market app and select it
Select “Uninstall Updates”
Now have your old Market back!

This is the same market that came out like last week. Got it the, working on my cm7 glacier
There are so many threads about this new market lol not just in here but all over

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

Look at the link I posted above Mate...
Hi all, i'd like to introduce my free app Market Unlocker to you.
It's similar to MarketEnabler which let you access paid apps in Android Market, but add funny functions as
1. Support Android Market 3.4
2. Support download & buy paid app in Amazon Appstore outside USA.
As you might have known, android market and amazone appstore will stop you from downloading and tell you that it's not supported in your region. Why? Because the server's checking your ip address countries as well as your provider. For amazon users registered with us credit card and billing address, it's frustrated when you're not in usa.
Market Unlocker will force visiting Market and Appstore via a proxy, that makes traffic looks like from USA. Unlimited access any more.
Find out more details in Android Market by search "Market Unlocker". I also attached an apk, but check out from android market is still recommended.
Believe it will help you.
Looks promising. It is a [ROOT required + Acquire IMEI] app.
But I cannot find a working US proxy yet to test its function (download apps from Amazon). What a pity.
getting a working USA proxy is hard
Pick up where to get working proxy in Q&A of Android market app descriptions. Google also...
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Works great on my SGS2.
However, I tried it on the alpha ICS roms. (from samsung). It could not get su access and force closed. Might be about my setup though.
Does not work on CM9 alphas too.
Is it an ICS problem?
Hmm tried on nook color with cm9 preview and the market change works, yet the proxy setting says "invalid ip address or port number"
Thanks, i will try
Question

Reboot and clear market data
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App
Hi, thanks for your work.
Currently I try to download the GMail App, because the App isn't in the german Market.
I was able to fake the provider to Verizon USA and configured a proxy I found in the web. But the GMail App isn't available yet.
What went wrong?
The proxy??
could not make it work.
I bought the Pro version, got a proxy configured automatically and managed managed to buy and install fifa12 from the US market using these steps:
1. Turn on flight mode
2. Enable Market Unlocker and auto unlock
3. Got to system Setting => Applications => Manage applications => All => Market, and click “Clear data”
4. Reboot phone
5. Turn on Wifi/3G
6. Wait google service sync-up completed or refresh in Gmail.
7. Open Market Unlocker, enable proxy
8. Open Google Play. Buy your apps.
Turn off flight mode.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My question is this, if the device is rebooted with proxy off or flight mode is enabled and disabled, do we still need to do the above steps to be able to buy apps from the US market?
works good on my sgs
is it just me or does this app no longer work ?
for example enable it then use with or without proxy and i still can't download or use google wallet, whereas before i could.
Something has changed...

You could just turn off automatic updates, and update when you're on wifi. Plus, large apps have the option to download over wifi only and it defaults on.
