Update your Android Market

I updated my market some some month ago to get the latest app updates. This didn't happen automatically so I downloaded the Vending.apk


Before you begin, be aware that you might break something and that it is not my fault if you do so.


First, connect your phone to your PC, start a command line windows and upload your new Venending.apk
cd ./plattform-tools/
adb -d push  Vending_2_1_1.apk /sdcard/Vending.apk
adb -d shell

Then remount your system (please check for appropriate /dev fist)
su
cat /porc/mounts
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app/
mv Vending.apk Vending.apkold
cp /sdcard/Vending.apk .

strg-c

Please restart your phone now
