New market app installation unsuccessful

[Tone_Capone]

Has anyone gotten the new market app to install on a rooted DX? I have been reading that most of us running either Liberty or Apex cannot update the apk through a file manager. If someone has gotten this to work, can you please share instructions on how to install the new market?

Thanks in advance!

Yes it does work, thank you cheese. It is gona take some getting used to with this new market look. I can see why people think "windows" when they see the layout and compare it to a ui windows phone.
Now Im gona see if the movie I rent for 4 dollars will play. If so, you can EAT IT Netflix. You wont let me sign up for your service, I'll just grab somethin from the Android Market selection instead!

I'm really liking this. As for the movies, I'm sure someone will have a workaround (hopefully) soon.

Work around on the way?

This has been defeated already. Rooted users have a fix now I'll find the link now.

OK something must of happened cause they blocked the video. I watched it yesteday. They loaded a market video running cm7.

So then it shouldnt be too long before the link to the fix appears. I will keep looking myself.

Update...guess this is all we need to watch videos we buy from the Market. Unless your rooted of course as this new player will tell you. Seems to be an updated Google Videos player different than the video player in our ROMs...https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.videos&feature=search_result

So Im sure there will be a .zip fix soon enough. I know Babalu, but as my sig says, I'll try anything to see if it works,lol.

So what's the work around for rooted phones? or did I miss it somewhere?

Read this article. Informative, honest and welcoming. And hopeful since it says the crack has been done, it just needs to be compiled for all of us that are rooted by device. Samsung is it so far.

Also I went to my Youtube page on my laptop and when it loaded the first message I saw was, Dont forget to watch the movie you rented, The Dark Knight. So if it wont work on my phone, and I have my laptop around I can see it there.
