Anyone Figured out how to update Market on A7 with DexterMod - A7 General

Has anyone found a way to update the Market on the A7 with Dexter's 1.1 Mod?
I tried replacing the Vending.apk via ADB over wireless, but it did not work. (said install failed - update incompatible) I've also tried renaming and copying the vending.apk manually to the system\app. It let me do that, but still no joy.
My wife's Nook Color has a much cooler looking Market, and it will scroll forever through apps and games. It seems that the market on the A7 doesn't scroll at all hardly. Anyone else having this issue?

I have tried....
I was following the instructions from Dexter in the developer's section. I was able to get it loaded one time, but the first application I downloaded, I ended up in a Force Close error. I checked the permissions and they were fine. I do not have enough posts to post at the original spot to let them know my results .
I spent a couple hours on it trying a variety of things (from the forums) with no luck. Hopefully Dexter will put out a new update and include the new market.
I was able to figure out how to update Facebook app and some others with no problem, but this seems to be different.

Try pportrait view. I have that problem with mod 1.0c, as I have not installed mod 1.1
Portrait view scrolls fine with my setup, landscape doesn't.

I can't believe that the fix is that simple. So, if you have the problem of the market results not scrolling down, switch to landscape, scroll (it should scroll further), the you can go back to portrait mode and keep scrolling...crazy. Thanks!

[Troubleshoot Discussion] all Android Market problems here!

i am coming across from a rooted G1, i had about 160 apps i have managed to get most restored with mybackpro but have had market issues since i first signed in.
Apps when downloading continue to show as downloading even after they are installed, is this just a syncing delay, I know I had this with my G1 at times when switching between roms and it usually fixed it self after a few days.
If this is the case is there anything I can do to try and fix this myself, its very annoying as the whole market is app is slow.
Error opening market.
Hi,
The Internet browser on my Galaxy S I9000 opens all web pages on both, GPRS and WiFi networks. However, the following applications give me errors-
1. Market - "Server unavailable. Please try again later". For both, GPRS and WiFi networks
2. Talk - It simply shuts down without showing any dialog box on both networks.
3. Maps, Gmail, Mail, Samsung Apps - Works only on WiFi and not GPRS
I do not have a 3G network in my region yet.
Since market doesn't open; I can not download anything.
Kindly guide me with this. I am more concerned about [1] and [2].
Thanks !

A lot of them do, some mess up but devs are usually fast in tweaking the app to work with froyo
Upgraded to JM2 and now certain market apps missing
Hi, i'm pretty sure i'm in the right section, anyway, I upgraded to firmware JM2 and now there seems to be the odd app missing in market, not specifically paid ones.
For example myplayer is not there, is there a fix available for this or has the app just dissapeared(could anyone verify?).
Many Thanks

2) After that - when i open market again - it will show title bar "Android Market Terms of Service " with blank white screen
3) Then it start to blinks every 5 seconds but keep showing white screen and title bar <like the screen wiping from left to right>

I also cannot use mobile browser
-> when I try to open "Internet" the browser start to load then close immediately

Do a reflash, and also if possible try to format both your internal and external sd card as well. Hope this works.

Market Problem
Hey,
i can find all apps on Market but can't download any of them.
If i press install it says in German: "Download wird gestartet..." means more or less in english:"Download starting..." it gets stuck on this message.
I used JM2 and OneClick LagFix 2.0 market wasn't working. so i decided to reflash and don't use oneclick lagfix, but nothing.
Then i flashed JM5, bit it still doesn't work.
I also tried another googlemail account, but nothing..
Anyone has a idea? I can't even restore my backups, since i can't download titanium backup from market lol.
This has happened to me today too! Maybe it is problems with the market servers.. :/ Now I am stuck without any applications until it is fixed.
I have the exact same problem and i have also tried a factory reset, if i find a solution I will let you know.

[Q] Manual Nooter Market Issue

Hi - I just downloaded the latest Manual Nooter and applied it to my NC. My market visability seems fine, but when I select an app to download it just hangs there and nothing happens. Anyone have a fix for this? I haven't seen an answer to this anywhere.
i am having the same issue too
well i rebooted with memory card removed and the apps installed fine. when i inserted memory card it stop installing apps. still looking for answers on how to fix
not really liking the rom too well. having a hard time restoring my apps with titanium and the whole process to install non market apps is a pain. hope the fix it with future releases.
Same issue here, with and without the SD CARD. Went from a stock 2.1 no rooting to the ManualNooter 4.5.6.
Trying to install Perfect Viewer and ASTRO File Manager.
I get the "download unsuccessful" which was supposedly fixed with ManualNooter 4.5.6.
*sigh* just going to wait until an AutoNooter comes out, I'm tired of check back all the time, seeing updates, and them not working.
i m also facing the same problem....

Hang in there. Market on mine (after MN 4.5.6) crashes when downloading/updating on occasion but like most early releases it's like a game of "Whack-A-Mole"...fix one thing and two others pop up. I'm positive GabrialDestruir and HamNCheese are working on the irritants and forging ahead. FWIW mine runs well (OC 1.1 also) on both except for the pissy Market (but like I said it works nevertheless).

Odd Market Problem with MN 4.5.6 and later

I haven't seen this particular problem discussed yet, so here goes. Prior to the B&N 1.2 update, I was running B&N 1.1 with the AutoNooter. I had no particular problem using the Market. After cleaning everything back to stock B&N 1.1, I updated to 1.2 and rooted with MN 4.5.6. After doing the Market visibility fix, the downloads shown in the Market did not include any of my freeware downloads, but did include all but one of my paid downloads. In any event, I was able to recover everything but the one paid download, something called Ibird Pro. Some things (News and Weather) did not work as they had before, but most were fine. When I try searching for Ibird Pro (or Ibird Lite for that matter), the Market would not return the program. When I visit the Android Market on my PC, "My Account" shows the program, but won't let me download it because it insists that "This item is not compatible with your device." The Market Help advice is that the app is incompatible either with my screen size or Android version. Well, it was compatible before the B&N update and MN 4.5.6, and Android is now supposed to be 2.2. It seems like this is an issue of the NOOKColor reporting the wrong OS or wrong hardware info to the Market. Any help would be appreciated. (I have tried MN 4.5.18 and .25, after wiping back to a clean B&N 1.2, but they give me flakier results with the Market than 4.5.6.). If this has been discussed, can somebody point me to the thread. Thanks.
Sorry if this seems a silly question, but you don't mention what fixes you have tried other than the market fix in the MN OP. Have you tried any of the other fixes mentioned in the thread itself?
I had a few missing apps, not the amount you seem to be reporting, but others had more and reported that clearing market data and cache, then renaming vending.apk to somethinbg like vending.apk.OLD, reboot, rename back to vending.apk, reboot again, worked to fix the visibility. Worked for me too and no problems since. This was for MN 4.5.25, and can be found somewhere around pg 96 of the MN thread in the dev subforum.
As for the incompatible app message, there are a couple fixes depending. Some have had to go into nook color tools and uncheck 'allow non-market apps', reboot, recheck it, reboot,and it should be fine. This seems to work even for some apps you get from the market but don' t install with the same message you received.
Using a different app to install also works for many. I had to use color tools for one, root explorer for two others which would not install. I copied them from another device onto an sd card, then copied into the correct folders in my nook before installing. Adb is another option to install problem aps.
After doing the market visibility fix, all of the apps, except Ibird Pro, that were still missing form "my downloads" were free ones. That was not a big problem. I just had to look them up and install them again. After I did that, they were back in "my downloads" again. The problem with Ibird Pro appears to be that the Market thinks it won't run on my Nook, so it doesn't show it on the Nook. As I explained, the Market on PC Browser won't send it to the Nook because it claims it is not compatible. I tried several of the fixes mentioned in the developers thread, including renaming vending.apk, etc., but nothing worked. After reading your post I tried unchecking "allow market apps, rebooting, etc." also without any luck. My hope is that this is a different issue than those fixes address. (I can't post in the developers forum because I'm considered a newby here.) It seems like the Nook is simply reporting the wrong hardware or OS to the Market. There could be a simple solution to this, like finding and modifying a text file somewhere in the system. If I were a betting man, I'd bet this is an issue with the B&N 1.2 update, rather than the MN files.
Yeah the post restriction is kinda painful. I only registered to be able to thank those whose work I used and post my experiences w/ .25 as there have been some interesting differences in how the update has been affecting users, and more data can help poinpoint why. Still, I understand why it's there.
I missed that the unsupported message was on your pc, sorry. I think the issue is MN from what you said though. I may be mixing up the large amount of info I've been absorbing recently, but there was a signature issue with the new market or something like that, and I believe I read part of the fix was to change the device the market sees the nook as.
I could be way off, but I remember reading something to that effect in the mn thread. I'm still very new to anroid roms, this is the first I've gotten to play with. =) But this could be exactly your problem.

[Q] Market search works, will not download apps

I cannot get the market to install any applications, though it is working and searchable.
I rooted my nook2e with Xboxexpert's nooter.img and script package, and updated the vending.apk with no results. I ran touchnooter 1.6.24, and now the market works and is searchable, but none of the apps i pick will download, or install.
It's been incremental gains here and there though this whole process... just one last step to get market working!
(also, the youtube app wont run, and gmail says it must be synced with an account, but in the Settings tab for the nook, you cannot add any of the facebook/twitter/google account information, it just flashes the screen and goes back to the previous setting screen.
I had a similar problem. If you can get vending.apk it will fix the download problem

This is the one i updated to, didnt fix the downloading problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15084704&postcount=51
ok, so, i fixed it, and here's how!
I cleared the nook, using the menues to do a factory memory wipe...
Then i put TouchNooter on an SD card, and installed that. Then i ran XboxExpert's batch script to install apps and change settings etc. Then i put the updated Vending.apk file on the sd card and ran that update twice... the first time it made the market not work at all.
but now it works and downloads and searches and everything!

me too running taboonay 2.1
i have this problem too - and it seems others have too according to the taboonay thread...there are quite a few solutions that have been posted including
- deleting your market gmail account and setting up a whole new one,
- downgrading to 1.0.28
- upgrading to 3.1.5/3.1.6
- installing apps thru the website
- updating the rom to 2.2
- downgrading back to 2.1
- wiping caches, reflashing etc
but nothing has worked for me unfortunately tho i havent reflashed (yet)
I see someone has posted a new market version 3.3.11 so i'm about to try that, so i'll let u know how it goes in a few ticks!!
ok, its working...for now
right, this is what i did -
backed up!
cleared market data via settings>manage apps, cache was already mt
rebooted
d/l 3.3.11 from here and installed.
now, after i opened it had to do the 'accept' thing and then tried to d/l a game. I got a dialogue asking which application i would like to use and the choices were:
a) com.google.android.finsky, or
b) com.android.vending
i wasn't sure which one so chose a) and got an error "device not compatible" turns out "finsky" was my original market 1.0.28, so -
used the shortcut for 3.3.11 and voila i'm all sweet, woohoo!!!!
i wouldnt be sure that this is "solved" but it is working - i also have 2 market
shortcuts in my apps list and both versions showing in root explore and titanium
unsure as to whether i can uninstall orig. market
but for the moment i think i'll leave things as they are good luck
I am on a 3.2 stock rom and have the same issue. I have tried some of those above mentioned solutions except changing rom and different market app (I am not rooted so I can't try that) and none worked.
I have sent an email to market support and they are looking to it. But I guess 4.0 will be here before they find a solution.

Usually I find the way to fix this problem is to replace vending.apk in your app folder with a compatible one. You need root to do this, as it involves deleting/renaming a file in the system.
