Paid Apps Disappearing

So between flashes I started backing up my apps to the sd by using the AppControl app. Worked like a charm–no problems. So after flashing a new ROM, and installing the apps I had backed up, package installer had issue with a few, and said it couldnt install, even though they were apps I had on my previous system, and were fully paid for. So now im thinking, no problem, ill just go to the market and re-DL them...and this is where it gets strange, but the actual listing for the apps that I had problems with no longer show up in the market for me. I mean, they really dont show up. I have searched by name, scanned QR codes and went to the dev's other apps and went to the visit more apps link. Even stranger is that one of the apps that didnt install and is now gone (nesoid) is made by the same guy that made an app that did (Snesoid). When i go to view just his apps, Snesoid shows as installed, but I just get the listing for nesoid lite, no nesoid at all.
Any ideas?

The only thing i can think of is if you flashed an ADP1 which you cant see paid apps with.
On a side note i dont think this belongs in development more like QA

I'm having a similar but probably unrelated issue. I went to use I tweet! today only to notice its no longer installed on my phone. Neither is Hello IM, which I paid for. They show up as installed in the market, but when I open the market listing, both the open and uninstall buttons are greyed out.
I tried repairing the ext partition using the cyanogen recovery, no effect. Movies by flixster is also missing, and I'm sure there's probably more that I haven't noticed. These apps are not in the manage apps settings, so I can't uninstall them. I do have nesoid still, as well as many other paid apps.
I think my sdcard is just dying, but wonder if anyone else has experienced this as of late?

Anyone with the knowledge to help with this is going to be a dev type. Thats why I posted here.
If it was a problem with just the rom it should have been solved by flashing to a different version which i did. I have tried this on 2 versions of eclair and 1 donut.

I experience this problem when tweaking the props files to make google navigation work but now that they released it for 1.6 i went back to regular cyan prop files and all my apps where their except for 1 I cant seem to find it but who cares it was 99 cents. But to answer your question I had missing bloo, weekly wallpaper ( a joke now) and the game i cant find still.

It took a little time to get everything set up. It would have been up sooner, but I was out of town for work this week and stuck at a hotel with the slowest download/upload speeds in America (seriously downloading ROMs in number of bytes per second).
Glad to be back home and able to get everything else set up and posted. I hope people enjoy.

Tried it with the cyanogen build and i can get to the end but no update is produced to dl... heavy traffic or maybe theres something else going on

It worked just fine for me (I just double checked, using the CM6 ROM for base to be sure). It does take a little while after you click the 'Serve Me!' button for it to come up. Then it takes you to another page, and says 'Preparing your rom..' for a bit, then the download link will pop up.
When the link comes up, it will still say 'Preparing,' even though it is done. The link comes up on the left side the add box below, so it is easy to miss. It will say 'Your rom is ready for download' and provide a link.

cool idea OP...just wondering about the Cyanogen build. Is it based on the nightly?

Did you upload your own app? If so you HAVE to upload your own app in zip file.

WOW cool idea worked fine flashed fine using damage base. I love it. One thing does it deox?
How about all the basics like zipalign etc? Are those all default to whatever you use as a base?

Some of the base roms you have listed have different versions. As an example is OMJ...he has 3 versions (w/kernel, w/o kernel and deodexed). How can we tell which one is part of the program?
If I can make a suggestion, in so many people here like to theme, if a choice is to be made you use the deodexed versions.

Whenever possible, I have included deodexed versions. I didn't know OMJ had multiple versions, so I will check what is there and update the OP to be more specific about versions for that and others (probably in the morning).

To my knowledge the kitchen does none of those things. I know dsixda's kitchen is a bit more in-depth, including those features, but this is a lot more basic. Assume all ROMs default to whatever the original developer has done (so, for example, Fresh Evo does zipalign on load, but the stock ROM does not).

The CM base that is provided is the release candidate. Check the link in the OP for the post. I cannot keep up with the CM nightlies, so the kitchen will likely only be updated with major releases (if there is a RC2, or when the final comes out). Sorry for the inconvenience.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=746276
So if the base rom that I select already was deox... zipaligned etc etc then I'm safe to assume thats how it gets recooked?

It would be cool if you can take some apps from another ROM and place it into your base ROM..

Very cool implementation of the kitchen. Nice work! One of my favorite features is making stock apps uninstallable by moving them to /data/app. Save you the headache of using adb or something like root explorer to manually delete an apk for something you don't want.

Is there any way that explanations of the files could be posted that are shown. The applications may or may not also make sense as they sometimes use internal HTC names. Yes, I know, asking a lot, but it might help those of us who don't know what all the files listed in the first section are for.

Is there any way to change boot animation? I saw on the Nexus One kitchen it was possible...

Skype Beta?
i saw in the kitchen one of your selectable apps is skype for video calls is there a apk for that anywhere

Little OT but where can i just get the Skype apk you have in your kitchen?
Thanks

everything looks great!
only idea and question which comes to mind as im stepping through the menus and options - version numbers for the applications to be added in?
example, wifi tether - what version number is this?

Would it make sense to have an option to include Netarchy's kernel for the ROMs that didn't already have it?

Is Gapps.zip also required with DJ ICS+ V1.0.3 also?
I root and upgraded my Sam Tab 10.1. It required Gapps.zip. Also it also auto downloaded all of the apps from my Marketplace library. On the Skyrocket each apps has to be re-downloaded. Would installing Gapps.zip, if even possible on the Skyrocket, add any missing baseline apps and do the auto download of the library?
TIA,
Rob

Nope you don't need gapps

i have never had the google backup/restore work properly unless running an AOSP/CM7 rom....on any of my devices. never even bothered with the tab because i have Titanium Backup, and i get all my game saves and settings back...

same thing, google wouldnt restore anything I had unless I was using AOSP or something cm7.

So been using DJ ICS+ V1.0.3 for a while now. The aesthetics are excellent and it appears to be very stable. So I have to say the folks that worked on this did a really good job. However, benchmarking this load shows about a 20% decrease in performance compared to a stock 2.3.5, even when clocked at 1.7Ghz versus the stock 1.5Ghz.
I could be doing something error but the load works very well. Perhaps FauxClock is not working correctly.
The numbers from AnTuTu are:
Stock 2.3.5 - 6053
DJ ICS+ V1.0.3(2.3.6) - 4834
This is apparently not a full ICS build which is fine it has a good look and feel but it is at the expense of some performance.
So before the flames start, I am not complaining. Just merely pointing out some fact for anyone looking to some this or the new to be updates load(rom).
I would have posted this in the development forum but still don't have 10 posts.....
FWIW,
Rob

Your thread would have been deleted if your question had been posted at the development forums. That is why we have Q&A forums. This is the right place to ask you questions.
Please familiarize yourself with the XDA Forum Rules.
Good you didn't have 10 posts to make your question there yet, didn't you

Ok, being part of several forums that rule is certainly not intuitive.
So since this is the correct forum post how about a response?
Seems like the folks creating the ROM would be interested in the feedback and be best to provide some insight. Don't seem to be getting it here.....
Or did I miss the response?
Also, I read the rules and I did not see anything that would suggest that this post in the Developers Forums would have been removed. Do the rules change as the moderators deem fit???????

it has nothing to do with the ROM. it is a Touchwiz based rom and thus you will have the exact same issues as any other touchwiz based rom when it comes to your apps....

I was thinking of installing the gapps for the same reason. Not so much the apps for me, but on my AOSP phones/roms google saved all my wifi passwords that alone is worth checking out because I have a lot that are a pain in the ass to enter on a phone.

but GAPPS are the same versions of the apps that are already included in the rom...
this is a TOUCHWIZ issue, until you remove Samsungs crap UI, it will remain an issue
installing GAPPS from CM will yield no benefit.....

Didn't know this. Thanks! I recently fired up my old Nexus S 4G and it was nice that everything just worked, loaded, and connected after I unput my google account info. Every android phone should do this.

[Q] In need of help w/ Google Chrome drop-down menu colors...

Hey guys,
I'm in need of help figuring out why the colors of the text in any drop down menus when using Google Chrome are so hard to read/see. I'm a long time user of Beans' ROM's, and have tried other ROM's in the past and enjoyed them but just love the effortless dependability of Beans ROM's. Anyways, it wasn't until updating to his most recent Build #22 that I had a change in color of the drop down menu's in my Mobile Google Chrome browser and have an extremely difficult time reading the selections. I've looked in every different customization menu he included in his new rom and can't find anything on how to change the colors. I've tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling it, clearing the app data and whatnot, and can't figure out why it happened to change after flashing the newest update to his rom.
Attached is an example screenshot of what I mean. Whether it be on a mobile version of a website or the desktop version of a site, the drop down menu colors are all the same. Is there anything I'm missing or a setting I can change, or does it lie within a possible app update within chrome? Any help is appreciated!

No replies at all? I know it seems kind of out of place to post this question here, and not in the thread of the ROM i'm using, but I was told I couldn't post in any threads aside from the Q&A Help threads so I was forced to post it here. I've been a member for just under a year now with a few posts here and there but it wouldn't let me post in the actual BeansROM thread itself. Any help with the problem would be much appreciated, or how to go about letting me post my question in the ROM's thread would also be a big help too!

I don't know the answer but it's in the ROM thread if you look hard enough as I do read it from time to time, I just don't use the ROM though, so I don't know right off which text color you have to change.

Does my requirements feature in a current ROM

Firstly i don't wish this to be turned into a which one is best, as mostly this is all subjective depending on each users requirements....
What i would like to know is the following... Does a ROM currently exist which have the following things?
As close to stock as possible
Option to select and to run phone in ART runtime
Theme engine present, OR ability to change icons whilst in ART mode
Essentially I'm looking for something close to Paranoid Android, BUT with ability to use ART runtime?
Thanks in Advance

You completely misread the message.
We don't support bug reports or issues if you are using art, as there are many apps incompatible with art in general.
If you read the message it stated the TEAM doesn't support it but you can switch to art if you want to. If it wasn't compatible, we would not have even given you the option

Yep, put it in ART now. Think when initially looked into it i just saw PA doesn't support... and obviously like an idiot didn't read any further!

We tried to make the message clear enough but no matter the wording it came through as the ROM didn't support it for some reason. You most certainly aren't the only one.
Once Google makes art default we will support it as long as it's not an app issue. Some apps are not compatible with art
