Market no showing a lot of apps

Hey guys all of a sudden the app marker is not showing a lot of apps. I search for apps I know that are there like Rom manager but the search comes up empty.
Any help? I think this happened around the time the new market was released and my phone updated to it.

Ya i hear you, i can't for the life of me figure out what it is, but ever since my brother and i bought the vibrant at the same time he had google earth in the market an i don't... Anyways, my workaround has been if i can't find an app i need i ask for help here. But a more self sustaning method is to search android apps on a torrent website like pirate bay . org or bt junkie. If you have anything specific in mind i could probably help ya

get appbrain, then search for apps there, and it'll redirect you to the market, which it SHOULD be in there.

I managed to fix it. I installed the new market app and force stopped it in the manage applications settings and cleared the cached data amd rebooted.

I only tried with youtube, these other apps I dont will use and dont try with these. and I uninstalled it, these apps appears like youtube app in titanium backup
edit: I tried install google voice and google earth and no problem for me

I had a same problem on my Nexus S, what I did was, I navigated to /system/app/ folder on my phone with ES File Explorer, found the YouTube.apk and reinstalled it from there!
PS. Android Market and my phone showed the application as installed, and all options were greyed out (Open, Install, Uninstall)!

I fixed it with ep file explorer. Fix the youtube app
But still have problems with voice recorder thinkfree office and others that wont install and show up in my menu.

I had to do this several times because it kept getting messed up. Couldn't uninstall it normally but it didn't open.

But with titanium backup you need root access what i dont have. Then it isnot possible?

Try downloading an uninstaller app from the market.

What is that? Can you give me a name of one?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App

I cannot uninstall it with a free app. Google vpice or thinkfree are not even visible.
I can only see these apk files with ep file.explorer

My odd solution:
-Download GApps from Rom Manager...or wherever
-Flash GApps via recovery
-Reboot (Still no YouTube...)
-Go to Market
-Re-install Youtube from Market
When my YouTube "disappeared", it "appeared" in the Market as installed but the Open and Unistall buttons were greyed out. The icon in the drawer and the widget option were both gone.

I don't have that Think Free Office icon either in the apps drawer, but the TFO is installed in my phone. I was little bit confused about that thing, but now I see it's a common issue...?

I find it in xoom forum,thought it might help
If you have had a problem with the missing YouTube and/or Google Books applications, we have a workaround you can try.
Connect to WiFi network. (So far it looks like only WiFi Xooms have had this issue. Let me know if you have this on a Verizon Xoom.)
Go into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications
Go to the "All" tab and then scroll down and select "Google Partner Setup."
Clear Data.
Reboot your Xoom. (That is, turn it off and on.)
If this doesn't work, perform a factory reset (Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset) and try the sequence above again.
Please let me know how if this works for you.

How? Was it the suggestion to clear data from the Google Partner Setup or something else?

Anybody else having this issue?

Did have.the same issue but only lasted a little while until rebooted.
Just wondering, have you tried logging out of your account and re entering it?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Yes, i did login and logout from my account. I did solve my problem already though. apparently, when I played with the market tools in titanium I inadvertently linked several apps to google play that were not supposed to be linked in the first place. I had to go through them and unlink them via titanium and it fixed the problem. I downloaded MARKET FIXER to determine which apps needed to be unlinked.
Hope this thread would be of help to anybody who would experience the same problem.

I do wonder if they're tweaking some settings with the new play market... I did a hard reset (because I froze stock dialer.... Big mistake ;-) ) and since, on usual dpi settings that have always worked before, 200, 240, I'm getting the error my device is not supported... Googled it and there are a lot of new posts about this since the update. Dunno if it's related.
I do have titanium but have never touched the market settings...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

This is an old issue and it is caused by the Gallery and a few other system settings being mistakenly linked to the Google Play market which leads to the removal of the apps in My Apps section.
Indeed the best solution is Market Fixer as the OP has discovered above and the link is below:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kstudio.marketfixer
You usually only need to remove the system app market links to get it to work. This procedure needs to take place after every firmware update too. Before the apps return after using the Market Fixer, you can download a free app and install it from the Market to refresh your apps.

Yes that works perfectly, but you have to know that now your google account is corrupted for life with those system apps liked to it. Now everytime you flash or update a rom, you will have to go through this to get back a functioning market... sucks big time. F***ing titanium backup, and me for being stupid and use it to screw with the market... oh well, I have good health so that is what is important, it's just a phone...

[Q] Group Play won't update on GS3

I recently updated my Galaxy S3 to 4.3 and was trying out Group Play.When I open the app it gives me a message saying I need to update the app and when I click "install" I get a box saying "Currently unable to download. Please try again later." Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?

Hello, Just try this app for the time being
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.avrapps.chorus
Turn your phones into a makeshift speaker! Play songs on multiple phones at the SAME TIME (Similar to Group Play on S4). Lose yourself in the music, the moment you own it.

Thanks. But has anyone got an idea how to fix this?

By trying later .
By uninstalling from Play and reinstall .
By asking in the correct forum you are more likely to get an answer ..Use the report button and ask a mod to move to the correct section .

Browsers Won't Connect Anymore!

I've searched the forums to try find help with my dilemma, but to no avail. My GS4 is stock rooted on 4.4.2 (for a WHILE now), & for the past 2 days, I can't connect to the internet via stock browser or Dolphin. Wi-Fi or LTE, when I try to access my browsers, they crash! I can access the play store & play games, but just can't open my browsers. I've uninstalled a few things using Titanium Backup, but don't think I've erased anything browser-related. Any help is GREATLY appreciated :banghead:

What about YouTube? Other sprint phone's with the same problem? Did you try ##72786# to reprogram your phone?

YouTube works fine. Didn't try to reprogram the phone, but found out that Chrome browser connects just fine. Just not Dolphin & stock browsers.
