Can't view my apps on Android Market

[Guest icanrule]

Although this may not be the best place to ask this as I am convinced it has something to do with my Google account but I have become a frequent visitor of this site on nearly a daily basis to find upgrades/roms/news about the my Acer Liquid Metal. I trust this community and hope you will be able to give me the help necessary to fix my problem.

I go into the Google Market on my Android with Acers stock Rom 2.3.6. When I go into My Apps it says "Applications and games owned by this account will appear hear. Then gives a button for browse apps and one for browse games. Both buttons just take me to featured sections of apps or games on the marketplace.

I've done a lot on my own to try to fix it. I have reinstalled firmware. Done a factory reset. Cleared cache/history using Recovery LiquidMT v3. When I go to the android marketplace website it does give me a listing of all my purchases. When I go the marketplace on the phone and search for one of my installed programs it says "installed" or purchased just as it should. It will allow me to manually update the apps from here.

I've also tried the titanium backup market place fix. I don't know what it was suppose to do but it didn't fix this issue. I have downloaded marketplace from xda-develerops to see if it made a difference. The store looks difference but when I try and bring up my apps it just shows a blank screen.

One thing I noticed that was strange. After a re-installation of firmware and factory reset I opened up the marketplace. It had my apps in there for a brief second. But then the marketplace did an update and was no longer available. I've frozen market update, and uninstalled the market update. This allowed me to use the old marketplace but it's still not showing my apps.

Any help will be much appreciated. I am almost at a point where I will create a new google account and move all my apps over. I'm not even sure if that's possible though or if that will fix the issue.

I'm assuming you mean paid for apps, as free ones don't show in there.

As a workaround you can login to http://market.android.com and click on "My Library" in the top right next to the search box, which will show all the apps you have had installed, and allow you to reinstall them to the phone by clicking them.. (not ideal but easier than searching for them all)

You can't move them to a new account so that wont help.

Out of interest.. have you ever used Market Enabler or anything like that? (If not it might be worth a try to see if that makes them appear)

Have you just moved to this phone? If so did you come form a phone with a different Locale to whats available (I came from a Blade which had English UK available.. on the LiquidMT I had to choose English US as that was the only one in there.. that seemed to affect what I saw in the market.. I used the free app MoreLocale2 to add the English UK locale and that brought my apps back - might be worth a try)

Hopefully something there might help.. post back if that didnt make sense and ill try and help.

I tried the market enabled and found out my default setting is 302660. I tried the Rogers one and verizon and the problem continued. The phone was bought in Canada right from Rogers. They have not officially released Gingerbread 3.3.6 here. So I used the one that was posted on the board. I'm wondering if the one posted on the board makes Canada not compatible.

So I decided to install a different Rom. I installed Metal. Bang, it started to work. Could it be that the rom Acer_LiquidMT_4.000.13_EMEA-GEN1 that I downloaded off of this board could have been the issue? I thought I had used that one in the past without any trouble with the market (not that I would ever trust my memory). Tomorrow night I might install Acer_LiquidMT_4.000.01_AAP-GEN2_03.28.01 to see if that one works any better. I'm not sure if this gen2 is 2.3.6 though.

I'm not a big fan of of the metal rom because of battery life. All of the roms don't seem to be as good on battery life as the one release from Acer. :(
