Android Market
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.
At least for me. I loved being able to snap a pic with my big camera, have the EyeFi upload it and sync it to Picasa, and have the picture in my JB stock gallery on the Nexus 4 automatically. The Sony Gallery will pull the Picasa images, but I have to manually tell it to refresh and it takes a LONG time.
Once the image is downloaded I can't share it from there, I have to download it and then go look for it and share it. It also downloads a small version of the image.
I was able to install the stock JB Gallery app but I was missing the components to sync Picasa. Still need to work on fixing that. Anyone use something that would make things better?
I don't know if this will help because it probably is quite obvious to you already, but have you tried using quickpic?

Quickpic sucks on XZ/ZL, pictures not fullscreen and also with black bars

Auto sync meaning sync Google Photos under settings? That's enabled and I still have to manually refresh.

Oh that's not the way it's supposed to look? Haha. I had never used Quick Pic. It looks pretty good, but it doesn't have Picasa integration, so it doesn't add much value here.
I did find that I can pull the Picasa pictures more easily with Google +, but I still have to download them and then share them. It only shares to Google +. At least the resolution of the downloaded images is much better than what the Sony app gets and the pics are already synced when I open the app.
It looks like the Sony gallery does not use the Android sync service and pulls its own version of the images.

Exactly my point, it is really annoying that it is showing all the images at once, including whatsapp images it is 1 big mess of images...
Someone over at Android Central pushed out the stock Nexus Gallery/Camera app from the new Samsung/HTC Nexus-ified devices. I just installed it and it works perfectly on my C6506, and Google+ Photos/Picasa is working like a charm. Gotta say I love the stock Nexus Gallery.
Give it a go.

That is AWESOME! Downloading now. Thanks for posting the link!
Edit: Installed and it works great. Now to change the default app for the camera button and disable the shutter sound (I'm also not a big fan of the Sony camera app)
Great! The only downside is that we won't be able to make use of the Bravia Engine, but oh well.

Eh, I have it turned off. Then I unlocked my bootloader and even though I backed up my TA partition, I haven't bothered to replace it.

This app also shows my whatsapp images folder even though it has .nomedia.
Also I can't choose which folders to show... why is it so hard to add these simpel features

They want all of your Photos not only the ones you choose, I mean in case you want to use the sync option, which is (would be) a nice feature.
Would be very easy, I think, to add options like "Folders to sync"...."Folders to show"....and something like that, that makes the User the Owner of the Stuff
But these are Questions like, why we don't get an option to fully Access our Phones "Root" by Clickin......is all about the Money they make by Advertising "non Know Users" and so on....FTI.
We are all buying industrial Money making Machines for a lot of Bucks....because we love Tech!
Great, just installed and totally in love with my new gallery
Thank you!

Hello, I am wondering if I can uninstall any apps without making my phone crash. I think there are a lot of 'one plus own apps' to track logs and other stuff which is just not needed for me. Anyone could tell me if any of you have "debloated" your Oxygen Os? Anyone could list apps which are safe to uninstall and what these apps are for? I've been trying to find about this on the internet but had no luck, maybe you guys know? Thanks!

You can remove pretty much every oneplus app. I've removed stock dialer, message app along with every other oneplus app and replaced them with google apps. Its more up to you which ones you want to remove.
Well, yes, I understand these stock apps which have shortcuts in launcher. But I see a lot more stuff when I go in titanium backup, there are a lot of stuff like 'oemlogkitservice', 'BTtestmode', 'ANT half service' , 'keychain', 'NVBackupUI', 'ONePlusLogKit' and many more stuff. I am just not sure if I will be safe to uninstall those.
there are a decent number of threads detailing this topic.

Hello, is anyone who is using a work profile, or Secure Folder to install separate copies of apps, able to see those apps in their Recent Apps?
When I view my Recent Apps, those apps dont appear. Does this happen to anyone else?

Just checked and the opened apps are visible in recent apps.
Though the Secure Folder app itself is not visible in Recent Apps.
If your phone is rooted or you have tripped your knox on Samsung phones, work profile apps will stop showing in Recents.

i don't have a note 10 but i have a similar issue... i have secure folder and also have a work profile (the last installed with Island)... my device is a s10 and its rooted. I have the same trouble since i rooted it but the strange thing is that recents shows apps in securefolder but not the apps in workspace
Also neither securefolder nor workspace allows screenshots
why can i have the SF apps showing in recents but no the ones in workprofile?
I'm migrating from the OnePlus 6T to the s20+ and have some apps that need to be secured. Hidden space on the OnePlus is straight forward and pass-code secured. On the s20+ I've created the secure folder and hidden it for maximum security, and created the duplicate apps needed, though the apps that are in the folder are still accessible from the app drawer and open, from the drawer, with a tap, this seems to be less than optimal and not even remotely secure
Is it just me?
I admit I'm old and technologically declined, but dang
I have been looking for what is bound to be a simple answer to this, though no one else seems to be having this issue.
Samsung s20+ SM-g986u
Stock, no root.

You can delete the apps from the drawer. The ones in the secture folder will still be accessible.

Just uninstall them from the main settings. From what I see, the apps are installed independently in secure folder. Ofcourse, all installed apps, you can see in secure folder and add them, but their data is separate.

You can install it from the secure folder and it will be visible only there. Just go add app and play store and install it from within sec folder.

Ahhhh. Thank you! This works.
apps in secure folder are not visible in the drawer, but you can find them in RAM and battery usage... so there aren't completely hidden.
