Lost access to copy protected apps after root + A2SD

Hi guys I rooted my desire using the live cd method, powered up my phone before installing a2sd and I could see all of my download history on the market with access to all apps. After this I booted into recovery using step2 on the live cd and installed A2SD. When I turned the phone on again all of the download history was gone and I can't see apps like Google Earth, National Rail etc.
I thought I did something wrong so I wiped the device and installed the rooted rom update again with a2sd at the same time. The problem still exists and nothing has changed.
Could you please help me because this is very annoying and I cant set up my phone the I want until this is resolved.

Very strange... Use Market enabler > http://market-enabler.googlecode.com/files/MarketEnabler_latest.html
install, apply new settings and reboot, problem solved

Thanks for the suggestion but the market enabler doesn't solve it, I tried it.
Another strange thing that I found is I have an .apk of CoPilot which I was using before rooting and when I tried installing it now it gives me an error "Application not installed".

I still haven't solved this problem and its really bugging me.
I un-rooted my phone and used a different google account with no luck. I still don't see some applications in the market.
Just to let you know I am in the UK using a generic sim free desire on 3 network. Could you please, please, please help me out. I am running out of options and I thought unrooting would fix it.

Weird issue you are describing. As far as I know it depends on the fingerprint of the build.prop in the ROM (and if Google added it to the white list(?)) or not.
Many people are using the rooted ROM (all the same build.prop) and they can access protected apps just fine. So probably the problem lies elsewhere.

I have a similar problem, before I rooted my device I could see all apps I bought in my g1 days. After I rooted first of all none showed up, after a day or so only a few showed up... rebooted a few more times (only ever flashed once using Windows with apps2sd) now I have a few I had before show up not all just a few and thats how its been since. weird. I had half results :/

Same problem here with one single application.
Had SlideIT paid version installed on stock firmware.
Once i rooted it gave me the message "application not installed" once i tried to install it.
Funny enough the SlideIT lite version is still able to install fine.
Definitely want it to work again, so i hope someone knows how to fix it

I tried a couple of different ROMs today and had this same problem, clicking My Downloads would just show a blank screen, and there was no "Top Paid Apps" tab. I tried unrooting, rerooting, nothing fixed it, until I found this;

Pushing that xml file (note the spelling mistake before you do it) fixed it all back up, no idea what caused it to get all messed up and why it wasn't fixed by wiping and reflashing.

I tried to push the file via adb shell in windows and got permission denied. Am I doing it right or do I need to root the phone again to be able to push that file because I have reverted back to the generic stock rom?

Mine was rooted when I pushed it, try re-rooting it and pushing it again I guess.

I finally got around to re-rooting it and tried your solution with pushing that file but no change to my market
Just to be clear I can see the Top Paid apps tab, but I cant access copy protected apps like Google Earth.

[Q] rooted - gapps not working

So in my infinite drunken wisdom I decided to root my Galaxy last night...
(First time I root a cellphone, I have rooted Kindles before)
I found a video online, followed directions and it was a breeze..
Until I decided it was not "custom" enough and I install CyanogedMod
Google was missing so I downloaded, boot phone and install from boot
Some APS installed, some did not...
When I reboot my phone there is a flashing window, I can't really tell what it says because it goes away before I can read it
---
I know I messed up something...
There is no keyboard now...
Unfortunately, Android keyboard (AOSP) has stopped
Appears when I try to use keyboard
How can I make it work?
Please help

go into recovery mode clear data/cache/dalvic. now reflash your rom with the gapps package clear cache/dalvik reboot

Yeah...
Is not working
Phone starts with "updating apps" # of 83
After the updating is done, cyro starts again... and I get the "Keyboard" is not working message

OK, i already did the whole process a couple of times...
I keep getting the same error, the keyboard
I think the problem is with cyanogen, i don't know how to uninstall/replace it

OK, i got it working
I had to install a different version of gapps
gapps-jb-20130301-signed
that version did it for me
thanks for your help, though

[Q] galaxy tab 3 10.1 suddenly unrooted giving weird problems

Hello!! i come to the best forum desperately looking for help after three days of weird behaviour, i had already rooted my galaxy tab 3 10.1 using a guide i found here on xda-developers months ago, i cant remember which one, it used Odin and custom recovery says BinDroid CWM-based recovery v6.0.2.8, it was successfully rooted, installed busybox 1.21.1 (stericsson) almost all root apps working fine, but some of them like network spoofer or dsploit telling that busybox was not installed correctly or some binary could not be found, im not a tech noob, but definitely new to android, so one day i tried installing them both in /system/xbin and /system/bin because some apps read from one directory or the other and the dual install would not be harmful for the device, also installed it symlinking with manual install, after i did that, those apps worked finally!! but, root checker said my device was not rooted anymore... so weird
So i tried rooting again over CWM, same method and still showing no root access, i decided then to make a full factory reset, after doing that, wifi is stuck on "obtaining ip address" avoided slow connection, it only connects when i set a static ip, some problem with dhcp i guess, and also, super user app is still there but showing no SU found and not able to uninstall the app, only shows the option, enable and disable, tired of this, i followed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625805 with both ROMs in order to go back to stock, both installed just fine, but i saw "installing busybox" during the process, is that suposed to happen with a stock rom? i mean the first one on the thread suposed to be the stock one, and the second rom is not showing root access on root checker either, even though the author says it is rooted ... at least super user app is no longer there, but both ROMs still stuck on "obtaining ip" bucle, and now it got worse, most apps downloaded are not working, chrome for example opens for a second and closes, other apps open, but only show a black screen and the notification bar, i uploaded the root.zip i used for rooting in first place, please tell me if there is something left to do to fix this, anything, i would really apreciate it!!
Apologize my bad english and my ignorance on android... thanks for reading and all help in advance!!

Hey there,
Please search the forum to root your tab again

[Q] How do I unbrick my SM-P600?

I recently rooted the SM-P600 (Wi-Fi Version) tablet and went too far when I undownloaded Google Play Store firmware.
So when my play store kept crashing, I panicked and factory reset my whole tablet to try to start new. This was the dumbest move on my part.
I cannot create a new account because Google Play Store firmware keeps crashing when it is trying to connect to google.
I then held my power button, volume down key, and home button to go into download mode, but it opens up saying "no command"....."error".
I am right now downloading the stock firmware for the tablet to attempt to use Odin3 to recover my tablet. If that method doesn't work, I would like to get some help of how I can update the tablet via external memory.
If anybody has encountered the same exact/similar problem and has had a success, please help me
This information would be valuable to any distressed android user and to the community.
If you need photos just tell me and I will send them to you (or post to xda)
Thank you

I rooted my phone twice; once with Kingroot and then with proper method and don't kno

...and don't know what is happening know.
I rooted my phone first with Kingroot and it got its place in my phone. Then I tried to uninstall bloatware. I saw Chrome using about 45MB of space. I was happy that now I'll kick it away and other apps. But when Kingroot shown Chrome, it shown Chrome as using only 10MB and same with other apps. Original space apps were using were not shown but much less than that. Anyway, I uninstalled all of them. About 6 or 7. After uninstallation I checked my Device Storage, it was still 1.45GB as it was before uninstallation. WTF! Even now, as those apps were disabled, I got 6 or 7 Android dummies in my phone like all those are apps.
Then I rebooted my device and those dummies were gone. The Kingroot experience was pathetic. It doesn't even freed up space as expected. Well I proceeded to properly root my device. Found this thread for my upgraded-to-lollipop phone and downloaded and installed as said in that thread. I flashed TWRP via Odin and then flashed SuperSU via TWRP.
Rebooted and came to system to use. Opened SuperSU and it shown error "binaries need updating". I updated this app and used "Use TWRP to install binaries" and even Normal mode too; as said in some other thread here but no luck.
I even get "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" everytime I go to recovery mode but everything seems working fine. As with other users seeing same message, I am getting to TeamWork UI successfully (don't know why that message is displaying). Now All I want is to know is is my device is healthy? And can I install other custom ROMs. I though made a backup using TWRP.
My device: Samsung Grand Prime (SM-G530H). Was Kitkat when purchased but I upgraded to Lollipop 5.0.2.
Thanks for any answers.

Download a custom rom and flash via twrp if u already backup up the stock rom. Most of ur issues will be solved already
