I'm not exactly sure what to ask to find out exactly how I need to go about fixing it. So, I will begin by describing the problem first. I was changing ROM's like I always do, when after flashing it I tried installing titanium backup. Not only did it not dl & install on that ROM, no applications would dl or install on any ROM. Even when I restored any of my previous ROMs that had been working just fine before! & also I noticed that I didn't have any of my apps on my SD card when I checked my applications in settings.
Can someone please tell me what I need to do? I have tried everything that I know to do!

Did you do a full wipe before installing the new rom?
If so, the next thing to try is go into manage apps, select the ALL tab, find market, then clear cache and clear data. The next time you launch the market app you'll have to enter your gmail ID again. Don't worry, you won't lose your purchased apps.
If that doesn't work, try resyncing your market fingerprint by bringing up the phone dialer and entering *#*#2432546#*#*

I have CM6 and I have a few issues and questions. First, I recovered by backup with Titanium after I flashed CM6 and Gapps. Before I had almost all of my apps on my SD card and everything worked fine. When I restored, everything was placed on the phone. A few apps weren't even showing up under my downloads in the market app. I then moved everything back to my sd card and apps with shortcuts updated, but widgets and swype are not showing up, even after moving them back to the phone.
How do I get the new version of android market for CM6? I tried downloading an app through the markets site on my computer but it did not download, or get forwarded to my phone, for some reason.
Which kernel should I use to overclock? Ive read a few posts and comments about a few kernels and some apparently cause more bugs and issues.
Thank you.
EDIT: Ive managed to find solutions to most of my issues. The only problem I'm having now is apps not installing from the Market website. Im using CM6 and flashed 2.2.11 of the market app to my phone. Whenever I hit install on the site it claims to download but nothing is reaching my phone.
That happened to me the only solution i found for mine was formating the sd card. First you should try to fix-permissions n then reboot if that dosent work id suggest backing up your sd data on ur comp n formating

When I do restores from mybackup pro it corrupts my apps and causes FCs. This has seemed to happen after I switched to gingerbread. Does anyone else have this issue? I am emailing customer support but they don't seem to have any suggestions.
Titanium backup.

I stopped restoring apps a long time ago, because of corrupted files. Its better to re-download them from the market anyways and run them off internal storage rather than sdcard. I do restore data like browser bookmarks and what not though. Tibu does seem like it is better for these type of things.
I have been experiencing the same problem with MyBackup Root.
I also switched from Android 2.2 to 2.3, stock MT4G to Virtuous Unity. After I restored my apps with MyBackup root, a handful of them force close on opening. I discovered that some of the apps which I had originally moved to sdcard prior to backing them up, need to be moved back to sdcard after restoring, and then they start functioning properly.
Unfortunately some apps, like Firefox, still force close no matter what. I've tried clearing user data, fixing the permissions in ROM Manager, but nothing would allow Firefox to work until I uninstalled it and reinstalled it. I've still got several other apps I would like to recover but have not had any success. Worst-case scenario I could go back to my nandroid backup and use another backup program like Titanium for those particular apps but it would be quite a hassle and I certainly would prefer not to!
Thanks in advance for any help or advice you can think of...
[Edit] Just noticed which forum this was posted in... Hard to say for sure if the problem is specific to any device or ROM or MyBackup in general, but it might still be useful.
The wonderful people at RerWare advised the following: In options, check "PM Binaries" and restore...
This has solved the issue for at least one of my apps, and I am now going to restore them all to see how it goes.
So I have MikG 3.1.1 with ducks combat theme, although I doubt that has any relevance, but up until today, my market worked fine. I could update apps, download apps, everything. But today when I went to try and download Instagram and then some games.... no matter what I do (Besides a full wipe and reflash.) I can't get it to work!!!
I've tried clearing cache, D-cache, data from market, uninstall market and placeing it into system/app folder with the modified permissions.... BUT NOTHING WORKS?
So what the hell can I do besides a full reflash? I really don't want to do a reflash because I ****ing hate putting apps back on my phone and recustomizing my settings
Might work if you use Titanium Backup to backup apps and settings, then do the wipe and restore from the backup made. Also probably wouldn't hurt to dig around for a market update

That's just it though, I don't mind TB, it's just a pain in the ass because some of the apps I have to actually DL from the market; if it's not working then I won't be able to restore all my apps. And I've tried other apk's laying around. I don't get it... This seems recent because there's a lot of threads I see from around the start of april but no possible fix, not for evo's yet anyway
Any help here guys it's driving me totally crazy. I've tried downloading an old market version before it got updated to "Google Play" and I can't even get it to open and update... WTF is going on here?
I literally have done nothing new to my phone in the past week. I was browsing apps the other day and downloaded pudding camera fine no problem. Wake up today to download another for my tumblr, but now everytime I try and wipe data/cache of Play Store, followed by trying to download something it FC's and will further FC, not even opening up afterwards.
I really don't want to reflash my ROM but it seems like I have no other option... Come on people, I know this issues has to be floating around with some kind of fix.
I don't know if this'll help, but have you tried booting into recovery and fixing permissions.

Go over to the Samsung epic touch 4g forum, go to themes and apps, find the thread "inverted Google apps" by rujules23 and go to his site. Download the market v3.5.16 for the evo, should just be called market v3.5.16 and not have E4GT on the end the E4GT version is specific to the epic touch and flash the zip in recovery that market should work for you, it will say market and have a blue and white shopping bag icon, it's inverted black with blue trim and modified to say market instead of play store on the icon. It fixed my play store problems when it kept acting weird(purchased apps saying they weren't purchased, FC's, apps incompatible, etc)

Yes I have tried. I've even tried the modded apk.
I will however, albeit being inverted, try the other suggestion with the flashable zip and post back with results
There's been a known issue with some of the new versions Google Play Store not downloading and throwing up error codes and such.
So I just downloaded one of the early versions until they iron out the kinks.
Here's the one that seems to work ok found here: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/download-google-play-store-apk-3-4-6/
Its the 3.4.6 version. Scroll down.

Tried the inverted, no dice. In fact, worse than before. I can't even agree to the TOS and it instantly FC's on me. At least before I could wipe data and cache and browse, until I tried to download something.
Going to try the previous version as mentioned. However, won't it try to auto update when I open it?
Still nothing. Constantly getting the error. The only difference now is I cannot even browse the market now. I aknowledge that market is changing to play store, it crashes... I open it again and asks me to accept ToS. Then instantly FC's.
Any other fixes guys? I'm beginning to think I have to reflash my rom which I really don't want to.
Any MikG users here can confirm if I can just flash the Update version over my current setup to maintain my apps and settings or will that break my theme and everything else? CUrrent theme is Ducks Combat
Did you delete the market completely before installing the inverted one?

Just re flash mikg it will wipe system for you but all your data will remain. I've had that happen with other things, you may have changed something that caused it and not known. Re flash, no wipe it will do the trick!

Reflash with the update version? Cuz the other version is a full wipe inside the zip. More laboration please?
And yes I did delete the Vending.apk, market.apk, reboot, install, reboot, and try. Still errors
*sigh*
Checked on some of my old posts and may have found a fix to my FFC camera issue which is unrelated to this thread. What IS related however, is when I was flashing it, I accidentally wiped my sdext and now I can't unlock my phone for some reason. Just my wallpaper and my status bar...
So against my wishes it would seem I have to reflash the entire mikg rom. (
However, in my previous post about simply reflashing the rom OVER my current setup, anybody care to explain still?
No worries guys, had to eventually reflash anyway and working even better than before. Making nandroid to prevent any future errors. Proceed with closing thread

Hey guys. I just wiped and upgraded from CM10 8/14 build to the 8/31 build. I always hate the arduous process of reinstalling apps (for some reason, the automatic restore of all apps from the Play Store has only happened once, I can never get it to happen consistently)
Anywho, I wiped, flashed the new build and gapps, and then rebooted and signed in. It decided not to auto-restore, so I decided to try and boot into Clockwork and do an Advanced Restore of only /data. Rebooted and I have all my settings and apps back perfectly fine. Is there a downside to doing this? It seems to have worked without an issue but I don't think I've seen people saying they do this regularly.
Also, does anyone know how to get the built in auto restore to work reliably? I have all the settings checked.
Thanks in advance.
I have done it numerous times that way, but as you go along, you will find that is not that reliable, use titatium or mybackup. Those always have better results. Either way is fine.

Titanium Backup is your friend! Its way more easier and you can transfer that folder from iPhone to phone. It makes life easier for us flashaholics.
