Apps not showing in Market 'my apps'

In continuation to the minor problems with my new IS, the first being Bluetooth transfers restarting the phone, (here-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1071021);
another issue am having is with respect to apps in the my apps section of market which allows updated.
Since this is a new phone, i had some apps transferred from other handsets and installed, rather than downloading them all over again.
None of the apps are showing in market to update, not a single one!
i have read about this in other posts, where clearing the cache seems to solve the problem, but it does not help in my case.
any idea why this could be happening & any possible solutions?
The only solution i think is a firmware update...

Depending on the apps, they may not be compatible with 2.2, what are they?

Regular apps like astro, angry birds, barcode scanner.
just a few off the top of my head.
the apps do work, and if there is an update available, the app prompts for the same when opened.
however, in the last tab of market, which displays all the installed apps & those which have an update, not even a single app is shown except google maps...

Are you rooted?

could you be so kind to dump your build.prop?
it sounds it got fked on some way...

@dfd9999
Nope, no root, no changes what so ever.
Stock IS
@Hawkysoft
errr... could you kindly explain how i should do that?

Titanium Back up can fix market links… but I believe you have to be rooted for it to work but I may be wrong, its worth a shot!

just uninstall the last app you got from the market.

if the method from lgm_dev is not working:
try to clear data/cache from the market. Settings->apps->manage->(tab all)-> market and clear the data there
Index should be rebuilded when it is started again.

IncS is my first Android phone and i have just got Root access. But after i flashed a new Rom and log on to Android Market with my Google account, there is only the apps i have paied for, and not all the free apps i have downloaded befor the flash.
Is it realy only the paied apps it rembers?

[GUIDE] [UPDATED] How to remove Google Play and get the old Market back!

You don't like the new, slower Google Play Marketplace?
Do you want the older, faster Android Marketplace?
Well let's get started!
Actually, this solution exists for a pretty long time already, and I couldn't find a guide on XDA so I made one myself
It's very easy, actually. You have to follow these simple steps:
1. Make sure Google Play is not running in background. If so, kill it with task manager.
2. Download App Quarantine ROOT/FREEZE from HERE (Play Store)
3. Disconnect from the internet (Disable 3G/4G/WiFi) and go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Play Store > Uninstall Updates / Clear Cache
4. Open up App Quarantine and freeze the Market Updater. (You may want to reboot your phone after you froze the app!)
5. Re-Enable WiFi or 3G/4G (Whatever you use for internet ) And browse the Marketplace with the old app
This was tested on the Samsung Galaxy Mini running the GB 2.3.5 ROM (Stock)
Have fun!​

well, i can't understand the nature of this post, as newest play store is not slow at all, and it have much better design comparing with older versions...

Did that happen after you have used this tutorial or before Google Play existed? It works just fine on my phone, sometimes it says the download has failed but it still installs the app anyway :silly:

Yeah it seems like such a pointless addition. But you can try freezing with TB or something.

Any reason you need to remove it? It looks like it's just making the Google settings more open and easier to access.

I like to remove useless apps.
Especially when they get secretly installed.
It's crap in my eyes.
Thx. for replying everyone.

So there is no way to remove it? Because I can't find it in TiBu and it bother me it's there. I'll never use it.

Seems you get it, when Playstore is updated.
Green icon in app drawer.
I don't need it or want it.
Can't remove it or freeze it

try uninstalling play store updates see if that removes it .... if so you can disable updates through TB i think?

Did that already and that works.
But there will be a next update I guess..

remove google settings app
For those of you who prefer not to be sheep going to slaughter.
I unistalled google play services and that removed it from the phone. Not sure what else will be affected but I am still able to download/install apps from play store. I figure I may miss the next version of play store that comes out. Better than them sneaking stuff in. You may find the actual apk inside the google play directories. Please post if you do.
Also if anyone has ever figured out how to disable E911. If you dont want to disable yours that fine. STFU because your input is not needed ok. I dont want it on, period!!!
For the rest go ahead and follow the heard. [sheep noises....lol] !

Google Play Store and Goggle Play Services are not related. But it was a clever move with the names.
Google Play Services are the core to a host of future functions, especially to apps relating to social contacts, location related services and in particular (paid) games playing. Also, as many have detected already, with the 3. party sign-in control Google is able to watch and possibly control to whom and how you have contact with.
If you de-install Google Services, it will be auto re-installed in shortest time again in the backgound. If you happen to be on mobile data at that time, the bill is on you. If you disable or freeze Google Play Services, it will not be auto re-enabled. At least not as of now. But some functions of the phone and some Google apps like Hangout are made dependant on Goggle Play Services. So there function will cease.
More and more people are disgruntled about the way Google is doing things now. It is absolutely Googles own thing what apps they want to develop, and what functions they want to implement. But shoving down apps onto my property without my consent is not acceptable to me.
The people are not sheeps bcs they are forced to have things installed things they don't fully understand. I believe that many simply don't think twice, if something is (superficially) free, The strategies of companies like Goggle build on that fact.

Yep, it reinstalled. I will freeze it. But the sheep are the people that say one should accept it, or come back with tin foil comments etc. Those are sheep. I agree why force it on people? Esp from software the is supposed to be opensource. As one person posted somewhere it also redundant.

I know what you mean and I share your resentments. Albeit I fear there is nothing much we can do.
Google makes more and more Android functions depend on Google Play Service being on, and up to date. Just recently I registered that Calendar synchronisation now does not work with this "Services" disabled.
Unless someone makes a hacked version of that skunk.

[Q](2.3.6 Stock) Can't update apps...

Hi,
I have a slight problem with my SG Ace S5830. As I got a new phone, I prepared Ace to be taken by my relative, who wants to try 'touch phones' as he calls smartphones.
But, on topic. Phone is 2 years old. Stock 2.3.6 version, Polish one, unbranded, updated using Samsung Kies. I have performed a Factory reset in order to wipe out my data. And here is where problem starts. After waking up, phone as clear, only stock things are on it. I tried to set it up, worked until I tried updating apps to newest available versions. Android Market (yes, Android Market, not Google Play Store), says to me, that I haven't installed any applications. It doesn't see the ones, that are installed allready. And also, he doesn't update himself.
Kies says, it's the newest software for this phone. I'm trying to set this phone up on a new Google account.
Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong or give me a solution?

Install the latest play store.apk (find it by Google search), sigin using you Google account. Open play store. Wait until accept & continue pop up appears on your screen ( might take some time). Select ok & you're good to go.

Worked for the store, thanks, but still - store doesn't see anything on phone, that came with stock 2.3.6. I need to manually search for things.

Maps, gmail, google search, etc., should be shown in the list of installed apps. If not, download something & it should show up. If not, then try to sync your device to Gmail. It should be fine then.

Yes, apps indeed showed, but after finding them manually and updating them manually as well.

Nice to see that your problem's solved.

problems loading some apps from samsung app store

So I just got my neo and am trying to load some apps on to it. I can load some such as the flashlight app and pacman but I wanted to add an rss reader like appy geek or feedly. Sadly, they say they install and then when I go to gear manager and look on the list, it's not there and I receive a notification that the install failed. I had to go to settings=>apps and remove the appy geek for gear app that way and the same for feedly. I have the apps installed on my phone and am running a GS4 with 4.4.2 and the latest Samsung apps from their website. Is anyone else having issues similar to these or know of a work around?
Thanks!

I'm having this issue as well. Anyone have an answer?

I am having a similar problem.
A friend used my phone to install an app from the samsung store. Now when I want to install the app it says view in gear manager instead of giving me the option to install on my gear 2. There seems to be no way to make the samsung store think it is uninstalled. I have fully reset my gear 2, phone, deleted my samsung account and made a new one, no change at all.
Super annoying. 5$ to anyone with a fix.

Same problem for me on kitkat
The app install on my phone but gets error after that to or when try install on the phone

Did you all mess with Samsung Hub? I know I had this issues when I uninstalled it.

I dont have any thing with name samsung hub.....
