I used Astro File manager to install backed up apps, but they don't show up in the Market -> Downloads list after flashing (obviously). Is there a way to sync the list with my installed apps? Do I now have to manually check for updates for EACH app?
Once you download it from the market it will appear on the list. You can use aTrackdog to check updates for all installed apps too.

Right, but what I'm saying is that I manually installed them and didn't go through the Market...so they don't show up in the list.
I'll try that aTrackdog. Thanks.
Read again, YOU HAVE TO DOWNLOAD THEM FROM THE MARKET FOR THEM TO SHOW UP IN THE DOWNLOADS!

RIGHT, THAT'S WHY I MADE THE THREAD, BECAUSE THEY DON'T SHOW UP, BECAUSE I USED ASTRO TO INSTALL THEM, NOT THE MARKET.
Im asking for a way to sync or update them WITHOUT HAVING TO DOWNLOAD THEM FROM THE MARKET.
aTrackdog apparently is the answer.
aTrackdog just shows updates, then you download it from the market. What I was stressing was you have to download them from the market to get them to show up in the downloads. There is no way to sync them without getting it from the market.

Yeah, that's all I really want is the updates. I just don't feel like re-downloading 30 apps just to have them show up. lol
I might just have to suck it up and do it. aTrackdog goes through a lot of extra stuff vs. only showing the updates available (via Market) Thanks for the help though!

Well if you have atrack dog, it will tell you there are updates. Then when you update them via market they're now in your market downloads and you can get updates from the market for that app.
Not sure if I am getting lucky or what, but the following has happened for me twice now... Once on my G1 and once on my wife's G1...
I used MyBackup Pro to back-up my Apps and the data that I cared about... Made a copy of my SD card on my PC... Formatted the SD card... Repartioned using Amon Ra's recovery... Ext2 -> Ext4... System wipe... Flashed the "defanged" HTC image... Flashed CM 4.2.13... Flashed the radio... Signed in... Went to the market and ONLY searched for Astro... Downloaded Astro... Exited the market and mounted the SD card... Copied my SD image on the PC onto the SD card... Used Astro to install MyBackup Pro... Used it to back-up my Apps and data... Rebooted...
After everything was done, I went to the market and THEN went to the My Downloads section... All of my Apps appeared and were tagged as "installed"...
Might just be a fluke, but if not... Your welcome...
MBP backs up the market as part of the settings, so yes it works as it should.
I'm having a problem downloading and updating apps from the Android Market. As soon as the download is complete and the phone tries to install the Android Market force closes. Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know how to fix it? My N1 is rooted and running CM 5.0.6.

Go to settings>applications>manage applications>market then clear cache and uninstall updates.
Come back to home screen then go into market, accept the T&C's and download your stuff.

Thanks man it worked. The only thing is that I have to do it every so often. It also takes a lomg time for anything to show up (i.e. searches, downloads, and just browsing)
Thanks
Worked for me too
Thanko you!
Finaly!
I didn't need to uninstall updates. I fixed this by just clearing the data in the application. But yes, if an application hangs at install it seems to screw up the Market app.
Mhhh. Yesterday had an app (Volume) that was stuck on installing an app ... for hours.
Thanks! Fixed my issue.
Thanks, worked great

Am I missing something? When I goto settings>applications>manage applications>market I can clear data and clear cache but I can't uninstall anything.
I cleared both the cache and data but once I except the terms of service it FC again. And I still have the issue with FC after every install or uninstall.
Anyone care to chime in here? I'm still having issues with the market crashing even after clearing data and cache.
Also I notice the market will crash after I set my USB connection type to data (connect to the computer).
WTF!? i have tried partitioning/formating the sd card and reinstalling cm6.1.1 and everytime i login to my google account and go to the market IT ALWAYS CRASHES! i dont have anything but 2 purchased apps that are not installed. clearing data and such does not help. even tried to reinstall cm6.1.1 with and without hdpa gapps but the problem is still there. i have flashed roms countless times and this is a first. makes me want to get a blackberry now.
Worked, but now I have the old version. Does it upgrade itself?
I've installed new rom and when market updates it crashes. I did wipe chace, unistal update and yes it works. I get back my old market. But after few minutes it updates itself to new one and I'm back at the begining.

Where is your Market update installing to - /data or /system?
Sorry but I'm new here. How can I see where updates are? Do I need to go to recovery and find market folder somewhere in -data or -system?
You can use a file browser and look in /system/app and /data/app to see if the Market is there - however, a better option is to use Titanium and use the batch options to "Integrate updates of system apps in ROM".
Once the Market is back in the /system it should behave a lot better...
-data/app folder is empty. I found Marketupdater.apk in -system/app. I'll try this Titanium and report back how are things.
Ok I've fixed it. You just need to select english language in settings and it dosn't crashes anymore.
PS: Sorry for bad english.

This is the solution for most market FC issues. Someone should pin this.
If i check in the market to update the Youtube app, or Google maps, it says its not even installed because i didnt get it from the market but it came preinstalled.
So how would one go about updating these apps?

Works fine for me since day one.
If app that came with the phone matches the version on Market, it just says "Installed" without me installing it manually.
If Market version is higher, it says "Update" and lets me download an update and install it.
for me, if i search youtube or google maps it says "Install"..
I just installed the youtube app and now it appears to have installed over the one i had previously..
Same here. Installed FB, Twitter, YouTube etc and they installed over the pre-installed versions.

Yeah, that's normal too.
I found the same to be true. What I did to make sure I get any updates for what came pre-installed is I looked up each app in the Market, and if I found it, but it did not say "Installed", I installed it, so now all my apps are linked to the Market, and will get updated when needed. Otherwise you will be stuck with the version that came on the phone forever.
Same with me the pre installed apps dont seem to be recogni8zed as installed by the Market i have had to download facebook, youtube etc like other DHD users
For me, only Adobe Reader & Flash were not recognized. Manually installed Reader and I froze Flash with Titanium Backup so didn't update that one.
Titanium backup can on rooted devices, at least, integrate newer updates into the ROM via batch menu

I was noticing the same thing a moments ago...
so, can I safely install the update over the current?
Will this prevent to get any system update?

i installed it over the preinstalled ones and it works fine.
Im not too sure about this preventing system updates though. But i did notice that if you go into Settings>Applications>Manage Aplications then find the app there, there is an option to undo the update incase it blocks system updates.

It doesn't block system updates as updates to apps never touch system partition and OTA only checks system partition for consistency.

unless you use Titanium to integrate the updates into the ROM, I do this to keep things simple as I don't really like having two versions of the program on my device unneccesarily, but even in this case the system updates overwrite the /system partition anyway

Yes, integrating updates from Titanum Backup touches /system partition, but regular Market updates don't.
I've run into a bug with the new youtube app. If you have a video loading and let the screen come off. After unlocking it, the video lags a lot doesnt respond to touches. You can exit out of the app but then the audio of the video doesnt stop playing. No choice but to restart the phone. This happened to me twice this morning.
Do you guys think this is a bug with the youtube app or maybe the Desire HD because i recall the preintalled youtube app had a major bug as well on the DHD.
I just installed CM7 nightly 164 using verygreens size agnostic walkthrough. I previously tried the very latest nightly and had this same issue: Everything installs fine, gapps setup runs fine, market is installed fine. Problem: some apps, such as Youtube and Facebook do not have an Install button to press in Market. I tried both picking them during google setup (fails) and not installing anything during google setup and then trying to install from market afterwards. I am able to install other apps, but these do not have the install button: youtube, facebook, google maps.. any ideas? I tried clearing the market cache and it didnt help, I can see the app page, but no install button.
Look around. Many many threads with lots of solutions.

which application do you need?
Some other user could give you the requested apk for you to download and install it without needing Market.

When I rooted my Nook Color a few months back, a few market downloads came then seemingly automatically, then since then no market, I can download nightlies but no apps. I've tried most of the responses in here to no avail.
So I've wondered if I could create a zip file containing several apps and try to install them. My purpose would be to load apps on the Nook Color that would allow me to load files on the SD card and install from there.
I would prefer to get the market working, but I'm missing something. I've done manual nooter, download most of the programs that claim to be the missing link, tried several varieties of gapps, and some other suggestions as well.
Same problem. No install button for a bunch of apps in Market even after trying the suggestions listed here.

Uninstalling the updated market let me find and download those by searching in the old market. I also used Titanium Backup to uninstall the market update app first.
PS: Some have reported issues with the updated YouTube app so be forwarned.

I uninstalled my current Market app and installed 2.3.6. Now my links are there but the Market always force closes when I try to install.
That is because the app is updating itself again.

There is a workaround:
1) Set your DPI to 160.
2) Make sure the market app is killed, and then clear data for "market" in application management.
3) ???
4) Receive bacon!
You will have to kill Market/wipe market data every so often.

I'm trying this myself (see youtube thread), and it doesn't seem to be working. Some apps will show, others don't show the download / update buttons. Market version 3.0.27 CM7 n168. Unfortunately I don't have any older versions of the market to play around with.
EDIT: Okay, I spaced this one out, forgot to reboot after editing build.prop. The full market seems to be working now, I can update youtube, etc.
Forgive me if this has been asked, I've searched for an answer and found nothing helpful...
So the new market seems to be problematic, how can I get (and keep) the old market?
IT seems like when I uninstall the updates, its the old market for awhile, then the new market installs?
Also, some items (Netflix and such) don't show up anymore in Market... what gives?
Any help would be great, and I'll click the "thanks button" for anyone who helps me
Edit: this seems to stop the market from updating...

I found this posted over at the HTC Aria forum by user mtnlion and thought somebody might be interested. You can turn off the market updater (which is responsible for bringing the new market back over and over) by going to terminal emulator and typing:
Code:
$ su
# pm disable com.android.vending.updater
This can be re-enabled by doing the same as above but typing enable instead of disable. I've tested it and it appears to persist after reboot. If you already have the new market you can go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All > Market > Uninstall Updates. This will revert you to the old market. Do it after disabling updater.
This doesn't stop automatic updates of apps according to the other thread. I'm sure some of you already know about this but hopefully it'll help somebody.

Are you reverting to the old market because of the constant FC messages? or do you have other complaints?

Reverting back to the old market because the new market seems to be missing apps (netflix, etc etc) and the fact that the new market looks (and functions) like crap.
I have no issues with FC's... yet.
OK, well I don't want to stray your thread because I'm having a number of other issues with FC's. I'll start another thread.
Good luck.
Uninstall the market update app. (I used Titanium Backup.) Then uninstall the update and you should remain with the old market.
I can't get any updates. As soon as I start to download an update to any installed app, Market force closes. Any ideas?

Nightly 177 from SDcard.
3.0.27
build.prop is as is
Any app I try to update or install new. Here is an example at random: Solitaire by Ken Magic. Tried to install, get the download screen and boom force close.
I'm an inch away from just nuking my card and starting over. It was all happy until I tried updating the Market to the newest one and it's been in a death spiral ever since.
Thanks,
Homer
What I did, was rename marketupdater.apk to marketupdater.apk.bak.
I want to say the file is in /system/app
Then uninstall the market updates.
I don't know if it has anything to do with my market working, but I also did LCD Density to 160 fix. You can find that here on the forums pretty easily... But I read that the LCD Density fix only works a few days.
Mine's been working fine for at least the last week or so with these 2 things.

I think you answered your own question. Uninstall the market updater app. (I used Titanium Backup for this.) Then, go to the settings for the market app and uninstall the update.
I found this but haven't been able to run the linux stuff from terminal emulator (Su fails).
So I can't say if this works or not.

I'm on SD card to, with CM7. I'd love the old marketplace back, but also settle for having all of the download icons show. (I haven't been able to save edits to my build.prop).
