Hi I'm new here and have a few questions. I downloaded some apps off the web but when they are updated I cannot update them using the market. Is there any way for me to update them or add them to the "My Downloads" list in the market? If I root my phone, but do not install a custom rom will I still get ota updates, be able to install market apps, and so on?
Details:
Phone: Nexus One (T-Mobile Version)
Android Version: 2.2 FroYo FRF50 (love it)
If you guys need baseband and kernel information let me know. Also, what it different in stock froyo vs cyanmod vs any other rom? Sorry if this is in the wrong place to post this and the length.
Hi there, as of right now all that I can point you towards for you apps would be an app called apktor that can be found in the market the rest you will have to figure out on your own. Or you could also just redownload these apps through the market...
From what I have read besically when you root your phone you give up any chance to be able to OTA update. BTW I have a Telus Milestone so I am not sure about the phone you have because it might be different but I think it would be a global rule of Rooting= No OTA... Although while being rooted you can install apps from the market.
About the custom roms you will have to do some reading untill the Milestone's boot gets cracked I won't have a chance to play around with any roms, I guess best advice would be read read read and read some more. And after you have done all that reading, choose a couple of roms that interest you try each one for atleast a day and find the one that you like. If there was a best rom, there wouldn't be such a wide variety of them...

Nope, even if your phone has root you can still update apps via the market. I know because I updated my apps via this way. 2 Rules apply though.
1) The apps that you downloaded off the web are freeware and are also on the market.
2) The apps that you downloaded off the web AREN'T warez. (I'd suspect that's what you're trying to do, but do correct me if i'm wrong)
It is highly unlikely that in following these 2 simple rules you still can't update via market.
I have purchased an app via the market for my DINC. Want to use it on my tablet (Acer A500). Market says not compatible, developer says "should work, try at own risk".
How can I get the program from one to the other? I have used a file manager to view my phones programs and this one says "Private" via Astro and am unable to make a backup of it to my sd card.
Thanks.
I had this problem. Had an app that I'd paid for.
Got cyanogenmod on my phone, and then when I went to reinstall this app, it said it was incompatible with my phone and refused to let me install it. (incompatible my ass... I know it's compatible because my phone already had it).
Turns out apps can be protected so that it is 'compatible' only if your firmware is on a whitelist, or something like that.
Anyway, I followed this guide:
http : // androidforums . com / spica - all - things - root / 98024 - protected - app - market-fix-tutorial-build-prop . html
And it's fixed my problem. If you google for "protected apps build.prop", there're plenty of other instruction guides ro.build.fingerprint s that you can use if that doesn't work for you.

Well I am now rooted. Still haven't found an a500 specific mod to the build file that will enable me to see all apps on my tablet.
Hello Everyone,
I am back with new software!!!
Here it is:
I just finished making version 1 of my new Software Repository for Android.(Like Google Play but WAY cheaper ) Or Even sorta like Cydia for Android?
Well long story short this allows developers to host their software without the need to pay Google or another source. it is very simple to use.
What works as of July 11 2013:
> Render Description and Name of the Application
> Allow user to download the application directly.
What I am working on now:
> Render Screenshots and Icons
> Spiffy up the UI to make it look neater.
> Finish the Help screen for all the noobs
How to use the Phone Client on the Default repo ("http://urgero.org/repo")
1.Install the APK in the zip file on the download page.
2. Run the app.
3. It will error out saying cannot connect. This is normal for the first run as the application is just wrote the settings file to the SDCard.
4. Save settings.
5. goto the main screen and Hit refresh.
That's all for now, the applications in the default repository are written by me. (Except AdAway!)

Sorry , I am not sure whether this section allow to asked question but it is on editing and modding on apk thread so I think it is appropriate to asked here.
Having an apps LINE 5.1 which support 2.3 Gingerbread but out of sudden it required to upgrade to newer version 6.The popup updates really a bug where I can't send a message at all if not upgrade.
When I choose update/upgrade at google play it show "Your Device is not supported" .Which it consider version 7 the latest was not supported.Went back to some website which offering download older apps and download version 6 but even version 6 minimum is requirement 4.0 ICS.Tried download and install but came out 'error parsing packages'.
In shorts , how do I modified or edit the apps 6.0 to support 2.3 Gingerbread ? Even I can't modified , with the lease I can remove the bugging popup update which prevent from sending message.
I am able to receive message/picture on LINE but not able to type where the update popup disable everything.
Somehow similar to whatsapp , must update to continue using but I still can receive message at notification.
Any reply here ?

Hi. I need to ask. What does this mean? Does this include Play Store? Is it a global version?
Or is it just another Chinese ROM?
Thank you!

Does anyone know how to unroot the terminal?
When local updating to 3.05, the terminal will brick.
How to install Android 9
I've installed it the following way.
Downloaded the new android version to my Nubia X.
Started localupdate via phone --> settings --> update --> localupdate.
Android 9 installed automatically without problems. Your phone should now be unrooted.
Now you need the Root-toolkit for v3.05 --> works only in windows :/
Connect your phone via usb in fastbootmode (you need to activate usb-debugging before)
Execute the root toolkit v3.05
can't post the link, somebody else have to do it.
a window opens --> close it (can't read chinese language)
another window should open --> klick on root.
wait after "success" appears.
Your phone should be restarting.
I'm using android 9 on my nubia x since a month and its working way better then android 8.
I'm not responsible if you brick your phone.
I give no guarantee

Yeah I'm also looking for a solution how to remove this ****ty nubia voice and replace it with google.
Yeah it could be nice to replace it with Google assistant
I would install Android 9 but my fear is to loose all configurations, permissions, etc and It will take long time to reconfigure every thing.
My question is : is it really worth to install it or there are more or less the same performance?
Anyone knows if nubia X will have final android 9?
Guys!! I know this sounds stupid but I have no "update" option in my settings!! Please help if you know what is going on with my new Nubia X!

Download the rom for Android 9, got to settings -> "System update", then from the menu up, select "Local update".
No issues with 3.05 - works fine, nothings from the apps, data or setting is flushed. But the phone is unrooted and you need to process it again.
But recently I have updated it from 3.03 to 3.11 and I can't find the root tool.
Anyone has idea where to find it?
Thanks.
3.11 play store
Looking allsou the rooting tool for 3.11. Needed play store.
