So either I don't know how to use the internet or I'm the only person with this problem (on an evo shift, of course).
Tried everything I found on every site (even on different phones).
"Device not compatible with this version" error on most apps. The apps don't even show up in the play store when I search them, I have to find a link to the store online, then I get the error.
Info:
Evo Shift
CM7.2 RC2
I'm looking for a solution before I end up wiping it in frustration.
Suggestions?
Thanks.
What version of the Play Store do you have? Have you tried installing a different verson of the Play Store. Had something similar happen with a themed version.
Try flashing the latest google apps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1311342
Play store version 3.5.19
But that was just after I tried flashing that new gapps, still nothing.
Can't find a different version of just the play store...care to throw me a link?
yeah i had this issue before on my bionic not sure why it does this but try flashing again wipe etc.. and see if it is the same issue or try uninstalling updates on applicatoins "play store" etc... sometimes that fixes the problem..
Well, wiping it and re-flashing CM is gonna be my last resort.
Ill try it tomorrow if all else fails.
Tried downgrading, and now the apps (like facebook, instagram) show up in the market, but they're still "not compatible".

Settings -> Manage applications -> Play store -> Clear data
Try to releaunch Play store.
Tried that, cleared data, cleared every cache possible, tried several different gapps .zips, my phones getting sick of it so my journey is nearing its close.
I'm thinking its something to do with the play store reading my device as something its not, but in the settings everything checks out. (htc_speedy, etc.)

Are you using any kind of market unlock software that would spoof your device from a different provider?

The android market was renamed / rebranded as the play store a while back

Is your LCD density stock? Changing lcd density often causes play store issues. If it is you can try using the market enabler app to get access to the market. If that doesn't help try editing your build prop to spoof your phone as a nexus s as that is probably the compatible with the most apps.

Yeah when I first started having this problem I saw the lcd density solution on an Evo Design forum, and I had just recently set my density to 210, so I figured that was it. Changed it back, NADA.
But I changed my info to that of a nexus S and everything is working now. Thank you!!

No problem! I ran into that when I was running newSense a while back (bad flash I believe) and didn't feel like redownloading and reflashing the rom so edited the buildprop
when you changed density back, did you reboot/ clear cache and dalvik then clear market data? If not, then that probably still could have been the issue.
Sent from my HTC Speedy using xda premium
Oh yeah I cleared every cache I could possibly clear before I did that. I tried everything. Never even knew you could change that type of info, but I did it with ROM Toolbox Pro.
Quick question, although it belongs in another section, how do you like newSense? I'm looking for something new after having CM for over a year.

Its probably the best rom on the shift. The best combination of speed and and stability. Although its probably not as fast as a pure aosp build, the difference is negligible. Drob, onelove and dread deserve major props. Its my go to rom when I'm on my college campus... as its the only place in detroit with 4G lol

I know that you said that you cleared the cache, but did you "clear data" as well? I think this is what I did last time mine acted up.
same issue here, I never use the market to look for an app updates anymore instead I tried to use App Update Notifier and it works just fine.

Used the SGS tool script to reset the market and now its working fine again. Thanks for the suggestions everyone
this happens to me all the time... idk why
Have you tried downloading a small free app from the market? You can uninstall it right after, to see if it works. Whenever I flash a new ROM and restore apps with TiBu, the market doesn't see my restored apps. But, when I download a new app, the market then recognizes my restored ones. It's worth a shot and will only take a minute.
Edit: Sorry, didn't see you found out already, you're way is probably better too. >.<

On MIUI - had it pushed to me last week. At first I thought it was a pita to use.
But... after I played with it a bit I think I like it a lot better than the old market.
The only thing I don't like is that it is painful if your not on wireless and have a slow connection.
I am not liking the update at all....

Everyone was so excited when this was first announced.
They took out the option to disable the "updates available" notification.
Also youtube and flash player don't show up under "my apps" in the market anymore. If I search them, they say installed and allow updating that way

Normally bugs don't affect every user/configuration. They would be quickly/easily fixed if they did. Just because the bug doesn't affect you doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

So if you have tried to install Wind up Knight you already know it won't install on your GS4G, I asked the developer why and he replied:
"Hi Jorge,
Do you have an HTC Desire or a Samsung Galaxy S? If so, your phone is broken and you should complain to your carrier about selling you a defective product. Those devices are unable to download any application that is larger than about 30 mb. There's nothing we can do about it from this end--it's a problem created by Samsung and HTC.
Good luck,
Chris"
So my question here is, does any one have a fix?
I believe you go to manage applications market and clear the cache and data

Ha.. Defective... psh. So what are you supposed to do, return it for the same "Defective Phone"?
Big question, are you using Data or Wifi to download?
Have you tried the app download all files? I think I read somewhere that it would allow you to download larger apps.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I have tried both data and wifi, so there's no way to bypass this? I have never seen an app in the market that takes more than 15 MB but this one is almost 50 MB.
Download app to computer copy to sdcard and install using something like root explorer

EDIT: Oh well, I thought you could download the app to your computer fromt the android market... guess not.
Anyone have any other ideas?
I am having the same exact problem. I am trying to download a 31 mb file. It will not download. 20 mb files are fine. WTH?
I have tried all the app cache and data refreshes mentioned.
This is lame.
But, the suggestion to download to PC and load onto sd card is a great suggestion. Thanks for that. I hadn't thought of that.

I think raver posted a fix for this for froyo.
Those big files are usually games and if you search you can often find the apk available for download somewhere other than the market. I did that with this sword fighting game but the game turned out not to be worth much.
It could be the new market...
I had this issue a while back on my vibrant and now again with Wind Up knight on my GS4G
I believe its the new market causing the issue.
When I uninstalled the updates of Market 3.1.5 and rolled back to 2.12 on my GS4G, Wind up knights Downloaded and installed no problem. My GS4G is rooted with Stock ROM.
My Vibrant is on Cyanogen Mod 7 with Market 3.1.5, unfortunately version 2.12 is not on the ROM so I can not roll back and install this Game.
I don't think its entirely a device issue. There must be something about the hardware that the Market Software just doesn't agree with.
Any other ideas?
I saw that on SGS I9000, custom ROMs fixed it by changing the download temp file size. Maybe we van do the same on SGS 4G...

I have the same problem using the Android Market, but if it's a problem with the phone, why can I DL Peggle which is 74.1MB using the Amazon Market app? I've had no problems at all DL'ing huge files using Amazons Android Market. It wasn't until I heard about a game that was only on the Android Market that I ran it this problem.
I've also read that to fix this all you have to do is roll back to an older version of the Market. The updates have messed it up somehow.
the problem is not the device...
the issue comes with the market sets a cache limit ...
eg cache limit is x size apk is y size if below x limit download if beyond x limit deny
the reason the trick i posted in froyo worked before the new market is it deleted out the temp file folders and recreated tehm without the restriction imposed...
now its handled by the apk itself..
also note working on removing it from the market ;P cause honestly its annoying as hell!!!
Definitely the Market
Its definitely an issue with the new Market 3.x
And it is cache related, but should not be something that we have to worry about fixing.
I found the issue on Google code on the Open Handset Alliance Project. The bug is open, and it would be great for everyone that has this issue to click the star so that the issue can become more important and hopefully be fixed for the next update to Market.

Yeah. Been seeing that on and off for several days now. One of 2 different error messages and a refusal to update... Definitely not ICS related since I haven't taken the plunge yet. Some thought it was leak related because the timing the same, but I can confirm that it is happening on stock from time to time too, so probably just coincidental timing.
(think I may have to go ahead and flash something ICS after work now that there are a few choices with most of the bugs squashed)

I can say I had some troubles with the play store lately which caused app to not show up, all day I tried every method to get all the apps to show up.
It all started after I flashed mhx superlite 3.1 .
Eventually I downloaded the stock build.prop and replaced it with my own, that pretty much solved all the issues.
sounds like a bad update, clearing data and maybe even uninstalling the update and allowing it to re-install on wifi could fix it.
Just got my phone today, and apparently the sticker on it that said updated meant that there is no local search due to... Lawsuits? Whatever.
I hate apple now.
Anyhow I've Googled it and can't find how to get this back.
Just articles talking about how it was removed.
Is there a way? Do I flash gapps from cwm recovery?

Does that apply to all phones they make now? I thought it was just the Nexus for a particular period. Now that you mention it though I just got mine today, same sticker and same results. This phone is so loaded and my first Android cell so I feel sorta lost and could be missing a setting.

I am not certain, but from the out of the box get go I was not able to bring any local apps up.
Not even settings, which was just asinine considering I am unfamiliar with touchwiz, and with ICS coming from GB... so I needed to find the settings and did not want to page through the apps.
None of that works, you can only search google on the internet, nothing else.
Same here, but I was wondering if it's a limitation of TouchWiz this is a crazy heavy skin. I'm coming from iPhone so I'm happily lost, I could have missed the setting.
Maybe someone can help me out, I'm running no sympathy VRALG1 however I pulled the googlequicksearchbox.apk(1.4.1.338691) from the nosymapthy VRALF2 , I can install it and my local search works great, until I reboot and then it doesn't work and the installed version of googlequicksearchbox.apk is back to version 1.4.1.396604. How do I stop it from upgrading or changing?
