[Q] Anyone have issues with XDA App after rom restores? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I never have any issues with any other apps after I restore via CWM. The XDA App though is always a problem. I bought the Premium version through Amazon and use it now as I'm on AOKP. When I was on UnNamed before, I had a ICS themed version from one of the theme devs. I still have that apk.
I recently went back for just an hour to my UnNamed backup and now I'm back into AOKP. I cannot for the life of me get the app to reinstall. The shorcut says 'App isn't installed' and whether I try to install the themed version or the version from Amazon, both come back and say 'X Application not installed'.
I see no reference of it anywhere in my apps list and no option to remove it. Even TiBu won't restore it - it stalls out. No apk in /data/app.
Any ideas?
[EDIT] I went through via Root Explorer and removed everything I could find doing a search for 'XDA' that looked like it might be some rogue file left behind and removed it. Yeah that did nothing.
Oh and one last thing, this has been an ongoing issue from when I was on UnNamed as well. Back whenever I'd do a complete wipe and restore, XDA would always need to be reinstalled. I can't think of ONE time where it worked perfect.

I am unable to get XDA premium to install after flashing an ics rom. I even went back to Gingerbread and it still wont install. Ive just settled on using the free version.

Yeah I went back to GB last night and was unable to install my ICS Premium themed version (apk on sd card) but the Premium version on Amazon installed fine. This issue has me baffled beyond belief...

So I finally found the source of the problem. Because I bought the App from Amazon, each and every time I do a restore, the Amazon Store info for whatever reason gets screwed up. The system thinks it's still installed yet it's nowhere to be found.
The long and short of it is that you have to 'Clear Data' in 'Manage Applications' for the Amazon App. After doing this, log back in and the XDA App then shows back up as 'Install' instead of 'Open'. Pretty screwy but it works.

Evolution Fonts - Flash in CWM

I edited the Evolution_Font install zip so that it doesn't remove the odex files. I just installed this using Clockwork and it's working fine for me. I recommend making a nandroid before doing this though just in case and as always if you brick your phone don't blame me.
The original font pack came from the Evolution theme, I don't take any credit for this and if whoever did create it wants it taken down I have no problem doing so.

edit: Added the Default font if you want to switch back.
I flashed it but now for some reason I cant load my downloads in the market, prob unrelated but other than that fonts work just fine.
Ok after a reboot it works just fine now, wonder what that was?
The font is a lot smaller than the stock, but I like it. Like it gives it a cleaner look or something.
after running quadrant with that loaded, I am convinced it did something else, the screen just looks more crisp.

itd entirely possible there is some sort of server maintenance or something... when i installed app brain a month ago there just happened to be server issues that night.. i assumed it was the new software.. logical right?
im running some backup/restore tests now... takes a while...
I couldn't get anything to authorize or download from market... used nandroid backup and worked fine after...

my first phone blew up and I am on a replacement, running JT 1.2 voodoo and fonts still installed fine and no market error.
Love it...

not completely related, but i figured since the OP knows of the themes the fonts originate from, would i be able to just install the Launcher pro that is themes in the bugless evolution rom? i basically want the widgets...
edit: so i decided to just make a nandroid and then see what happens.
worked just fine! the widgets and the font go nicely together!
Thanks now if we could get a flipfont apk port that would be great.
Love the font, but I too am getting a market error. Trying to install other apps and it FC's and then the apps are stuck "installing" can't cancel them out.
Flipped to wifi, same issue. Gonna shut it down, pop the battery and see if that does the trick.
EDIT: Yup, market still continues to crash even after a couple reboots and a battery pull. Why would this cause the install/market to crash?
which market apk are you using? the original one or the 2.2 version?
mine is working fine (i use the 2.2 market)
Using the updated version. As far as I recall.

no, i'm running it on the stock rom with root and voodoo
My setup Voodoo/oc'd kernel/aosp boot animations/deodexed Market 2.2 and have NO issues with this font whatsoever.
You did flash it through CWM correct?
I uninstalled the market update, went back in and downloaded the apps that were hung on install (as they were still showing "installing..." on the market page, even after a CWM restore) and it worked.
I can live without the new market until 2.2

Market not downloading owt

I'm constaltly getting download unsuccessful whenever I try to get anything off the market, I've followed the advice of a few threads and cleared the cache and stuff, not got any updates showing or added to the market, any help would be greatly welcome
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
+1 here.
I removed also the marked update from last week.
Any tip any one?
It's been more than 24 hours I can't download anything...
What's wrong?
same here, everything gives 'download unsuc....'
Seems like it's a more global problem than you'd think. I have had the same problem today. Had 2 apps that wanted to update, allowed it and it says "Download unsuccessful". After that tried to DL one that I don't have installed and it starts, pauses, starts, pauses, etc.
Eventually, after ca 20 mins it finally downloads.
I think it'll get sorted out by Google
Same here.

I too removed the market update and everything works again.

today i was able to update titanium backup, but it was slower than other times (stuck on "starting download")
worked after removing market update, but now I don't see the remaining updates on apps, hope it realize sooner or later that I have my pending upgrades.
Same here.. clearing cache didnt work - think mine was to do with a Paid Ap trying to update which has now vanished.
Decided easier to wait for 2.1 than troubleshoot further..
Repair via pc companion and it worked
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Okay, I just tried and mine finally works okay.
Really wouldn't want to repair the unit just so I could wipe it again when 2.1 comes out
same here!
Market not downloading after the Update!
Is there a way to get it working again without removing the latest Market Update? I realy want to keep it!
Remove the update, it'll install again after some time (this time correctly) as I understand it
I do not have an option to remove market update in the market section of manage applications. There is a separate one underneath market titled market updater. I am working on market version 1669 is this the latest version?
Please no derisory comments, im not the most tech savvy!
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I have the same market. I just cleared cleared the cache, restarted the phone and after a few hours everything went back to normal. That's the only advice I can give you since I had the same problem
Sent from my nX10i using XDA App
Uninstalled update... Nothing happened.
Guess I'll have to wait for the eclair update...
it's not instantaneous. It takes awhile to work again
I had same problem with girlfriends x10. Fixed it by going to:
Settings>applications> manage applications> market>uninstall market updates. Button should be at very bottom of info page. This cleared things up in a hurry. Was back up and dl'ing apps a minute later with no problems!
This will send market back to old state. Does not remove any application updates, just changes the market software
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
did also work on my X10!
deinstalled market update in application-management -> downloads worked
market updated again automatically -> downloads still worked
but 2 days ago i had to repeat this...the downloads didn't start, like before...
same thing: updates deinstalled, downloads work...let's see, for how long i need to do that...
@SE: update?!?!

[Q] Is the market having issues?

No matter what rom (with wipe of data, cache, and Dalvik), known-good Nandroid backup I restore, or anything else I can think of, I cannot get the Market to work. This is driving me bonkers! I've tried CM7, das Bamf 1.6 and 1.6.1, I've tried old Virus backups, and have even flashed Bolted, Lightning rom, and a couple others. I simply cannot get apps to download, and all environments give me 503s in my logs. So this sounds like it's down but I searched and expected to see posts all over about it. So I'm stumped.

Had the same issue, no replys tho. I ended up calling Verizon and after the tech guy "held my hand" thru his "testing", he just put me in for a replacement. I did notice that market seems to be working a bit now. It wasn't working after I uprooted bone stock, but today it seems to be kinda working.

So after sleeping, it's still broken for me. I did additional testing and either the market is very broken or my market account is screwed up. I tried on my 2 other devices (a Nook Color and a G1, both on wifi) and neither of them with either.
I did some heavy flashing of various roms yesterday, so could they have disabled my account, or something, thinking it was hacked?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Okay, so no matter what I do, I can't initiate a download from my phone. I can, however, initiate a download from the web version of the Market, and this works with at least my TBolt and Nook (didn't bother trying on my G1 - assumed it either worked or I didn't care).
However, this is incredibly aggravating not being able to use my phone to install software via the Market applications!
I've discovered the problem (kinda) and can offer a fix. The problem was that network settings (grouped with things like wifi passwords) get backed up and restored automatically by Google, and mine were somehow corrupted. The fix was to go into Settings -> Privacy and uncheck the backup/restore checkboxes. If you do this right, it will prompt you to confirm and will say that it will erase the settings on Google's servers.
After this, you may need to wipe one more time.

New Market...zzZzzzzZzzzzz

Is it just me or does the new Android Market suck. Don't mind the addition of content but the thing is just slow now. Once it loads, trying to go to my apps or other screens brings up the "Loading..." prompt and it seems to sit there forever. Never had this problem on the old one.
Plus, sometimes it will tell me apps need to be updated, I will go click on them, and no update button. Just "Open" and "Uninstall"?? It does it opposite too. Some apps will have an update but it won't tell me. If I go look at the app it won't show that an update is available until I click on it. Then sometimes I have to update the thing twice just to get it to take.
Granted this could be an issue with Juggs update.zip file, Titanium, or something else but I'll put my money on the Market app.
I'm runninga completely stock MoPho and I get the same market "false" updates. I think the MoPho market needs a serious update. I'm almost to the point where I'll only use appbrain. Hopefully this is on their long list of things to fix!
I experience the same issues, it's the app.
Yes
..i downloaded market older version but it always update back to the current version.....suks
Moto photon
The same thing happens on all android phones, not just the photon.
Just go into settings and manage apps and uninstall the update. If your rooted you can delete the market updater.apk

Happens to me daily. I just click update all and that solves the problem fora day or so
Yes new market is junk... i got an apk off 4shared and permanently replaced it via root explorer..Old market works like a champ loads fast way better

Apps not staying installed

Some of my apps are not staying installed. Anyone else ever run into this problem? Then when I go into the settings/manage applications the com/blahblahblah file is there with a little SD card image next to it but nothing actually installed. I do not move the apps to the SD card either.
More information? Rom? Etc?
I have this very same issue on the stock rom, I am rooted running ADW ex I notice that an application is no longer installed after random reboots. Never consistently though. one random sd card app will disappear from my list of applications and would have to reinstall it from the android market or reboot several times and it may come back on its own.
Wow thats so weird. I swear I made a post about this back in Sept and people probably thought I was crazy lol. I would reboot and my XDA or Riptide Gp would always disappear. I couldn't understand it, those suckers were deleting themselves every time. I started using titanium backup and I would just go reinstall it along with data. It would happen to me using adwEX as well and once I went back to the stock launcher and it hasn't happened since. Going a month without an app deleting itself now. This issue is definitely way over my head...

I've had the same issue. Apps kept disappearing. A soft reboot wouldn't bring them back, but I found if you pull the battery, the apps come back. I'm stock and rooted.

I went into the system/app folder with Root Explorer and found the following apk's with a blue icon rather than the ones they would normally have. I dont know wtf happened to my phone but it's been kinda jacked lately. Stock rooted only.

How did you get back to your stock launcher? It's BlurHome correct? I no longer have it as a choice although it's showing in my apps folder and is installed

I also think that this may have happened after flashing the no clock zip in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377557
I never noticed it before then.
Edit, my girlfriends has the same things missing and she does not have the clock mod so it's not that. She also uses GoLauncher and it stock rooted.
Home apk and moto fm radio apk's are installed but the apps don't show up. Does anyone know the correct permissions for these two?
Rooted Stock
My apps are disappearing too. Very weird, not sure why. Was using GO Launcher, switched to Zeam. Hope to see some improvements
I still can't figure out why I have my FM radio on my system/app folder but it is not in my apparently drawer. My stock home lanucher will not launch either and says "this is not a motoblur device" wtf?
