Hi guys,
Is there anyway to save the apps you download from Markedplace? I've bought couple of paid apps and now I'm going to install a new ROM, so it would be really nice not to pay for them again(each time). Are they downloaded as cab files or what?
Regards,
M
Marketplace will remember the applications you have bought based on your Windows Live ID, so when you install a new rom just login and select "my apps" to download them again.
perfect, thank you.

ok, i have just done the v10d update and the video is much better...
Now id like to install an apk from my desktop of minidiary but it doesnt install..
Is that what rooting is for? to accept all apk's?
Sorry for the dumb question, i was a symbian s60v3 and s60v5 user..
Nope. To install apk's you just need to tell the phone to accept non-market items. Go to your phone's settings, then Applications and check the top option (should be called something like Unknown Sources, I have to translate from Dutch).
Then just copy the apk to your phome and use Polaris Office or a separate apk installer from the market to browse to the apk and install it.
Hello
I tried that and it didnt work, was not installed or something like that. I ticked it to accept non android market apps.
Its probably pirated i guess.. found it on the net. Does rooting make it accept all non-signed apps? What is root for?
Thanks
ps: does anyone know where i can download mini-diary. Great little app i saw in the galaxy s2
No, rooting gives you administrative access to some files which you normally don't have so you can customize the phone the way you like it.
The safest way to download applications is via the Market app on your phone (you can also try http://market.android.com). However if you don't want to pay for some apps then you can search google adding the ".apk" and the apk version in the search bar.
Hello.
Two weeks ago I was using CyanogenMOD 6.1 on my G1. I saw the .apk of the new Market Update and tryed to install it. I make a mess and loss my Android Market.
Tonight I upgraded to this ROM. After installing the ROM I didn't login with my Google account to test the ROM and the Market was there.
But after adding my Google Account and the phone finish the sync my Market was gone
What do you think that happened? And how can I solve this?
Thanks in advance.
This is not the section for a general question like that, please keep that in mind before you post.
If you want to get the market back, either install the new market APK or flash google apps again.
Reflashing the gapps solved it. Thanks
Hi everybody!
I have been flash my phone with Rom MiuiXt_Final_V2 in this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1085683 . It is a great ROM, so beautiful and fast but i have a problem with it. I can't update my apps in the phone (Example: Facebook, Google Maps...)
I try anyway such as via cable, market but result is zero! I have used Titanum to uninstall or used Root explorer to delete that app in /system/app... after that i install the newest version but i still say: "not install" >"<
What should i do? Please help me!
Regard!
in the development thread for the rom (the link you posted), it explains how to update google maps, (can't remember what page..but theres a step by step instruction). Involves using titanuim backup and a 3rd party google map fix. i think this is quite important because it gives you all the new map features.
You can try this for maps & then see if it will update via Market.
Thanks for your help. I will try!
So yesterday i received a gift of the the brand new Coby Kyros MID9742-8, which I was shocked to see came stock with ICS... Just like many other Kyros tablets though it doesnt have access to the google market (google play).. So I downloaded a google play.apk and installed it... But everytime i click the app it opens and closes automatically... Then i read to delete that apk and install the google services framework first.. then reinstall the vending apk (google play apk).. I found a google serivces apk but everytime i try installing it, it says installation fails... Any ideas XDA... Becuz I really want android market, this Get Jar market it came with sucks...
same problem
I have the same problem would use cm 7 but that would be downgrading so I'm just patiently waiting for a reply
APPS
Goto 1mobile.com and download the app and install. I have been able to get the google play apps I want there. Also, you can get apps for the Amazon Store, just have the app emailed to your tablet.
Ok I've did the amazon store thing which works good. But I also now found another way which works good if u have a existing android phone... just download "app backup and restore" to ur phone... then download what ever apps u want to ur phone... then on ur phone back up the apps u want to transfer to ur tablet. Then plug ur phone and tablet into ur pc.. next find the app backup and restore folder on ur phone then just copy the apks to ur tablet. Then go to file explorer app on ur tablet and find the apks then install them... I put instagram, chase mobile, temple run, and a bunch of other apps from the google market on my coby tablet this way and it works...... my new problem is getting flash to work on it now... any suggestions
Root the sucker
I just found instructions here...I'll let you know how it goes.

saving same problem, getting hung up on #7
i've tried all the past versions of superoneclick since 2.2. can anyone help?
I get the apps from 1mobile (which seems to have more of what i need than amazon) but most of them quit because i dont have a google account, I tried to in the options but I can't seem to find a way. I'd really like to get gmail and google music in here and synced up.
Any updates to this? I picked up one of these, and I have do the backup/restore option to get most of my files on it. But still would like to see some sort of rooted/rom for this thing.
hello i downloaded some free apps from the market with a friends rooted phone and backed them up using systemapp remover. i then mailed the apks to my mail address and downloaded them on my tab (which does not have access to the market), i then tried to install them everything looked alright but then i got the message: application not installed and that was for all three free apps from the market. do i have somehow manipulate them before i can install them? thanks for any tips
Maybe those free apps are not compatible with the tab's kernel?
You already said that you backed up those apps from a phone. Try getting a market app and then download them, they'll work.
Use gapps for gingerbread from the development section, and apply them using recovery.

Your apps might not be compatible with your Tab's Kernel.
I would suggest you to install Vending.apk (PlayStore app) first on your tab with the help of root manager and then see if it works or not or search the apps in tab section (PlayStore), follow the old steps and then see if it works.
Good luck!
Try installing the latest version of gapps

Is the phone you are installing these apps to rooted itself? I've had problems with USENET APK downloads in the past, but after rooting just about everything works. Not sure why though.
Out of curiosity, why not download the free apps directly yourself from the market instead of attemting a direct install?
many thanks to all for the tips. will try them in a few hours when its more quite at work.
the reason i can not install it from the market is that my device is not up to the specifications, its one of those hp zeen thingys, not a great tab at all but nice enough to play around with a bit. however what i will try is to install google play as it might work (the new market) but i doubt it, it had the old vending market on it but i removed since it was not working.
what i did also is that i moved those free market apps with root explorer to the tabs memory and try install it from there but it didn't work.
is it maybe because my device is not 'strong' enough for those apps? its just normal bus and train information apps....
and yes the tab is rooted
