Auto installing apps from the market. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Anyone know how to shut this off? I have about 40 apps that are repeatedly trying to reinstall themselves daily. I obviously don't want them to andnindont prompt them to. So annoying. Can I shut this off somehow?

Try going into Settings > Backup & Reset and untick automatic restore.

I have the same issue but unchecking that setting didn't work. Still installing the apps over and over again.

Are you using another app store, like app brain or the Amazon app store?

Nope. Only the android market. I tried clearing the cache and turning off the auto update. The only thing I haven't tried (yet) is a factory reset. I haven't figured out what is triggering it yet either.

Have u tried clearing data from Market and Google Framework Services?

or settings inside app market?...

If you are talking about apps automatically updating, then go to the Market/Menu/Settings and uncheck Auto-Update. And while there, if you don't want to be notified when an app has an update, uncheck the notification check box too.
But be aware that apps are usually only updated to correct issues or to add/improve features.
Good luck.

No, but if I do what other data will be deleted? Google accounts?

You won't lose anything, just delete the data and reboot (you're deleting locally, not from the servers). Account will reset it's self. You may still get the auto download, but once you uninstall they should stay uninstalled...
Hit the settings button in the pull down. Select Apps, use the All tab and the clear data button will be under the apps I mentioned...

Weird glitch, need help!

Today, I went to the Market to update some of my apps and ROM Manager automatically started updating. Then, the Market forced closed and whenever I try to open it, it force closes again. In my notification bar it says I am downloading three things, and they are all called ROM Manager. I tried a reboot, but no fix. Then I tried killing all apps, which didn't work. Then I tried to turn data off in settings, and it did nothing. xScope automatically now force closes too.
I have CM7 nightly build #26. Any ideas?
Have you tried clearing the market cache?

Thank you, that fixed my immediate problems!
However, now when I click "My Apps" in the Market, it only shows my purchased apps, and not my free installed apps. Why is this?

Well, for starters, you just wacked your local market cache.
I believe it refreshes with time (has for me in the past). Give it a day/reboot or two and check again.
I think pronghornrunner is right. They should show eventually but it will take some time.
Aren't thanks guys. No worries then!

Google Chrome

Is anyone else running Chrome Beta? For some reason when I go to settings the app crashes.

Yeah, that was happening to me too. Clear the Data from Settings->App-Google Chrome Beta
On your PC go to your Google Dashboard and
In the Chrome Sync section, Stop Sync and Delete Data from Google
Following the instructions at
http://support.google.com/chrome/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1181035&topic=1693469&ctx=topic
to disable encryption and then re-enable encryption using either your Google password or a new paraphrase.
I'm pretty sure that those were the steps I took to get rid of the FC but I can't remember totally as I was really sleepy. Either way, I'm not getting that issue any more.
I tried this a few times without success. I was able to access settings immediately after signing in with the link at the bottom of the screen, but couldn't get to the settings through the menu

I never got it to work. I even tried deleting my app data and going to settings without logging in and it locks up.

Google search/now force closing?

So I have a google search widget on my home screen and when i try to look up something in the google search app and press enter on my keyboard it just force closes.
I also noticed that in the stock browser that the logo next to the address bad no longer shows the google icon.
Not sure what I did? I remember uninstalling "Clean Master" and "System Tuner" before it happened, but before I uninstalled it I restored the defaults on the system tuner app.
ALSO, I had google searched greenify'd so I converted it back into a system app.
please help!

Clear cache and data of Google search using the app manager in settings.
If that doesn't work, uninstall Google search entirely and reflash gapps.
Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.

So the problem with google photos app persists, it enables itself every morning, even with this method.
I'm having this issue as well. So i use the ADB to debloat / uninstall it and it never appear again. You should try it.

Question Gmail notifications still don't work

From the early june i still have no notifies for mail in gmail accounts. I try all the possible solutions, also a new Clean flash of the original rom, but the behavior is the same: i receive the notifies only manual opening the gmail app.
Try switchcing with custom rom (crdroid) and notifies works, but i need the original oos, so it's not a solution.
I think that is a play service related problem due to on the end of july after a update of play service the notifies come back to work... But... Another update stop them working.
Have you got a working solution?
I start a new work that use gwork suite, so i still not receive also the work mails .
Thanks
The same issue. (Battery optimization turned off)
Try this, worked for me.
Reset the App permissions, it may be that an app or apps or something connected is causing the issue.
Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > see all apps > select three dots > Reset app preferences.
Then reboot.
This will not delete your apps data but you will have to provide permissions for all your Apps again.
Then ensure Gmail has Notifications enabled in its App info>Notifications.
Download this latest version of Gmail from apkmirror

For me it stop working sometimes and when it does i reboot the phone, then go to settings, accounts , Gmail and resync it, then it works again

I've downloaded Oneplus Launcher 5.2.26 together with the Gmail app. Maybe the launcher is the reason for it being fixed.
BTW Launcher 5.2.26 fixed a lot of bugs on the launcher and now the 120Hz is better but not perfect. Scrolling too.
And dont forget to check "Dont Optimize" under Battery
I have installed latest Gmail and Launcher but not help.

I have the same problem with notifications. Until this is fixed, I'm using FairEmail to pull my gmail and the notifications work.
This really is not a issue limited to Oneplus. All my Android devices have poor Gmail notifications. I was under the impression that it was optimized using Doze: https://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/doze-standby
If you use something like Outlook Email, notifications are not restricted in the background. I would rather use Gmail, but it does not send notifications reliably. So, Outlook it is.
15th of november... Still have notifications problems.
