Help Andoird Market Updates

hi guys,

my apologies in advance if the below seems like a drag. but, my issue is as follows.

bout two days ago, i flashed my stock 2.2 Galaxy S with a custom ROM from xda-developers/rom kitchen. before, doing a wipe and flashing the new ROM, i backed up all the apps (apk files) i had installed using Astro file manager.

once i flashed with the new custom ROM, i installed all the apps (apk files) using the file browser.

now, the issue is, when i go into the "my apps" tab of the market app, it doesnt list any of my apps as they were not installed thru the market, which means that i won't be receiving updates for the apps i've got installed.

is there any way i can get my apps to appear in the market app or to get updates through the market app?

any help on this would be much appreciated.

thanks in advance,
cheers
 
Paid Market apps a user has downloaded, and some free ones, are connected to the gmail account of the user and will appear on the "my apps" list in Market once syncing has occurred with that account.

I'm wondering if you're using the same gmail account with the new ROM as you were prior to it.
 
talk bout timing!! i checked the market app about two hours ago and it didn't show any of the apps i had installed (i flashed the new rom day before yesterday).

and i checked the app again just after submitting this post vola!! it has synched and showed all the apps!! freakish coincidence eh!! :)

and thanks for the reply...

cheers
