Is it normal for some apps to be missing after a NAND Restore?! I have been trying to get the 1.40 PRI update via the ##786# method and when restoring my phone, I realized that Fandango, Tapatalk Pro, and NYTimes were missing. I installed them back via the Market and all my settings were already in place. Weird?!
Now, is this normal?! I don't understand how it's even possible. Any way to avoid that in the future?!
Also, what is the backup/restore of the Google Files for?!
Thanks in advance...
BTW - Just updated my recovery to 1.7.0.2 and did another NAND Backup just in case.
Anyone know why that is?!
I have similar symptoms.

Apologies in advance if this is in the wrong area or if it has been answered, i've tried searching and nothing specific to this shows up.
I've just flashed my radio and rom to Cyanogen nightly 08202010 and everything is going well and looks good but how can I get all my backed up data and apps from my card that I backed up prior to the flash?
I've went into recovery and it all seems there but I need a way of getting it onto the phone from the card without screwing anything up.
First time doing this as you can tell.
Thanks for any help in advance,
Paul.
What backup programme did you use?

Thanks for replying mate. Used an app called MyBackup from the market. It allowed me to backup data and apps to my SD.
I've since learned that nandroid is a very good system, I found that on the recovery screen after I'd flashed my rom.
Any help is well appreciated.

My market just displays "starting dowload" indefinitely when i try to download anything. And my google talk closes the instant that it opens. Any ideas on a fix?

+1 on needing a fix.

Just started yesterday when i went to jts clean rom.

Have either of you done a titanium backup?

I had that problem yesterday I had to un-root the phone I can't post the URL but you can find the thread in the 2nd page of fascinate and devlopement forum
it was the only solution I found and it helped
Im Having the same problem. Happened after flashing JT's clean ROM.
It's from restoring apps with Titanium Backup. For whatever reason, whenever I do this, it breaks my market no matter what ROM and whether I have Voodoo or not. Restore to stock, re-root, and everything, and you need to restore every app manually.
I did not use Titanium Backup.
I posted a new thread about this, seemed to work for me and a few others I tried. Check "for anyone having market issues"
Been having the same problem. I used titanium to freeze then defrost Market. Then did the same thing to Market Updater. Market works perfect now, but it reverted from the Froyo version back to Eclair. But it's better than not working at all.
Promise this will work. Just go to titanium and click on Market and then click Wipe Data. Do the same with Market Updater. All will be fixed.

Thanks for the idea.
Got anymore? Did this, and the thread mentioned above and no change.
I will have to try reverting to eclair if i can't get this working. Argh

This is an old issue, with several things to try.
I would first suggest looking through your application list and uninstalling any 0.00 sized files left as ghosts of apps manually removed. There will possibly be other smallish sized files left behind as well if you can identify them.
Force stop and clear market cache
Boot into recovery, clear cache and reboot.

I tried everything you just said above exactly. It still has the same result: "Starting Download" indefinitely.
I also tried using Titanium Backup to wipe data for market and market updater, but that didn't work either. I'm pretty frustrated that I can't figure this out
Got a solution. I was having the same problem with my Evo. Go to applications, then go to installed on sd. Move everything over to the phone. Then go to all applications and clear cache/data/and force stop it. That did the trick. You can move everything back to sd card after it fixes the market issue and it shouldn't happen again.

I tried this to no avail. I also tried all of the above mentioned solutions, as well as all of them at the same time but with no luck. Its just stuck at "starting download"...
Anyone else have an idea?

I also had this problem, I had to remove lagfix, restore older backup and start all over. It worked and all is well for me now. It sucks but it worked. I hope someone else can find a better solution. I even had jt reply and he said he didnt have that prob. Hopefully some will figure it out.

Uninstalling the froyo market and reverting back to the 2.1 market resolved this issue for me on 2 phones ... Mine and the wifee.
I had this issue, and I found out something peculiar. I was running JT's Super Clean rom with Market 2.2 and a Voodoo kernel, and the Factory Reset ran, but did not actually reset anything. After turning Voodoo off, I was able to Factory Reset, which fixed the Market issues.
Same thing here...
I was having this issue as well. Had to install JT Clean rom w/ wiping cache and data. Tried every suggestion in the book but none fixed it but wiping cache and data and installing JT Clean Rom.

So I ran this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=915617
and it said that I had no rsa keys, so I went to my first nandroid before I switched to a custom rom nandroid backups, and a wimax.(my phones host ID I think).img existed in the folder. So I restored it.
After it was done I ran the app again, and it said that my keys were still not there. Afterwards, I went back to recovery and went to backup/restore and choose advance restore and checked the things I could restore, wimax wasn't among them, even though the file was there.
So my question: Is there anything I can do to restore them? I do have a backup.
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried using 4G? Maybe it just isn't reporting back correctly. Was your first nandroid done with the recovery the OP posted in the perm root thread where you had to manually backup the wimax keys or did you download rom manager from the market and install your recovery that way which backs them up automatically?
I have tried using 4G, but it doesn't work, I've tried other backups as well to no avail.
And it was with clockworkmod I made my backup, not manually

You could try the 2.2 ruu then reroot,maybe that would fix things don't know if the keys are individual device specific.

Tried it, but my rsa keys are still missing. Anything else to do, I have them backed up with clockwork, it just won't recognize them or restore them.
I wonder if you could push them with adb?

I think I would pm bcnice or someone from the perm root thread who seem knowledgable about such things. I only mention bcnice because in his original root instructions he had us manually back them up so I assume he probably knows how to restore the backups. I have a feeling many people would be willing to help but they probably don't frequent this board too often.
I'm reverting to stock but want to stay rooted. Looking at T-Mobile's site, it says that software number v2.32.531.1 is current. Is this correct? If so, does anyone have a link to a rooted v2.32.531.1 ROM? Much appreciated.

Let me ask a dumb question...
The ROM I used to go back to stock is software number v2.19.531.1. Is there a method I can use to get to v2.32.531.1 without wiping the device? I figure the "update" prompt I got OTA would kill my root so I passed on that.
Wiping is part of flashing. Leaving your system partition unwiped between flashes is not advised because it can cause problems. Use Titanium backup or some other app to backup your apps and sms backup/restore or similar to save your sms and the rest will need redone. It's the safer route
So you guys seem to load ROMs on your phone like my wife tells me I'm fat. What is your backup strategy? What tools do you use? I plan on helping the community by testing new ROMs but would like the phone to not be down for huge amounts of time and be able to revert to a known good configuration when a ROM goes bad.
Thanks

TWRP recovery makes full backups that you can revert to. It'll be like nothing wrong happened. Only takes about 2 minutes and it's up to you how often you do it. I make backups whenever I make major changes or flash a new ROM.
Thanks for info I'll do that

Yes, TWRP with a recent backup is like having a magical time machine. VERY important when you are rooted (being total admin of your handheld computer) and you are flashing new stuff which may be FANTASTIC or may be very buggy.
"Wow, wish I could go back to yesterday when my phone was working great!" You can.
I make a backup almost every day (or at least every other day), just as part of a morning routine, since it takes almost no effort and is cheap insurance. When I'm at work, I boot my phone into TWRP recovery, start the backup. Pick up the phone a few minutes later, delete the previous backup (I only keep one at a time), and then reboot the phone.
At least 3 or 4 times a year, I am VERY glad I made a backup.
You can even transfer off a backup file to a PC or elsewhere for safe-keeping if you wish.
Thanks did my first backup...

Probably a different conversation, but what about when you install from a fresh new ROM? Do you just download everything back from the play store? And configure your software from scratch or is there and easy method for that?

Titanium backup can backup apps and your settings that you can restore once you flash a fresh ROM.

I backup with a new hack. Or iffy vulnerability.
Otherwise I just flash.
Pictures are on Google photo backup
Phone numbers are on Google cloud,
All I have to do is install a working ROM and if I have to I can use twrp and a cable to transfer it over.
Is there a way to backup just app data, titanium took forever to restore apps and data. I found it easier to restore via google,but now have to restore all app data
