Market acting strange - no apps under "My apps" - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A have attached a picture.
Tried installing an older version, but I get server errors. Tried cleaning cache, breaking market links, nothing works! I have removed my email from the picture.
Please help!

You could try upgrading to the latest android market, or downgrade to another older version of the android market. Also have you tried clearing the data of the android market in setting>apps>manage apps>all>market.
If I have helped, please feel free to press the thanks button below

Are you on a custom ROM?
I had exactly the same problem using CheckROM (think I had 3 versions).
Tried all of danielsf's suggestions, nothing worked for me. All good now I've changed to krinyo's SlimROM, that uses Market 3.4.4.

I have the same problem but have found a temporary fix by using Titanium Backup (although you need to be rooted).
You need to 'destroy all market links' and then re-link them through the market doctor in titanium backup while on-line.
Restart the phone and they should show up a few hours later.
I say temporary fix as i find the same thing happens again as in your screen shot for no apparent reason!!!
Hope this helps and works for you

This one happened to me with KK5 firmware. I got my apps back after I upgraded to KL1.

[Q] App stuck 'installing' in Market

Hello,
Got the 'apps stuck on installing' problem with the Market on new 2.1 firmware. I've read in other posts that it's possible to fix this by clearing the Market cache and data. However, on the X10 it's only possible to clear the Market cache and this doesn't seem to fix it.
Anyone found another way to fix (because I stupidly uninstalled the 'stuck' apps from the Apps Management settings menu and now I can't reinstall them )?
Generally enjoying 2.1, though (Angry Birds! )
Thanks!
I had this happen last week with a number of apps (all stuck at "Installing") at once. There was no option to cancel, and rebooting didn't help. Eventually, I just re-flashed my firmware (and added JIT to boot).
Knock on wood... so far so good.
errase all data of google, restart. click on market put ur data , must be fix it. thats wut i did

I tried deleting the Google account from within 'Settings->Accounts & Sync' but the X10 told me that other apps were using this account and the only way to remove it was to factory reset the phone. How did you erase all your Google data?

I was really hoping not to have to do that - it's taken a while to get the X10 running something like I want it after the 2.1 update
Download the apk from somewhere else of the thing you installed thats stuck and install it. That restarted the one I accidentally uninstalled while updating it
In my case fixed with reflashing, nothing else was helpful

Have you rooted your X10? If so, make sure ou install and use Titanium Backup. If you keep your backups up-to-date, re-flashing is a minor inconvenience as you can restore (almost) everything to the way it was.
No, I've not rooted it. Generally I just use the phone and apps and don't try to do anything too techy with it. Is it still worth rooting (apart from to use Titanium Backup?)

[Q] Help with Market/Contacts(BAMF 1.7)

Hey guys,
Starting today I have been having a problem with the Market and it saying it doesn't have enough memory to install something. For example the Flash update released today. I try to update and it fails saying it doesn't have enough memory. If I look at free space I have like 2gb free on the phone. I can still download other applications bigger than the update, but it isn't letting me update. I have tried clearing market cache etc. I had the same problem when Fring released an update the day before yesterday. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still couldn't/cant get it to even reinstall. Is their anything you guys might recommend?
Also I have been having a problem with the contacts application. I click on a contact and it says contact not found, or something to that effect. It is like it looses all my contacts and a little bit later they work fine(usually after a restart).
Just seems like I am having lots of problems at the moment. Is their any suggestions for an easy fix? Can I just reflash rom only, and if I were to do that would I loose all my applications etc?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks,
Blaine

1. MARKET.....try clearing data/cache in menu/settings/apps/manage apps/all/market then reboot and open Market.....should help
2. The contacts issue is pretty strange...do you sync using Google or a Backup Assistant?
Yes you can reboot recovery, wipe cache and in advanced wipe dalvik cache and reflash the ROM your on...it will rewrite system/ and your apps/data will be left as is
ALSO, try a different ROM....I have personally run all teh Froyo ROMs and currently run BAMF Stripped v1.7 with no issues at all.....

[Q] About the ROM --> ICS REMIX V 7.4 (market issues)

I think this ROM is great! I only had one fc after i flashed it, when trying to get my contacts sorted.. After that, its all smooth! although i found one issue with the market: why it took me ages to load and forever to download an 3,5MB app?? i deactivated fast dormacy and used set DNS to set it to open DNS, but it didnt help.. can anyone please provide me with any help?? Thanks before
Note: The market is working both via wifi or data package. My problem here is when i use data package.

Did you do a full wipe on v7.4?

actually i did full wipe before flashing because i came from a gingerbread based ROM. Well, the market is working really.. It's just slow you know, very very slow if i might add. I dont have any problem with browsing, uploading, downloading songs, streaming or anything else that use data package.. It's just the market that has a problem..

Accidentally deleted too many system apps

Hello, Thanks for all your help so far in rooting my Padfone X Mini. It's been incredibly useful in removing extra bloat and speeding up my device. Unfortunately I went just too far and deleted an app that I needed. I'm wondering if anyone can supply me with a copy of the APK for the ASUS Splendid app. It looks like the version I was using was 1.1.0.140618. I've tried some of the other downloads I've found of newer versions and they just crash every time I try to do anything. I rather liked the reading mode, but just wasn't paying attention when I got uninstall trigger happy.
Thanks in advance!

Click on the Dropbox link.
Thanks!
Tried installing it. Even copied it to /system/apps and installed from there. No matter what I do, it always crashes when I try to enable reading mode via the drop down quick settings.

You may just be best off using one of the ROM backups and starting over. I've learned to freeze an app first with titanium and then delete if no problems arise.
Well, I ended up just wiping it, installing a fresh factory ROM (since the stripped version had it missing as well) and re-removing the system app bloatware. I did it a little more carefully this time, using TB to freeze them first to check for problems. This time I'm good to go. Several apps already installed and more than a GB left. Finally this phone is usable.

facebook app won t install

I have flashed the Candy5 rom a few times, but I am not able to get the facebook app to install. I have tried serveral Gapps. Is this a common thing or is there something I can do to fix this?
I posted in the Candy5 rom thread a few times, but I am unable to post there again because I have less than 10 posts?
I understand the work around to this problem could be, do without the facebook app and just login using a web browser. I just want to know if this is a common problem among flashing new/custom roms?
Seems like I was finally able to get the facebook app to install. It hung up on install but I just waited and waited and it finally successfully installed this time. We shall see if it fails to update/install in the future.
Well It won't let me move it to the sd card, and now I am stuck trying to re-install it again. Anyone else have this problem?

Have you tried converting it to a user app using titanium backup? Not sure if this would help. These new roms are just beginning to become stable though so expect some bugs in the lollipops until the devs have a chance to perfect them. Is there a particular reason you need to have it on sd card?

I am not sure about converting to a user app with titanium backup. I would like to move it to the sd card to save some space, but when apps get moved there, they seem to disappear sometimes and they don't like to update. The facebook app is the worst. It doesn't want to install and if you get it installed it doesn't want to update. Thanks for your reply.
I have not had any issues installing Facebook so in bit sure what to say. Is your device telling you that's it's out of space?

No, it just takes a long time downloading and then it says it is installing, but it doesn't install. I think a couple of times it might have said error 904, but I am not certain.
I do have it installed after many attempts, but it says it needs updated, and it goes back to the downloading & installing, but failing. Some of my other apps seem to disappear from my home screen and I have to drag them back out again and some apps disappeared and I had to reinstall them.
I did a fresh flash, wiped dalvik cache/cache/system/ before I flashed the v3.6 with the 09/09/15 gapps. Should I restore it to an earlier backup and update/flash through the Candy OTA instead?
I could try uninstalling the facebook app and try to reinstall it, but I am worried that might not work because this has happened to me on earlier roms too. Also crashes when I open a website link or youtube video in the facebook app.
I uninstalled the Facebook app then reinstalled it, but it appeared to hang up on install again. I shut down my device and waited for a minute or two and then turned it back on. While booting, it said Candy5 is optimizing Facebook app. Now the google play store shows the app is up to date.
I then tried opening a YouTube link from Facebook and it crashed to the home screen. Sometimes it shows the Samsung loading screen briefly, only with the Facebook app. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure which gapps you're using but maybe try another version. Make sure they are small or Pico gapps 5.1 version. Not the old 5.0
I am using the mini gapps from the op link.
Should I wipe internal & external SD cards also and flash again? When I wipe in twrp, I go to advanced wipe, dalvik cache/cache/system/data. I usually repeat that a few times before flashing the ROM.
I think my problem was due to file conflicts. I also had my original jellybean installed in twrp recovery backups and maybe the two different versions caused a conflict? I wiped everything and am now able to install facebook and move it to my sd card.
This is what I was worried about. It happened again during an update. Do I need to keep flashing gapps updates?
I just updated gapps to the 09/17/15 version and got this error now. I know I have plenty of space.
I was able to get the Facebook app installed again. I had to uninstall some apps and music to make space, which doesn't make sense because my 29 GB SD card was not even close to being full.
I am on Candy 9-08 build. I can install Facebook but can't update or move it to SD card. So if there is a new version, I have to uninstall and reinstall from the playstore. This usually takes a while and requires a reboot.
It probably something to do with the Facebook app. It used to work fine but stopped working a few months ago for me. I was on the 3-16 build of Candy for a while.

What I have to do to get installed is going to play store, initiate the download and install. When it's sat there for a little bit, reboot the phone.
