issuess w/ apps missing from Google Play after rooting - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello,
i have a epic 4g rooted, stock rom, seems that when i go to the market, it does not show the apps that i have installed and/or the ones that i purchased. additionally, if i were to delete one of these missing apps, they still dont show up in the market/google play. I have attempted to use various market enablers, but this has not solved my issue. on another note, and perhaps related, when i use titanium backup only one app shows setcpu, while previously it was working.
a lending hand would greatly be appreciated.
eric

Make sure you are syncing and signing in with your gmail account that you purchased the apps on. Do you have more than one gmail account?

[Q] New 10.1 Tab. Market Question

I got a 10.1 tab last night and it's great. I have one issue maybe you can help me with regarding the market and apps. My wife and I both have android phones and we are sharing the tablet. When I set it up and put in our email addys I went into the market and it was downloading all of the app we have on our phones. Cool feature if I'm replacing my phone, but not for a shared device that I don't need to be identical to our phones. Is there a way to not make it do this? The thought I have is to create a dummy account for both of us but then it seems like it will be weird to use gmail app and stuff like that.
Thanks!
wait what?
Are both you using the same Google Account?
No shared accounts. I put in both of our gmails under, settings then accounts. Now we can switch between the 2 accounts in the gmail app but I hate that the market downloaded each of our phone apps.
It's because there is a setting when you first ran the market or setup your gmail on the tablet. It's the option where you allow Google to download previously purchased apps off the market and because your phone uses the same account, Google assumes you want the same apps, if the app is compatible with tablet. Remember purchase can be paid or free apps. It won't sync again like that after the first time unless you decide to reformat and you don't uncheck that box again.

[Q] Relink Free Apps to different Google Account?

Hello,
When I initially set up my Captivate, I accidentally set my work email account as my primary account. Thus, all of my installs during that time have been associated with that account. I'd like to switch my apps to my personal account. I'm slowly working through my paid apps, buying and getting refunds to switch those over. Now, I want to fix up my free apps.
Today, I tried to uninstall/reinstall my free apps to make the switch but it didn't seem to work for many of the apps despite all of the effort involved to give it a try. I have Titanium Backup with a Pro key. Is there any way to use that or something else to relink my *free* apps to a different account without uninstall/reinstall?
Thanks,
Craig
Maybe the advice in this thread will help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909864
Unfortunately, I don't think that will help. I tried to relink with Titanium yesterday through the obvious options, but it never prompted me for which market account to use. I don't know if it is maybe using the default Google account?
Don't know if this will work but I read it here.
1. Download Root Explorer from Android Market
2. Explore to /data/system/ and find this file : accounts.db
3. Delete that file (accounts.db)
4. Reboot your Android device.
5. Walla…you can register another account
I actually found another way to handle this. It turns out that the mapping is held in a SQLite database at:
/dbdata/databases/com.android.vending/market_assets.db
There is a column there that maps to the Google account. I was able to pull that file off my phone, alter it with a bit of SQL and put it back in place on the device. This fixed most of the applications. There are still some that I'm having trouble getting control over (a couple Google apps and one paid app that I have paid for on both accounts). However, that cleaned up pretty much everything.
After I did all of this, I did find a setting in Titanium to control the market account. It *may* have been possible to use that to do the same thing. I didn't try it, so I can't say.

Google Play: Anyway of removing Apps from "My Android Apps"?

Hi. I've Just installed a fresh CM9 and synced the phone to my google account. Once it synced it started downloading apps I had previously downloaded which are listed in my Google play account (including a lot of crappy apps listed that I previously messed around with). Is it possible to remove apps from my Google play account? Because I don't want certain apps automatically installed. Cant find an option on the Google play site...
Maybe you can rewrite your post, cause I have no idea what you want.
You installed CM9 and all your apps etc. are gone? And you are missing the market app?
For now I don't think there is any way of doing this.
Looky here...
yeah i was talking gibberish, updated now

Google play store purchased apps help

So I need serious help/explanation to this issue I have come across. I had created a new Google account due to my old one being hacked into.
What I realized is that all my apps would be gone if I removed my old email from the phone. So realizing that I am rooted with titanium backup, I did a backup of all my apps on TB....reset my phone to factory settings...put my new Google account in and ran a restore of all my apps that were associated with my old Google account. Worked like a charm, until it came to my purchased apps.
Whenever I have an update for a purchased app I get the 403 error code. So I tried to uninstall the app and see if it would make me re-buy it under my new Google account...nope. It says "purchased" and when I hit install I get the same 403 error code.
Now I know the obvious way around this is to keep my old Google account on the phone but I really don't want to do that. Is there a way I can somehow unlink the purchased apps so I can just rebuy them?
Need your help and thanks in advance!

[Q] Rooted Kyocera Torque, accidentally deleted Contacts & Contacts Sync Adapter

So I had my Kyocera Torque successfully rooted (thanks SO much to this thread), had Titanium Backup installed, and everything was grand. But then I got a little delete-happy and wanted to get rid of all things Google. That included Google Contacts. Apparently the phone can't store and/or sync contacts without it. CardDAV, Fruux, Owncloud, none of those contact apps work without this Google Contacts app (AFAIK). And of course I didn't back up any system apps with Titanium beforehand.
I tried a factory reset, re-rooting, took to the Sprint store, nothing is working. My root access has gone away for whatever reason (another issue entirely), so I can't even get into Titanium Backup anymore. I'm not sure what to do. I can mostly use/handle the phone in its current half-rooted/half-bricked(ish) state, but the Contacts thing is driving me crazy. Any suggestions? Is there any other way to manage contacts without the Google system apps?
