Beth, Thanks a lot for the info. At one point I tried installing from Gmail. I'm sure I was reading the thread you mentioned.
I fixed this, but I am not sure which actions corrected the problem. Here are some of the things I did. - Removed app from phone using adb: adb uninstall <package name> - Update these values in Android Manifest file android:versionCode="4" android:versionName="1.02"> - Removed an icon in drawable that was not being used - Created APK with same key, but new filename from myapp.apk to myapp3.apk - Updated app in marketplace (upload/update) Someone suggested that I hit this bug: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=830 The bug refers to issues with multiple icons in the manifest file. Since one of my actions was to remove an unused icon, I think this might have been the issue.
