Sometimes my dad grounds me from using some of my chat apps that i use to talk to all of my friends. He always checks the Google Play Store on my phone and looks under My Apps and then All so he can see if i've downloaded one of them. If i download it from the play store it will show up here, even if i've already deleted it. I used to be able to get around this by downloading the .apk file for the app from another website, and not from the play store. That way it wouldn't show up in the My Apps section. But the other day i did this and the app still showed up in the My Apps part of the play store, even though i didn't download it from there.
Does anyone know why this happened, and if there is another way to download an app so it doesn't show up after i delete it? Thanks everyone!

Yes that is because the market link is intact. You can use an app like titanium backup to remove market links easily so that they wouldn't show up on the play store app list.

Thanks for the response, thedisturbedone. I read somewhere that the new play store won't let you break links using titanium backup. Do you know if this is true? If not, can you please link me a page on how to do that? I really appreciate it.
Hello all
I doubt if this thread exits already cause i tried to search and cannot find there (if yes please post here if possible).
The question is why doesnt show 3 apps official like google play TV, music and books?? Maybe cause we use root for this? sound a bit stupid for me...
When i check site its show me not compatible my device.
But by checking here https://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1727131
its seems support already on SHG-I777 so what wrong? (maybe cause we use CM7 and is not original?)

If you are using CM7 then you need to download GAPPS for CM7 from http://goo.im/gapps/ You will need a Gingerbread version and flash in recovery.
Also, somebody correct me if I am wrong here, I believe Google Play (formerly Google Market) now consolidates music and books as well as apps. There is a separate Google Music app also available in the Google Play Store.

Yes it does but there are also separate apps. You just buy them in the play store the use the app in the separate app.
I have a Verizon Galaxy Nexus, rooted and running AOKP build 38. There are several key apps that show as "not compatible with my device" in the Google Play Store. What causes this? I've been running these apps forever and all different roms. Apps like HD Widgets and Adobe Flash Player are a couple that are doing this. Is there a way to fix this or is it a per-ROM problem?
Thanks so much,
caseym
Sorry you cant
Google Play sorted all the apps so it will work on you mobile:
they will look for:
-if the resolution right
-does you phone have the hadware for it?
like: does it have an gps for an gps app?
yes?-> the app will show up in the google play store!
no? -> the app wont run or is useless and then it wont show up in the playstore!
-can you phone run the app with your hardware? if your phone is too slow and you want to run an advanced 3D game it wont work and wont show up!
if you really think your andriod phone can run it look on google to find the app and install it with an file explorer like: es file explorer.
i dont know if it works for you but it mostly worked for me with some apps that were to big for the screenresolution of my htc wildfire.
it may can the app up0dated and removed the compatibility with your phone. and yes mostly it is rom fault

Similar problem
I have a similar problem...
When I used the official ROM, I was able to use some apps that appear unavailable for my device. Now I'm using ICS official (SGS2).

Did You tried XPOSED module Play Store Fixes?
Hello guys,
I hope I'm at the right place to ask a Q and If I'm at the wrong place, please forgive me. My Q is. I have Freedom 1.0.6 with Market unlocker and it used to work with previous Google play store.
It doesn't work now with the new Google play store update and I don't know why. When i try to purchase gems etc, it just says Google play store has stopped. So is there any solution to solve this problem? I will gladly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
play store 5.2.13 update is broken!
same problem here, anytime I click on any app - play force closes/crashes and it says "google play store has stopped" I called google and they were a bunch of a-holes about it, insisting that it was only my device and my problem. glad to read that this is widespread! although for some reason my other devices dont update themselves and stay on the previous play version 5.1.11
PS I dont have freedom and I just found out that freedom is warez. i suggest that you edit ur post and take out any mentioning of warez and focus on the real problem which is play store update 5.2.13 and perhaps that way u grab the attention of the right people who can help us. Nobody on here will help this post if ur mentioning warez!!!

What can we do?
So what can we do to solve this problem? Is there anything we can do?
Well, I will try to to downgrade my google play store and see if it works. Maybe Freedom doesn't support Android 5.2.13 which is the play store. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who is having this issue.
Same issue re: Google Play Store 5.2.13
EDIT: Please note that I don't use Freedom, however I am experiencing similar issues.
Having the same issue, on a very old device: Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE (model # SGH-I957R). Stock TouchWiz 4.0.4, device rooted with SuperSU 2.46.
My steps to duplicate the error:
1. Tap Google Play Store > app opens normally
2. Tap Search button > type in app name
3. In search results, tap an app (Facebook for instance) > page appears to load > freezes and then crashes, producing the error "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped."
4. Google Play Store closes and tablet revers to app drawer
The temporary method I've used to get around this: in your search results, tap the three dot menu on the app you want and then tap Install. Skips the app description page entirely and works fine.
So far I've tried using the steps in this XDA thread and also these Android PIT instructions, but no luck. No amount of clear cache + clear data + force stop + uninstall updates + disabling/re-enabling apps + signing out and then back in of Google Account has worked thus far. Will report back with more finding once I find a solution!
Freedom and luck patcher are banned on this site and you will not get any help concerning them.

exactly the same is happening with me. the 3 dot menu is brilliant fix for now. i've also tried everything just like u but nothing seems to work. btw - some of my other devices upgraded their market to 5.2.13 as well but they dont have this problem. i wonder if it is related to the OS? my crashes happen on ICS OS 4.0.3 and on my other device JB 4.3.1 play store 5.2.13 works ok. Note to administrator: please do not block me, i am the one who told that guy not to post about warez! now my xda app seems locked as I cant access my participated and under my profile i cant access the list of my posts either. admin - did u do smthng to my accnt?? pls dont! i am telling ppl NOT to post about warez. I didnt even know what freedom was! i had to look it up.

Virustotal looks clean.
