Youtube and adobe reader are preinstalled on this phone, but don't show up under "my apps" in the market. Since they are not there, I didn't know that updates were available for them until I was searching around the market.
So if you care, they can be updated.
New youtube version is 2.1.6

Yea I found that a week or so ago (or whenver they updated, but it is pretty annoying that they weren't showing up there)
I tried clearing cache in Settings->Apps->Market, but it didn't work.
Thanks for the heads up though.
I was bouncing around the market the other day and saw the gmail program and it didn't say I had it installed. Is htc using a custom one or what's the difference? Anyone else see that?

Good to know. I had updates unapplied from Facebook and Youtube.
The Youtube update is a big one if I remember correctly. It's supposed to make the search results for the mobile client more like what you'd see on a computer.

I just came across this just now. According to Droid Life, there is a new google music apk when the test market was accidently released. I was curious if anyone has gotten sync to work? Possibly using titanium to remove the HTC music app then installing the new google music apk? I'm currently tied up at work and school and unable to test this out.

Look over in the development forum. I posted a copy of the leaks. The music app works without uninstalling anything.

Under Accounts & sync, click Google. You should now have a 'Sync Music' option.
I tried this last night and never really got it to work properly. I have like 10 gigs of music on my phone and it continued to sync all night and through today. I finally chose to shut off the sync option and run with what's on my phone. Not like I'm running out of room with this monster sd card lol. I'll let them get it officially up and running first. I just clicked on the instructions link in the other thread. They're easy to follow, all seemed to go smooth. Dunno. Maybe it does work, and I should have chose to test with just a few songs instead.
Probably an easy question but when I go into my apps it lists everyone I ever downloaded. How do I get rid of them so I dont have to scroll or auto download?
Guess nobody knows?
It should only list the ones you paid for, and of course the ones you have currently installed.
Free apps that you downloaded, and then uninstalled should only stay there until reboot (I believe)

Nope lists everything I ever had. Sick of going through 10 pages of stuff.
Try going into settings applications and market (or google play if you have the updated one), clear cache and data then open the maket up again accepting the terms and conditions. Go to my apps again and it should have cleared them.

I agree with clearing the market/play cache in app management.

Ok normally I can figure this out. Guess Im a little slow today but dont see that anywhere. I open google play , go to settings and dont have that option anywhere.
Go into phone settings not google play settings. Then applications then all tab at the top of screen. Find google play and tap it tap clear cache and clear data. Then start google play app as normal and accept the terms and conditions. Job done hopefully!

Because he used the words "10 pages of stuff", I believe the OP is talking about the website, not the phone app. https://play.google.com/store does show every app you've downloaded. It'll also show old phones you may not even own anymore. No way to get rid of them afaik, and if you google the problem theres all sorts of talk about it out there.

Yes that is correct as Ive flashed several Roms and anything I did have would have been cleared by now. Also yes to the webpage for google and it lists phones. That has changed several times. Guess I will google and try and find the answer. Thanks.
Post back if you do find a solution but the last I dug around on the subject a month or so ago, old apps and old devices are not removable from the Play website. Its something Google controls and there is nothing end users can do at this point.
Here's a good start for you with some relevant links: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1442148
While the link(s) above pertain mostly to removing old devices, the same goes for old apps. It seems Google is quite aware of it but does not want to give us control over removing such items.
The question of the day is, why?

Nobody wants to give up control. When setting up a Rom I have had it try to use Backup Asst. and I dont want it. So when I set up google I use to get these texts from verizon. Some whack crap. Called and funny how one tech takes care of it and the other is plain out stupid. I had one say freeze/force stop backup asst which you cant do because force stop just restarts. One tech took care of it and the other put in a trouble ticket.
Hi,
Since trying out all these new ROMs out there (hats off to their wonderful work), I've noticed that the att modded roms have a market feature that's been driving me batty. I'm not saying its the at&t roms, but I've just noticed this since I started these roms.
The"my app" section used to have a list of the installed apps, and below it was a list on the apps I've purchased, which is cool.
What I've noticed recently in the"my apps" section is a page with the installed apps, then if I swipe to the right, the page shows all the purchased apps, plus all the other apps I've installed since I've started using the market (ones I've stopped using out didn't like and uninstalled). Which I'd cluttered and annoying when reloading apps.
My question is, if it is the version of the market, can I load the Rogers version of the market, out if that isn't practical, can I devourer this list somehow?
Not a huge issue, but an annoyance.
Thank you in advance.

Thanks for all the great info. I want aware that was a feature of the new play market.
It's very annoying.. Thanks for the advice of restoring from titanium. I should be able to pull a market apk out of an old ROM zip and install it.
Play needs filters!
Google needs to have a way to sort purchased apps from every other app I downloaded within the past 6 months, which is MANY. I have to scroll 3 pages then might see one purchased app, scroll two more pages to see another couple...

What that guy said.
I find it easier to manage my apps from a computer. I just log onto my google account and then send the apps to the device I want them on...
https://play.google.com/apps
market, website bug
Using PC was my bright idea, untill I figured out, that it only shows you about 10 pages of your apps, alphabeticaly, and there is no way to show next one, so my list ends on letter G.
Also using market on the device after choosing to install an app from the list, I am returned to the beginning of the [email protected]#! Major annoyance.
Also I have restored the device and then logged back in using same account, only to figure that it will not put all the apps back on...
So, if I could have a suggestion- could we have ability to have an app list to install in one click on a new device? Or at the least could we have our apps list with boxes for checkmarks, so we can check all of the nessesary apps and then install them?.... sigh
Does anybody know what this is?i always get it when i turn the internet connection on.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
that does not look good. maybe you got yourself a virus there.
you should check your installed apps for suspicious / fake ones. also have a look at the app list in titanium backup, which will also show apps, that do not show up in the app drawer.
but in general, if i were you, i would fully wipe the device, including the internal and external sd card, flash your rom again and instead of restoring apps from a backup, let them re-install from the play store (only safe ones of course).
maybe someone that can read chinese can tell you the exact contents of that notification, but i am 97% sure that it is not something good and your personal data and privacy might be at stake.
you havent at any time installed hotmail app of google play have you??
I had similar thing happen, in chinese, and after debugging the system i narrowed it down to the hotmail app, i was getting like 40 or 50 empty mssge boxes a day, once i uninstalled it, it stopped.
From the screenshot, that is advertisement in Chinese language.
I would recommended you to recall the last application that you have install to the phone, remove it and see did it help?
At the same time, both applicationa that can be found in Google Play may help to prevent similar issue happened in future. ^^

Good thing you've solved the problem.
I assume you were receiving Airpush ads; and to prevent this happening in the future, and also for others who come across these, I recommend Addons Detector from the Play Market. It finds the culprit app.
I've looked around but I haven't been able to find a way to view only the apps that I've purchased from the "my apps" tab in the play store. It shows me just about every app that I've downloaded since the introduction of the play store, including EVERY SINGLE free app that I ever downloaded and uninstalled. This is a huge oversight on googles part and it's really annoying.
Anybody aware of any fixes?

Not that I know of.. I was looking through mine today too and hoping I could sort them by most recently installed, but no sort options whatsoever that I could find. And there's a ton of free crap that I've installed and uninstalled, wish I could just remove some of them from the list.
I called google maybe 3 months ago to ask about this. I too thought it was annoying as hell. But was told by the rep that this was how "google" wanted the my apps list to do and there wasn't a plan to fix it..

It's such an obvious flaw I can't see how they'd actually want it that way. It has absolutely no practical use. At the very least they could have given us the option to sort the apps somehow.
In a previous release of the play store there was a way y to view your paid apps but after an update a few months ago they took out that option.
The only thing that would work would be an older modified version with the "auto update " feature stripped from it

So frustrated by this, I have hundreds (most of them no longer in use) of apps listed under "My orders" with no way to sort them by price.
How am I to find my paid for apps Google?
I think we all should send a request to Google to fix this.

You still can open playstore hit apps then slide screen to left. You have top paid apps top free best paid and so one. It still seperates them.

Yeah it kind of sucks even free apps your try once for a minute and delete get stuck to your "owned" list.
What really sucks is I have 4 android devices, including a googletv unit and all the apps I've ever downloaded on my other devices show up on my phones app list.

If you want to push the Apps to your Device just jump on the Computer and go to https://play.google.com/apps and click install and it will install on your chosen device
