I've recently installed the RC of CM9 along with the most recent gapps available, and my previously installed apps are not being automatically restored. Also, if I try to install an app through the google play website, nothing happens on my phone.
Is there any solution (apart from installing them manually)?
Sorry for the noobish question.
Thanks

Hi guys, at the first sorry for my bad english. I had a rom wich Apps2sd enabled, yesterday i have changed rom on my hero with another that supports Apps2SD too.
After set up my apps are shown correctly but if i go to the download tab of market, all aps are listed but they are not signed as installed.
Are there any possibility to restore market link? Thank you very much

Nobody?
I'm wondering about this too.
I have some apps that I installed manually via the APK file, but they do exist in the Market. It would be helpful to have these apps appear in the Downloads section of the Market so that I can be alerted of updates and etc...
Titanium backup will back up the market links on your apps.
Even if you haven't wiped your ext partition when switching roms you will still have to restore each app to get the market link back..
As for adding a link for apps that never had one, I'm not sure...
Hi there! I have a rooted phone with original kernel KE8. I wanted to replace my Google Maps app (which is a system app) with a newer version of the same app. The version which came pre-installed on the SGSII was 5.2, but my friend has given me a newer version 5.6. But the problem is that the new version is not getting installed because the older version will not get removed by the uninstaller. Does anyone know how to do this?
Titanium Backup I guess.

I have Titanium Backup latest version. So how to uninstall my existing Google Maps using that app? Can you please explain in detail as I don't see any "uninstall" option in Titanium backup.

Go to the "Backup/Restore" tab. Tap the app to bring up various action buttons, one of which is uninstall. Be careful....

Did exactly what you told. Google Maps is removed but so are 3 other applications along with it.....Navigation, Places & Latitude! And the new file which I had of Google Maps v5.6 version is also NOT installing. So now what to do? How do I get them back? I did not create any backup of them before uninstalling the existing Google Maps.

install Google Maps from market... after install u'll get back Latitude/Places/Navigation...
@prosumerhacks : Thanks, that's exactly what I'm doing right now. But was just wondering why wouldn't the phone install a Google Maps file which is already downloaded and transferred to my phone from my laptop?

It does, under the tab "Constricter" find Maps and uninstall. It works here!
Thanks everyone for helping. I re-installed the latest version of Google Maps from the Market again. Navigation, Places & Latitude are a part of Google Maps only and were also installed.
There is also an app called 'Root Uninstaller' free in Android market which allows to uninstall and even freeze system/sd card apps which TB doesn't allow in the free version.

My android is causing some problems. I am planning to factory restore my phone.
I have a few questions...
I have purchased lots of apps from Google play store. I do not want all the apps to be downloaded. How can I prevent all apps from getting downloaded to my phone?
There is a firmware upgrade waiting to be installed right now. is it possible to delete the firmware? I do not want to put that on my phone....
Re-downloading Apps
It has been my experience that only those apps that were actually installed on the phone are automatically re-downloaded. So, you could go to Settings, Apps, ALL, and uninstall those apps that you don't want to be downloaded after you restore. It might also be good to reboot after uninstalling, and before restoring.

How about purchased apps? I do not have any purchased apps installed on my phone (just purchased). I do not want them to be downloaded.
Hello fellow users of XDA,
I recently downloaded Cyanogenmod 9 for the Asus transformer prime and I also installed the Google Apps Package.
However, there is no Youtube app in the app drawer and I cannot seem to download it from the Google Play Store, is there anyway to get Youtube back?
Any help is appreciated, thank you so much.

Strange, unless there is a compatibility issue right now with CM9 ( I would check the CM page here on XDA or where ever you downloaded from to make sure this isn't the issue). Otherwise, I would redownload and reflash CM9 and GAPPS (google apps 4/29 or latest) and see if that doesn't fix it. Make sure if you didn't the first time that you full data wipe factory reset. Back up any apps with Titanium backup root. If you did wipe the first time you installed CM9 then just do a cache wipe in CMW.
Youtube is no longer included in Gapps.

I recently upgraded from an Android 7 phone (Moto G5) to an Android 9 phone (Moto G7). I like to back up all of my apps that I plan on using in the future, using a backup app like ML Manager, and installing them locally with a file browser, like FX. On my new phone, there are some APK backups that I can't install from a file browser; even if I actually download them though the Google Play Store, back them up, uninstall them, and then try to install that backup on the same phone, it won't work. Not every app does this, and at first, I thought it was only paid apps that were giving me problems, so I chalked it up to DRM, but a bunch of free apps won't work, either.
I've tried alternate methods of installation, too, like using a terminal emulator (see the screenshot, using the app Manual Camera as an example), and ADB on a PC, which results in an INSTALL_FAILED_VERIFICATION_FAILURE error. I've searched for this error and followed directions, like disabling Play Protect (which I never enabled on this phone, anyway), but nothing works. Is this just how Android is now? Did something change so that it's harder to install backups? I tried all of this on my wife's phone, too, which also runs Android 9, and I got the same errors. Any help would be appreciated, because I'm out of ideas. Thanks in advance!

Some apps are different for noghat and pie Android
So there is no grantee that you can install all APK that you backed up on noghat for pie
Download them from Google
It should completely work
Make sure that you have free space on internal storage and when you wanna download them make sure that download arm/arm64 version

Yeah, downloading from the Play Store definitely works, I'm just curious as to why backing up an app downloaded from the Play Store won't install from the APK *on the exact same device.* I'm a stickler for keeping local backups of everything, but I'm more curious than anything at this point.

Well there is a another reason
That is some app install with APK
And other one install with APKS
which you should install them with SAI and have two or three file to install (even more)
And when you backup from apks apps it doesn't backup all files to install it again
But at play store it install automatically

Holy crap, dude, I had NO idea that split APKs were a thing. I downloaded Split APK Installer from the Play Store, and I can make and restore local backups again. Thank you so much for the info, it was exactly what I needed!
