"Not Supported" message
I'm having an issue with the Market (Google Play): About 70% of the apps I look at in the Market tell me "Your device isn't compatible with this item".
At first I thought it was a botched ROM flash (tuesday -new beggining) so I did a full wipe & reloaded the same ROM; same issue (about 90% of apps gave that error).
I recently loaded Paradox II (the 3/05 release) and did a full wipe as directed (flashed the wipe util's that were posted). Before restoring any of my apps I checked the market for the paid ones I use that were installed while on the rooted factory ROM (like MyBackup Pro) and got the same message. Some of the apps that "weren't supported" when on the Tuesday ROM were all the sudden supported & downloadable.
I had all apps backed up with MyBackup Pro and installed just the apps (no settings) using the BusyBox option. Every app worked just fine & market links restored but when going to market to update one of the installed & working apps, it'd say not compatible.
Thinking this was a market issue, I uninstalled the updates, cleared data/cache, and installed various versions of Market (including the new one) that were talked about in other threads about Market errors... did not fix it.
When going to the Market on my computer and looking at apps that are installed or were installed pre-custom ROM, it has my SGH-T989 grayed out. I checked build.prop and couldn't see anything with the device identification that looked wrong.
This is preventing a lot of my installed apps to not be able to be updated... Any ideas as to what is causing this? Did I fubar something when doing the first custom ROM flash?
Here are some of the major apps that are saying they are incompatible:
Adobe Flash Player
Astrid Task
Documents to Go
Dolphin Browser HD
DropBox
MyBackupPro
SuperUser

Is there a list of these files anywhere that you know of? I ran in to an issue a while back on my G2x when doing something similar to this after a failed theme flash.
Under system/app I have marketupdater.apk but nothing else...
/data/app. Mine is called com.android.vending

Update on this issue...
I cleared the cache/data for Play Store, uninstalled updates, turned off data, cleared cache/data for Market, went through and deleted all Market related apps/folders:
data/data/com.android.vending (folder)
data/data/com.android.vending.updater (folder)
data/app/com.android.vending.apk
system/app/MarketUpdater.apk
system/app/vending.apk
- I reinstalled the last version of Market that was posted on goo then let it update to Play Store. This resulted in more apps being "compatible" but still had quite a few coming up as "incompatible" (that I had installed & knew worked on the GS2). After further research I found a scenario on another Samsung phone that the lowering the LCD Density caused this same issue. After setting it back to 240 & reinstalling the Market again, the issue was resolved...
I would love to lower the density again but don't want to mess up the Market. Does anyone know of a tweak that will allow this (I'm thinking a build.prop mod)?
Alright, so I decided to use Root Uninstaller to freeze some apps such as the AT&T Software Update and various other Samsung apps. Unfortunately, I haven't been unable to unfreeze the apps regardless of whether or not I use Root Uninstaller or Titanium Backup. If I use either Root Uninstaller or Titanium Backup, they each say they have unfrozen the app, but if I go to use the app, It will not work; the phone will not recognize it is even installed.
Any help would be appreciated.
I just updated to the Rt66 T999UVDMD5.
Everything went nice and dandy. I noticed in the Play store I had the option of uninstalling some TMO apps and Google Play apps.
So I did but when I restarted my phone, the apps I just uninstalled updated and installed again.
I know I can prevent auto-updates but how can I delete these apps permanently?
Can I assume to delete them via Root Explorer?
Yes or disable with Titanium Backup or ROM Toolbox.
I have a problem after a restart today my phone got in a bootloop all of a sudden.
do you know how to indentify and maybe get rid of the culprit???
Data:
GNote 2 International (N7100) 16GB
Root, TWRP, Note Runner 2.3 (DMC3-Build)
Simplistic Framework
Root apps like Tasker Secure Settings, SuperSU, Titanium and others.
also tried several things before:
Cache deleting, killing superSU app data (therefore root apps not getting root again) or deleting recent root apps.
even a system only restore doesnt work
A few days ago random apps started downloading and installing by themselves. Not from the app store, but appeared to be their apk files downloaded from the the internet. It happens few times a day and they keep coming back after I uninstall them. I did a factory reset but that still didn't help. I also unchecked allow installation from unknown sources still doesn't work. I want to get rid of them permanently. How can I do that. Some of the apps are DU cleaner, DU battery saver, Go launcher, APUS, and 4 shareapps. Thanks you.
All of them might be from the sites you go to, advertisements that downloads the apks when you click on some link. Try ad-blocking and only install apps on the play store..
Any app can't be installed by itself without having root access. So if you have a rooted phone, check the list of granted apps from SuperSU and also check your installed apps because there must be an app which is downloading and installing other apps from the Internet.
