[Q]Old Vendor Apk? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I Updated to .83..and i noticed that the Vendor app ( Market) is back to its old school form...anyone knows why?

Clear data and cache from settings/ manage apps/ manage apps/ all/ market
Then reboot, relaunch market, accept user agreement and it should be the newest version of market. If not, click menu, my apps, then home and wait for a few minutes

Install apps later?

Hello.
I've been buying a couple of apps that I do not want to download right away, but the download starts automatically. So I wait for them to install, when it is finished I can't uninstall them because of the refund button. I uninstalled one of them through "Manage applications" and still got a refund. Which I did not want.
It's been about 40 minutes since I bought them but the refund button is still there.
Could anyone help me with this. Thank you in advance!
If it has been more than 15 minutes and the refund button still shows, then go to manage applications. Find Market and clear data. That should also clear cache, but if you still have the option to clear cache do that as well.
Reboot if you want, but it shouldn't be necessary. When you go back to the Market they shouldn't allow you to refund anymore. If they do then you can either wait it out or freeze them with TB - you have to have the pro version of Titanium Backup to freeze apps. Be sure that in the settings for TB that freezing an app doesn't remove its market entry... I can't remember the exact wording of the option but it's in there.

<Q> Download completed notification always reappears even after clearing

no idea why this happens. when i download something or update an app the completed notification randomly keeps reappearing even after clearing. i clear the notification and then 15 minutes or so later it reappears. keeps happening for days on end. the only way to stop the notifications is to go and clear app data.
this is inconvenient and stupid. why are these notifications reappearing after being cleared?
anyone else have this problem or have any idea how to fix it?
anyone Bueller ?
Is this with Android market aka Google play? Or amazon appstore? Either way try to go into settings and clear the application data and then do a reboot. Let us know if this solves it.

android market.
as i said the only way to clear it is to go in and clear app data. when i hit the x it clears but then just reappears again in a few hours. the only way to truly clear without reappearing is to clear app data which is unlike every other android device i've had

[Q] How can I disable updates for specific apps in the market?

It used to be the market would separate apps that were approved for auto update from those that had disabled auto update set. One could then simply hit the Update All (for the group) button and it would update ONLY the apps that were auto update enabled. Over the past few months Play Store has changed their behavior in that it no longer separates the apps and will only enable auto updates for everything or nothing.
How can I hide or otherwise prevent these few apps that I do not want to update from being in the play store update list? As it is now, I have to selectively update each individual app from the list, skipping the few apps I do not want updated.
Thanks,
Currently on a Samsung GS3, rooted, stock.

did you ever find a solution to this ?
Actually yes,... I think. I'd suggest making backups of your apps (TitaniumBU or other).
Open Play Store
Menu: Settings
Enable Auto Updates (Mine is set to when on WIFI only)
Go back to main Play store page.
Menu: My Apps
Under Installed, locate any app that you wish to change and select it, this opens the App Details page.
Menu: Auto-update untick the checkbox.
Still trying to confirm this condition: Seems that if you manually update an app that is not set to auto-update, it will possibly reset the auto-update flag to 'Enabled'

Hi!
Sorry to bump this old thread, but I am kind of fighting with a similar issue, my problem is,
the apps I don't want to auto update are google apps(Keep/Youtube/Gtalk), which are replaced
by black counterparts from Team Blackout(with exception of Gtalk, I just don't like Hangouts)
and of course there is no "disable auto update" option with google system apps.
As of this date, I can see no valid option for selectively update the installed app catalogue, this
might be a decision from Google's part to push out the obsolete apps by force, which is understandable,
but I think there should be an option to have this feature.
Now at this point I am updating the apps manually app by app, and of course
with about 200 plus apps installed a complete PITA.
Thanks for any answers at this point, and this is my first post here btw, please be kind.

I found this thread looking for a way to selectively disable auto-update. I found that by going to the Play Store on my phone (under settings, I already had auto update on wifi only enabled), selecting apps/my apps, then choosing a specific app, then touching the soft menu key brings up a checkbox for auto -update. Uncheck to disable auto-update. This works for Google apps too like Hangouts, GMail (2 apps that I checked), etc.

Up until a day or two ago, I found the same thing - I could hit the soft menu button in the Play Store, and there would be an option to check or uncheck Auto-Update for that specific App. But I just checked again, wanting to take advantage of that, and it didn't come up any more.
Can anybody confirm that this functionality is gone again?
I'm on Verizon, with a Stock 4.2.2 Galaxy Note 3, non-rooted.
Thanks.
ETA: I rebooted my phone, and the ability to check/uncheck auto-update with the soft menu is back. Strange, but at least it's there again.
Disable updates for specific app - COMPLETLY
Hello,
I found this thread - title says it all.
I have Google Maps 7.5.0 installed, therefore it's listed in "Updates" all the time.
I do not have automatic updates activated, but i like to use the "update all" button in the play store.
Is there a way to disable the listing of Google Maps in "Updates"?
Thanks!

I don't think you can disable that display in Google Play. It knows what apps you have and will let you know when there is an update for them, whether you want to know or not! The main thing is that you can generally decide whether you want the update or not. I prefer it that way. It gives me a choice.

Yes, I like that it's reminding me of updates.
But the new version of the app is not working for me and if I hit the updated-all button on accident, I have to reverse the app again. Happens too often. Would be awesome to have a checkbox á la "Don't display updates for this app"

Yep. I've learned to be selective in my updates.

Titanium backup will help us. The option name is : "dettach/attach app from market" . This option do what it says. So no update offer from play store after.

Yes, it did the trick for a while - and the app (Facebook app - the old version which did not have the annoying bugs) I detached from the market vanished from the available updates list. But the very next morning it was back in the same list :crying::crying:
That's right, it only works for a couple of hours. Haven't found another solution

thank you for reminding me of this feature. Much appreciated! :fingers-crossed::good:
Titanium backup only seems to work for a few hours or until the app is run again before showing up in the play store again.
Are there any other methods besides APKtool to resign?

I think I have found the simple answer:
1. In Google Play Store settings enable all applications to update automatically on wi-fi.
2. Next, individually click each of the apps you do not want to update automatically. On each app's update page, there is a menu button on the top right corner. Click it and deselect auto update for that app.
Now all these disabled apps will not auto update along with the other generally permitted apps.
Cheers.

Google Play Store - Background data disabled? - OOS 3.1.3

On OOS 3.1.3 there has been some initial speculation about getting google play services to work correctly, but many have figured out how to work around this by just clearing data etc.
However, I believe I've found a bug when downloading apps which are deemed as "Large Apps", which prompts the box saying whether you would like to download over Wifi or not.
During the download, it will freeze, and if you wait long enough, a box will pop up stating that you have background data restricted for google play and it needs it to function.
For me, on smaller apps when downloading them this does not occur.
In the screenshot attached you can see I was trying to download an app, when it got to around 90% or so, this popped up.
In my data usage -> 3 dot menu -> restrict background data are both set to off on Mobile Data and Wifi. Likewise, google play store under data usage has no restrictions either.
I have made sure that sync is all configured correctly, cleared play store/services data and cache, and the whole cache in recovery but with no result.
Can anyone else relate to this? I'm unsure how to fix it/find a (temporary) work around

App data isn't clearing

guys you know that,
There are many apps. After using this or change seeting. You will not go back it's fresh version. Cause If you clear data or uninstall or install. You will not get new app.
Shortly say you can not clear it's data properly.
So, is there any way to full fill clear those Types of apps???
