[Q] can't see lcd density changer in market. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can some kind soul help me out here? I recently installed a new rom from docs kitchen and now some apps are not appearing in the market. I'm trying to find lcd density changer app. The free one is included in the custom rom but I want the paid version and the link in the app opens the market only for it to tell me that the app can't be found. Anyone else had this problem before? If so how was it fixed?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the link but it doesnt really help as you cant install from appbrain. After syncing with appbrain on my phone and cliocking on install I am taken to the market where the app cannot be found.
Is it possible the app is restricted by region? i.e. not available in the UK?

you can use SGS Tools and edit it with the .prop editor (edit build.prop)
and it's free :bigthumb:

I have discovered that the other day.thanks though.

The android market on your phone has it all. What are you looking for that is not there?
You are not suggesting cracked apps are you?

Is there a site where you can download the apps via PC then push (SDK) them to your phone? Or do you have to download via phone first?

I am looking for a site to actually download the apk on the computer and not the phone. So far all the site I see only give you the option to download via phone using bar code or link.
Next question, Once an app is installed on device, are you able to pull the apk from the phone to your computer for backup?

How to Link installed apps with Market?

Hello friends!
I updated my cell from froyo to Gingerbread as then restored all my apps with help of Titanium backup pro. Problem is that now all my apps some how got unlinked with the Market and when I go to my apps in Market, none of my apps are shown in the list. Because of this I dont come to know if there are any updates available for any of my installed apps.
Is there any way to link them back with Market without installing them all over again.
Thankyou.

Try going to settings>application>manage applications and clearing data/cache or whatever it lets you clear of the market app.
Go to titanium backup>options> more>market doctor.. Since you are on pro titanium backup you can use market doctor..

@EPHRAIM033 Does that mean I can link a app downloaded via .apk to the market? And, yes, the app is also in the market..Can I do it or no?
this worked only once.. later again those apps lost the links i think.. they are not appearing in 'my apps' on market!!!!!!!!!

what worked for me was to re download the app from the market on wifi. it will error out with the message already installed then will show up as installed in google play.
An easy way of pushing the apps to the phone is to log onto googleplay web site reselect the app and select install.

Of course you can. But if the linked app is a cracked paid one(ore a free app from an other market eg getjar wich is free there) the market will show it in my apps but it won't let you update it... If the app is avaiable for free in the market and you donwloaded it else where there are no problems with linking and updating it..(and no i dont have illegal apps i know it cause the "gold apps" from getjar are not updatable after linking them to the market, it'll show you a message that you didn't purchase the app..)

Android market on I9023

Hi all,
About a month ago i bought my nexus s and i am very happy with it.
But i do have a problem. It seems to be stuck on market version 2.3.6 while a new version is available for weeks now.
I want to update it and i have tried everything google advices on their site but with no luck. Since i am not a fan of rooting and installing non official stuff i am kind of stuck.
Does anyone know a way to get the latest version without rooting?
Thnx,
Pele

Just download the apk and execute it on the phone?
Search the forum for new market...download n push it into sdcard n install it....b4 use apps like system app remover (for non root) to remove old market....

You don't need to remove the old market, just download the apk and run/install it. Simple.
Thanx everyone, i found and installed the new market app.
But still i am wondering why google didnt push it to my nexus. They are trying to stop fragmentation but arent even distributing their own software properly.

have you tried market 3.4.4? rocket rom's thread has the link to this i think
also recommended for you to have market enabler installed to fake your market locale
You can download the market 2.4.4 from Android Police's site, that's what I use. If it doesn't work, you may need to root your phone, but let's see what the rest say first.
This is strange. Why wouldn't a google phone come without the market? are you sure you have an original device and not a replica?

i had this same problem when i bought my galaxy s2 from dubai.. i didnt have the android market but had the slide me market instead... you can get the market back by changing the csc... dial *#272*imei number of ur phone#... and change it to somethin else.. i gues its xeu.... u will wipe your phone when u do this.. hope it helps..

china isn't exactly best friends with Google.
Yup, and i guess China won't put Market on devices sold there since they can't control the content.
