Hello Friends
I don't know if someone already posted this. But I did it myself so m posting here.
First of all to get back old market you need root access on your phone. After that an app that can control system apps like link2sd or SD maid etc. Using that app find an app named "market updater". Freeze that app. Then uninstall updates of Google Play Store (updates only). That's it , now start using old Google market
If you wants to get back to Google Play Store just unfreeze the market updater app n update the market.

I can tell you why I do it on my ROMs: speed!
The older Google Markets are objectively faster than the new. Time it and see for yourself.

Your welcome Dr. globbyglob
Before rooting my wfs when ever I open the play store and look around for any app, for many of times it shows network error, I don't know why it was happening and it also take too much time to load an app info. I have read many times on xda that old market is working good then new one so that's why I did it

i had that same problem but solved it by uninstalling google maps then installing it from the market
I installed it without any problems. If you have issues installing the 4.4.0 update, first uninstall Google Maps and then install it from the Market application.

Installed just fine for me on my Desire using the update option from the market.

yeah same here no issues but in order for places to showup in programs u need to restart.
I noticed lattitude has also made an appearance on the menu too.
I think they need to update the Places app though. By clicking on "Gas Stations", i am given results for companies that sell bottled gas, not petrol or diesel. By clicking on ATMs, i am given a recovery company 20 miles from me, not cash machines.
I had no problems installing on Froyo/Sense MCR6.

Dave
Why I don't see the Places app?

Turn the phone off and on again then check the menu and "Places" will be listed in with the rest of your apps.

Speed fix for Froyo Roms on MARKET
After playing with alot of Roms one thing i noticed is the incredible slow speed of market loads and searching. LeeDROID rom has excellent market speeds. The attached file is a grab of Market files from the LeeDROID rom and then packaged up to flash.
This has been tried on multiple roms and gives EXCELLENT SPEED WITH LOADING, SEARCHING and even DOWNLOADING. It is also know to give you back that illusive PAID TAB in some instances (has worked for me every time)
Give it a go and let us know what you think. Countrys with no paid apps may not add the paid tab.
Also once rebooted it may take half hour to sync up with Google before you notice the speed. But once its going it is alot faster
ENJOY!!
Install - Flash zip from Recovery or ROM Manager
of course always nandroid first before flashing anything.
I take no responsability for bricks
Big thanks to LeeDroid (and congrats on the new baby) and also dancedreamfly for helping with packaging

any feedback if people are noticing the speed difference here
Does it actually remove the Market or can it work alongside (for comaprison purposes it would be useful to download the same app within each)

it replaces it, could nandroid and compare your two different roms, but if you was suffering from slow market you will notice the speed anyway
Anyone tried this?

i couldnt tell you, i have only ever tried on Sense Roms, Previous users have told me it worked on non sense roms such as Defrost so I should imagine it would work fine as it doesnt edit any of the framework of the rom.
Ill try it tonight and see but if you wanna have a go nandroid it first and let me know the results
what's the MACOSX folder?
No paid apps on djdroid.UK network..but its super fast and is now giving me the option to auto update my apps

A store where u can get apps n themes for rooted htc evo...sorry if this quest. was already asked
Sent from my HTC EVO 4G
There is no seperate "app store" like this for Android. Google allows apps that require root in the Market with everything else.
Just search for "root" on the android market. A bunch of root only apps will come up.
Be extremely careful when downloading apps which require root access on your phone! They can bypass normal app permissions and do all kinds of crazy things to your phone without you knowing.
Themes for Android itself cannot be found in the Market due to the fact that a theme must either be custom-made for your ROM and device, or use something like the T-Mobile/CyanogenMod 7 theme engine. Apps such as ADW do have themes in the Android Market which you can use.
You should also not use third-party Markets, as most Android malware/trojans are spread via such Markets (if not downloaded from pirate sites, of course) which have little to no oversight compared to the Android Market.

Seems like no one yet, i tried googling, but nothing came up (though it was a fast search only), But i suggest like they others to search for root in Market, and you will find a bunch

applanet is for piracy, not off-market apps. and is not reccomended.
appbrain is just the market in a different form.
android market is the place to be. it is like appstore AND cydia in one place.
use appbrain,
but i always find anything in the built-in market though
note : applanet and blapkmarket is for pirated app!!!

It says this under the video, not sure if you read the whole thing...
The new Android Market will be rolling out in the coming weeks to Android 2.2 and higher phones around the world. You don’t need to do anything - the update is automatic on supported phones. If you’re in the U.S., you’ll also be able to download the Videos app, rent movies, and buy books once you receive the new Android Market.

With an app called Lucky Patcher, you can patch the Play Store, so that any app is compatible.
Google it.
