i still dont have the new market is it because i have a coustom rom is not how long will i take google to push it to every phone???
 
I've got a custom ROM and I've got it already, I've had it for a while actually. I still had it when I switched ROMs too. I wish I didn't switch now though, the new one doesn't like my phone.

I'm running 2.2 now but I think I was on 2.1 before I switched ROMs. My friends have been on 2.2 longer than me but they still don't have it. Not sure why sorry.
 
you can download the new market , delete the old vending apk and put the new apk back into system/app
 
Tbh you're not missing anything. The 'new look' is okay on a 3.7" (or larger) display but I prefer the 'old' one on the Hero as it's more space-efficient. Hopefully mine will never update itself. :)

Plus I'd much rather have the 24 hour return period than the 15 minutes the new market gives you.

Still aghast at this. I know some developers were getting screwed because people were using their app for a day then getting a refund, but... 15 minutes? Sure thats enough time to figure out that a fart app isnt really worth
 
15 minute refund time?! Wow. I guess it's because of the raft of trial versions that are available, meaning you should be able to test pretty much all the features by the time you decide to buy the app.

Maybe they should scale the refund times based on the price though. So anything under
 
The new market is a tad slower as well, I flashed tasty froyo and I liked that it had the old market but it was a bit buggy so I went back to VR12 which brought me back to new market V_V

Not all apps have trial versions though, e.g. copilot live. I probably wouldnt have splashed out 25 quid on it if i hadnt known i could get a refund after trying out on a proper journey. So, yeah, this could be actually hurting developers.

And of course 15 mins is still long enough for the morally challenged among us to back up the app and get a refund.
