That's the thing! I go into "games" I don't see anything that says play.
When I try to install now from Marketplace within the phone, I get "Can't get this info right now. Check back in a little while".

You have to perform the registry hack and whatnot to get such working properly. Go search it up, you'll find some nice guides on how to.

limited downloads from opnmarket

hi ive been using opn market to downloads a few apps,some of the apps work and some dont? it says its downloading but nothing appears on my phone when it works it gives me the option to store to my card or device when it doesnt it just says dowloading?? is this because the phone wont suport it ?
I've already seen some "broken" apps in opnmarket - The app is there in the list, but apparently the .cab file doesn't exist on their servers anymore, so ith either gives a connection error or simply does nothing when trying to download.

- numpty physics: download works but reviews say doesn't work on HD2
- shoot em up: reviews say download is broken/can't download
- gsoundbox: works for me
- mobile gamertag: download seems to work, haven't tried installing
Click on download should start download, then once completed click on install, there it asks where you want to install
Always read reviews, there's often compatibility info
Make sure you have enough free ROM, as the installers download to the main memory (they self-delete after install).
ok mate thanks so any ideas?? it says its downloading but when i come to check theres nothing downloaded? it doesnt even ask if i want to store it to my card or device
Where do you "come to check"?
You click download, wait until it finishes, then click install.
I might get it - while it's downloading do NOT click "back" to go and see other stuff, this cancels download. You need to wait on the page until it has finished.

yes i click install it counts up on the % meter then nothing appears either on my device files or card i always wait until it says 100% then i click back
Please get things straight.
The button says "Download". You click on that, then the percentage goes to 100%. Now the button turns into "Install". You click that, it opens the CAB and asks you where you want to install.

hi sorry it says download when i press it the meter counts up to 100% so it looks like its downloading when its finished nothing happens it doesnt ask me where id like to store the cab file nothing hapens
OK. Well something screws up indeed, at 100% the button should turn into "install".
You should try to uninstall opnmarket, download and reinstall. You probably have an old/broken version.
For the record the downloaded cabs are in \Program Files\OpnMarket\Cache.
How much free ROM do you have?

Did I ask twice. If you're near full, maybe the bigger programs fail downloading because there's just not enough space.

marketplace loses position on back

When browsing the marketplace, installing an app and then going back my scrolled position in the marketplace is lost. This is very frstrating and makes browsing and installing from the marketplace a pain.
Am I missing something?
Cheers, John
Same here. Another issue: I can search and find apps to install (for instance "Root Explorer" that I wanted to use to replace wpa_supplicant) but when I click the link to view the details and install it, I get a dialog that says the detailed view can't be found. If I click OK, it goes back to the search results. If I instead click back, I can read the detailed view, but clicking "Install" results in it telling me the application can't be found. Looks like Google is blocking the app.
+1 same problem here! (Using the tablet outdoors and I must say the feeling is great but....the screen is awful!!!! I can see my every detail reflected in the screen ...lol)
By the way is there no way to comment or rate an app from the market app???
Is there perhaps a way of installing the gingerbread marketplace app?

I've been having the same problem today. Lots of Apps in the market seem to be giving this response but if you try and see the details of and install a featured app then there's no problem. I think the Android Market may be having a few issues today. Try using the Android Market website instead, worked for me.
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App
I'll give that a go, thanks
yeah I noticed the same thing
I would also like to know where to rate and comment on apps
I hate it loses position on back. I like to browse through the app list to what is available for us honeycomb users but the fact that it goes back to the start makes this a pain in the *ss.
i agree, this is horrible, especially when browsing a long list. The marketplace is pretty average all round really.
Would it be too much to ask for a dedicated tablet section?
Just chiming in agreeing that this is a real pita.
Another +1 for the position loss on back being a pain in the ass, especially if you've just scrolled through 400 or so apps only to have to scroll through them again.
+1 here as well. I'd also love to see a section in the market just for the newest apps. I still can't figure out how to comment or rate anything there either. Some of the stuff I have tried and had to just uninstall I would love to be able to comment on. Any suggestions?
I use the online site
Regarding rating apps, here's what I've found:
Menu + Purchase History
Click the name - pick to open with browser
Rate it from the browser.
Yeah, it sucks. Honeycomb fail.
+1 on losing position in the marketplace when going back to it from an app page - very frustrating. I've also had numerous occasions when an app wouldn't properly download or install - the animated bar would continue but no notifications would show up and/or the install would fail leading to the animated bar on the app page continuing to animate but no progress. Going back then finding the app again then going into the app page and clicking install again seems to be the only way to kick start it.

[Q] [Android Market]How desactive notification for one or more application

I know we can desactive notifications for all update in Android Market
But me I want desactive for only one, because I want keep my version and not new version... ;-)
Why ? Because I don't want nofications all days for one application where I don't want new version...
Any suggestions ????
I assume with desactive, you mean deactivate.
Try open market/ my apps, then settings right upper corner.
There is a "Notify about app updates" option, i guess you want to UNcheck it.

You could try backing it up with Titanium Backup, then uninstall through the Market and restore the backup? Should break the market link.
You can do this with Titanium Backup by pressing long on the app in the list.
In the appearing menu select Detach from Market... that's it.
TB just rocks so hard it's ridiculous; changed my times to reinstall after a flash to minutes instead of hours

I have the same problem with the app that didn't came through (ran out of money on my card). Now I can't purchase it and can't download it. I feel like I'm in purgatory. =)
Sadly I'll have to resort to shady sources for the app if google doesn't fix this mess soon.

What exactly did you do? Perhaps this is a Pro feature?
Have a look at the wiki (last paragraph): Titanium Backup Wiki - 7. Manage Applications

Relaunch, open at the apps page

Hi
Sure there must be a way to do this but cant find it, is there a way to get relaunch to open up straight at the apps page?
Thanks

get Google now and google now on tap back

Just wondering if there is a way to get Google now on tap back on Google assistant Roms. Seems like they all have Google assistant now. I kind of liked GN on tap. Googling didn't come up with any answers.
Never mind I figured it out.
How'd you do it?
Edit build.prop, change ro.opa.eligible_device to false

My Google app has updated, and now this doesn't work. Anyone know of any other way to switch off assistant and get the search bar back on long press of home?
I am really not interested in talking to my phone, or having it talk to me!

Hello...
Maybe I have a workaround. Go in Google play. Since your Google app updated itself, you have auto update apps in settings... Open Google app in "my apps and games" , click on the 3 dot menu on the top right corner and deselect "auto update" (see screenshot attached)
After that, you can go in: settings > apps > Google app >
Here you can tap on disable. Click "disable app" and on the second prompt "ok". It will reinitialize the app to the factory version.
Finally, you can go on https://apkmirror.com : http://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=Google+app
And download an older Google app version of your choice. You need to enable "unknown source" in settings > security to be able to install it... :good:
Good luck...
People doing this and i can't even get assistant officially​ in the uk

I'm in the UK.. Got it last week. Have been trying ever since to get rid of it!
Short of rolling back the Google app version, the best I've found is using this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dynamicg.homebuttonlauncher

Hey,
This is likely the only way to do it properly. Let us know if you find a way without installing third party app.
Good luck...
