Play store not displaying many apps - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have some weirdness happening. For example if I search titanium backup the program itself doesn't show up......only the key which in have purchased. I can't for the life of me find terminal emulator. If I open up a browser window, go to play.Google.com and search, there they are. If I download from web browser and send to phone play will fc when opened. These are 2 examples there are many others.
I have cleared data/cache for play, uninstalled updates for it. Cleared cache and dalvick and all the usual 1st steps. I haven't changed pixel density and I'm running swipers miui 2.3.2b1

I am having the exact same problem right now! I can never seem to find TB anymore, only the "key" (unless I search through google, as you mentioned). Same thing goes for "Scramble with Friends", and a couple of other apps. There's no rhyme or reason to it that I can find.
Any ideas anyone??

For the sake of trying to troubleshoot, what from are u running. I was thinking maybe it was a miui thing and was about to nand back to a sense rom to check.

I am having the same problem. I'm running the latest Mazwoz Beta 5 Ics rom. Idk what could be causing the problem.

From what I've been able to gather, these issues are specific to the new 3.5.15 version of Google Play Store. None of my paid apps show up.

I'm currently running MozWaz Beta 5.0. But I believe I had the same problem on Drew's Alpha 1 and Decks PB9.

So I reflashed the exact same rom I was running b4, let play store update automatically and now everything is fine. All apps are back. Not sure what got borked but it was worth it.

I have same issue. I'm on swiper's ics, a lot of my apps say "your device is not compatible...." or the apps are installed and running but not under my apps in the market.

Only solution I could find was reflashing. U could also try uninstalling play store with titanium and installing it again by grabbing an apk for it

I installed and it just freezes at the main screen then eventually force closes. Wondering if it's something to do with being rooted and running a custom rom?
I'm very interested in this as well I'm a long time user of kongregate's online arcade and would absolutely kill to have it on my phone so I'm running official update now and will update in a heartbeat to 2.2 if this works!
Heres a link to those who want to try it...

Well, I had the version that was available shortly in the market. I uninstalled it and downloaded the app directly from Kongegrate's site as linked above. Same problem. Freezes on home screen.
I'm running Epic Experience. I'll go hit up the dev forum.
yeah i would talk to your dev about it. just out of curiosity are you running that hulu mod? cause i know you needed an older version of adobe flash or something like that. also which version of epic experience?

I think there might be a hulu mod built into that rom but I know I deleted the actual app bc I don't use it. I'm running the most recent version, 2.0.07.
My flash is version v10.1.106.15 according to Ti Backup.
Edit* I just uninstalled and reinstalled flash and still getting the same problem. Oh well. I'll wait for a reply in the dev section of my rom.
For sure flashing dk28 and downloading!
Thanks for the responses!

Even though you uninstalled it, have you gone in and cleared the data and cache for that app to see if something from the first install is messing with it running? With the app installed:
Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->Arcade by kongregate->Press on 'Clear Data' and 'Clear Cache'
Personally, I am running Quantum 2.5 with the Hulu Mod, and am having no issues running the app.

No apps under "My Apps"

When I go under the "My Apps" section in the Market, there's nothing there (see picture).
I've tried clearing the Markets cache and data, downloading/installing a free app, completely removing the Market and reinstalling it, fixing permissions, and using the Market Doctor under Titanium. EDIT: Just tried flashing the new Markets .zip I found, didn't fix it either.
Market version is 3.3.11, the newest one.
Any suggestions/solutions would be greatly appreciated!

In a previous CM or other flash, was backup and restore apps from Google account checked?
How long has the ROM been installed?
Your apps should show up in time.
Is more than one Google account synced to the device?

Also, none of my apps are installed on my SD card. Figured I'd note that as well.

If you open the market and then search for a app you already have installed, does it state it is already installed and give the option to uninstall, or does it give the option to install?

It says it's installed, and when in the apps page on the Market, it has the uninstall option.

Sounds like your apps didnt get linked to the market correctly. I belive titanium backup has a feature to fix market links. There are probably other apps out there that do it as well.
Try this.
Go to manage applications and force stop market and clear data if the option is available. Then use a file explorer such as Root Explore and navigate to "/data/data/com.android.vending/shared_prefs/" and delete the file "vending_preferences.xml". Then go to "/data/data/com.android.vending/cache", and delete all files in the folder. Then reopen the market, accept the agreement and then go see if your installed apps show up in my apps.

I tried to do that, but after going into settings and clearing data, it leaves nothing in /data/data/com.android.vending except for the libs folder which I'm pretty sure I shouldn't delete lol.
Any other suggestions? :/

Any chance you use multiple gmail/google accounts on your phone? Market might have logged you in under an account that you have never downloaded anything with in the past.

yeah I had this problem and couldn't figure it out for a few hours, then I realized I added my school e-mail account and it was showing up in the market as the default account, I had to switch it in the menu in the market.
seems like the most likely problem.

Exact same issue here, apps do not show up under 'My Apps' in the android market. It really makes it difficult to figure out which apps need updating, as I have to check manually. They do show up as installed in the market, just not listed under 'My Apps' or as linked to my account. I have tried all the market link options in Titanium Backup, as well as clearing the market cache and other info, as well as uninstalling all the market updates. CM7

Try the Market Update helper in Titanium Backup.
I'm not having any issues running DW 2.1.5. All my apps downloaded fine and market prompts me for updates.
What rom are you using and have you considered full wiping then reflash? Maybe that will stop that..

Can't purchase apps through Google Play anymore

I noticed since last night that I can not purchase any app in Google Play anymore. I can still download free apps but when I try to purcahse and download an app, it give error " an error occured. Please try again".
I updated my phone yesterday to AOKP B31 and Franco kernal r121 last night.
I will appreciate your help.
It's currently a common problem so you are not the only one. These are the fixes:
1 go to all apps under settings an look around until you see play store and google services framework clear caches and data on both and reboot your system
Then open up the terms and try downloading it again after 5 minutes of waiting
2 remove your google account and add it again
Please post your results here

Yes, I fixed the issue by doing clean flash of from 31. Previously, I did not do reset data. Aften clean all good.
Hmmm I've had the same problem persist from Build 31 into build 32. It's really irritating.
Fixed on my RAZR.
I'm running Eclipse 1.3 on the Droid Razr. I had this problem since I flashed the ROM 2 days ago. I could purchase and push apps from my pc but got the error on my phone. I eventually started looking around the net for a fix.
Using TiBu I:
Wiped data from Google Framework and Google Play Store.
Deleted Google Play Store.
Restored my backup of Google Play Store version 3.5.16 (App + Data).
That fixed my problem.
Hope this helps.
Run ROM Toolbox. Under app manager -> All apps check if Google play is red or white in color. If it's white long press and select convert to system app. That should fix it.
Btw, ROM Toolbox is free on the Market

I've been having same issue with Gummy rom, using the inverted (black) market app. When I reflash gapps back to regular market it works, so i think it has something to do with the inverted market app. Are you using the inverted market?

Certain apps missing in play store (cm9?)

OK so, ever since I upgraded to CM9 months ago, I have found that certain apps are not available to me from the play store. For example, when I type in Youtube, it doesn't even show up as a option to download. When I go to the play store on my desktop, it either says that the app is not compatible with my device, or my device is greyed out in the drop down menu. This is true for several other apps that I have tried downloading. I tried clearing the play store data, but I'm still limited in the apps that show up upon searching. I was able to find a youtube apk elsewhere, but am wondering what the fix is for this cause there are other apps that I want...like zen bound. I just upgraded to alpha 6...same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have put up with this issue for long enough.
I haven't had that issue and am on cm9 and was also on aokp. Which cm9 did you download and from where?

CM9 was from here. It may have nothing to do with CM9, I just can't figure out why so many apps either don't show up at all upon search (e.g., zen bound 2), or they show up in the store, but say that they are not compatible with my device. I though it might be a screen density thing, but when I upgraded to alpha 6, the screen density went back to 240 and the play store is still missing apps like youtube.

That did it! Thanks button has been pushed.
Clearing play store data then re flashing gapps did the trick (i.e., zen bound 2 and youtube apps were showing up in play store). However, I woke up this morning and the play store is doing the same thing as before (missing certain apps). For example, I type in "zen bound 2" and get a white screen with the "No results found". I tried the same technique again (as suggested by shultz) and this time it doesn't work. So I'm back to the same problem. Any ideas on what the culprit is here? should I be posting this in the CM9 thread?

yes, I live at 190, but went back to 240 just in case that was the problem (is there a better setting i can try?). I let rom toolbox reset my phone after and i still couldn't get zen bound 2. By the way the above trick (clearing play store data and flashing gapps) briefly worked and i was able to download zen bound 2, but by the time the game was finished downloading, the play store stopped working correctly again....and so I have zen bound 2 purchased, but it won't let me install it cause it says my device is not compatible. This is aggravating.
