[Q] Titanium Backup Market Links Problem - HTC EVO 3D

Hi, sort of an odd request.
I usually use Titanium Backup on flashing new roms to restore what I have previously purchased. Recently I got two free apps of the day from Amazon, and downloaded one (Drisk) which I want to purchase now.
Problem is I restored on flashing a new rom, and tried the link to market on these apps. I have detached it in Titanium Backup and uninstalled the app, but the problem is now even on the web browser, these apps are incorrectly showing as purchased, so I cannot buy them which is what I want to do.
I have cleared all market data, detached in TB, uninstalled, and it still thinks I bought them, but on install it states declined.
How can I undo/fix this so I can buy these apps through the official market?

Update, in the event others have this issue. I had to detach from market in TB, uninstall, then clear data/cache for the Market app. It seems after waiting they gradually correct the status in the market. I have been able to buy 2 of the 3 apps now, just waiting for the last one to show as non-purchased again.

How do you "detach" in TiBU?

Hello! I am so unbelievably desparate I'm almost ashamed of myself hahaha did this method work for you? I "obtained" an emulator and then the market believed I had purchased it and now am unable to buy it so I can own the amazing app....so disappointing. Contaced Google and the developer--only Google answered and with the generic "We are aware of this problem and are currently working on it." I'm curious...once I detach from market through TB, how long must I wait until the option changes from "purchase" to buy?"

[Q] Market not showing all apps???

Why do some apps not show up in the Android market on the Archos 101? For example, I use an app called My Backup Pro...it doesn't show up. I searched for Lookout Mobile...it doesn't show...neither does Norton Mobile Security. I searched around but didn't find an answer to this. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
caseym
not all apps will show up... from my understanding, protected apps do not appear. i myself have been looking for a few, and had to resort to side loading them.

I found the solution on another forum:
1- Clear the android market cache
2- Force to stop the google framework service
3- clear the cache of the google framework service
4- Reboot your tablet
This solved similar issue for me
I hope it can help you

Paid Apps Outside US?
I installed v5-final and have done the market fix several times but I only get free apps - NO paid ones. The catch is that I am located in Costa Rica - could someone comfirm that paid apps are only available in North America/Europe. If ALL (free and paid) apps are available everywhere then I have to figure out my problem, if not, I will just buy apps like crazy when I am back in the states (unless someone knows a work-around). Thanks.
I just tried the same thing and now my market app doesn't work. Any suggestions. Thanks
Just fixed it

Titanium backup in use?
i need to ask everyone with this issue, is everyone having this issue using titanium backup, and only seems to have problems after pulling from titanium's backup?
ill give my reasoning for this question...if you are having an issue, with certain apps just vanishing from the market on your phone.... even if you know its installed....
have a look at the list of questionable apps in TB, is there a yellow ball, with NO "M" overlaying it.... this may be the issue... you may have to delete all backup s for said app that DO NOT have a "M" ...wipe that apps data (in TB) and trying to restore from a backup that DOES have the "M"
please check this out, and let me know if i figured this out right... i have spent way too long pulling my hair out over this...and it seems like this was a fix for me...so far... ill edit in a few days if it all holds out
additional, if you are getting an "app incompatible" in the market... and have changed your LCD density , you will have to change it back to its default (240 for the DX) the new market seems to check for that.. and must label the device as unusable with the app, even if you KNOW its working just fine... i hope the market gets fixed to tolerate this...but im sure its part of the NEW market compatibility check
Hi Migamix,
If you have backups that don't contain a Market link, no need to delete them because they won't interfere - as long as you restore the one that has the link, of course.
When batch restoring it's a bit different, the latest backup for the chosen platform is picked, so you have to ensure that that one has a Market link.
But in any case, if you have the PRO version you can long-click and force attach it to to Market afterwards.

the force to market did not work for me, at all...many times, many tries.. some days im on a rom flashing fest...and some of those times ive done a batch restore and had only 20 apps in my market list.. its odd but it seems the only time it worked for me was after having the market attached "M" notification on all the files i wanted...i looked at this issue after letting the market auto restore post rom install, and manually pushed a few more that were causing problems...but i saw how 80% of the apps i restored (data only) refused to keep a link to the market... poked around.... uninstalled a problem app... noticed one of my older backups had an "M" while the rest didn't...so, i used that backup, and moments later that app was available in the market, and had an update... so i went and did it with a few more.... all those apps i managed to get installed in this fashion...still after 3 days, have not dropped their market links...where as...sometimes after a force market linking...would only last an hour if at all
i wanted to post this because i saw how many others were having the exact issue...i wanted to see if there is something in the way TB communicates with the data of the market ...causing market link confusion...
it seems like there needs to be a little more work with the market tools in TB....
ps, there also a setting i messed with that changed the way TB was getting market links... i think it was turning off accurate market check...
hopefully this post doesn't require too much re-reading....im a bit of a bad multitask'r sometimes

[Q] Can't detach app from market, nothing works

I restored some apps after installing tasks latest rom, by the way this has NOTHING to do with his rom. Anyway a few apps have been attached to the market that I bought from other sites. I cannot remove them, I have tried everything, uninstalling them and the market, re installing the apps then the market, using tb to install backup apps without data and then the market without data, clearing all caches for apps and market, and whole cache with cwr. If i use tb to detach app from market, then open the market and press my apps they are gone, but as soon as the list refreshes they are back :-(. This isn't a major problem, just very annoying.
Any help would be great
Also on my stock rom i have the same problem, the apps must be locked in to my market account or somthing
Over 80 views and no reply.....lol
Over 150 now lol :-O has nobody got any ideas?
I'm bumping this cause I'm having the same issue. I got apparatus from Amazon months ago, but it no longer receives updates. Since it's one of the 10 cent apps today I've tried installing it from the market. I'm seeing a same issue as the OP. I've uninstalled, detached from the market etc.. but when I go into the Android market it's still marked purchased. Any ideas?
I have the same issue...it seems you have to be on the ROM that the app was initially linked to the market. I have gotten a few apps to detach, but only the ones that I installed on my current ROM.
I tried going back to previous ROMs for the other apps but it wouldn't work.
Really dumb...the only actual solution is to make another account for purchasing apps.
It happened to me all on the same rom, still can not detach them on any rom. It is more the annoying now as all the apps coming on for 0.10, I can't buy them cos if I uninstall them they still show as purchased but can't download them cos the market finds no license. Getting annoying now. My phone doesen't show them as purchased as I use the same account on phone and tab, my phone just shows the apps I actually purchased on the market.
This app has this feature:

It's also made by a fellow Greek, so you're supporting our economy by buying it

Lol if you had read my op you wouldn't have wasted time posting that link.
As I said, tb does not work. And all these months later I still have the problem. Never found a solution. Just gave up and learned to live with it. Unfortunely the only way of updating them apps is downloading pirated copies, I don't care if that is wrong cos I payed for the apps and games so am entitled to the updates lol

Amazon apps show as purchased on Android Market.

All of my purchased apps from the Amazon app store are showing as purchased on the Android app store. If I delete an app from Amazon and want to purchase from Android I can not. It still shows as purchased. When I click to download it says that I have not purchased this app. How can I fix this?
Clear you Market data under Manage Apps, it might help.
That doesn't work, I have already tried that.
I have been looking for the same solution with no success.
Have you tried reinstalling from the Appstore and using Titanium Backup to detach from the Market?
You should then be able to purchase it.
I think these issues have something to do with the Google backup thing. It backs up your apps list and even if you uninstall it it still shows sometimes. I don't use the backup feature for this reason, it's buggy & I prefer to restore them myself anyway.

I installed an old version of the Market (2.2.11) I had and now my Amazon apps don't show up as purchased. I was able to buy one that I had previously got from Amazon.
This is a known issue and is being worked on by Google. Has to do with the devs using the same signing key for both markets.
What's wrong with buying them from Amazon again (untill it is fixed)?

It is not an issue with the android market, it is a "cross market" issue.
Bumping for help. Google'd this issue and found this thread.
I'm having the same issue on my Galaxy Nexus. I got mSecure from the Amazon app store as a FAOTD a long time ago and want to purchase it in the Android market now since it's for sale for 50 cents and the app is like 8 versions newer (seems Amazon apps don't get updated near as often or fast as the native market). But it's showing purchased on every device I try it on. I've uninstalled both mSecure and the Market app (through Titanium) from my phone and re-installed, which seems to have prompted my phone to update to the new "Google Play Store" that just launched today, but had not affect on mSecure's status. I've also tried to purchase it from my browser on the phone and my PC. Shows purchased every time.
Very annoying and I don't want to miss this sale! Any workarounds found yet?
Thanks!
Edit: I may have found a fix. I just contacted Google Support and got a hold of a very knowledgeable and helpful rep who had to forward my case to an account specialist to square me away. I got an e-mail chain from him to the specialist so I can reply back any issues I have as they work on it. He said he's seen this before and they have to update an "order code" or something to that affect so I can order it. I'll update if/when they fix it.
I found this on another thread. Please thank to OP, he really helped me out.

[Q] Applications and games owned by this account will appear here

What is this error and how do I fix it?
Logging into my freshly hard-reset device via Market I get a white box that states:
"Applications and games owned by this account will appear here"
I THOUGHT I solved it myself by following my own advice:
Clear data and cache.
Didn't work the first time and it seems to be randomly recurring,.... and now it's always happening, which leads me to believe it is a GOOGLE issue.
Just in case anyone else has this issue.
Anyone have any ideas?
I restored from a previously functional backup and still no dice.
It's happening to me, also. Calk's 2.0 on a Sprint S2 E4GT.
Cleared Market cache and data, no dice. Tried switching Market back-and-forth to another Google account, no dice.
Happily, I can still get updates via AppBrain.
I have a theory that it was due to something that I extracted from my CWM backup via Titanium Backup.
Did you by any chance do something similar?
I don't think my theory is in any way accurate. Something seems to be going on with the Google server end. I wish they'd fix it.
find a solution (maybe someone find one BETTER)
i have tried anything to solve this problem but no dice. now i have installed KL1 (wipe version ) and the market works perfectly
i also have heard about many problem with market on KK5..
Interestingly enough, My Apps worked correctly ... once ... after I flashed Calk's 2.0.1a over 2.0.
Still using AppBrain to sync updates.
On evo3d, this seems to be a widespread problem across many phones even on stock software. I've been experiencing for a couple months now. Do you have any sideloaded apps, bootleg or amazon or mikandi? My theory is that the 3rd party apps are interfering with the market. I have amazon apps that show in google market as purchased. I uninstalled everything and reloaded with my titanium backup, marked as sideloaded, worked for about a week then the market started reassoiciating itself with my 3rd party apps and broke again. appbrain doesnt pick up all updates either, I've been waiting for about a week for it to pick up the beautiful widgets update and hasnt so far. this sucks.
try this solution. download and install appbrain. sync your google account with appbrain and then click "sync" on apprain. when sync is finished, open market and now it works . please check this

no no no this damn problem is back. I think it was a problem kk5. I have check rom revo v4
he he, anyone that experieced this problem has blackmart alpha installed
follow this solution:
uninstall blackmart alpha. go to manage application, market>force stop it>clear cache>clear data
go to market accept user agreement
now it will work. please tell me
I have same problem before restore my apps with titanium on XWKK5; so, I think it was an error for use market doctor with system apps, then I clear all market links with Titanium and works, market came back lo list my apps but before install some apps I have the problem again and delete market link doesn't work; when I restore XWKK2 nandroid, market works fine and I never install balckmarket or similars, I've wrote to google support but only says clar cache and data from market, but doesn't work and never responding me ...
PD: Sorry for my english, I'm from latinoamerica
This is definitely a problem which surfaces with KK5.
Upon upgrade to KL1, the problem vanishes. Flashing back to KK5, even factory reset, brings it back.
I've seen my stuff in My Apps just once in several weeks...immediately after flashing Caulk's 2.5 full. Worked correctly once, then everything dissapeared again.

Same here. Flashed Calk's 2.5 full, market worked fine first time I selected "My Apps". Second time I tried, I would get one of the following:
- "Apps and games owned by this account will appear here."
- "Applications and games owned by this account will appear here."
I'm attaching a screenshot. (BTW, tried reflashing the ROM, did not solve the problem.)
EDIT: Posted the issue in the ET4G Q&A section as well
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20504910
I've been running KK2 (Australian) version for around a week and all has been well until today when I've got the same error message.
Had it previously on other versions of KK2 and KK5 but now it's back.
Haven't done anything today to cause it...come on Google, sort it out

I have figured out how to fix this with titanium backup. Basically, you use the remove all market links option then attach each app back with titanium one by one. Pay attention to what apps you add back, excluding any from Amazon app store. Reboot and wait. After about a half a day things will be back to normal

I think it's only available to pro versions. It's actually labeled "Destroy all Market links" in the "market tools" menu item.

[Q] Apps showing as purchased even though I didn't buy them

Ok so this is a pretty strange issue. On my Galaxy SIII, I just upgraded to 4.4. I have 3 Google accounts with paid apps, but am trying to consolidate that down to one, so I don't have to sign in to all of them to get my apps, and I often get 403 errors when updating. I know the apps don't transfer, and I will have to repurchase them with this primary account. I am fine with that. However, Google Play doesn't seem to like that idea.
I did a clean flash, and signed into only this primary account. However, the Play Store is somehow saying that the apps I've purchased with my other accounts are purchased with this primary account. But when I try to install them I get a stupid 403 error. Even stranger, I installed Titanium Backup, and it's magically saying I'm using the Pro version (I purchased the key with one of the other accounts, have not installed it).
When I look in my browser at the apps I purchased with accounts other than my primary, it says they are already installed, even though they are not. I've tried everything I know. Does anybody have a clue why this might be happening or a solution?
Titanium Backup has a feature called Market Doctor which scans for all your Play Store links, and you can use it to break them too. That'd be the first thing I would try, because it's easy and I'm lazy. lol
Thanks. I was able to install using TiBu, use the 'Detach from Market' option, and uninstall to get it working.
New, unrelated question. I'm trying to restore my SMS messages using TiBu, but it is continuously asking if I want to use TiBu instead of Hangouts as my SMS app. I have clicked No about 50 times so far but it keeps coming up. Any way around this?

Nope, you gotta do that on 4.4. Once it is done restoring it'll ask you if you want to switch back. This is normal behavior.

First off, I'm glad someone else had this problem, because I was about to post an almost identical thread.
I have an additional problem though...there are a few apps I would like to repurchase on my primary account for which I no longer have TiBu files. Any ideas for how I could get those back?

Hmm. Depending on what kind of app it is, you might be able to "find" them, install, use TiBu to break the link and uninstall so you can install them officially. Other than that, not really sure.
