[Q] Problem with Fast Web Installer and Appbrain on Froyo

Is anyone having problems with getting Appbrain and the Fast Web Installer to work on their Captivates with Froyo? And yes, I have installed the Fast Web Install app and activated it on my Cappy. If I am on my PC and I try to install an app from the internet, I get this error message:
"Fast Web Install is not available for your phone due to a bug in the Android Operating System"
AlsoI noticed sometimes if I download something directly from the Android Market, it says it is downloading but it will not do anything. Other times, it works just fine so I'm kind of confused. Anyone else notice anything? I did not have any problems with Eclair.
Also, I wonder if it was something to do with the fact that I used Titanium Backup to restore apps + data. I did not however restore any of the system data, just the app data. I have already reinstalled both the Appbrain and Fast Web Install app.
Just to update: The problem I am also having is that something will download completely as well but it will not install. It shows that it is fully downloaded but won't install. Any suggestions?

I'm having problems with appbrain as well. I had 2.1 unmodified, did the 2.2 flash and can't send installs from the appbrain web site to my mobile.

Just encountered this problem with app brain as well. I also have occasional weird frozen installs from market, have to restart those. wonder if we missed something.

I had the market force close on me earlier when I was loading a bunch of applications. Not all at the same time either.

Problem with Fast Web Installer and Appbrain on FroyoArrow
Only issue I had was my app lists were not syncing after I updated to the new 2.2 leak. I had to delete my appbrain account online, uninstall the app from the phone. Then sign back up for a new appbrain account and reinstall the app. Seems to be ok now.

I have the same problem.
I try to delete the account and sign up again.
Deleted both application in the phone, and reinstall.
I can send text and url's to the phone just fine.
uninstall seems to work too.
But automatic instalation does not.
What could i try to solve this?
(yes its on froyo)

After reading extensively on the Cognition thread, I found out that the reason the Fast Web Installer does not work is that since we are running a leaked build of froyo, everyone has the same Android device ID.

After following these steps, I was able to get Fast Web Installer to work. Hope that helps.

How did you install sqlite3 on the device?
Its not in mine..

Thanks howsleyd!
I ended up copying the db into my desktop and modifing it there.
I actually has a android_id code setted up. So i modified it and invented a new.
Now Fast install works fine.
Thanks!

Fast Web Installer not working for me either after 9.1
I downloaded Android ID Changer and changed a few numbers and changed it.... reboot and everything is good with Appbrain and the market

[Q] How to manually update Market app?

Turned my phone on today and found that there were only my paid apps listed in "My Downloads" and none of the free apps I'd downloaded, did some searching and found the fix, which was to find an already installed free app, uninstall it via Market then reinstall. All my free apps returned to their rightful spot in "My Downloads".
Unfortunately before I had found that solution I did the usual troubleshooting of clearing the cache and data for the Market app itself.
Problem is that now the Market app won't update itself to the newest version (newest version has the "Update Automatically" checkbox for apps that I very much want back). Previously I'd cleared the data for the Market app and it had updated itself back to the newest version no problems, but for some reason this time it's not doing it.
Apparently the Market app updates itself if you open the Market, hit the Home key and then wait 10 minutes, but it's just not doing it for some reason. I've tried a number of combinations of reboots, clearing cache, force closing the Market app etc. etc. but have had no luck. I've found a few vending.apk files on the net including a few here on XDA but none of them seem valid as Package Installer doesn't recognize them as a valid apk.
Any suggestions? Milestone running stock 2.1update1, rooted.

I wanna update manually too, if it's possible?
I'm still on 1.82...

i don't know why. from China to help you up.

Users still looking for a way to manually install the market update should checkout this article h t t p://eugeneorourke.com/go/1369. It gives steps on how to update the market through recovery mode that worked well for me.

[Q] Market does not reflect installed apps after Titanium restore

I recently installed CM7 and restored my apps using Titanium Backup (premium). Most of the apps do not show up in Market->My Apps as Installed. Some of them appear after I have upgraded them using App Brain.
I have tried wiping the phone and starting from scratch, clearing data on Market and on Google Framework, running Fix Permissions in Rom Manager, running Market Doctor in Titanium Backup.
The only thing I haven't tried is wiping and letting Android re-download all the apps. I don't want to do this until I've exhausted all other options.
This started about a week ago (around the time the web market was released). I'm not sure about the exact date (whether it was when I installed CM7, upgraded to #36, or when the market was released).

Bumping. Still having this problem.

If you search for an app that's installed (but not in My Apps), does the Market show it as installed?
You can try using Titanium to restore Market links for apps that are missing, so that'd be worth a go.
Must admit though, whenever my Market isn't showing everything, clearing it's data always sorts it.

Seeing as you've had this problem for several days, I would go ahead and fully wipe as with a little preparation, it should only take 45 minutes or so, depending on Android. Hopefully you have a stable Nandroid, restore it, then I would:
Apps that I've highly customized (ADW, LauncherPro, GentleAlarm, etc) I would export their settings using their built in Export functionality
Go ahead and fully wipe, sometimes it takes a couple wipes
Flash ROM, sign in & let Android install the apps
Restore data only using TB, toggling just the apps that absolutely need it & that didn't have built-in export functions (not ADW, LP, GA, etc). If the app doesn't have a lot of settings, avoid restoring its previous data to avoid unnecessary problems
Once the phone calms, begin importing settings that were exported

In the past when I was messing with ROMs I ran into this problem and just loaded up Appbrain and let it sync. After that the market showed my installed apps.
But as said, Titanium is supposed to be able to do this.. Although I never saw it actually work.

SOLVED
Had the same problem.
Just go to my apps->market->clear data->stop service
run again market and sign in -> voila you have all your apps listed

I think most people posting in this forum having this problem probably tried that already. ;-)

[Q] CM7 market does not show "My Apps" (fixed)

i have this weird problem:
first, i'm running CM7 from a verygreen's SD card
it was running fine but i had some force closes so i resintalled from the begining (reflashed verygreens image), then installed CM7.0.2, installed gapps, and when the market was downloading all of my apps, my system crashed down, and had to reboot.
After that, i havent been able to see my free apps in the "My Apps" tab of the market, i can see my paid apps.
tried to reflash again verygreens image to delete everything, upgraded to n59, still, only see my paid apps. tried restore them with titanium, and they restore, but the "Attach to market" option does not work for me
when i log to the web market, it shows that all my apps (free and paid) as if they were already installed
has anyone else seen this behaviour? any idea?
thanks

Not really, but you might try this... Install and run Appbrain, sync up with it, etc.. then go into the Market app.
When I was messing with ROMs a while back with apps already on my SD ext partition they'd show up to run but not in the Market, but running Appbrain always "attached" them for me. Did it several times.

Using CM7, I was experiencing the same issue, but any new app I downloaded, free or paid, would then show up in the market. I wasn't too concerned, as I only had 5 free apps from the market. Amazon Market, which is where most of my apps are, showed all without an issue.

thanks a lot, this attached all my restored apps (with TitatiumB) to the market again.
missing apps still fail to be re-downloaded, but not a problem since i have a full backup of my apps, just have to restore them and reattach with appbrain

[CM7][Fix]Had problems with CM7, here's what they were and how to fix it

I did an extensive search on this website and on Google for this subject, and never found a precise response. I eventually figured it out patching together experiences from multiple sources, but I'm sure I'm not the only one, so here is what happened and how I fixed it.
I have a Nook Color that came with the 1.2 software version. I installed CM7 following the guide on this site. I used a variety of nightly releases including 177. I reset and re-installed several versions always with the same result. CM7 would install, but with these problems:
1. On startup, I would receive the error: "android.process.media stopped unexpectedly" and "process.com.android.setting stopped unexpectedly".
2. The market would allow me to download, but the download status would just hang at 0%.
3. The Kindle app would not allow downloading with the error of "your device is not compatible"
4. CM settings cause the same errors as in point #1
The fix is simple. Clear the data and cache in various applications in settings - applications - manage applications and select all applications with the buttons at the top of the screen. You want to clear the info in certificate installer, download manager, google services framework, market, market apps installer, package installer.
I don't know why this works, but it does. I don't know if one needs to clear all of the apps that I did, but it is what worked.
Lastly, the CM settings still crash. I haven't found an answer to that yet.
Good luck!

I had the first issue's problem. I used ROM Manager to reinstall CM7, wiping all caches. It fixed the problem. Obviously it's not ideal, so thanks for posting. I'll keep it in mind if I run into the problem.
I also had force closes on Facebook and Words With Friends. I thought they were related to the original issues, but the force closes came back. Any ideas?

EW2X4 you don't say but if you are running of SD card then many cards give force closes.
Assume you aren't as you talk about using ROM manager but others with Force closes reading might be on SD so will post this
If SD card read some of the threads which recommend Sandisk class 4 or lower cards

Use CWR version 3.2.0.1 when creating the bootable image on the card. Then wipe system, data, cache and Davlik before installing. You miss one of them and you are going to get FCs. It can be found here: http://www.multiupload.com/0DLC9QATOW
