[Q] Transfer paid apps to another account?

I dont know if this is the right place to post this question but here goes
I have a lot of paid apps that I never ever use like beautiful Widgets and launchers and stuff, is there a WY to transfer them to another Google account say my gf so she can have them?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda premium

Possible, but she will not receive any updates. From the time you transfer them, i would imagine that they would be deemed as warez?
Regards

I was hoping to have them linked to her account so she could get updates and it removed from mine, they should have a gift system put on

Not possible as far as I'm aware. But i agree, the gift system is a good idea.

Good idea, but just to remind you, updates will be impossible. But the App shouldn't change a drastic amount anyway.
Then again you could use your backup periodically to update her apps?

Actually, it depends how trusting and honest your relationship is... You can add your account to her phone, since the market allows for account selection now. This would (of course) give her access to your contacts, gmail, etc. But that is the only way I know to do this.

Is this another double post?
If you notice, the qik app you on our phone says 'T-Mobile Video Chat by Qik'.
Try one of these and see if it works...
Try downloading this.
Or this....

Yay... you have successfully flamed ANOTHER user...
Go team, go
Maybe you can get the mod to help clean up some of those threads that hate you so much..

My apologies champ if I hurt your feelings. I gave him links to other qik downloads hoping that made up for pointing out the double post.
There you go champ. Changed my wording in my previous post hoping it is more sensitive for the like of you.

I'm sorry if I double posted, I thought I posted in the wrong section last time and wanted to delete it but couldn't see how, I thought it might require an administrator to delete it.
However, that second link I think is what I need but it's blocked on my market I think because of Tmobile. Can I get the .apk download?

There doesn't seem to be an easy way for you to get the app. My thoughts for you are to either try a third party app market (I haven't done) or go to an at&t phone forum here on XDA and look for the app (I did do and did not find) or download a ROM from the at&t phone forum and see if the .apk is included in the ROM (I did for you also but the 316 meg file was an .exe? so I could not see if the .apk was in there).
Good luck!

but Qik sucks......

I tired to download it on my other phone but it wont. Weird thing is I can see its available on the pc based market but the phone has it blocked.

Right,I think it's got to be something worked out between qik and Tmobile

As you probably know, skype has acquired qik (I think). I can see skype contacts from qik. Maybe you can see qik friends from skype mobile (maybe not... I have not tried).

Thank you for all the help.
Qik may not be the best but it's the only factor alternative for Android.
I got the app and it didn't work, Qik sorry said it was for the tablet after all.

DroidSheep

So, I wanted to install DroidSheep on my phone.
I was wondering how I would do that.
I got the source, opened a text file, pasted it in, then changed the file to a .apk file. Is that right?
And also, does anyone know if DroidSheep works on ICS?
If not, does anyone have an alternative?

There is an apk file attached in the OP, and it should work for ics

What in the world are you going to do with it? Judging from your posting history, I'm sure you're not going to use it as inteded. It's illegal if you get caught using it on someone else's network, and YES, they can find out easily.

haha very easily

Actually, most people won't be able to find out. Every single one of my friends that I used this on had no idea that I did, until I showed them and persuaded them to use better security.
I'm not saying you should use this maliciously, of course, but most people don't even know how to log in to their router, let alone realize that someone is using droidsheep against them.

I'm using it on my own network.... I'm not using it on any one else's network. Why would I want random people's random accounts?

Because the majority of the people here are teenagers, and the majority of teenagers are ass holes.

XDA App

Anyone experiencing problems with xda?
For some reason my post are double posting and pages aren't loading properly. Just wondering if anyone else is having these issues?
Yes I did uninstall and reinstall the app and my connection is fine.

I'm not a dev either but think you might be able to unzip the APK on your computer, replace the icon.png, rezip. then replace apk to phone.

same problem since day 1. i don't know when the last update was but definitely not working for me. Search function is also non-existent.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

Oh yea, the search is horrible. Doesn't even give you the option to search within the thread or for a thread in the section.
That's why there are double post. People search and can't find it, so they post it again and then we have members getting angry about not searching and double posting.
The search, searches the entire site. I don't have time to scroll through 100 threads to find the 1 for our phone.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

Yeah you should be able to search within a device's forum and also within a thread itself that way rom q&a's not stated in op's don't have to be reasked all the time.

Yeah, I have been wanting to ask a question about XDA's notifications, and search on the app was not helpful. I was concerned about making a new thread, then somebody getting down on me for making a duplicate thread.
I could already see the comments, "you should search before you post" "I will not help, because you are lazy" So it goes not getting the help, we request.

Not to mention names but it's the same few members who troll the forms and flame or report everything.
I honestly think that until the search engine for this app is fix that members who flaming for duplicate threads should be ban for a 12 hours. If you think about it, that flame is going to make the thread unless because it will just be a battle between the op and the flameer. Instead of helping out the op as a community or posting the link to the original thread.

some of us actually like using our xda app (search included). paid for it so most people expect it to work. personally, after realizing that the app's search is not working, i almost always try to log in and use xda and google search before asking here.
there is no need to be defensive or sarcastic here. if you feel the need to report then do as you wish but don't expect everyone to like what you are doing. some people are honestly just clueless regarding the search engine.

You're just a big child. You see a post you don't like and cry to your dad (insert name of favorite mod here) and get it shut down. Some new member started a thread and you reported AND flamed him/her. Instead of trying to be a tyrant you should be pointing new members in the right direction. And if someone's phone is not working, you should actually try to help before crying to the mods. You hold the exact same amount of power as any other member. Having more posts or thanks doesn't change the fact that nobody should have to take crap from someone on the same level as them.

And people come here for broken phone fixes because some members actually do help or point in the right direction. If someone's phone isn't working right for whatever reason, don't turn them away just because there's already some large thread on something remotely similar to their problem. Those types of threads don't get users as much help (especially if it's an urgent issue) as a single thread.
It's like if someone was lost on the way driving to Tampa and they asked you for help, and you told them they were noobs for not knowing every detail about the trip before they went on it. And you reported them to have their car towed because they didn't get help from a group talking about how to get to places that are kind of near Tampa.

i had a quick look for you and its as expected, youll have to go on their individual websites and follow their instructions...

sharing apk's are something frowned upon by google and recent updates are doing their best to protect developers and their hard work.
