Old Market - Epic 4G Apps

I hate the new market but everytime I try to use the old market for any period of time it force closes on me and says object not found. Does anyone have a working one?

Aaarrrrggggghhhh they all force close. Did google freakin sabotage the old market?!

I think that they're trying to force people into using the new one. So certain commands aren't handled as well. But I have issues with the new one not allowing me to install my paid or free apps upgrades. It's aggravating.

you are correct sir most old styles will auto update to 3.1.5 unless you have the updater frozen then it will try to push the update thru systemupdates.apk(if u freeze it your old stuff will work FYI), & it gets confused bc the old style dont like that...
& thats the best reason i got lol

I tried oh well, RIP 2.x market.

I am using Market 2.3.4 on SRF 1.1.1 w/Genocide 2.0.

No FC's & Market works fine.

Definately stupid...smh, changed it back to stock and got everything to work...and even updated some apps I didn't even know were outdated...lol, also the movie tab came back in the market which dissapeared...I just thought the market knew the phone was rooted which is why it wasn there...so canging it back did actually more than I expected...thanks mane!

Here's how to get the old market back permanently.
Settings / applications / manage applications /market / remove updates
After doing this use MyBackup or Titanium to freeze the upater

Or just delete it.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App

Deleting the market updater seems to cause problems but the biggest problem I have with any 2.x market is that after a while it starts saying object not found. I hate being forced to use something ugly
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

I've never had any problems with it being deleted...except it says no connection but I had that even before deleting it. Once I hit refresh it comes back.

i also freeze the market.updater (right one?!) with TB, but after every reboot the new market comes again....

Does this only apply to that particular ROM? Also, does making it a system app in Titanium do the same thing?

I don't think so...I've experienced it on a smaller less frequent scale even running EG22...I think it has somthing to do with less RAM being available in Gingerbread...and I also have a lot of apps (100+) installed...could that be apart of the problem?

In Launcher pro I select to keep in memory on the preferences and it works fine not reloading. without it would reload as you describe quite often.

[Q] LCD Density and the annoying Market

So I have seen this issue on other forums, but was wondering if any of our fine developers had looked into this at all. High level summary---if you change your LCD density, a multitude of apps in the new market (3.1.3) will tell you your phone is not compatible. I believe this happens in version 3.0.27 (or whatever the last version was). Basically, the only workarounds I have seen or found is to reset the LCD density back to 240 anytime you want to use the market (I have found 172 to be the best setting for me, so this is a big difference, and just a general pain to keep switching back and forth). The other option is to downgrade my market back to version 2.X.X. Is there anyway to bypass the density check or force the value the market uses to always read 240?? Thanks is advance!!
Bump. If anyone gets this to work, id like to know too.

If this gets a fix, I'll change my density. But I use the market too much

And I have mine at 162. Super Manager, ACS Updater, Go Weather, QuickPic, Rhapsody, Facebook, Adobe Flash, etc don't work with the new market below 240.
But maybe you don't use those particular ones. Or they came pre-istalled.
Old market perhaps?

Idk if LCD Density is responsible, or if it got pulled, but since this thread has been posted, it seems to have been pulled out of the market, I'll verify by checking my apps to see what info is provided.

anybody know why?
Maybe they have an update guideline.. or improper flagging.. or pulled by request of the person who made it. I've emailed the dev in the past, 0 feedback, perhaps he removed it to release a better version, or perhaps was insulted/furious in the fact that there's other apps that provide the same functions, and even copied his apk icon, recoloring it to avoid copyrights.

Shootme Alternatives?
Does anyone know of any good alternatives to Shootme?
I have v0.8.1 on my phone, but for some reason its not working.
Actually, its kinda weird. It worked perfectly fine on my Evo running Froyo before I rooted. Then I rooted a couple weeks ago and flashed CM7.1. Now its saying "Failed to start server. Please check that you have ROOT access...blah blah blah," even though I've granted it Superuser permission. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and the like. I know CM7 has built-in screenshot feature, but Shootme is a lot easier when taking multiple/quick screenshots. Anyone have any suggestions of how to fix this, or know of any good alternatives?

Sent from my Samsung Legen-wait for it-dary! 4g
Can someone mod shootme so that we can get a better framerate on the screencast feature. Just to let you know a Dev already did this but his modded apk is no longer available in his thread( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925270 ). Also know that the higher the framerate, the crappier the quality of video. Here are the steps if anyone can do it:
just decompile the app with ApkManager or other and ajust the values in /res/values/array.xml
I would do it myself but I don't have good luck with ApkManager

This is happening to me as well. I noticed that it started to happen with version 3.7.11 of the Play Store and it still happens with 3.7.13. It will also work if you downgrade to an older version of the Play Store, but it will eventually update itself back to 3.7. There is another thread on the Q&A section about it as well, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750823.

Just woke up this morning and have the same problem, last night everything worked and now not anymore :/
Same issue still occurring today...
Few days passed, still no fix ?
My temporary fix is uninstall updates and download 1-3 apps fast then it gets updated again :/
Same here. Also since the update, app preview pics that are in landscape format (Angry Birds for example) only display in portrait format... can anyone else please confirm or deny this?
