[Q] Market crashes after Rom (Theme) install. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Today I've installed ICS DOMINATION v4.0.1 and I must say I am very impressed with it and it runs very smooth, finally my Galaxy s2 looks more like a ICS phone.
The Issue is,
After I installed this Rom I couldn't find the Android Market, I was told to find Play Store after the previous Market recently got updated into Play Store.
I have found Play Store and I installed it, I accepted the terms and it's all good.
But when I tried to search for a App, it crashed and every time I try to open Play Store it crashes.
It's pretty frustrating and I hope you people can help me out here?
Kind regards.

After uninstalling updates clear data, delete vending.apk from system/app
And redownload Google play market from themes and apps section and install it

Back to stock (or GB custom rom) & wait for official ICS if you really want to get rid of the problem.

When Google Market switched to Play Market or whatever the new name is, I found that where I had it on my home screen was broken and needed to pulled from the app drawer again. It even needed a reboot first.
Again, just now almost, I had a problem and resolved it the same way but this time it was more apparent because I had a broken icon on the home screen as well. Same thing; had to pull it from the app drawer.
Both times this happened while I was in the middle of updating apps.
There is this possibility, long shot as it may be...

Have you tried applications management, force stop market, clear data, do same with Google framework. Reboot, run market. If not search for Google Play. Apk. Download, intall and repeat above

DAE have most apps report they are incompatible with their gtab? Its liike the ics beta doesn't have the so called market fix?!?!
No problems here. Google Play updated just fine, and most apps I am looking for show up with the default settings.
With the ICS Beta 1.0, you can go into ROM Control and change the footprint to be seen as different tablets, such as the Xoom and Transformer.
Make sure to Force Stop the Market (Play Store) app and clear data (also check to see if Market Updater needs to be force closed). You may also have to force stop Google Framework and clear its data as well.
If you change footprints, you have to clear market data so it will load the new footprint.
Try upgrading to the latest gapps package TeamDRH released. It has google play built in.
This worked thanks!

Select the widgets tab from your app drawer then drag and drop.
Loving this ROM, it installed with no issues. Multitouch gestures are not working at all for me (which would be fine if I didn't have apps that seem to require it).
Has anyone found a successful way to get rid of the status bar at the bottom?
I have looked at other threads, it seems some ROMs have this built in. The auto-hide option in settings didn't work, and I tried the Gesture Control app with no luck either (maybe because multitouch isn't working for me).

[Q] Google Play "Missing Apps" Issue

Hello,
My problem is identical to the one show here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377514
Basically, when you go to "My Apps" in google play, it just says "Applications and Games owned by this account will appear here."
I am unable to download previously purchased apps.
I have tried ALL the solutions on that thread to no avail.
It happened after I upgraded my Rom to a newer version (hydrogenics 23/03 to 25/03) but I doubt it is ROM related, since flashing back to the backup of my 23/03 rom does not resolve the problem.
My Google Play app is on the latest version (3.5.15) which is supposed to solve this issue.
I am really desperate and at a loss. Anyone can help?

Have that problem to, google play only shows the installed apps you bought and not the not yet installed ones. Type the name of the app in the market search bar and you can download and install it and then it shows up in the installed apps list.
At least for me it worked

The thing is, the purchased app doesn't even say "purchased". It just states the price like I have never purchased it at all.
Then when I try to "purchase" it again, it gives me a 403 error.
When I override it with the old Android market (2.3.6) it works fine.
Do note that even with Google Play in the Browser the same problem persists (Purchased apps are not shown as purchased, but purchase history is seen in Google Wallet, trying to purchase them again gives me an error, similar to what happens in the phone). Seems to be a problem on Google's end but I don't know why. I have emailed them but they have yet to reply.

Try clearing the data in google play in settings, apps, all. Load google play and close after it has loaded it and open it again. Your apps should now be visible

Haha that's the first thing I tried. Like I said, weird thing is, even on the browser on my computer the issue persists with the purchased apps, let alone the "My Apps" list.

I think it is ROM related. Paradoxxx (Hydrogenics' dev) was aware of it anyway.
I had this problem on his 29/03 version, did a full wipe (wipe data/wipe cache/dalvik/format system) and installed the 31/03 version, all was fine.

Samsung Apps

Hey guys,
I just bought my note today after wanting it for some time.
question, my Samsung apps app won't open. All it does is go directly to google play. It says the application needs an update. But when I try updating google market tells me the app isn't available for my carrier. (att).
What's going on here? I'm trying to download some note specific apps. Like zen brush with pressure sensitivity.
What are some good drawing apps. And is there any way to calibrate the pen?
Thanks everyone

Not sure about the Samsung apps. can you uninstall then re install? I heard one way that might help the pen is to change the dominant hand to ur non dominant then back to your dominant. I haven't tried it. Try Monkey Write...you can learn Chinese.

I saw the monkey Chinese app. But not really interested in learning. Maybe I'll dl later for fun.
Samsung apps can't be uninstalled seems like it's bloatware. But I'm still interested in the free s pen apps it's offering. It has zen brush optimized for the note

When you pull up "My Apps" in the Play store menu, does it show Samsung Apps as being installed? When you then click on it what options does it give you? Open/Uninstall? Open/Upgrade?
If there is an upgrade it should be available from there.
Many of the stock apps can be updated but require manually searching for each one, tapping on the app, then tapping the install / update button. Note that once an app is manually updated, you no longer need to search manually to update them in the future, they will show up as 'Installed' under My Apps. Alternatively, if you have Titanium Backup (requires root), you can link all the apps on your phone to the market which will allow all of these apps listed below to be listed under the 'My Apps' in the Playstore (which will allow you to tap 'Update All' button instead of manually searching one by one for each).
Stock apps that can be manually updated:
Adobe Flash Player
AT&T Navigator: GPS navigation
Featured Apps (Phone)
Gmail
Google Play Books
Google Play Music
Google Search
Kies Air
(Google) Maps
Media Hub-ATT 4G Smartphones
S Memo
Samsung Apps
Street View on Google Maps
Talkback
(Google) Voice Search
Youtube
YP Yellow Pages & Gas Prices
Try updating Samsung Apps and Featured Apps first.
Also, you might need to delete your Google account information (Accounts under Settings and long press on your account) and then re-add your account information (which can be done in the same screen OR by launching the market and you will then be prompted to re-enter your account information).
Oh, maybe also try clearing the data for the market (settings->Applications, 'All' button at the top, scroll to market and tap it, force stop, clear cache, clear data) and restart the market. The market does receive over the air updates automatically from Google and if the market on your phone isnt current, it could cause wonky issues. The way I usually force an update is to first clear the market data, launch the market and wait for it to fully load. Check the version number. If it isnt current, reboot and relaunch the market. Repeat rebooting and relaunching the market until its current (worst case scenario it took me 3-4 reboots).
Current version of the market is 3.5.16 (for the AT&T Note on STOCK firmware - it will be different depending on your phone model and Android version so if you have another phone or a different OS aside from the stock Gingerbread rom, it may not match this version number) and you can check this by opening the market, tap the menu button, hit settings, and scroll all the way to the bottom.
If all else fails, try a factory reset. Its a new phone so you shouldnt have much to backup before you do so (Settings->Privacy). This will require you to re-update the market (see above). Im almost positive any previously updated stock apps will have to be re-updated as well.
And, I should have probably asked this at the top, the Note you bought, did you buy it at the AT&T store or is it an unlocked Note you bought somewhere else?
Im running saurom and i also cant download samsung apps or note optimized apps such as zen brush or omnisketch. I have tried clearing play store data but still nothing. It keeps saying your device is not compatible
Okay well can't clear any Samsung apps data from application manager.
Google play is latest version. Samsung apps isn't under my installed apps. When I search for it I get an open or update option. When I update get the same error saying not available on your carrier.
When I open it. Get an error message saying not able to connect to market for update.
I'm attaching the screen I get in Samsung apps.
Phone isn't rooted yet. And wouldn't like to do a reset.
Does anyone have an Apk for Samsung apps or for the Samsung s pen enabled zen brush or omni sketch?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
I was able to update s memo by searching in the store and updating when I found it. Same way I tried with Samsung apps except it worked and no error.
Still not able to do anything with Samsung apps. seems to be an issue multiple people are having. For some reason changing the dpi with a rooted app fixes google play issues.
Any insight?

I got samsung apps working by restoring the backup i had from the stock rom. It opens and works on saurom now, however it doesnt show in my apps on the market/play store. Also when i go into samsung apps and look at s pen apps such as omnisketch, zen brush, comic book.. etc and when i click install on them it takes me to the play store where it says my device is incompatible?? How do i fix this ? Any help would be appreciated.
I also have tit backup how could I use that to make Samsung apps to show up in my apps in the market

Okay guys well I have a fix.
All I had to do was uninstall the update for google play in application manager.
So then play turned back into the market. Logged into the market looked up and downloaded Samsung apps no problem then updated google play.
Seems like there's a dpi issue with google pay. That's why there's an app that changes dpi (root required) that also fixes google play issues.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
That's good you got your Samsung apps working. My dpi is stock its 320. My Samsung apps started working but the apps inside dint work if you get what I'm saying. Like when I click on some apps to download them it says my device is incompatible. Has this happened to you? I think it's a dpi issue in the play store but my dpi is stock and I even un installed store data but it still doesn't work. Do you have a fix for this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Did you try what was suggested? Open Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->'ALL' Tab at the top->Market->Uninstall Updates.
Then relaunch the market and let it update.
There are occasionally issues with the market not converting to the Play store as well, for this, you need to remove your account and re-add it (Settings->Accounts->Long Press on your account->Remove Account. After removing your account, reboot and in re-open the market and you'll be prompted for that information.

Open TB and tap the menu button, Im not 100% sure where it is but you are looking for Market Doctor (I think its under tools or more, like the lower right option in the menu that comes up). Tap that and there will be a dialog for what type of apps you want to link to the market. Tap the System+User apps option.
Yes ive done those steps. I have tried removing my account and reinstalling it as well as clearing play store data. Everything works except its the same as last time some apps dont install from samsung apps and they are the spen optimized apps, it still says device incompatible and when i just try searching in the play store they dont even show up.
Okay so I used titanium backup market doctor to link my Samsung apps to the store because it wasn't showing up before. I linked it and a notification came up successfully saying it was linked but when I looked in the play store it wasn't linked and it didn't show up. When I search for Samsung apps in play store it doesn't show up and when I google to get a link to play store it says the device is incompatible (same thing happens with apps like zen brush and omni Sketch). I also checked my dpi it is stock and hasn't changed.

I would suggest a factory reset then from within whatever current rom you are using.
Ill see if I can figure anything out.
Best drawing app

Has pressure sensitivity.. worth the price.
Under ICS pressure does not work though, but works perfect on stock / GB roms.
I just went back to my stock rom and bam i am no longer getting the incompatible message but my samsung apps is still stuck but i will try the steps and see if it fixes it on the stock rom

So i kept doing the wipe data uninstall google play and like on the 6th time opening the app ( i couldnt find it on the market/play store) it prompted me to do an update and it started installing and i checked automatically update. After it was done it finally worked however i still dont see it on my installed apps in the play store? Is this a problem? Should i worry that it doesnt show up?

[Q] Multiple apps previously downloaded are not compatible with phone in Play Store

Hi all. I need some help in figuring out what the problem is.
Currently I am running Paranoid Kangdroid by JamieD. I have multiple apps that are downloaded, but when I go to their Play Store Page, I get a meesage that says my device isn't compatible with the app.
Here are some of the apps that are applicable to this problem:
Square Register
Tasker
Google Hangouts (replaces Talk)
9Gag Official App
Temple Run 2
Amazon Mobile
There are a lot more apps, but these are just a few.
This problem also occurred with PTMR's Debloated JB 4.1 and JamieD's Revolt. I was wondering what could the problem be? Resetting the DPI did not fix anything and I wasn't sure making a post in the development thread would be the best place to ask my question. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I'd try this (I'm tired so I'll forget actual details):
Make sure your play store is 320 size and 360 layout. Once that's done, restart phone, then delete cache and data for play store and play services, restart again.

Thanks for your reply, but it didn't work. Maybe we're missing a crucial step?
The weird thing about this is that the play store didn't act weird until recently (maybe within the past week). Before, at 220 dpi and 600 layout, I didn't have this problem with the apps mentioned above.
You were on the right track. I just had to reset the dpi for the play store in the hybrid settings. Thanks for the help.

[Q] Unfortunately Google play has stopped working. After installing an app! HELP

So I have the pirate bay app on my AT&T htc one running stock jellybean. I cam across an app called Google play modded. Which I thought meant I can go in and customize the Google play store and delete the bloatware that come with the phone, but I found out that It was something totally different. So I went to uninstall it from the app drawer and It deleted the whole Google play store. I downloaded and apk file from some website which fixed it. but after rebooting I got this error. I then went to titanium backup and wiped the data. It fixed the crashes but now I for some reason am running the modded Google play app again. I deleted Google play services and google play app. rebooted my phone. It removed the modded Google play store and fixed everything, but whenever I try downloading an app It breaks everything.
I'm running Jelly bean 4.2.2 on stock android. HTC one.
Thanks for your help in advance.
