Have fun!
I installed after deleting the existing market apk. It force closes every time I try to use it. I cannot move it or copy it to system apps. I can put it in either internal memory or on the SD card. I can accept market terms and start it but then it force closes. I tried clearing data, cache and rebooting but same force close every time. I did not delete market updater apk. Any suggestions? I have the original market reinstalled until I can come up with a solution.
Woah, that's a huge change. o.o
I recommend getting the sgs tools app from the market. It has this included now and you don't have to worry about sideloading or moving the apk with a file manager or adv commands. The new market is really nice.
This is my captivate. There are many like it buy this one is mine.
works on cm6.1 beta 3
Worked on Perception 8. Just copied it over to my sdcard and installed it using the normal installer. Thanks man! It looks awesome.

Looks/works well but where's the update all button? Does it only appear only when there are more than one apps to update?

Works and looks great on Captivate and I also suggest using SGS Tools FTW.

Anyone notice the search icon in the upper right and via the menu key doesn't respond?
I installed via sgs tools. (amazing app by the way)

New market seems like a step backwards in some ways. I can see the need to reduce the refund time, but 15 minutes is nuts. Also, removing the tabs? That's just a mess.
Bring the tabs back, and make refund time 3 hours, and I'm a happy guy.
I also think it's a step backwards in a lot of ways. Yeah, that nice green design header looks cool... but it dominates the damn screen. Annoying!

Update: Tried to go back to original version via SGS tools restore script and lost Market completely.
Reinstalled new apk via droid explorer and it reappeared, and now search functionality works as expected.

Yea... but you can scroll around and lose the header once you start browsing.
Didn't have any issues after installing it - search feature worked.
Just downloaded straight onto my phone and used the base installer (no droid explorer, astro etc..) and it worked fine.
Also you get the "update all" on the top button under your downloads if you have multiple updates - which I did
Thanks again for this.
After dealing with frustration after frustration with apps and HC, I decided to switch over to CM7. I backed everything up with Titanium Backup Pro then did a nandroid, then installed CM7 release 29. Everything went great with the install but I can not restore any of my backed up apps.
When I go to my backup/restore list, then select an app to restore, I get the dialog for app only or app + data. If I hit app only, it comes back and says that "App restore complete" but when I look at my drawer, the app is not there and in TB Pro, it still has the line through the listed app. If I hit restore app + data, I get the message App + Data restore failed. I've tried downloading the apps from the Market, then trying to just restore the data but that doesn't work either. I get the message that says it's complete but when I load the app the first time, no settings have been changed.
I also tried going into root explorer, changing the /system/app directory to R/W but that doesn't seem to make a difference. I've updated su and busybox from within TB and using the stand alone apps. I've tried unmounting and remounting the sd card. I've tried rebooting. Nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?
I have the nandroid so I can go back to HC and try an alternate backup method but I'd love to get this just to work.
The version of Titanium Backup that I am using is 3.7.4.1.
Thanks.

There are three options in the Problems? menu.
Check Wiki
Update Busybox
Update Superuser
I looked at the wiki and it didn't provide an answer to this problem. I updated Busybox again and Superuser was already updated.
I have TB set to keep 3 backups. I went and did another backup then verified all backup files. Over 100 files, including some that I just backed up under CM7, came up corrupt.
Any ideas why the majority of files backed up are corrupt? Clearly depending on TB to backup apps on the Nook was a bad idea.

I'm having this problem as well. TB has never worked on any of my roms. I usually try to do a lot of searching before I post, I'm usually not the first to have problems. But I can't seem to find a solution anywhere.
I think you have to go into settings and into application settings then tick the box to allow unknown sources.
So I tried the new MIUI rom for Milestone and I really liked it, I switched from CM7, and when I did a data restore from CM7 to MIUI, it made my phone freeze and not run properly, giving me system errors. So I wiped and did a davlik wipe as well. Did a nandroid restore to my CM7 rom and used Astro file manager to backup all my apps. Than I wiped again and flashed MIUI, than used astro to install all the apps again, but they do not show up as installed in my market. Just the purchased ones show up as not installed, just pruchased. Is there a way that I can fix it, so the market will detect me installed apps so I can update them. I was hoping to have to avoid reinstalled 50 or more apps.
Thanks, Adam.
Hope all that made sense lol

Use TITANIUM BACKUP and use the option to force app to show on market.
the Market Doctor? or is there another option? Will restoring my apps make them appear in the market?
Thanks.

Download the TITANIUM BACKUP and them look for the option to attach the app you want to the Market.
Simple like that.
search app call "google xxx architecture" in manage application, clear cache, reboot,relogin gmail, open market
off coz use tititum backup to save the app for DR

What about the apps that it didn't attach? it maybe did half...
Trying to restore titanium backup of downloaded apps and settings from another device. Apps restore properly but none of the settings do (game scores, etc.)
I have never had a problem restoring to other devices. Is there anything I have to do to fix this?
Dmore rom, semaphore kernel
Had the same problem at one point, tried fixing it but didn't know what to do and nothing seemed to make any difference. And then suddenly one day it was working again.
The only difference i can think of is I updated titanium backup. try that.
If that doesn't work try uninstalling it and reinstalling it (copy the titanium backup folder on your sd card onto your computer just in case it gets deleted, don't think it should.)
Other than that google the problem (Titanium backup wont restore apps - google search), there are ton of similar situations, there's probably an answer out there already that'll work for you

I'm on version 5 so that should be fine. and thanks for the link, although I did not find why data is not being restored.
Strange thing is that data from ONE app was restored but not others. After seeing that I remade the backup but the same thing happened. I wonder if its where the i9000 stores the data of backups is the issue
No other ideas? No one has had this happen?
I've been looking for a solution for two nights, this hasn't happened to anyone?

Go into options of titanium and make sure you have backup external data to always. I run a restore this morning because I was switching ROMs and everything worked fine.

In advanced, there is something to do with sym link. Check that. Try again. Some roms use that.

Restore manually. When you go to the folder with all the backups, there should be a bunch of .tar and other files. Just install the apks on the other phone and manually restore the data in the .tars

I see the tars, and in each tar there is a data folder, another data folder inside, and then the .com folders. what do i restore and where do I put it?
for example, in the AKnotepad .com folder there are these folders:
app_sslcache
databases
shared_prefs
some apps also have a files folder inside the .com
I can just place them using ES file browser with root browsing method on the phone, just am not sure where.
When O had a look into my backups, that had data folders in them. Go on your old phone and see where the files in data folders go. Most go to /data/data. I recommend Root Explorer.

On my old phone they go there, but i think thats what the issue is, that they are located somewhere else on the i9000?

Great phone, now I'm about to throw away my tablet (I used to think my Tegra2 was the best there is)
Now I just whant my Iron Man 3 progress there on my phone.
Asphalt 8 is also desirable
And root to get to use SixAxis!

Data sync from the play store. Must be rooted and have both devices on the same Wi-Fi network. You can choose to move data or app and data. Obviously, the bigger it is the longer it'll take.
Edit: guess you can sync to the cloud now. That's cool. I might use it more.

Thanks for the reply. But it requires root and that's something I still dont have on mi X
You can use helium to do that, even w/out root. Just need to hook the phone up to the computer with the helium desktop app running and you should be able to pull the data then from your old phone and put it on the new phone with the app.
+1 for helium, it works great!

BusyBox
I was going to use the DataSync app to copy a few app data files for games,
but I couldn't get DataSync to start on my Moto X because BusyBox wasn't
installed. I've tried two or three of the BusyBox installers on the Play
Store but all have failed to install. My old phone is a Droid X-2 and is
rooted with BusyBox and ready to use the DataSync app. Has anyone got
BusyBox to install on the Moto X? Should I change the install folder? I
don't have much experience with BusyBox other than installing it on my X-2
for some app. I may just try the Helium desktop app for the app data copy
but I would like to know about BusyBox in case it's needed later. DataSync says it does work with the Motorola phones but I'll try it anyway. Thanks.

Busy box installed fine for me... Have you tried normal install vs smart install? Not sure how much of a difference it'll make but if you haven't, at least it'll be something new to try.. Works both ways for me and I've never had to change the location.
I always had issues getting data back on certain apps with helium. Must just be me, I hear great things about it, anyway, data sync is just something I'm more familiar with. Easier too.. At least for me. But yes, busy box has worked for me on stock rooted, stock rooted SS, and TMo port to VZW.

I read somewhere to boot to recovery so the r/w permissions were off. Once I did that and BusyBox installed with no problem. Also, DataSync worked awesome and was super easy. I uploaded the two apps to the other detected device no problem.
Can anyone confirm that any of these methods work on iron man 3? I've tried titanium backup and my backup pro in the past and the game days never synced. Always had to completely restart the game...

The helium method works for sure. I've used it on many apps and games to transfer settings / progress. Used it on 4 different devices so far with out problem.

I think you might need to enable a setting when you're using the backup to install. There should be an option to either just install the app, or to install the app and all previous data. I think. Sorry if it wasn't too helpful; I haven't used Titanium for a year now.

Hi guys I'm another user in search of transfer game progress from Iron Man 3.
I tried many applications like Helium, Titanium Backup (with a nandroid backup), My backup Root and nothing works for me.
Always Iron Man 3 reset to begining (tutorial)
I´m not tried DataSync, but i'm not sure is working or not
Anyone please confirm any method for sure ??
Many thanks in advance for
Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Chile XD
I also tried to change my Device ID (with the same as the old S3) and nothing happens again!!
And I tried to do a Nandroid Backup, choose the game Iron Man 3 and restored it with Titanium Backup Pro (I purchased it) and nothing again!!
I usually go into /data/data and pull its directory. That is where saved games and settings are typically stored.

Thanks smokedkill, I was able to transfer using files from /sdcard/Android/obb/ and /data/data. This was a test from a new setup with a small score. I will update once I have some more achievements in the game.
