New Android Market

---

There's a new market app floating around version 3.4.4. So far it looks identical to the previous editions that sport the tiles but it has definitely been given a huge speed increase. It's lightning fast, check it out.

To install in root explorer backup previous Vending.apk to something like Vending.apk.back

Copy new market to system/app and rename it to "Vending.apk" if it isn't already and set permissions to rw, r, r, and reboot


Edit, if you wanted to do it in ADB.

adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app
mv Vending.apk Vending.apk.bak (backs up old market just in case)
exit
rename your file Vending.apk in Explorer
adb push Vending.apk /system/app/Vending.apk
adb shell
su
cd /system/app
chmod 644 Vending.apk
reboot

Thanks man! It does seem a bit faster!

Yeah def a little faster. Thanks!

I don't notice any speed difference, but I appreciate your effort none the less.

Have to admit it's faster!
Thanks!!!

Definetely faster, like it alot.

Ya, It's faster. Looks about the same otherwise. Thanks for the upload. I remember when this new version of Market came out, it was sooooo slow. Got better after a few weeks, but it took em a while. This is a nice improvement too.

Ab

My Market was already pretty fast to begin with, but this update does seem slightly faster. I might just be imagining it. Thanks for the upload!

It does feels faster on my old Hero, thanks!
