Can't download apps from Market / SD apps will show in Market but not downloaded - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I'm facing a problem with downloading apps from the Market.
First of all, I'm on rendeiro's froyo rom.
After one of my last reboots, I missed like 50% of my apps (probably the ones installed on sd card). When I looked in the Market, I saw that particular apps in 'my apps' as not installed. When I look in my phone I can see them in my settings, but my phone can't identify the size and that stuff. I also can't see them in my app drawer.
Anyone has the solution to my problem. Thnx in advance

Which froyo ROM of Rendeiro2005 is it? That way I can help you better.
My solution is you reflash the ROM on xrecovery first. Sounds like a little glitch in the first time you flash.

Thnx for helping me out. It's not the First time I flashed a rom. It's like the fourth rom I use.
Reflashing won't help. Any other ideas?

First try a different sd card to see if it your current one is a bad one.
I only try sandisk micro sd cards
Then try........
Try starting over with flashtool with flashing 2.1 se firmware again. Do you know how do that?

This happened to me when I restored a backup through xrecovery after about a week cos my latest tinkering caused a bootloop. All the apps that I had updated that week were gone just like yours, but only SD ones. Its cause the part held on SD no longer matches the version on phone. I just opened appbrain and synced and they all showed to update again, so I did and they all came back. Might not be same for you but hope this helps.

Just download appbrain from market, I use it more than market itself, really handy interface as you can choose to skip updates on apps and other cool features.

That would be easy if the Market could find it..

How odd, finds it for me. Try searching 'swiss codemonkeys' it should be second app on list.

I did, but the problem is that I can't download any app from the Market. It simply doesn't work.
Also I can't connect to computer, so don't know what to do now. Any ideas?

Try and flash the newest version of the market via recovery, you can find the zip on the opening page of wolfbreaks v006 thread in dev section. If that don't work then I guess its time for a fresh start. Good luck.

Ok, well I'll try that..
For the second option you will need to connect the phone to computer, but it doesn't connect; my pc doesn't recognizes my phone..

Download a new rom zip from the dev section using your phone and then boot to recovery. Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache etc. Do it twice lol. Then flash your zip. Backup what you got first tho cos it might go wrong. Try market and connection to PC on a fresh rom. That's what I'd do but I am not qualified to tell you what to do!

Have you tried connecting the phone to the computer through xrecovery on phone with usb cable?

No, didn't know that was a possibility. Just boot into xRecovery and then connect to computer?

Yes then go under one of the menus and find the usb mount selection.

I found it, thnx. Now I flashed back to standard 2.1 software. My market works with this version, but as soon as I install any custom rom it doesn't work anymore. Does anyone know what's the problem?

Just installed a Miui rom. Just love it but the market also doesn't work on this one. Howcome the market works on stock rom but on none of the custom roms?
