Google play not showing all the apps - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The google play on my phone is not showing all the apps that I have downloaded. Also when i try to update it says" your device isn't compatible with this version". I never had this problem until yesterday.

You should put some more information on. Such as, what rom are you running currently and what kernel are you running?
Best regards,

no showing all apps .. just tab menu then apps after this flick left with ur finger (there are 2 tabs up there ) and u will get all the apps u have installed since u even got ur S2
not compatible .. it may be designed for another phone or another version of android higher than yours, don't forget that all android phones share the same market ,so not all apps were designed for our S2

Well, I'm not using any rom right now, the phone was rooted only. I had those apps long time ago but I never had any problem with it. I still could use them perfectly fine, but just can't see in google play's update.

[Q] Words with Friends broken since TW Update

Ever since I updated WWF after the TW update, I get an error connecting to the servers and can't play any games. I have tried a forced close and clearing cache. anyone else having problems with this? If so, does anyone have any solutions?
Thanks
-Triple
I had to update in the market place to fix mine. Works perfect now.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
I played last night and everything worked great, even got push notifications for the first time. WWF definitely needs a paid version for android to get rid of those annoying adds.
That and I can receive chat messages but I can't send them.
Tab 10.1 w/TW Wi-Fi, retail
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA Premium App
after doing the update from the market, i was able to send messages. I couldn't do anything without it FC or giving me network error message from the version that was loaded with Touchwiz.
How did you guys get the version from the market to update the TW version? When i go out to the Market "Open" is the only option I get.
when you go into settings>applications what version do you have installed? I am running 3.61
Mine shows up as 3.59. Funny thing is that the Market version says 3.61 but "open" is the only option I get.

Try clearing the cache for your market and see if it will come up
Mine is version 3.59 as well.
Same issue when I go to the market.
I just emailed the dev.
When are these adds going to be dealt with?

That did not work for me.
I removed my stock version and installed it again from the market. I pulled and zip the apk. Extract and install from from your sdcard.
I can't try it right now, but I will check it out later. Thanks for taking the time!

Naked, work was blocking the download. After getting impatient I tried logging into the Android market on my PC and forcing an install on my tablet. It worked like a charm! I am now running 3.61. I am testing it now, but I have yet to get an error.

Sweet, glad you got it working. Good idea on doing the web page market and forcing the upgrade. I'll keep that in mind in the future.
I have seen often programs not able to update properly when they are located /system/app. Since the it was part of the upgrade to TW, they have it located there.
The install from Market worked great for me as well.
Never knew you could do that.

TripleTapper, can you please explain more? Now do you "force install" from the market? It just tells me that my Nook Color is incompatible with the app, and the buttons are greyed out.
Thanks.
I just opened the Market using the browser on my PC. When I do that and search for Words for Friends I click on install. It then gives me an option to install onto my various Android devices by selecting it from a pull down. My Galaxy Tab comes up as Samsung GT-P7510.
Words has been working flawlessly now! : )

Play Store Problem?

I got the Play Store update last week and it was fine. Working smooth.
Yesterday all of a sudden, something weird happens.
First, the play store icon in my app drawer ignored the alphabetical listing and moved itself to the apps beginning with "m" (where the Market app used to be)
I clicked on sort alphabetically, and it went back to its original place, but it still has the old market icon.
Somebody help? I want the Play Store icon back in my app drawer

That weird, when I updated to Google Play I don't have any problems at all. It seems to be different from phone to phone. I'm using the HTC EVO 4G and it works fine for me. Maybe it could be a problem with which version of the Android your using?

rom problem?
Sent from my Supernatural Blade
Please try
Setting > Manage App > Google Play
=> Uninstall updates
=> Clear data
Reboot and retry
But won't that leave me with the old Android Market? That's the whole point. I want Google Play

Seems that you will need to enable location service via WiFi. Seems that the Play Store requires that to work, as in for my case.
Hmm. Possible. Since I've disabled it. Will try and report
Edit : No change. Still showing market icon
Sent from my Supernatural Blade
Ok...what home launcher are you using?go to settings,select the launcher app and clear data...you may have to rearrange your stuff but it usually reloads every icon again...hope this does the trick...

Install apps on phone or tablet from Computer over the web

Hey Guys,
So i brought this up in a forum and it didnt seem like anyone knew what i was talking about and i wanted to make the feature known to all because it is that awesome and apple doesnt do this.
Im talking about if you go to play.google.com, choose "My Android apps" and then you can manage your apps from any computer in the world as long as your phone is connected to some kind of interet. Even if your not it will just pick up your install or uninstall when it hits an internet connection. You can search the playstore and all its glory and choose which device to install the app on if you have more than one device, it will even tell you whether or not its compatible with your device. If you dont know of the feature you should try it because it is a time saver like a mofo.
Yeah I've used this before and love it!
One question for ya though. When you go to install an app, does it actually install for you? Mine I have to open playstore on my phone and go to my apps page where it's waiting to be installed.

My apps install fine. I will click to install an app from my computer, and then if I look at my phone right after, it will show it downloading.

Dang it must be a setting I need to change. I waited for an hour one day and nothing. The next time I realized it was instantly waiting on my phone for me to click install.
Thats a lil odd, i have never had to go to my phone and click install they just install for me after i click intall on the website. I would go to the bottom of the Page, click "My orders and settings", click the settings tab, and see if your device is using the newest sync version of itself. Sometimes when flashing OS's on your phone will create a new instance of that phone rather than taking on the last. You may just need to check off your most recent version and uncheck the older one.

very big play-store problem

hello, guys as the title suggests i have a problem regarding the playstore actually a huge problem, whenever i open playstore.apk, it force closes, so i thought to use playstore from my browser, but in vain, whenever i type any apps name, it shows me this
"We couldn't find anything for your search - astro.
Suggestions:
Make sure all words are spelled correctly.
Try different keywords.
Try more general keywords." (in this case i tried to search for astro)
and when i directly go to the apps playstore link , it tells me that the app is incompatible with my phone, even though it is compatible (happens with almost every app, i.e almost every app is incompatible with my device)
also when i click on play on google.co.in, i get a grey screen, i've attached a screenshot
sorry for bad english, m not getting the correct words to express the problem, hope u all cooperate
do, you guys have any solution, i've formatted my whole phone with sd-card, tried flashing other rom, now m on JB moonbreaker but nothing works

How did you rooted it?
There is an very easy way to do it ... with kingoroot. It took me like 3 minutes totally and no issues up to now. I even got an stupid /security/ update which f**ed up some things with an adware inspired by facebook messenger so whenever i`m trying to read or send a message trough browser i get immediately redirected in play store where I get offered to install the app.
However i just want to say that i`m still getting some updates even with my rooted j5.
I rooted with odin

It's related to facebook changes. Search internet and see.
As a solution, you can change the browser to desktop mode and then you won't have that annoying problem.
There are also some slim facebook alternatives, search on xda / Reddit / Google.
I'm using facebook on browser as well.
