Anyone seen heads or tails of teh new Bing mobile application that has not been released yet?
You mean the one available in the marketplace?
Moved as not software release or development.
Please take your time to read the rules..

The one in the marketplace is just the old Live app rebranded as Bing. The Bing blogs have suggested there's a fully refreshed app (presumably using more of the Bing look and feel) coming, but I think it's a bit unclear whether it really WILL be a new app or if they're just going to push m.bing.com or a widget version of it.
I was so disappointed when I went to this site (look at the phone), and the link they sent me only redirected me to m.bing.com.

I've been playing around with the Android OS for some time now and have managed to accumulate a huge collection of Applications.
I decided to list the lot (750+ apps) on a site for you to view and download for free.
Get them here:
Replace the "z" with a "p" lol.
If you have a desire & want to try these apps out then please comment on what works for the HTC Desire and what doesn't (eg. Certain versions of Swype don't work at all and to fix this i have created another folder called 'Desire' where only proven working apps for the desire will be listed.
Enjoy.

PS: These apps aren't exactly Warez. They are here for educational purposes to find out which ones work for which phone. Purely curiousity.

Weak.
Simple, even for you.
Can't you comprehend that these aren't here for warez purposes? I simply want to see which ones are suitable for the desire but as there are so many i decided to let other people access my apps and test them out on their phones to sort of speed up the process.
Heres some other examples:
DxTop (any version) simply does not work for the desire. It keeps force closing.
CoPilot (any version) again does not work on desire. Says cannot run code (or something similar)
G1 camera flow works perfectly on the Desire.
See what i'm doing now?
There are people out there who are much more qualified to test these apps on the android platform and i'm just giving them the chance to while seeing what works.
Its Simple. If you dont want the paid apps to test then just don't download them. Have the free ones instead.

Whatever your stated intentions (which I understood perfectly the first time, thanks.. I just don't believe you), the fact is you've posted a large collection of paid apps on a publicly accessible site. Anyone can come here and steal those apps now. Not only is this against the market terms of service and the developer's wishes, it's against the forum rules.
Amended main post
There hows that?
Now the actual link is not posted on this site. Its now posted on my site (forum)
That still against terms?

Doesn't matter if you hide it behind a link, you're still posting pirate software which is in breach of the forum rules.
Quite apart from that, you're hosting pirate software and distributing the links on a forum where some of the developers of said software are likely to be active members. I wouldn't be surprised if you receive some threats of legal action.

Yes, it is.
Posting warez or linking to sites containing warez is against forum rules. Please refrain from doing that in the future. Thanks.
As Swype is only available as a limited closed beta or as part of an OEM android build, please do no post any links to the swype apk files.
I'm the beta community relations rep for Swype (Brian Resnik, if you're over on the Swype forums).
First of all, yes we're watching you HAHA. I'm obligated to wag my finger at you all for distributing our software without a license. A little patience will go a long way. Trust me, the more the brass hears about people illegally copying Swype and feeling entitled to a free version (yes, we know there's no copy on the market for you to buy, but you have to respect that OEM distribution is our chosen business model), the less they want to support a beta program at all. The better we play nice with eachother, the sooner more people get into the beta!

lol, I'll re-instate the deleted threads after the public beta is out tomorrow. Great find.
Yes people, stop distributing the beta swype. If you didnt get to sign up then its your lose. By the way I got my invitation today
in all reality lets respect what the swype developers want.
Whew. Glad I got my Beta Key early. >:3
Just go to beta.swype.com and register. When we open the gates again, you'll be first to know and install.
Sounds awesome, but I'll believe it when I see it.
That's why I follow this forum, and a several Android™ blogs.
It was through them, that I found out about the Beta program.
I also received my Swype Beta app
If you didn't get an invite but you registered, go to the beta website, login and ask them to resend your invitation. Worked for me.
Got an invitation as well, it's soo good. Wish it had the look of the stock keyboard though. I like the consistency across the UI and apps.
I got my invitation today, too I love swype!
but how are those of us who are part of the beta supposed to get themed versions. you guys need to hurry up and make it skin-able. Also, even if you did kill the beta program... we would still get it. We always do.

and the open beta will be again:
- time limited 90 days?
- only 3 languages?
I am from Austria and i got my invitation for English, Spanish and Italian too today.. funny...
Would be great to see the official multilanguage version tomorrow (+ the option to buy it LOOOOL... funny joke )
I know you hate me anyway.
Swype has updated their page with the new beta instructions. It appears at this point to be a limited public beta, as it will only be available for a couple of days, and requires you to enter your email address to get the download.
So threads with download links will still not be allowed.
Get the info here; http://beta.swype.com/
What version is being pushed for the public beta?
I'll tell you as soon as it actually lets me download it. The site is laggy as hell and it has failed installing/activating several times now.
Most likely due to high volumes of people trying to install it.
I'd almost rather just wait and install it the less-than-legal way.
I stand corrected. Glad they opened the beta.
see this is an honorable request and all... but it's kinda annoying when your site is down and lagged as hell due to volumes of requests. at least place the files somewhere else.
think of linux distros. why do they resort to p2p downloading too? hmmm. maybe its something small sites should look into when they don't have bandwidth to begin with....
Was anyone able to download it on Froyo 2.2 for N1?????
I keep getting "You're not using an Android phone" web page.
Yes I made sure my browser was in Android mode.
First off... I know this is in the wrong thread so mod please move it (since I cannot post in correct thread since I do not have enough posts)
Looking for a app Dev or someone who can create a simple app that looks up barcodes on amazon.com for trade in values.
There used to be an app and it was called "Amazon Trade-IN Lookup" and it is no longer available. I found an old version of this app but it seems to not work.
Being able to scan barcodes of books and electronics and seeing what amazon would give me for a trade in is a great tool to use when shopping at garage sales.
So if someone knows about an app that does this already please let me know and I apologize if I didn't look hard enough but been searching for this for over 2 days and haven't found anything remotely of what that app used to do.
[Update]
Added the original apk file. Maybe someone here can edit it to make it work??? Not sure but the original DEV does not support the app anymore so there is no more updates to the app.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks
anyone????
hmmmm i'm surprised not one reply here...
Anyone have this with the update?
MOD EDIT! WAREZ ARE STRICTLY FORBIDDEN ON THIS SITE!
I believe you will have to look elsewhere for the adfree, themed Pandora. Since the unlimited skips component of the app makes the pay service unnecessary, XDA treats the app as waerz.
Weird because it was called the themed version before and got it here.
I've gotten it here before as well. A little while back, one of the themes and apps threads was locked and links were taken down (forgot what device) while XDA mods reviewed the app to see if it violated the no warez policy. Themed/modified Pandora and Swype are kind of taboo around here, so I'd do a Google search and find an alternate site to download from.
