I can't see airport mania: first flight .

There are other markets, as well as the appslib market.

For those who can't get appslib to work, visit the appslib.com website for the latest version and it should work.

There's also the Slideme market.

As for Arcmedia, I sideloaded it by extracting the .apk from my Motorola Droid's system app folder and putting it on my sd card.

That is true, I still had to sideload arcmedia myself.

If the moderators wish to rename /y thread I would not be offended.

What is "sideload?"

[gurgle]

Sideloading is taking the .apk file and placing it on a SD or MicroSD card and installing it directly. You get the apk file like Bilgediver states or finding it on the Internet.

Edit: I neglected to tell you I used this Google Market hack. After a reboot I ended up with the latest version of Android market
Downloads - archos-apps-installer - Project Hosting on Google Code




However once you do that, only some of the apps appear.



Try searching for Copilot, Titanium Backup, or even any of the Home Replacements, like ADW Launcher or Launcherpro, nothing appears.
Here's a fix:

Go to your Application settings > Manage Applications > Running Tab
Find Market > Force Stop then Clear Cache (Do NOT press clear data)
Find Google Services > Clear Data then Force Stop
If you try to run Market now you will get a data connection error.
Reboot

Now you will see EVERYTHING on the market.
To test, do a search for Copilot, ADW Launcher, Launcherpro or Titanium Backup.

It worked great on my Archos 70 250GB Internet Tablet.

great fix, worked like a charm thanks

After the market fix has been applied, I see most applications but not all. From my experience on the DroidX, this is usually an issue with the build.prop not reporting a valid ROM to google.
For example, I can search on my DX for "wii controller ime" and find the app. My Archos 101 does not.

I found a better way, there is an app called marketenabler I had when I flashed ultimatedroid on my nookcolor.

I put it on my Archos, spoofed a Verizon device and it actually enabled all apps on my Archos no problem.

It DOES require Root, though (I think).
