After entering my Google account details, Google Play decided to install SuperSU, Avast and SD Maid, all of which I had installed on my old phone (I did have a lot more apps in addition to those). Does anyone know why?
Thanks.
Any idea?
Just uninstall then if you don't what the apps on your device. Pointless post

Because your Google account is set to install apps from old phones to your new one.

And where can I disable it?
You should have disabled on your previous phone if you didn't want the option.

I am aware I can uninstall apps, thanks. You didn't answer my question, so your post is the pointless one - no questions are pointless.

But it only installed those three and no others and I had tons of other apps.

I don't know the exact reason but my phone only reinstalls certain apps as well when I get a new phone, or factory restore.

Hey guys.
First of all, I own a Moto Milestone.
So I'm on stock 2.1 and I want to install a custom ROM which means wiping everything.
Now, I know how to back up my apps but once I reinstall them how do I make them appear in "downloads" so I could get updates? (I'll be using File Manager from the appstore to back up apps)
Thing is I have a lot of paid apps. Will my google account remember that I payed for the and let me redownload them?
Anyone?

I am trying to buy an app from the market, but it tells me there is an error. I cleared cache, wiped app data, checked my cc info from my computer. I can buy stuff via my pc, but not my phone. Thoughts? Suggestions?

I Have no options to downgrade or remove updates. I can disable and reenable it, Which makes me accept terms and conditions again but still gives me an error code when trying to buy something

you might want to grab an older version of the market app from somewhere, there are plenty of Gapps packages available on the internet.
It's what worked for me when i couldn't install anything from the market. Restore an old backup, and re-upgrade. That fixed it.
The way I did it was through clearing the cache in settings and uninstalling updates. It worked for me after that.

Went into script manager and tried to uninstall, it wouldn't let me. It asked what I wanted to do with the file, and gave options, one is them being install, so installed vender and phonsky again. Went into apps, play was twice is normal size, had the option to uninstall updates, I did so, and cleared cache. Nothing but an error.

it would be good if you post wich error Google Play tell you, then if someone already fixed that can help you.
I've got a problem with google play, it doesn't install anymore any app, free or shareware, so i removed market and installed an older .apk found on the web, from then on, also after the re-update it started again to work. Also if your phone is rooted you can avoid the automatic update.
I hope this could be useful
Sooooo using rom toolbox, I uninstalled play. I grabbed a very old school market, it worked, but it didn't want to update to play. I junked that, I grabbed inverted market (black and blue) and still the same issue.

I download plenty of beta version apps and homebrew apps (not from market). Is there a way to update these without losing app data by uninstalling and reinstalling the new version. I don't want to lose the app data.
Thanks

Just install the new versions over the old ones. (App will be updated without data loss)
It doesn't let me do that. It tells me the previous version must be uninstalled before installing the new one.

In that case, use an app such as Titanium Backup to backup your data, then uninstall the old app and install the new one. After that, restore the data.
Do I need to root my phone to use that app?

Yes, the device would need root access.

it doesnt let me update , it forces me to uninstall making me lose data.
As stated the only way to do it is do back up the data with titanium back up. Uninstall the app, install new one and then restore the settings.
Also be careful about getting apks from places other then the official app stores or here

Is rooting safe?

As safe as installing apps you get outside of the play store. Safer even. Just do your research

Odd that it says that. I wish I had an answer for you man. You said you restored them from rom toolbox... So it still shows up like that? Does it do the same with the play store app installed?

I'd say you have a problem with ROM toolbox. IT doesn;t play nice with a lot of ROMs
Try NOT restoring apps. Can you dl fresh install from play store?
If so, dl app from store and only restore app data after...

Yea I saw the screenshots. I use both titanium backup and rom toolbox and I've never had an issue from either no matter the rom. I prefer TB to Rom even though I own licenses to both versions. And yes matter of fact the last screenshot says COMPATIBLE if you were to look at it again.

F.Y.I I am writing this post of behalf of my sister...
Whenever my sister tries to install Facebook on her Galaxy S III from the Play Store, this message appears:
Unknown error code during application install: "-24"
She had accidentally uninstall Facebook when she tried to clear the data. Now it won't install again! Please help!
Has she rebooted her phone yet? If not have her reboot then try again. If this doesn't work then have her wipe data for Play Store Only!

Yes, that was the first thing we did. Will clearing the data for the Play Store cause any trouble?

I didn't like the Facebook app, I use tinfoil for Facebook. You could always try another Facebook app.
