Anyone else had an issue with this? No disclaimer on first run of Market and no paid apps show up.
Anyone found a work around yet? Tried changing fingerprint in build.prop but no dice.

It's dev related when I'm trying to figure out why people are having problems with my ROM...

that was not apparent from your first post (at least not to me)
sounds like your rom is available? if so, why not clarify this q in your rom thread?

I'd say it was dev related, and it seems to be affecting multiple roms, so this would be a perfectly valid place to ask this question.

very good, thx for the additional info
thread stays where it is then, gl solving the prob

It doesn't look like a new issue, first hit on Google for "missing apps in market".
It appears to be affected by the country you're browsing from. I have a user in the UK who can see things like Pure Calendar and Abduction World Attack just fine, however a user outside the UK cannot see them.
This appears to be new with the WWE OTA update, as the Taiwan based ROMs appear fine for the most part.
That said, we had a user on our Superhero build that downloaded and installed a paid app, he switched to VR11.9 and couldn't see it anymore. It remained missing after a downgrade back to Superhero.
What the hell Google..
I asked this question in the VR 11.9.1 thread as well, but moved it here as itr seemed more like the right place.
Can you try searching the market for aldiko, there should be 2 version, paid and unpaid?
The paid one is also protected (installs to/data/app-private) and that is the one that doesn't show.
I'm seeing other paid apps in the market, but not paid/protected ones. e,g, Extended Controls is paid but not protected and I see that just fine.
Aldiko paid version doesnt show up
No, it would appear that normal paid apps are showing up, however protected apps are not.
I scanned the QR code for Aldiko Premium (protected) as a test (here) and it cannot be found in the market.
Looks like it's not just us having the problem.

The one that went:
RUU 2.73.405.5 ->
OTA 2.73.405.93 ->
OTA 3.32.405.1_R2
Oh, and by the way, I did have the disclaimer when starting the market for the first time, so I don't think that is connected to this issue.

ditto. note: I'm in canada, in case that's relevant, using the new euro rom.
Its a joke as I paid $29.99 for Slingplayer last week and with the WWE update I cannot view it from here in the UK.
Had to ditch the WWE rom for now.
google's looking into it now:

You're on stock I suppose?
Mine is still Downloads, but I remember the Eris leaks had a verizon tab with just some of their apps.
You'll probably see sprint apps listed for download under that tab.
I get this too and now I can't download or update any apps. They get stuck at "Starting download..."
I am using a custom rom called blue echo and this tab popped up all of a sudden. My "downloads" is now under the menu key
It seems to me like sprint recomended apps maybe?

I Got... Version 1713
1.713 here
1713
My Market shows Apps / Games / Downloads
Running Darch 2.7
Running stock with root and my market doesn't have a sprint section.
once you clear your market cache and reboot you will have the "sprint" tab. yay /sarcasm

Maybe your sarcasm is truth, because when I first saw this was after an clear cache of the Market...
Yeah, it showed up on my phone yesterday after a reboot.
I am running Darch's 2.2 RC1, so this definitely has nothing to do with 2.1 or Sense. I'm assuming any ROM that identifies itself as Sprint with the Market will be showing this new tab soon enough.
My wife's Samsung Intercept isn't showing it yet, but I haven't rebooted her phone to see if it shows up.
This development is quite disconcerting, if for no other reason than that I took the necessary steps during root to disable OTA updates. So how the hell did they manage to pull this off, and without the slightest indication that anything was even happening?
Yeah this popped up on my rom last night. Compared it to my wife's phone and she had it too. Damn you SPRINT!!! (Again)

Because this is something Sprint had Google do. Nothing has changed on your phone, things have only changed on Googles end. Google is simply providing different information when you launch the Market app.

If nothing has changed in my phone, then why does the menu button now include a Downloads option, which didn't exist before? Please explain how that can be, if Google is simply returning different information when my phone submits a Market query.
I'm really confused here ... what you're telling me doesn't fit with how I'm understanding what I'm seeing.

Possibly. Maybe the people who aren't seeing it have a non-Sprint PRI, like how when we had the early 2.1 ROMs it would show a Verizon tab.
I rebooted my phone this morning and thats when I noticed I also had the Sprint tab and the Downloads is now under the Menu. I havent tried to download or update any of my apps yet though. Other than that everything seems to be normal as ususal.
I'm running the latest froyo build and mine now says sprint.

It's a weird bug
after installing the latest market 2.2.13
it lost all my history of installed Apps
even if i re-install the missing Apps it will show momentarily there until i reboot the phone
Can some body else confirm this issue?
it will show all my purchased Apps as "Purchased" but not "Installed" even when the Purchased Apps are already installed in the system

I don't have that version of the Market yet, but sure sounds like a bug.
I think Titanium Backup (Pro) has a "fix market links" option...maybe running that will fix you back up.
I've got up to date market and 2.3.2... apps are missing in the market, my fave being Clockr (shallow vacuous person that I am)....
It showed up in the market before - it doesn't after the 2.3.2 update. Sound familiar?

i tried that already, but no joy
it only does it until the phone reboots
Clear Cache from Settings/Applications/Manager apps...?
Maybe a Dalvik-cache wipe also from CWM?
I'm sure you've tried those already, but just in case you haven't...
yup, already tried all of those obvious things
thanks for trying though
anyways that's why i think it's a bug
waiting for the next market update to see how it goes
Market apk
Could you upload that vending.apk with the version 2.2.13 please? I cant find it anywhere!?
I guess I'm not the only one experiencing this. I did an exchange and this one already had the new market installed (build date was 1/10/2011)...
I added my Google info and waited for all my apps to load up like my first three Nexi ... nothing.
Just never bothered to root yet. Oh well..

Not really. I have 2.3.2 and old Market, and Clockr is definitely there. It's not a protected app.

Clockr Evolution is protected... soz, my mistake, should've been more specific.
But what I was driving at is that since the OS update the market lags until Google fixes something to allow that OS to see protected apps. Suspect 2.2.2 N1 users are having similar problems...

I can confirm this has happened to me too, on 2.3.2 stock, no root. My protected apps are missing from the market, ledgerist and pacman championship. They are already installed, but they are not under "my apps" in the market, so if an update comes I won't be able to see it.
I read somewhere that it takes time after an update for the market to show these apps again, not sure if that's true.

It does, but only because Google is lame in this regard. When the OTA pushes out, update the Market servers to recognize it. Sheesh Google, how hard a concept to get is that?
Guess we'll have to wait it out until they update the device's profile on the market again.
I've just lost all my applications in the market. They are all installed on the device but market shows only 3 apps.
Did you find the solution for this problem?

flash a US/WW/TW model rom

Be very careful. There are many apps that are malware that have been removed from Android Market, but most likely exist elsewhere.

yes that is the thing ppl should consider
So, I already know it's possible to side load the new market but i thought i'd point out a difference i've noticed between the market APK and the OTA market.
In the sideload version there is a limit to the amount of apps in the lists like "top paid" and "top free" or "editors choice"
In the OTA version there seems to be no limit and it goes on for quite a while.
It also breaks the ability to install apps that aren't available in your local market via the MarketEnabler trick that fakes the MCC/MNC SIM ID's.
There's no real benefit to the new market unless the video's are available in whatever country you're in.

by OTA and APK market do you guys mean the old 2.3.6 market and the new 3.0.27 market respectively? why does the title say new OTA market? what am i missing here? lol
anyway, when i was using litening rom the market there had no limit but when i switched to stock and installed the new market through an apk the apps showing had a limit and some known apps actually didn't display unless you searched for them.

I assume OP is talking about the market apk which you can install manually and you can get from various sites and the market update which is being pushed by Google these days and is "the most official" one, if i can use this term. Basically the same version, but looks like they behave differently. I didn't get the official update from Google yet, but waiting for it, no point in installing it by myself.
I was also wondering that why no market update here.
Could it be because of a custom ROM? no? Just have to wait in Finland..

It is probably being rolled out regionally based. I read on a tech site that it should come to Europe this week. We'll just have to wait and see, unless you wanna install the apk yourself.
I have the sideloaded version installed and I don't have this issue, the list goes on forever for me. I have version 3.0.27, maybe you sidedloaded an older version?

Yea this is exactly what i meant, sorry if my first post was a little wonky.
My atrix seems to have gotten the update but nothing thus far for my sgs2
What is seems is that the updates of the market app are not coming at the same time in all phones. Both my HTC and Samsung didn't get the update yet so we guess it is better wait than update the up for ourselves.
