I'm running the CM7 nightly roms on my NC, and I've recently noticed a number of apps no longer listed as compatible from the market. Angry Birds for example, does not have the install button on the previous market, and on the new 3.1.X market actually has a message at the top of the window that says incompatible.
The web version of the market has my nook grayed out in the install window.
My build.prop is the stock CM7 one, no hacking.
What gives?
I had the same problem and believe the is some other posts for this.
My fix was:
1. diable wifi
2. uninstall the market update
3. backup and uninstall market updater with titanium backup
Sent from my NookColor
My fix is:
set resolution to 160dpi (using LCD Density app or hacking build.prop) and clear Market data
???
profit!!!
Many apps which I have downloaded from market before are saying that they are not available in my country. Whats the point excluding countries? Do the dev wanna make money or not?

I did this..I couldn't run Yahoo fantasy football app
1.disabled market update..use old store
2. Froze market update in titanium backup
3. cleared cache and data from store app and from Google services frameworks.
I can now download yahoo and other programs that would not even give me a download button...
I just installed cm7 7.0.0 stable along with the gapps and it came with the new market what would be the best way to allow me to download the tablet version of apps along with google maps/earth right now they say incompatible

Some countries do not have paid app support. Sometimes the dev just likes to keep stuff in the US to not have any problems with money conversions, import/export laws, etc.

Hi, I edited my build.prop manually and changed the fingerprint/description to match a Nexus S using:
ro.build.description=soju-user 2.3.4 GRJ22 121341 release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=google/soju/crespo:2.3.4/GRJ22/121341:user/relelease-keys
rebooted, cleared cache, dalvik, in cwm and booted and everything shows up and works - facebook, netflix, etc...
I just #commented out what was there and added the lines below, saved, rebooted and viola!
Im on CM7 nightly 08312011 on my Nook Color, hope that helps!
PS. I havent messed with the market updater/etc.. Im using the 3.13(cant remember off hand) version of the market posted also, everything showed up before n after.

I've seen this solution a lot except the others didn't say clear market data. I just wanna emphasize that point. It makes the difference.

I also set dpi to 160. I didn't see any fixed app info until I took my Nook to a wifi network I've never used before and ran Google Market; it showed (for the first time after autoupdating to the newer GM a few weeks ago) the accept/deny conditions window. After clicking accept, GM started showing not only the usual apps, games, books sections but also movies. Half my apps which weren't showing updates before showed available updates. Google Market itself updated to the latest edition, still showing Movies.
I'm not sure if using the NC at a brand-new location did something to market data, but if the dpi fix isn't working I would recommend trying (the market data clear).

To get it to work you need to clear market data. That is the main part of the dpi fix not something new.

Well, point was I haven't actively cleared market data, but apps that were blocked before came back and movies are now active --- so does GM do a market data clear when joining a new network or was it something else?

The market auto-updates data. This is also why it breaks again after awhile.

Market seems to be fixed, most likely on Google's server end. A number of us have not needed to clear market data for several days now. I'm going on 4 days with fully functioning market at 160 and no data clearing. Joenathane is experiencing the same. It is possible that this is what angomy experienced albeit in an indirect fashion.
I did not notice till I flashed the newest gapps (0823), so can't say for sure why it is working. Would suggest those clearing market data before opening the app to stop doing so for a while and see if the apps list stays solid.
incompatibility in market
after trying everything, i also found that (atleast for me) if i cleared data for the market, that fixed it.
thanks,

Seeing as how their we have so much excess free space on /system, but quite limited space on /data, I thought I'd make this addon, based off the traditional Google Apps .zip addon for CyanogenMod. It contains the latest of all the included apps, as of the 26th. Included are nearly all the major Google apps available from the market.
There is also an Apps Pack Plus, containing several popular apps (Astro, Dropbox etc), system utilties (ROM Toolkit, Titanium Backup), Apps that are important to keep after a factory reset (Where's My Droid), social media apps (Faceboook + Messenger, eBuddy), and other useful apps that I personally use.
All the apps included are free and available on the Market, if any developer wants them removed, I will do so.
You can flash each on its own, however its highly recommended you flash the Google Apps Standard .zip. The Apps Pack Plus is very optional, and you can delet any of the .apks in it without issue.
Thanks to: Google, the CyanogenMod team, the developers of the included apps, and also Schwinni over at MoDaCo whose expanded GApps for the Blade inspired me.

The google apps zip from cyanogen is more then enough, but maybe i'm being a d**k and this is needed for cm7

Its just to free space in /data.
All these apps are the latest versions, and thus, versions in /daa will be removed freeing data. Cyanogens version is quite outdated at this stage. If you dont want to use it thats fine, if you do you are free to remove things or to request changes. And yeah. Read the first post.
In the long run this will end up taking more space in /data/ than it would before, as updates are released for apps that could of been moved to sd card but can't now as original app is in /system/.

Just use system cleanup to move the updates to the system again, xda just posted an article about it!
nice pack
thanks for the zip i flashed it and took out a few apps with titanium and then used system cleanup to transfer data to system and it worked great on my xplay(r800i 2.3.4 locked bootloader and CWM)
thank you for the tips

No problem! just so you know you can actually just delte apps from the .zip before you install it in Recovery.
If anyone wants changes, just ask
Rebranded the larger package as Google Apps Plus, and added a smaller package called Google Apps Standard.
Theres been no app updates, mind, due to Christmas I guess.
Made Google Apps Standard the main package, AppsPackPlus is now an optional add-on. Last change to format, promise!
Also updated Google Books app to latest version.
Also, I was thinking of adding Google Reader to the GApps standard package, and maybe Chrome To Phone and Google Authenticator to one of the packages. Thoughts?
Chrome to phone is a big yes. Use that one everyday.. (though with firefox.. so you might change that to 'browser to phone' for advanced configuration. Works the same as default chrome to phone though..)
Goolge Reader would be a big nono.
How about pulse? - Best News Readers (or RSS in general.) - Pulse.me
WhatsApp? - Most used?
Twitter? - why not?
Rolle Youtube? - Download Youtube Videos!
the XDA App? - Obviously?!
Camera Mod? - Right button Shoot
Also i love the XingPlayer aswell as TinyShark (and it's downloader!).. but that's just my preference there.
Edith:
Big Question.
I've been using my System with gapps ( obviously ) for about 2 months now.
Is it safe to flash your files above them without errors?
Will do a nandroid nontheless, but curious

Thanks for this. It's necessary in case you install a CM7 "KANG" build and the Google Market apps keep force-closing.

Any chance of doing a similar thing for the ICs gapps etc...

I never use titanium backup, but I waned tried because I have a game called candy crush and I don't want to start over again. What I have to do?, just back up the game and then after put the new rom just look for the game on titanium backup and that it? I'm going to update my current Ron hyperdrive RLS 8.1 to 9. thanks..

Well 2 things, if you have it synced to your Facebook then it restores on its own.
But without Facebook, yes. Backup app AMD data. Then look for your backup (try to backup to your SD card in case you erase internal memory)
But if you haven't gotten far in candy crush, you might as well sync with Facebook, you can't go past level 40 or something unless you ask 3 friends for tickets

[Q]Titanium backup question and also list of Alternative "markets" people use
I do not own a kindle fire HDX, but I may get one for Christmas this year. Unlike some people in these forums, I would not care if the kindle's amazon services were broken, only reason I chose this tablet was for the SnapDragon 800 and Adreno 330 over the nexus 7's S4 pro and Adreno 320. So if i were to get the 7 inch variant and root it, what markets do you use to get your Google play store apps? another question that I have is the use of titanium backup. I own a HTC Evo 4g lte smartphone running Android 4.1.2. if i were to get an app on my phone, back it up with titanium backup, then copy that folder to my kindle, and try restoring the apps(just the app not the data) using a copy of titanium backup on my kindle, would this work? if someone who has another android device and a rooted kindle and wants to try this out that would be awesome. Any response is appreciated.

There are several alternative markets mentioned around. I use 1Mobile. (http://www.1mobile.com/) it has many of the same apps as the Play Store, just maybe not the most current version. Be aware it will install its own market app but it's not intrusive.
As for restoring backups from TiBu, If it's s paid app then you'll likely run into licensing issues since the app won't be able to verify the license with the Play Store. If it's a game you're restoring then game data will/may have to be downloaded again to resolve differences in graphics chips. I restored TiBu and Root Explorer, both paid. TiBu works but as the free version. Root Explorer seemed to work fine. Other games I restored wouldn't load at all, failing on license check.

thanks, i just thought i would ask. i'll check out 1mobile.
Thanks for the quick reply!
Just throwing in my two cents here. While titanium backup works on the fire after root it gets hung on the checking for license screen of you install the pro apk. This happens even if you restore the data folder it creates with the licensing info. Also 1mobile seems to work just fine.

I looked around and did some searches but did not find this question so here goes...
In the past, I've used Titanium Backup to do this (integrate updates for system apps such as Google's Play Store and Play Services into ROM space). Not sure why, but this doesn't work for me anymore.
BTW, my Rezound is S-On, rooted, using Neo's CM11 hybrid ( 【ROM】【4.4.2】【UNOFFICIAL】CyanogenMod 11.0【02-03-14】【GPL】【HYBRID】) with dalvik.
Is there a more direct approach I could use to do this?
If a link could point me in the right direction, that might work as well.
Thanks for any help.

I prefer it over TiBu actually, it has all the same functionality but isn't quite as finicky.

System App Names in /data/app Differ from /system/app
Reporting back.
I did look into the respective directories and determined the same apks are not named the same.
I also read some of the thread for BaNkS gapps and saw mentions of libs associated with private apps and those that aren't That made me wonder if there might be files (libs or other) needed for the apks in the /system/app area that differed (for whatever reason) from those in the /data/app area.
Rather than spend much time fooling with it, I decided not to try any experiments.
Still looking for other alternatives but living with what I have for now.

Thanks for popping in to reply.
That's my understanding as well; that's why I don't use it to restore any system apks. But that's not really what I'm doing.
What I do is to install the ROM and then apply any system apk updates from the Play Store.
What I used to be able to do is to "integrate" the update into the system space with TiBu and eliminate the double space-taking. I keep a lot of apps on my phone so that saves some space for me.
Until/unless I can find a safe way to do what I want, I'll just live with the excess space-taking.

Hi, sorry to necro this thread but I just looked at Ultimate Backup Lite, and read about Pro's features, and did some Googling and I can't seem to find anywhere in Ultimate Backup to integrate system updates. Maybe it can be done indirectly by backing up the system apk's update, uninstalling it totally and then restoring only the updated version, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing the feature somewhere. In the meantime, I'll make another Nandroid and try just what I described.
With TB, the only system app update I ever have problems integrating are Google Play Services.
Thanks in advance for any insight.
Edit: well, that didn't work. Restored both exactly like they were, original apks and updates in data/app.

Too bad I didn't read all of this first.
After "integrating" with T/B, everything Google stopped working... Google Play Services, Inbox, Gmail, etc.
Believe it or not, I couldn't even delete and reinstall apps because the Play Store wouldn't even recognize my phone and I couldn't do the "locate" thing on the Play Store site to ring back the phone because apparently Location Services wasn't working.
After doing a couple of hours online for all of the error messages about Play Services unfortunately stopping, I TWRP'd the backup that I had made.
In fact, I wasn't able to re-download anything like Inbox, Gmail or Maps because believe it or not, my phone wasn't even recognized on the Play Store... it was greyed out with only my old Moto recognized.
Yet another reason for frequent backups when messing around with things that one unfortunately puts too much faith in before using.
So, long story short... there are apparently things in the original APK that need to be there in order for the update to work.
Everything is back to working order right now, unless I haven't discovered something lurking in the background.

Download Link2SD and on that, sort by Updated then press on an app, and "Integrate update to system" or something like that. I use it for Google updates too, it works perfectly, only Google Play Services FC if i integrate.. But give it a try after a backup I hope i helped!

I did exactly that but i found an issue... is it normal, that every time I integrate an update into the system rom, the available space is less? In my mind, the updated app should replace the one into the rom, so the available space in /system should be more or less the same. What am I missing...?
