Hi,
I was playing around with LoxDev's most excellent AOSP 2.0 ROM today. After installing, I added the Google apps so that I could look at the Market. This all seemed to work fine, but I noticed on "My Downloads" that most of my paid apps were missing.
Anyway, I reverted back to my previous ROM via the Nandroid backup I made before flashing 2.0, and now I find that the Market problems have followed me.
Specifically, most of my paid apps are no longer in "My Downloads", and I can't even find them if I search. Of course, they are all still installed on the phone, so I've not lost anything, and I can still see many paid apps on the Market - just not most of the ones I already own (though oddly I can see some). I tried buying another app to see if that would "refresh" my list of apps, but that is now stuck on "Authorizing Credit Card".
It seems likely to me that playing around with the Market on 2.0 has done something server-side to cause this issue.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave
I did the same thing, i reverted back, i backed up my apps and bought new ones and backed them up, and imported them into my AOSP rom file because market enabler doesnt seem to work for me on 2.0. But when i went back, i didn't have this issue. this is strange
I am finding this too, some of the apps have also disappeared from the market altogether for me! Luckily I only have a few 99p apps installed, but as a warning to others!
I fixed my issue by wiping the device so that I had to go through the set up wizard again. When I went into the Market, I was asked to confirm the terms and conditions, and I could once again see all my paid apps.
I then restored the Nandroid backup that I made prior to installing AOSP 2.0, and then I could see all my apps in the Market again. The new app I purchased began to install immediately too.
Regards,
Dave

Did it ever occur to you that the apps's devs can manage their accounts so that their apps only shows up in certain regions or on certain versions of the operating system?

I am *well* aware of this. The point is that my apps disappeared after running the Market on AOSP 2.0, and even after restoring my Nandroid backup (back to Modaco 2.8) they did not reappear.

I am sorry for not reading your whole post there... but I read it after I finished my post... and I saw that you didn't do a wipe of the old contents... hmmm... something old must have been rotting away in your phone I think...

Indeed clearly something was left behind - but I was quite surprised that a Nandroid restore didn't fix it on its own.

i did a wipe
and reinstall modaco 2.8
wipe again
reinstall again
but i still can't see radalert und twidroid in the market
@foxmeister did you wiped and go through the setup process again while using asop 2.0?

grr same problem can find twidroid in the market. Also missing some barcode scanners
Is it possible that this apps don't have support for Android 1.5?
It could be, that marketknow, that we are still at Android 1.5 and shows noapps, that have no service for Android 1.5
has anyone fixed this yet?? i still can't get around it. I need my twidroid.
Has everyone had this problem? It seems that the Google account needs to reset itself.
Been reading in a few places and if you log in with a different Google account the missing apps show up.
Getting a few paid apps pop up but still no twidroid. Also when I went to help in the market it said that "help wasn't available in my language"
Blacklisted for custom rom?
I think you need to re run the the agreement thing for the market as right now your google account is "un agreed"
sorry guys.... wouldn't it be "enough" to just uninstall the market app and reinstall it from apk? First start = terms and conditions accept button, doesn't it? I had a similar issue with googlemaps and evn though it took a lot of effort that is KIND of what I did. Some of you surely know it's not too hard and could maybe figure out a quick how-to... Just an idea!
ok, I've found a workaround. I tried to flash 2.1 ASOP ROM, open Market, Accept its Terms... then wipe and flash MCR. The Market is normal.
For some reason the market doesn't have a record of applications I purchased when I do a factory reset. I've tried it on various ROMs from the newest CM6 RC1 to the stock 2.2 for the nexus one. It seems like an issue with the market itself, or with my account. Not with a particular ROM/OS.
I sign into my Google account (The one I use for Checkout and the Market), under the downloads tab the only one listed is Google Maps. If I search for an application I've purchased before (Like SetCPU) it wants me to buy it again. I tried and can confirm that it WILL actually charge me a second time.
I am looking at my google checkout account now and can see that it clearly let me purchase the same application twice...
Does anyone have any ideas? Odly enough if I do a nandroid restore all of my apps work fine. I can uninstall, and re-download without paying. But the problem is eventually I am going to have to do a wipe. The crappy thing is Google doesn't have any formal 'support' for the market. And I am certainly not going to repurchase hundreds of dollars of apps..
I've had no issues. I had a G1 since day 1 bought tons of apps. Stopped using Android, 10 months later got a Nexus One, signed in and they're all there (purchased apps).
Flashed various builds of froyo, used cyanogmen 5.08, now 6 RC1, still no issues with purchased app history.

Edit: Sorry, didn't see read properly, you were referring to paid apps... they should always show up!
After a wipe, when you've signed in, instead of going to the Market to check for your apps, set the phone down for 15 mins or so.
Apparently firing up the Market interrupts the process.

No luck with that. I've also just tried waiting about 24 hours or so and still nothing.
I have this same issue and had to purchase a couple of apps twice. One developer was kind enough to refund for the second purchase. The second developer has basically ignored my requests. It really pisses me off...
I have tried to contact the Google Checkout team, but you may as well be sending postcards to the moon...they are not helpful.

Seriously? I have 36 Paid application on my checkout. Thats sucks.
I know it is probably obvious question... but did you sign in to the same Google account from which you purchased them?

Yep, correct account and everything.
1. You should sign in with you account you bought the apps.
2. To check this you can sign in to google check out and check if apps exists.
3. Try to buy apps that you already paid, it should just download and doesn't take money from you.
Have you tried going to the application manager and clearing the Market Data and Cache?

Like I said, it doesn't just download the application. It acts as though it has no record. And yes it is the right Checkout account. It requires me to repurchase them.

Yep! I've also tried deleting my Billing Address and CC# out of checkout, and even changing my password hoping it will help "resync" things... Nothing Works.
I've just E-Mailed all developers. In under an hour I have had about 10 or so of them refund me, repurchased promptly after, even if the application was more than what I originally purchased it for, I want to support the developers. A few developers said that quite a few people have had this issue. I don't expect to get all refunded, but so far I am impressed with the support from them.
Google has to fix this issue, they should be required to have additional support other than a "Help Forum" that doesn't guarantee any response for the market. They get 30% of the income, they're taking in money from this, it is inexcusable that they will screw over their customers and their developers who are put in charge of making a call for Google's screw up.
I'll add my experience as well..
1. You should sign in with you account you bought the apps.
Check
2. To check this you can sign in to google check out and check if apps exists.
Check...and they are visible in the Checkout account
3. Try to buy apps that you already paid, it should just download and doesn't take money from you.
Negative. As I mentioned earlier...it only allows me to purchase...no downloads.
I had to factory reset my phone which is how I ended up in that sorry position. I fully expected to be able to download the apps again since the phone was tied into the same account.
One of the responses I received from Google Checkout was "You will not be charged for apps twice"...guess what? I was.
I am experiencing something similar on my account. After a wipe I do see the list of apps that I've purchased, but I no longer see a list of the apps I've previously downloaded and there is no automatic downloading of apps after first sign-in anymore either.

Heh, thats a step more than what I could get. Literally the market said I had Zero applications installed ever.
With the applications I did repurchase I tested it, Installed two or three, wiped, logged in again. And worked like it was supposed to after repurchasing them. Confirms it for me that something isn't right on Google's end.

do you skip first then sign in after words? I found that it only does automatic app restore if you set it up during setup...sadly for most Roms this means you must use carrier data, for Cyanogen roms I found a way to do this over Wifi...first install just the Cyanogen pack (no Gapps) turn on wifi, let it connect, then go into recovery flash the Gapps, then come back and do the setup...the apps should restore as if you signed up using carrier data.
But yea, you can't skip the setup process.

I did try it both at setup and after the fact. Neither worked.
I haven't tried flashing the rom, starting up, then flashing the Gapps. Depending on the response I get about the refunds I may or may not try that. Can you explain to me what exactly carrier data is?

that's a very weird problem and sadly sounds personal-ish to me...I've flashed roms like it was my job since the G1 days and never ever had this issue..and I've had 3 phones, 2 carriers, had a random weird thing happen with my phone and this one game that recognizes who u are to keep ur accounts, etc...and all paid apps always showed up (and auto app restore as well, well since N1)...
I really hope you fix this issue
There are many apps out there that will back up your apps. ASTRO file manager (free and excellent) can back up apps. It creates a folder on your sdcard titled backups/apps and puts an apk there for each app you backup. If I were you, I'd do a nandroid, backup all of my apps, do your factory reset or flash your rom, install astro, then navigate to backups/apps and reinstall your apps manually. And for that one you already purchased twice and the developer wouldn't refund the 2nd purchase, might as well email that apk to a friend to get some use out of the second seat you purchased.
My Backup Pro is another app that makes app backup easy, but it's a paid app. When you run it and select backup apps, it'll ask for each app whether you want to backup or not, and it'll create a folder on your sd card with a zip file containing all of the apks of apps you chose for it to back up. When you restore, it'll go through the list of apps in that zip file asking for each one whether you want to restore, and restore them.

Yep, I have also probably done a full reset a dozen times. I'm not sure, heck for all I know google flagged me as suspicious or something. Who knows. I'm happy because I've gotten most of the major apps refunded (The ones that are $3-$10), so if I do have to buy any more again they'll mostly be the cheaper ones.

Just bought my Fascinate a couple days ago. This phone is sick, but my Market is spazzing out. When I signed into my Gmail account my apps didn't automatically restore like they're supposed to. I also only have tabs for Free and Just In, nothing for Paid and overall everything on it (the Market) runs very slow. I tried a factory reset to no avail, so I'm a little lost now...any ideas?
I believe the auto restore feature is a 2.2 feature. The other tabs you're used to seeing might be from 2.2 as well. We're running 2.1.
I actually had the same issue on mine while my wifes was fine. I just basically done a battery pull and when it came back up it was fine.
No, I know it's not because it's android 2.1. I had the droid before the fascinate which had 2.1 and it definitely had a tab for paid apps. That's not normal no matter what version of android it is. There's also the fact that it runs extremely slow that I can't figure out. It literally can take up to a minute to open an app page. =P
Run wifi while on market there has been some hiccups on vzw network the last few days and while in the market hit menu and then downloads. That will show all of ur paid apps
they call me...kick ass

I've been at work the past couple of days and we've got a WiFi connection that I use w/ my phone. It doesn't make a difference afaik. And I know my paid apps show up in my Downloads, but what I'm saying is if you go into Market, and pick an app category, there are only buttons for Top Free and Just In. There is nothing for Top Paid.
I had the same problem with mine when I had it. Just download one of your already purchased paid apps and it will fix the market issue

Didn't work. =[
Interesting twist, though. I reset my phone again and signed into a different Gmail account that doesn't have all my apps on it including purchased ones and it worked perfectly. Anyone have any idea why that may be, or would i be better off consulting Google on that one?
Hi all, First of all I have CM10.1 20130210 on my phone. (Had 20130208 when I noticed the problem, But I dont think thats the cause)
I normally check for CM updates & Play Store every night. Yesterday I wanted to check the Play Store but when I opened it it took me straight to the Categories page (It normally takes me to some "General Featured" page).
When I go into any of the categories it takes me to more categories into that one (Games>Racing/Action/Puzzle/etc) it didnt do that before.
After I go into one of those its just a grey screen, The store is blank.
I tried going into My Apps & Its blank. If I go into the All tab though they all show, Clicking on one of those apps does take me to its page & If I try to download a previously uninstalled app it does download and work properly.
Something very weird: The same thing happens in the Webstore, No app shows when going into Editor's Choice & When manually going into the categories its just blank. Going into app pages via my own apps do work.
Ive tried clearing the data of the Play Store (Settings>Apps>All>Google Play Store>Clear Data)
Ive tried reflashing my phone (Thats why I went from 20130208 to 20130210)
Ive tried Force Stopping, Clearing data & Rebooting
Ive tried unsyncing & Resyncing my Google Account
Ive tried uninstalling & Reinstalling Gapps (goo.im/gapps)
Any ideas on how I can fix this? I ran out of ideas myself...
Some screens of what happens, the one with the categories is what the store opens to, the other one is what happens if i go anywhere else.
Ive been trying to fix this all day & Most things Ive found seem to be fixed by wiping the cache or returning the DPI to its default state.
Thing is, I already tried option 1 & I never changed the DPI on my phone. (I dont even know how to do it)
Just tried changing the DPI & Nothing...
I installed Best Apps Market on my phone (Had to google it & Make it directly lead me to the Play Store page coz the Play Store doesnt work)
Basically you can browse apps through there & When you want to dowmload it takes you to the Play Store (Native app) page.
It did work & Display apps properly but they all said that they werent available in my country. I tried a VPN on my PC & Bam, Play Store works.
That seems to be the problem, Somehow my country got messed up but I cant seem to change it. I did manage to change it on Google Account>Settings>Email Edit>Country but that did nothing. Any help?
Did you get any help on this? did you resolve this problem ? i have the save the same problem. did the same things you did, but no solution

Nope, But I am 100% sure that it has to do with country settings.
I tried 1 last thing today: Completely wiping EVERYTHING off my phone & Reinstalling everything. Nothing.
I also noticed a few "Market Unlocker/Enabler stopped working!" threads these past 3 days, So basically Google did something.
I contacted support & This is an email I got yesterday:
Thanks for this valuable information. We really appreciate it, and it's because of people like you that we can improve the Google Play experience for all users.
We are currently aware of this problem with Android apps on Google Play and are trying to resolve it. This complex issue involves several areas of the Google Play Store app and is not an easy fix, so I don’t have a good estimate on how long it will take us to resolve it. As soon as I have any updates, I’ll be the first to let you know.
I really appreciate you taking the time to let us know about the details of your specific case; each time we hear more details, it helps us make a better solution. I hope that despite this, you will keep using the Google Play Store app and keep sending us valuable feedback when things don’t go as expected.
I’ll be sure to update you as soon as I have more information about this issue, but in the meantime, feel free to contact me if you have any other questions. I’ll be in touch!

So yeah, Nothing you or I can do about it.
What Imma do next is install a 3rd party app market that doesnt use the Play Store at all (Anybody got any recommendations?)
I have the same issue, when i first start play store it opens categories and then blank page...
the only way i can download apps from play store is from my pc.
I tried all of the above "tips" but got no solution.

Thanks for posting this. I wondered when the final axe would fall. Well, it's simpler if GApps are not installed anyway and it was getting more and more temperamental. All the more reason for people to share packages of apps that they are using which work well on the device so we can side-load them. They can't take that away!
Does anyone know if this will affect the license check-in for paid apps? :/
Wondering about Titanium Backup Pro especially, it seems to check in on almost every boot. It would suck if we couldn't use it on the Nook Touch anymore, even though there are some clumsy alternatives.
Oops! Tried installing the 1337 ROM from 9th April 2015... No support for Android Market makes the rom unusable
Definitely backup your entire device + your original recovery before installing clockworkmod or 1337 ROM
I will now rever to stock and probably use Nook Manager to root the stock ROM.
Such a shame, I was super excited ot try out what seemed to be the best NST ROM out there
If it wasn't for ending the support for google apps, it might have been a great improvement, oh well...
Anyone with similar experience?

July 2 and I can still use SearchMarket and install market apps....wonder if working installations are going to continue hobbling along?
Seems like it's gone for me. The market search function at least. The gmail app still works though.
How would you go about unlinking the NST from a google account all together?
It's not registered in the google device manager online, so I can't unlink it there.
I'm worried that things will start to wrong now when the framework is not supported anymore.

I'm surprised your gmail works. I could never keep mine going. It would retrieve mail OK but would only send for a few days and then have to be reinstalled to work for a few more days.
The only concern I have is GoogleBooks, but so far it's OK. I'm not sure you need Market access to sync mail or books, but down the line these older applications may be rejected as security concerns. Time will tell.
So far I see no sign of weirdness.
Edit: OK, today (July 4) my NST is officially independent of the Market. No server contact. However, Google Books still works at this point. I'm not sure you should do anything. You could uninstall SearchMarket but that's about it. After all, lots of people are signed into Google on various devices to get mail but do not access the PlayStore. Famous last words
I have disabled both MarketUpdater.apk and Vending.apk (found in /system/app) by renaming them as *.OLD. After a reboot I have seen no problems running the few apps I had actually obtained from the PlayStore or those I side-loaded. Note I do not have any for-pay apps.
It may be possible to also disable Talk.apk and any adjuncts as this is used to interface with the Market, but I'm not there yet. A good goal would be to quiet down any behind-the-scenes activity by apps that can't connect any longer but keep trying to phone home just to be sure. At the same time I'm trying to maintain sync capability so that, for example, Google Books will continue to work for as long as possible. This, it seems to me, is the only remaining reason to bother with the GApps package at all since Google Sync is enabled with it.
Hello everyone. A few days ago i took my phone wich was lying around in the dust (x10 mini pro). Happily switched on, connected to internet and hit on market, just to realize this happened.
So, is there some market for 2.1-update? I was thinking about F-droid, but, how about this?
PD: sorry for my english
