Apps won't show up as installed in market - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I formated my SD, did a full wipe and installed Android Revolution HD.
For some reason all my apps reappeared (does google sync them when I log in with my google account?), but they won't show up as installed in the market.
I can't get any automatic updates that way.
Is there any way to make the market recognize my apps without having to manually reinstall every single one?
Thanks for your help.

Deleting data and clearing cache of the market in the applications menu fixed it.

[Q] Android Market

Hello,
So everytime I install Nightlies the Android Market restore all my apps (Or most of them)
I personally would rather use TB. And Most of the time the Market re-installs apps i deleted via the market! It's getting really annoying!
Is there any way of stopping it from DL'in or at least the Apps i dont want?
Thanks!
Every time you're at the startup wizard, uncheck the "Backup User Data" or whatever it's called, and it won't download your apps when you sign into your Google account.
Perfect! Thanks!
Better idea: You don't have to wipe data between flashing nightlies. Only your cache and dalvik-cache need to be wiped.
Oh? Haha.wow I feel dumb...

[Q] Incredible: Sync error and Google Services framework force close with CM7

All of a sudden a couple days ago, Gmail on my rooted Incredible (running CM 7.1 and incredikernel) began acting sluggish, syncing poorly, and force closing. Soon thereafter I got a message reading Google Services Framework was not responding, followed by FCs of pretty much every app I tried to open: maps, market, voice, etc.
It happened once before due to an issue with Google Music sync. Turning that off, waiting a day or two, and resuming sync did the trick. This time I'm seeing sync errors with Gmail (on each of the 2 accounts I have set up), Contacts, and Music. All at different times. And nothing seems to solve the problem
I've tried seemingly everything to no avail.
Thus far I've: wiped Dalvik cache, wiped cache, rolled back to an old Nandroid backup, reinstalled CM 7.1, reinstalled GApps, reinstalled GMail app from the market, wiped all data and cache from Gmail/Google Services/Contacts/Contacts Storage/Calendar/Calendar Storage, and ultimately did a full factory reset through Recovery.
After reinstalling CM 7.1 + GApps last night, things seemed to be OK, but I'm back to everything FC'ing today. If I have sync turned off, I can use the phone. But even then, my wifi/radio icons in the status bar are permanently white.
Any ideas? I don't seem to have any corrupt contacts. And setting up a one-time sync of each Gmail account (including contacts and calendar) didn't seem to be any harm. Only thing I can think is if my Titanium back up had something corrupt in it. I did restore that (apps only, no system data) after factory reset.
Thanks in advance for any help
Are other apps syncing correctly? I'd try a fresh start WITHOUT restoring anything through titanium.
Thank you.
Is it possible to determine which files backed up through Titanium might be causing the issue (or otherwise try to prevent against this down the road)? Alternately, after a full wipe/restore through Nandroid, is it possible to restore individual apps from a batch Titanium back up?
I know it seems to be specific to Incredibles that the typical wipe of calendar/contacts/gmail doesn't get rid of Google Services Framework FCs... so hoping to be sure all bases are covered.
Thanks again!
Yes, you "can" restore apps in titanium but have to be careful. It seems like most people don't have problems restoring just apps. Some are even OK with app+app data. Its NOT recommended to restore system data, especially if you're going from sense to AOSP or vice versa. Personally, I redownload my apps fresh from the market, using the automated Google restore or the web market, which you can download apps straight to your phone from. I've never run into any problems doing it this way.
Sounds like my GFs problem too, except the FC'ing happens once and a while and I have to format the whole phone to fix it.
My Incredible with CM7 is having the same problems
I was using an older CM7 nightly which had been stable for several months.
Out of the blue, all my google apps start crashing, as well as the framework.
Force closes EVERYWHERE.
I loaded the latest nightly, and rebooted. Same problem.
Had some trouble with Titanium Backup destroying the functionality of my home button along the way... so I started from scratch (as much as possible):
Wiped the Delvik Cache, Formatted the Cache, Wiped the Data.
Installed newest CM7 and gapps from cyanogenmod.
Ran "Fix Permissions".
Reverted back to the included ADW.Launcher instead of the paid version I previously had.
Manually installed a skeleton set of apps, and used titanium backup only to restore data on a handful of apps that really needed it.
It was stable for a day, then the same force close issues with all my google apps and the google framework.
Rebooting the phone seems to help temporarily, but I hate having to reboot my phone twice a day.
I've been updating to new nightlies every day now, hoping that one of them will finally fix this problem.
Do I need to flash a new radio, perhaps?
What could I be missing?
When you do a fresh install, wipe system and boot as well data/factory reset. Also, try downloading and installing apps from market, not titanium (restore nothing from titanium). Your radio should be a 2.15 series, but also shouldn't cause this.
Found this thread looking for my answer and found a solution somewhere else, just as an FYI here:
The strange thing is, I'm NOT out of space. My SD card and internal memory have plenty of room. Then I remembered: The Incredible only has about 300 MB of application storage partitioned. Cyanogen seems to work around this problem, EXCEPT for apps from the Marketplace. They will still say there is not enough space. Other install sources (raw apk, amazon, etc), work just fine.
I remembered that I installed Peggle from Amazon yesterday, which was an 80 MB download. I also remembered I couldn't re-install Angry Birds that day because the Market said I was out of space.
So! I uninstalled Peggle and a couple more large apps I don't need, turned all my syncing back on, no DB I/O errors in LogCat, no force closes, no nothing!
So here's my diagnosis:
-HTC Incredible only partitions ~300 MB for applications+data
-Cyanogen lets users install MORE than 300 MB of applications+data
-Android services (such as market and sync) don't understand Cyanogen is doing
-Android services fail gracefully (like market), or not so gracefully (like Sync) when you are out of 'storage'.
-Making sure you have some "free" space in your /data/data/ folder (I have about 30 MB) causes these force closes to stop.

Market Apps Install Locally but not Via the Google Play Website

I'd appreciate some help. I'm running ICS 4.0.4 (AOKP M6) and I can install apps locally on my phone, but when I try via the web client it doesn't work.
In fact there's a bunch of apps that say "Installed" on the Google Play website (In My Apps > All) for me when they're not.
I tried clearing cache and davik from recovery, and also clearing the cache from app settings.
I've tried removing my Google Account and readding it.

Funny behaivour after Nandroid Restore on another phone

My dad and I both have DHDs, he had a problem with his phone so I did a Nandroid backup and restored it on his phone by transferring the files over. This worked well, and I removed my accounts from his phone and restored his SMS, Contacts etc.
Weird thing is, when he installs something - it also installs it on my device even though we are logged on separate Google Accounts. I can no longer install apps from the Play store website because I receive the error, "There are no Android phones associated with this account". I have tried to remove the account and then add it again to my phone but that didn't work. I cleared the Google Play App's data and cache and restarted - that didn't work.
Any other suggestions?
Okay, so I was able to resolve this by:
Removing my Google Account
Clear Google Play app data
Restart phone
Open Google Play and Sign in
Install a GAPP (Youtube, Gmail, Maps etc.) app (or update) - this will force the Play store to recognise the phone through the PC.
I am now able to remotely install apps via my PC.
Really strange indeed

Maybe a file linking the two together?

Check if you have something like Titanium Backup or any other app that might be messing with the accounts. Try doing a wipe cache and dalvik. If the issue persist, then try reflashing a rom (after a full wipe)
You saved me!

I scavenged the web everywhere for a solution to this, and this is the only piece of information that actually solved my problem. Thank you for sharing!
This happens to me sometimes as I flash all kinds of roms, and restore old backups. It seems to have something to do with the device ID not being updated properly after a restore, or something. Anyhow, this does the trick without having to wipe the phone.

How to prevent automatic Google Play Store apps Download with new Rom

Hi,
how can i prevent, that Google Play Downloads all my 200 Apps in my clean new Rom installation...
i have all the time speed issues,
and now i wanna tray, only install needed apps...
but every time i install clean rom,
add my google account, and go into Playstore, the Download starts...
You should have put this under Q&A
after setup google account, I turn off wifi, data to prevent auto download applications form play store and using titanium backup to restore my applications
but this is no Solution...
i also use Titanium Backup,
if i restore 15 apps...
and than i visit the first time Google Play Store,
the other 185 apps starts to downoad...
is there a setting, in Titanium Backup, to prevent Playstore to start the downloads...
Maybe change any ID, that google Play store means, i have an new Mobile
Just deselect the "Restore" option in the "Backup and Restore" page of the Welcome Wizard.
I think that deselecting the Restore won't get you anywhere...
What I've found is that the phone automatically downloads different apps for the sense ROMs and different for non-sense. Since sense has different storage locations than other ROMs I'm sure that data telling the playstore what to download is on the phone and I it should be on the SD card since it's still there after a full wipe. Now all we have to do is find the directory where that data is stored and delete it before we flash a new ROM.
A ROM dev would surely know where this directory is, but I'll try to find it...
If someone knows, do tell us
Play Store downloads the same apps for any ROM, sense or not. There's no difference. And the downloaded apps are stored in the same directory in all Android ROMs which is /data/app. Just not selecting the 'restore from this Google account' option during initial should be enough. Even if Play Store setup starts downloading apps, force stop it and then put back all your apps using Titanium Backup or something like that.

Also there is a option in Titanium backup to detach user & system apps from the Market. I think that after you force stop the market you should do this and solve your problem
Usually when that happens to me, I go to the My Apps page in the market and just press the Stop All button.
