Grooveshark APK - General Questions and Answers

Since Google pulled it and Grooveshatk's website still redirects to the Market, I was wondering if someone could upload the APK here. Thanks!

Here you go...

Why did they pull it?
Ideos X5 / Huawei U8800

Much thanks!
I'm new to grooveshark and didn't realize that the mobile app needs an anywhere account @ $90/yr. Since you have the apk, I'm assuming you might be a subscriber. If so, do you find it worth it?

I am a subscriber but, I didn't get the apk from my phone. I found it somewhere else.
As for the service itself, I was using Grooveshark a long time and since I was grandfathered in, I pay 3$/month. For that, it is totally worth it.

Nice.... it seems to be a lot better than pandora or slacker premium in that u can make your own playlists etc. I just jumped in for a year @ $20 for their support Japan promotion.

There was one apk that was modded so that you could get the functionality for free. This guy Here also makes a free alternative to the grooveshark app.

blockbuster or netflix

I've been searching the forums can't find. Anything. On. Blockbuster or. Netflix app is there anything on that
I think it was either the galaxy or droid x thats getting a blockbuster app. I believe i even heard something about streaming. Does anyone know if its exclusive to that particular phone or if they are eventually going to release it for all android phones?
i would love a way to stream netflix too.
Netflix is working on an android app. That is all I can say about it.
We will get Netflix... if not I will cancel my membership.

http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/sprint-lines-up-epic-4g-against-the-competition-likes-its-chanc/
notice the bottom it says the epic will have a movie service and the evo will not...
I emailed Blockbuster to ask when they will release an android application since we know it exists on the droid x and they refused to give me an answer as to if or when.

Blockbuster will go bankrupt before an app comes it. Netflix is coming soon. I spoke with one of the top dudes at the company.

Everyone needs to harass these companies till we get the applications, especially Blockbuster because it already exists (I don't know anything about netflix). I imagine the Droid X has an exclusivity contract but it can't last for too terribly long.
Blockbuster is on the market,,, just search for it.
come on Netflix!!

Not to mention that they have to pay for Hulu access. We can get the full Hulu site for free with a little tweaking!

Blockbuster was pulled from the market cause it wasn't formatted for all the phones or carriers yet. Kept fc'ing and not downloading. My guess is whenever netflix comedy out, it'll be awesome.

Netflix instant streaming...

Anyone know if we'll be getting that ability? I know the iphone had it, makes me jealous haha.

Netflix did have a job posting earlier in the year suggesting that they were looking for an Android developer.
http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/netflix-targeting-streaming-for-android-with-latest-job-posting
Rumor has it Netflix will have a streaming Android player soon, hopefully very soon.
For now we'll wait. I wish they just used flash instead of the special plugin they require. If you change ur UA String to desktop and try to stream a movie, it asked you to install their silverlight plugin.

haha wow really. Now i just need an app that sends a message to a satellite and then it sends a laser beam to scratch my ass... (got it from a movie)
Google TV is going to support netflix is it not? and that is just android
I believe the Netflix support is because of GTV has Chrome built-in and has the tools necessary to play it. There's an Android app in dev that targets mobile phones and tablets.
its coming give it a few...im sure it will have a better ui than the one on the iphone.
Soooo amped for this. The "workday" will be so much more fun now...lol

Question about streaming. Does 4G affect streaming audio/video or does it just affect downloading/uploading a file(s)?
Figured this would be a good place to post this, but is there a good Netflix app to just manage my movies and such?
Have you tried PhoneFlicks or QueueMan? I use PhoneFlicks and it works well, I've never used QueueMan but have heard it works well too.

It'ss pulled from appbrain sometime since yesterday. I personally was hoping for a review before I spend $9 on it.
I'm calling BS on that app. For instance, Why does he have it priced at 4.99 and 8.99

I'm wondering if it worked. It was pulled from the market in 24 hours or so.

360 live app gone!

So I paid for the app among how many thousands of other ppl and Microsoft decides it wont allow 3rd party apps to gain access to an account that we the gamer/consumer pay for and google does nothing but pull the app or apps from the market and issues no refunds what the heck is that about ...its not about the money its about the poor business practices and the lack of protection of the consumer

I use an app called XBOX Live Statistics. It's nice because I can see if my friends are online or not, and I can send them XBL messages from my phone. It's a little slow, but worth the load time.
Its the fact all of us who paid for an app can now no longer use it and we got no refund from the dev or google but everyone will cry like babies about pirated software and protecting their work well im saying what's protecting our (the consumer) money.

Absolutely not the devs or Google. Microsoft is at fault here. They disabled access and there was nothing anyone could do about it. Google could have given you the money back but you shouldn't be mad at them.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
I didn't even know about this. I have xbox live statistics. Is the app no longer working? I haven't checked it in a day or so, but have a widget that treks me if I have any messages or how many of my friends are online. This is a real bummer and I hope the consumers show enough outrage that they allow access once again. This affecting other mobile platforms as well?

Yup that's exactly why these apps are useful. No need to keep booting up the Xbox or load the bloated website.
Removing access is not cool at all.
Buy a ps4 like iam going to I was a big xbox fan and I still like my 360 and xbox1 but after 4 POS 360s I will not buy the next xbox! And I did not buy win7 becuz M$ riped us 360 owners off with defetive ****y hardware! M$ really Sucks it all started after Bill gates left

They only pulled it because it cost money. Had it been free it would have stayed. That's their policy on the iPhone app store thus I assume the same thing here

can u refriase that? im confused about what you just said.
I wish I could get these free apps. Why's it limited to U.S?
They are working with the devs of the apps to advertise them for a short while to increase traffic. Once that time frame is up more ppl will know about the app and can then generate more revenue for the developers.

thats what i wanted to know
From what i heard they still give the dev 20% of the cost of the app for every free app. i.e. a $.99 goes free amazon gives dev $.20ish. so the dev's still get a little bit
Are the apps they give away decent or upgradable through the market?
So far I got doodle jump free , shazan encore(4.99) free, dinner dash free , .farm frenzy for free. Not bad. They free and this are good apps .

These apps require you to keep the Amazon app store installed on your device. If you remove Amazon app store the apps you downloaded will no longer work.
I do not know about paid apps but the free ones that are showcased daily will not work if you remove the Amazon app store.
Do you have to put a credit card number to even download a app????

yea you do or u can use amazon giftcard
you must first setup an amazon account using a credit card or paypal. when you install the amazon android store app, it syncs with your amazon account, so you don't store your credit card # or paypal info on your phone
In case anyone wants to keep track...
In case anyone wants to keep track, I put a copy of all the free apps here:

What would happen to the apps if you were to wipe with a ROM change?
Use Titanium backup and restore back.

Oh snap, I did not know that. Good thing I read this before I wiped my phone without any worry of losing anything. I'll have to do a Backup now. Thanks!
your apps are updateable, for free. lol. and since your account is set up with your amazon acct you can wipe and change roms a million times, as soon as you put the app store back on your phone and sign in with your account you can redownload your apps back again, still free.

[Q] What's the best music streaming service for Android?

Hey guys,
So I discovered the music streaming service called "deezer".
It's pretty cool, has a good interface online and as an app and has offline support.
Well so far so good. It costs 10€ per month, which is okay to have me.
Sooo my question is if there is something better out there with a bigger library and better android support
Hope you can give me some advice and recommendations.
Thanks in advance.
