How does automatic update of market apps work? - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How does automatic update of market apps work?
I have a few apps that have the automatic update option checked, but I still have to start the update process manually to update them to the latest version...

Yes, that's how it works. It's more of a notification thing, taking in to account permissions can change and all that.
A fully automatic update would be great, but I don't think that's normal practice on any platform (or is it?)

Thank you! I didn't consider possible permission changes of applications, that makes sense.
Where should notifications appear? I'm not getting any, having the market either running in background or completely off...

It seems like a joke... The next day after I posted this question I got the notification and the automatic update of applications started on its own... Strange...

Yes, you're not alone on this issue. See the following thread:

I'd roll back to the most recent 'working' version you had. For me, that is back around v 1.4...
How do u revert back to the old version?

If you go to market and go to your 'downloads' section there should be an option to 'uninstall updates'.
I just checked it it only say uninstall, and I checked google maps its the only app that I can uninstall updates. Weird =0

I use appmonster and you can back up just the app without data. It autoback's each app you install without over writing the previous version. That way if an update gets jacked like this one you can uninstall it, go to your appmonster folder, and reinstall gthe previous version. But the uninstall updates works if you don't want to purchase an app. Imo appmonster is the shiz because you have the apps .apk file. Saves time on installing apps after a full wipe if the sync feature doesn't work as it should(which in my opionion hardly ever works)

How can I install the newest version of the andriod market on my phone?
Regarding market it will automatically update to the newest version. We don't need to update it. The present market version is 2.3.6
Check it under settings/applications/manage applications/all/market.

For me, latest market design is buggy, icons are cut off, no carousel and stuff like that
To prevent questions, no, i dont use custom lcd density.
Any way to fix it? thanks.

Apps restoring automatically after a new ROM installation

When I install a new ROM on my phone and after I go through the whole setup process my phone then automatically downloads some of my previously installed apps, does anybody know why this happens and how I go about stopping it from happening?
Are they set to auto update?
Swyped from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
Not that am aware off, it seems to happen after I sign into my google account, like google has saved my apps and starts automatically downloading them onto my phone.
I'd check their auto update status.. Otherwise i'm not sure.

It happens because when you first set up your phone last time, you left the Google backup option ticked

It seems like nothing auto updates when you unlock the screen. Not even friend stream is updating.

Check your settings
Check the settings for the weather. On my phone there is a check box for update when opened & automatically. Also there is the update schedule.

Here's something really odd that I did. I had the same problem after flashing updates on my phone. I finally just ran the setup wizard and just went through the motions for the wizard. After that it somehow got the correct location. Try that

Excuse my ignorance, how do you run the set up wizard? Do I have to to it to this sense ROM as well as the cm7?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
go to your app drawer and use the app called Setup.
it'll run you through the first time wizard.
It did the trick for me. but it's just my experience.

Do you use any adblock app?
Which notifications could you receive from games?
I don't have any push notification from the game and I do not install the adblock.

OK but why do you want to receive notifications from games???
It is important to have the push notification from the game as I am not always stay with the game and I want to stick with what is happening inside the game.

Well you never used AirPush Detector app for example or another one? Do you use malwares protection as LBE Security manager, Pdroid...?
Maybe you could check the settins app or clear data of the game.
I haven't tried the apps you said. But I did clear the data and re-start the game again, with no luck, still not work.
Now, I found out that it was the server problem. I can play the same game from other producer and it works fine.

You maybe un-checked the notification the time you install the game.
Try to browse the game again from the store and check the notification checkbox.
And also go to app setting of your phone and open the settings of the game and check the notification checkbox.
Btw, this notifications can drain more power to your battery. If you have many application which you rarely use I suggest to uncheck its notification. I got this battery problem before with my GN2.
