Market problems

[Guest lemmyc]

Seems like quite a few people are having problems accessing some apps on the Market, including me.

I have tried using the US setting on MarketEnabler, and have also tried Eris Market Fix. Neither solved the problem for me.

Some of the apps I can't see in the Market:

Google Earth

Google Goggles

Evernote

Swype

Can anyone see these in the Market?

According to this blog post app compatibility is set in each app's manifest file. What is it about these apps that isn't compatible with this ROM? (Or is it just me :( )

This has to do with copy protection on certain applications in the market. If the phone you're using has a new(ish) firmware, google won't allow it to see or download copy protected apps, supposedly to stop people with hacked firmwares releasing the package apk's. Since we're pretty much all running the new 2.1, we can't see these apps yet...hopefully google will update the market soon! I suspect this may even be part of the reason t-mobile uk isn't releasing 2.1 yet :/

So in that case it should be possible to spoof the OS version when surfing the market, and that should solve the problem?
