Apps won't install from market...always fail.

Edit #2: After a restart, it stopped working. I think it has to do with whatever is restoring in titanium backup. It worked fine before that, and right after, but after a reboot it stops.

EDIT #3: I tried again, but this time I did one thing differently. When my market worked on the previous edit, I downloaded MyBackupPro from the market and backed up my apps. On this install, I used that to restore my apps/date. All is well!!!!

Well We have a common thread. I used Titanium to restore my apps as well after coming from Kangerade 1.1. to Sapphire 0.7.0. Wonder what did it.

How did you get it to work correctly, in order to use MyBackupPro?

I downloaded MyBackupPro right as I did a fresh install before I restored anything. Then I did a Titanium Restore. After that, I backed up my apps/data with MBP and made sure nothing was Market related.

I'm thinking Titanium backs up something that messes with it, while MBP really only does the apps you downloaded.

ok, so I may have fixed it.

I d/l the ROM, and extracted the vending.apk.

Using Root Explorer, I replaced the current vending.apk in system/apps with the extracted one and set permissions.

Ran Terminal to sync, rebooted....

and so far so good. *keeps fingers crossed*


oh, and got mybackup pro....LOL

Haha wewt! I like MyBackupPro because you don't have to click for every single app. Yeah, I know you can get the donate version, but I don't use paypal and just buying an app in the market is much easier than waiting for a donate code and all that.

Yup, I've not ever used an app backup but I bought mybackup pro based on the last couple pages of this thread. Once 0.7.1 comes out I'll do a full backup and wipe / factory reset.

market issues: while wiping before flashing a new rom, delete the LOST.DIR file folder from your SD card. Then flash new ROM.

I did this numerous times while I was still having problems. Didn't help.
