[q] apk help - Verizon Droid Charge

I downloaded beweather and some other paid apps to my phone and i installed them...but when i opened it up a hour later it said that i wasnt found in my market and told me to uninstall it....is there something i can do to fix this or is it something with Verizon?

Try uninstalling them then going back to my apps in the market and re-downloading them.

no i didnt buy the apps these are ones off the internet i downloaded

Kinda confused , you didnt get them from the market so you downloaded them to your computer or phone? Find the .apk you downloaded it to and re install. Ive had it where I had to uninstall the old version to install the update. Also you may need or I have atleast download astro file manager to install. May also have to enable something in settings. Yeah I know alot of crap to go through for an app. Just trying to give some ideas.

If you pirated them then some apps have built in anti piracy checks. There's nothing you can do except legitimately pay for it.

do you know if beweather is one that does??

[Q] What are all the stock apps on the D2G?

I have a new, unlocked and rooted D2G. I didn't use the stock phone for very long before I installed the Fission Rom. I didn't pay close attention to what was on the phone to begin with. I wasn't thinking clearly; I thought that it would just stay behind and I would have the option to uninstall it once rooted.
I realize most of it is considered bloatware. But I swear I saw a couple things that interested me. I can't remember what they were, though. Does anyone have a screenshot of the app drawer of a stock D2G? Or just a list? It would be much appreciated.
I sent a PM with a list

Thank you. Looks like it was Swype and Skype I was after.
Skype I already have downloaded. Swype, I looked for in the market and couldn't find. How can I get it on my phone?
also, this 'mobile 3g hotspot' thing looks interesting. Currently I tether using USB but maybe that is pointless. Is there a way to get this, or a comparable free app?
To use tethering besides VZW stock app, you need root access (which you probably have already). There are various tethering apps available on the Market.
Swype Beta for Android is available on Swype web site.
Wifi Tether is the app I use
Verizon removed these from the market I believe.
Google search "wireless tether for android"
First link, go to the "downloads" tab and download a stable release
Copy to your sd card and launch the file to install.
lost my widgets
I used Titanium Backup to back up my apps to my SD card, and then tried to uninstall the blockbuster app on my Droid 2 Global. It seems like at the same time that the user downloaded apps' widgets stopped functioning, and the phone will no longer create new widgets for the apps that i have downloaded either. Any help?
At about the same time, I used ROM Manager to try to back up my stock ROM, it rebooted my phone both times that I tried it, I don't know if that would have something to do with the widgets? Any help would be much appreciated

Lets Golf 2

I actually like and paid for this app but since rooting and installing GummyCharge I don't have it and can for the life of me figure out how to get a working copy. I could use some help.
Thanks,
Brad
Did you pay for it through the market or through the app?
Through the App. I can't find it listed on Market. Couldn't find it in V-Cast Apps either.
Try going to the game's website (http://www.gameloft.com/smartphone/lets-golf-2/) and logging in with whatever info you used during the purchase. They should have a record of it.
Even if I bought it through Verizon? It was billed to my Verizon Wireless account.
The developer should still have a record. They had to be the one to bill it to verizon and had to have known what number to bill to

The record of us buying it isn't the problem, the problem is that with the rom(gummy charged) it's taken out and also it's not in the toolbox, I want it too, I paid for it, I got my media hub back from the toolbox, but I can't find let's golf 2 either, maybe I can find an apk somewhere.

I have the exact opposite problem you have. I can't seem to get rid of it. Every time I uninstall it, it reappears in my settings>applications>manage applications list (but not in the apps page where you run everything) I can't actually play it though... and I don't know where the apk would be.
couldn't you pull it from one of the stock roms around. Isn't there a a full odin leak?
You could always just google around and find a lets golf 2 apk file...it shouldn't be too hard honestly.
I did find a copy and installed it. the only problem it didn't fit the screen. I don't know how to pull a file from a ROM.

You're not the only one with that problem lol. I've flashed roms, restored apps, and then go into manage apps and am like WTF! that wasn't on my phone when i created the backup.
I have the opposite problem as you, I want to get rid of it. I uninstall it but every time I reboot my phone it comes back...any suggestions? Already tried deleting it with titanium pro and still came back.

same problem here, thought i deleted it yesterday, but back again today?????
Bump. Just wondering if anybody has figured out how to delete this app - no matter what I try it keeps reinstalling itself. On gummy charged 1.91 EE4, with pbj kernel. I have tried tb uninstall, uninstall from task manager, freeze in tb. It is really annoying. Thanks for the help.

I have a thought. Go into System/App folder. See if it is there. If not look in the Data/App folder. I believe the name is something like com.gameloft.android.GAND.GloftLG2P.ML-1.apk. If it is rename it or delete it.
I deleted it out of the dalvik cache, the /data folder and the /preinstall folder. After a reboot, this is what shows up:

(dropbox as I don't know how to use the forum app to upload photos)
I can't find it in any more folders....it's super annoying...

Yea it isn't in there. I have never had thus happen with an app before. I deleted my titanium backup of it also. I guess I will just try and ignore it....

Has anyone figured out how to delete this game yet? Like other people the game just keeps coming back after I reboot. I'm sure there are other more important issues out there but if anyone knows how to get ride of this game I'd appreciate it.

Update - downloaded root explorer from the market
1) goto preinstall/apps
2) Delete the game
3) reboot
4)Delete from your backup aswell
Looks the game has been permanently removed. found the info on android central post by noobsickle

[Q] Detaching apps from market

Does anyone know how to detach an application from the Android Market without using Titanium Backup? I'm looking for an ADB or shell(preferred) method.
Are you trying to buy an app but it won't let you because it says you did not purchase it even though it says purchased? I had a copy of an app I didn't pay for but when I went to purchase it it already said purchased. When I tried installing it, it said I did not purchase it. No matter what I did, it wouldn't detach. I uninstalled, used titanium and still showed purchased.
I went to settings, manage applications, and chose Market. Then I hit uninstall updates. I opened the Market and it was the old version. I could then purchase the app. Afterwards, the Market updated itself automatically.
Hope this helped
Btw, this belongs in general.

No, I wish I had a "simple" problem. What I have is Pandora unlimited from one of the XDA developers. It keeps trying to update Pandora but I don't want to lose the unlimited. I'm also wondering if it will allow me to delete apps on the rezound if I untie them from the market.
Other Reasons
There are other reasons to need this, including if you took an Amazon App of the Day, and now the Market wants to tell you ALL THE TIME that there is an update, which will fail.
What you can do on the update notice is click the "X" and a menu will ask you if you want to NEVER UPDATE THIS APP, which should be your choice.

For the first part, I am not sure...
For the second part...
You could do it with ADB but it would not be permanent. Meaning you would have to do it on each reboot.
use something like...
"adb pm uninstall xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxx"
Im not sure if that is the correct syntax so double check that.
But thats the closest I can think of to do what you want to do
I would also ask NilsP. He is pretty knowledgeable with the Package Manager.

Issue installing Root Browser Lite 2.1 - apk request

Hello everyone,
I have been trying to install "Root Browser Lite" version 2.1 from the Google play store, but for some strangely odd reason, i am having a weird issue.
Everytime i try to install it, it says: Cannot install, Inefficient Storage available.
That would obviously mean that i dont have any space left in the Application partition of the internal memory, but to my suprise I do indeed have plenty.
I have over 100mb left. And i can install applications that are over 15mb without a problem, litterally right after trying to install Root Browser.
Its only a mere 1.3 mb download and cant be too much more extracted..
Ive uninstalled applications, cleared my cache, rebooted, among other things and still cant get this one application to install.
Maybe if i install the .apk from my sdcard i could install it properly..? So could someone who has this application be kind enough to share their .apk?
Or we could somehow try to figure this out. But like i said it hasnt been an issue with anything else at all..
Also, so you know and need not ask, ive tried nearly all other file explorers right now, and so far they have all been really lame in my opinion. Currently I like the MIUI port explorer, but im constantly getting force closes so I need a change. Root Browser is really nice and is a file explorer I plan to stick with. (If i can get it anyway...)
I have an older version, but I know he rebuilt the whole app in the recent update so I'd prefer v2.1
Hope some body can help me out.
Id really greatly appreciate it.
Thanks for your time.
Have you tried pushing it through adb?
I have not. As I am not sure how..
Wouldnt I need the apk to do so?
Ohh yeah, you'll need the apk...
There was an extension for google chrome (pc) that allowed you to download apk's to comp from play store...
Just search around, I don't remember its name...
Omg I made a big mistake I meant Root Browser not root explorer... gosh that was dumb...

Does it make a difference?
They serve the same purpose
It does indeed make a difference. I think root explorer is absolutely horrible imo, but I am specifically looking for root browser.
Root browser = sleek and sexy with better functionality
Root explorer = clunky, ugly, dumb icon, fails with its functionality, not much preview thumbnail support, extraction support is a joke, and did I mention ugly?
Just saying id hate for someone to go through the trouble to get the one I absolutely don't want ya know?
Well, you can try file manager by rythm software, for a change...
I can pretty much believe you'll like it...
As regards for root browser, I don't use play store, so am not able to lay my hands on the latest version...
If I get it, I'll pass on the apk of the lite version...
Btw, have you found the chrome extension yet?

Thanks,
So I installed File Manager. I like it, its pretty nice. But I also managed to get Root Browser Installed as well finally, so I am happy about that. So I have kept both of them.
As for the chrome extension, no I didn't yet, because this is the first time I am seeing your post! I wonder how that happened! I was using the XDA Premium application on my phone to post in this thread with you, and for some reason that post didn't show up until I just not visited on my Computer... hmm. weird... But thats really cool, I will get to searching for that right now. I started using Firefox again, with the latest update, since I been using chrome for so long.. But now I am using both, so I will definitely check that out. Do you want to know the name of it when I find it?
And I noticed you mentioned you dont use the Google Play Store for your apps, So what do you use then?
I use other market alternatives like 1mobile market (only free apps here) and others...
I also google around for stuff...
If I still don't find it, I install play store, download apk, and then again remove play store...
Yes please, if you do find that chrome extension, send me along a link

Do you happen to still have the root browser 2.1.0 apk? I'd love a copy. (2.1.1 is giving me issues) Thanks.
ROM toolbox Pro
ROM toolbox pro has root browser and many other features. I can give you a copy of the .apk. I will upload it in this post.
