Problem with multi DPI Play Store - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I have 3.10.9 Play Store.. Flashed the multi DPI JB version. Works fine for a day or so then it'll revert back to an older version ( 3.9.something I think) and more than half of my apps won't show up under My Apps. It is fixed by reflashing the multi DPI Play Store zip, but I don't understand why it is even happening. Is there a permanent fix or anything I can try?

Which zip did you flash?
I had that happen to me once yesterday, but it switched on me from inverted back to normal (fixed after a reflash and hasn't happened again).

It is called Multi DPI Play Store for JB.zip. I think I found it in the int'l GSII forum but according to OP it was tested on many different devices and comments by other users reflected that.

This one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839871
That's the one I use and other than the 1 problem I had yesterday (that only cropped up after a TiBu restore) I really haven't had any issues.

That's definitely the one.. I'm so confused then.. Maybe it's an issue with the rom, although I doubt it (SlimBean).. What rom are you on?

Slim Bean...
Definitely not an issue with Slim Bean, unless you are flashing an addon app after you're flashing the multi dpi play store.
Though, the play store that comes with Slim should be multi dpi...

Did it to me again, twice today, and I had to reflash the Play Store zip a total of 4 times.. Something's up, and I think I'm just going to reflash the rom and start over and see if it fixes it

Let me know if you find a fix. I've got my own issues that I'm trying to work through, but I'm interested in hearing what you find.

Reflashed the rom and gapps, rebooted, let the rom settle, then set up my Google account. Opened Play Store, made sure I wasn't having any issues, then closed it and cleared data for Play Store and Google Services Framework. Booted into recovery and flashed multi DPI Play Store.. Worked fine until I rebooted the phone an hour later and now I have 3.9.x instead of 3.10.x. I don't understand why this is happening but it's driving me crazy.

May play store doesn't recognize the. 10 version as legit so it goes ahead and updates it. Have you deactivated auto updates in the playstore settings!

Please tell me where on earth I would find that, since clearly I'm losing my mind..

Just open the play app. Hit the phones menu button. Then under settings uncheck auto update!

That has nothing to do with auto-updates for the actual Play Store app, it just disables auto-updates to downloaded apps/games

For anyone who might be wondering.. I noticed that I still had the Play Store 3.9.x apk in /system/app along with PhoneSky.apk which is (correct me if I'm wrong) the modified Play Store apk. I deleted the 3.9.x apk and rebooted, and since then I've rebooted 6 times or so and I can still see all my apps in the Play Store and the version is still 3.10.x.

I know that you said that you cleared the cache, but did you "clear data" as well? I think this is what I did last time mine acted up.
same issue here, I never use the market to look for an app updates anymore instead I tried to use App Update Notifier and it works just fine.

Clear data then restart the phone. This has fixed every market issue I've had yet.

Used the SGS tool script to reset the market and now its working fine again. Thanks for the suggestions everyone
this happens to me all the time... idk why
Have you tried downloading a small free app from the market? You can uninstall it right after, to see if it works. Whenever I flash a new ROM and restore apps with TiBu, the market doesn't see my restored apps. But, when I download a new app, the market then recognizes my restored ones. It's worth a shot and will only take a minute.
Edit: Sorry, didn't see you found out already, you're way is probably better too. >.<

Xda app keeps disappearing

My xda premium app keeps disappearing for some reason maybe its AT&T uninstalling it. Is anyone else having the same issue? I'm currently on non rooted stock rom.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk
Lol no att is not uninstalling it. By ut keeps disapearing what exactly do u mean you know there is more then 1 home screen right? Is it possible it on one of your other home screens? Did u open the app drawer and scroll through your apps and not see it as well?
I've had this happen myself the past few days ever since I started messing around with some roms. For me, I'd go to click on the app shortcut and it would say it doesn't exist. I'd have to go back into Market and reinstall. Very odd issue and its happened around 3 times.
The last time it happened was when I went back to stock like I am now. I am still rooted though.

Nope. Just had this issue pop up again after I did a nand restore from stock. I couldn't access the app, it no longer showed anywhere on the phone (/system/app, Applications, etc.) and yet the Market showed it was installed. I ended up having to install the free app and then uninstall that to then reinstall the premium one.
Not had an issue like this with any other app.

Use tibu.
Uninstall that pos known as Gallery.
Download this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder&hl=en
run it and enjoy.
Then, call Samsung and tell them to pay Chinese government hackers to steal codes from this independent developers. And then release their own kanged version
Its happened on all the roms i've been on, zeus tr, emancipation, legend..

Google Now on cm10

I was wondering why my version of Google search doesn't include Google now (with the cards). I have a nightly of cm10 installed with the 10-11 gapps.
My friend has a full version with cm10 on an HTC phone. Is it just the current development of cm10 on the s3 doesn't support the cards?
Thanks
It has google now. You must have messed up. Check the settings in the google search menu. You might not have opted in yet
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
I've actually noticed this as well. I can make a card come up if I search for like local weather but there's no place to set locations or favorites and cards never randomly come up for me
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
You have a nightly with gapps that are a month old? That could be your issue. If you're running a month old rom, then you most definitely will be missing features. I'd advise you to update your rom, and also you can update google search from the play store as well.
Google now updates through the play store. That isn't the problem

No, I think you misunderstood me. I am running the 11/7 nightly of CM10 with the 10/11 version of gapps. As far as i can tell the 10/11 gapps are the most current on goo.im unless I'm missing something.
Also apparently it asks you to opt in to the Google Now service when you first launch it, but I never remember getting that
If you tap on the microphone on the search widget you will be directed to the search app. In there hit the menu button to go to settings. Now turn on Google Now.
I get voice, search, and privacy settings. No obvious settings in any of them that would fix the issue

Open up Google Now -> Settings -> Google Now -> Make sure it's turned on (top right corner), and if it is, go into each category you need and make sure each is turned on as well.

I'm running VBRLJ1 leaked ROM and it appears I only have Google Search. I see nothing about Google Now anywhere. I've gone through all location settings, web history, etc.. it's all open for google to track me.
I also only get cards when I search for things. No option to "see more cards" or "see sample cards".
Basically I don't have Google Now and this surprises me. Anyone know of a fix for the leaked VBRLJ1 folks? I'm unrooted at the moment.
Thanks.
Same here on CM10. I'm beginning to think it's my university gapps account that is the problem. What kinds of Google accounts do you guys have?

If you just push the widget you won't get cards. Press the blue Google search app in the drawer. Then answer the 4 questions and opt in to it
Thanks for trying but that's the whole problem you never get the option to opt in and you never get the questions. I've tried full data wipes and the option just never comes up
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Use titanium to uninstall the current Google search. Reboot. And install the one from the market
Tried it. No cigar. No questions, no opt in etc

[Q] Amazon APP not compatible?

When I go to the playstore and try to install the Amazon app, it says that the app is not compatible with the ROM, any idea?
No one else has this problem? Just to add, I am on Stock Cyanogen 38R with unlocked bootlader and rooted. And I am based in India so India Play Store.
Are you talking about the Amazon App Store app? I've been running it on this device since day one, but I sideloaded it.

This happened to me when I changed the DPI. Happens with some apps. If this is the case with you, then try setting back to stock DPI which is 480. You can then change it back after you've installed it and it should still run fine.

Is this a separate apk? Wondering why it is not working from the Google Play store, any one else facing this issue?
I am receiving similar errors but with all Amazon apps except the amazon app that allows you to look at your orders and search amazon.com. The app store, music app and the cloud drive photo storage app all crash as soon as I try to sign in. Im running stock 38R as well and I had the same problem prior to updating to 38R. On the Oneplus Forums it seems lots of people have been having problems with Amazon apps, but no one has had any clue as to why or how to fix it. Hoping someone over here can shed some light on the subject!
