i have noticed that alot of the apps i have on my phone do not show up in the market on the nook. actually at most it only shows maybe 15-20 apps per category. i do a search for a app and it dont show up either. flash for instance does not exist in the market. anyone know why
turn the nook to landscape and more will show up. or install the new market.

I don't know why this.is happening, although I am having the same problem. I just started taking the apks from /data on my phone and loading them onto the nook and installing them that way. Its more complicated than using the market, but not a whole lot more complicated.!

irnoically turning it landscape mode worked as for showing up more apps lol. no clue why but it worked. it still wont find half the apps i have on my phone. like flash wont show up which is kind of important when using the web to its full. can you use astro to instal apps on this like you can on a phone? or is there some different procedure
There's another post in the nook forums which basically states to install "fastweb installer" and "AppBrain App Market". This worked for me and allowed me to find programs like Trillian (but at that price, @#[email protected]#$ that).
I don't think there's an overly usable flash at this point. You'll need to wait for 2.2 from B&N or the NookDevs.
The market on the NOOKcolor, even if it looks like the new market, will only show applications that conform to the Android API 7 API level (2.1 and below). FroYo apps all conform to the Android API 8, so they won't show up on your nook unless you drop FroYo onto it.

Using Root Explorer, I changed the System/App folder to R/W and was then able to upgrade the current Marketplace to the newer APK that is floating around the forums. With the new marketplace all apps are showing without needing to turn the screen to landscape.

The problem stated in this thread isn't about the ability to scroll lists in portrait or landscape, rather it is about the ability to see apps that other devices can find.
Two I have seen that immediately come to mind: searching for Firefox, and searching for Trillian (which was a rude way to find out Trillian is both out of beta and now rather expensive, dammit).
Neither will show up on the NC, but show up as the first result on my Droid.
And my NC is also running the latest iteration of Market.

Well, I know flash doesn't show up because it's not (yet) supported on NC. Maybe Firefox and Trillian don't show up for the same reason?

Some people are saying these apps, and others, are showing up for them no problem.

Are these people that are running nookie froyo, or stock 2.1?
All the apps will show up in nookie. They shouldn't in stock 2.1.
Worked on Nootered and Nookie Froyo .59 with new Market
I had the same issue and followed these insturctions from (i think) the original Nootered thread, but cant remember for sure.
Settings->Applications->Manage Applications-> Market->Clear Cache (NOT DATA!)
then
Settings->Applications->Manage Applications-> Google Services Framework -> Clear Data -> Force Close
reboot
After that SliceIt, Minimalistic Text, and others that were not available previously appear.

Works nicely, but ends up with all the foriegn language apps showing up as well. Any idea how to restrict results on the marketplace by language ?

Have had nothing but fun playing with the nook. Even formatting my microsd card in the nook and ending up with it not turning on for a day till I repartitioned the storage didn't make me think it was not worth the effort. Compared to a $600 Galaxy Tab the nook is a bargain and well worth all the love bestowed on it IMHO.
fyi just clearing the market cache made some apps i couldn't find before appear. so even if the google framework is non existent in some like mine clearing cache does help
Google framework is not listed on my apps list. Im trying to download games such as angry birds and rocket bunnies but they don't show up
Hello
I have noticed after I installed the new version of BAMF (and when I did my TiBackup before installing it) that I am missing market links for nearly 50% of my apps. Also these apps aren't showing up in the "My Apps" list in the Market.
It used to be that in my TiBackup all my apps had the "M" icon (which means App+data+market link) but now about half of them are showing a smiley face (which means App+data).
Is there anyway to restore those links? In TiBackup there is an option for market doctor, but that seems to restore links from backups, if I understand it correctly.
I'd like to have the links to make sure I'm running the latest version of all the software.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have the exact same problem.
I had the same problem. The following fixed it for me let me know if it works for you...
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > open all tab > find and open Market > clear data and force stop.
This should take care of it for ya! Hope it helps!

It worked! Many thanks! (you have been thanked)
The key was the Force Stop. Clearing Data by itself won't do it.

I've searched everywhere and I can't seem to find a solution to this. Does anyone know how to clear your download history for the "Downloads" app? I do not want to delete the files, just remove them from the history.
This really shouldn't be that hard. With firefox it's as simple as clicking "clear browsing/download history" but on chrome I can't seem to find a way to remove these items either individually or as a whole. You can't clear it from within chrome, downloads has no app data so you can't clear that, it also has no cache so you can't clear that. I can't even figure out where it stores it's history, much less how to clear it.
[edit] solved. You need to clear "Download Manager", not "downloads". I would still like to see a way to remove items 1 by 1 though.
Hi folks! Well, I just thought I should stop by and ask cause I can't find anywhere else an answer to my problem.. Here it is:
I have an app that when someone downloads it from the Play Store, recognizes the phone and connects to a server (Internet is needed) so every time I open it I have all my data and my "app activity" shown there. So, here's the thing: I want to sell the phone to a friend of mine, but I don't want (neither does he) to reset to factory because he wants a large amount of the apps I have already intalled and it is part of the price.
So, I ask you: Is there a way to completely remove-uninstall an app and ALL of its data so that there is no way for the app to have MY data displayed (no trace left), and basically the app is "reseted' to factory, so that my friend can use from scratch?
Thanks!
Under application manager select the app you want to "reset" and hit clear cache.

Hey! Thanks for the answer, but I have already tried this and it doesn't work, nor does the deletion of data files of the app in the data\data\[app folder]... Does someone else knows something else I could do?

Accidentally thanked you...
I have been trying to do something similar. There is a game I downloaded (scarface) and played. I tried clearing cache, uninstalling, even formating internal memory through recovery + flashing a new ROM but when I install the game again my previous game info/data is still there !!! Fuuuuuu :nomegusta:
In your case you can try an app like mybackup or romtoolbox to backup apks to SD. Factory reset/flash new rom. Then use same app to install all the apps back minus data.

I think Titanium backup provides the perfect solution for you. You just have to open the particular application and Select Wipe Data.... It just deletes the data that YOU HAVE SAVED AFTER INSTALLATION OF THE APPLICATION OR GAME.... Hope I Helped....

I am also checking different forums to find a solution to this type of problem.If you have noticed any one of the same , plz let me know.
Try deleting the com.appname folder from root/data/data
ps. will need root permissions for that
i think clear cache and clear data in app manager in settings can reset it.
In your case when you dont want to factory reset and remove all your activity from game server you need to contact game developers tell them your situation and if they are kind enough they will help you.
Well many time game devs don't trust you completely and refuse your request. in this case you need to reset your android device ID Which requires ROOT and an app that Reset your device ID.
Its not the game data on your device its your game activity linked to your Device Activity. Factory reset change the device ID some time so you can backup your apps like many of our friends suggested and factory reset your device than restore apps from back up.
one last thing many game has there data linked to your gmail account as well. :good:

An off-topic question: is it good the free version or is it necessary to buy it? I'm using it (still kinda new on the root thing) and i want to now if it's worth than the free one.
clear cache/data. and removing files from file manager for any hard downloads like images,videos etc...
For anyone still trying to find a different method
Go to settings
Click on "apps" "app manager" or whatever else it might be called on different devices.
Delete cashe & data from desired apps.
Also do it to google play and play games app.
Add a new email and delete the one you had before.
Make sure you log out of all apps before starting the process. Some apps will manege to keep you logged in even after deleting the data.
Dropbox is the app that keeps me logged in even after delete cashe and data.
Having trouble installing an app completely no matter what I do
The apps I'm referring to are Mobile Strike and Game of War. I want to start over with this game but it keeps saving all my data. I don't have a new device so I can't simply start a new account. I've tried encrypting my device and then factory resetting, and even creating a new gmail account, but the data is still there. I have a moto e. Thanks in advanced.
Thank you.
I had tried everything.. but finally this worked.
I dont know why google wants to do this stupid thing. Uninstall should mean complete removal for any app.. why it preserves residues to torment us.
You can also get sdmaid app. It has many useful tools but one is a corpse finder and you can wipe all these leftover residue files using that with a push of a button or set it up to do it on its own. Super awesome app imo! Check it out! One of my personal favorite apps!
I Have an app that opens other apps up (Intentionally) but it leaves that apps running in the background which bogs down the phone because the RAM gets full. So I am looking for an app that can be scheduled to run that will accomplish this but leaves the main app still running. Would an app that clears other apps data (Not cache.) accomplish this?
Android Lolipop, marshmallow, and nougat compatible.
Phone cannot be rooted.
Love this forum and all the help you all give out. Thanks a lot for your time.
I guess you could work with Tasker. But i don't know how so you will have to search up on guides for that.
Developer options
You can stop background apps from running in your developer options.. Go to settings>aboutdevice>software info and tap build number 7 times to unlock developer options. Go back on screen and scroll to the bottom on the dev opt look for option running services and close whatever you need.. hope this helps.

The issue with that is, it needs to be automated and be on a schedule.
Frep or Tasker are options, just been a long time since I actually used them and was looking for something easier to deal with.

Does Tasker still cost money? Try macrodroid.. there are thousands of premade templates already. I'm sure there is one already configured that will fit your need. It's free too.

Thanks for the info, way easier then Frep. I tried out clearing app data and selected the apps I wanted to clear the data from. Shockingly, it would only do it with a rooted device. This does not make sense as clearing app data is easily accessible and does not need special access. Set up to kill background processes but having no effect so far. I could not find any templates for this unless I was missing in the search criteria.
Thanks for the info though, much appreciated. I will keep testing.
