How to turn off Market auto DL - Droid X General

Is there anyway to turn off the automatic market downloads that occur whenever you flash a new rom?
Whenever I wipe everything clean and install a new ROM I like to start with a fresh slate and selectively install apps... I HATE opening up market and seeing that its already auto downloading 80+ applications

When you flash a new ROM and it takes you to the setup screen just 'skip' setting up your Google account and it won't auto d/l, or you can go into settings/applications/ and force close the market app as well.
I do the former mostly, and use Titanium Backup Pro to batch reinstall my apps..Or sometimes I'll just leave the phone on the desk and come back in a 1.2 hours and it's all done. Either way works.

I have the opposite problem. It won't auto install any of my apps on a clean rom. Anyone know why?

ROM manager

I just flashed over to the nameless Rom and when I went to run my batch of apps from titanium Rom manager was gone. I tried to download from the market but it keeps coming up unsuccessful. Checked all apps to see if I could remove it and then reinstall but its not there. Any thoughts?

Do you see the app in the "nameless" folder?
Good call my friend. Interesting layout with this Rom. Kinda like it just got to get used to it.

Go in to Applications > Manage Applications > Market > Clear Cache. Then reflash and you should have it. The Market is constantly being updated by Google though, so it might not work with the newest market.

market, download list is empty

Finish updating to version CM6 1.0.2 and entering the market, appeared all applications that had on the movil, but after installing a new app, it turns out that the above are gone and there are only 4 app's on Market dowloaded list of where are they?
i also have the same problem b4, so right now i always back up my market updater first and then market app using TB. i think the problem is i oftenly use ATK while market still updating online...
if ur still in eclair try this : close market first maybe use atk, then go to manage app, clear data / ca cache for download mgr, checking svc, all Gmail & Gtalk, and clear cache for market. if it dont work try to clear data for market..
if ur market still doesnt show any app that u already install(should be installed&download from market).. sometimes it needs to update online (not sure how long) ..
if ur using custom rom, checking svc wont available at manage app, and gtalk & gmail only shows 1 app each. at eclair gtalk & gmail appear as 2 app each..
sorry 4 my bad english.. just trying to help..

my market also didn't show some apps (stock 2.1) but it was a google issue. My best guess is that they're having problems with market while opening the buy options to new markets.
My problem resolved it self after a week or two from showing no apps to 2-3 apps, and then after a week or so they were all there. Be patient =)
Premium versions of Titanium Backup and MyBackup root have an option to link apps to market.

Try to clear data and cache. I did this few months ago and it helped.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928080&page=2
in that app, select the market app (in the lost list of apps)
a popup shows, select wipe data
when done, press the back arrow, then menu, then market doctor
follow the prompts to restore broken market links
go to the market, accept the disclsore
everything should be okay now.
thx for the link.. now i dont need to back up my market data again...

Cleaner than "clean ec07" ?

I love my Continuum.
But... it is so much "noisier" than all other Android phones that I tried!
By "noisier", I mean constant bombardment of the system log by all the applications that run there and, most annoyingly, random interruption by unsolicited notifications, messages, RSS, etc.
This gets in the way of certain applications that I run in the foreground, so I tried an application called "Android Assistant" to help kill unneeded applications/services on boot. It doesn't help, as the system seems not to allow killing certain processes.
Is there a Continuum ROM that's cleaner than the latest ec07?
Is there a CyanogenMod ROM for the Continuum?
Frankly, I prefer keeping the existing ROM and only install a Market application that kills on boot all the the applications that I don't need (e.g. Market, Gmail, Corporate Email, etc.), but is there such an application that really works?
Thanks!
Titaniumbackup or a root tool to uninstall bloat / apps u don't use. That's short of setting up a kitchen and cooking ur own rom.
PS I'd try tib first cause I remember the trouble u had with flashing the rom to begin with
Pss

My ROM is less bloated, but it still has like Gmail for example
I enjoy a very minimulistic device with very little clutter and apps.. I am currently working on a rom based on nuckin's, with a few tweeks, apks removed and some added to my liking. i am currently flashing the first test. Hopefully with a day or two, or even possibly tonight if it doesn't get to late i will post it up in a beta form.
Thats what Im talking about when are we going to get Cyanogen to make us a rom

Good memory!
I actually took a look at TIB and the task of deciding which application or service to uninstall looks daunting.
This is especially scary when I am prompted by the following warning when I try to uninstall via TIB:
Some system packages are needed for your phone to work properly. If you un-install the wrong package, it's your fault and you may need to reinstall your ROM !

How do I know up front which system packages I can uninstall? For example, if I uninstall Gmail, will the Market stop working?
For example, I uninstalled a few applications that I don't need and now I am getting periodic "Force close" messages for the following:
hiddenmenu - com.android.hiddenmenu
Messaging - com.android.mms
What is "hiddenmenu"?
I am attaching a text file listing all currently installed APKs. If you could provide tips which ones must absolutely remain on the phone, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

well i think we could do something with CM as soon as/if we ever get an open source kernel newer than 2.1update.

Auto ReDownload Apps

Any apps out there that keep a database of your installed apps and allows you to auto-reinstall if you say flashed a new ROM?
I figured it must exist since it doesn't seem like a difficult concept, I could be wrong.
I use appbrain.com to reinstall apps from the market.
I use appsaver to save apks to sd card and file expert to reinstall multiple apks from sd card.

Appbrain is okay, but there is nothing automatic about it. Is there anything out there that will install and you won't have to accept permissions for each application?
rooted or non root solution
if you are looking for a root solution, you can always use rom toolbox or titanium backup. If you plan to buy one to get the completely auto data + app backup restore, i suggest rom toolbox only because not only does it manage apps, but it has many other features.
if you are looking for a nonrooted solution, you can get an app on the market to pull you apks and then manually install them as previously stated by someone else.
I remember one rom I installed over a year ago it had auto setup or something enabled where it download every single app I had ever installed from the market. No pratically really.
Its called cyanogenmod
