recently some apps do not have a download button in the market but others do. ive uninstalled the update to market hoping that would do something but no avail. and ideas?
try clearing data and cache.
can you still download these apps from market.android.com? are these apps compatible with your phone?

im not entirly sure what wiping data encompasses. i have wiped cache, same problem, and unless facebook suddenly dropped 2.3 for support, my phone can support it. ive had it installed before.
update: i tryed installing facebook from the site, it says its unsupported. i havent changed roms since last time i installed it. :/
I have the same thing, I cleaned market cache but that did not work.
I tried to install Goweather, I had it installed via a APK file I downloaded.
And found that there was a Update but in the market the Update did not showup. I was using 1.9.8 and in the markted there now is version 1.9.9
1.9.9 showed up as installed (not so because I have 1.9.8) So I uninstalled 1.9.8 and wanted to install 1.9.9 But no download button.
So I tried to install it via Web market and there it says device not supported..
Weird..
I have the same problem, it says that my device is unsupported.
Have the problem since I downgraded from cm7 to cm6 on my milestone.
Clearing cache and app-data didn't help
I had a nandroid and could extract many apps that market says are unsupported and all of them work.
Sounds like the version your running isn't compatible with the app. Can you list a couple of the apps that you get the download link and a couple apps where you don't?

primarily maps and facebook to not work. its a growing suspission that its my lcd density variable in my build.prop that i changed to make smaller on my screen. i verified that the rest of the file is the same.
chompsms as well doesnt but it seems that many of the games work
another update, build.prop doesnt seem to be affecting it
Have you tried APbrain or another pseudo market. APBrain has a instant downloader. Just sayin.
.... that doesn't seem to work for anybody
I've got absolutely no clue what's causing this but the release notes of the most recent CM7 version for my Optimus One P500 mentioned that this has been fixed. I'm not sure if this is specific to the P500 version, but if it isn't, then upgrading to the most recent CM7 version might help. In any case, looking through the commit log should tell you what the fix actually was and allow you to apply it to your version.
truthfully ide like to stick with google market. as much as fixing the phone and such so the check can go through, its moreso fixing symptoms than the problem(a descussion for another day)
ive been using cm7 nightly 144 for a while now. im not entirely sure if the new market is the problem or the nihtly. anyone else have any details on it?
Sometimes it happens if DPI is changed.
Transmitted from a Galaxy far far away via XDA telepathy.
Screen resolution was the culprit for me. Changed to default, clear market data/cache, go to market, download, change resolution back. Stock, rooted rom, nexus s 4g.
I had that problem too on my tattoo, i just backup only market (NO Data app) with titanium then wiped cache, and restored and it work again.

LCDDensity for root. In the market. Must have root, obviously.
I have heard about the market app not working for some, have you tried installing an older version of the market?

hi i have ICS RC7.4 installed with a VKL1 modem flash to be used on tmobile.
my problem is that the google voice recognition keeps showing me the tutorial/welcome screen instead of going directly to the voice input screen which means i have to press the microphone button before i can talk ..ohh how frustrating. i checked the settings but there is no option do disable the welcome screen. interestingly enough this behavior seems random sometimes the tutorial screen comes up sometimes it just works like it should.
Is anyone else experiences this or knows how to fix ?
thx - phil
If you are running a ROM then you should ask your dev to include GV as sys apk
Or drag the Google voice apk to the system folder before you flash it and not bother the dev with something you can do yourself.

thx for the replies.
is there a way todo this without flashing? or can i just "re flash" my ICS over the current one with the apk in the system folder without loosing any settings/data.
litte noobish here sorry....i made the swap from iphone to droid like 4 days ago. so far i have a custom rom, flashed modem, rooted and unlocked.... its a steep learning curve and im loving it!
There's a way to do it without wiping but it's complicated and youbhave to fix permission and stuff. I think if your custom rom has a no wipe update you could put it in that one and flash that way. Always backup before modifying.

or you could just copy and past the file from your /data/app folder to /system/app fix permissions and reboot. (you might get fcs as you do this if so reboot then fix permissions and reboot again)
I have tried multiple play store fixes from around the web and seemed to receive multiple force closes and various other issues when trying to launch Google play and Google apps. So, I decided to take the time to actually fix the files for the rom that I am currently using. Therefore, if you are someone who modified the DPI of your phone manually, happens to be running the Alpha for CM9 (or are willing to try with other roms) you can download the Vending.apk and GoogleServicesFramework.apk from this thread here and see if it helps you too. I should mention that you have to Clear data on the Google Play Store after replacing the files so it can again work properly.
I know many people are going to just say "why didn't you just download LCDModderPro, since it has the market fix?" Simple answer, because I wanted to do it myself. That is one of the great things about Android, it's open source and you can modify things to meet your needs. So why did I post this if I just wanted to do it myself? Well, once it was done I figured I might as well share... below are the links if anyone finds it to be useful.

I am requesting that only people more experienced try this one ^^ out. I am trying something different this time around and I only actually edited a couple of lines, literally one in both the GoogleServicesFramework.apk and one in Phonesky.apk. It has been working for me for three days now, if you have an issue or it fails to work let me know.
Don't forget to clear data for the Google Play store after installing

Thank you for sharing! I personally used LCD Modder Pro, but it's good to know another way to get it done!! Thanks again!
Good work. there is option if we dont wanna use lcd modder pro....
Thanks, works great. I like the fact that I can get Google Play working without the use of an extra application. I'll hope you keep this updated.

Google Play Version 3.5.19
I downloaded and installed the newest Google Play store version (3.5.19) and it appears that google has changed the display metrics from DPI to Height/Width. I am waiting to see if the old problem of apps becoming unsupported reoccur with the new version. As of now, after clearing data and toying with the DPI some more, I still have access to all my downloaded apps and the error hasn't occurred. I will update if it proves necessary...

I can confirm this. Just installed 3.5.19 running 200dpi. Cleared data and rebooted. New version shows all my apps where before "incompatible" apps would not appear. Finally done with this mod

Yup. That is what I am seeing here as well. There should be a need to update the original post/files then. If people still want to use 3.5.16 until it is officially pushed to our phones then this will help, otherwise download 3.5.19 and you shouldn't have to worry about your DPI... as far as I can tell anyway.
I wish I would have found this before buying the LCD Density Modder Pro
Lol
Thanks for the hard work and the alternative approach to the app on the market! And thanks for the heads up about the new market

After flashing and trying different roms for a bit, I realized that Market 3.5.19 ultimately ended up having the same issues. I went ahead and updated the APK and updated the OP with the new link for the download. It is a CWM zip, don't forget to clear data after the install.
I have only tested this on CM9 and AOKP roms, it should still work on others… but I thought I should put it out there that I have only personally tested it on those two roms.

Yeah i can confirm this. 3.5.19 seemed to work for one day or so. But what ended up happening was that the apps just wouldn't show up at all. I normally use dropbox to test it but that always worked on this new market. Dolphin browser, Draw something, app quarantine wouldn't show up in a search. My phone is running sky ics 4.0.3, dpi 180.
EDIT: omg thank you! You are awesome! Thank you for doing this! You are faster with updates then LCD Density Modder pro, they are lagging it with updates. He is still running 3.5.15, amazing! You rock!
---------- Post added at 09:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 PM ----------
I just flashed the 3.5.19 CWM flashable zip you made and it worked great! As soon as i rebooted clear the data and amazing. I cant thank you enough! Thank you
If we wanted to do it our selfs, could we extract your zip and take the files? Just wandering for future references.
Just wondering what dpi are you guys using? I tried toying with dpi values on atrix, wanted to get a reference of what the range to look for the sweet spot on the skyrocket
Also i just tried flashing and could not even make it to the boot animation. I'm running the sky ice off the latest leak.
Admittedly i wasn't sure if i was to change the DPI first, reboot, and the flash, or flash clear data then change DPI. I'm back to a nandroid backup, if someone could shed light on this it would be of great help.
Thank you

I think, at least I found, when doing the math that the native DPI of the phone should be 207.32 and CM9/AOKP tends not to like DPI being set on an odd number, so 208 is what I have settled on. Although, as Voiid mentions he is running 180 and elitrix mentions 200, just find something that works for you!
As for your issue, I haven't been able to replicate it on my phone. You didn't clear the cache/d-cache in CWM after install did you? I have heard there are times when ICS has issues after doing so... if you did that it could be your problem. As for the proper way to do things, well, I have flashed this at many different times with different roms. I recommend clearing data in apps manager after the flash though, that way it has to resend the DPI information mimicking a first boot or launch of the Google Play store. Try downloading the files them selves, extracting them and manually copying them into the /system/apps folder in something like root explorer. Don't forget to change permissions to rw-r-r.
Voiid - I have uploaded the files in non-cwm flashable format so you can just have the modded files and the link is in the OP. However, for future reference, yes you can just extract the files from the app folder in the CWM zip and use them moving forward as updates come along.
Thanks for the reply Plague. The problem i am having seems to be with dpi modder app. I tried changing the dpi to 200, 180 and 210 and all of them sent me into a bootloop (not actually sure if it was a bootloop because the phone never got passed the samsung logo, i'm assuming it was still on). Either way i resolved the issue by using rom toolbox and changing the dpi to 200. Then i flashed the modded play store and its working great. Thank fully i am crazy about having nandroid backups so i didn't loose anything.

Yeah I had this issue too! Changing the dpi with LCD Modder Pro caused my phone to not boot too. I am not sure why though some apps that change dpi do that on this phone. On my old phone, the HTC aria, LCD modder worked. So idk. I just use root explorer and go to /system/ open build.prop as a text (make sure the folder is writeable) and change the dpi from within that my self. The line says
ro.sf.lcd_density=240
Its like in the center of the file.
You can change that number to whatever just make sure its a feasible number.
And then save it and reboot.
But you said rom tool box works so thanks for the heads up!

DETAILS;
Mahdi ROM release 9/03, twrp, bacon latest AK Kernel
Okay after a week of headache's here and there, it seems im never satisfied with this stupid but godly phone.
I have a few things left to do;
1. Manually enable Disable HW overlays; This setting resets everytime i reboot; Can someone post what to use and what to edit in the build.prop file so this stays the same.
2. Im resetting synapse and starting with the default settings in AK's kernel. - I need 2 setups or just 1 that can be used for performance and great battery life. essentially i want my phone to use power only when needed, i will play with MAX and MIN cpu frequency as needed, but the other settings i have no clue what to set. I want to phone to react quick, playing games etc.
3. Can you guys list any main or important tweaks/settings i should use, very new to intelli/hotplug/mpdecision/autosmp dont really know what they do.
4. "Trust me and back up that imei folder.. The important thing is that your phone works, no headaches and now that the hard part is over, you can flash as you'd like, but I would still suggest using those apps and now that you're rooted, titanium backup.. and make a nandroid before you attempt any new flashes.. " an XDA member suggest i do a IMEI folder backup, this is just a copy paste ? If so where is this located ?
Update to latest mahdi rom and you won't need to disable hw overlays

Going to flash this, love your work on layers. I'm sure I'm gonna enjoy this!
Edit: It booted, with a little bit of nostalgia, lollipop boot animation with a twist. nice! However it went straight into "android is optimizing" even after a clean flash. Will report back after I've played a little.

Did you make sure to wipe your caches? Coming from the factory image, you should mount your system in twrp, wipe it, wipe dalvik and dalik-caches and most likely data

I remove old aosp apps since most people replace them with Google apps or equivalent, that includes aosp browser, MMS, and a few others which is pretty standard in aosp ROMs since the apps still look like ics (I kept gallery because quickpic was bought out)
