(Help)Anyway to stop Go Play Market from updating? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Ok so still having major issues with the new Go Play Market. My apps are not showing up and can't update any of my apps! So trying to keep a old market installed. That fixes the issue but it always updates to the newest market which is broken. And Freezing the Market Updater with TB. Is not working.still updates. Seems it has no affect on the market now. Wtf?? Anyone got any ideas? It been like this for like a week! please help me out! Thanks a million!

Try the Market Update helper in Titanium Backup.

I'm not having any issues running DW 2.1.5. All my apps downloaded fine and market prompts me for updates.
What rom are you using and have you considered full wiping then reflash? Maybe that will stop that..

New market sucks!!!

I have tried renaming the marketupdate.apk in system/app but it still updates itself. I have tried freezing said apk with titanium backup and yet it still updates itself. I have a version of the market that I like but installing it everyday is getting old. How can I successfully keep it from updating on its own?? I'm on CM7.1 btw. Thanks.
Did you freeze the market or market updater?

I froze the Market Updater using Titanium Backup.
A quick search found me this

Hope this helps...
Froze that marketupdater and the damn thing still updates. I then deleted marketupdater and it still updated to the new crap market! What the hell?

I hate it. I can search for an app and then try to install it and it just sits there forever. But as soon as I install the older version and search for the same app and install it, the app downloads and installs right away. Sigh.

Did you try clearing data and cache from the market app?

Yep, multiple times. I have installed the old version a few times now. I must have jacked with the wrong file or something cuz now the new version FCs when I try to download somthing and the old version closes as soon as I click the Market icon. LOL. I need to reinstall my ROM anyway. Fresh start.
It definitely decreased the visibility for my app. In that way I don't like it, but as a user, I got used to it.

Youtube

I'm not sure if its the phone the app or something else but my subscriptions are all gone and most of the videos I try to play crash the app. I have tried reflashing cm7 many times but it still occurs. No other app has any issue. Google search failed me so I was hoping someone might have an answer.
Thank you for your time.

Did you go into settings-applications-manage applications-youtube and then clear data? I would try that before anything else. Also, are you undervolting at all? If I go to low with setCPU, youtube is usually the first thing to crash.
Its the app EVERYBODY has this issue and its pissing me off
If you read the apps reviews there plumeting because they haven't fixed it yet

The comments are great, lol. But in an effort to stay on topic, have you tried uninstalling then restoring an older version through Titanium?
This has worked for me NM the past.
Also, though it sounds noobish,have you cleared Dalvik and formatted /cache under mounts &storage? Always ask the simplest questions first. Damn A+ steps. ;-)

Are both of your subs not showing up when you go to "My channel"? Mine wont show up on the youtube widget, but do show up when I go to my channel. I clicked on a few of the recommended videos and about half caused FCs!
I don't use titanium. Clean installs only. I don't nandroid ever either. I know all the tricks for simple stuff since I've been on xda since my Samsung moment. I had figured it was YouTube being YouTube and having issues with everything. But I wasn't sure until I tested stuff.

Its happenning to me aswell. I found a fix that works. Go into cwm and wipe data cache n dalvik. It will wipe everything and you'll have to manually install your apps but it DOES work. Don't restore nandroid. It will bring back the bug.

I saw this fix somewwhere and it worked on my gf's epic running legendary 2.2 and samurai assassin (problem originated for her on acs ics 5.1). I did a factory data reset from the settings menu in android. After the phone reboots enter your account settings and restore apps with data using titanium backup. Its a bit tedious but it worked.

Play store not displaying many apps

So I have some weirdness happening. For example if I search titanium backup the program itself doesn't show up......only the key which in have purchased. I can't for the life of me find terminal emulator. If I open up a browser window, go to play.Google.com and search, there they are. If I download from web browser and send to phone play will fc when opened. These are 2 examples there are many others.
I have cleared data/cache for play, uninstalled updates for it. Cleared cache and dalvick and all the usual 1st steps. I haven't changed pixel density and I'm running swipers miui 2.3.2b1
I am having the exact same problem right now! I can never seem to find TB anymore, only the "key" (unless I search through google, as you mentioned). Same thing goes for "Scramble with Friends", and a couple of other apps. There's no rhyme or reason to it that I can find.
Any ideas anyone??

For the sake of trying to troubleshoot, what from are u running. I was thinking maybe it was a miui thing and was about to nand back to a sense rom to check.
I am having the same problem. I'm running the latest Mazwoz Beta 5 Ics rom. Idk what could be causing the problem.

From what I've been able to gather, these issues are specific to the new 3.5.15 version of Google Play Store. None of my paid apps show up.

I'm currently running MozWaz Beta 5.0. But I believe I had the same problem on Drew's Alpha 1 and Decks PB9.
So I reflashed the exact same rom I was running b4, let play store update automatically and now everything is fine. All apps are back. Not sure what got borked but it was worth it.
I have same issue. I'm on swiper's ics, a lot of my apps say "your device is not compatible...." or the apps are installed and running but not under my apps in the market.

Only solution I could find was reflashing. U could also try uninstalling play store with titanium and installing it again by grabbing an apk for it

[Q] Apps stuck downloading?

Im on CM9 Kang, also on the kernal that came with it. My apps auto update, and so I see gmail and quickpic updating. But it was kinda odd because it was still downloading the updates 3 hours later(wifi not being the problem). I even tried downloading angry birds, and it was stuck on "starting download". I have like 6 apps that are waiting in queue for updating, but its just sits there. Amazon market works perfect, so its something wrong with the play store im assuming. Anyone know a fix for this?
Its in most of the posts regarding cm9 and aokp, open terminal emulator, type su hit enter then type killall drmserver

Dude did you even search. Its even in the OP of the rom you are running for gods sake! And you started a new thread for it.

Hey, this is just a general play question though.. anyone know why when you hit all apps auto update . There is still one or two that need to be manually updated? (THIS MEANS YOU FLASH AND ACROBAT READER!!!) That's with gb and ics.. no big deal really, but it is just something I always wondered.

So have to be done manually due to permissions changes. Are you meaning those?

Like I flash a new rom. When I open market I select auto update all apps. Nearly every app updates itself, but there is always one or two that say they news to be done manually . When I go to update it manually though, the box for auto update is selected.. just weird

That means on a regular update it will. Just happens that that particular update changes permissions so must be done manually

[Q] GS3 and Swiftkey 3

So I am running a fresh install of FreeGS3 0.2.0 and I tried installing Swiftkey 3 from the Amazon appstore as I had before when I was stock. Whenever I try to setup the keyboard I just get a black screen and then it force closes. I am not sure what is happening I deleted every trace of it off my SD card and re-installed and such but it still won't work, I even re-installed the rom.
If anyone has any information I would be grateful.
Did you wipe data when you installed the rom? SwiftKey 3 works for me. Though I tend to use Swype more.
Sent from Pluto.
I did a factory reset, system wipe, fix permissions and cleared both caches.

I'm using SwiftKey 3 from the Amazon Appstore to type this using my SGSIII. It's the first app I install (after the Appstore) with every new ROM I flash. Haven't had any issues with it at all. And it certainly isn't broken.

Maybe it wasn't when you installed it....
I also have this problem with Swiftkey 3 from the Amazon App store...so yeah the one from the Amazon App store is broken. I had to resort to running the old Swiftkey. I hope they fix it soon. If not I'll havee to buy it from the Google store and you can bet Ill never use the Amazon app again.

The last time I installed it was 3 days ago. I always install everything fresh when flashing instead of from backups. It's the most recent version that is available on Amazon.

I don't know how many days its been but its certainly been at least two for me. You mind uninstalling it and reinstalling it? Its been broken for me for days and Ive flashed CM10, Liquid Smooth, Clean ROM and even stock. Then back again to CM10.

Hmmm. I uninstalled and re-downloaded and it didn’t work. Backed it up prior to un installing. Restored backup and it works. Version number is identical to the version number on Amazon.
