Android app for other devices - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development

I think, it's important to say, that not all Android applications will work on the TP2.
Circle Launcher for example. The necassary hardware is missing. But's hard to say what apps may work, because no app author puts in the app discription in the market, what hardware it needs.
How do you solve the problem? Trial and error or is there another way to find out, that an app can be used before you download, install and try it?

easiest way for me is trial and error. if the app dont work, uninstall it. lol i have over 120 apps installed and over 330 apps backedup on my 2gig memory card. Ive found that most of those work. Im just stockpiling for when i get my new device that will be Android only OS.

Why do my apps keep disappearing from Market's "Downloads"?

This is a seriously, SERIOUSLY annoying problem I've discovered.
Sometimes when I open the "Downloads" section in Market my apps aren't there. Well, a few are but most aren't. And there doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason behind which ones still show up vs the ones that are missing.
I don't switch ROMs - I run Fresh (currently the latest version).
The only way I can get them to reappear is to manually search for an app I already have installed and update it if an update is available. Then POOF all of my downloads are there.
Any idea what in the HECK could be going on here? This sucks because I can't see when an update is available unless I search for the app. It's driving me nuts
Try clearing the market data.

Thanks, that did it....still wonder what the heck the cause is though.
It may have something to do with running a custom rom, bit imo the Android market still has some bugs to work out.
Sent from my SUPERSONIC
It happens to me all the time. Cyanogen and I believe Ava-Froyo roms seem to download all of my 350+ apps that I have ever downloaded. Some roms only seem to "remember" or only allow me to download certain apps from the Market. I am thinking that if I don't have the option selected to download unauthorized apps from the Market, that could be one reason why. But, I have been wondering the same thing as the OP. Only a couple of the many, many roms I have used/tried will actually have "saved" all of the apps I have ever downloaded. It is a pain when it is a paid app that doesn't show up. I have to remember which ones I bought so I can re-download!
My issue wasn't the market data, but for some reason some roms when Apps are moved to the SD card it screws up what shows.
Try moving any apps on your SD card to your phone memory instead, then kill the market task and restart it
they should all show then
Same problem but with a twist
Not only do my apps keep disappearing from the market, but some apps won't aunthenticate with Googles license server, so I cannot use them! ARGH!

I can't seem to find it in the market, on my Archos. In fact, there are loads of apps I can't seem to find that others are finding just fine, free apps as well as paid. Have done the whole "market fix" thing several times, but no joy. Am accessing the market in UK. Any other fixes people have tried.

Market Enabler/ Market Access

Hy guys. I have Market Enabler 3.1.1.2 that you can download from the market. Its good, but only problem is I cant see apps (paid apps, or top paid...), i must search apps by their name and only then can I see them (paid apps). Is Market Access better, i cant find it on the Market? And this version of Market Enabler 3.1.1.2 when was it released, are devolpers still updateing this app.?

I have both, and I dont think its the app issue. Just apply fake, force close the market + clear data and run the market again. (Or FC market, clear data and then apply then run)
It should ask you to accept them TOS and should show the apps.
( You will later encounter more issues, like apps missing from your downloaded aps or when updating, but all can be fixed has nothing also with the market access/enabler)
I use Market Enabler. I'm in Claro Puerto Rico and the first time that I set the [us] T-Mobile market i had to wait at least 30 minutes. Then i had all the T-Mobile Market features. (Paid Apps... Etc.)
Sent from my GT-I9000T using XDA App
I waited for few hours but nothing changed, free apps are ok(have top free, just in) but paid, I can find them only by name(dont have top paid)

Then you didn't do it like I told you to do . Or you did it wrong.
I have the same issue as you described.
But when you force close the market and erase the data/cache. And apply the "hack" it has to open the apps.
Try to restart your phone and right after start apply the US fake. Then go to market.

This is what I did, Open the market/press home button/task manager/close the market/titanium backup/found market and wipe data/open market enabler/select uk tmobile spoof this provider/ close market enabler/ open the market no luck
same thing if I restar the phone
Didn't even know that titanium backup has that option good to know (I used always settings >>> applications >>> manage applications and here, force close/erase data cache)
Anyway, as said I have the same issue but this usually helps, try to spoof something else? Or some market fix from the SGS tools on your own risk

Ou my friend I would kiss you on the forehead i did it from manage application and it works now Do I have to do this every time I restart phone, when does it go back to old?
Hmm, dunno . It wasn't like this before, with the earlier versions of the market.
later it gets bugged, meaning you will see payed even with the hack , but you wont be able to purchase them , etc. Applying fake and you will be able. Just dont get scared like me and dont post messages on forums like "wow we got payed apps"

[Q] "My apps" list in Market never shows all my downloaded apps

I rooted and flashed CM7 on my HTC Desire a few weeks ago, and I've noticed something a while after doing so. I can never get my Android Market app to show my downloaded apps properly. At times, it just reverts to a blank slate. My concerns are that I cannot see update notifications properly, as there my apps are missing my market app list.
A secondary concern is that when I buy an app, I'll have problems re-downloading them, and might be forced to pay for it again.
If you need more information, please tell me.
OMG, I am also facing such problem!!
Cannot see installed apps like I updated flash player using market but later it just dissapear under my apps, skyfire missing, file expert missing!
Quite a number of downloaded free apps from market are missing under my apps!!
Currently using market version 2.3.4 from supernova rom 1.0.2.6?
Any help would be appreciated!
I did a bit more research, and this may shed some light.

[Q] How to disable apps from running in RAM

Hi,
I've been using CM9beta2 on my Wonder for a while.
Now my phone it's starting to get too laggy so I'm trying to free up as much RAM as possible (having around 50MB available doesn't seem enough!).
However, many apps are always running, even though I disabled everything I could in the settings.
For example, google maps keeps regularly eating 5-10MB RAM, sometimes google Play too, etc...
Is there a way to keep apps out of RAM?
How do you do it?
The only solution I find otherwise, is to get the apk, and install apps when you need them, then uninstall them immediately...

5. Download and Install Use Auto Killer Memory Optimizer Pro 7 (Here it is), when install pick a preset 'Extreme' or 'Ultimate' depend on your games requirement. Your Ram will always free and it will kill automatically un-use apps

Thanks, but... wouldn't Auto Killer Memory use more battery (or RAM) than having the apps running?
I mean, having smth that checks every few minutes running apps and that closes them... then they reopen again, and the Auto Killer closes them again, and so on... doesn't seem the best solution!
Am I wrong?
Tx.

It really depend , but I try it and actually getting better result .
With CM9 rom there is a way to disable the apps that you don't need , just go to setting menu, chose manage apps, click the apps that you don't use , and click disable . But you have to make sure the apps that you disable WILL NOT effect other apps that in use . :silly:
Hi...there are two ways to do what you want to do....
The first is as you say to delete and re install the apps as you need them.....
The other way is to NOT delete them, but to FREEZE them. (This is the better option, and the option that I use) there are several apps that will do this, titanium backup (paid app) and Gemini app manager (free) to name two.
I use Gemini and it does EXACTLY what you are asking. You have to be rooted in order to use either of the apps I mentioned....but if you're using a custom rom, I guess you already are. Both apps are available in the Play Store, and there's an online tutorial on how to use Gemini....just Google it.......
Hit thanks if this helped
CM9....I don't have to...I just......can
