Finding apps that you had that are no longer in the market? - Thunderbolt Themes and Apps

There are a few apps I had downloaded back in June on ky EVO that are no longer in the market. I tried searching through Google for them and every link sends me to the market one way or another. Is there any way to get these again?

Are you rooted with a custom ROM by any chance?

Negative.............

Anyone........

If you still have the EVO, connect up to WiFi and go to market and download the app file manager (grey folder icon) and use its app back up area and back up the apps you want to there .apk format, and email them to your self..open app attachments from new phone and there you have it.

Or instead of emailing them to yourself you could download dropbox on both devices and download the apps to and from there. Also its free. I've had trouble with files being to large to make it out of my corporate server.

What if I want to install wizardsetup.apk .. I have rooted the phone and remove the wizardsetup.apk and now my fav calling wont work. I would be able to add to fav but it doesnt show up. Dont know if there is another app from the market that could replace it. Pls advise on what to do.. Where i can download the wizardsetup.apk or another app that would be comparable

Let this be a lesson, you should not delete system files that you are not sure what they are for. Either add a .bak to the file name or save it to your computer first. Anyways pm me your email address and I will help you out.

Thank you..........

Music Junk

Apparently it was removed from the market. Does anybody have the apk? It was a free app, and one of my favorites. I had to do a wipe and didn't backup my apps assuming I could just re-download it from the market.
its available in this market

Hey just a heads up to anybody who cares, I recently installed market enabler and several Mp3 file sharing apps popped up, also a nice updated version of Music Junk. Outstanding!

Delete the Google back-up??

Can't seem to find an answer to this. I had to get a replacement DHD (1st one had a very loose camera) and really wanted to have a fresh start with the new phone - no apps, etc. Since I had the backup thing checked on the 1st phone, the 2nd phone reloaded all the apps from the 1st phone. I've tried the various resets (with backup turned off), but nothing gets me back to a blank, clean phone.
Keep in mind that I'm not talking about the Contacts or Gmail being pulled in (that's fine) - I just don't want the apps & settings from the 1st phone. Uninstalling the apps doesn't quite get me to a clean install. Anyone know of a way to delete/turn off that backup that's sitting in the Google cloud?
What are you running? 2.1 or 2.2

The stock 2.2 rom from DHD
I've had the same problem, and as far I know there is no way to do it. There is a simple workaround, but you will have to disable backup all together:
1. Reset your device,
2. When first time setup will come on, set up your DHD BUT dont enter Gmail settings (for now).
3. Once done go into 'Settings', then 'Privacy' and UNCHECK box next to 'Back up my settings' and 'Automatic restore'.
4. Once done, set up your Gmail account (either manually or starting 'Setup' from All apps).
This seems to be the only way for now, and to be honest I'm quite shocked there is no easy way to manage backups from a pc/phone.
PS: I hope there is a better way - if somebody know one, then please share it with us.
You could also just sign in with a new google account.

You could, but most of us would like to keep the "old" one (for obvious reasons).
There are 2 ways to do it. The reason why it reload all the apps is becoz Ur gmail ID stores Ur download list for the market.
1. When u hard rest don't sign in to gmail. Let the setup finish. Once that's done open market place, it will ask u to sign in. As soon as u complete the sign in go to downloads. There u will c ur apps installed list, which will start to download automaticly. Click on each one and cancel the installation. There, ur list is clean now. U don't really need to do a hard rest after this but should do just Incase.
2. Goto market then to downloads and uninstall every thing and hard rest and ur back to a clean phone.
as I had the same issue, The first method worked for me.

Same thing has been bugging me as well!!
i've posted a question on googles help forum,
See if that get any suggestions...
any real answer to this yet or is there some type of pc/phone management for this??
It should ask for restoring from Google account while setting up the phone.
Just after the location server setting, I think.
Then just uncheck it.

Missing Download buttons!

I just installed CM7 on two NC's. I am seeing something strange in the Android App store. Some of the more common apps that I have used in the past like Astro, Facebook and others do not have a download button (or any button for that matter).
If someone can explain why and what I can do to resove this problem that would be great. A side note the NC's are using two diffrent gmail accounts.
Same and I'm using one gmail account. Also it looks like I've had a kinda old version of Facebook installed for a while (1.6.1) without marker stating there was a .2 or a .3 release. I uninstalled the app and that is how I found out about there being no download button. So it might of been a problem with some of the last nightlies as well

It's a problem with new market. Try uninstalling updates in the settings for the market.

I think it is because the new market is device sensitive, our devices show up as B&N nook colors, the market thinks we are running crippled e-readers and doesn't let us download all the cool ****.
Do what koopakid08, go to your application settings > manage applications, find the market and "uninstall updates"
New market looked crap anyway.

I followed what people said to do in this thread but when I try to edit the MarketUpdater.apk file name I get an error "Insuffecent Permissions". I'm really new to all of this I feel like I am missing some important part of this CM7 process. Any light on what I'm missing would be great!

What I did was rename MarketUpdater.apk to MarketUpdater.apk.bak by using linux on the sdcard that I'm booting cm7 off of. Not sure how to do it if you're running cm7 on the emmc.
With the help of a friend I found what I had to do so I am able to edit apps if CM7 is loaded on the emmc. I found this extremely useful so I will link the wiki that fixed my issue.

What did you fix? How?
I updated and also have no Download button. The panel that button should be on flashes white. When I uninstall updates, my old market comes back, but after I leave the market, the new one returns, with the download button. After I leave that market and return, functionality falls apart. The main page doesn't open correctly, Download button disappears, and frames become shaky. What's the deal???
The new market hates us all and laughs at our suffering.

LOL! But don't think I'm your new Market, to laugh at you: I'm one of the sufferers with not only download buttons being eaten by Green Dude, but also icons for previously downloaded apps missing. Mine are all free apps, but I can't imagine how people with disappearing paid apps could get refunds now.
Anyone to share his/her experiences with the best/fullest alternative apps marts? Thank you.

Obviously it can't be that simple, since at least a few of us have no idea what this "App manager" is...
settings
programs
manage applications
all
market
turned off compatibility mode.
Wow. I was with you to the last step. Couldn't find "compatibility mode" in the old market or in the new.

I simply downloaded super manager from the market then renamed market updater..
1. Open super manager
2. Enable root function option
3. Use built in file explorer in super manger to find market updater.apk.(should be in system apps...)
4. Rename. I simply renamed (.bin instead of apk...)
This will preventing market from updating...
Hope this helps all....

Searched, seems that feature is available on MIUI only. No lucky with stock CM7.

No Facebook App for nook devices?

I tried to download facebook ( it might have been a facebook widget) but it told me my phone is not compatible with this app. I couldnt even download it from the market
Is there a way to fool the market that I have a phone and not a nook tablet?
I download facebook app to phone then used root explorer and copied from /data/apps to dropbox

That sounds like a great idea. If only I didn't own an iPhone. Lol. Can anyone send me the apk please? Or is there a way to trick the market that I have a cellphone instead of a Nook?

[Q] Extracting App?

I have an app on my phone, but it is no longer available on the Google Play Store. Is there anyway I can get this out of the Vivid so I can move it to a different phone (Samsung Galaxy Note)? I want the app, but I can't really find anywhere to download it.

If your rooted yo can get a root explorer and navigate to /data/app and copy the app to your SD card
From there put it on your computer then on your other phone...or Bluetooth it over

Download Bluetooth file transfer by medieval software from play store. In that application, you will find an option like send app. Basically, this software converts the app installed in your phone to .apk file and sends it to the other phone you want. This will help.

Lol it doesn't convert it apps stay as .apks on phones, so it just grabs the app and sends it
Good suggestion though, does the app require root?

Yeah, id like to try the blue tooth thing, does it need both phones to be rooted?
NO Root required. Just install the app and shoot..works well on Stock ICS, CM 9.1.0 stable, CM 10 Experimental, Thunderbolt, Slim ICS, Chemeleon 1.1 (tried and tested by me).. no bugs known..
You can use root explorer or try apk extractor both work very well.
