So looks like Google is replacing Android Market with Play Store. Weird name for an app store.

One company, one store: Why Google axed Android Market for Google Play

The Google Market app no longer works & is removed from the phone.

Has anyone else got this update?

My market was automatically updated to Google play. Google market is no longer there. I bought a music album(20 new songs) for $0.25 and a Golf Extreme full game for $0.25 as a part of Google Play promotion. As discussed before, it is not only a market to purchase, its has inbuilt app to listen/watch/read. An all in one store. I listened to music as soon as i bought it without going to media player or google music to play it. Pretty nifty i would say.

Do take advantage of their 7 day promotion(now 5 days) and get some neat apps, music and movies for as low as 25 cents. Today's movie for rent is Vicki, Cristina Barcelona, a puzzle (Quell Reflect) and Own the Night album by Lady Antebellum. Apart from these, there are some games(eg: NFS HP, Asphalt6) and apps(eg: Soundhound, Biz Calender) for 49 cents.

Any update on the Mac software for Samsung Androids?
I am really keen on getting one, but I need something that I can sync and update through the Mac.

Hello Friends,
I need your help if a weird issue I'm facing with an App issue. I downloaded and installed an app directly from an APK. This is a paid App and wanted to try it before buying it. I know i could return it and get my money back, but found the APK easily so installed it instead.
The issue is that when I remove the App from the Settings->Applications, the App still shows as Purchased in the Google Play Store. If i try to install, I get Signature error saying that I haven't purchased it. When I install it back, the GPS (Google Play Store) detects that it is installed, but Updates fail saying that I haven't purchased it.

Can anyone tell me how to get GPS to see that I have removed it and now want to purchase it??

P.S: I tried logging into GPS from the PC and after linking my account it still says that the App is 'Purchased'.

How do you get the Google play store on a rooted galaxy s running custom ROM? Does it change automatically or you need to download it from somewhere?

Market got updated to Play Store by itself on my rooted Xperia Neo V with stock ROM. However that didn't happen on my wife's Blade running CM7.

I think rooting doesn't affect the ability to receive those updates as long as you run on stock ROM. The problem happens when you are on a custom ROM.

Now how do we get over it? Is there a .apk file available for the play store on the net?

I don't think so.

When I opened Market y'day to download an app, the Market automatically changed to Google Play Store. My LG P500 is running on PerfectPeso v2.2 :thumbs up

You may try rebooting your phone and then opening the market, to see if it works or not. :)

Exactly, I run custom firmware (MIUI) and Market automatically changes to Play Store yesterday. No issues whatsoever.

Brilliant. After HTC its good to see Samsung following the suit soon after. However I am worried about one thing. Will the G version get ICS at the same time like ohers or will it even get it? Since samsung is selling the g version by the name of S2 only I do not think they will refuse ICS to the g version users. I just hope Samsung will take care of us.

"Android Market is upgradingto..."

Translation: "We changed it. We have to use a positive but irrelevant word."

My market has been re christened too!! But I'm rather disappointed to see that nothing has changed but the name. Anyways.... thank you all... Guys!!

Update: Samsung confirmed on their twitter account that rumours of S2 getting ICS on March 10 is false. I guess we will have to wait a bit more. But I am getting a feeling that the update is just around the corner.
