I'm only after installing CyanogenMod and I'm really happy with it but I have two problems.
1) The Android Market is currently not there? I tried to download an APK file, but how do I install it if I can't download an app to do that?
2) I did a backup with nandroid before I installed the ROM, if I restore the backup I made. Does this remove the ROM? I want all my apps back etc. Is there anyway I can make this so it doesn't remove the ROM but instead restores the essential things I backed up?
Thanks
You need to download the gapps file and install then you will have Google apps and market

Second above post. Legally CM is not allowed to include the gapps n the build. I believe they even received a cease and disist order for having gapps standard on the roms.

Yeah, I read that on the internet so I'll try that. Is that why there is no YouTube app etc.? Thanks

If you want to restore all your apps use titanium backup.

Depends on what ROM your running.

It's running CM 6.0.0-DS
The easiest way is to buy the donate version of titanium backup. It has a batch process to move all user installed apps to SD card, and back if you want. Have to be rooted I'm pretty sure. Otherwise go to settings, applications, manage applications, and you can move them one by one.

My suggestion is to go to settings, applications, manage applications and you can select some that are not used very frequently so that will not have an impact on the performance of your phone.
CM6 is an awesome ROM!
Yup CM6 have that good feature in option.change app install into SD. Have not try it myself. Ran into it accidentally. Kekeke

I know the phone comes with two games pre installed, how can I remove them? I've downloaded an uninstaller app from the market, but it won't let me remove them. Help please?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
You would have to root your phone. They are pre-installed software much like TMobile app pack, Stocks, etc.
Be cautious of actually removing apps, unless of course you are planning on flashing custom roms.
I used titanium backup to "freeze" apps. It removes them from the application tray, but keeps them installed so you can still receive OTA updates
Hope I helped

Does "freeze" via Titanium do basically the same thing as the method using the "pm disable..." command, or are there notable pros and cons to each method?
Hi to all,
Guy I usually Flash my Atrix every once and a while to test the new Roms out there.
But after every flash I have to download all the APPs and other settings.
Whats the fastest way to restore all apps after a flash .
Thank you guys, and sorry for the noob questions.

To restore all apps use either appbrain or titanium backup

I have the arc-x8 rom and i want to shange rom to froyobread but i have some apps that i want to save and i wonder if i putt them on the SD they will still work after Shanging rom? Sorry 4 bad English =√
Sent from my Arc-X8 using XDA App
indeed it will work. there are several option to do that;
1. copy the apps you want to save in /system/app, paste it somewhere in your sd and install after changing ROM.
2. Use titanium backup and restore after changing ROM.
Tnx alot. Ill do it today. Posting result.

i have been using it 4 the whole dag and the ondely bug i stumbled on was that i coudent open market but after i cleaned all chache and re instaled it workes just fine
During some fevered app removals from my rooted N7, I removed the stock Swype keyboard (I normally use Graffiti). Now I want to reinstate it as an option but neither 4.2.1 or 4.2.2 upgrades have shoved it back in.
How can I get it back, please?
Just go and get it out of one of your backups.
You do make backups before you start modding things willy-nilly, right?
What's that? No backups? *sigh*
How about if you make a backup of your current ROM, install some ROM that has the files you want in it, copy the files out of that ROM to your SD card, restore the backup from the first step and patch the files into place?
Check this out too: you could actually use a pure stock ROM as the source of your missing files, and while you have it temporarily installed, make a backup of that, too! Then you would have a backup of a ROM which is capable of accepting the OTA! Wow!
Think of the possibilities: the next time an OTA comes around, you can restore the pure stock ROM backup, perform the OTA on that... and ... and.... make a backup of that new pure stock ROM too!
Oh My Dog, my head is beginning to spin with the possibilities. I better step away from my tablet before somebody gets hurt.
Make Backups. Early and Often.
Removed? Or disabled? Could just need to set apps back to default?

Swype is an app downloadable from the play store. The stock Android keyboard is called Android, even though it does support swype type operations now.
If you want the Swype keyboard, just download and install it.

I don't see Swype in the play store.
You can get the Swype beta (the latest and greatest) by signing up at the Swype web site. I put the Swype beta on all my devices, even the ones that come with Swype.

Right - the Swype web site is where I got the beta. Really installed it for the excellent included voice support.
