[Q] Triggering Android Market update - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way to trigger the update to the latest Android Market APK ?
It updated itself automatically a few days ago while I was running on KG3, but I flashed JVR yesterday and since then, it doesn't seem to want to update...

Nope. But you can download the newest market apk yourself. Just google for it.
knowledge is Power. Guard it well.

Manually update it! Just search for the latest market Apk on Google and after downloading it just install it! Btw I had the link saved somewhere if I find it ill provide you with it!

Dont update the latest android market is buggy & too slow last 2 days it shows all the apps which have update but cant download any, gives error connection times out..............try again, my data connection has no speed problems.

exactly..for first few days the new app was fast but soon like said above it became a total waste.now uninstalled updates and using old 2.3.6 market version.

Me too reverting back to 2.3.6 for now.
How do I revert back to 2.3.6?
When trying to install 2.3.6.apk it says "there is a problem parsing the package"
Edit
I uninstalled update then restarted the phone & it finally reverted back to older 2.3.6 and it works fine now.

2.2 MARKET FOR ECLAIR!
This is an update that is gradually turning directly From google!
Sooner or later you will have it, but ... if you're hurry xD
Apply this update-nosign.zip through your OpenRecovery (any xD) and you have the market updated!
I attach also the apk, install via file-explorer or root-explorer in /system and give the right permissions!
update.zip ---> Market-update-nosign.zip
Apk ----------> Vending.apk
There's more:
Automatic Update
Update multiple (when it says "update all")
Comments is divided into tab
Overall speed improved!
Well then ... Have Fun!
thank you!i try it
why you don`t show some pic
Got it too two days ago, when the paid market is available to Singapore. I was browsing the market and find it look different but cannot figure out what is it, until I go to downloads and realise that it has a Update All button, this where I realise I got the 2.2 market.
However I thought the new market is only 2.2 only?
Great
Will try out later

Mine crashed when I first tried to open a paid app's page, but after that it works again, when I reopen Market. Have you tried uninstalling the update and let it update again and once it done that, close and reopen market and try to poke around to see if it force close again.
Thanks for this, used the Apk... no issues to report.
Market Update (eclair)
90% of people already got it...
Good lookin out though! Worth the DL for those on custom roms that didnt get it.
I havent received this update and the APK provided causes force closes all the time. Im Telus Milestone on telus running GOT 2.1 update /w TELUS Lite 4.1
anyone else getting this problem?
Just update manualy. This silent update needs OTA update enabled. As it is basicly OTA, but just the silent version And custom ROMs dont have OTA working usualy.
The best feature in this market was not posted.
This market remembers what apps you had installed, and after doing factory/changing ROM this market automaticly installs back all the apps! Wonderful, no more need for MyBackupPro, well it is for apps that should be bought

Im also running TELUS Lite 4.1 and getting the exact same problem.
sooo... what features do we gain over the update that was given by default, versus your .apk file?
Is it really worth my time to get this?
As far as know there is no difference to getting update ofcialy or like this way? After all update only updates the market app, nothing else.
Thanks for apk.
I (for one) did NOT receive this update (OTA).
THANKS for the APK! I appreciate it...

how to Avoid re-install or reconfigure GApps on CM7 after every OTA update?

hello guys,I am a ROM manager premium user. I purchase this only for making my nightly update easier (I don't like to download the ROM and sent to sdcard, especially for the nightly build). However, every times I got the update it ask for the google apps.If I accept then after everything is done, my account detail lost (I have never wipe anything expect installing cm7 at the first time!!!!!!!) . I need to reconfigure the account every day. If i deny it,then the google market would disappear after everything updated. I can't download anything without re-install google app at rom manager.That is really inconvenient.
Somebody tells me that the google market can be installed separately.Once I have done this. There is no need to do anything when I update the new nightly build. I have tried this way but at last I got a Android market without login function(even I setup the account at Settings->Privacy , it failed to connect the server). Without the Market I can't get my premium lincense back, and...........I could not imaging a android phone without market.That is really really.....something.
It seems that I should be go back to use MIUI(I used to be a MIUI fans when I still using my Moto Defy.After I tried the original CM7 on P990 I changed my mind!!)
I would be grantful if anybody could give me a solution about this. Thanks
you don't have to download/install GAPPS every time there's an update. I do it manually through Recovery anyway; much less chance of something going wrong.

Can't get latest Market

Hi there, i bought a Nexus S to replace the Xperia X10, and i notice that i can not update the market, i am stuck at 2.3.6.
i went to apps managemet and uninstalled the "updates" and clear the data for the market app but it doesn't work, it keep downloading the 2.3 version instead of the 3.1 version.
In the X10 the market updates correctly so it is not a country related problem.
any ideas???
Download the apk yourself and install it

I wish I could keep the old market. The new one is slow, laggy, having strange bug of it wanting to attach itself to another Gmail I have, and I have no need for books or movies.
If I pull the new out and install old, the new one updates all by itself. I don't know he it's possible to keep the market from updating itself.
Look under /system/app for MarketUpdater.apk and either delete it or change the permissions to 000.
Then go to manage applications and uninstall market update.
Your market will now stay the same

As far as the market goes.....
Make sure you have the MarketUpdater.apk in /system/app. Also clear try clearing data for the market under settings-->applications-->manage applications
And for the software updates....
What version do you have? Because not all models and carriers are at the same software build number.
i haven't rooted the phone, and it is stock.
i am the only one with this problem???
my phone is factory unlocked and it is a i9020a phone.
Its not a "problem". The update isn't instantly pushed to all phones right away. It gets pushed in stages or something to that effect.

Download it, put on SD card and install

yes i undesrtand that, but there is a previus version i think is the 3.1.3, and i can't get that version too, and it's released months ago, the strange thing is that i can update to the green version 2.3.1 from the grey one (i don't remenber the version but it's one of the first market available).
3.1.3 was never released to our nexus s
Hi,
I had thesame problem as you are experiencing now. Tried the downloaded version but uninstalled it.
Since this morning i have the official market app.
This is how i got it, maybe it has nothing to do with it but its worth a try.
- go to settings and enable location via.Wifi and cellular
- go to app management and remove cache, app data and the market updates you might have
- in the launcher open market app, accept terms and let it load to home screen
- push home button
- lock your phone for about 15minutes
You should have the new market now. I tried this twice and both times it worked then i disabled the location setting and it didnt work.
Hope this helps you.

@p.pavljasevic, your method confirmed working, I just did mine and got 3.1.5 now.
I stop trying long time ago thinking it might've been not pushed to the phone yet, I just tried it and it worked.

Ok, the wifi and gps location was activated, i uninstalled the market updates and clead data and i went back to 2.13 version (the grey one), wait a few minutes and the 2.3.6 version was installed (the green one). I also tried turning wifi and gps off and no luck
someone says that the 3.1.3 version was never pushed to nexus, anyone else experienced that??
I am glad that it worked for at least one more person, hope it can help more people.

[Q] MIUI ROM - Google play doesn't allow app install

Hi Guys,
I switched from CM7 to MIUI and its been working wonders. Great ROM. I am on Android 2.3 with build MIUI-203300
I went to google play to download the new Daily Show app, but the store doesn't recognize the phone as being compatible even though it says the minimum requirement is Android 2.1
Anybody can please point me on how to fix this. Much much appreciated.
thx..
This has happened to me before just re flash the from. Or Even wipe.
If this helps hitting the thanks button would be much appreciated.
This has happened to me some time ago while jumping around ROMs.
What helped me once was to pull the /system/build.prop from KK4 stock and replace the current one.
YMMV since that happened to me before Play, when the market was still called Market.

Downgrading from ICS to GB - Market issue

After going back to GB,
When going into Market (play), google says updates are available for Gmail, Youtube, Flash.
Trying to install the upgrade results in "invalid sdk version" (error message in french so I did my best to translate it) ...
I tried to manually remove youtube apk but still no luck reinstalling.
Is it possible that android market keep track of my previous ICS update and dont want to offer me GB apps ?
Thanks for your help !
i had this issue when I decided ICS wasn't for me at the time, I fixed the issue back then.
Recently I thought i'd give ICS another go but the way I have GB is perfect for my needs and reverted again back to GB untill all the apps I have are supported, yet again I've also ran into the same error but for the life of me can't remember how I fixed it.
Any help on this issue would be great?
I've tried reverting market, full wipe, dalvik, cache, flashing individual kernel, modem(back to what I had with GB) but yet still no success.

To test that question, simply do a factory reset on GB, boot up the phone, and attach another GMAIL account to the phone and download the same App again. If it works, you have your answer.
Maybe check the googleplay store on your desktop browser to see if there is some sort of "clear app history" option for that gmail account?
I tried your suggestion and it worked but it wasn't the method I used ladt time round, only problem is, when I restore my GB backup before I flashed ICS the market still thinks I'm on ICS yet when factory reset it works.
There is no differece with the backup compared to the format as I done the backup before any ICS related things were done, so I don't understand why the market thinks I'm on ICS with the GB backup.
Try recovery mode and clear cache, and delete data from it.

Yeah, already tried sevetal times, on other forums people say to wait until the market refreshes itself after doing quick flashes one after the other, apparently it fixes itself between 30mins to 2 days or so once play recognises your final Android version.
