[Q] Unable to find ADW.Launcher in Market... - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have done the Market fix. Should I try fixing it again?
I've searched the forum and tried scanning the barcode, looking at all of Anderweb's applications, and it's nowhere to be seen!
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Edit: I can't find Launcher Pro either. I can find it in AppBrain, and when I click the Market button, it says "Not found. The requested item could not be found." What gives?

I was having the same issue, recently. If it makes you feel any better, they aren't showing up on my Xoom either, which is kind of bizarre.
I'm wondering if all the recent Market hack changes are actually being used against us, now. ie I know Launcher Pro was showing up on here 2 months back.

Try adding this to your build.prop. ADW should show up.

btw, I just tried this on TNT Lite 4.4.0 (after the Market hack) and ADW.Launcher and Launcher Pro now show up. Xoom doesn't find either of them.

After doing this and doing the market reset (clearing cache, etc.) this does work! Thanks!

[Q] Apps in the Market

I've looked all over for an answer to this, but I can't seem to come up with one. I've loaded Vegan 5.1 on my new GTablet and everything is working the way that I want it to. I've run into one problem... my tablet doesn't show all the apps in the market. The best example of this will be with "Stupid Zombies." If I search for that on my HTC Incredible, I get two results "Stupid Zombies" and "Stupid Zombies Adventurous." If I search for it on my Tablet, I only get the latter. I can search for Facebook and get "Facebook for Android" in the first three hits on my phone, but the tablet shows the list with that single app removed. Am I missing something? I've started going on a hunt for common apks that I have on my phone that I want on my Tablet, but I don't like that as the solution. Can someone assist?

Hi,
As the poster above mentioned search for "market fix" in these forums.
Actually, I thought that Vegan comes with some of the tweaks (fingerprint change) for market, but I think that the bottom line is that you'll find that (1) no one really knows what a "full market" would be (i.e., how would you know how many apps you don't see?) and (2) you probably, as far as I know, won't find one set of fixes that will allow you to see "all" of the apps in market, at the same time.
I've said it before in other threads, as far as I know, it's not 100% clear (technically) what criteria Google's market uses to determine what apps to show or not show, so without that knowledge, it's difficult to determine how to get around that.
Jim
Ah, I tried that before, but I couldn't find the google services framework. In retrospect, I think that I was trying to achieve it before logging in with my account. That got it all up and running. Thanks guys.
I've had a G tablet for a few months.... There are still certain apps that show up and pop away with the market fixes.
For instance, when I loaded my first rom, before I did the market fix, I could see WeatherBug and Wells Fargo Mobile in the market.....but hardly anything else. I loaded the two apps I just mentioned and then did the market fix. TONS of other apps showed up...ADW, Playon....all the normal stuff I'd expect to see....but No WF for WB.
I've tried 100 different ways to to them to show up, but no matter what Order I do things in....all the way from nvflash to reload and market fix, when I consider my market "fixed", just meaning that almost everything I search for is there, still no wells fargo or weatherbug.
The new Amazon app store helped with that alot. Now things that don't show up in the market, I can usually find on amazon apps.
The two programs I mentioned I've never been able to find in some of the newer ROMS...veganGB, the newest TNTs...

Exactly this. A fresh install of Vegan 5.1.1 and my purchased apps is missing a few (namely mlb11, launcher pro). If I do the market fix I am able to see mlb11 and launcher pro but a couple of apps that were listed before are gone (WII Controller IME, Gravitron live background are examples)
I am able to backup the apk's with titanium backup on my phone and install on my tablet so far when I need to.

Missing apps in market...

Hi everyone,
Since Saturday a happy Galaxy SII user, but coming from a LG Optimus 2x I notice something strange:
I miss some(?) apps in the market.
e.g. Flitsieflitsie, ikea, tubemate...
The LG finds them in the market and my desire found them as well.
I know there are market fixes around, but I am not rooted yet and have no plans yet to do it because of warranty reasons.
Ridiculous that certain apps are blocked.
Anyone noticing this too?
I bought it from the T-Mobile shop in the Netherlands, they did not put any branding on as far as I am aware.
Does the language choice influence anything?
Have you tried market-enabler http://code.google.com/p/market-enabler/downloads/detail?name=MarketEnabler.apk
Root needed for market enabler
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Same thing here, I cannot see some apps in the market (Evernote, Slice It! etc). If I try to follow some market links from the internet, the market just says that the program is not found. Also they're not found with the Market search.
I've tried clearing Market cache and data, booting, updated firmware etc.
Phone is a rooted KE7, bought from Expansys UK and I'm using it in Finland. Tried to change areas with MarketEnabler, no go, still some apps doesn't show up. There's huge amount of software showing up though, just some specific apps are missing. I just confirmed that they show up on a friends SGS2.
Any ideas how to fix this? Maybe I should try a factory reset, but I really wouldn't want to do that if it's not absolutely necessary.

Thanks jje, but that doesn't really help. The download links in appbrain point to android market, in which they cannot be found with the device. Additionally I cannot install the AppBrain-app, because it's among the apps I cannot find in market.
When clicking direct market links, market just says "The requested item could not be found."
Even if I could use the appbrain application, I'd like to fix the root problem.
Anyone got similiar issues? Or suggestions about fixing it?
Well, did a factory reset and that resolved the issue, now the market shows all apps.
As an afterthought, latest version of Titanium Backup wasn't able to restore any of my datas, just apps. I just got a error message that said "Unable to restore data" or somesuch.
Downgrading Titanium Backup to one version prior fixed this issue, and I could restore my backups.
this method works and is easier:

[Q] apps Update problem

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.

[Q] Market suddenly can't find apps - SOLVED

All of a sudden yesterday I was no longer able to load the market pages for a bunch of apps I have installed, and which had been fine the day before.
I was able to update the apps by long-pressing on the app listing under "My Apps" and selecting "Update", but if I try to open the market page for the apps I get a "NOT FOUND - The requested item could not be found." dialog. Searching for these same apps won't find them either. Some example of apps I'm seeing this issue with are:
- Kaloer Clock
- Minimalistic Text
- Dolphin Browser HD
- Twitter
- Springpad
However, some apps do come up in the market for me as normal, such as:
- GO Launcher EX
- ezPDF Reader
- SwiftKey X Beta
And those are just the apps at the top of my market page.
I'm running Market 2.2.6 (my ROM details are in my sig) and as I stated, everything was working fine until yesterday evening, and I haven't done anything that I can think would've caused this to happen. I've tried killing the market and clearing the market cache, as well as re-installing the market in xRecovery.
Does anyone have an xRecovery zip of a newer market version I can try, or have any suggestion as to what may be causing this?
+1
same here
So, after tryying to clear both the Market cache and data with no luck, I found a copy of a flashable Market 2.2.7. I installed it in xRecovery (seems to work fine, verified that it was indeed installed through system settings), cleared the cache and data (again) and yet still no luck. The exact same apps simply don't show in the market (searching won't find them, and I can't open their pages from the "My Apps" list, which does show them as installed).
I also tried using Market Enabler. Neither the settings for "[us] Verizon" nor "[ca] Rogers" fixed it either, unless I'm doing something wrong.
Go in to your market settings and make sure the maturity filter is set to 'show all apps.'
This same thing pissed me off for months, and no one had the answer. Hopefully this works for you, too.

Interesting. I'm not sure what my maturity setting was before (it seemed to be unset), but when I switched to "All", the problem persisted. When I then tried "Mature", everything is showing now.
Much thanks! It was driving me nuts.

Missing Apps in Market

Hi,
I have just installed CM7 on my nook color and noticed that 2 of my favorite apps are missing from the market, Netflix and Amazon. When I pull up the apps in AppBrainMarket and click install, nothing happens. Can anyone help me with this problem? It would be greatly appreciated.
Well go into settings>applications select Market and clear data and cache. Then reboot and try
Thank you for the quick response but that did not work. Is there anything else it could be?
You need to have a different fingerprint in your build.prop file. You can use one from another phone/device. That line is how the market determines which "protected" apps you are or are not allowed to see.
Sent from my HTC Vision using Tapatalk
Is there a better device name and manufacturer to use other than the default
"bn NookColor"?
The NookColor isn't even suppose to really have google market access.
I've had luck with either 'ro.product.model=HTC Vision' 'ro.product.manufacturer=HTC' or 'ro.product.model=Nexus S' 'ro.product.manufacturer=samsung'
Should be the only two you need. I've only ran into a couple app that don't show up in the market. But, web-install from the market's web site works like a charm.
