App shows in Android market but not Nexus market

The app titled: "Scriptures (beta)" shows up in my G1's market, but does not in my Nexus' market.

Any ideas what's going on?

Did you do any of the following to your Nexus One:

1. Unlocked bootloader?
2. Enable root?

If so, "Scriptures (Beta)" is a *protected* Android application and will not show up.

If not, then it's a OS "support" version issue.

Cheers,

My new N1 is not unlocked/rooted, but my old G1 *is*. But it's the G1 that sees the app fine, and the new N1 does not.

Must be an OS support issue.

I downloaded the app directly from the author's website and it works fine.

Yup. If that's the case, the author needs to fix it and update it on Android Market.

It's annoying for us developers and the damn manifest and API target/limits when "new" stuff comes out... *Sigh*

Anyrate, good deal you got around it!

application compatibility
Your phone is listed as a 2.1 device in the market, and if the apps don't specify compatibility (they introduced a compatibility layer in 2.0.1) then they won't show up since they won't work anyway (well, they might, but the general assumption is that they won't)

I guess that explains why AppManager Pro isn't showing up for me on my N1. Annoying. I love that app.

This explains why, when people were talking about Nexus One Torch and I decided to see what it was, my G1 couldn't see it. Now I have a Nexus I can (and it's good

)

There are some errors I think, because I want Bonsai Blast which I think I remember was demo'd by the Bonsai Blast google developer for either droid or 2.1. I think it was a demo for the new resolution, so I know it can't be that, and I don't think a google Dev would forget to update his extremely popular app.
