Anyone seen this issue with JD?:-
I installed JD free then ultimate. Couldn't get it to work right, so uninstalled ultimate by dragging it into trash.
Went to market to reinstall. On the MyApps list down the left of the screen it says JD ultimate is NOT installed. When I click on install it NEVER moves to installed, even if free is installed too. If I look under the details for JD ultimate it doesn't say install, it says 'open' so the market seems to think it is both installed and not installed!
When I download the free version it says I have the ultimate (paid) version, but after I choose the first profile to use it never lets me choose another (IE I could choose extreme which is a paid profile, but cannot switch to even the free profiles and all the extra option tabs go missing!)
I have no idea if honeycomb has messed up the uninstall, or whether JD is not compatible with Honeycomb yet.
Thanks!
EDIT : Nevermind, a factory reset and reinstall cured all.

I use advanced task killer and minutes later I see MP3 Store, and Messages running. Before I saw a few others. Are they set to start running in memory for some reason? Not sure if they eat up much juice, but I wonder if I can make a list of certain ones and disable their start up somehow. Is there a task killter that blocks startups?
same here we need something to block these apps
Messages is required to recieve MMS (Even if you use handcent or chomp or something else as your main client). We tried removing that once in the hero forums and it caused ALL sorts of problems and force closes)
The mp3 store is usually ok to remove though.

Thanks codemonk,
Do you know that setting in advance task killer is that says "auto kill level"? It is set to disable now, but what does it do? Thanks.

I'm not sure...I avoid task killers as a rule (I installed one earlier to test something for an earlier thread and uninstalled afterwards once I got my info).
http://geekfor.me/faq/you-shouldnt-be-using-a-task-killer-with-android/ - This should provide some good info on it.
The better solution, especially for apps that you don't intend on using, is uninstalling the app (there's a whole thread talking about which ones are safe to remove).

yeah, that is a great idea. I imagine if I wanted it back I could just install it again. Thanks Codemonk.
Why do you need those apps not running? Android will kill them if it needs more memory.
Why are people obsessed with killing stuff? It's not like your phone runs better with 192mb of free memory vs 163mb...
it actually does, as well as lets the battery last longer since it isnt using as much processing power

Let the phone run for a good 12 hours. I was down to 42MB free basically idling and only using Handcent. Killed a few tasks and back up to 175 and everything is snappy again.
I don't like having to use a task killer, I didn't have to with my N1.
maybe there will be an app like Scotty for windows 7. I check and a bunch of bloatware starts on it's own. It's all marketing bs. When there is a nice root stripped down, with all the nice stuff enabled I'll do that.
download startup auditor from the market. great little app to select and unselect which apps you want to load when the phone powers up. only costs $0.99 usd

So if I leave it to no apps, will it load up with 0 apps running? Will it also prevent apps from randomly starting after phone is already on? Sounds like a nice app.
Unless startup auditor disables the service there is a list of apps that will randomly start up at times. I went into the application settings and apps like MP3 store don't have an option to uninstall.
I have used task killer to kill all apps and within minutes some start again.
"thecodemonk" why do you not use a task killer. I have only had an Android phone about 24 hours now and got a lot to learn.
First thing being how to enable tethering.
I have mine set to "safe" and it auto closes things when screen goes black.
Make sure you "IGNORE" certain apps... like the clock or else your alarm wont work... I almost over slept
I have the following set to ignore:
Messages
Handcent
clock
gmail
Mort Music player

Check out the application "Autokiller." This comes with preset values (optimum, moderate, aggressive, etc.) so that apps will be killed off once your free memory drops below a certain point. This app works great, but it does REQUIRE root to function and must be rebooted to finish applying the settings. Also lists all apps, processes, and services which can be killed off manually as well.

I've been trying to find AutoKiller, yet I can't find it in the market. Is it here on the forums?

It is in market, search "autokiller". Requires root access, but I can confirm it is working fine.
Wanted to add that I am annoyed by programs that I never intend to use running in the background. From recovery I used Android Commander to quickly select and delete every .apk in /system/app that I never wanted to see again.
Helo guys saw this topic and was over at androidcentral and saw this article which talks about an app that would kill any app that autostarts.
won't let me post links as i'm a new user, but go to androidcentral and look for the article about the app autostarts or just google "autostarts"
using task panel to kill the "junk" like amazon and mp3 store- also any program that doesnt attach itself to things like facebook or messages - i use skyfire so i have set that to autokill but leave the "internet" running..
i also use this to switch between apps running.. having to hit back back back or even going to home then program list then finding it is a long process.. for example ...
i get a handcent message - go into the threaded sms- type and im done - holding down the home screen doesnt pop all the programs up - therfor i set task panel up to stay on my status bar and hit it then go to the program i want.
I have done the Market fix, am running TNT light 4.2 and when I try to find certain apps on the market either through the Market app or from Appbrain, I get either " No matches found" on Market or " the requested Item could not be found" on Appbrain. I am signed into both and am able to download some apps, but not others. I have done the fix using Titanium three times. I think I am missing something simple.
I never use the titanium fix. Just open up market, exit, go to settings > applications > system applications > Market clear cashe then force stop. Go to google services framework, clear data, force stop. exit out of settings. Open the market You should get an error when you open it up. Reboot your g tab. Allow it time to load and get an internet connection. You should have the full market. If you get an error again you may have to redo the steps. There have been times I have had to redo the steps two or three times. Follow the directions to the letter.
Thanks,
I did it without the Titanium fix and it works perfectly. Being new to the Droid world, this is very wierd compared to my WM days.
try this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7l-nySibzeA
works everytime in my vegan5.1
sometimes, dont know why, i lose acess to all apps in market... i do that again and works all the time
Moved to general
I am pretty sure there is no such thing as 'full market' on the g-tablet. The fix, whether the titanium or regular fix gets you some apps. The mahimahi build.prop fix gets you even more apps (tv.com was always my standard.) But there are a bunch of apps that will not show... Firefox would be one for me. Now that the market is available on the web, all the apps are available, they just aren't available to be downloaded on g-tab.

Is there a documented way somewhere to, as an example, modify our build.prop file to look like a Galaxy Tab or Galaxy S phone? I have had a hell of a time side loading some apps that the market wont let me download normally (like Facebook) but that work fine on the tablet.
I think I have the market working fine for what I am "supposed" to be able to see and download (I can see TV.com as an app for example).
Would be nice though to just have access to everything and be able to choose what I want and if it doesn't work very well I can just uninstall it. Maybe that's wishful thinking, I don't know. Would love to be able to "spoof" my phone to be a Galaxy Tab, or S though and any help to that end would be greatly appreciated.
Hello,
For some reason with my Thunderbolt the apps in the market are not being backed up and re-installing themselves. On my Droid X whenever I would flash a ROM and go into market, all the previously installed apps would be queued up and re-install themselves. So naturally when I got the TB I was expecting this to happen, which it didn’t. I went ahead and re-installed all the apps for a couple days before I had a chance to go through the somewhat lengthy process of rooting. Well, got around to rooting last night and hoping that the apps would back themselves up now thinking maybe they would only re-install on the same device I flashed a ROM with no luck. Anyone have an idea of what could preventing this from happening on this phone?
When I look on market.android.com it shows the apps installed so I can’t re-install them from the comfort of the web. Any ideas?
Thanks
I had this problem before too. What I did was go into Settings - Applications, and find "Market". I then cleared the cache and the data. I cycled power to the phone and the next time I went into the Market app it added all my previously purchased and free apps correctly. Hope this helps!

I dont think the market does an automatic backup. And the history it keeps is sketchy at best, it looses alot of apps i had installed. Appbrain would be a better option, it doesnt autoreinstall, but will let you do batch installs. Even better would be a true backup app like Titanium backup, it backs up your apps and assosiated data. But with your current setup, you can tell the market to install the app again, it will work, even if it thinks it is already installed.
Can you please help me?
Since yesterday my Nexus S (i9023 - rooted but with stock room) start getting trouble running the Market.
first it started to become really slow and the images didn't loaded and now no images also but on my apps only 3 appear and the appear as if they are not installed.
Do you know if this could be some type of "virus" or an incompatibility with some other app?
Many thanks for your help.
Probably not a virus, just go to application settings and clear the market data
It worked.
Thanks!
Also, if you use Titanium Backup, and longclick an application, there's an attach to market feature you could always try. (or detatch if u don't want the pesky updates).
Problem:
I have been literally bogged by this message in market "this app is not compatible with your device" message literally for every other app I frequently use. Nearly every app at some update or the other is starting to give this message, forcing me either search for the apk on net, or go through the painful process of setting dpi to 240, reboot, install, set back at 200, reboot.
Solution:
Last night, most unexpectedly I found the solution. Not sure how many use it, but based on the feedback on the app in app store, I thought maybe not many know about it.
Disclaimer: I am NOT marketing any app here. Am only sharing info 'cos it worked great for me.
1. Install the app "LCD Density Modder Pro" from market. There are two versions - free and paid. Install the paid one. Its only a dollar.
2. Set it to whatever DPI you want. You could do this within the app, or manually using root explorer.
3. Click on "market compatibility issues" button on the bottom part.
4. For Infuse 4G, select "HDPI - 240" in dropdown, and download modded market.
5. Install the downloaded modded market.
Till here, its all a walk in the park.
6. Clear market data.
7. Go to TiBu paid version, and freeze the market updater (this will stop market updating by itself).
8. Reboot.
I had to do this cos "freeze market updater" option did not work in the app.
Hiccup:
A little hiccup though, when I rebooted, it again came up with the issue. I don't know how. I went and cleared the market data, and opened market again, and this time it worked well.
I am not sure how it would go if market updater wasn't frozen. You might need to reapply the modded market after every reboot, and clear data. I am not sure of this part though. Plus I presume most of the guys (girls too) here have TiBu paid version.
Got a reply from the developer that he updated the app, and has an updated modded market that would never auto update itself. Problem solved.
This would take step 7 off from above steps.
Note: For anyone with any questions, let me clear up, I did this and this is working for me.
This would be nice but I have a custom market. I don't want the boring stock green one

You could simply theme the market in it, but wouldn't recommend distributing it 'cos it is a modded one sold with pro version of the app. And trust me, its a lot of pain killer. I am able to see all the apps in market now, even with my DPI at 200.
