So I updated to FroYo manually thanks to the methods posted here. I've nearly reinstalled all my apps with the exclusion of one; Square. I cannot find it in the market and thought maybe the dev pulled it, but it shows up in 2.1 and web-based market browsers, just not in 2.2. Anyone else experiencing this? Can I just force the apk onto the phone somehow?

Same here.. seems like the copy protected apps are having problems.
This is not root or something else regarded - everyone has these issues.

Great to hear I'm not alone, but being an early adopter can sometimes blow (in the BAD way) =\
Is this being discussed in another thread? I did a search prior to posting and came up empty
EDIT: Mods, thanks for moving this to the appropriate forum. I've seen mention of this issue appear in various threads, though no thread of it's own. Will wait for devs to catch up with 2.2
I reported the same problem on modaco last night... I'm sure google will enable de protected apps this week, just a slight oversight on their side.
i had same problem, just put them apk on your sd card and install it. if it is being a stubborn app like a certain few just copy/paste or move them to data/private-app and install from in there. should take care of it 4 u.
Same problem here (Tapatalk Pro and Extended Controls missing).
when you create an app you can set a max api level to support, or not.
applications that have that set won't show on newer devices.
exzeus, square, and a few others seem to have done it...
give them about a month or so and you should see them come around.

reporting in for the same problem!
My App ICE Donate wasn't found either.. I removed the copy protection until Froyo is officially listed - it can be found and downloaded again
I'm missing cachemate, I only see the free version and I've check the box for all sources for apps. astro will not install from my backups

Having the same issue here. Wife's N1 can't find WeatherBug Elite, or the Helix Launcher in the market. Even after reboot.
Same. Paul actually fixes it in his roms by changing the Rom fingerprint. Some of the unofficial nexus updates he integrated did the same thing to protected apps. Once fingerprint was changed, it seemed to have done the magic. I'm guessing that he will do the same next week for froyo.
Same here my paid app wont show up which means I may be losing sales so I'm pissed right now
Yeah, so no MLB app at the moment... which makes me unhappy.
Any word on an official response from Google yet on this issue?

Cool.. Just loaded it on vegan beta 5.1. Seems to work just fine. Don't know if I see any more stuff, but never really had a problem finding things with the other ones.
I do notice that the appearance seems crisper. Like maybe they are using a higher quality. Or, maybe not.
Still the same for me. Stars still truncated. Missing apps still missing.
The new apk is about 600 MBA larger than earlier one.
Jim
Just for fun I went ahead and did the market fix again. Didn't need to but I saw the earlier post and was curious. I never could get it to open after the first reboot. Had to reboot again. Then once it started working I have noticed more of the "android.process.acore" errors, and server errors then with the older one. I will be rolling back to a previous version myself since this doesn't seem to really make anything better.
I wonder if there should be an updated GoogleServicesFramework with this?

Works for me
I'm running vegan 5.1 with pershoots latest kernel and here are my findings thus far. I backed up market with titanium and installed the update, immediately opened market. Everything looks to be there, I searched for a few things and installed one or two. I looked for adw and couldn't find it, I did see its themes but not the app. Rebooted, loaded up market no fc's, until I tried to roll back to previous version to look for adw because I am almost certain it was there before. Interestingly I did see appbrain which I've never been able to get before. Never tried market fix, and did not notice any image improvement. Anyone know for certain what to look for to see if it actually improves previous market? I'm going to try and fix my market now and will report back if anyone's interested.
I installed via the apk (there is also an update.zip available) and all working well. No reboot or clearing Google Services Framework required.
I had previously preformed the well documented market fixes but could never quite get the entire market. Everything appears to show up now.
I'm not sure it is complete I can't find a few things. But then again I found a bunch of things I couldn't find before either. Catch 22 yet again.
anyone else having a problem with 'Media Volume' not working after this update? The rocker doesn't work, I tried to go in the settings (I had to unmute and turn the system sound back up - no dice), I even tried to play a video and turn up the sound using the software controls within that program....nothing works.
How do I revert back? Where is the old .apk located?
....also had to turn my wi-fi on with each reboot, which is new.
Running Vegan5.1
I think it would be most helpful if you guys actually listed the names of the titles of the apps that you either DO or DO NOT see once you have tried this. Just might help in the troubleshooting aspect. For what its worth.
ckelly,
search xda for market or vending.apk and you will find many versions to play with
Volume corrected on reboot #2.
Wi-Fi still needs to be manually connected..
@sixvolt
Since this appears to not improve things, you must have had even less apps show up than we did and this update brought you to par with the rest of us. Everything is relative
Based on DesignGears Adeo (REDUX) v0.2
I know I have a lot of people to specifically credit/thank but it's 12:30am here and I'm ready to fall asleep at the keyboard! I will have to revisit this in the morning and check for any feedback you all have.
BTW, Battle:LA, AWESOME MOVIE!
So I did a bit of theming after I got the services.jar file edited to support transparency in the notification drop-down. I also made the following additions to the ROM:
AppWidgetPicker
Playstation App
Fenny's WebTop Mod
Adobe Flash 10.2
Titanium Backup
Larger APNs list (apns-conf.xml) for unlocked phones
This is packed up with the Adeo v0.2 update since DesignGears did such a great job of scripting that update. You *should* be ok to re-apply this over v0.2 but I have not tested that myself.
INSTALL AT YOUR OWN PERIL - THIS HAS ONLY BEEN TESTING WORKING ON MY OWN HANDSET
DOWNLOAD LINK
Also included in the download file are the icon/dock images I used with LauncherPro which you will see in the screenshots.
UPDATE: If you have issues with MotoBlur widgets after this update you will need to perform a factory data reset. Actually, if you use the Blur features, just plan on performing that reset no matter what.
PICASA WEB ALBUM (higher quality screenshots)

I'm testing this right now. Thanks, it looks awesome. Also, you might wanna make sure that you tell people that they need Adeo 0.1 BEFORE applying this update.
(A Mod might move it though... >.<)
hey man i just tested it. i do have the never software flashed on it (the sbf file frmo teh forums), and it seems to work fine, however i saw a glitch or so to say, namely when i did the webtop over hdmi only, after disconnecting the hdmi, and pressing the off/on button to put the screen to sleep, i tried to get it from sleep again and the screen just stayed black no matter what i did, i had to pull out the battery and now it works again.
so it might be a glitch with the newer version and teh webtop hack.

Well, there were a lot of people having problems with their MotoBlur after the 0.2 update and I believe this "ROM" is based on that update so maybe a factory reset would have fixed it?

Yup, had to upload via dog sled to! It does have MotoBlur, no way of completely removing that right now. I just choose to use LauncherPro Plus instead of the stock MotoBlur launcher because I never use any of the Blur crap. If we ever get a custom recovery I will definitely work on a Blur-less ROM!
crnkoj, thanks for the feedback on the webtop mod! I have not even tried it yet but I'll probably play with that later this afternoon. If it continues being a pain I'll remove it from the updater.
songoghon, some people have reported that issue with blur specific widgets after the Adeo v0.2 updated (as mentioned above). The only solution which seems to work universally is a factory reset.
The primary reason for this mod/theme/pseudo-rom is for my own personal use which is why you guys might find glitches I don't see. Everyone uses their phones a little differently so I really appreciate the feedback!
I still have some ideas for the graphics since I really dislike the lock screen sliders and I can see a few small glitches. Updates will be posted as I work on it (and as I have the time).

I don't like that the messages app icon and email app icon are really small..

+1 on that quoted section above. If those two Icons were normal sized - i would have no complaints period. Love the theme job here. Please keep this going and update it as often as you can. This is very nice looking. I love the Signal bar design
[edit] There are actually a few icons that got shrunk down to very tiny sizes.... Hope this is an easy fix and an easy update to those who have this installed

I'm using Koush's CM9 Alpha 12 ROM at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356228 with the Franco kernel, and I'm saddened that it's sorely missing one big feature that i'm used to in the NSCollab ROM i came from. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959282)
In the stock Android 2.3.3 that came with the phone, if the Facebook app was installed, it could sync contacts over from your account, including phone numbers, emails, and pictures. The OTA 2.3.4 removed that function, as Google had deemed it as a violation of their TOS.
NSCollab (based off of CM7), which i'd used since 2.3.5, enabled that function somewhere in the system files, and it was fully usable, no questions asked. The CM9 build i'm using, however, lacks that feature.
I've compared both of their build.prop files and don't see any differences that would stand out, and I'm at an impasse here. I'm almost determined to find the setting in the CM7 ROM that allows Facebook syncing on this device and be able to use it in CM9. I'm not sure i want to comb every system file, though. Any assistance?
The reason it works in custom ROMs is because they patch it to work. It's not a build.prop issue I do not believe. It is a bit deeper than that. Hopefully someone can she some light to get it working. It's a feature I use as well.
But that's the explanation "why" it does not work.. because it's not supposed to by design lol.
by no means do I have an answer but, syncmypix in the market is a decent alternative for the tome being.

I'd determined that long ago, but i'm almost certain there's a flag somewhere in the system files. My cousin has an HTC Thunderbolt (horrible phone on the stock ROM) running the stock ROM, Gingerbread 2.3.5, and it's enabled on it. I know that Google specifically disabled it on their flagship phones, and i want to know how they did it and how to reverse it.

I have tried Syncmypix, Friendcaster, and another one that tries to re-enable native syncing, but none of them work near as well as native syncing.
In GB it was in system\app\ContactsProvider.apk , one line need to be added which whitelists com.facebook.katana. Maybe it's the same in ICS.
[edit]
There, I looked it up: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978470
Here you can find the official statement from Google about Facebook sync:
http://www.androidguys.com/2011/02/23/google-drops-facebook-sync-nexus/
Anyway you can sync your contacts using Friendcaster and you can update your contact pics using syncmypix

I'd considered that, even set up a decompiling environment, but never got around to trying it. Just tried it, and found out that comparing the two ContactsProvider.apk files (from CM7 and CM9), that ICS does not use the arrays.xml that Gingerbread did. Adding it in, recompiling it, and signing it results in FC's and wiping out your contacts storage. Thank god for Titanium backup.
Edit: Derp, found out system apps aren't supposed to be signed. Trying again.

I well know what Google did, and i'm very disappointed in them. And i'd rather not use third-party apps if we can enable native syncing at the system level.
Pushing the unsigned apk doesn't cause FC issues, but it still doesn't sync. The Facebook app cuts off at "Other Settings". Does anyone want to test out the apk for me, see if they get the same results?
The APIs are different in ICS and doing the white list trick may not work. Check out the smali folder because there could be stuff that needs to be changed in there too...

I've already tried this. You'll be able to get the account to sync in Accounts, but the new contacts app is substantially different from the Gingerbread one... Like ^ says, I think a few smali edits have to be made to include this properly.

I'm combing the smali folder as we speak, but nothing stands out as a definitive match
The one problem about ics, you're working to fix. Thanks man! I hope you find your answer!
Haven't found it yet, though. I've been trying to get into contact with koush, see if he's had any insight.
MoDaCo got it working on the Galaxy Nexus. If anyone has the galaxy yet, you could upload his rom and them comb through the /system and see what has been changed. we could then possibly implement it for the Galaxy S as well.

You need to edit the build.prop located in the system folder. Recommend using winrar
/system/build.prop
Once there, you will open the file and edit it using a word processing program of you choice. Notepad is fine.
Use search/find button till you locate something that says this Default network type. # 4 => CDMA
From there change the 4 to a 3.
Then next to it you will see this ro.telephony.default_network=4, change it to 3.
Also change "ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=1" to "ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=0"
This should work, if it doesn't please tell me so I can try and help!

Haha, seems he has themes working if you flash a zip file which is interesting. I believe he could put those files in the rom file and get it working with one flash, but I will see if I can get it to work in one flash. Having Themes working would be great.
Sparky's port is pretty nice actually; I tested a couple of builds, but keep coming back to AOSP, because I'm familiar with it. Sparky is also experimenting with different bases (AOKP and CM9) for the ROM, to maximize battery life. He could definitely lend some assistance. Nice to see yet another option become available for the D3! Keep up the great work!

It wouldn't be a big deal if I didn't work in the financial field, but I end up needing access to US and foreign market info throughout the day, so I need a solid solution in order to use MIUI, and take advantage of the excellent features the ROM offers.

It seems that changing the build.prop will make the android market think it is a different phone, but I would rather not change that, I would give Market Enabler a try first.
I would look into sparky's port over at droid hive. You two should team up as opposed to have competing MIUI ports (IMO). Based on the bug list alone and my running of his work, he has a few things functioning that you do not.
The rotation issue I brought to his attention is that when auto rotation is OFF, it should only display in landscape if the phys keyboard is opened, but it does not. It stays locked in portrait.

also meant to say, i already have fix/solution for the theme folder, but he has not incorporated, I'm not sure why...

What is your fix? I already sent him a message on xda, but he didn't reply yet. I didn't know someone else made an MIUI rom for Droid 3 otherwise I would not have made this one, but since I did, I will continue to work on it. Maybe me and him can team up.

Not sure how I stumbled onto this page, but I am currently using IsaneMod's MIUI port for the Bionic right now, and I had this same problem. A few apps would not appear on the Market, acting as if they were not compatible for the Bionic. I got so frustrated, I flashed another ROM to get all my apps back. Well after missing MIUI on my phone, I flashed it again, thinking I could live without those few apps for a while. Well, I ended up accidentally fixing the market issue. For some reason, I thought you had to flash a Google Apps .zip after flashing the MIUI Rom, so I did. But I was actually incorrect as the Google Apps are a part of the ROM, but when flashed G-apps, I flashed what was supposed to be for an ICS ROM instead, but when I booted up my phone, my market had the apps I was once missing. However, I also lost a few icons for certain apps on my phone. Like the MIUI browser app was gone, and I had the ICS browser app instead; and a few other apps did this as well. They all still worked, but flashing the G-apps from that ICS ROM accidentally fixed my market issues. Yes, it was an unnatural way to fix the problem, but if you can find such a file to flash for MIUI on your phone, it may just fix the problem like mine did - as long as you can live without a few MIUI themed app icons. That is, until this problem is solved a more natural way. Anyways, just thought you might want to try this if you want MIUI on your phone but also need your important apps. I hope I was helpful. Good luck!
fyi, for the themes zip that you have to flash for Sparky's ROM, I did that and applying themes works for the most part...the text is sometimes messed up if the theme has a black text and when applying a theme to the Message app, it only changes the theme when you go into a conversation with somebody, not the inbox AND the conversation like it should
and somtimes the placement of things is a little off, like for the lockscreen i use the slider should be in the middle, but it is off to the left a little bit, probably a screen res issue or something from the port

Thanks, I already tried it and noticed the same thing, you should not have to flash a .zip for it to work though so I was looking for other solutions. I have just got to be missing something.
