App for downloading apks? Alternative market?

Just wondering if anyone has heard of such a thing. With all of the issues with protected apps not showing in the market with some roms, it would be neat if there was an app like the Music downloaders, that let you search and download apks.
Some apps poof from market and it would be nice to have a quick way to find them.

Does SlideME work? I used that back in the vogue android days, but I haven't used it since.. That was just a different market app basically

See if any of these work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=536317
I honestly don't know. My protected apps all work. And honestly the only times they haven't is because we were using developers roms. It's all fixed now though, and our official obviously won't have that problem.

Search the market for "APKtor." It's an app that'll let you add repositories filled with android apps. It's essentially Cydia for Android. As far as where to get your repositores, you'll need to figure that much out.

there a few others that i will not post here lol

Appbrain ...

Search google for an app called "black market"..
Then you will have to search for the right repositories.. If you download GMOB chat and go to the rooted users chat someone there will help you out..
*also in GMOB chat there is a room where there is nothing but posted apps, and a request room..

Don't want to steer the thread too far off topic, but is this true for all roms, or just certain ones. I haven't been able to spend much time on the forum the past few days, but if there's a complete fix for protected apps, I'll definitely set aside some time to seek it out...

i honestly havent dl'd anything from the market since my g1, cept to go grab linda and get acess to my sd right away...
anything the market can do, google can do better *singalong voice*
i understand the market is google, but i mean the search engine

fresh rom 2.0d.

Can anyone find Digital Clock Widget v1.8 in the marketplace? Says it's copy protected, but it's a free app. I have v1.7.6 and can't find it to update. Found a website with a zip of v1.8, but it's not signed. I signed it, but it won't install because it says it's missing classes.dex.
Also, flipz, is the market fix available as a standalone update? Currently running DCv2.05

Oh ****! APKtor is god!

Same here..

Anyone have the apk I can grab from them? My rooted EVO can not find it.

I had no problem finding on market on my rooted droid running Froyo

can someone that has this app (tikl) back it up and send it to me?

you have to search for it on the market just like this.. type it exactly like this TiKL and bam there it is.. i found it just fine on my rooted 2.1 ruu sprint CDMA hero

this app is awesome! could use some graphical upgrades and customizable chirps. Love it though! Would be fun to have selectable voices such as AutoTune, Darth Vader, etc...

I'd like to share a rare app with everyone

I've had this apk since I grabbed my Droid on release day, since then I've noticed it's been removed and I find others are seeking it. If anyone would like the ultra-cool Cents Clock(App+Widget) v1.6 - I'll send to anyone upon request.
HINT: If you can't figure out what apk it is simply Google the name and you'll find out everything you need to know about it.
Thanks for allowing me to attach files!

What are you talking about? What name?

Google this
Cents Clock(App+Widget) v1.5 - I don't know if against the rules to share a FREE app that's been removed.
Forgive me it's version 1.6 - added file download up above!.

pm'd you an email address...
Thanks

I sent it, check your inbox

why exactly cant you type "Sense Clock"? Why do you keep leaving the "sense" part out?

I'm not sure if it's against forums rules to share an apk that's been removed because of an C&D order.

im pretty sure it would be

lol whats the name of the app ?

It's posted in #6 post - just a few above this

Sense clock Sense clock Sense clock Sense clock Sense clock Sense clock Sense clock
Sorry, felt like being a rebel today.
I cant imagine saying its name is against the rules, Im sure posting it may be.

thread fail

You're okay to share the app. It's free and you're basically just saying you prefer it over whats given in the stock version of Android and that you'd like people to check it out.
However, if it's a PAID app; then that's different. You can talk about it; but under no circumstances can you POST it here on the forums, unless given consent to do so by the author of app. I see no reason why you should be afraid of stating your opinion about your app choices, continue doing so.

No problem, just didn't want him to feel like he couldn't contribute or what not.
Also, you should take your advice from your signature and brother out.

Cents (good eh?) Clock App+Widget
Could one of the moderators please allow me to attach files to my posts and PM's. I can't put up a working link right now and it would be easier to just include a link to the apk from right here.
Thanks you in advance!
I have tried to send the apk via email to whomever has asked for it - it is NOT A MOD - it is simply an apk that was listed on the Market then removed. Nothing more nothing less.

Download any apk installer from the market. I use easy-installer. Make sure you delete any other versions of netflix before you install the modded apk.

I use Astro File Manager (free app). Dolphin browser (also free app) does great with downloads from the web. I then Open Astro, Use Astro's Search feature to search for "apk" or "netflix", then you can install the APK file from there.

Probably a very stupid question, but can't seem to access the thread for NetFlix App.

Okay, I'm quite sure this is an utterly stupid question, but I've dug around in the FAQ's and the general forums and can't see an answer so I'm going to risk being flamed as a noob to ask. When I try loading the link (above) for the Netflix app, I consistently get a message that I do not have permission to access the page, and that new users (with under 10 posts) aren't permitted to POST to the Devel forums.
I'm not trying to post - just to access the thread, and since it says "To encourage this new Users can read but not post in these forums." I assume that I should be able to view the thread. Am I missing something incredibly stupid and obvious, or doing something wrong, or is it just that you're unable to even view anything in the development-related forums until you have more than 10 posts?
Thanks to anyone who is kind enough to reply and open my eyes on this. If you really want to flame me for being a noob feel free, but it won't bother me any. I know my status, and my limits.
Adios!

Yeah, I hated their noob restrictions. I have uploaded the RED version to SugarSync (like DropBox)
If you want a different color, let me know and I will send it there, too. (using the same link, which links to the Folder, not the file)
https://www.sugarsync.com/share/c0a2jsq50cb47

Thanks ncmacasl, I appreciate it!
The red is fine, that's the version I was looking for anyways. I wouldn't have minded it as much if it were clear that it was part of the noob restrictions, but it seemed like the message was saying two different things so I wasn't sure.
Thanks for the help!

[Q] An annoying problem with Shadowgun.

Hello people.
I have a friend's HTC Inspire 4G, he wanted me to install Shadowgun, which I did. I downloaded the 1.1.0 APK version. When I executed it, it began to download the required data and when it finish I began to play. Everything worked perfect, but when I reset the phone, the game ask me for download the data again... and when I check the
Code:
Android/data/
folder on SD-Card, I can see the Shadowgun data in a
Code:
com.madfinger.shadowgun
I can't remember the exact name. The thing is that folder have 1GB of data... meaning the Shadowgun data is really there. So I have no idea why the game ask me for download again.
Is this a common issue? How do I fix it?
Best regards.

maybe go to the market and redownload a fresh copy, possibly corrupted download?

Dude I said I play the game without problems, however when I reset the phone I ask me to download the data again. I guess if I play it, then it's not corrupted data.

it can still have a file corruption, wasnt trying to be mean to you. just saying its probably the easiest thing to try first before delving deeper into it. i did search around and went through market comments looking for a similar problem and couldnt find any. so that brought me to the conclusion that theres possibly something wrong with the apk. one flipped bit in a file can show at install or it could keep u from viewing the ending of a game.
at first i thought maybe you got the THD version of it but seeing as that one was 1.0.1 and you mentioned you had 1.1.0 that wasnt the case. Got to start somewhere with troubleshooting

Question...where did you download shadowgun from? If you did from the market then try emailing the devs. The contact info will be on the market page for shadowgun.
If you downloaded it from another place, and did it for free, please stop asking for help. That is a paid app. You should not be able to receive help here on xda for paid apps that were pirated.

I know you wasn't mean with be bro, in fact I thank you, certainly you're the only posting here besides me.
OK I know it's not a corrupted APK because in my Galaxy S II (i9100) I have the same APK with the same data, and it goes like heaven, so I don't know.
Thanks again.

I'll try askin the devs, I bought that app, ok?

<Mod Edit> Deleted contents. Condoning Warez, violation of XDA Rules.

If you are having the same issue then why do you need the files? Just download them and back them up yourself.

<Mod Edit. Deleted.>

Take Notice on Warez
I believe this same (edited) post asking for data files, was deleted from the General forum earlier.
And the same outcome. It is strictly against XDA rules, to ask for or condone the practice of sharing PAID Apps. Violations result in infraction points, and ultimately a ban from XDA.
Whether you paid for the app, is not a concern. In this case, your first avenue is the Dev of the program. NOT asking members to upload data files. You KNOW the rules, paid app or not.
I should hope I won't need to post again on this topic.

yeah .. i have same problem..

hi, its my first time here in the forum and i have read your problem with shadowgun.. i have also htc inspire phone installed with shadow gun.. i got this in android.mob.org at first, i downloaded this game in the torrent but i came up with the same problem with you. so here what you are going to do
1. download shadowgun to the mentioned site(put the cache file of the game into any folder of ur device but do not put it directly to sdcard/android/data/ bcoz at first launch it will be deleted)
2. then install apk
3. set your phone to airplane mode
4. then run the game
5. then press begin download (it will show some unknown javascript and let it
6. minimize the game.. do not close
7. copy the the files inside the com.madfingergames.shadowgun folder into the sdcard/android/data there is already a folder there with the same name with that folder.
8. open the minimized game shadowgun and it will now run smoothly
i hope it helped...
