Hey there,
all my downloaded apps keep on dissapearing from the list of installed/downloaded apps inside the market.
Don't get me wrong, they are still on my system and I can use them, just the market thinks they would not be installed.
I am on Virtuous 0.9 and done no restoring of apps or what so ever.
I did a backup a few days ago with Titanium but that can't be the cause, because they keep on dissapearing....
I can go to the market and just install the apps. They will download and install just as normal. And for some time they will just stay in the list of "my apps"...
But at some point (totaly random to me, maybe after some other apps I istalled or so) the list is almost empty... sometimes with one or two entries left of the most recently installed apps.
I know I can reassociate apps with the market with Titanium (well need the donate version...) but I don't know if it helps me, because the list keeps on dissapearing and I don't want to spend money on something that does not help
Does anyone know a solution for this problem? I don't want to reassociate all the time.
(Also tried to open the market database in an sqlite browser... well but failed, is there something to decrypt or anything I have to do in order to open it?)
Well thanks for any advice,

For all of your questions about the T-Mobile G2 and HTC Desire Z
Oh well sorry
Was browsing the false forum, when I desperatly pushed the post button...
Won't happen again.
Okay I typed it, it gave me the message that I am checked in...
Now will the apps stay in my market? Hope it worked but I can't really verify it because it hapens so arbitrary.
Thanks anyway and I hope it's done...
And... well could someone move the post?
It's like a shame

well the android market been acting up recently according to engadget, perhaps thats the problem?
I am having the same problem occasionally. Installing ANY new app seems to solve this for me.
Rather annoying though.
A restart usually solves the problem for me. I dont bother anynore though. As long as my apps are installed on the phone, I couldnt care less if it shows up in myapps or not.
Same issue here...
Just spent a better part of an hour redownloading and installing most of the apps back to wake up this morning to them not there anymore...
I guess my only care would be getting the updates...otherwise doesn't matter.

You may have a different problem if you have to keep downloading and installing applications. When my apps disappear from myapps and i search for them in the marketplace, it always shows installed which prevents me from downloading and installing the app again
Maybe time for a wipe then...:/

Well I think my problem is the same as huh28's...
And I thought of a wipe as well...
But since my initial post, no app dissapeared. Maybe it was the checkin, maybe it was the markets fault as Beagan mentioned (but I did not encounter other symptoms like the ones at engadged with the android market website).
But if it keeps that way, I'll never now... but well that would be great!
But as an exchange I lost my message-database couple of days ago... that's an other story, but a thought crossed my mind, if it could be related and could have something to do with the sqlite in the background. I'll keep an eye on that, but it's kind of hard to track...
i had the same problem but i went into the recovery and deleted the cache and davlik cache and restarted the phone and all the apps were back again!
maybe that will help you too.
I am experiencing something funky with my marketplace. Everytime I go to "My Apps" I get a server error. I can connect online and I can search for apps with Marketplace, it just won't show me my downloaded apps. Anybody having this issue? I think it started after installing AppBrain and uninstalling.
i had the same problem today but i didnt install anythimg.
Same problem here all day

Something similiar is happening with my marketplace. Im not able to download apps from marketplace on my phone. I haven't been able to do this for about 2 weeks. Sometimes It comes back up and im able to download but most times it won't work. I cant even flash roms anymore because I can restore any of my older apps.
Started with CM7 nightly 32 for me as well.
I just get a blank screen.

Same here searched the web and tried everything suggested : unmounted card, cleared market,cleared caches, logolged out and in google talk.
Works fine if u wipe everything, but any titanium restore of any app will break everything again.
Either I get "download failed" or "package is invalid"
Been happening for weeks.

getting it too but it works.
In other threads it was reported that Market was behaving erratically; group consensus, as it wasn't specific to any particular ROM/kernel/mod was that it was a Market issue and *not* a device/user issue. Convenient patsy to blame was the recent change to support the web-enabled Market and perhaps some ongoing maintenance around that.
HTH
Still happening to me. I started right after I rooted and installed Sprint Lovers ROM. Maybe its just a coincidence.
The market will either not download or will download and then return the invalid package error message. Happens on 3G, 4G and WiFi, even after I clear the market data and cache and reboot.
Very curious.

Few others to try:
1) Delete the .android.secure folder on the SD card. This is where apps you moved to SD are located. If you want to keep them, move them back to the phone before deleting this folder.
2) Power cycle Wifi.
Its probably an issue with market itself, but a few other things to try couldn't hurt.
My phone will start acting like it is downloading. But before it gets to even one percent the download just stops, no trace of it anywhere. Pretty annoying to say the least. However, every once in a while it downloads without a problem. Strange. Been happening about 2 or 3 days.

Folks, I fixed this on my EVO. The details are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=910956&highlight=invalid+package
As the title says. Random apps are disappearing from my phone, and also appear as uninstalled in the Play Store. Their data and settings remain intact, as re-installing the app restores everything to how it should be.
It seems to happen after the phone is turned off and on again, but not every time.
Anyone seen this happen before, and know what the cause is? I've been using HyperDroid for ages, and haven't changed anything recently.
Okay, before I start, this is the first time I see such a problem.
I know a similar case where the whole phone would factory reset upon each restart, but not apps uninstalling. So please don't flame me if I post some insane
Maybe it's your sd card dying (do they die?) and your apps are on it? You haven't changed ANYTHING recently?

The SD-Card is ok, and some apps are on it. It's not just SD-apps disappearing either - some that have been on the internal storage too. I have not changed anything since this started.
I mentioned this to my wife after I posted this thread, and she's been getting the exact same problem. However, she uses a STOCK HTC Rhyme! So it's not just me or the HyperDroid ROM or my HD2.
I'm not sure the apps are really being removed, but any sign of them in the app draw and Google Play is being removed. I didn't check to see if the apk was still present, as the last app to disappear was GO SMS, and I needed it back ASAP.
If/when it happens again, I will check for the apk and data files - I suspect they will still be there, as evidenced by the app settings being unchanged after re-installing the app.

don't forget that depending on your google account backup settings, the app data may be automatically being restored from their backup when you reinstall the app.
Im not saying it IS being restored, and you are probably right, the data probably is still there, just pointing out that that's not a certainty.
Ive seen apps vanish, but only a month or two ago, on the beta/pre beta JB roms, and the apk was still there, just suddenly not installed.
Hi guys... stupid me... I was playing around with Titaniuum Backup and read about the recommended job to integrate update into the ROM in order to free up space. Good idea, i thought.
So, I pressed it and was toasted successfully. Tried to start chrome again and was told that an error occurred and I have to delete chrome first. Well. I wondered as it is a system app. Never mind. Titanium backup pro solves the problem I thought. Deleted Chrome, restarted and installed it.
If now I want to start Chrome, it closes itself and gives a toast that "Chrome stopped working". I can press report or ok. The most interesting part is, that this toast appears 2 times. So, I guess that the process starts 2 times and produces a conflict.
Any idea?

Try clearing data and defaults of Chrome in "system settings - apps" and then long pressing Chrome and turning it to a system app in TB.

Hello, "undo sys integration" lets me know that there is nothing to undo. So, I can not execute this process.
@yuzgen: Chrome is still a system app and so, I can not make it one ( as it is already)

But you put "Deleted Chrome, restarted and installed it." in your first post. So now it must be a user app?
Try this!

1. Make sure chrome is closed.
2. Go to the app settings and remove all data from chrome.
3. Go into /data/data/ (with a root explorer) and remove any directory with chrome (probably: com.android.chrome),
4. Then remove chrome from your device.
5. Restart the device after that reinstall chrome from the play store.

Thank you Jeffrey. That solved my problem. If ever you come to Thailand, I invite you to a beer (or 2)
Recently I am having notification delays with my S7 Edge G935F. I have read through some posts on this forum and other sources and can't figure it out.
Here are some of the problems:
1. notifications are often delayed for more than thirty minutes
2. if I want to manually check notification when it does not pop up, unlocking the screen does not make the notification show, I have to actually launch the specific app to see the notification
3. It is more than just not showing the notification, when I am using some instant messaging apps (like WeChat), I can't see new messages coming in while the app is running in the front. I have to press the home button and get back to home screen, then re-enter the app, then the messages show up. This happens to many other apps as well.
4. Other things go wrong as well. For example, my Android Auto was set to launch whenever I get into my car and car bluetooth is connected. It is also delayed, by more than hours. It often launches long after I finish my driving and get back home sitting on my couch.
5. Downloading new apps from Play Store has problems as well. It downloads to 100% and just stops there, it does not start installation. I have to use Settings->App to kill Play Store and re-open it to "refresh" it, then it starts to install.
6. After installation of new app, it does not show up on my screen or app draw inside my launcher. I can see the app installed in Play Store. I have to kill launcher and re-open the launcher to make it "refresh" the app list then I can see new app inside the app draw.
I have also tried a lot of ways to fix it:
1. change app to not battery optimized -> didn't fix it
2. update firmware -> didn't fix it
3. factory reset -> works for the first day then it goes wrong again
4. flash to a different firmware (official ROM in different regions) -> works for the first day then it goes wrong again
5. use third-party ROM (Lineage OS) -> completely fix the problem, but too buggy to use
I can see the general idea of what's going wrong, some events happened (connected to car Bluetooth, new messages coming, app finished downloading, new app installed, etc.) and the system is not responding correctly. I am not very familiar with Android development but I feel like something is wrong with the "event handling" or "event raising" inside Samsung's Android system.
Please post reply if you have any idea or are facing the similar problems.
EDIT:
The phone is on Android 7.0, Build Number NRD90M.G935FXXU1DQER
You've stated that flashing the custom ROM solved the problem, so maybe you should try flashing a different rom that's a bit more stable.
From personal experience i can recommend the SuperStock rom. It's stock (obviously) and it's debloated and very stable with pretty good battery life as far as i remember.
there is some info about it here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/want-to-root-custom-one-stay-stock-t3631098?styleid=18 (ignore the root part).
Hi,
did you find any solution to this problem ? cause i got the same problem, and i'm going crazy... few months already and can't figure out what is the problem...
the temporary fix i've found is disabling the "google app" in application manager... it fix the problem but i can't use any Google app features (and i like using them...).
I've found few ppl experiencing the same problem searching on internet but no one with a real fix...
if someone more experienced can help debut this it would really mean a lot...
I think it is the battery optimization setting. You may check the settings>battery>advanced settings>optimize apps. You need to keep the apps un-optimized if you want the notifications and sync.
Also, you may check if Sync is on or off.
If these two does not solve, factory reset if you are on stock ROM. If on a custom ROM, you may check a different ROM
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Actually none of this works... The only thing that "fixes" the issue is disabling the Google app in the application manager... That's why its so weird...
The problem started around July/August 2017 for me...
As i discovered that disabling Google was fixing the problem, i assumed that they'll correct it by updating the app... But only one update of the app was ok, all others would make the problems reappear...
Messing with battery optimization settings doesn't change anything for me... Factory reset as well... The problem comes back as soon as the google app gets updated...
Try clearing cache and deleting data from the Google app the time the problem occurs
already tried... doesn't help at all...
