I just installed Google Play (GP) on my FTV. Everything works fine (except had to reinstall the 4 apks with -r option). Installed the MarketHelper app as well and changed the device to the HTC phone. Verified that the change took effect on the Google dashboard.
Now, if I search for "foldermount", it shows an app called "Link2SD". If I search for "Foldermount", it shows the app along with tons of other apps. If I search for "FOLDERMOUNT", it shows the correct results.
But that does not hold true for all apps, e.g. "vonage".
Any idea why it would do that for certain apps?

So when I go to the market website and click on My Apps it only lists apps up to the 'M's... anything past that I can't see.
I use this page to re-install apps when changing devices / after resets.
Is there any way to see a listing of all of my apps?
Don't know if this helps, but if you install the newest play app (i posted the apk here somewhere), it has the same kinda page now (an all apps installed history), you could install from there?

Thanks, I will check that out! Although I think using a KB/Mouse on my PC would still be more convenient than finger-scrolling and tapping on the phone screen :/
At least that should get me access to everything I'm missing.
My suggestion is,
1. delete market data and cache
2. From settings > sync settings > select google deatails > remove account
3. reboot
4. create your google account again
5. from market, check it again.
Hope this work.
Question - are you using market unlocker?
He's having the problem with the online version of the market, on his computer, not the phone app.

My bad kingdazy.
I've just checked out to find the installed apps from PC.
It seems like there are two ways.
1. from the market home page > My Adnroid Apps (from there we can reinstall the apps) - alphabetical order
(this one shows the history even the apps are uninstalled, those are there)
2. Google account dashboard > Android Market > installed applications (most recent first)
So, if you compare these two lists and if you find anything missing, then you'd better to contact Google support team. If both are the same, maybe there're gonna be none who can help you.
My two cents.
The first list is missing everything after the M's...
The second list has them all though... I'll use that for a work-around for now
I'm having an issue with apps on sd not showing up after a reboot. I have to clear data to get them to show again. This new market is annoying.

I am having the same problem - for me it stops @ the letter H because I have more apps I guess...
I have contacted Google Play support... we'll see...
Hi Guys, Happy New Year . I think i found a weird way google earth can be unfrozen without Titanium Backup. Maybe this was known by most of you, but i didnt know it, so I am sharing it. you can go to http://www.google.com/mobile/android/ on your nexus and click on google earth application icon. It opens a link in google play store application where an option for enabling the application can seen. Once it is enabled the Google application appears in the app drawer. It works until the phone is restarted, Then the application gets frozen again. There are other applications on that web page like google play books, etc but i have had mixed results with them. Earth has been working properly. I think this works only on takju. Check the screen shots or my video on youtube to see what i am talking about.
Small video about this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stoHWpLl1mI
This may be covered in another thread, but i just received this from google support regarding my continued ***** about not being able to delete unused, uninstalled, non working apps listed on the play store granted.. they still show up on the web but now its not on my GSIII any longer.. Thank god... it took google too long to address this issue: :good:
Thank you for contacting Google. At this time, there is no way to delete records of old apps from the Google Play website (play.google.com).
However, if you're running the latest version (3.9+) of the Google Play Store app on your device (to find out the version you're running, launch Google Play, then tap Settings > Build version), you have the ability to remove apps from your My Apps list. At this time, the latest version of the Google Play Store app is slowly being released to devices around the world.
To do so, open the Google Play Store app > My Apps > All, tap the gray circle on the app you want to remove, then tap OK to confirm. You can select multiple apps to remove from the list by long-pressing an app, then tapping more apps in the list.
Note that you will only see the gray circle for apps that are not installed on that device. Removing an app from your My Apps list will uninstall the app from any other devices associated with your account. To get an app back that you've removed from your My Apps list, you must re-download the item from Google Play. If you remove a purchased app, there's no need to re-purchase that app - simply visit the app's details page on Google Play and re-install it.
If you're still running a version of the Google Play Store app below 3.9, you will not be able to remove apps from your My Apps list.
Regards,
Danielle
The Google Play Support Team.
I wish every time you deleted an app the list didn't refresh all the way to the top.. Also after rom installs do they come back and show again?

No they do not. They are also removed from the PC version when you log on from there. It makes it so much easier to try and an app and then delete it for good out of your list.
Nice to be able to finally batch delete...now if only we could batch install...
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium
Well..you can now...the downside? Batch remove isn't available anymore.
The list doesnt refresh anymore thank god. It was so irritating when each time you erase the app from the list you have to scroll again to the point where you stopped before removing the app from the list. And I just got to know that you can actually select multiple apps from that list and install them at once instead of going to each app and pressing intall. COOL!!!
I've rooted my N1 (for how to do it see the Play Store thread) and installed Play Store.
It works fine except lots of apps are not downloadable because the store says that they are not compatible with my device. Some stuff that will not install:
LINE messaging app, Google Maps, Google Chrome, Habit browser.
But lots of others are working like:
Gmail, Firefox, Firefox beta,....
I tried to sideload Google Maps and Habit Browser they work. Well not fully, it cannot find my location. (while some others can). The strange thing is that I don't even see them in the recent location requests window. (the location was broken before I rooted)
Anyone having the same issue?
Because of the location issue I have a feeling that they are related - the APIs are buggy, thus Play Store thinks that my device does not have a way to access location, thus lots of apps are flagged as not compatible with my device.

Chrome was crash same like you.
But I found apk for x86, It's work okay. but I use Firefox now.
Link is what I used one.
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/chrome/chrome-42-0-2311-111-x86-android-apk-download/
Thanks, I have found the x86 version too.
My question is not where I can find Chrome or other software, rather *why* marks Google my device as not compatible with apps like Chrome when apparently they seem to function fine (except geolocation). Also I know that if I change the build.prop file I could fake my device to something else.
This method http://www.ghacks.net/2013/05/06/find-out-why-apps-are-incompatible-with-your-android-device/ does not work for me, I dont see those tooltips.
I think this incompatible issues from ARM, ARM64 or x86 based Android device.
One more another I guess is N1 is not cetifified from google maybe.

Its not a x86 compatibility issue since these apps work when sideloaded. And its not a certification issue (I guess) since other apps like Gmail are available on the Play store.
My feeling is that this has to do something with geolocation not working in some apps. For example:
Firefox - Available on the play store, does not use Google Play Services, has working geolocation.
GMail - Available on the play store, uses Google Play Services, but does not need geolocation.
Chrome, Google Maps - Not available on the play store, uses Google Play Services for geolocation, geolocation is broken.
Or just search for GPS apps, you will see that the most of them are not compatible with the N1.
So I think Google Play Services/something else reports to the Play Store that the device has no geolocation, and some apps mark it as a required hardware feature, thus the Play Store will not show them.
I've tried to find some error via Catlog, but have not seen any.
But this is just a theory, we need more testing to verify it.
Yes, you right.
I don't have consider this issues from locations.
Do you have any idea fix this issue?
I like to to test.
Most of incompatible apps are available in Nokia store app. Then you can update these apps on Google Play Store.
Hi, Have just restored a Nova Backup on a new phone, with only a few of my standard apps already installed.
Hence, on running Nova, most of the apps are 'grayed out'. Normally in this situations, I click on them, tells me they're not installed and offers to search/install, but, this then opens the Play Store app quickly, but then immediately opens a web browser, at the Google Play store, and things don't go well from there... Have not seen this behaviour on previous phones?
How can I get it to actually install from the Play Store app?
Have checked defaults and nothing wierd there, and also if I disable/uninstall browsers, it tells me to install one as it is needed??
Thanks,
John.
EDIT: Just discovreed this isn't just for Nova, appears that if an app wants to install another app, it opens PlayStore app, momentarily, which then opens a browser...???
Would REALLY like a fix...
