I noticed this problem when the new Droid Eris came out. At first, i
started messing with minsdk and even lowered it to 2 but that didnt
fix it, the apps didnt show up in the market. I ran through Verizon
and Sprint stores for days to try to get this to work.
I dont think Google people even know the problem exist. I am surprised
that this problem hasnt been fixed for such a long time now. Anyway,
the reason why you can 't see your app on HTC Hero/Eris or any other
1.5 phones is because you have copy protection set to On. You can
turn this off in your developer console when logged in to your Android
Market account and editing your application description/title
cheers!

Indeed this is very strange. As I understand it, all Android 1.6 apps
should by default be visible to HTC Tattoo on the Android Market, and
use of the camera should not matter. I had even tested my app to show
OK on a 240x320 screen using the emulator, and cannot think of
anything else to correct. I was thinking of trying an empty supports-
screens element in case documentation is ambiguous, but even so it
would not seem to make sense to have the CAMERA dependency. Hopefully
HTC or Android developers (Romain?) will figure it out soon, because
this kind of market fragmentation seems unnecessary.

Hi Blindfold,
We were not able to find The vOICE for Android in the Market on the
Tattoo. But we found it on the HTC Magic in the Market.
Hope there will be a solution for this issue soon.

OK, I didn't know that. My curiosity was triggered by Phil with the
suggested role of the CAMERA permission in having apps be visible on
the Market, which AFAIK should not have made any difference. Also,
android:minSdkVersion=4 (Android 1.6) according to documentation
implies that all screensizes are assumed supported:
http://d.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.htmlIf
android:minSdkVersion or android:targetSdkVersion is 4 (Android 1.6)
or higher, the default value for everything is true.
So I expected that basically only visibility of (unadapted for
screensize) Android 1.5 apps on the Market would be affected, without
any role for android.permission.CAMERA, and I would otherwise be
surprised.
BTW, lots of HTC Tattoo buyers seem annoyed, judging fromhttp://
androinica.com/2009/10/11/htc-tattoos-android-market-will-not-...
where it is stated that even Google's own Listen, My Tracks and
Sky Map are (were?) not visible on Android Market for users of the
HTC Tattoo.

Hi Blindfold,
Sorry I dont have a HTC Tattoo to test :( Thats our problem...some
users
reported that they couldnt find our app on Market with their Tattoo.
But we
have no idea why?
To Edward:
HTC Tattoo has a camera, so that cannot be the reason our apps are
not
showing.
What to do? :D
Cheers

Oh, and more importantly, the Android market should have a tool
that
allows developers to get a list of devices that their application
won't be shown for, and why.
