Getting market to see ADB installed APK's - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is this possible?
To get the market so see apps that were installed using adb install. so that the market will see and update the apps when needed?

Nope. If you want to get updates for your apps that weren't installed via the market, you can download 'aTrackDog' (free from the market) and open it to check if your apps have updates available.

you rock thanks man ATrackDog is what i was looking for.

Market Update For Apps Not Downloaded Through Market

Hey is there any way for an app i installed through adb to show up in my downloads for market so that when an update is available i can do it.
*Plz dont post that why am i not just downloading from market....i made a script so its fast for me to install all my fav apps after a wipe which would be no where as close as finding each app in the market.
Just use atrackdog...
Well but that only tells me the latest version....how would i go about getting it ?
long press on it and select install from market. if its a paid app, you have to install it from market to get the updates.or warez it, but thats a no no
lol no its all free apps...its just i prefer adb cuz its faster...but then the apps dont update themselves..so i was wondering if there was a script or smething for adding apps to the market's my downloads...
another vote for atrackdog. get it, use it.

Donut market not aware of installed apps

After flashing donut I restored installed apps using Astro but only apps installed through market are now recognised by the market as installed and downloaded so I miss upgrades. Is there a way to make the market aware of already installed apps?
Thanks

thats the standard behaviour. Use aTrackDog if you want that functionality.
I'm sure it worked with cyanogen mods... but I will try with aTrackDog.
thanks
The Market is only aware of applications installed through the Market Application. That's just how is works, and how it has always worked. In order to track your updates through the Market, you will need to reinstall your apps using the Market, not Astro. Sorry.
aTrackDog is a great tool, and it can track any/all apps even those installed manually (or from Astro, or other tools) as well as those installed through the Market.

Are you asking because you have installed non-paid for but should have been paid for apps, and are trying to get the updates? That won't work. Good try though.
Why not just re-download them from the market instead of using Astro? That way you will see all of the updates.
Why would you even have market apps on your sd card?
Exactly which apps aren't showing in the market?
I should be starring in "C.S.I - XDA"

pay apps market

i don't display paied apps in the market...
rom ERE27 2.1u1
Try using something like Market Enabler.
where can i get it?

Download the apk, and copy it to your sdcard. Install it using something like ASTRO, but you will have to set up the option to allow unknown sources (settings/Applications).
BTW, you will need your device rooted for this to work.

Updating installed apps via Market

is there a way to update applications installed via the market place ?
I have a couple of apps that i installed manualy ( outside of the market ) but they dont show up in the market so i was just wondering if there was a way that the market can see those apps and update them with new updates....
If you get the donate version of Titanium Backup then maybe the Market Doctor feature would work.
Otherwise go into Settings->Manage Apps and un-install the app then go into market and install it from there.

[Q] Amazon.com shopping app?

As I understand it, the Amazon shopping app is only available on the US Android Market.
I'm in the US anyway (I suppose the Nook doesn't know that), but I installed Market Enabler and set it to T-Mobile US (also tried Verizon US).
Force closed the Market and cleared it's cache, but the Amazon app still doesn't show up.
Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?
I don't know if it's because it a B&N device but I could not get it to install from the market, so I had to find the apk and install it that way. It updates normally but getting it on there in the first place meant tracking down that pesky apk.
download appbrain along with fast web installer, you will be able to find and install the official amazon app from there.

I downloaded and installed the APK from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4268726&postcount=5
Which works, but how do I update it? I'm guessing they're past v1.0.0 by now ...
EDIT: Tried AppBrain, which shows v1.0.6, but won't update when it tries to via the Android Market app: "The requested item could not be found." Fast Web Installer tells me that Google disabled it's ability to function with the latest Market updates.
I did find v1.0.6 is here though: http://reviewhorizon.com/2011/01/ho...or-requested-item-could-not-be-found-message/
Still doesn't help with updates to the app though.
