[Help]Unable to search for apps in Market - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am not able to search for any apps in the market.
Usually ended up with 'no results'
When I attempted to install the app from website on my desktop, it's greyed out for TF101, but they are available for SGS 2.
The above error only appear recently, when I switch rom.
Can anyone help? Driving me nuts :/

Hi!
Had similar problem with my p-1010. I got it and logged in first time overseas in some god forgotten country. Nothing helped. Now my kid has it and there is absolutely no problem with it. But all the time I was able to search, download, purchase apps for my SGS?
I asked for help from google staff. Their answer was: (keep in mind, those shortcuts and paths are for SGT P-1010. Yours are probably different. But procedure is the same)
- Power cycle the device
- Turn Airplane mode on and off. This turns off and on Wi-Fi. To do so go:
Settings > Wireless & networks. Check Airplane mode. Wait a minute or two.
Uncheck Airplane mode.
- Delete and re-establish your Wi-Fi network. To get it back, you will
need the security type and SSID for your wireless network. To do so go:
Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings > Wi-Fi. Uncheck Connected
to "your network here".
Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi networks. Tap your network. Write
down the security type. Tap Forget.
Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi networks. Tap Add Wi-Fi network.
Enter the SSID and security type for your network. Tap Save.
Connect to your network.
If the issue persists, I recommend you perform a factory reset on your
device. Please note that this will reset your device to its original
state. While your media content (photos, music, etc.) will not be deleted
from the SD card, applications and their related data will be uninstalled.
Before the factory reset, make sure that your contacts are synced to your
Google account by logging into Gmail from a computer and verifying if your
contacts appear there. If your contacts are not synced, then I recommend
updating your sync settings at Settings > Accounts and Sync and choosing
either AutoSync or touching the account you would like to sync and
choosing "Sync Contacts."
Along with syncing contacts, please back up any important application data
and/or settings by navigating to Settings > Privacy and selecting "Back
up my data'"and "Automatic restore."
To perform a factory reset:
1) Go to Home > Menu > Settings > Privacy (or Phone storage; depends on
the device)
2) Press "Factory data reset"
3) Press "Reset phone" (or "Reset tablet")
After you perform the factory reset, make sure you sign into your device
with the same primary Google Account you were using before. If you have
any questions or concerns before performing the reset, or if doing so does
not resolve the issue, please let me know so I can continue to investigate
the issue.
Maybe this will help. If not, try Chomp.

thanks!
The steps did not help much, but chomp sure did. guess i have to stick to chomp for now.

That's because the apps that you are looking for are not available for your Transformer.

[Q] Can't install apps from market

I can't download apps from the app-market, when the downloas should start it does'nt. It stop at the message "starting download".
Zwhen I downloas a apk file from the web, I can downloas and install the application as normal.
Hello there!
I think that I have a solution for all of you. I had a market problem with stuck on downloading apps on 3g. I've tried almost any solution find on internet.
So. Go to Menu -> Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names and tap on the selected APN. Erase proxy number from it. Save. Restart. Voila.
Regards.
P.S. If it doesn't work, you can easily put proxy back. It is needed only for wap.
Sorry! Doubling again.
It didn't work, I cannot download connected with wifi either. I git a x10 mini pro.

[Notice] Google account info for ROMS Please Read.

I've noticed that there are a lot of users that are flashing ROMs and reporting FCs (Force Closes) after getting their accounts set up so I figured
I would share some information that will not only help the DEVs in new reports from users but also help users enjoy all of the work put forth by
the Devs.
This will cover the Google account settings and help understand some of the features that these settings have and how they effect ROMs once
they have been installed.
Google account auto Sync and App back-Up/Restore does just as it says but when using ROMs with different base versions such as 2.2.1 and 2.3.4
and all in between can have a bad side effect unless you set them up the right way. In "Settings" there are two allowances that you
have to make.
1. "Background Data ( Covers Applications can sync, send, and recieve data at any time. )"
2. "Auto-Sync ( Applications sync data automatically. )"
3. "Backup Data and Settings ( Backs up applications and system settings. )"
These work great for email, contacts, and calander accounts but Google actually backs up more than that. System files for previous settings and profile
settings also get backed up which can cause force closes and ROM errors if restored to a ROM using a different base version of these settings.
If you were using Froyo (2.2.1) and these two settings were on then its safe to say the permissions and settings from this profile were backed up in
anticipation that something may go wrong with your device, when you go to a different base version (ROM) such as Gingerbread (2.3.4) Google doesn't
check to see if the base version has changed when you first set up your phone (after flashing a new ROM) and restores the previous settings for those
accounts. Now if you just flashed something different than you had before this will cause "Force Closes" so lets get down to how to bypass the feature.
Most ROMs require you to reboot twice before setting up accounts or anything else which is correct but once the ROM has loaded for the second time it
may ask you if you want to log into your account(s) before continuing on, you want to skip through all of the steps including Wifi set up.
1. Go to settings.
2. select "Backup Data and Settings"
3a. Disable "Backup My Data" and "Automatic Restore"
3b. " If your a flash junkie like I am keep these settings turned off other wise you will have issues later"
4. Back out and go to "Accounts and Sync Settings".
5. Disable "Back Up Data and Auto Sync".
6. Back out and now go and sign into your accounts but don't sync them, just sign in.
7. go to each account and sync Contacts, Mail, and Calander manually.
After all of the accounts are done you can go back into "Accounts and Sync Settings" under General Sync Settings and enable them. This will bypass the app sync
feature Google uses for these accounts. There is also a way to disable JUST the app and system files in your Google account so it no longer saves system settings
and I'll update the thread at a later date.
I hope this helps with some of the issues people are having with various ROMs.
Edit: There are Apps that are saved by this method by Google, system settings, app settings and data of both which can also cause problems with the way a ROM runs and is managed. Be aware of the last time you saved prior system/app data and avoid these settings from being installed into the next ROM.

[Q]Remove Google Backup

How to remove the applications you begin to install after each hard reset using Google backup&restore?
I'm not talking about the Contacts or Gmail being pulled in (that's fine),I just don't want the apps & settings
I've tried the various resets (with backup turned off), but nothing gets me back to a blank, clean phone.
Is there a way to remove?
Thanks.
Oddly enough, this never works for me anymore. Contacts and whatnot come back, but applications never self reinstall since about six months ago. I always assumed since I have to agree to the terms and conditions of the market, it won't start running until I've done so. No real idea though, if anything, don't add your Google info in the initial setup. Set up your settings and whatever else you need to do, then add your Google account info in Settings > Accounts. From there, if it starts to redownload everything, just cancel them before they have a chance to finish. You could also try force closing the market. I did that once when it started to download my apps, it got one app through and quit the rest.
I've checked the online market, there's no settings in there. Hope you figure it out.
When you add the Google account, at the very end, there is this option "Keep this phone backed up with my google account". Unselect that option.
Untick "Automatic restore"

Issue with lockscreen

I recently had to add my corporate email account to my S3. I was required to add a PIN or password, which I wasn't real fond of, but I understood why so I did it.
Now, having been issued a work phone, I do not need my email on my personal device anymore so I removed it. However, I cannot remove the need for a PIN/password.
If I go into my lock screen settings and attempt to change to a different unlock type it notes that they are disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage.
As a result I have removed all applicable device administrators (minus Tasker and Cerberus), cleared device credentials and removed my SD card as it notes that it is encrypted.
All of this has been to no avail as I still cannot change my lock screen type. Any suggestions on what is causing this issue? I asked our IT company and they said "Call Verizon." Um.... thanks?
Thanks for the input guys!
Bump. I would hate to have to wipe my phone to fix such a silly issue.
Halp.
Did you install something called device policy? We had to do this through our school email in order to be able to get our email on our devices. I also had the problem of not liking a security lock screen so I removed it. I don't know if this helps or not, but here are the steps, according to my school ITS website.
On your device, go to Settings > Security
Press Select device administrators
Uncheck Google Apps Device Policy
Press Deactivate.
Go to Settings > Applications and click the Google Apps Device Policy app
Press Uninstall to remove the application

I appreciate the input by unfortunately did not have Google Apps device policy under my device administrators or installed applications.
I was however able to fix this by going to Settings > Security > Encrypt external SD card and unchecking encrypt. I was only allowed to uncheck this value after creating a 6 digit password though.
Hope this helps somebody. Thanks!

Google Sync Problems

Hey guys, I have been experiencing a problem since yesterday: Although syncing is activated (I tripple checked!) my google account does not sync anymore as long as I use mobile data (other apps like google chrome are able to use mobile data, however, so I am able to surf the internet). This also means that I don't get any emails in push from my gmail account. As soon as I switch to WI-FI, syncing works flawlessly, emails are pushed without any delay. Manual syncing works (pulling down in the gmail app or via the options in the google account settings on the phone).
Another weird thing is the signal status icon. When using WI-FI it is white, as soon as I switch to mobile data, it turns orange (I'm using nova launcher).
So I decided to completly wipe the phone and then reinstalled CM 11s 33R which I downloaded directly from the CM-page. I reinstalled all the apps afresh which means I don't think I carried any wrong settings from my last ROM over to the newly installed one.
Anybody got an idea what the reason could be that there is no syncing anymore and how I can resolve this?
Hi,
im facing the same problem since yesterday morning. I've recognized the exact same issues with the same situation.
As long as im in WLAN all is good. As soon as i am on mobile-data network push is not working anymore. I has been working before fine, but till yesterday it stopped. I didnt change anything in the configuration.
Very strange. I would be very happy if anybody has a glue on how to fix that.
I've also made twice a reset (once per TWRP, and another reset with android reset function) but both didnt help to get rid of that problem.

Push and sync works again with my device. Also, the orange color in the Signal Status is gone and it is White again.
Found something in the OPO-Forum (thanks to gabriel3714):
Go to:
google.com /Settings /security
under section "account permissions" find "apps and websites" and click "view all" then try and revoke access to you OPO and any other items that shouldn't be there. Then restart your phone.
If anybody still has Troubles, here are some other things to try which were sent to me in an email by Matt Oli:
If Sync isn't working when you're using your data, here are a few things to check for:
•Make sure that Background data is enabled◦Phone settings> Data Usage> Scroll down to Gmail and make sure that "Restrict background data" is not selected.
•Disable Power saving mode
•Clear your App's cache and data◦Open Phone settings> Select Application manager> Swipe to "All"> Choose Gmail> Clear cache and data
•Limit your folder size◦Open Gmail via a desktop> Settings> Forwarding and POP/IMAP> Next to "IMAP access" select "Limit folder size"
•Try Unsyncing your Gmail account temporarily. Try this a few times.◦Settings> Accounts> Google> Select your account> Uncheck Gmail> Check Gmail
•Resetting IMAP◦Gmail> Settings> POP/IMAP> Disable POP & IMAP> Save Settings> Re-enable IMAP> Save Settings
•Remove Gmail Account and setup again◦Phone Setting> Accounts> Google> Select you email account> "Remove account"
◦Re-establish account.
