My wife's Evo has it but I do not, not sure of the rhyme or reason other than she's still running 2.2 (froyo) as I am on 2.3 (Gingerbread)

Try going to settings.... Aplications.... Manage Aplications and find the market..... Once there force stop it and when you open it agIn you should see the new market.... But if that don't work go back and clear the data and force stop it

Anyone's android market look like this ??

LoveMyPhone · Aug 10, 2011

Yes. I was checking on something last night and when I opened Market it looked like that!

TonyTone301 · Aug 10, 2011

friend of mine said hers has been like that for a week mine just changed 20 mins ago

That is the new market. It's being updated in "waves".

TonyTone301 · Aug 11, 2011

im not sure how i feel about it .. as of right now i don't like it i like the old one better

I cannot stress how HORRIBLE the new Market is. First off, they have removed the setting that allows you to toggle on/off the notifications in Market. I have several applications that I refuse to update for various reasons. This new market harasses me every hour by sending me a notification telling me there are updates available. I want to throw my phone through the wall each time!!!! If you uninstall the updates, the stupid marketupdater re-downloads the new market within five minutes!!!!

The only workaround I have found is that after I update the apps that I do want to update, I go into application settings, then to market. I uninstall updates, then clear the cache and settings. The next time you enter market, it asks you to accept the terms and conditions. If you decline, market is not active, thus you are spared from the constant update notifications!!! I just pray that they restore the toggle feature soon. What I want to know is, why was it taken away in this version of market???

I still have the "old" market, but having issues. When I open market, the main screen says "no matching content in Android Market". I then go to Apps, All Applications. In Top Paid, I only get about 20 in the list. In Top Free, I get the "no matching content in Android Market". I get that same message in all of the categories for Games. Anyone else seeing this? Also, if I search for apps, if it's a general search like "Alarm", I only get 3 - 5 returns for the search. If I search specific apps such as Beautiful Widgets, it's hit and miss. Some show up, others I get the no content message. :thinking:

maybe try clear cache, force stop.

Yup, tried several times. Thank you. Guess I will just wait for the update on my phone and go to the market online.

trust me its nothing to wait for .. it sucks id rather have the old market back then this new crap

theputterman · Aug 12, 2011

Thanks guys for the insight. I still don't have the new market, and after hearing all the trouble it's been giving some people I might not want it any ways. I kept getting the same "no matching content in Android Market" as well. That's why I was looking to see if Evo got the new market update.

I was forced to do a factory reset

. First one since I got it last OCT. I still have the old market on there, but now it seems to work. :eek:

. Lets try to keep this thread going, I like the look of the new market ( my father in law has the Thunderbolt with the new market on it.), lets just hope they keep up on the bug fixes as well as roll outs.

If anyone has any new info, please chime in here.

I've had it for about 2 weeks. Not a fan. I see some huge ads all the time now (they load before any content for me...). And does anyone really buy movies through the market?

s_special · Aug 13, 2011

If those movies were 1$ 24hr rentals i would just cancel my Netflix

Do you know if it's actually performing 'better' or do you believe the bigger version # must mean it's better?

ebc1973 · Aug 16, 2011

I envy you. I would pay good money to revert back to the old market. Consider yourself lucky, and immediately cease from trying to get it to update!

9to5cynic · Aug 16, 2011

Maybe it's just me (and I know the market search feature isn't quite up on par...) but does the new market search worse for anyone esle? I seached "ad free" and the Ad-Free app was on page two, after the Facebook app, and the FB Message app.

i can't stand it id rather have the old version back

9to5cynic · Aug 17, 2011

Yeah, I'm not sold on it either. It doesn't seem optimized for handhelds. I imagine that on a tab it's much nicer. On evos, The app title, icon, and download progress takes up about a third of the screen real estate. That's too much in my opinion. Makes reading reviews a bit more of a pain.
