there are programs in the market it solve issue one.
as for getting the market. you can add a google account any time via settings no ned to reset. just go to account options then add the google account in.

Just bear in mind that sometimes adding the Google account after initial phone set up can cause problems - especially with the Market.

thanks guys but it doesnt let me set up an account and when i spoke to htc they said it wont??? so cant go to market!
any one else?
Maybe you could offer more detail on what happens when you try to add a Google account?
Also, I'm fairly sure there's a way to get the "first-run" wizard to run (aside from resetting) but I can't recall how to do it.
Unless your caught by one of those regions that does not have/allow google on their handsets.
(strange I know but that is politics)
hey there everyone.. I just got my O1 back from the service center (after 8 days, one more day and I would have been writing from hell! ) anyways, they changed its motherboard since I had messed it up with clockwork mod and it refused to boot up. So what I have now is a completely blank phone. My question is how do I restore all the apps that I had downloaded and installed on my "previous" O1 by using my google account? First of all, can it be done? If yes, then how?
Even if I could get some kind of a list of what apps I had downloaded, it would be really helpful!
Thanks!

isn't that apps linked into account? I mean - when you login into google's account, than you should see in market paid applications.
If you mean only list of used apps at all - its not possible. I'm using AppBrain where this possibility is. You can browse market on web and just add application into list. After that in phone select synch with appbrain and it list you all application which you checked and you can install all of them by one click.
umm.. Earlier, when I used to go to the download section of the android market on my phone, I could see all the apps that I had installed but now, even after linking with the same email id, I am getting a blank downloads page. Why is it so? Am I making any sense?

I think that it have to do with market history. But if you have some new phone... it is possible that it was cleared.
I think it maybe cleared only. Anyways, gotta download them all again!
After moving to 351 update (15609)
my apps were washed away. (thats ok, as I had too many apps installed anyway!)
Now, I have apks of all the softwares I had before, and which were useful.
Some are paid ones, of which I do not have the installer apks
For the free apps, which I installed without logging on to market, I am not able to see any update menu!
and they are not showing up in My apps (part in market) either.
-the "market" app has changed too (from what it was before.)
Help please.
Thanks,
Sony.
Another issue!
I see some notifications stick around a lot longer! (irritating!)
"Battery full Please remove charger" stays on for like 15 seconds.
Bluetooth voice dialing works well,
Wifi works with much better success rate of connecting!
MODs: Please rename thread as "Problems with 351 (15609)" or something similar.
Sony.
Note: I have already tried the Clear Cache solution.

Damn: I tried to "Uninstall Updates for Market" in applications menu.
and now, the Market looks primitive!
whats wrong here!?
By uninstalling the market updates you went back to the oldest version of the market.
I can't help you with the apps, but it sounds as if you might need to flash your phone again.
Now new thing!
Today the phone got stuck at the lock screen (long time!)
then I restarted it through Power button long press.
Then the Dell logo kept coming again and again.. and it didnt boot~!
So, I removed the battery cover, and rebooted. then it was fine! (yikes)
I am on stock, no roots, no nothing yet!
Even the default update can cause problems?(Oh, I had not rebooted the phone since 2 days.. but I have gone longer before.. without the phone getting any slower!)
One thing is definitely mentionable though,
The battery life has been exceptional!!
Full charge in the morning (6 am - unplugged)
And, decent browsing (FB + gmail) + 40-50 mins of calls + games for 30-40 mins
and by 7 pm I still have 68% battery
That has been the case for past two days (since I upgraded 318 to 351)
@Strephon Alkhalikoi
you suggest, I flash the phone again?
hmm. Ok, will try that if nothing else works.
Any other suggestions on the table?
One more thing
I had used the Dell Backup and Restore > and used system settings restore too (in the options)
Just thought of putting it, as thats the only thing thats between the flash and the current problem. << (any relation?)
Help appreciated!
Sony
Re-flashed!
WEll,
i am officially going nuts!
I flashed the 351 update again.
everything nice and sweet..
But, hey!
Market is still behaving crazy!!
and App brain or anythin is also unable to do any good!
Guys! Please help!!
The Market is not showing apps, which I install off my SD card apks!!
whats wrong!?
Bonkers,
Sony
Anybody, yet?
Hey guys,
anybody ever faced such a problem?
Anybody know any solution ( that I havent mentioned in above posts? ).
Highly appreciate the help!
Sony.
When you install apks, they won't show in the market. You'll need to use an illegitimate market to show all installed apks (search google).

I did search google extensively!
My method of installing has a name: sideloading, (right?)
and, I see, that it 'does' show in the market for other guys!
and, Google search shows this as a sync-market issue!
people have some work arounds and all, but none is sure shot way of doing that.
I am looking for a solution.
Thanks,
Sony.
Are your free apps not showing up as installed either...
If you are using pirated apps they normally won't show up as installed, much less allow you to update without paying for them through the market.
Any free apps you use, you shouldn't install them from the sd card, rather install them directly from the market....

none of the apps are showing up (free + paid)
No pirated ones. Paid ones (only 2 of them, but, even those arent showing up!!)
About installing free apps from market-
well, that is one solution. but,
my question is exactly the corollary of that!
Why are sideloaded apps not showing up, when they did just finely show up, when I was on 318 !!?
What happens when you guys 'sideload' any app?
Let me know.
Thanks!
Sony.
P.S. People are discussing it on market.google.com/discussions as a 'market-sync' issue! as stated in prev post of mine.
*Sigh!*
Since google released their web-based market interface, the definitive list of apps on your phone (as shown in the market app) comes from the list on the website, which is the list of apps that were downloaded and installed through the market.
If you sideload something, it doesn't appear on this list.
In the past, pre- the web interface to the market, the definitive list was generated by the market app by scanning your phone. Not any more.
The only way now to get the apps to appear in the market app as installed is to install them through the market app (or market website).
Best workaround I know of is to use appbrain's app market. The app in that still scans your phone for the list, and can check for updates, and then uses the standard market to install the updates, so from then on the app is listed in the standard market.
So, basically, to get the apps listed in your standard market app's list, don't sideload.
Now, I just learned of a market backup program that you could have used beforehand, but that doesn't help much now :s.

Hi,
Backstory:
I recently had my S2 serviced and lost all the apps I had installed.
For some reason, Marketplace didn't keep track of apps I downloaded, so I couldn't get some of the apps which I lost.
Problem:
There was a wallpaper app, I have been using from long time, but even after searching a lot I couldn't locate it. Thing is most of such apps have generic names and the search doesn't really help. I can't be sure whether its still hosted on the marketplace or not, been close to 6 months since I installed it for the first time.
This app has a water wave on the startup splash screen.
So silly it may sound, I am kinda restless cuz I'm not able to find it. Please help me here. Thanks and hope this doesn't get closed.
Have you tried checking your account on the market website?
I found apps that i had installed on my old HTC Hero that i had forgotten about listed under my transactions.
https:/ /market.android.com/
Dave, no it doesn't show up in my orders/transactions.
If it did, I wouldn't have open this thread.
There are two areas to the market website. One has only purchases. While the other has all apps on the other device or old device. I use that to reinstall everything on my phone after a flash.
Sent from my GT-I9100
^mate, it doesn't show in My library as well.
Found my wallpaper app, it has been removed from Marketplace.
Get it from here

Welcome to the lucky few that have bought this wonderful machine.
I bought mine in usa, and got an american market. Ok, not much fuss about that, but when I got back home to Sweden it got transformed to Swedish version. All I had to do was change the language. Not sure if this helps much.
You can find a market.apk file on the XDA forums here but it sounds like it's locating you and making Chinese the default language. Try looking into settings in the market app or the tablet in general and turning off the "use my location" features which will probably override other settings...
Same thing..
Btw... the Chinese market called "HiMarket version 2"
any Idea
Did you try and change your locale or did you try and download the apk file and install it over te old one ?
might try this "location & security - My Locaton" uncheck all three.
"Language & input" change to another language, maybe uk if you have us and vice a versa.
"date & time" selecte a different timezone
Maybe this will help.

it did not, I tried it many times ..
I think i need to download an official Android market .. but i don't know how !
Where was it used first? It may be that it just remember the first use in china and maybe removing google account from sync in settings first, then clearing data from applicaations settings. Then adding google account again and starting market on a usa wifi will fix all for you. If it still goes not help try what happens if you start a weblink to a market app from somewhere here. It should give you an option to run via browser or market-see if that could be a workaround.

Sounds like you have tried most of it.
Have you concidered trying to do a reset/factory reset? See if that helps.
Yes, I did...
Could anyone upload an apk android market for me?
Any Idea How to solve this problem ?
I'm at work so can't access the site to find the direct link for you, but back in the day when the "new" market first came out, I got it off 4shared.
I hope this helps

After installing the Market.apk I get a pop-up asking to add an account and either option just closes the Market. I tried going to the Android Market through the internet browser but whenever I try to download something it says I don't have an Android device connected to the Google account. I have also tried setting up my Google account through the email option in the tablet but it still says I have no Android device synced
How to solve this issue?
Any Idea??
Try manage applications > market >clear cache. then clear data.
then do the same for download manage, now that you have a diff market installed it might have crappy data lingering around.
---------- Post added at 04:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 AM ----------
OR if there is anything in applications such as account or accounts and sync, clear cache and data of that too!
OK so this information will probably not help you at all, but on the Milestone 2 forums, a member flashing a chinese leak gingerbread update reported that there were no google account menus, no market and had an alternate market called apps2you or something.. can't remember. Anyway, he said once he installed the market.apk it would only crash and do things like what you described. Unfortunately no-one in the thread responded about that issue.
I'm starting to think you may need to get on a different firmware...

Ok just found this article
Summary: You need root access to enable a proxy hack as a work around to access the english market
Alternative is using the Chinese market.
Hi
Hi i think i can answer your question, the answer is no, you cannot use any google service or software in your andriod system which bought in China, the reason is that because of the conflict between google and Chinese government, the Chinese government had decided to banned any google service running in China, those including google search, gmail, google map and all google service in andriod sysytem, so thats why you cannot install andriod Market in you tablet. Even you may find andriod market from somewhere, but you still cannot install it, because to install google software or service, you need rooting right to put the google service frame into the andriod system with system authority not application authority(e.g.you install a game). Thereofre before your tablet s1 root, you cannot use any google service on you tablet s1. Hope this help.
Hey, having the same problem, and pretty sure it's due to the government thing. I spoke to some helpline who said the only thing to do is live with it.
However, perfectly willing to root the thing, maybe even give it ICS update if possible?
The thing is, will the software be sufficiently similar for the same rooting technique to work? Or will it just screw up what I have left of the system?
