Hi everyone
I am the proud owner of a HTC Desire, no problems. However i have just bought my wife a HTC Wildfire. The problem i have found is concerning Android Market, apps that i have downloaded onto my desire do not seem to be on my wifes market. They are both the same version 2.3.3. Anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks Martyn.
 
I think its to do with screen resolution. wildfire has a low resolution so many apps won't run on it, sorry.
Only apps that will run show up in the market place I believe. Long and short, there is not anything you can do.
 
+1 on that ^.

Going from Eris to Fascinate I noticed that several apps were not even available for the Fascinate, which surprised me being as how it was an upgrade in screen resolution.
 
Yes the market only shows apps shown that support the resolution of the screen of the phone you are using. So many apps aren't updated yet for the wildfire's smaller screen and hence won't show up.
