[Q] what version of Adobe flash should I be running?

I am running Vegan 5.1.1 and tried to install 10.2 this afternoon from the market but it said my device wouldn't support it....is that because it's rooted? What do I need to do to fix that?
Here is my reason for asking....I have a fantasy baseball draft tomorrow the draft tool requires the most up to date browser and flash player....it just spins and never loads up in standard browser or skyfire.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.

10.2 from the Market should work fine for you. You will only need the hacked version if you use HULU. But sites like Fox Television will work fine with the regular one. You might want to also download AdFree from the market if you want to skip the ads.

that's what I thought but how do I get it since the market wont let me?

running VEGAN 5.1 and flash 10.2 try going to market on computer and set up download.

I feel like a dolt for not getting this....when I get into the market via the web version it recognizes my two devices and says neither is supported? Even via PC, so how would I get it to move it to my device?
I can't even find it at via the market app

I am a dolt....I wasn't running 5.1.1 just 5.1 I have now done the update...lets see what happen now.
update...
I can no longer connect to any wireless....it just endlessly scans?

Have you tried to forget the connection and then reconnect to it?

have you done the "Market Fix" on your tablet. The web market and the market app on your device point to the same pool of apps. If you can't see it on your device's market app then you can't push it to your tablet from the web.
Adobe Flash Player 10.2 should install from your tablets Market app. If you aren't see it, do the Market Fix.

You need to perform market fix. Takes all of 50 seconds. Read op of this thread.

Try the android app section of freewarelovers.com. I had the same problem of my gtablet not showing up in the android market properly, but this did the trick.

Google has some funky rules about what app is available to a device that connects to the market. Your mileage will vary.
Every time I flashed a rom this past week, I was only able to see flash player BEFORE doing the market fix. After doing the market fix, I saw a bunch of other apps, but no flash player.
So check both before and after doing the market fix.

thanks everybody....once I actually performed the 5.1.1 update my problems began to get worse and then much , much better.
I checked into a hotel yesterday with the family that had an unsecured wifi connection and it connected immediately. From there I re-installed my apps INCLUDING 10.2 and other Tegrazone apps I couldn't get before running 5.1.1
Got hom tonight, still can't connect to my secure wifi router but I am running a test taking the security off to see if that solves the local problem

[Q] Android Market problems- false "incompatible device"

I am running cyanogenmod 7.1 with the current nightly build. Everything was working great with the android market until today when all of a sudden a good amount of my apps are coming up as being incompatible with my device even though they are already installed. I thought it could be because my apps were restored with titanium, but even new apps and ones i uninstalled and re-installed are still incompatible. Most of the apps seem to be google oriented, but not all are by google and pandora isn't compatible either, however I was able to download pandora through the amazon app store. I've read about changing the dpi but i'm not sure what that is or how to do it.. Ive also cleared the market data and cache but that still did not work. Please advise

SOLVED!
Okay the solution I've found was that graphic intensive apps or more mainstream apps have strict display density parameters, so if your phone doesn't meet the requirements then they won't install. After installing a new ROM, the LCD density is sometimes set differently, so all you need to do is look up what the default LCD density setting was and reset it back to that number. You can search for "lcd density" on the market to change the number or use the built in tool in ROM Toolbox.

Android Market error package not signed correctly

Hey does anyone in here know what the pRoblem is with some of the apps in the market getting the package not signed correctly error? It happens if i had a previously themed version of that app. I have Completely removed the old version from my phone, cleared market data also, and still the market will not let me download it. I even wiped my phone and tried a different ROM and still no dice. I flashed the old school market from froyo and everything was good. Why is this a problem with the newer markets? Fyi i don't want to use the old market i want the new one to work right. Any ideas? Or reasons why it's like this?

Nope. note for an example, i have been running Google music i got from the market for a while. I decided to run a themed version cause i wanted black. Well now i want the original back and the market well not let me download it. I don't even have the themed version on my device. i sbf'd and the market still will not let me download it. I have a couple apps like that. I'll never run a themed app again if it means i can never run the normal one again.

[Q] store apps device compatibility

I have an r800x which I cant seem to download some simple apps that shouldent have issues. very simple games like tiny tower can be installed via .apk but when searched in play store it comes up with an error. This is just one example. The "Your device isn't compatible with this version." on store is annoying when I have to go find the apk from somewhere else..
I've read about lcd density changers but I don't think its changed. I also unlocked bootloader and flashed custom kernel with custom rom a week previous to this disappearing apps in store problem. Also a friend is having same problem with his locked/rooted r800a.
In short I want to see ALL apps in the play store for every device regardless of compatibility or a way to remove the error.

Here are a couple things you can do:
-Try the app ChainFire3D. It is free but there is also a paid version which may help you more. It has an option to attempt to patch the market to show apps that may not appear for your device (again, not sure if the free version has this, but worth a shot).
-You can also try to go to Settings>Apps>All apps, then look for Google Play and wipe the cache; then try to search for apps. On another note, I once had this same exact problem. It was due me changing my screen density. I changed it back to 240, wiped Google Play data, then it worked beautifully.
- If you still have an issue, try getting an app that will allow you to change your density and try the level 240 (I think it is the same on all devices). Then wipe Play's data and try.

chainfire3d was one of the ones not compatable so I couldent download it easy from market or I would have tryed it. thx tho
I used an lcd density changer pro app to goto the 240 and that seemed to fix the problems. For some reason it was on 210. ty.

Apps incompatible

Since upgradung to the leaked ics, I noticed hbo go is not in the google play store. I went to the hbogo website and clicked the link to download it in the google store. It pulls up but says its incompatible with my device. Is there an alternate way I can download this
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

download the apk from the web

Don't you have to modify something else in order to get that to work? I thought I read something about a build.prop file or something..

That would be good to know , since installing the ICS leak I've been having a lot of issues installing apps such as Groupon,Living Social , Yahoo Mail that would all show as incompatible with device

Groupon and Living Social both work on mine, although I'm using the Stock Revamped ROM. As far as Groupon goes, did you do a backup and then restore in Titanium Backup? If you do that Groupon doesn't launch. If you delete it and then redownload it via Google Play it should work fine.

I'm using Mod1411's NexusMod ICS with LCD Density set to 200. I thought it was the LCD Density at first but it wouldn't work even if I set it back to 240. I searched for Groupon first on Google Play but couldn't find it. Going to the direct Google Play link it will show me as incompatible

Even after setting density back, you have to clear google play data and may have to go to recovery and wipe caches and reboot.

Can anyone speak to the HBO (No) Go app issue? Has anyone been able to get this running on their phone? I'd like to get that back up and running.

Well my i heart radio app was working fine until they released 4.2.1 version for it, now I get that my device is not supported.
Update, found the app on the Amazon app store and it installed and works fine.
to the OP, try that.

I tried with HBO Go and it isn't working. Won't even come up when I search for it.

I'm using the stock leak (UCLD2) and I don't have any issues searching for groupon on the phone in the market.

Good , hopefully when MOD1411 get a chance to put out the new ROM it would work fine.

Just loaded the new AOKP and had a few issues with app incompatibility, couldn't get SwiftKey and others to install... I tried all the usual suspects - LCD Density, reboot, clear store data, but two tips I haven't seen anywhere else that both worked for me:
- Manage Apps, Google Play Store, 'Uninstall Updates'
- Install from browser instead of Play Store on device
Hope this helps someone!
