[Q] How to reinstall apps like Android Market, Gmail?

Hi Guys,
I am using rooted Samsung Vibrant and always facing issues while connecting to market and other apps (related to google account).
Can someone please guide me on how to re-install these apps?
Regards,
Nikhil
If all you did was root then I doubt the apps are what's causing your problem. Do you notice this issue at any particular time? Like are you at home or work when this happens?

wifi xoom app problem

Just bought the wifi xoom. It's awesome except for a few problems with apps. My Epocrates and Pandora app won't open (probably some other apps too that I havent tried), it just force closes. Tried uninstall and reinstall. I have reported this and seems I'm not the only one with this problem and seems specific to wifi only version. Both those appa are very important to me. Just wanted to see how many others are having this problem to see if I should go try to exchange mine or if this is a universal problem. Also if anyone has an idea for a fix, would really appreciate it.
Thanks!
Also, forgot to ask what custom roms are available and what are people using after rooting their xoom? I'm prob just retarded but couldn't find a good thread to see what was available.
Can only comment on the Pandora app but they are aware of the issue and are working a quickly releasing a fix, but in the mean time the Pandora .apk from the Nook color works on the xoom fine...
You can grab the apk from this thread

[Q] ' Maps' won't close

Hey guys, sorry if this has been posted before (I'm sure it has, but trust me, I've looked for it). Every time I check the battery option in android it shows that ' maps' is using the largest part of my battery. I've tried signing in and out of latitude within the app, just like the numerous threads on the internet suggest, but still no luck. All options related to sync or automatic updating have been disabled. Can anyone shed some light on why I can't get maps to close?
Same here, I just uninstallrd it , I need a fix

[Q] New Market and FC

Hello!
New Market on motorola Xoom Wi-fi every time I want to upgrade giving me FC. I don't know how to fix it. Tried to delete upgrade install on the Application but it is upgrading by itself. Tried to clear the cash, clear data.
Nothing helps.
Please, who know how to fix this problem? Looks like new Market doesn't work on Honeycomb.
Guys, help me, please? I really need your advice?
Thank you!
What market version do you have?

If you have Documents to Go installed, remove it. It has a problem with the manifest and Dataviz needs to update it, you can use the version from their website in the interim.
Or grab today's free Amazon Apps, Quick Office and Quick Office HD.
Tried everything. Market. 3.1.6, market 3.3.1.1 or something like that, all of them giving me fc.
Guys, please, I need a solution. Can somebody give some advice, please? Or maybe somebody have old mafket app flashable trough cwm? Because google doing nothing for honeycomb.

The problem is almost certainly related to an installed app, if you don't have Documents to Go installed, started removing apps one at a time until the market begins working properly and report back when you identify the offending app.
I had a thread for the same thing a page or so back.
documents to go didnt seem to cause me much grief (but i removed it anyway), but i did have a problem with Enhanced Email FCing the market (which i also ended up removing on the xoom, working fine on the desire).
noticed my market updated itself to 3.3.1.1 (or similar) the other night too - same problems as the last version.
just waiting for ICS update now and will see if that fixes stuff - I imagine it will and/or devs will update their apps to ICS
Do you have apps that you side loaded that the market reported as not compatible? I get the market FC any time one of my side loaded apps tries to update.
I found that it was a certain alternative market that caused me to "loose" all of my apps... I thought that it was the new market and even went back to the moray 2.2.1 to have the old market.
I figured out it was that other market because I uninstalled it and bingo, I had my apps...
I was pretty stupid and used titanium backup to "force" the market links and ended up with one heck of a messed up android market.... Now I am working through that..
Uninstalled the app called "Download all files" and sims like everything working for now.
Thank you very much!

actually i think i had getjar on there... that's missing from the supermarché now - I wonder if that was the issue
i was also guessing that by the time ICS hits the xoom - and all the devs update their apps for that most of this issue should go away
FWIW, I had the exact same problem I uninstalled Enhanced Email and the problem went away. Too bad, I really like Enhanced Email!

Android Market Error Message - "Your Device Is Not Compatible"

I've been struggling with this issue today, and just found the "solution" so I wanted to post it here in case anyone else has this problem.
Cause:
No Apps in the Market were updating, including stock Google Apps (including Google Maps!)
Every App - Including Ones that were installed on my phone would get a "your device is not compatible" error message.
Solution:
Change the Density size back to stock 240. Clear the data of the Android Market, and then everything should be running again.
Final Comments:
This was driving me nuts because I've had my density size at 260 since day one with my Atrix, and now this has become an issue "when it was never an issue before". Anywhoo... I updated all my apps, and then changed my Density back to 260 because I hate small icons/fonts.
Like I said this is a new issue that's never happened to me before, and possibly other Atrix owners may have the same issue, so hopefully this writeup may help somebody else out...
I think I remember encountering this issue before and got frustrated and just started everything over. Ill keep this in mind for future reference though, thanks!
Running MIUI Alpha
THX!
It's been driving me nuts trying to figure out why that message was appearing.

NP... Believe me I've tried EVERY solution that I could think of over the past 2 weeks on and off. When I finally figured it out and got things working, I dropped everything that I had going on and wrote that up.
Knowing that it helped at least one person made it all worth while...

A similar issue happened to me. A month ago i bought SimCity Deluxe, then i change my Rom and the Android Market said to me that this game was not compatible with my phone. The problem is that now it is not compatible with every Rom I flash, stock also.
density should be @240 not 260

having this issue with Block Breaker 3. just wondering if anyone knows how to alter build.prop for Atrix 4G to work around this annoying issue.
EDIT: solved.
edit build.prop (I used Rom Toolbox Pro), change the following (and ONLY the following):
ro.product.model=Nexus S
ro.product.brand=Samsung
however. once I got my game(s) working, I realized WHY my device isn't compatible: the display size (resolution) is too big. d'oh!

While 240 is a standard density, the Atrix screen is actually 275ppi. The moar you know.
thank you for the solution, i run into this exact issue time to time when i switch to a different ROM. I had this recently on the new Neutrino ROM with Instagram, but if i logged into google play through the web on pc, i could install Instagram with no issues. Only on the phone in the google play store it would tell me my device isn't compatible but it would still install if i did it through the google play website.
This is actually an issue that HP Touchpad users have been trying to figure out. Basically, the Android Market only likes specific DPIs to make things easier on app developers. So if its not 120, 160, 240 or 320 things break. IMO its stupid since good coding practices should allow an app to cleanly scale, but Google apparently feels otherwise.
It is possible to patch the market to work on other densities, but I've had no luck finding a patched version of the most current market.
I had hoped this was my problem, but alas didn't work. This worked for Navigon update, but for google maps it says my device isn't compatible, which of course it is. It actually doesn't even see that I've got Maps installed anymore.

I had that issue happen to me when I updated to 3.5.15. What I ended having to do was first uninstall all market updates. Then I replace vending.apk in the system/app directory with an older version and set the permissions to rwer--r-- (normally it would be rw-r--r--, but it wouldn't work for me). After that reboot the phone. Then go back to the vending.apk you placed in the system/app directory and change the permissions back to the way they were before you changed them. Next you should be able to launch the market and it should update to the play store after a few minutes. All my google apps were recognized again.
Fix
1. Go into Settings, Apps, All
2. Find Google Play - Clear Data
3. Find Google Services Framework - Clear Data
Should be OK now
If not, Install Market Enabler, redo above - then fake USA market once and should be OK.
