Setting application list not showing names - Galaxy Tab General

I have a problem with the application list under setting, it displays the file name instead app name on the list. Is there a way to correct this so that I can identify the apps directly. Thanks for any help.

So it says something com.android.settings.apk instead of just settings?
Id suggest to do a backup then a full wipe.

Hi, I did a reset and wipe everything, it has the same problem on a clean device..

I believe this is a bug in the HK firmware that the "manage application" under settings shows only file name of apk and no icon as well as name of apps.

I have the same problem, and I'm also using a HK firmware in my Tab - any solutions yet? Seeing only package names when trying to find an app to uninstall is a bit of an inconvenience..

An Installed Application Cannot Be Found In App Drawer

I installed an application but cannot found it in app drawer. The application is Oxford Dictionary For English which i bought from the mobilesystemms.
The application worked no problem on the old 1.6 Android based Rom. What i reported issue aopears on my newly burned CM6 Froyo ROM.
The interesting thing is that i can see the application in the application manager. And, i can even remove it. Just found no way to launch.
I've already tried two different ways to do the install, one of them is to copy the apk to sdcard and install the apk in phone with Astro File manager; the another method is to install the apk from my PC with 'adb install' commond.
Does anyone has a clue? Thanks.

I don't know why you don't have the icon, but you might be able to create your own icon for it using AnyCut or a similar app. I believe this can only create icons on one of your home screens, not your app drawer, but it's better than nothing.

Have you added anything to the phones memory? I remember it gave me that message when I first set up my custom boot. But other options can be try a reboot or a factory reset

* Cache Cleaner from the Market
* Check 'Settings > Applications > Manager Applications: Downloaded'
---> This shows all your downloaded apps, including their sizes. Look for the large files and try to either move them to SD (if you're running Froyo), clear down their cache (automatic with that Cache Cleaner app I recommended) or you'll have to just uninstall
Even after you've cleaned out some items, it can take a few minutes for the system to register the changes. You shouldn't have to reboot, but it might not be a bad idea to do so if the system isn't seeing seeing the changes.
thnx plyr
and thnx namuna well i need to upgrade to froyo i have the froyo us version for my phone but i dnt kno hpq to load it on my phn manualy plz help...

Market

Hello. Im trying to Buy apps from Market but it says "your device isn't compatible with this app" on every app. is there a way to buy apps for my hd2?
Go into your settings/about phone, and what is your model of phone listed as?
Maybe you'll have to edit your build.prop file and make your phone show up as a Bravo.
Mine is HTC HD2 in build.prop, and I've never gotten any message saying any apps weren't compatible with my device though, so I'm not really sure.I guess it's worth a shot though
Your build.prop is in your /system directory of your phone. You will need a file manager with root permission and a text editor (Root Explorer is both) to edit it. Look for the line that says ' ro.product.model=
and see what it shows .

So, is it possible to change the prop. to any phone ID? For example I found Nexus phone is compatible with all the apps on the Market compare to other phones. (I'm not surprised!)
Is it safe to do so? I have a HD2 with MIUI rom.
thanks
Yeah, you can do that, and it's safe. If it doesn't work, you can always change it back or change it to something else. You might want to go into settings/applications/manage applications, and clear your market app's data too.

It didn't work. I tried with other phone model name and google still see my phone as HD2.
Any ideas?
thanks
It may be your ROM you currently have that is causing some sort of the issue with Market... try updating Market first - if still the same change the ROM and go for another one... I got Typhoon CM7 - works just fine...

My Apps is empty in Market

Hi All,
There are already threads for this problem, but all possible solutions are not working
My apps are not showing anymore in Market.
Clear cache is not working
Clear cache and reboot is not working
Clear cache foreclose and reboot is not working
Market dokter Titanium does not work
I always get a agreement of de market but again my apps are empty.
Did a full wipe and reinstalled ARHD 6.3.2 then restoren my apps by Titanium
A see all the Apps in my Apps, but again later on... everything is empty
Somebody have same issues?
Cheers,
Peter
If you find an app you have purchased before, does it allow you to install it? Or does it say its "incompatible" with your device?
It is allowed to download it and install it. And i have no new phone... so maybe my account is corrupt at Google side?
Try the following, if you have superuser permissions.
In the file /system/build.prop find the line starting with ru.build.fingerprint, and replace symbols JFM to JJ7
If this not works, in the same file find the option ro.sf.lcd_density=167 and change 167 to 160. You may set another value, eg. 240.
After saving the changes you should reboot.

Care to elaborate? Or do I need to remove your post?
My ro.build.fingerprint is like:
ro.build.fingerprint=htc_wwe/htc_ace/ace:2.3.5/GRJ90/$:user/release-keys
Do i replace GRJ90 then?
ro.sf.lcd_density=240 this is my line
Have change this things but did not work.
clear cache did also not work again...

Better first try to change LCD density to 160. I'm not sure about fingerprint in non-Russian roms
Btw, are the permissions for build.prop set correctly after making changes?

Try everything nothing helped...
I use a build.prop editor this saves the file and correct the permissions.
Even uninstalled the market update did not work
IT is working again:
unimstalled the update of market
Clean data from google services framework.
Then force close
Clean data of market
Then force close
Reboot
Now it seems to work....
After update of market app the problem is back. Now i try the same steps as above...
After the steps above without remove market update i got my list back...
But after a change from portrait to landscape the list is gone again....
Seems like Google developers "fixed" something again. Try to ask their support

I discover it was a App problem. When i did a full restore of Titanium the problem was there... When i did every time 5 apps restore i use for long time the problem was gone...
I do not know that app gives this error.. because i delete all other apps what i think it was the problem and even do not use them anymore as well..
It is a update of something .. so my problem is solved.
Also, Market Fixer can help to solve the problem. Root required!
Market fixer did not work... have try that already.. but it is solved now...
Official fix for me...
Requirements:
Market Fixer app installed
Faith and patience
Intructions:
1) go to manage applications in your settings, tap view all and force close "Market" (don't delete any data)
2) while still there, also delete "Google Services Framework"'s data and force close it
3) run "Market Fixer", tap analyse market links, select all of them and tap remove market links ONLY
4) go to "My Apps" inside Android Market and make sure there's a Retry button on the screen telling you it couldn't communicate with the server, if there isn't, repeat step 2 and re-check
5) re-run "Market Fixer" to be sure the links didn't get recreated, and if none appear, reboot
6) go to "My Apps" as soon as you boot completely
7) if previously bought apps appear on the list, go to the free apps category and install a new one (this will recreate your market's database with working information)
8) check "My Apps" one last time, all apps should be there now
9) if you want, reboot once more and go to "My Apps" again to make sure everything's in working order with your "My Apps" list
10) dance the macarena, shoot a few hoops or just enjoy your victory like i did
11) make sure you don't re-link those evil apps to your market so you don't have to redo all of this
***As you could've noticed, the idea behind the first five steps is to keep the market from recreating the links or having to clear the data for Google Services Framework many times (both happen when the market's still running in background).***

[Q] [Help Needed] How to remove Applications labeled "NOT INSTALLED"

There are other apps in the applications Manager under the Downloaded Apps that are labelled not installed. I have tried removing them but to no success, I have even tried deleting some of their files from root\data\app and data\app-lib but the apps still exist as black icons still labeled NOT INSTALLED (See the attached Image). How do I remove them. Help Please
[EDIT] I have now noticed that every app I uninstall is added to that list and labelled "Not Installed". If you tap the Application, in storage details:
Total..................8.51MB (Size Depending on App)
Application.........8.51MB
SD Card app......0.00B
Data..................0.00B
SD card data......0.00B
Cache................0.00B
Its practically saying the app has been uninstalled but has left its APK and other junk in the phone.
Help on How to remove all these apps manually by deleting some files or any other method.
[EDIT 2] I solved my problem by using an app from Developer Dark3n from this post

If its on one of your applications pages, simply hold it and slide to the top to "app info" from there you can uninstall the app.
If you hold and slide to uninstall it wont do anything (had this issue before)

You need to download/install Titanium Backup from the playstore
and click MENU button and select "Destroy Market Links".
Reboot the phone and it will not longer display "not installed" apps.
Good luck!

I checked Titanium Backup but isnt that option supposed to unlink all apps from the Market, what about the Apps that I still want connected to Market?
I tried it but it didn't work, tried clean Davlik Cache via Titanium Backup but still the problem exists.

It only un-links apps temporarily then starts all over again linking only
those apps which which are installed.

Maybe they were installed/moved on/to sdcard but you formatted the data on the sd?

I haven't moved them to SD nor have I formatted the SD Card.

I get this for a few apps whenever something happened to a hidden folder on my SD card named something along the lines of Android_Secure. (something with secure.)
You can't see the folder on the phone, you need to use a pc to see it.
I have no apps installed on my SD, but when anything happens to that folder, about 20 apps stop working and say 'not installed'.
