Restored Apps not able to update?

I have pulled some apk's off of my phone, so that I can share them, and uninstall and reinstall them as I please. The only issue I'm having with them is very small. I'm not able to update the apps after installing them from estrong's file explorer because they don't show up as "downloaded" in the app market. Is there any way to load them so that they are able to be updated through the market? Thanks in advance for the help!!

The paid version of Titanium Backup preserves apps market links, this is the only backup app that I have seen to do this.

That's cool.. I pulled the apks off manually.. I'll have to check out the Titanium Backup paid version to use from now on.. I wonder though, if Titanium Backup has found a way to load those apps back in, shouldn't there be a way that we can do it?

[Q] Removing an apk file from an update run

I have recently used unleash the beast on my captivate and it works great.....Thanks for that. The only thing that doesn't work in the wifi tethering. I click on it and it won't work. My question is....how can I remove the wifi tethering app created my unleash? I bought root explorer and I have astro file manager but I don't see which file to delete. Any help with this would be great. Thanks

Use Titanium Backup, its free from the market.

How? Can't I just find the file and delete it?

[Q] Can you not download from the browser?

I am unable to download files from my browser. Simple as that. I can not figure out why, I've tried about:debug to see if there was an option I was missing but no. Please help as I am all about downloading roms/apks/zips one the go. Any ideas?

I'm having the same exact problem.

No issues here, downloading .apk files from getjar.com just fine.
You might/want/try to install a file manager like ES File Explorer or Astro, and it might work.

Wow really? Well all you said was you can't d/l that's it.
Try going into Astro and enabling file downloads then.
ANYWAYS.. *I* have no issues, and didn't have to install Astro and enabling anything.

Not every download is working, I can download the same file using Delphine HD.

Astro did it. THANK YOU
Its because when you're not rooted the browser only downloads your basic files. that's my guess anyway.

Astro automatically installed from my titanium backup when I first rooted. Didn't work so I tried uninstalling and reinstalling.. Still nothing. I don't have astro on my N1 but have absolutely no problems downloading a link right from stock browser. Whenever I click on the link it appears to start the dl but says download unsuccessful.

Just having astro installed isn't enough... you have to go into its settings and enable file downloads.

I'd also grab an app called "Download Crutch Lite."
It's not avaliable on the market for some reason, but a quick google search should turn up the APK.

Affirmative, then it should work like a charm. I was downloading all kinds of things last night (not really, but I experimented with three different file types, .rar, .zip, and .apk, and they all worked seamlessly.

Well yes. Thank you but of course I have done that. I'm still unable to download from the browser using the browser. Wait... WAS still unable to dl from the browser. I feel like I've never owned another android! lol I restarted my phone

Haven't been having any issues downloading... is it a certain file type? Have a link i can try? So far I've only downloaded various *.pdf's and the firefox *.apk, both which worked fine without any apps or setting tweaking.

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR INPUT! I really appreciate it

Anyone try the ICS Music app yet?

I got it to install after uninstalling the old then rebooting, but i get fc's when trying to play music. Anyone else have better luck than me? Im on prime 2.02 btw. Oh and to get it to sync you have to clear data once or twice until it asks you to sync your gmail acct.

Doesn't work... Apparently its honeycomb in general, I checked the Xoom and Galaxy Tab forums and they're having the same FC problems as we are.

I did, it's pretty nice...the layout of the playlist (if you have less that 5) is kind of weird...It looks a lot like the old one, but smaller icons and text...
latest Prime if that helps anybody...

i have the same problem, fc when trying to play music.....now the question : has someone get the original HC music apk to revert to the first one ? Just to avoid revert to nandroid or reinstall rom...thanks

Here it is. Pulled this out of Revolution rom. I think you will have to uninstall the ICS app and then reinstall the stock app with Titanium Backup in order for it to work.

Work around for the FC's, just hit shuffle all and profit

Wouldn't exactly call that a workaround... yes, you can shuffle, but anything else is still causing forced closes.

thanks a lot Getlaid, but i didn't manage to install it using titanium back up......(i'm using the free version), and a normal installation abort.....

Try deleting /system/app/Music2.apk with a root capable file explorer like ES File Explorer or Root Explorer, reboot, and then replace with the stock Music2.apk

Thanks! I think the power is in the reboot! Worked nicely afterwards.

I got it to install, but I don't see the login option in settings for music beta. (
Edit: fixed by clearing data, force stop, then launch.

OK try using titanium backup to reinstall YouTube. This should work if you used titanium backup to back up the file first.
