I wrote to the Android Market Team about that install and got this reply




Thanks for writing back. I cannot approve these steps, but you may try
them at your own risk. I cannot speak to the integrity of any versions of
the Android Market app that are available for download from the internet.


We're still looking into a long-term solution and hope to have a
resolution forthcoming. Hold tight. We're working on it!

I encountered the same problem. Is it the Market app that manages updates of all applications (including itself)? In that case we seem to have ended up in a catch 22 and a manual update is the only way to go even if I'm not comfortable downloading apps from a random source. Am I right? -A

Yes! I finally found a solution after much frustration. This is what I did:

On your Tablet
1. Manually download the latest android market by going to
[Download] Updated Android Market v3.3.12
2. Click on "Multiupload mirror"
3. Click on "Direct Download" next to Multiupload
4. When the file completes download, open it and install it by clicking on the down arrow in the bottom right
5. It will ask you to install over, agree to it
6. That is all! The new and fully functional android market will work. If you open the older icon, it may come up with the error again, but then as soon as you click OK, it will show "market updated successfully" in the corner. I'm guessing this is what was supposed to happen at the beginning but google effed something up along the way.

Good luck!

Thanks for these instructions. I wish Google would just provided these steps in their Known Issues page since the "work around" that they provide simply doesn't work. The new Market app worked perfectly for me on my Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet. One thing I wanted to note is this new Market app has a new (and slightly different) ICON so the old one won't work anymore. If you had a Market ICON on a home screen, you'll need to remove the old ICON and add the new market ICON.

I had the exact same problem but it seemed to fix it when I connected it to my computer and synced it with the Samsung Kies program.
Try and see how it goes.
Hope this helps.
