If the rom includes the FREE version, which it usually does, then you need to uninstall it and install again from the Market.
Then it will recognize the key. The Donate version sees the key, the FREE version does not.
I know it's weird, but that's how it is.
I know some Rom Devs won't include the Donate version, so as to avoid users or "XDA Mods" from thinking that the Paid version was cooked in.
As some don't do their homework and jump to conclusions when the app auto identifies their key and they don't know it does so.
Just sayin'....hope that helps.
In any case, an uninstall and reinstall from Market should do the trick.

thanks...the rom didnt have titanium...i installed it in recovery from making an update.zip within Titanium Pro...Titanium Pro doesnt put the Pro Version in the update.zip when u create it?
i ended up just hitting not restore apps when signing on google and re-installed key...i just thought that the update.zip was supposed to avoid that step? i see that today u can put apps in update.zip but still curious

Oh I see. Not sure what it does when it backs itself up to be honest.
The key is generally stored on your SD card as far as I know.
But maybe that's changed as well, not really sure.
I find relying on using TiBu for backing up restoring much of anything generally causes me more trouble then it's worth.
But that's just my experience and preference.
So anyhow, as far as I know, the update zip won't have the key in it.
I think it's either the old style where it finds it on sd card, or waits until you sign in to Google to identify the device ID.

Ummmm. The key installs as a seperate app. Its on the market. Just go get it. Freaking Amazing.

Never for me, I always had to re-download it from the market whenever I flashed a new ROM.

so are we supposed to be able to flash the pro version or not? cause I can't and if not I don't see the point. I'll have to try that method of including all apps in the zip. never saw that...

Hi,
I am new on Marshmallow and have problem with tb since that ... The tb key app is installed but it is not recognized ... anything I can do or do I need to google further?

update-Market3.1.3.zip for installing in OR

Last market 3.1.3 for installing in OR. For me it's more comfortable then apk because it's system application
Work without any problems on all versions of CM including CM6.3.0-RC3. Also it must work on any our ROM
Do you have an update to make the marker back to the old one froyo uses? The new one is very slow and I don't like it. Titanium backup doesn't work.
Sent from my MilestoneXT720 using XDA App
You should be able to use TB to restore the old market. Are you using Free or Paid version b/c free only allows 1 backup. I don't like the new Market either and use TB to restore 2.3.6. I am at work, so I can't upload anything but if no one does it by tonight or tomorrow, I'll get it in here for you.

You can reinstall the update gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed..you may remove the system apps you don't need from the folder system/app..or you can use this update (see attachment), which is gapps without many system apps I personally always delete. Before using it check if some you may need are missing.

Well, it depends on which ROM. CM6 uses the gapps update but I don't think the others do.
Another way to get the ROM's original market is to use Yaffs Explorer to browse your nandroid backups.
Here is the old market. Flashing it will replace your existing market. First remove any market updates. Then delete all market data and then flash this.
Backup first.

It has a modified MarketUpdater.apk which disables updates for the market app. It worked for me on my SGSII.
personally speaking, i prefer much more the stock market included in CM roms than the new version
i do like the filters option in the new version, but it runs so slow, even on my Nexus S
so, it's not only a thing of the phone, is the Market app itself, it has become too broad

[SOLVED] WTF? Is up with the Market? Look at this...

Tried to go to my apps in the Market and keep getting this crap!!!
I get that after a fresh wipe and ROM install. I think it's a matter of Market talking to the phone and reading what apps you do and do not have currently installed.

OK well first relax. Issues like this are common when flashing custom roms. Your best bet is to do a full wipe and then reflash the rom. Also don't restore any system data at all as this can cause issues. Only user apps and data
Reboot! Always helps!

Guys I'm Trying everything!! I Reflashed a Rom and it was Working... Then All of a sudden it said Android market process Force closed, then I couldn't get to my apps again. I just reflashed for a Second time and its still Not working...
Also during the Time when i got it working, all the apps I already purchased were asking for me to buy them again! WTF?
Anyone have any other suggestions?
I thought about contacting Google, or whoever the Hell could Restore my user information!

Hi, I know this problem. When you flash a new rom and afterwards apps were installed with a backup tool (e. g. titanium bu) and not with google market directly this error can occur.
When there is one app which was removed from market the error in your screenshot is shown. In my case it was the old version of "cut the rope". To solve this problem it is necessary to remove this link to the market or deinstallation of this app.
As long as there is a mismatch in the app-market-assignment it is also possible that you get the message that apps were not bought.
It is possible to un-link apps using the "rom toolbox pro". As far as I know it is not possible with the free edition.
I would make a nan backup and try to uninstall all apps directly in the market (on your PC not on your cell phone). Afterwards it should be possible to use the market on your cellphone. When something fails you can restore your backup.
Update: when you know which app is the source for your error --> use ur backup again and uninstall just the known erroneous app.
Its a lot of work

[Q] Seeking a single-click, multiple .apk installer, without "OK" confirmation breaks

[Q] Seeking a single-click, multiple .apk installer, without "OK" confirmation breaks
Good afternoon,
Seeking the following:
An app which I can show my backed-up apks to all sitting on the SD card (after a new ROM flash for example), and to which I can then say, "Okay, install all these without asking me for any further confirmation." I don't want to sit here for the next two hours while I click OK for 150 apps to install (i.e. with Astro, Titanium Backup, or Easy Installer)
The only quasi solution to this I know of atm is Android Injector, which you operate from the PC, and transfer apks directly to your phone. I don't want that. I want to leave the PC out it completely, and find a solution from the phone side of things, utilizing the SD card, as stated.
All responses welcome and highly appreciated.
TL;DR - seeking an app that, with one click and one click only, will restore 100+ .apks without asking for confirmation between each one, which are stored on the SD card.
Thx.
To do this you need root I believe as there's no other way to bypass the install screen(as that would bypassing security and allowing a malicious app to install stuff freely)

Not that i know of. This has been the one I have always used myself and has worked without fail so never really looked.
Yeah, does a great job not just getting the apps back into place but with data as well, if desired. Great option. Takes about the same amount of time as with Android Injector (USB from PC) fwiw.
i have many apps apks on sd card location mnt/external_sd/myapps , and pro version of titanium backup. how do i get titanium to see all these apps so i can install them at once. or do i have to put them in the titanium backup folder. (they might not all fit, because titanium backup folder in on internal sd, not external)
This might help, requires ADB on a PC though. It's free. My suggestion is to use Titanium Backup Pro though, it really is a fantastic app. This is a good workaround though.

I've always used My Backup Pro, it gives you a list of all the apps in the back up so you can tick the ones you want or just select-all and it runs through them in o e operation. Does apk and data but needs root.

Titanium Headache

Titanium has been giving me problems for awhile. I haven't flashed anything for a couple months so it hasn't been a big deal, but today when I upgraded the firmware and wound up with some "issues", I really needed to be able to let Titanium do its thing and restore my stuff back like usual. No go.
I'm talking with the TB development people, but in case any of you masters out there have run across this, I thought I'd share.
After a new flash, TB doesn't access my backups. It sees them; they are all crossed out and the summary says I have none to restore. I can tap one and it opens up, but all of the boxes are grayed out. (See pic). Then, if I re-download the app from the store and install it, TB will access it and allow me to restore data only.
So in order to "restore" my apps, I have to download them one at a time from the market first. Any ideas?
I'd force close TB, move the files to a new folder, configure TB to use the new folder

Well it doesn't really wipe the whole SD card, but clears key folders. I store my backups on my external card and then also back them up to my computer. Just in case...
I had the same issue at first. Moved my backups from internal to external sd. Used dropbox to upload and sync to a folder on my account. When flashing a new ROM I just download TiBu, open it up, make sure the directory is right and then open the menu, hit the reload titanium option and after that hit the menu again and hit the refresh apps button. Works for me every time.

didn't think either of these restored app data though. That is why people use titanium.
I know I had problems with it earlier this year, but it seems to get updated every week here lately and no problems at all. I switched my backup folder to the sd card and it restores apps and data no problem.
I just flashed Venesaur, and I haven't had an issue with TiBu.
In fact, I don't think I've ever had an issue with it. Except when I didn't know how to do something.

Tips for apps- backups- latest android

4.1.2 current
4.2.2 Max
I wish to update android. Can I do this safely if I just (un)rooted my device? Whatever the terminology is. (i just did it so I have superuser etc. im a complete mobile phone noob)
What is the most easy way to make an complete backup of the entire phone?
As in apps- settings-internal firmware etc. I wish to make a complete backup.
What would be the easiest way to aquire apps?
I found 4shared and blackmart but they are not as good as the playstore, as in searching, for with this you need to know already what you are searching.
Well you can use playstore and then search in 4shared. But I was thinking maybe there is a more complete solution.
Also I noticed in some of these apps, certain apps don't seem to be present.
So what is the most complete solution to apps? Prefered if they have like short describ, popularity, pictures.
Thanks in advance.

Eh, of course you can update... The method depends on what you're going to flash.
You can use Titanium Back up. Settings of your phone will be erased.
Well, just use the Play Store.
Well first of all, the playstore, only shows up to 500 downloads, and there all scramlbed, as in the 10. mil downloads apps are scrambled inbetween the 100.000 one's etc. Meaning I miss probably alot of popular downloads. Also playstore.. you need to PAY. I want a free-complete solution with the biggest library.
Titanium backup.. backups what? I want a total backup of everything.. does that do that?
Settings erased?? -.-
Ofcourse I can update, where? flash what? I see that my phone can update itself in settings, through official means is this android update?
Sorry im a total noob. I almosted messed up rooting too.

Well the play store is the largest source of Android apps and the next I guess would be the Amazon play store, and what do you mean "you need to pay"? Of course for paid apps, you will need to pay(amazon does give out free paid apps everyday though) but you can have a free version which will contain ads for most good apps.
For total backup you will have to do a nandroid backup by going into CWM(read other threads), you can also use an app called Nandroid Backup to do it for you without the need of going into CWM for restoring the backup you will have to always go into CWM though.
Edit : OTA updates can easily be done via settings and yes it will update your android.
Other faster method is flashing the firmware through a computer.

Hello mates..
This is a developer's forum and discussing sources such as "blackmart" or "4shared" is not a good idea.
If u need an app that needs payment, pay for it..
As your payment is the only thing thr developers gets.
So I strongly suggest that you stop using blackmart or whatever source u use for cracked apk's.
Just use playstore as it is a trusted and tested source for apps.

Ok forget about the apps for free. But are there alternative's to playstore that are better? as in more then 500 per list? I think alot of popular downloads might not be on them.
Also tried updating phone just now, pressed software update, but nothing it said this device has been modified. Cannot update. What now?

I didn't discuss using any of those, I focused on Amazon app store which is completely legal and they do give out free paid apps daily(which is also legal), and for your information 4shared is not an illegal source for download it's just being misused like that, it's actually a file sharing website where you can share your photos, documents, and other personal or open source stuff.
But Blackmart is just like the name it is a black market of android apps.

I know what 4shared is..I personally had my account their but dropped it in favour of dropbox.
Now for the discussion, I didn't accused u for the disscussion.i just wanted to state the obvious that the other user used sources such as "4shared" or "blackmart" to download cracked apps.
I only wanted to have his thoughts changed mate, nothing else.
And being an iphone user too, mr know that giving paid apps free for a day is legal.
In ios, we have "appgratis" that does so..

Sorry then, I mistook your statement when it started with "mates" I thought you were including me as well, anyway all is good. cheers!!
To the OP: The Play Store is THE largest library of android applications.
Edit : Yeah we might tend to loose good apps, my suggestion... Read articles and stuff and they will point you to the interesting stuff ..
For example I am doing several amazing stuff with my phone like just now I booted up Ubuntu Desktop in my laptop using my S2, how cool is that?

Well I just download nandroid online.
It asked me which kinda of backup I wanted I choose, the first one default one, cook something.
made backup? it was 2.65 gb.. appearently it doesn't backup all since it's only 2.65gb.. so what is excluded from this?? Since I have used like 10 GB apart from this in apps.
Also how do you restore a backup? no such option in the program -.-
Is there also a way to validate a backup?
Also tried updating phone just now, pressed software update, but nothing it said this device has been modified. Cannot update. What now?

Yeah lol I understand.. I think you mean clockwork mod and there are further options too which you obviously didn't use, but let's get to you 2.6gb backup it contains your complete firmware, settings , and all the apps you have ever installed to the point, data in your internal and external memory cards should be completely copied to a computer or external hdd, ie you should manually backup that, restoration can be done via booting into CWM(for more info on CWM read other threads it will take too long to explain).

Thank you I get it now I created backup with Nandroid online app and it is 2.65 gb... and is stored under miscellaneous I cant move it to my SD-card? it's weird...
Yeah I now get that you have to use the backup with CWM which was installed with root, can you activate CWM like when booting phone before u get into android?
And well it may have saved the apps, but not the music because that alone is 4GB. so why doesnt it literally take everything?
So this is all I will ever need as in backup? And I just copy the 2.65 gb to my pc for safe keeping

Yes you can access cwm directly by switching your phone off, holding power button + home button +volume up button it will boot directly into CWM.
Backing up all the memory will possibly create a huge file and it ain't that practical but you can do it if you want, but normal backups won't touch any of your data (sdcard as well as ext sdcard) when restoring unless you manually perform a wipe.
You can copy your backup anywhere but you will have to copy it back to restore.

Ok im into CWM, I pressed backup but it doesn't backup everything in a huge file? I dont really care for practical when I got a 3 TB harddrive so it's not possible to include sd data? I also moved all apps to sd card, aswell as mp3's..
And Im trying to backup the phone through windows explorer.. but it seems I can't acces all files there? Because when I count the maps and filesizes, it seems like it doesn't add up, and something is hidden from me.
Also when I make backup it NEVER asks me where to store it, wether I do with CWM or with this other program I forgot name off. Through wifi directly on external hDD would be great.

Lol, you may not consider practical backup, but developers do, a normal nandroid backup is meant to hold all important rom data and and user apps data. Backup of Personal Data is always set to be done separately but you can do it with CWM by using a modified backup script and for restore you will have to use another modified restore script, quite a pain in the ass if I must say and too risky for a novice like you because if you mess up the script you can damage your nand thereby bricking your phone, All your data on both memory will be completely visible to you via windows especially if you are connecting via USB mode, In CWM you have the choice to backup into the sdcard or ext sdcard , it will be stored either in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup or /extsdcard/clockworkmod/backup, in the Online Nandroid backup app you can specify the download location with a manually defined directory structure.

Ok thank you. Well How come then the sizes dont addd up when I press ctrl + a on internal memory or SD card. And then compare free space/total size with the size of all the stuff I selected.. Seems some stuff is hidden 0_0
So are you saying you could also backup through windows explorer by just copying ALL stuff unto external HDD, and make a Nandroid backup would that be "complete'?

Pretty much, nandroid backup + backed up so data is usually pretty much complete.
Edit :There are some minor things, but that would only confuse you further, you don't need to worry about it though.
