Stopping Data Usage. Please HELP - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have searched and searched and searched. I can't find anything for the Sony X10 that will let me stop app data for certain apps. Is there anything like droidwall or hisurfing that can give me the abilities to stop apps from using data? I'm in canada and only have a gig a month. I often get close or go over.
I'm rooted with wolfbreaks 6.1 v06

Same issue would appreciate a solution also.

Missing apps from market

Hi guys,
I have a generic UK firmware 026 for x10i.
A few days ago I reflashed my phone using SEUS as I was having a few problems with the phone.
After reinstalling i noticed there are quite a few apps I cannot find in market. They were there before flashing but now it just cannot find in search.
Is there a fix for this?
I know there is a fix for rooted phones but mine isn't rooted and also its for version 020.

Yeah but I'm baffled. I'm not rooted or manually debranded. My phone is factory sim free and I'm using stock 026 firmware why should I have this issue?

because some providers block some apps... and some apps are not available in some country...
Try to find your apps on WiFi... if it is not found... there a country lock...
With Market Fix, your X10 is open to all apps...

Sorry but your theory doesn't really make sense. I had apps available before reflashing. I had 026 before and still have now. All I did was reinstall.
But have tried you WiFi theory, that failed I'm afraid.

The market fix replace 2 system files, so root is needed to do that..
I'd debrand my French X10 on 014 to an sweeden 026 (for no serve me), some of french apps are not avalable after that...
With the Market FIx, i can found it again...
So, i tell you a solution, if you don't believe it, wait if some one have an other solution..
Same problem for me.
Hi,
Same problem here. Have a German device flashed to Generic Nordic. Live in sweden. Installed som swedish apps and it was all green (some of them I also had installed befor the flash). After quite some time I wanted to star over from scratch again (had so many bad apps I didn't use that I wanted to totally get rid of).
I used SE Updateservic and did a repair.
Still on Generic Nordic, bur now several apps can't be found for me any more, though I just had them. I thought that I should try to repair the device again, but at the same time 2.1 was just around the corner.
But now when 2.1 is delayed I maybe try to see if another repair can fix things.

Try www.appbrain.com, here in Canada I swear they block all the good apps. This was the only way I got some apps on my phone.

So from what I understand will this allow you to view market apps from other countries and see everything relesed instead of the market saying it can't find what your looking for?
Quite a few times iv been on appbrain and you click on an app, it goes to the market and it won't find what you just clicked even though its shown on appbrain.
Could someone clarify for me? Thanks in advance

How could you download directly from AppBrain? It takes you to market and it says that its not available
Right guys, all your suggestions were useless, but thanks for trying, and those who kept banging on about country restrictions- you were just talking nonsense as it was not the problem I was having, as I thought I had explained but noone seemed to grasp.
Anyway I believe I have worked out the solution to this problem myself.
Go to setting, applications, manage applications, market, uninstall updates(this will take you back to original factory version, and will reset market)
Don't worry as market will Automatically update itself a few hours later.

I just noticed that you were also the OP to the other thread I replied to. Just a word of caution, try to post everything on 1 thread. The mods may not like all these different threads.
Anyway, check out my response to your rooting issue thread.
EDIT: Forgot to answer your question on this one LOL. I would reflash your ROM.

He is using 2.1 so he can't clear the cache. He would have to use root explorer, remove vending.apk from /system/app, reboot then reinstall the market.
@shahkam I was doing some test on updating the market on 2.1 but things didn't work out. If you want to stay with 2.1 the only thing I can suggest is use erickwill's custom 2.1 which already has tweaks but it's based on the stock 2.1 rom.

Yeah anyways i go back to 2.2 and i tried his rom also and got.same market issue it is because of the new market :/

Interesting...are you having trouble browsing the web using 3g/2g???
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Being blocked maybe?!
This doesn't seem an error on your rom, this seems more likely that something is blocking your download.
Not sure if this is your case scenario but i can't download any apk and others from my university.
If you are inside some company network, or something like that this most likely is the reasons.
When the download shows on the top it means your rom is trying to download, but the server may have been blocked, so it will keep trying for a long time, also may give you some small lag during that.
If you can download apk files from other sources it means that they may have blocked only using domain filter or ip filtering.
To be able to access the market doesn't mean that the server isn't blocked, only means that the main domain isn't blocked, i don't which is the server for market downloads so i can't tell you how to check this, but the best way would be to get try multiple wifi hotspots or a home totally not firewalled connection.
If it downloads but doesnt install try unmounting your SD card and download, try again and see what happens.

Market Problem

Hello guys . I presently use trigger 3.2 rom on my vibrant, but right from when I bought the phone with stock rom 2.1 I have never spotted paid apps in the market. I also notice there are some free apps too missing from my market e.g the CNN app. I use my vibrant in Nigeria and now that the android market is open for users here to purchase paid apps its more important that I get these problem solved. I have tried the Eris market fix but still no solution . All I see on my market is 'top free' and 'just in' apps.
Please, can anyone offer some help?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
You might have already tried this, but I usually do this when I am having troubles with apps and such not showin up. Settings>Applications>Find Market>Clear data. Your market should restart.
Thanks mcmicham. But even after doing that, there is still no change. I have done it times over like you mentioned. I just can't view paid apps. All I see is 'top drew's apps. I need help!

I've actually put a topic too on this same issue. I used to use Dolphin HD and recently tried Opera. If I search for it its not there. I tried looking for Opera Full, Appbrain, and many others and they don't appear. I have used SGS Tools and tried the market fix and cleared cache, data and even had a update through my Rom that I thought would fix it and nothing. I have no clue what else to do???

Peecs121, I just Googled a lot now and found out that an app in the market can help
Its called 'market enabler'. Though its not permanent , but can fix your market to help you view both paid apps and missing ones. You can try it out. However, I am still open to whoever can help out in solving this permanently . A lot of other people here nigeria can view paid apps on their galaxy s. Why mine?

Try clearing data thru titanium backup. Then use market doctor also thru titanium backup. That usually works for me.
Trigger 3.3
Hey I figured it out!! In the market settings it was set wrong on the content filtering so I changed it to see all apps and there all back!! All the ones I have been searching for.

(Q) Market package not signed properly, not installed. Can this be solved?

Hi, Im using ericks latest 2.1 rom with Z kernal.
When trying to download Asphualt HD (5) from the android market (paid version) upon installing im getting package not signed properly. I wondered if that because of the build number and a couple of other things had been changed in the build.prop (the rom has moddifed values) causing this so I changed it to look stock (apart from the kernal one) which hasn't helped.
Some ideas would be more than welcome to get past 'package not signed properly'. I have paid for it legit from the market and want to use it.
Bump?

I've experienced the problem but I have no solution. I get that problem with Launcher Pro. Try speaking with the developer of said application. I never bothered to try this idea but it might help.
Just e-mail the developer... I don't see any solution for this
Thanks for responding, i didnt think there was a solution. I have emailed gameloft twice and im waiting for a reply for them also.

Chrome breaks music app n ram usage on LLA

Well guys this is weird. While using chrome, music app stops working and closes automatically. It doesn't happen with any other browser. I'm on indisn firmware 4.1 1 right now, non rooted. Anyone has any suggestions or facing same issue?
One more question, is the high ram usage fixed in uk version lla or it's the same??
Sent from my GT-I9300 using. xda app-developers app
Its the ram usage...the phone automatically closes other apps for freeing ram so that apps that uses huge resources like chrome can work..since music player works in the background.the low memory killer feature force closes the apps...i have personally experienced this problem when using facebook flipboard etc..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Any possible solution bro?
One question though, what's the point of having a powerful phobe such as s3 if it can't even run 2-3 apps at a time?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Try clearing recently used programs list...since recently used programs will be cached for quickly launching next time the user needs it.it will take up a lot of ram...also try using advanced system care from play store...this app proved useful to me and many others..if it still doesn't work..try to uninstall least used apps..since some services will run in the background and eats up ram..and still not working means..keep the post alive and we can expect someone will come up with a solution
Hope this helps..

Yup waiting for some more replies. The above i already tried, no effect.
I guess i have to root n install another rom.

Well i've successfully rooted mu device and i hope there can be more ways now to make it lagfree. So can anyone please suggest any ways now? I don't wanna install any custom kernel or recovery. Just wanna tweak the stock ROM for good performance and multi-tasking.
