Hi There,
Is there some way to connect to talk via some other port? Cause on some Wifi network(like at my library) the default port that gtalk uses on android is blocked.
Because of the stupid requirement of gtalk needing to be connected, I cannot download any apps.
Or better still has someone come up with a app that downloads apps from the market without the need to sign into gtalk.
I tried app brain, and I was thought it would download the app once I sync. But it has not done so.
Cheers
Pritish
This would be interesting to know if possible.
As for right now, I think your only solution is to try a proxy or vpn.

How can I connect through a proxy via wifi?
Can anyone explain to me why google made the gtalk sign in requirement for market?
I've uninstalled Gtalk via Titanium Backup, as I don't use or need it, and I can still download from the Market. Maybe it depends on phone?

Were not talking about the app, but the protocols it uses as that's how the market communicates with Googles servers

Found this website called Slideme. At the moment that's only place I can download apps over wifi, but they obviously don't have all the choices

I know that you can push free apps directly to your phone (even those not in the Market on CM6!), but I can't find any way to update those that are out of date. They show up on the "Updates" list on the phone, but when I view them on AppBrain.com they just say "Uninstall." Any way to do this easily?
I'm a bit confused, they show up on the "updates" list where exactly?

OH, my mistake. I think I misread your original title. I don't know of a way to push updates remotely. But I do know that in froyo updates can be set to automatically apply without user intervention (which is what I figure you are really after, the lack of confirming each individually install).
Maybe hypershell could be utilized in conjunction with something else...I believe thats what titanium backup pro utilizes to bypass the user clicks.

I'm trying to find a way to update my apps in CM6 that aren't showing in the Market. I've already confirmed that I'm able to install free apps that aren't showing up for me via AppBrain (sent ChompSMS straight to my EVO and it installed without the Market). Now I just want to update my existing apps.
Hi, basically what i want to know, is if you can get a non market downloaded app to actually SHOW in the market (so i can be notified of updates etc)
The reason i am asking this is because some developers offer their app free to XDA users, but paid on the market. It's just a bit of an inconvenience not to have it updated when i open the market.
Any thoughts on hwo to do this?

try out superoneclick. Connect your device in debuging mode. Run SuperOneClick and click the allow non market apps option. I use this with my x10. But when I do update it automaticle bring me to the pay-pal.

Doesn't this just let you install non market apps? Because i can already do that with Cyanogenmod.
What i want exactly is apps to show up in the market so i can update it from there
The market uses a server-side database to keep track of what apps you've actually purchased. And I believe client-side it just keeps a running list of what apps you have on your phone. But for purchased apps, the record of the purchase is on the servers. So if you side-load an app that normally costs money on the store, it may recognize that you have the app, but the purchase won't show up.
If it was all client side someone would have come up with a way to do this by now since if it was possible you could trick the store into thinking you've bought pretty much any app you choose.
This depends on the kind of apps you are trying to get notified about.
Market uses server side authentication and lists apps installed on phone using the server database.
If you are trying to update apps that are not available in your region, you can use Market Enabler or Root Toolbox and emulate another region/carrier and get the app. You have to install the app this way and whenever there's an update, you will be prompted but every time you want to update, you will have to change the region.
If you are trying to gets apps that are paid apps in the market and you didn't buy them on the market and you obtained it via other means(including apps like Autostarts which is open source but paid in app allowing you to compile a copy for yourself free of charge), you cannot make the market recognize them. However, you can use App Update Notifier(free app on market) to get notified whenever the app is updated.

*facepalm* Makes perfect sense that it would all be done server side for aunthentication reasons.
I will have a look at that app, cheers
You could also try the client from Appbrain:
appbrain.com/info/getting-started
Found another stand-alone app:
www.androidpit.de/de/android/market/apps/app/de.goddchen.android.appupdate/App-Update-Notifier
As long as the app is available in the market you can, after you have installed the apps just clear the data and cache for the market the reload the market and they will be in your list, but if there pay apps and you haven't paid for them you can't update them.
Black markets will do this for you

Just curious:
Let's say I purchased an app from the Marketplace, and it was later delisted. Using Windows Phone Device Manager, I can back up the individual files for my apps, but is it possible to also restore them? Say I had to do a hard reset, or uninstalled an app, not realizing it was delisted. Is it possible to put the app back on my phone? Additionally, it's my understanding that pirated Xbox Live games will not have achievements available to them. Therefore, if there IS a way to restore apps that I've uninstalled (or otherwise lost), will it enable Xbox Live functionality if it's backed up from my phone and restored to my phone?
I did a search of the forums, but didn't find an answer, so I apologize if this has already been asked. Thank you for your time.
This won't work. There's more to an app than just its install files; it also needs to be registered with the AppMgr (this is what does things like put it in the app list) and also needs a security chamber (basically, a user account) created with custom permissions (each app runs in a different chamber).

So there's no way to ever reinstall a deleted app if it's no longer in the Marketplace? ... Damn. That sucks.
Still, thanks for your reply. Much obliged!

There should be if you check your dl history on the WP site. You can redownload apps from there and if it works anything like the Xbox marketplace, this will include delisted apps. Haven't had to do it myself yet, so cannot be sure but worth a try.

FYI, the Marketplace does not work like that for WP7. If you try to redownload an app that you previously had (free or paid) that is NO LONGER on the Marketplace, with the Reinstaller App for example, it will not find the files to do the download.
However, if you know who the developer is/was, might be able to contact them and have them send you the XAP....
Hi, I have an app which looks like the developer has removed their servers so it always fails the "internet connection" check.
Its IONROAD. A AR driving app.
I paid for the PRO version so its all good. I use an older version not the latest as I hate the latest version.
99% of the app is using the GPS or the camera. It does check the internet for the weather and a few little things.
I've tried it at home while connected to wireless, in the car while connected to Mobile Data, I've uninstalled, reinstalled and updated and all versions fail the internet checks. To me it looks like they closed their servers so the app refuses to work without the internet so it will never work again.
What I want to do is remove that internet check so it will keep working without the need for their servers. If it never connects to the internet it doesn't bother me. I dont care for the current weather in a AR driving app, I care for how close the car in front of me is or if i'm drifting out of the lane I'm in. Absolutely nothing to do with the internet so how do I remove that check?
I have the APK, trying to get it into the Android SDK and not sure how? Even if I do get it there what do I remove?
All I want is that internet check removed. As I said I paid for the app so the licence check always passes as I paid for it.
The dev has abandoned the app, they refuse to reply or update. As they closed their servers I'm guessing they totally abandoned the app.
Any help what to remove and how to remove it? Is it an easy unzip, edit a file then zip and reinstall? Or is it a complete import into SDK, rebuild, test, etc and make a whole new app?
I'm not sure what or how to edit it.
Thanks
BTW, Here is the free version. I have the paid version but I'm guessing its the same.

I've tried a few times and cant do it. I've tried out the SDK and a few other apps and cant remove that damn internet check. I thought I removed what was needed but its still not working.

Greetings and welcome to assist. Unfortunately assist is for guiding new members around the boards only, you really need to ask your question here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help
it should be relatively easy to fix though by decompiling and editing the manifest
Thanks for understanding

I'm not rooted and I must do a backup before a fresh install (Google assistance asked me to do it to see if reception problems go away..).I'm trying to use since hours internal cloud backup with google One, but it tries to begin and stop after a minute asking to try later..
What can I do?
Thanks

Try to re-initialize it...?
I might try Uninstalling it, rebooting, and Re-Installing it and seeing if that doesn't get it to work. If that doesn't work, I might try an older version and see if it's a new version issue -- old versions found at APK Mirror...
Just some ideas...
Do you have pi-hole or any other DNS blocking setup in your network?
Try backup with no wifi connected and see if its is starting.

Yes, the Google One app. You've even tried previous versions?
I might try what AceTrader suggested and see if it isn't a connection issue; use your cell data versus wifi -- in case something on your wifi/service provider may be stopping it.
If that doesn't work, maybe it's a Google Account issue and, only if you wish to go drastic enough, try and re-initialize the account associated -- I would imagine removing the account, force-closing the Google One app, clearing data, launching the app, and it will most likely ask to re-sign in to the account.
Thinking on this, if there is a way to delete any Google One backup data; maybe the existing data is interfering somehow...
gain, just some ideas... hope something gets it to work!

I've already deactivated vpn, alternative dns, tried Google Vpn, and mobile data.It manages to back up only one app.

I don't think you'll lose the apps installed, but your account will be signed out of them (only Google apps and apps you used Google sign-in protocol) and you might be required to sign back in when you launch them again. I doubt you'll lose any data or settings though...
But I can't be 100% certain as I don't know all of your set up.
Today it blocks at 50%.
