About app updates...

I did a factory reset on my phone and restored all my apps through titanium backup. However, when I go to downloads in the marketi don't ee my installed apps listed.having said that, do you guys know if updates will be affected? Are they based on the apps installed or the apps listed under downloads in the market? Thanks in advance!

Try market doctor in titanium backup. It can be accessed by pressing the menu button on paid version. Not sure about free version.

I personally use atrackdog for my updates as not all my apps show up in the market due to the same ordeal.

If you redownload it will fix the market link or like mentioned before you can get the donate version of Titanium Backup.
Its no big deal either way.

It shows up now... Though I may have to check the download tab myself for updates which really isn't a big deal. I'll try the suggestions you guys have me if needed in the future again. Thanks : )

Market saying I purchased an app, but I didnt

I went to download tapatalk from the market, but it says 'Purchased'. I haven't used this app before and cannot purchase/install it because of this.
Any ideas what I can do to solve this?

Try clearing market data.

This only ever happened to me when I used a pirated version of an app first, then tried to buy it. I like to try the app before I waste my money...lol...I can't remember if doing wat mentioned above worked or not tho.

had the same issue with swiftkey. it says i purchased it, but i didn't. but i could install it anyway

Try disabling automatic restore, and then clearing market data and cache to see if that helps.

Lol, I installed a pirated apk of Tapatalk, I deleted it after a while and I went to Market to look for apps after I rooted my phone, it told me that I had purchased it even that I didn`t but it still let me download it D

Huh ???? !!!!
I find it hard to believe Android paid app security is done on the phone !
I can understand perhaps the Market app getting confused, but that shouldn't let you update an app that was installed as a pirate version.
I develop apps and I've never been able to update my paid app from the Market after "sideloading" my app.
And customers who bought via Paypal outside of the Market are never able to update via the Market.

I know, but I didnt even have any credit card registered, ive tried the same thing on other apps but it doesnt work, i dont think that it was because of the ROM that I got it free but maybe an error occured at that time or something

Tried everything mentioned here. Even after flashing a new rom, it still says I purchased it. Even if I go to market.android.com on my laptop, it says I purchased it, but does not allow me to download it.
I downloaded a pirated version of the app so I could try it out for more than 15 minutes, I liked it so I went to purchase it, but with no luck!

Try to unchain the app from Market using Titanium Backup, then try to purchase it once again.

Try to downgrading your Market and then purchase. I did something like that with a app.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda premium

The only way it will work is if you create a new gmail account. There is NO other way, no matter how many times you clear data, or use Titanium to remove the app or downgrade market, it will always say you purchased.
Market enabler will also not work.
EDIT: Try this though. Flash the ROM, and when signing into your gmail acc un check the box that says keep this phone backed up with my google account. Do not restore previous backups.

I recently emailed Android Market Support Team, I had exact same issue. This is what I got in reply.
Hi Michal,
Thanks for writing in and for letting us know about this issue - we're aware that some users are seeing apps as "Purchased" but are getting a "Download declined" error. We're presently investigating this issue and will update you as soon as we have more information. I may be requesting further information about the circumstances of this issue, and I really appreciate your continued patience and cooperation in resolving this situation. If you have any further questions, please let me know.
Best,
Lynn

@Desire HD & CyanogenMod

Same issues here
Hopefully this gets resolved soon!
Been itching to play Order & Chaos... tried installing a "cracked" version a while ago, didn't work too well on my phone then. Now I have the Samsung GN and want to give it a try... says 'Purchased' and gives me that error

I have the same issue. This has especially been happening with Market v3.4.4. If you sideload an apk then sometimes Market registers it with your account as purchased but when it tries to access the app it declines as there's no actual purchase. I emailed Market support and got the same reply. It doesn't happen with all apps but with a few. It's quite a random occurrence. No way to reproduce it each time and no way to fix it from our side. It's a Google side issue.
Also, I'm not very sure, but I've experienced this problem with a few apps distinctly after restoring a backup using MyBackup Pro. Maybe it is something to do with batch restoring Market links, when you include apps that you haven't downloaded from Market. During regular usage of my phone, even with sideloading apps, I haven't noticed the issue repeating with any other apps. I only remember it happening after a restore.

Have the same problem with Swiftkey x. Shows up in the market as purchased when it wasn't.
But as I really like it I wanted to purchase it properly, but can't thru the market.
I've since purchased it thru AndroidIt App.
So all good now but any updates have to be done thru AndroidIt app as the market still says I've purchased it then says can't download cause i haven't purchased it!!!!

I have the same issue with Cut the rope and Mincraft PE. I want to support the developers and get updates but now I can't!

I've experienced the same issue before... but I was able to purchase from market.android.com site.

Registered just to say how i solved the problem of Swiftkey X on my galaxy ace. I uninstalled market updates, in manage applications, then go directly to Android market and purchase it, make sure the Market app doesn't automatically update before you try.

Sky Go is working ;)

Thought I would let you all know that Sky go is working on my SGS3. I check everyday and it's been updated. FYI my phone is not rooted .
Very happy now!
From what I've read and heard Sky has upped the game to prevent the new version from working on rooted devices, good luck if your device is rooted

I keep getting error 37 problem with the stream>??

Forget about what the date says, I check it every day and it used to come up with "Your device is not compatible" at the top, this morning that was gone so I downloaded it and it works perfectly on my SGS3. Anytime + and all, happy days.
EDIT. I've just seen now that they have changed the description in the app and have clearly put there that it is now supported on the SGS3
Date is still the 2nd of July so that obviously means nothing.

I love Sky Go and have decided, on balance, that I'd rather have it than a rooted phone. Annoying, but I've gone back to stock to get it.
I don't think the temporary unroot/hiding root apps work here, unfortunately.

EDIT: nevermind, did it myself. here it is (downloaded directly from the play store):
https://anonfiles.com/file/b141a753ee1187c821a79d0ec41db077

I updated to the latest version and it stopped working so i went and changed to stock ics same issue i eventually got it working today after i realised super user was still installed after removing the app it now works.
From this i guess you might determine that by having super user installed sky deem you as being a rooted device.

We need a good dev to hack the apk to bypass all this root checking bollocks very annoying and well over the top if you ask me.

Can anyone possibly help me, I have an SGS3 on uk-three, I have downloaded from play store and although it works on my home wifi it will not work on 3G.
I get SKYGO ERROR
3G network usage is disabled.
Go to Menu - Settings - Network preferences to enable streaming on 3G.
I cannot find network preferences, if I go into mobile network there is no Network Preferences.
I have spoken to Three tech support but they cannot help.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your reply, Skygo now works perfectly, with a superb picture.

I really want this, but am very happy with the rooted features of my S3. Hopefully a rooted fix will come out for this soon.

Install Google Wallet in UK....

HI i have install google wallet yesterday and its working fine.
1. Download the apk file and just install normal.
2. before launching the app go to google wallet settings and change your home address to a random US Address (You don't need to change everything just the city and the Zipcode and select US as the country .
3. launch the app after the setting it works fine.
4. then you can setup tap& pay .
5. go back to google setting and change your original address.
Download Link
http://www.filedropper.com/comgoogleandroidappswalletnfc_1
it works fine .
Thank you very much.

Have you actually successfully paid for anything yet?

would love to see if this is actually possible.
anybody know WHY google wallet isn't officially available (tap and pay form, not online) outside of the US??

There's no point. All of your payments will simply be declined.

are there any tap and pay apps that work in the uk??

The only one I know of is orange/Barclaycard which only works on s3 & s4.
Visa have said they're releasing one this month. But they said that a while ago and new recent news about it.

Not working on my nexus 5. After download it says cannot open file.

I had this installed and running in Canada for a while now. IO used it the other day for the first time at McDonalds and the payment was declined. The error I got was about it not supporting international transactions.

After I flashed a stock rom it appeared on my aussie n5. Noticed it while I was going through my apps on titanium backup and it was frozen. Just unfrozen it and it opens and all but since I'm outside us, it's useless.

Don't work for me, I installed it for tester and now I can't uninstall the app, I tried with titanium too. How I can uninstall this?

It installs fine but payments decline everywhere for me. I've tried Gregg's, Boots, MacDonald's and Starbucks

You can find the latest beta lollipop rom over here. It seems fairly bug free, but it is still a beta. http://www.needrom.com/download/s3-lollipop-v5-1/

You can just switch the root access and delete all that you wanted

Thank you so much
Can you please point me to some links about how do I go about installing this. I can get the phone to an adb prompt , and that's just about it.
Also if someone has had lollipop already on his jiayu s3 , it would indeed be very helpful if they posted their experience n terms of what works perfectly and what needs help.
Yes I am rooted and there is something very interesting I found maybe you can check your phone to see the stuffson your discretion

There is a chinese bloatwares called data_ gospel . When I break down the kind of services that runs -see the attached screenshot . They are also suspect. I dont think any of the ought to run. Could you check your phone to see if you got the same thing.

This has been mentioned a few times already. First time, perhaps, on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61141568&postcount=2836.
It is safe to remove.
What it does, nobody knows. If it correlates to the 'easy' app that, some time later, suddenly appeared, nobody knows either.
I do know that, without 'data_ gospel', 'easy' did not come back (yet) on my phone.
