Default Missing Apps from Market

I've an Evo which I had previously rooted and loaded fresh 0.3. I am waiting on Sprint to get me a replacement phone so I restored my NAND backup so that I would have something close to stock to return. Funny thing though, since I restored, I was looking to put a couple of paid apps back on the phone, namely SlingPlayer and WeatherBug Elite, however they don't appear in a search of the market anymore. Download AppBrain which does locate these apps, however when I try to load them, it fails.

So I'm confused, are these applications really unavailable or is there something with my phone which won't let me see them? How can I tell?

I dont think you are supposed to share NAND across phones. Maybe some certificate now fails to match your hardware, and is blocking these market apps.

No I restored on the same phone in preparation for returning my existing phone for a replacement so indeed I restored my NAND backup to the same phone.

It will wipe your phone, but take you back to 100% stock. That is the original rom. Then you can see if market works.
