View 1 RepliesAfter installing the 2.1 update onto a SE X10 mini the Android Market will not function. It opens, I can browse and select apps but when attempting to download it states 'starting Download', with a barber-pole bar, but the download goes no further. I have re-installed the update which seemed to work at first with one download working but then the same problem re-occurred. Based on info in other feedback on this blog I reviewed the app settings but there is no update to uninstall. how to get the Market to work?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have alot (and I mean ALOT) of apps on my Xperia, so I get around 5 app updates a day, which is now starting to agitate me because most of them are the same apps everyday needing updates.
Today I heard about an update for the market that includes an auto update feature for installed apps. But I, like many others, do not see this option on the market.
Does anyone have any idea how to get it? or if I can't get it, when can I?
Does it actually work? I still have to manually update the apps I put on auto update.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo one of the cool things about Froyo is being able to check off Enable Automatic Update for market apps. So i have that checked off for like 80+% of my 80+ apps (that took a while to do let me tell you). Now i have had three apps have updates available since i checked off the box, yet they never actually automatically updated. I waited, hours, still never updated. Is there a setting i need to modify? Do i need to tell it what time of day to do it? Anyone else noticing this? I only really want it in apps that i don't care about reading the new features. But it is annoying that i have it enabled and it does nothing.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a Nexus One using 2.2.1 and was notified that four apps had updates, so I opened Market and clicked "Update All", exited Market, hit the power button to put the phone to sleep and put it away. The next day I look in the Market and those apps still say "Installing..." I can't cancel them and rebooting the phone did nothing. They just show the progress bar with the hash marks scrolling by.I can still use the apps though. I don't want to see what happens if I uninstall mostly because I'd loose the data in the apps. The battery doesn't seem effected, so right now it appears to be just an uncomfortable curiousity.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI uploaded my app to the market last night, and after an hour or so it showed 107 installs, 88 active, 2 comments. It still says that (12+ hours later), even though when I click comments there are 10+. How often do the statistics update? Is there any way to update them manually?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to upload an upgrade in the market. But when I upload the apk and new images and click save or publish everything is lost when I return to the listing (the old apk and images are restored). The only thing that changes is the saved versioncode of the app. Is there something broken?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an app on the market that requires sdk 2.0. I want to rewrite and publish it using 1.6 to find a wider audience.
The question is: if I update my already published app with an sdk downgrade to 1.6 will it then show up to users with phones at 1.6? I know currently the market search shows my app only to those that have 2.0 phones.
Hello! If I shall download application not from Android Market and install it, can I update this application from Market later? This application exist on Market.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter different testing, I found an issue with the "update method" when installing an application update.
I developped "DilbertDroid", and a lot of people are saying that there is missing some functionnality but the latest version published on the market have this functionnalities.
I suppose that when updating a application, the updater doesn't kill the process related to the application but only update the application files on phone. Result: the old application is still running until you kill the process or reboot the system.
I think it is not very professionnal to tell user to deinstall and then reboot their phone in order to install an update.
My application doesn't have any service running
following on a recent topic posted here is my question- how can I find out which version of Android Market am I running? If I go to Market and press "menu" button on the phone none of the options answers to my question.
My second question is- where is the "Update all" button in the Market. I can not see it anywhere.I am running Froyo 2.2, Orange branded Desire, stock ROM.
I just checked the market for updates on my applications and there is an update for beautiful widgets. I thought this app was pulled from the market? Has anyone done this update? I am afraid that if i update it will change the way it looks to something less appealing because of the whole HTC C&D letter.

He gave me the .apk installer file.Now that I have the Weather channel app that I didnt get from the store, therefore not in "My Downloads" section of the market, how do I update it?There must be a simple fix, but i could seem to track it down on the forums.
View 6 Replies View RelatedSince getting HTC's unbranded 2.2 on my Desire I'm no longer getting notifications about apps that have been updated on the Market. The notifications option is set to "Notify when items are updated" and I've tried various combinations of disabling and enabling it and rebooting the phone and still I'm not getting notifications for updates. I always got notified when I had 2.1.I've posted this a few times in the bugs thread, but it just gets lost in all the other talk, which is why I've started this thread.

View 2 Replies View RelatedA month ago I bought 2 Samsung captivates at the same time. Tonight while messing with the one I gave my Fiancee, I notice her Market was different from mine. Hers says it is version 1714, mine says 2002012.I couldn't find any thing on the web other than there are a few android phones, non samsung, that are also stuck at 1714, and that 2012 is the latest version.
View 21 Replies View RelatedOne thing that annoys me is when there is an update for an app in the market and I don't know what they are updating. Some apps tells you the stuff they are adding or improving but most don't. On some you can click on the developer's page n they will tell you. But there is a lot that you don't know what the updates are.Like the very popular Pandora radio app. I checked today and there was an update to 1.5 but there is nothing that tells me what the update is.I am new to android, maybe I am missing something but is there a way to see what the updates are before you download?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've noticed this since I've updated to Froyo (many weeks ago) but I don't know if it's related to Froyo or just some random coincidence. Whenever I update an app that's stored on my SD card I get the "Failed to install application" error. It's easy to fix just move the app to the phone, but it's kind of a pain in the backside. Is there an easier fix? Or should I just keep all apps on the phone and use the SD for photos and music or something?I have a non-rooted HTC Incredible.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs is possible for me to publish an android app on my own website and not use android market. The app is for use with our internet software services and is therefor only in the interest of our existing clients.
The second questions is, can I install updates to my app after it is installed or would I have to use the market to accomplish that task?
I'm not sure who I should complain to about this, HTC or Google, but after I did the most recent Hero (sprint) firmware update I am unable to see applications that I developed nor several applications that I paid for (and free ones) on the Market. This makes updating them unavailable. Also, if I do a factory reset on my phone, then I will not be able to download these paid for applications again. What's the deal here? A friend of mine who also did the firmware update is in the same boat. Since I do have applications out there that people are buying, I am now unable to view comments for those since I cannot see them on the Market. What's the solution to this? Should I contact HTC as well?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I got my 2.2 update for Moto Droid 1 on Friday and I was eager to check out the new flash player. I read that you had to download the Flash player 10.1 app from the android market after the update but I can't seem to find said app anywhere in there. Adobe says that the app has already been released and only users with the 2.2 update can see it in the market, well...
what am I doing wrong? the only adobe app that shows up when I search is Flash Showcase, which needs 10.1 to work.
With 2.2 we got the market feature to update all which will just update all of the apps that have outstanding updates in the market.
What I cannot figure out is how to stop one particular app from updating, specifically I do not want to update the Facebook app since there are many reviews saying it is a big battery drainer and I do not use the app anyway.
Also, anytime I download a new app from the market, it automatically starts the download of the Facebook update, so I have to cancel it or if I don't catch it in time I have to uninstall the update. For both instances it just appears in my update queue again and I have the same problem next time.
So basic question is: Is there any way to select an app to not automatically update with the update all feature, or can we turn off the update all feature?
However... a few weeks ago I was having issues with the Market (downloads were freezing in the "installing" stage) so I "Uninstalled updates" in the Market application under "manage applications". When this happened, it reverted my market back to how it was pre the newer market update.
My question: does anyone know how I can manually update to the new market again? The phone did it automatically before, so now I don't know how to get the "new" market.
i was wondering if there is a way to automatically update a comment in the android marketplace. I'm not a spammer, but I have an issue for the dev and I want it up top so he see's it, and it's been an issue since day 1. Won't go into much more detail other than that, but if anyone knows how to do this please help me out.

An example is the sniper shot app i was very happy with it and now i cant find it on android, and now i have to install all apps using Astro and its very boring.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI uploaded the new updates to the application in the market. There was no error message shown. It seemed that the uploading was successful. However, the version name and the app itself were still the old version. FYI: lost the original private key or the keystore file. I generated a new keystore file to sign the app. I also met the minSDK problem and solved it by set the minSDKversion in the manifest file. There must be a way to update the app. I don't want to upload the app as an new application since there is a large base of existing customers.
