Yes, I just tried it. It works! and it fixes the button problem in 2.2.6.

I first tried one that did not work, but I've attached the one I did get to work. Just copy into /system/app, rename to Vending.apk, and change permissions.

Enjoy!

Would this work ?

adb shell mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
adb shell cp /system/app/Vending.apk /system/app/oldVending.apk
adb push Vending.apk /system/app
adb reboot

Or, you can just download and install it like any other apply. It'll install over the old Market no problem. It Indore you that it's a system apply, but works anyway.

Anyone have the old Market (Vending.apk)? I stupidly replaced it with the above and broke it. Much obliged.

Kept getting error message about cp: not found
Skipped the renaming step and it worked perfect, rejected both drives first and it worked like a charm.

FW 1.0.0 / Launcherpro

Took the plunge... did it from the APK. Works.

The scrolling issue when you had to flip the NC in landscape is gone. But I find it a royal pain to switch between Paid, Free and Just In. For some reason the oval overlay trasfers the click on the app below and I end up opening that instead. I found that switching requires a rather precise click... something to think about Mr. Sergei. Well... maybe not for us free spirits :)

EDIT: ROFL! redid the process and rebooted after double checking permissions, works fine now
