Why did the phone come from? Is it stock, unaltered from a phone company or retail store or what?
I have never heard of a stock phone without the market app. However, you should be able to flash an appropriate dev ROM for your phone (need to figure out if it is 32A or 32B), or flash a standard ROM.
You could just load the market apk but if that is missing I would really wonder what else is missing.
If your carrier does not have paid apps, then you can use Market Enabler to access them.

I have the same problem. Just received it as a gift that was purchased from www.blueflymobile.com and it seems that the Android Market is the only app that is missing. Why would they take it out???

Yeah my phone was the same, and the android market app is closed source and isn't readily available for download either. The dev guys may know how to inject one into your existing install, but it's probably easier to just flash your phone with one of the ROMs in development forum.

Had the same frustration about the missing market on my mobile. Seems like the missing market on the first non-google-branded HTC android mobiles is mainly caused by a missundestanding between google and HTC. Hopefully they set things straight and updates will be available soon which include the market. But then its good that we got some elite hackers/developers here on XDA

I had the same problem.
I flashed my phone last week to the newest rom update of cyanogen.
All works perfect now!!!!!

Sorry if i keep repeating the same problem as previous user. Im actually having the missing android market application aswell. I bought this from eBay UK from company called Elcell(www.elcell.co.uk). Turned out that it doesnt have any market, not even a single google application installed - just a plain htc phone with basic stuff. I'm just hoping someone would actually guide me a step by step on how to get Android Market manually because I've been looking for this for long time. I really really need help, please any expert people from this forum.

Airtel India Magics have no google apps either
I bought my Magic 32A from India Airtel. Guess what? No google apps there either and a perfected SPL which meant I had no way of flashing a replacement. I ordered a second HTC Magic 32A from the states and it had no google apps either.
Only way I have found to get the market on the phone is to reflash stuff. I don't believe the market can be packaged up like many of the other apps. There are alternatives like slideme.org which offers a "market-like" experience. They even have a agent you can install to quickly download and install apps.
But as nice as slideme could become; its nothing like the market. For the airtel India Magic phones, one is kinda stuck until getting the phone redone. There are some nice Hero ROMs out now.

For those who don't want to flash a cooked rom should get an official update from HTC soon if not already out. Seems like HTC and google cleared out the misunderstandings and future Android mobiles from HTC should ALL have the market installed. So the 32A models will be able to enjoy the google apps as well as exchange

You will in a near future. The domain is already reserved by Zinga for http://www.farmvilleandroid.com
You may be able to play now using the webbrowser (in the Flash webpage) with FROYO (Android 2.2)

i tried it in HTC Desire Froyo, it says Device not supported

Why, it's a gorram virus! A pox on humankind!

Agree... A deadly virus indeed.
But if you are addicted already, at least you can go outside and maybe meet some real people

Are you talking about ZINGA's FarmVille ?
The application was not released.
You may be able to play using Flash if you have Froyo.

Hi,
Sorry to sound noob but, after flashing my i9000 with froyo and installing the flash update, i am still unable to play farmville because it states that device is not supported. what ways are there to work around this? Thanks in advance.

In browser settings chose desktop instead phone and you'll be able to run farmville on default browser. But better way is to choose Skyfire.

I just purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab from Sprint for the sole purpose of playing Farmville at my work. The store employee said it would work but it doesn't. I d/l skyfire as suggested and it gets all the way to loading then just stops and doesn't complete the loading. There is a down arrow on the page and when I click it, it just starts the loading again but doesn't finish. What can I do to get this game working for me? thanks.

[Q] Microsoft Office Mobile Not Compatible with This Device?

Hi all, I just upgraded from Galaxy S4 to Note 4. I had Office Mobile installed on my S4 but when I try to download for the Note 4, I get "Not Compatible with This Device". Anyone know why this is, what to do, or if it WILL be compatible at some time? Thanks!

same message for me...there are plenty of alternatives, so its no big deal

I just pulled the apk from my wife's S5 and it installs and works great. Same thing with the Starbucks app.

Neither is the Starbucks app. ?

I sideloaded the apk and it installed and works with no issues.
Taking Notes on my Note 4

A lot of apps aren't compatible yet. Developers need to update their apps. Redbox and Starbucks to name 2 I need developers to update.

I sideloaded it. Here's a link to the apk I used.
http://1drv.ms/1ron9Gw

Now that Microsoft has made Office Mobile a free app, can someone provide us the straight-from-Microsoft app to try to sideload? The linked version, here, is labeled com.microsoft.office.officehub-15.0.3414.2000-APK4Fun.com.
According to a comment at the "Microsoft Community," Microsoft has classified the N4 as a tablet. Hence the incompatibility.
FWIW, I've signed up with Microsoft to request a preview of the tablet version.

An option

Hancom Office that comes with the phone is much better IMHO but that is up to you. You either sideload the app if you get the apk or you can download an app that works ONLY on rooted phones called Market Enabler - there you can make the market believe that you are downloading from a GS3 or other common phone.

Samsung Pay

Alright, I'm tired of looking so I'll just ask..... Is it just me or is the Samsung Pay stuff not installed on our device out of the box? I can't find anything on it anywhere..... If AT&T removed it by default, I'm not gonna be a happy camper...

Maybe I jumped the gun a little here..... I've just read several articles stating Samsung Pay was enabled by default with the device, however now I'm seeing that its not going to be available to US customers until summer time?!?! If someone could confirm it would be appreciated.
http://www.cio.com/article/2890887/samsung/how-samsung-pay-works-nfc-mst-security-faqs.html
.

Yep summer time it is. Read that in a few articles and I think they mentioned it at the launch event.

Does anyone know if Looppay works natively without the extra accessory? If so, you can still download that.
At least Apple Pay rollout has just been a trickle. Samsung Pay could come in like a flood.

Nope. You have to have the accessory or loop pay will not work.

I've found the link to be able to download the Samsung Pay Beta .apk file but I haven't figured out how to get it to install. Does someone else want to try? I'm stuck on a Samsung S6 Edge running 5.0.2. I wonder if you have to have 5.1.1 to run it.
Korea Link - https://kr.mpay.samsung.com/apk
US Link - https://us.mpay.samsung.com/apk

Here's a download link for the Samsung Pay .apk file I found on the Korean link. It lets me install it on my Samsung S6 Edge+ running android 5.1.1.

Does it work? I'm getting used to Google wallet more and more. When I'm at babiesrus my reward program automatically popped up. Very convenient. It'll be hard to switch to saunaing pay unless it's really magical.

I haven't gotten past the first screen with the start button yet. They may be blocking it until the beta officially opens on Aug 25th. The nice thing about the samsung pay vs google wallet is that nfc isn't required so it should work more places.

I called today and they told me to download the Samsung Plus app from the Google playstore. I downloaded it agreed to the terms and logged in and then inside the app there was a link that said "Join Samsung Pay Beta". So far it doesn't do anything, but it seems promising that it might work tomorrow after the beta has officially begun.

Where in the app I'd the Samsung Pay beta link?

I saw it under the discover some section.

I think I've officially been accepted! I just clicked on the Samsung Pay (stub) placeholder and this time it came up with a different sceen! It's just really strange that there was never an email about being accepted and the Samsung+ app still looks the same and just takes me to the invitation only beta sign up page at Samsung.com.

I tried to install the APK files but it says there's a problem parsing the package. I'm probably missing something. Also, quick question, how did you get a hold of the apk? I signed up the beta and I'm hoping they pick me as well. Samsung Pay was one of the reasons I bought the S6.

Are you on android 5.0.2? It seems like the .apk file for Samsung Pay will only install on 5.1.1.
I was accepted into the beta and then just used an app called apk extractor to pull the updates .apk files off of my phone to share with the community. Sadly it seems like even with the updated Samsung Pay .apk file installed, people are unable to install the update .apk file for the Samsung Pay Framework, and are just stuck on the first screen with the start button.

I got an international version G920f with android 5.1.1 but still not able to install the Framework app. I have a payment framework app with the same package name which is only 24kb v 1.1.1. I wonder if there are other libraries which samsung updated only the US version with.

Cannot install a lot of apps from GP store

I did the nuke-it-and-make-it-usable upgrade. This is my first, so please forgive me if I don't use the correct terminology. I used FlashFire and uploaded SlimRom, SuperSu, and mini-gapps. It seems most of the apps I try to install says its not compatible with my device. Some apps I know are supposed to be there, don't show up in a search. Also, it kinda leans like it's a phone instead of a tablet. This may be normal, not sure there. Someone smarter than me, feel free to chime in. Am I doing something wrong, or did I miss a step? I used the tool from RootJunky. They gave this forum a lot of props and said you guys are the go-to peeps. I believe I got my files from the mirrors here. Amazon Fire 7", 5.1.1, Thanks in advance...

You pretty much would have to install the APK for each app that you cannot download from the Google Play store, part of the reasoning behind this is because Amazon Fire isn't officially supported by the Google Play Store, thus some apps will be unistallable via the app store.
You can download the APKs here: https://apkpure.com/app?hl=en
All the APKs should work. Just one thing to note would be that in the future, you'd have to reinstall the APK whenever a new update arrives for your app.
Best of luck!

So, in the background its still an Amazon Fire? I guess I just assumed by doing the new ROM, it would get rid of everything Amazon. That's what I get for assuming :laugh:. Thanks!!

Great question and thanks for the answer. This may not be related to the "505 error" but I noticed with apps like "Open Camera" that it says the device is not compatible, and now I know why!

I have since used apkpure and so far all the apps I have searched for has installed and worked pretty much like their supposed to. Thanks again!

Yeah, I had the same problem, particularly with "Google Play." Sadly, my local news channel app is not available there, but a lot of other apps I was having problems with were.
