If you mean apps you have purchased on the market is a feature that downloads the purchased apps automatically once you enter your gmail account. If that is bothering you uninstall them manually once you have the ROM installed

ok:
1. boot to recovery
2. wipe all (factory, sd-ext, dalvik)
3. flash new rom
4. start new rom
5. use wizard to config phone (local setting and google account)
6. run android market and this is critical point
7. after run android market start download all my installed apps from old rom (rom when i use before flashing new rom).
And my question is: How i disable it (download old apps in market).
I need have clear phone without any apps.

If you need a phone without applications what you should do after doing all you just posted is either login in with another google account that has not downloaded anything or uninstall manually the apps after login in

When you are entering your setup information you are selecting Google backup. If you do not select it, it won't download your apps. Which ROM are you using? Is it one of the hd ones?

How can we delete that backup now?
Sent using XDA app from my Desire

when i not select backup to google, is still same as i select this (backup to google). After start android market apps will downloading.
I test:
In old rom manual uninstall all apps from android market.
In recovery full wipe
Flash new rom
In wizard unselect backup to google
But when i start android market apps will downolading :-(
Where i search this backup on google ?

Definite bump on this required!
I too want to delete the existing backup that Google holds because it contains apps that I deleted ages ago because I don't want them (it even downloaded the CM background I used when I used an AOSP ROM a while ago). This happened after I flashed a hd ROM last night.
And I can confirm that regardless of selecting backup or not, the auto downloads occur.
Is the backup overwritten if you don't select it initially but then select it after you have configured your phone to how you want it? If so, how do you reset the backup option, can;t find it, do I have to re-run the setup wizard?
I'm currently back on a standard Sense ROM and don't plan on going to a HD one for a while but would like to delete whatever backup Google hold.
Thanks

Seems like this only happens on Sense-based ROMs. I had a Sense ROM installed and flashed a CM6.1 Mod, and no apps were downloaded when I opened the market.
Maybe you can avoid this with the AppBrain App Market, which also synchronises your apps with Google to bring apps in your market list that have been installed outside the market via browser or sd-card.

Ok, this issue for me is now resolved having just reinstalled a hd rom (Alex-v 1.3 hd v2), basically I let the apps auto update then, once notified of completion, went into 'Settings-Privacy'-which is where I saw that backup wasn't ticked (as I had not selected it in the setup wizard) but that auto resore WAS but it was greyed out. I selected backup which then ungreyed the auto restore option and was able to untick both selections, once you do this you are given a messsage asking if you are sure and if you continue all data will be deleted. All sorted. Just means you have to go through uninstalling the apps you no longer want but it should be a one off from now. Happy days!

Installed gapps but no market appears

Hello!
I already searched the forum and google for similar problem and found some topics but none were useful or helpful for me
so I just changed my rom to cm7.1.0-RC1.5-jordan-signed (2.3.5 CM7) few hours ago, and I also installed gapps (gapps-gb-20110613-signed) through custom recovery - install zip from sd card (just like I installed the ROM CM7) and chose it
but when I boot the defy no market or any google app is there
I aslo tried to install gapps-gb-20110828-newtalk-signed and got the same thing.. (=nothing)
any ideas?
thank you all =]

Did you try gapps-gb-20110828-signed ?

Yes I did try that.. same thing (didnt work)

umm.....are you looking into the right place?
with the froyo you go to the app page by hitting the home button at the bottom of the phone. with cm7 rc1.5 you select the apps drawer icon on the home desktop, the icon with 4 squares, in between the phone icon and the globe/earth icon.
if this is the case don't feel bad as i couldn't find it the first time too

Nope.. not there.. I dont know what else to do
Ill tell you guys what I did
I did a WIPE and then went to custom recovery - install zip from sd card and chose CM7
and right after it I chose install zip from sd card again and this time chose GAPPS (without another wipe) maybe thats my mistake? do i need to go to custom recovery and wipe again?

nope, you did everything correctly. that's exactly how i did my anyway. infact, since cm7 rc1.5, gapps is already included in the rom. so you don't even need to install gapps anymore, unless you want to use the latest gapps (august version)?
btw which gapps version are you using? could that be the problem? the recommended version is 20110613. the latest is 20110828.
what if you do a full wipe and just install cm7 rc1.5 zip without installing gapps? try that.
note: i'm not an expert. what i said above may not be accurate

Have you added your Google account? If not, Goto Settings -> Accounts and add it. Hopefully after that the GApps should appear.
That happened to me a few times - I think this was the solution.

[Q] Google Play store missing

Hi everyone, I've just flashed Codename 3.6.6 and kernel MS5 and everything seems fine However, when i switched on the phone my Google play store app is missing.So is there anyway I could re download it? Many thanks

did you flash the gapps for the rom? i bet you didnt.

what do you mean the gapps of the rom? Sorry im just a newbie dont really understand it

Download this: http://androtransfer.com/get.php?p=Gapps/gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip
And flash it the same way you flashed your ROM. Wipe cache and dalvik-cache first though.

go into the thread where you found the download for your rom, and under the download link it says something like "Google Apps" or "Gapps download"
download it, flash it in cwm.
please read rom flashing instructions if you are a newbie at this.

Read the first post. Download 'Google Apps' and flash via recovery.

I have a problem

Hello,
I am just starting with all romes and stuff.
I hope i am posting in the right place.
I got my ATT Samsung galaxy s3 a few days ago:
1. I have downloaded CWM6.0.1.2 on it with oding pulled the battery and went to recovery.
2. then installed CM10 stable (cm-10.0.0-d2att).
3.then installed gapps-ics-20120317-signed.
4. today i found this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965290&highlight=gapp and installed the Gapps from here according to the post (http://d-h.st/sPL , which is New ZIP by garner (JB-4.2-Gapps-signed.zip) (11/11/2012).
Now I have a problem:
After those steps. when ever I press the home button I receive a message "complete action using" options are LAUNCHER or TREBUCHET and then "always or just once"
If I choose TREBUCHET I receive my phone and my setting as usual.
If I choose LAUNCHER I receive a new phone as if I installed it again with the JB-4.2-Gapps-signed.zip
a few questions:
1. does anybody know what to do and how to resolve this?
2. which Gapp works with CM10?
3.I repeated from above, steps 2 and 4 hoping install ROM and gapps , and the same happens again (I have wiped everything in CWM). how can I whip or delete or format the phone to default so I can repeat the process again? (I think when I wipe in CWM and install the CM10 again some data remains like photos or I had a problem where i did not have camera on my phone i resolved it by installing the gallery2.apk from CM10 zip - that added me camera icon and gallery icon in the phone which i did not have before and now after every re installation of the ROM they are still there) so how can I start the process from beginning so all will be wiped ?
Thank you hope you can help me....

if u install CM10 alias Android 4.1.* than u don't can install that Gapps pack, it is for CM10.1 alias Android 4.2.1.
if u are safe in Android and what normal should be in ur Android /system partition, u can delete all apps from AROMA Filemanager.
but the safest way is u start from begin. go into cwm and do a factory reset. this erase all data. after that use the latest Gapps from goo.im for Android 4.1.*

Can you point me to gapp that is for CM10?
and also where can i find CM10.1 and his Gapps?

I think i can kinda help you
1.
Trebuchet and launcher are just different launchers for your phone, they provide you with different user interfaces. If trebuchet is the one that has all your settings then you can select that and select 'always' so it will autmatically do that when you press the home button. If you want to change it later you can always go to settings>applications>whatever launcher you are using>clear app defaults
2.
I'm not sure, maybe check back on the original cm10 thread and see what that says regarding GAPPS but I think you can also flash this package. Also, i believe CM10 is a jelly bean based rom so you have to flash the jellybean GAPPS package not the ics one
3.
Go to settings>storage>format sd card to wipe your external sd card
Then go to settings then backup and reset and uncheck 'Automatic Restore' and 'Backup my data' This will prevent your previous apps from re-installing. Then press Factory data reset to clear all data. After that go to CWM and wipe cache, dalvik cache, and factory data reset to completely wipe everything on your phone. After that power off and go into download mode and reflash your stock firmware.
Hope all this helps
Additional advice: try flashing a stock based custom rom, those tend to be less buggy than original roms

Flashed new rom, Now won't connect to Google

So last night i flashed a rom and when it installed i tried to add a google account. I tried to add an existing account. when i added my information it says that i couldn't sign in" there was a problem communicating with google servers." this means that i can't go into the play store. so i went into the TWRP menu to reflash a rom and it doesn't recognize the .img file that is on there. so basically right now i an app-less. any help is welcomed
i still can make calls and text, and my wifi still works. just no connection to google
my device is HTC One M8 AT&T (rooted and boot loader unlocked)
and i have a Mac computer if that helps

Delet your existing Google account from your phone.
Go into Settings > Apps > All and clear cache and data on all Google services:
Play Store, Play Services, Maps, G+ - the works.
Then restart and try again to add your Google account.

That could be it then. Something left behind from another rom install.
As a general rule, if you switch between roms - even from the same base - I would always clean install. Only updates of the same rom are ok to dirty flash.
For a clean install (if you have TWRP) just choose Wipe and swipe the button, then re-flash the rom. You will have to install your apps and tweaks again, but that's a small price to pay for everything working.

I figured it out. Basically because I used my Mac to transfer the ROM to my phone it was unzipped and that made twrp not see it as a ROM its all fixed now
