[Q] Need to know - Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anybody please tell me if any Eris ROMs have HTC sense and also runs live wallpapers.

xtrSense and Evil Eris are the ones that come to mind. You can you mine if you dont mind not having live wallpapers.

I've bought a few things off the Market and if I flash a new ROM is there a way to reinstall my bought apps?

Reinstall for free...tied to your google account. Go get appbrain!!

Can you elaborate a little more about the app appbrain please. I researched it a little but just didn't completely understand it.

I don't either but once you sign in to your Google just go to the Market and push Menu->Downloads, and you will see the purchased and you can download it.

tried to update it manually, but said there was a problem parsing the object.
Search for unofficial market android and i think you will find a link to download the new market.
If someone can post a link for the new market that'd be great

Here is a link to the one I am messing with. I got it here on XDA, but couldn't find the thread again. I think it was in the Desire forums, so there might be resolution conflicts. I pushed and replaced the Vending.apk in /system/app and rebooted. The first time I launched the new market it seemed to be running fine, then it forced closed when I tried installing an app. Now it force closes as soon as I try to open the Market. I tried clearing data/cache for the market and that doesn't seem to help.

It seemed to be quite snappy until it suddenly force-closed. Once it force-closes, it will not run again until you reboot.

go to SETTINGS/APPLICATIONS/make sure the filter is set to ALL and scroll down to MARKET... click it and hit UNINSTALL UPDATES . this method worked when i received the the SIMILAR tab update,but im not sure if itll completely remove the NEW revamped market.
HIT THANKS BUTTON PLZ =) no need to install an old vending.apk

Actually can't because to the Nero system it thinks the new market is the only market so I didn't update it. Do I can't uninstall updates.
Nero beta 3 + oclf
You can uninstall updates of "market" app, but itll update it self again automatically with next start. Hopeless.. I guess google devs never thought that android users will prefer old look of their app.
Which version is considered old?
So which version is considered old and how can you find out what version someone is currently running?
On the link(s) provided earlier, there are several apk files that are simply labeled Vending.apk, so which one should you choose?

If i'm using Astro, all I gotta do is copy the apk to the system folder & install then reboot??
Application fails to install.
Anyone else seeing that?
Update: Installed now. Works. Not sure why it was not installing when I downloaded using the XDA app.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
You do not need to put the apk in the system folder you can just install it from any folder just like you are install an app from the market, no reboot necessary.

I havent tried this app yet, but Im guessing you would just reset the defaults for the program. settings>applications>manage applications>search and tap on the app>scroll down and tap on clear defaults
Has anyone noticed the little equalizer next to the song stays on as the song is playing even when I stop the song I just wonder if this is eating up anyones battery.Also if I do decide to keep this one how can I go about deleting the old one I know it's something pulling the apk from astro but where do I find it at I'm really new to all this sorry.
It foes not overwrite the stock music app so just uninstall.

Why should I have to? This is old I thought everyone knew, least I did.. hell I even posted it at one point in the Nexus section when I used Nexus Phone..

Looking for an app....

...that can restore another apps data from a nandroid. I play Mousetrap, a lot, and I swear I was about on the 9th chapter sorta thing. And then my titanium backup messed up the backup, and now I'm pissed. Because I have to start over. Lol. But when I try to restore that rom where the data was on, it goes into a bootloop, so I can't even get into it. Anybody know how to retrieve specific data from a nandroid?
Edit: Did not mean to post this in the Rezound general, meant for the Incredible forums. But oh well, still, can anybody help?

App extractor? I couldn't find it on the market. I'll look on the web for an apk though.
yeah that would be cool. I used to play Plants vs Zombies but upon switching roms and losing the save data I was all "nnnnnnoooooooooooooooo!!!!!"
and never played again.
on a side note, I see R-Type is on the Market... =O
I bought it from the market. Don't know why you can't find it. There is a free version to. I would send you the apk but I have the paid version.

if you send him the apk it should notify him of a licensing issue with his account and bring him to the page on the market to purchase it.
however, I did a search for it also and nothing came up. may have been removed from market for some reason.
Titanium Backup Pro can restore apps from a nandroid now. with CWM 5 on the Dinc

Yeah, I found a copy of an apk with a key for it also. For free. It's not like the developer is making money off it anyways, it's off the market, lol.

Really? I don't have Pro, but I'll try that here soon, because even though app extractor worked for extracting the actual apk, it didn't get the data.
so here's what was wrong...
if you search market for "app extractor", it does not come up.
if you search instead for "appextractor", then it does.
bloody market!...
