(Update: Download it NOW!) New Look for Android Market Coming Soon

[curlysgirly]

I quit using this a few days after installing it and reverted back to the old one. NOW that it rolled out to everyone I'm stuck with it. It's terrible. Can't sort reviews by date and it shows random apps that "need" to be updated but when you click it no update is there and only gives the option to open or uninstall. Also, can't select specific apps to bulk update. This is a serious fail. Sure, I can go to the web page on my laptop but I have a smartphone to do things ON my smartphone. Major fix needed here!

If you are rooted, you can pull an earlier vending.apk from the ROM your running and replace the new market vending.apk with it. Works like a champ. I too hate the new market and have replaced it with the older one.

Or you might be able to just use the uninstall updates option in app management

I'm not rooted (gasp!). From what I've read on other sites/posts even if you revert back to the original the new market keeps coming back. Isn't there a cream or antibiotic for that?? I didn't see anything in the Google Market dev site even addressing a fix to this. Who thought this was a good idea?? LOL

That would be a problem lol...however I'm sure they'll iron out the bugs and push out a fixed market update eventually

I want to do it BUT my phone is super stable right now. I have never (knock on wood) had the problems that other TB users have. 4g is sweet and my battery isn't perfect but I've been an early phone adopter for 20 years now and have learned to plug my phone in and carry spares Plus I have this major issue with following directions and my mind wanders off usually by step 2 Haha

Ditto ! :laugh: As if I wrote it.

Don't like the interface. Too much real estate taken up by ads for movies, etc. Since it is pushed out, cannot revert to older version and stay there.
Very disappointed. As a result, will not use it, so, developers, you are loosing potential customers if a lot of people take this route.
