uninstall program empty

Not sure if anyone else having this problem, my universal shows zero program installed. Problem started early this week, and now I can no longer install any program, which is understandable since install/uninstall program can't query correct system software state.
Anyone has any solution? I really hate to hard reset and reinstall all my software again.
I am running Jwrightmcps's WM6 ROM ver. 2.02

I think this is due to an corrupt or incorect installation. I've had it a view times on my Smartphone and once on my PPC. The solution for me was to remove the apps I had installed last. You can do this using ActiveSync

CoPilot cant be uninstalled from your phone there are some threads already about it here... Have to wait tilll xda-devalopers come out with some uninstall tool or the CoPilot comp. ...

has anybody already written to HTC or CoPilot asking for a uninstall prog? ...
if so - it would be nice if you can post the replies from them!

I'm sorry but this really is a scandal. I always scan the license agreement quickly, but I didn't find anything at the time. Thanks for your replies. I hope some XDA developers finds some way to uninstall it.
I'll keep trying, but I'm not an expert with mobile phones like some people here are. The weird thing is that I didn't know you can change something on the phone that will always be on there. without a rom update.
(copilot did obviously)
So that's good but also a bit scary news, that with only a installation you can change the ROM. (well it's news for me)

Have you contacted either HTC or Copilot? What was their answer?
If you believe this is such a scandal, perhaps you should.

well, contacted copilot and still waiting for some reaction.

hi, if copilot is preinstalled in your phone, you cannot uninstall it unless you flash your phone with a new rom (without preinstalled copilot). better wait for HDSPL in order to flash other customized roms.

All I want to do is install a full version of CoPilot

All I want to do is install the full licenced version. When I do there is obviously an old licence key somewhere, when I launch copilot it bombs out saying an incompatible licence file exists and doesn't give me the chance to install the propoer one I have purchased. I'm going to call ALK on Monday but does anyone have any ideas in the meantime?

How to hit your query to ALK?

Pocket Legends APK

Does anyone have the Pocket Legends APK released yesterday?
I would be so very thankful if someone could supply me with it since it is the only bloody app that refuses to download from the market.

having the same problems on my phone as well.
had my mate next to be download and install it but weirdly the apk doesnt exist in data\app or system\app....
but +1 i want the apk too

Can't he do a search for the .apk?

yeah we searched for pocket* using root explorer with no results. Unless you know what its called..

Get him to uninstall it, get the application installation tracker, reinstall and it should say shouldn't it?

he tried to uninstall it and it made his launcher crash. now it doesnt show up in his app drawer after he rebooted his phone. he went to market to uninstall there and now it will only download but not install. It just hangs at the installing status.
hes not too happy anymore haha...

This apk is impossible to find, even apps like apkshare won't find a trace of it.

Scratch that, I got it

Mine failed first attempt to download from the Market, second time went fine. Awesome game

nice!! thanks mate!

I'm still having issues with this. I've downloaded it to my Evo using Myn's rom, wont install. Donwloaded the apk from here, still wont install.. flashed CM6 and still no luck. Is it not compatible with the Evo or something?

It originally installs on the SD card, and is 40(!)MB, so make sure you have space.
Mine also installed 2nd time from the market, and it's fun to play! I'm happy to see and MMO finally on android, I was craving for one! A bad point is, that it seems you have to pay a lot of extra to buy +dungeons, items, etc. No good....

Really nice with BT Mouse and TV-Out this one!

Thank you for the link

1.5.1 is on market but problem with download still here ( plz can anybody upload it somwhere?

:/
I have the same problem
I dont understand, what is so special on this aplication, that its not possible download it from repository of market. Other applications are downloading correctly.
When I press install, It seems that it will start downloading, but after few seconds apears download bar, where is nothing happening. I am user of Desire with Leedroid froyo rom. I tried clean market and download manager data, but problem is still there.
Do you have any idea how to resolve it?
Meantime can someone upload .apk file of version 1.5.1?
Thanks and sorry for my english.

Ah yes, the game has been updated (to 1.5.1), the earlier APK is not usable any more. And for me it appears to actually download it, just not install it.

same to me...can't install the game from the market .
and i have the earlier apk version

Thanks for the download link!

[Q] Market on Defy? How?

Hi All,
After having HTC Windows mobile phones for quite a few years, i've gone to an Android Motorola Defy.
Its frustrating for me to get used to, I love the idea of Cab files and the simple installs. The .apk system seems to be the go, but my question relates to the Market.
Is there a market app for the Defy? If so is there any reason for it not to be there from the start?
I setup a google account, but there isnt a market in the launcher, i have been through searching for the vending.apk which another site had said was the market installer.
Tried downloading a market.apk file but it has a parsing error...
Used astro file manager searching everywhere for anything i thought could work.
What do i need to do?
Any info/suggestions welcome!
Cheers,
Nathan.

thats strange, what rom are u using?

Its a stock rom, literally only got the phone today!
From the about phone details
moto_version.2.54.0.mb525.Retail.en.ME1
firmware version 2.1-Update1
Kernel 2.6.29
I thought it was odd to be honest.
My mates HTC Desire worked out of the box...as many others seem to.

Ok,
I think i found a way round it, after a bit more searching i found a vending.apk that works on this rom.
Heres a link in case anyone has similar probs, there is an Apk file in the zip file in the system/app folder, running that on the defy it had an error on install but closed and restarted and all appears ok!
http://www.mediafire.com/?qacks5flbor595z
Correction, - all appears ok, but after trying to install one or two apps it comes up with an error.
the application market (processcom.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly please try again. (Force close)
this is a bit odd as it browses and does everything as normal untill it begins to download then crashes.

thats the first time i see 2.54 build
I thought 2.51 was the latest official

It seems that hard to know whats going on with it all the motoblur stuff and the customised roms, thats what i hated about the Xperia X2 with sony ericsson not releasing any substantial updates.
Most of the Defy's in Australia are the telstra next g (850mhz/2100mhz) I got a (900mhz/2100mhz) for use on Vodafone, and if i change to optus it will work on that.
I wouldnt mind seeing a Telstra version close up, might try checking them out at the telstra shop and see if they have the market.
Will keep mucking round with it, won't be long and i'll flash a new rom.

now thats strange ... any Android phone that meets google's system requirements, should have a market app "out of the box"...

Tried a few attempted solutions including a market enabler apk but no luck..
Anyone have any clues what i can do??

Very weird! I have never seen any android device without market app out of the box. Have you tried a reset to factory settings? Do you see the Market app in Settings--> Applications--> Application Management? (The translation may vary because I use defy in my native language).

the latest unofficial froyo v3.4.3-3 UK Tmobile Blur also not include market app

Yes, me too.
And Market never has any error in my case.

If you do find it listed here you may be able to use it with an app like "Better Cut" by creating a shortcut for it. Of course, you have to find a way of getting that app onto your phone, such SD card etc.

Narf, where did you buy the phone? I see complaints from some users about the same issue and when they called the manufacturer (in two cases from a Samsung forum) were told this:
"I spoke with Samsung tech support in the UK and based on my IMEI they determined the phone was grey market imported from the United Arab Emirates where the Market app was not installed. There was nothing they were prepared to do to remedy the problem. I'm returning the phone to eXpansys UK now. "
"Have just finished speaking to Samsung and based on the IMEI and firmware the phone is also from the UAE and they are unwilling/unable to support it. It was purchased from http://www.crescentelectronics.co.uk"
Quotes came from here: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Android Market/thread?tid=378157a41cd6df08&hl=en
In one post on this forum a UAE user was able to get market on his phone by changing his IMEI number.

Adding Android Market
Hi,
I don't know the specifics of you ROM version but like you, my Defy (on stock Froyo from China) did not have an official Market installed on it.
But I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=896312
And I could easilly install the official market without any rooting needed and just by placing the update.zip file on my SD card and do the update by re-booting with Volume DOWN and power ON...
- - -
edit:
- controls are a bit weird on that mode: you have to press the volume up/down to select and the power key to accept.
- clear wipe the cache and the other option (can't remember the exact name of the 2 but it's clear and reset everything) after the update is successful and reboot your phone normally and you should now have the Google goodies [although google map is not the latest version available ...but probably updateable...].
Let me know if it worked! You can hit the "thank" button if it does ;-) [but real credits to the original guy on the link posted above]
edit end

Worth a try on yours...
Good luck!

1.1 Firmware mirror for NST

So I just picked up a nook simple touch and am eager to root it, I've done plenty with Android on phones, never an ebook though. I've been reading the material here and had a couple questions.
1.) It looks like 1.1 firmware is needed for most of the roots here, however B&N only lists 1.2 currently. Does anyone have a mirror to 1.1 or tell me how to get that, currently I'm on 1.0.1
2.) If I can't get 1.1 are there any roots that will work for 1.2? I've been following the thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346748 and it looks like it only works from 1.1 by the sound of it.
3.) Is everyone or anyone using the NoRefreshToggle? If so what do you think? Is it worth trying it out? Dangers of using it? When you toggle it off do you get greyscale back? From the sounds of the post, it's pure black and white with it on which is fine if when I disable it, it goes back to normal greyscale images.
4.) Did anyone find out how to turn off page animations in the kindle app? not a big deal, just wondering.
Thanks a lot, look forward to trying this out.

Here's a copy of nook_1_1_update.zip I pulled down from B&N a few weeks ago: http://www.mediafire.com/?h5kn1214gfjhkcg In the end I didn't need it, so I can't confirm how the upgrade works (the instructions said just put the file within the zip on an SD card and reboot)

Thanks for the link

Thanks for the 1.1 post link, however I updated to 1.1.2 and followed the instructions and everything seems to be ok, I can get email, install from the market place, only thing I can't do is search the market. A search just lists a blank page and doesn't find any apps, any ideas.
As for the Kindle question, after installing kindle app and seeing the performance, this isn't a big deal at all.
Still curious on the refresh toggle however, any ideas on that, have you guys tried it out? I may post there if I don't hear back.
Thanks

I have checked and as you said market search functionality is absent, it seems to be broken since the Googleplay thing.
As a way to regain it, in the mean time we get an updated market working, install Searchmarket.
The NorefreshToggle is still in early stages, but works quite well for webpages, etc.
Try it, there are no risks on it, on any program when you enable the app it will work, and when you go into a menu it will return to normal grayscale.

How do I install Searchmarket if I can't search the market for it lol ... Do I have to install it on my phone first, then transfer the apk over to the NST, then file browse and install it from /system/app ?
I tried NoRefreshToggle, it's interesting, like you said a work in progress ... Tried it with GReader unfortunatly it shuts off between Feed view and Article view which is a pain, but I think that's probably to avoid ghosting.
As for web page viewing, Opera Mini FCs on me everytime I open it, as does the stock browser, so I haven't been able to try browsing as of yet Still looking for a solution to that one.
Thanks for all the info, really enjoying the NST if NoRefreshToggle keeps getting better this could really be a killer device

I just use the Google Play website to initiate installs to the nook (it appears in my device list as "phone")
The included Opera Mini installation never worked for me (no FC nothing). In the end I fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling.

Didn't even know you could send apps like that to your devices, never had a need to try it before. Worked like a charm ... Opera is working now as well, thanks for the tips Really enjoying Android on the NST

So are you saying you are on 1.1.2 rooted and enjoying it?
Should I downgrade to 1.1.1 and root or just go ahead with 1.1.2?
I can't wait to try this out.

I can't speak to the upgrade patch from 1.1.1, I bought my NST yesterday, it had 1.0.1 on it, I upgraded to 1.1.2 then followed the rooting instructions for 1.1.0 or was it 1.1.1 can't remember, in any case, after rooting everything seems to be working just fine

RubenRybnik said:

It was 1.1.0, there was no 1.1.1

Is there any risk upgrading to 1.1.2 from 1.1.0? Would I have to reinstall google apps &c? Did anything change in between 1.1.0 and 1.1.2? (I have heard that they may have fixed the WiFi issues that were plaguing me a few months ago.)
