In most cases yes. Any data downloaded by an app usually stored in that app data folder. The "extra downloads" that would not be deleted is the data that is not specific to a specific app; like downloading Google Play Games updates or Text To Speech voice packs or another languages packs...etc. These serve the whole system and need to be deleted separately.

[APPS] GApps package [not continuing, last update Jan 13,2011]

Edit:
==========
With Cyanogen Mod 7, you can choose which Gapp you need when you set up the first Gmail account, as a CM 7 user I no longer update this gapps package.
By the way, the gapps package is only to be used with CM6.
Good day!

If you have already installed your ROM and have been using it for a while, you may also try this more convenient way to move updated apps from /data/app to /system/app if you have Titanium Backup installed :

TB will move it from /data/app to /system/app
or you could manually move the files with Linux commands.. both options, IMHO and no offense whatsoever to the effort put in to these packs, are better than waiting for update zips.. use the market as it was intended

Thanks to Carig for providing the above procedure
-------------------------------------------
By the way. It's easy to make an update package by yourself!
Here are the steps that I used:
1. Download any gapps update pack
2. On your phone, update Google apps
3. Find your updated google apps' APK files in /data/app, copy & paste them onto your SD card
4. (optional) if you Want to immediately apply your update pack after making it, uninstall updates of all your updated Google apps from Market
5. copy updated APKs from your SD card to your computer
6. use any Zip file manager (e.g. 7-zip, a free one), open the old Google apps update package (the zip file)
7. Carefully re-name your downloaded APKs to the names in the update package (e.g. rename com.google.android.gm-1.apk -> Gmail.apk)
8. copy and paste your new APK files into the Zip archive
9. (optional) sign your package, using Zip Signer (freeware on Android Market) or using this tutorial:

Thanks man, it's so useful to me everytime I flash a nightly : )
Thanks a lot!
Thanks very useful
thankyou very much
I would love to see a program which can work with exchange Group adress lists. That together with a nice email widget is moving me towards sense all the time.
Good Stuff! Thanks
what abt market?
If it's not already on /data, will this move it?
Prob a stupid question...
What if we already have GApps installed and we don't want to wipe?
Maps 4.7 is out.
Thanks guys, new pack is now up, including updated Maps, soundback and Terminal Emulator, rebased on CM's gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip.
This update package will not automatically remove updates which you already done in Market, but it's easy to remove them. Just go to Market and "uninstall updates" to all your updated system apps.
I'm currently learning how to make update script, I hope I'll implement that feature later.
Thanks for your work, I'll keep an eye on this thread too

Thanks a lot,
Now I'm on holiday so I'll give them a try I'm very new to Android development.
I had few problems with the Terminal Emulator, I can not simply replace AndroTerm.apk with newer version, it will force close if doing a clean installation (flash rom then immediately flash the update package)
I'll look into this problem....
Hey guys
New pack is now up
includes updated Google Voice, Voice Search and YouTube.
thanks, keep this updated

First enable the sd ext partition from settings extra.. The last option tick it..
If already ticked then dont anything..
Install play services manually..
You will find in the gapps zip in system-> private-app= PrebuiltGMS like this or something extract it then install as normal apk..

It happened cz the system partition was due to which play services were not installed.
via xda premium app
So i've fixed it by downloading the apk from internet and install it. Now it's working.
Thank you all!

via xda premium app
Couldn't sign in There was a problem communicating with google servers.
Note! Root Required!!
Go to settings- apps - playstore and Clear Data and cache
Now using any root file explorer (Esxplorer recommended) open etc folder located in root folder... locate host file - open with text editor..
it should look like below
123.0.0.1 local host
12 ip6-local host
# 123.123.12.123 android.clients.google.com
Now just add # infront of the second ip address which is 123.123.12.123 as shown above
save the file restart the phone and it will work..
Thank if it helps you(I am not a developer so it might not work for everyone but atleast give it a try)

[Q] Titanium, Detach from market, not stick

Sprint gs5, CM-root, TWRP, SDfix...
I have an app which I do not want updates to...
The developer is making changes to the app to fix issues with other brands/models...
The current version works well on mine and I don't want it to update to a version which might break it for my brand/model...
In the playstore I disabled auto-update, but it still shows up in the manual and group update list...
I went into titanium (pro) and detached it from the market and it showed 'attach to market (forced)'
I checked playstore and it is off my app list...
Several minutes later it re-appeared in playstore and titanium went back to 'detach from market'
So the detach function is not sticking...
Any Ideas?

Its been an issue with Titaniium before and appears as it does on your device. Try this:
1) get the Apk you wanna detach (ex using TitaniumBackup) into location you can easily get to (ex. SD card)
2) install ZipSigner from play store
3) re-sign the extracted Apk using ZipSigner and test key
4) uninstall the original app and install the re-signed Apk you made
5) profit
Hi, I realise this is an old post but it's something I've been trying to do for a while too. I've finally accomplished it successfully so I thought I'd share it on in some of the topics.
It works by changing the apk signature so the app typically becomes 'different' to the one on the Google Play Store and therefore doesn't appear in your Google Play Store list. But by doing this, you won't be able to update the app from Play Store.
How to:
Need Root.
First do a TB backup of current apk just to keep it.
With a file explorer, go to root\data\app and copy the app apk that you want to change and paste it somewhere on SD card.
Now uninstall the app
Download and install: ZipSigner by Ken Ellinwood from Play Store.
Open ZipSigner, choose input file and navigate to earlier copied apk
I used key/mode: auto-testkey
Sign the file
The new signed apk will be put in the same directory the original file was.
Now install that signed apk and your're done. Check market.
Worked for me - hope it works for you!
