Thank you so much! At least I can keep applanet & snappz ;). Thanks again!

Very happy that this worked for me. I removed the market links and then re-linked them as directed above (except I linked them all in one go). I had to do this a couple of times and restart the phone and now all of my installed apps are back.

Big thanks for the solution :thumbup:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] familymedia:
Is it still working fine for you, or did it break again after a while? I tried everything. No dice.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kersey:
It did break again the same evening for no apparent reason.

What I have now done, which at present is still working, is to 'force redo my backups' via Titanium and then re-link the apps with Market Doctor as it then showed that it was a new link rather than from a backup, so far 98% of my apps are showing as installed. There are a few which do show up in 'My apps' but are listed under 'not installed' even though they are :confused:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] familymedia:
I contacted Android Support about the issue. They basically indicated that I needed to be running carrier authorized operating system (stock ROM) before they can help me...

But anyhow, Ok, I finally got it to work without Android Support help...here's how:

I got hold of a different device that was running Stock ROM (Epic 4G SPH-D700). I signed on with my gmail account while my current device was shut down. Once my account fully synced and Market account seemed to be displaying fine on the SPH-D700, I then shut the phone down and started up my SPH-D710.

...and VOILA!!

Market is now working as it should on my device. Seriously, it seems that my account needed to re-calibrate itself on the google account server end or something like that...

Hope it stays fixed. Hope this helps anyone else resolve the same issue!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freemini:
This problem keeps me from using some ROMs, including KL3. After a hard reset, no apps at all installed Market doesn't shown any apps as purchased. KL1 and most ROMs work fine though. I'll keep using KL1 as it's pretty much the same thing as KL3 but it would be nice to know how to fix this problem. I read the thread too and I'll try the destroy all market links whenever I flash a rom that doesn't work.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ohyeahar:
I had the same problem just a few days ago. I seem to have fixed it and it has not happened again over the holidays.

I initially restored my apps via Titanium. Problem was there, so I tried the "Market Doctor" and "Destroy all Market links" several times. Also tried cleared data for the Market app.

Then I decided to give up. I then downloaded and installed a few apps. And suddenly noticed that the problem went away.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Willy.E:
Thanks , It works:D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkuehn10:
I have had this problem since I got my phone for Christmas.

Yesterday, I was using Titanium Backup to uninstall some of the "bloatware" apps on my Epic 4G Touch and I removed something called the Market Feedback Agent. I wiped the cache and dalvik cache and rebooted, and my market and apps were back to normal. Not sure if this will work for others, but it sure worked for me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brainwash1:
This is happening on my Droid Bionic, rooted but stock ROM. It is a fairly widespread problem.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techno79:
This has happened to me for the first time last week. I was using v8.0 of UltraToxic ROM and it was working fine for weeks. Market was working fine until I installed Viber. I couldn't see how installing Viber would cause this issue so I put it down to the UltraToxic ROM and a coincidence. However, today I have tried installing the latest UltraToxic ROM v8.0.2 and it works fine when I initially add my account but then it presents the same issue after a few minutes. I really don't know what is causing the issue as I've tried doing the various suggestions people have made (destroying market links using Titanium Backup, clearing data in Market etc).

I've been able to get by using AppBrain but it is frustrating that the standard Android Market is not working. Is it possible it is a Google server error?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] golcheck:
anybody knows the solution for this issue? Or at least a reason why this is happening?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techno79:
I have no idea but it is happening on my device. I'd been using my custom ROM for weeks with no problems and then it just happened all of a sudden. I've been using AppBrain which has allowed me to work around the problem but it isn't ideal. I'm waiting for the official ICS ROM so I can put that on (hopefully that'll sort it out).

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vrayhem:
It doesn't work for the Galaxy Note.

After this part: "1st FREEZE and WIPE DATA for each and every one of them and REBOOT" when I try this "After REBOOT go back to TB-->Menu-->Market Tools-->Destroy All Market Links" it refuses to perform the action and TB states that "Sorry, this feature requires the Android Market".

I have latest TB pro and firmware LA4.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mich0111:
@mrcasmir

Sorry but it doesn't work for me.

I have followed all your steps.

First time, I saw again my applications list, but after have re-linked via MybackupPro, they disappeared again.

Second time, after power defrozen, reboot and connexion with my google account, the application list is immediately empty.

An idea?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcasmir:
Ok, try to defrost market and destroy links. After you destroy links you should kill market and wipe data and then follow the last steps.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcasmir:
Don't link any system app and non market apps because they might be causing this issue for you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrcasmir:
Don't link any system app and non market apps because they might be causing this issue for you.

Another step is after defrozing, and add your account and then link few apps reboot and see if it disappears.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mich0111:
@mrcasmir

It doesn't work no more.

In fact, after last reboot and initializing my google account, a short list of applications reappear.

Of course, I prevent Google to reinstall my applications.

I close the Market and just to see I reopen it immediately.

Magic, my application list is empty again without doing anything.

I don't understand.

didnt worked :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] familymedia:
Did not work for me. Seemed to go OK until all the way at end I linked select Market Apps from MyBackup Pro.

2 things I did notice in my case:

1) I don't have Market Feedback Agent installed

2) I first tried freezing "Market" in TB, but it would not stay frozen

So when I power defrosted it only showed 2 apps: Google Services Framework and Market Updater...

Anyhow, it all looked like it was going to be fine until the "link to market" step in MyBackup Pro.

Yup!!! This worked for me. Finally!! Keeping my fingers crossed...lets see how long it last, but definitely a working solution for me. Thanks again!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techno79:
Mine has started to work again but not sure what I actually did to make it work again. I think the thing that made it work for me was using TB to destroy all market links and then linking them just for user apps. However, I don't think it started working immediately (possibly after a reboot). Anyway, glad it is working again now.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leon0602:
same damn problem with LP2 :mad::mad::mad:

i hope to fix it with LP6

someone else had the same problem with LP2?

I tried twice, same result

i'm going to try with LP6.. got the same trouble!!

edit: the solution of Vrayhem fix it for me too.

edit once again: works for all one day, now the market has the same trouble and it's not possible fix it :( why???????????

edit, last time: deleted the unofficial market.. everything works :):):)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poserina:
Tried this, it doesn't work. I finally found the problem myself (after buying backup pro). The problem was that an app from Amazon got linked to the market when I restored some apps after moving to a new ROM (using Titanium backup's market doctor). I finally detached that app from the market using Titanium backup and the Market works fine again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mich0111:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vrayhem:
This fix appears to be permanent as it has survived a hard reset and numerous reboots. Also the Android Market issues on the webpage have been sorted after the Google Services Framework data was cleared and I logged into the Android Market from the phone again.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabolander:
It is not a ROM version related issue, anyway.

I got this problem with KK5 (CheckRom RevoHD V4) with my SGS2, and sometimes occurs again with a LA4 based rom. (CheckRom RevoHD V6).

I quick fix it by clear all market links via TB, and relinking apps manually by TB or App Manager pro. But sometimes it fails to work ..

Hi,

I'm new to Android and an Acer A500 (obviously with this noob question!) and am confused with a lot of the terminology compared to the iPad (can I use that word on here ? :) ) I had for years.

Anyway, I flashed Taboonay 2.2 last night and re-installed all my apps again and was browsing when I read about kernels that can be flashed etc.

I've seen posts saying Harkon, Thor 3.9r3 and alsorts of other names / acronyms. Is there a 'one shot' idiot guide I can read through that explains it all in laymans terms and what rom/kernel chanegs what etc so I don't have to keep bugging you guys with stupid questions !

I'm quite happy so far, just I cant seem to find the latest .apk for snappz market as I want to search for a tweak that lets me put folders on the home screen.

As always - thatnks in advance for any help/guidance.

Cheers
[Acer Iconia A500] proxonic:
posted somewhere on xda by rschenck:

"The kernel in android is essentially just a customized Linux kernel. The ROM is basically the application layer and the framework. Usually ROMs include kernels, but you can flash a different compatible kernel.

Firmware usually refers to either all the basic software on your phone (minus the apps) or the ROM, csc and modem.

You can definetly flash a custom kernel onto a stock ROM, which will improve performance a great deal even without a custom ROM. Find instructions aplenty here on XDA."

Actually for tablets: some kernels are developed for stock ROMs, some for custom ROMs.
[Acer Iconia A500] cruise350:
I like your answer, a kernel is a kernel!! That is a good one. The OP asked for layman's terms so here is my attempt.

A kernel tells your device how to operate your hardware much like the CMOS instructions on a PC. So installing a custom kernel may overclock your cpu, tweak your wifi, adjust your memory usage, screen brightness, or many other options.

A ROM is the operating system with different versions currently our A500 is running Honeycomb 3.2.1 or what ever version the developer decided to tweak. Android comes in several flavors from Froyo 2.2, Gingerbread 2.3 & 2.4 to Honeycomb 3.0 to 3.2.1. Froyo and Gingerbread roms are mostly for phones and early less expensive tablets. Honeycomb was specifically written for tablets.

Custom Roms have been tweaked by a developer to remove bloatware, apps that no one uses, speed tweaks, added apps and functions, themes, and whatever else the developer can do.
[Acer Iconia A500] Animal_UK:
Perfect - THANKS :)
[Acer Iconia A500] benjieb:
hi what do you mean by "put folders on home screen ?

found an app you are happy with ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Animal_UK:
ive not found an app that will do it yet unfortunately.

I just want to have a 'folders' on the home page which when i click it opens up with the apps inside. Similar to a PC really. So all the games are in one folder, media in another etc.
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Yeah, that's what I use my five screens for, one for each category ;)

---------- Post added at 09:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 PM ----------

Actually the cmos talks to the kernel just like it does in any other OS. Other than that, good response ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] chasmanian:
Try ADW Launcher. You can do folders, a dock bar, resizable widgets and all sorts of stuff.
[Acer Iconia A500] cruise350:
There is an app in the market called FolderOrganizer and will do what you want. I don't know if it is compatible with Honeycomb or tablets so it may not show up but I had it on my phone for a while and it was a very easy way to group your apps in folders.
[Acer Iconia A500] Animal_UK:
This one was perfect for what i was looking for - thanks

Hi Guys,

I am currently running the CM7 ROM (7.1.0.6 Milestone-KANG) on my Milestone. I have used GOT OpenRecovery to install the same. But I am not able to understand how to wipe the battery stats as openrecovery doesn't seem to have an option for the same. Running the following command from the terminal emulator is aslo giving me errors:

mount -a

rm /data/system/batterystats.bin

mount -a This doesn't work. It gives an error 'etc/fstab': No such file or directory

Running the below command without mount gives me an Permission Denied error:

rm /data/system/batterystats.bin

I, like many others in the US, and Asia, and other countries where the GN is not released yet, can hardly wait to buy it. In fact, I am probably going to buy it this week. But as I found out, late though it is, that people importing phones dont get warranty in their countries. So, I want to create a thread that documents hardware issues that existing users have faced, so that when a new user gets his phone, he/she can quickly check if they have these issues. For example, I was an early adopter of the Asus Transformer, and we had a thread there that documented hardware issues for early adopters, like backlight bleeding, keyboard probs, bluetooth probs, gps issues, etc.

So, u lucky GN owners, please do chip in to inform us what hardware problems are currently there in the GN; however rare, we need it documented. Trust me, this helps a lot of ppl out!

I am at work now, but as soon as i get back, i will scour the forums myself to put up a list.

1. I will put the volume bug up first. Even though it has been fixed by software for many, its still an hardware issue.

2.screen reportedly has a reddish tint( unconfirmed)

3.Some camera lenses have been off center(unconfirmed)

4.There's a fizz pop in the speaker(unconfirmed)

3. once it found your S2, select it, and confirm the passcode on both device
