I'm running ACS Syndicate Frozen Rom, and there is no backup option in my privacy settings. Is this an Epic, Syndicate, or EB13 issue? My paid apps are not showing up in my market. I want Beautiful Widgets back. Help please.
This may be a stupid question for you, but are you logged in with your google account that you used to purchase the apps. They should automatically show up in the market and show that you purchased them.

It doesn't matter what the.rom has. Once you sign Into your Google acct then it syncs everything to your phone. All your paid apps will be.listed in the market under my apps and then you just download them.

So I do see that the apps that I backed up are now being recognized by the market and are appearing under "My Apps". However, paid apps that I previously purchased (launcherpro icons for example) that I forgot to back up are not being listed and downloaded. If I find this app in the market, it asks me to pay again for it. Did I lose those apps forever?
O have never seen that before cause everytime I flash some thing all my paid apps appear when I log into my acct. Maybe you could contact the developer of the app and explain your situation. Sorry bro I don't have another answer for you. Did u happen to make a nand backup at all? If you did you could restore from that. Good luck man.

Thanks for your help. My app market is themed. If it is not a stock market, could that be the reason my non-backed up paid apps don't appear in MyApps?
Like one of the previous posts said, you can try contacting the developer and see what they say. As far as purchased apps not showing, I've never seen that happen. Usually when I log in with my google account the only apps that show in my market are the paid ones. don't think it has anything to do with you having backed them up or not.

It's actually a pretty good question.I've run quite a few different roms in the last month or so and even though I back everything up,the Market seems to lose apps that I've purchased from time to time.Would be nice to know if there's a way to retrieve them online or if we just need to keep buying them over and over.

Yes seriously. You answer was anything but. I want to where they are stored. Hitting the downloads tab shows a list of them, it doesn't show WHERE.
Download Astro File Browser and use the built-in search feature. Make sure it is scanning the whole system and not just your SD card.
This should tell you where they are downloaded and stored.
This question is highly ambiguous. You may want to refine.
I think he means, if you wipe and install a new ROM, the first time you go into the market, it will remember the apps you DID have installed.
Where is that stored?

Exactly. This is what is elusive. Maybe I'm completely wrong and they are stored on SkyNet I mean Google.
I am pretty sure they are attached to your google account. So they are stored on skynet, in some dark dungeon of servers they have 1000 feet under ground
Actually, I think this is a two part deal. The apps you have purchased are associated with your google account. Free apps and trials have a local market link associated with them. This link can become corrupted and titanium backup has the capability to restore those links. Running a logcat while executing the restore market links process may point you in the right direction.
.....
Frank...
They are definitely associated with your google account. My market kept telling me I had a **** load if apps on my phone...no mater how many times I wiped, they still showed as installed on my phone. I created a new google account and bam..fixed the issue when I signed in with the new account. Its the weirdest thing.

indeed. this seems not only a evo specific "issue". a friend has a hero and was complaining how to uninstall apps since there is a sprint tab in her market. i told her to press menu and then to downloads since she isnt a geek.
i first noticed this tonight.. weird.

This is already being discussed in the GENERAL section.
Over the last few days all the apps I uninstall are not removing themselves from my market downloads page. So now I have a bunch of crap apps cluttering up my list. Is there anyway to clean up the market downloads list and remove all these free apps I don't care about since I uninstalled them? They're making it so all my updates are getting dispersed through the list, which is quite annoying. I'm running the latest CM6 Nightly.

go into SETTINGS>APPLICATIONS and clear the cache and data for the Market app. Open it up, it will re-gather the list, and you should be good to go!
Nope, tried that already and somehow they are still coming back
These are free apps by the way, I know that you can't get the paid apps to leave your downloads list.
Market in general is a joke compared to Apple App Store. I have been having the same issue.
I find it really stupid that if I click on a banner for an advertised game or app it doesn't take me there. They need to get rid if soundboards, themes and junk.

Titanium Backup has an option that removes apps from My Downloads when you uninstall them from Titanium.

I tried reinstalling all the apps in the list, removing them all with Titanium with "Remove Market Entry" set, clearing cache and data for Market, and then rebooting... and they're all still in the bloody list. I also made a nandroid backup and wiped /data and when I logged into Market they all tried to install automatically with the apps I actually care about. Why can't I get these apps to go away?... D:

Then complain to whoever created whatever banner you clicked on. The Market is fully clickable.

Uh, you hold the Apple App Store in such high regard, and it's full of soundboards and plenty of other "junk".
It may be a PIA, but I would try wiping everything, flashing CM and gapps and skipping the setup process. Once the system loads, go into settings and make sure backup data/apps (I can't remember exactly what its called or which settings folder its in) and then open the market and sign in.

I wish there was a way to filter crap app developers out of the market. I never want to see an app by a few developers that seem to just make stupid apps over and over (that ringclip guy, for instance) I remember there was an alternate market app a while back that let you do this, but I can't find it anymore.

Didnt mean to hurt your feelings. If you've ever had an apple product that accessed the app store you would know what I'm talking about.
1. When you uninstall an app it shouldn't remain in your downloads folder. This is very annoying and you find yourself clicking on the app you just deleted by mistake.
2. Android has a lot good apps but most of them are buried under junk apps.
3. The banners that I'm referring to is when you view all apps. It'll show me a banner of a cool looking game and if clicked on it should take me straight to the game but it doesn't.

This must be a problem with CM. I am running Fresh 3.3.0.1 and I just happened to have unistalled a bunch of apps today (all either uninstalled through the market or through settings/applications). After I uninstalled them I rebooted and they are now gone from my Market downloads page.
I have the same issue on stock 3.29 w/ root. Odex.

Get Titanium Backup, and you can uninstall them with that.

Or if you don't care to have them back, just go through settings/application/manage and find the ones you want to delete. I and Some other people don't care to have those apps so why back them up? Sometimes its just a waste of time!
backup etc
Most i just want gone! Like nascrap, sprint tv etc.
The Titanium Backup is probably a good idea in case you delete one program and it has an effect on one you want to keep. Heard of that happening.
**Problem is u go into manage apps and Uninstall is not an highlighted option on the ones they want to shove down your throat.
Some you want to keep are freindstream, g-talk and gmail...
But yeah, the NASCAR, NFL, Amazon, Peep, et al.... gone
You can actually get rid of Friendstream too if you don't use, and also get rid of any of the social networking apps. I get rid of friendstream, , facebook, news, callender, footprints, rss reader, music, browser, app sharing, sprint hotspot, and several others, because I don't use them, or their are better replacements on the market.
Titanium Backup is probably the best, but you could also use Root Uninstaller. This gives you a lot of options, such as freezing an app and restoring apps.
I use Root Explorer, I have never used Titanium Backup but you should be able to use it.

Hey guys,
So I have flashed many roms between my two phones and have never had this issue before. I recently flashed Virtuous Unity on my Inc2 and recovered all of my apps with Titanium Backup. Now usually after installing an app or 2 all of my restored apps appear under 'My apps" in the market, but not this time. Only about 10 of them are there. If I search for an app I have installed it says 'Installed, but still wont show up under my apps.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

Clear the cache on the market and restart the phone. I have this problem all the time and eventually all my apps will show up in the market.
Are these paid apps? I usually only see my paid apps in your situation, rarely all of them. Have you looked at the Market website? It does a pretty good job of listing every app you've ever installed.

Some of us are getting their Optimus G today and will probably want to root and even though Sprint doesn't have too many bloatware, I know there will be people that are gonna try to remove some apps they don't want. However...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970546
Apparently some of LG's stock apps are locked down with the security on this phone and will cause an error if you uninstall the wrong app. Don't not uninstall any app yet, The best thing to do is to freeze them.
Edit: This only happens if you uninstall a google app. Sprint and LG Bloatware is fine apparently.
A chill down my spine.
I just ran root through my phone, seconds away from loading up root uninstaller and gleefully ridding myself of all the Sprint bloatware that annoys the daylights out of me, I decided to bookmark this section of forum, saw this post and probably saved myself from a ruined Saturday.
Even though the other OP removed Google apps and I just want to remove Sprint stuff.. now I just don't dare.
Curses. I think I'm just gonna go back to bed instead.
Thank you for the heads up, never would have guessed myself.
No problem, glad I could help.
People in the other thread said you can delete LG apps and AT&T apps (Sprint apps likely too) but not google apps

I froze apps, rebooted, and had this problem.
I thought that was the issue, until I remembered that I pushed the newer versions of the updated Google apps to /system with Titanium. I guess *ANY* change to those specific apps faults whatever checking it's doing. :-|
i was able to remove, most of LG apps..
the two Sprint app i kept..
The list of apps I've safely deleted from stock zvc are as follows:
Application Manager
Marionette
Google Play Books
Google Play Magazines
Google Play Movies and Tv
Google Play Music
Lg Email
Lg Email Widget
Memo
Memo Widget
Stock Music Player(I use PlayerPro)
Notebook
Polaris Office 4
Smartshare
Stock Streaming Player(I use BS Player)
Sprint ID
Sprint Zone
Tom's Diner
VidClip
VideoWiz
And I am sure there are many more that can be deleted(probably some I forgot). I've heard of other people having problems even freezing the google books, etc, but I completely deleted them.
