[Q] Cannot See Free apps in Market!!

Good sirs,
Recently, like since last week, I cannot see any of my installed apps in the Android Market, under "My apps". Consequently i also cannot see any updates to those apps.
The ONLY thing, I see there are the apps I have purchased, and any apps I newly install...
I have a captivate running cognition 2.1.6.
anyone else having this issue?
HELP!!!

Have you tried clearing the data?
Menu button->Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->Third Party Tab then scroll down and choose Market then click Clear Data.

Try the above first, if that doesnt work, go to the market and download Eris Market Fix. This app worked for me on my captivate before.

im running 2.1. dont see a third party tab.
but i did clear the cache. did not help.
then tried uninstalling the updates to market. it said uninstall failed.
Now my market is completley gone!!

I'd suggest three other things then...
First would be to restore from a backup... you did backup your apps when you flashed right?
Second would be to use or get SGS Tools and try the Market Fix option there. Find it here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936727
Third would be to search vending.apk That's the market apk, then download it and sideload it.

I reinstalled a whole new ROM...
BTW, I heard that using the new market web interface will break the market on devices with custom ROMs. is this true??!

I haven't heard of anything lime that. When I was on 2.1, I had a blackmarket app that allowed.me to upgrade my market interface. I have never had a problem with not being able to see free appear tho. I suggest backing up anything you have that's important and after attempting any fixes that others will and have spelled out, try a ODIN3 restore. I don't have any links but it will fully restore your phone to stock. Some of your data should still be there but it will do a full wipe and restore. Other than that, don't listen to me. I only have 3 posts.......

help my phone cannot download apps from the market anymore

I am on continuum v6 rc1 now but this problem has been persistent on serendipity and apex 7.1. I am on wifi and whenever I download an app from the market, it stays on the downloading bar and never downloads. I know that the connection is not the issue as I have been using it for other internet related things on the phone. I have flashed back to stock jf6 and master cleared before applying the latest continuum and the problem remains. I have also tried removing the market update, clearing cache, and rebooting. Nothing has fixed the issue, and upon rebooting, the apps that are attempting to download still appear in the notification tray without any success.
Please help...

Will they download on jf6?

did you g to settings>applications>manage applications>all>market>clear data?
also sometimes the market is just stubborn try one at a time and when it stalls like that click on it and select to download again. sometimes takes 3 or 4 tries before it acually downloads

I was able to download apps from the market on stock jf6. But now I am on cyanogenmod7 nightly 40 and I am still unable to download apps. This is very frustrating because I do not want to stay on jf6 just so I can use the market. What else should I try?

Sorry I forgot to tell you I already tried that.

Does anyone else have any suggestions. I feel like I've tried everything and still no luck.

This happened to me, sorry to tell you but.. you have to do a factory reset. Get titanium backup and backup everything important to you.

If you find sgs tools its an app trying putting this app on your phone by downloading it on a computer as an apk and put it on your sd card and install it then there is a spot that says run script find the market this will unistall market and reinstall it this could work

I tried both of your suggestion and neither worked. For a factory reset, I retrurned to stock and master cleared. While on atock the market was working. But now that I have flashed a gingerbread rom it does not work. I tried going into settings and doing a factory reset from the privacy screen. This simply earased the data on my sd leavng the apps on my phone. And the issue remains. I also tried using sgs tools to uninstall and reinstall the market and again no luck.

cant download apps from the market

so i dont know if a lot of people know, but there is a game called "third blade". I really wanted to try this game out but it shows an error everytime i click download.
it says insufficient space for download. which is ridiculous cause i have a lot of space left. rebooting didnt help, and this is the only app that does it... Any ideas on how to fix this? thanks

Try going into settings, applications, manage applications, all, then find the Market and clear data.

I've also had luck rebooting into recovery mode and clearing the cache, but it might be the same thing.

none of those worked...
i guess ill just not play this game

No you're going to play this game. Have you tried a different version of the market?

Here's the Market apk I pulled from Cognition 5 Beta 2. It is Market 2.3.4
Just copy to ur phone, go into Titanium Backup Pro and go to the Backup/Restore and find Market Updater and tap it and Freeze it. Then back out and go to ur My Files app and find the Old Market.apk, select, ok, and Install. That should do it.

[Q] play store server error [Rom MIUI v4 ICS] MyUI-v4 2.1.22_2101 Euphoria

Hello,
I just updated to the new MYui Euphoria. Evertything works great, except for the play store. I`m keep getting ''server error'' and need to hit the ''retry'' button. I have tried to set up a VPN and used the market enabler, but without succes. Reflasing the rom woul'd help either. If i use the older rom (Delphinium rom) or any other rom, it's not a problem with the play store. Does anyone knows how to fix this?
The netherlands
provider: Telfort
GT-I9000 MYui Euphoria rom

Have you checked for a solution on the rom thread and checked if anyone else is suffering from it?
Also have you wiped data from settings for the market? Use Titanium backup if you can get the apk installed, it has a more through wipe sometimes.

Yes, i have tried this, but it has no succes... Still keep getting the server error.
do you have any other sugestions?

Try fixing permissions from recovery. If that doesn't work then delete market data again and then uninstall market, (I'm assuming you have TB now) and then reinstall the stock gapps.
And last thing I can suggest is see if you can check if you CSC is correct. There is a thread running in this section asking whether it is possible in ics..

Tnx, bij reinstalling the stoch gapps, i got a connection to the play store.
I did not get the option to accept the policy before, so i guess that`s the reason i could not connect to the store.

[Q] Can't install apps remotely (from Play Store site) after CWM restore?

I am currently running CM7 (2013-01-01 nightly) on my Galaxy Ace. When I want to try a new rom I go through the usual steps: make a CWM backup, wipe, flash the new rom, play with it for a while, and then restore my backup to go back to CM7.
Everything works fine, except for one major issue: I can't install apps remotely from the Play Store site after restoring the backup. I click on Install, it says the app will be downloaded to my device shortly, but nothing happens. Wiping and flashing CM7 again fixes it, but that means losing my backups. Is this a known issue? Is there something else I should do after restoring a backup for the Play Store to work correctly again? Thanks!

Can you still login to your GMail account?
Maybe you just have to reconfigure your Google account (and wipe some caches)

Try Menu/Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/All Apps/find the market app and open it, then force stop the app, then clear catch, clear data, then uninstall updates. Now back out and reopen the market app and then follow the sign in instructions.
Hope this helps.

@ OP : Forget cwm backup. Backup all your data with titanium backup & after a fresh flash, use the " restore data only " option in the titanium backup app.

I'll try that, thanks! If you've restored a Titanium backup before, it'd be awesome if you could check that installing apps from the Play Store site works after the restore. I'm a little weary of losing my CM7 setup again only to fix this issue. Thanks again!

Really speaking, I never use titanium backup as the only things that matter to me on my phone are the contacts & the info I provided earlier was just from a hint of what I had come across before. I can't try it out for you coz I'm currently unrooted. But definitely the data backup should work fine without any issues at all. Just go ahead & try out

Is the Play store installed on your phone? If it isn't you won't be able to dl remotely from the store. If it isn't you will have to find a version of gapps to work with your rom.
